OTC 18: California Zero-Textbook-Cost Degrees Implementation UpdateUna Daly
Planning and early implementation of California Community College Chancellor’s Office (CCCCO) Zero-Textbook-Cost Degrees (ZTCs) program shifted into full-scale implementation in January 2018, with a total of 23 colleges developing full degree and certificate pathways that have eliminate textbook costs for students. ZTCs include two-year associate degrees and career technical education (CTE) certificates that have been redesigned by faculty to use open educational resources or zero-cost materials.
Join us to hear from the leadership driving this program forward. The lead at the state Chancellor’s office will describe the vision of the program and plans for future innovation. Technical assistance providers from College of Canyons and West Hill College Lemoore will share details of the training and evaluation programs supporting the transformational work at the participating colleges. The chair of the statewide Academic Senate OER Task Force will describe the essential role of faculty adoptions in maximizing the impact of ZTC degrees throughout our state.

From OER Adoption to OER Degree Pathways: Why, How, and What’s Next?
A panel of California Community College leaders will share their journey from early OER adoption to development of OER degree pathways. Awareness building, faculty and student engagement, and administrative support have been key success factors in OER adoption, but recent support from the state legislature and the Chancellor’s Office is enabling full Zero-textbook-cost degree pathways to maximize student savings.

Improving Student Success with California Zero-Textbook-Cost Degree Grant Program
In early 2017, the California Community College Chancellor’s Office (CCCCO) awarded 23 college districts funding to plan or create zero-textbook-cost (ZTC) degrees in the continuing effort to improve student access, success, and completion. ZTC degrees consist of an entire pathway of courses culminating in a degree or certificate that have been redesigned by faculty to use open educational resources or zero-cost materials.
Join us to hear from the Chancellor’s office on the vision behind the program and how to apply for the 2nd round of funding to develop additional ZTC degrees. We will also hear from the lead colleges providing statewide technical assistance to ZTC grantees and the work of the statewide Academic Senate OER Task Force to maximize the impact throughout all 113 California community colleges.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
