This paper introduces a doctoral study that aims to provide insight into how students experience ePortfolios as learning in higher education. The paper gives a brief history of the implementation and embedding of ePortfolios in Australian higher education before introducing the research problem, discussing the conceptual framework within which the research will take place and finishing with a detailed explication of the research design. The nature of qualitative interviewing will be briefly explored and the challenge of communicating qualitative research outcomes for quantitative agendas propounded. The session will focus on practical aspects of ePortfolios for learning and suggest research outcomes that may positively impact this practice.

1000 - 1500 word argumentative essay
PROMPT: Is putting yourself first a good approach to life?
FAQ
· How should I get started?
· Have the Personal Responsibility and Critical Thinking Rubrics open in front of you. Your grade will be assessed according to these two rubrics. Scroll down for these rubrics.
· Some questions to ask yourself as you are brainstorming: What does "putting yourself first" mean as you see it? What are the consequences of living this way? How would you describe the opposite of "putting yourself first"? If you had to choose between them, which way of life is better? Do you have to choose between them? If you disagree with your friend who thinks life is about putting oneself first as much as possible whenever possible, how would you persuade your friend that life is not a selfish or self-indulgent pursuit? How do you justify that your own actions are altruistic, and to what end do you pursue acts in the interest of others? Do you do so with the same passion as you do endeavors that fulfill a want or a need in your own life? Once you have entertained the above questions, carve out a thesis statement that states clearly whether or not "put yourself first" is a good approach to life and why.
· Early in your essay, describe how you understand "putting yourself first". It's important to define how you view this way of life before either advocating for it or rejecting it.
· Look up any information that you may need to check your biases. Suppose you intend to argue that rich people get ahead because they do not donate to charity. You might first explore studies to verify whether or not this is true. Who gives more to charity, the rich or the poor?
Have the facts.
· Argue for your thesis throughout your essay.
· Address objections to your position.
· How should this essay relate to Chapter 2?
· When writing this essay, you are not required to discuss the theories of meaning from Chapter 2 unless you find them relevant to "put yourself first". Focus the entirety of your essay on "put yourself first" and direct alternatives to this way of life as you draw upon the "big picture" from Chapter 2, that is the consequences of having a theory of meaning at all.
· In drafting this essay, I recommend that you also read section 8-3 of The Big Questions and the 1000 Word Philosophy link that I have posted below. Scroll, scroll.
· How many sources do I need to cite?
· You
must site some sources. See the Evidence component of the Critical Thinking Rubric. Though there is no minimum number of cited sources beyond our textbook, sometimes you need to refer to other source material in making your argument. Whenever you discuss content that should be backed up with a source, be sure to incorporate accurate sources and cite them.
· What format and style of citation should I use?
Use MLA. Academic philosophers use Chicago Manual. If you continue studies in philosophy, you will learn Chicago Manual; however, fo.

Title
Your first sentence should establish the question that orients the essay, taking
account of any ways in which you may need to modify or refine it. The rest of this
paragraph provides an introduction to the topic. Your introduction should focus on setting
out the topic and scope of the discussion in a way that clearly establishes what exactly
you will be talking about and why it is significant, and provides any necessary context
such as the background, current state of affairs, definitions of key terms, and so on. You
want to try to do this in a way that stays as neutral as possible, avoids controversial
assumptions, rhetorical questions, and the like. In other words, you should try to
construct an introduction to the topic that could be an introduction to a paper defending
any position on the question at issue. Your introduction should include a brief remark
about the kind of theory you will be using to approach this question. The last sentence of
the introduction should briefly summarize the conclusion or position on this issue that
you think is best supported by this theory, and succinctly state what the objection will be.
Theory Explanation
You should explain the core principles or features of either utilitarianism or
deontology and the general account of moral behavior it provides. “You must quote from
at least one Required Resource that defends or represents that theory, drawn from the list
included with the assignment instructions” (Author, YEAR, p. ###). Make sure that you
first understand the theory that you are using, and that you have read the Instructor
Guidance and any additional resources from the Required and Recommended Resources
as needed. If you do not adequately understand and explain the theory, you will not be
able to apply it adequately to the topic. You will need to explain the core principles in

Theory Application
Explain how the core principles or features of this theory apply to the problem or
question under consideration and identify the specific moral conclusion that results. Your
application should clearly show how the conclusion follows from the main tenets of the
theory as explained in the previous paragraph(s). An application involves showing how
general ideas about how to live and act ethically, when combined with the specific
circumstances under consideration, lead to conclusions about how one should act in those
circumstances. A very simple, non-moral example of such reasoning might start with the
general idea that “if I’m hungry, I ought to eat,” apply that to the specific circumstances
in which “I’.

