The Spinning of the Micro-credential: A Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing?

Mark Brown

The document discusses micro-credentials and their growth. It begins by looking at why micro-credentials are becoming popular, such as for lifelong learning, employability, and equity goals. It then defines what a micro-credential is, distinguishing between different types based on factors like credit-bearing status and bundling. Finally, it examines how institutions have implemented micro-credentials, such as through sole institution programs, partnerships, and special purpose awards. The presentation ends by cautioning that micro-credentials should support broader educational goals rather than being a goal in themselves.

Overview of Micro-credential Implementation: Running to Catch a Moving Train

Mark Brown

Professor Mark Brown gave a keynote on micro-credential implementation at MicroCredX. He summarized the state of the literature on micro-credentials and identified three main issues. First, micro-credentials are being positioned for lifelong learning and employability but challenges remain regarding capacity, demand from small employers, and demonstrating benefits. Second, common business models being used include sole institutional models and partnerships. Third, gaps remain regarding the reality of implementation versus claims, meeting demand versus increasing supply, and understanding real benefits versus reported benefits. Brown concluded by emphasizing the need for institutions to adapt to changing needs rather than waiting passively.

Digital Queensland

This document describes four scenarios for the digital marketplace for Queensland government services in the year 2025. It characterizes the scenarios based on two axes: the extent of digital immersion (deep to shallow) and the extent of institutional change (substantial to limited). The four scenarios are: 1) Heritage, 2) New Order, 3) Turbocharge, and 4) Stargate. The document provides examples to illustrate different points along the axes, such as the exponential growth of data and computing power to depict a deep level of digital immersion, and the rise of new platform economies and need for organizational redesign to depict a substantial level of institutional change.

The OERu: sharing, collaborating and educating

witthaus

This document discusses the potential for open educational resources (OER) and online learning to provide universal access to higher education. It outlines how OER began with early initiatives like MIT's OpenCourseWare and the UK Open University's OpenLearn platform. Enrollments increased, showing demand for open models. The OER movement grew through collaborations and the Cape Town Declaration. Recent projects like the UKOER and TOUCANS study explore using OER across institutions for accredited degrees through the proposed OER university (OERu). While challenges remain around curriculum, assessment, accreditation and business models, open education could help the 100 million adults unable to afford traditional university achieve higher education.

Why the focus on Micro-credentials?

Mark Brown

Micro-credentials are becoming increasingly popular due to demands from employers and students for flexible, affordable, and specialized learning opportunities. While some see micro-credentials as a fad, proponents argue they can support lifelong learning goals by providing credentials for individual skills and competencies. Recent studies show growing interest from employers in candidates who earn micro-credentials to supplement their formal degrees.

Micro-credential Magic Fairy-dust or Star-dust?

Mark Brown

This document discusses micro-credentials and their increasing focus and use around the world. It defines micro-credentials as proofs of learning outcomes acquired from short learning experiences that have been assessed against transparent standards. Micro-credentials are being used for both credit-bearing and non-credit bearing purposes and can be formal or informal. Their focus is growing due to demands for flexible lifelong learning opportunities from both learners and employers. The document also notes micro-credentials are being used globally and provides examples from places like New Zealand, Australia and Canada. It concludes by saying micro-credentials should support broader learning goals and ideas rather than being a goal themselves.

Digital Education Ecology: Possible | Probable | Preferred | Futures

It also looks at quality assurance initiatives and gaps in digital education quality. Finally, it considers what the future may hold for digital education, including new quality guidelines and potential benchmarking groups.

The Unfinished Micro-credential Canvas: Are We Mixing Oil and Water?

Mark Brown

This document summarizes a presentation on micro-credentials given by Professor Mark Brown of Dublin City University. It discusses: 1. Sketching the global landscape of micro-credentials offered by universities, employers, and MOOC providers. 2. Outlining different business models such as sole institution models and partnerships. 3. Identifying gaps between the state of research and reality regarding benefits, demand, and supply of micro-credentials. It calls for more data on outcomes. The presentation concludes by acknowledging the challenges in mixing traditional credentials with new micro-credentials, but suggests this could be achieved through innovative approaches, as with the invention of mayonnaise allowing oil and water to mix.

This document summarizes a keynote address about rethinking educational research in the 21st century. It discusses how knowledge is no longer a linear progression but a discontinuous process of disruption and starting over. It also discusses how learning is an emergent property of complex systems, in which embodied minds transform information through social and dialogical activity. Finally, it concludes that a semiotic perspective can provide insights into how interpretive systems transform information into knowledge through learning.

What is Digital Transformation?

Mark Brown

The document discusses digital transformation using metaphors of caterpillars becoming butterflies. It provides quotes that analogize digital transformation done correctly to a caterpillar transforming beautifully into a butterfly, but done incorrectly resulting in just a hungry caterpillar. Another quote suggests digital transformation takes a more meandering path like a butterfly's flight rather than a direct bullet path. A final quote indicates that to undergo digital transformation, one must be willing to give up their prior form or self like a caterpillar becoming a butterfly.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP

RAHUL

This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade. The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization, population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different 'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the land. The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover. Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface, providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and diverse human activities. Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems 9 Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can occur natural.