“In order to thrive in the 21st Century, intentional learners should be
empowered through a mastery of intellectual and practical skills, informed
about forms of inquiry, and responsible for their personal actions.”
—J. Doherty and K. Ketchner (2005, p. 1)
Section 4.2Becoming a Critical Thinker
4.1 The Adept Mind
Chapter 3 was devoted to helping you understand how to use metacognition, the learning
techniques known as decoding and FITing, and personalized strategies to become a more
intentional learner. This chapter builds on that knowledge by framing how to use your Learn-
ing Patterns to develop an adept mind.
The adept mind helps you succeed in all areas of life. It is one that makes good decisions and
can discern the difference between fact and fiction. It studies a situation’s complexity, weighs
the facts, examines the logic behind a choice, and determines whether a choice is appropriate.
The adept mind is intentional, stable, and often methodical and always seeks to improve its
efficiency and effectiveness. The adept mind is vital not only to the work of a student, but also
to the experience of being a parent, employee, or volunteer. No matter what you are called
on to do in life, you will need an adept mind to navigate the change you encounter and the
growth you seek.
The adept mind uses the critical skills of thinking, reading, and writing—skills this chap-
ter explores in depth—and uses them with integrity. The word critical is not one students
embrace easily. It has a negative connotation and suggests that someone has found fault with
something you have done. It conjures up images of a scolding voice, red pen marks, or nega-
tive comments. When applied to thinking, reading, and writing, however, the word critical
takes on a different meaning. To be critical means to delve deeper into a topic to better under-
stand, evaluate, and take a position on it. As you will see at the end of the chapter, being criti-
cal also means becoming able to use your research with honesty and originality.
4.2 Becoming a Critical Thinker
When you engage in critical think-
ing, you embark on an ongoing quest
to improve how you think. Thinking
critically requires you to b.

Critical and Analytical ThinkingCritical thinkin.docx
Critical and Analytical Thinking
Critical thinkingWord ‘critical’ has positive and negative meaningsThe word ‘critical’ in academia describes your attitude when reading an article/chapterBeing critical means weighing up the arguments for and against a particular point.
*
Not just the bad parts
How to think criticallyBe persistent – consider an issue carefully more than onceLook at the evidence for a viewpoint – evaluate it – what are they trying to ‘sell’ me?What are the implications of a view point – is it realistic and rational?Knowing facts and what is right is not what academics is aboutIt is important to identify strengths, satisfactory points and weaknesses when being critical – then you must know why this is soYou should be critical when reading, writing and listening
*
Need to fully understand an argument before you can be critical – be confident
Evaluate=what is the value/effectiveness of something, inc. own opinion and supporting each point with evidence
Question the credibility
You are just assessing ideas not learning the answers
Only want informed opinions
Analytical thinkingBeing analytical mean to look deeper into what is being saidDo not take what you read as ‘given’Evaluate what is being argued – do you agree with it?To be analytical is to question what you read
*
Not just reading what is said but ‘thinking’ about it
How to think analyticallyThink about the view point in relation to the bigger picture – stand backCompare the same issue from the point of other authors – do their views differ?Should be able to see why authors have arrived at different conclusionsYou should be able to argue why you think one set of view points is preferable to anotherYou should be analytical when reading, writing and listening
*
Think about your readings together, put into context
You should be asking why a conclusion has been made – need full understanding for this
Barriers to critical and analytical thinkingBeing critical does not just mean criticiseOur reasoning skills are not objective – we are biased ourselvesReluctance to criticise expertsWanting to know what is right and wrongNot reading deeply enough around a subject – surface knowledge
*
Not always black and white there are lots of grey areas in academics
Being analytical and critical is hard work, you have to read carefully and widely
Critical and analytical readingPrepare for critical reading – skim read the introduction and conclusionFind the conclusions first to help clarify the rest of the readingWhat is the underlying argument/ view point?Question hidden agendas or assumptionsTheory can help fill in the gaps – what is theory?
- set of ideas to explain why something happens and predict outcomes in the futureArguments are often based on theory but an argument is not always a theory
Critical and analytical readingWhere is the evidence for a view point?Check references – are they presented accurately and are they credible? - evaluate that evidence –.

MODULE 1 CASE ASSIGNMENTManaging Individual BehaviorAssignment O.docx
MODULE 1 CASE ASSIGNMENT
Managing Individual Behavior
Assignment Overview
The cases in this class follow an experiential approach. This means you will reflect on your own experience in an organization and then apply the concepts from the module materials to
think critically
about these experiences and understand them better. The structure of the course and the assignments follow Kolb’s model of the adult learning process, which is discussed on the
Module 1 Home page
. [If you skipped the Module 1--Home page, you should read it now before you attempt to go any further.]
Case Assignment
Think about an experience you have had where you felt extremely motivated. Then, in a 4- to 6-page paper, analyze this experience according to the Kolb format below. Each subtitle represents a different section of the paper. You can use the subtitles as headings.
Introduction:
Discuss the topic of the paper and how you will approach it. It is best to write this section after you have written the rest of the paper.
Concrete Experience:
Begin with a specific situation/event. Describe the experience where you felt extremely motivated. Be objective and focus on just the facts: who, what, where, when, and how – similar to how a newspaper article is written -- as if you were composing a newspaper article.
Reflective Observation:
Reflect upon that experience from the multiple perspectives of other people involved or affected in the experience. Step back from the situation, look at the experience from your own viewpoint,
and
the viewpoints of all other parties involved or affected. You want to look at the circumstances surrounding the experience from every relevant perspective. Why was the experience motivating to you? What did others do that increased your motivation? Was the situation (or would the situation) also be motivating to others? (Note: Your discussion of theories and models from your module materials belongs in the following section.)
Abstract Conceptualization:
Use critical thinking skills in order to understand and interpret the experience at a deeper, more generalizable level. Interpret and understand the events you have described by drawing on the concepts, theories, and models in the background material from this module. What behavior patterns can you identify in yourself and others that are similar to the ones described in the material on motivation, values, and/or goals? How do these concepts and principles explain
why
you were motivated? What general principles of motivation can you derive from this analysis? Be sure to cite all references to concepts, ideas, and quotes you use that come from any outside source. Be sure to apply
at least
three concepts, theories, and/or models and cite all references to concepts, ideas, and/or quotes that you use from any outside source.
[This Abstract Conceptualization section is the “heart” of your paper. Using critical thinking skills, provide a clear, specific discussion on the logic, theo ...

Eportfolio is an integral part of the implementation of Macquarie University’s award-winning Bachelor of Arts (BA) Transferable Skills Framework (TSF). BA students can directly correlate their academic work to real job requirements - connecting their learning (both inside and outside of the classroom) with career opportunities. The TSF is designed to make explicit connections between coursework and employability skills, assisting students in recognising the capabilities they gain during their educational journey. The ePortfolio tool is intertwined with the coursework, where students can curate a digital showcase of their curricular and other achievements, projects, and competencies. This presentation will narrate the story of integrating an ePortolio and associated pedagogy across the BA. The focus will be on the activities undertaken to ensure a programmatic implementation of an ePortfolio and the lessons learned from the first year of implementation.The journey of implementing the right digital platform for a student-centred,...

"Macquarie University worked with students, academics, and major industry partners including the NSW Government, Accenture, Hays, EY, Deloitte, Adobe, and CBA in reimagining the Bachelor of Arts degree which won the Employability Award at the Australian Financial Review (AFR) Higher Education Awards 2020. The outcome of this voyage resulted in the creation of an innovative, transformative, and capability-driven Transferable Skills Framework that is embodied in the curriculum by integrating lifelong learning aspects with a strong emphasis on pedagogy, employability, and digital fluency.
To deliver these aspects, the University conducted a comprehensive technology landscape assessment which followed an enterprise-level implementation of a digital ePortfolio platform. A digital ecosystem was established by amalgamating ePortfolio technology with education design and employability. In this panel session, the discussion will be centred around the critical aspects of implementing a befitting digital ePortfolio system and ways to leverage it in support of enhancing lifelong learning."Mais conteúdo relacionado

“In order to thrive in the 21st Century, intentional learners should be
empowered through a mastery of intellectual and practical skills, informed
about forms of inquiry, and responsible for their personal actions.”
—J. Doherty and K. Ketchner (2005, p. 1)
Section 4.2Becoming a Critical Thinker
4.1 The Adept Mind
Chapter 3 was devoted to helping you understand how to use metacognition, the learning
techniques known as decoding and FITing, and personalized strategies to become a more
intentional learner. This chapter builds on that knowledge by framing how to use your Learn-
ing Patterns to develop an adept mind.
The adept mind helps you succeed in all areas of life. It is one that makes good decisions and
can discern the difference between fact and fiction. It studies a situation’s complexity, weighs
the facts, examines the logic behind a choice, and determines whether a choice is appropriate.
The adept mind is intentional, stable, and often methodical and always seeks to improve its
efficiency and effectiveness. The adept mind is vital not only to the work of a student, but also
to the experience of being a parent, employee, or volunteer. No matter what you are called
on to do in life, you will need an adept mind to navigate the change you encounter and the
growth you seek.
The adept mind uses the critical skills of thinking, reading, and writing—skills this chap-
ter explores in depth—and uses them with integrity. The word critical is not one students
embrace easily. It has a negative connotation and suggests that someone has found fault with
something you have done. It conjures up images of a scolding voice, red pen marks, or nega-
tive comments. When applied to thinking, reading, and writing, however, the word critical
takes on a different meaning. To be critical means to delve deeper into a topic to better under-
stand, evaluate, and take a position on it. As you will see at the end of the chapter, being criti-
cal also means becoming able to use your research with honesty and originality.
4.2 Becoming a Critical Thinker
When you engage in critical think-
ing, you embark on an ongoing quest
to improve how you think. Thinking
critically requires you to b.

Critical and Analytical ThinkingCritical thinkin.docx
Critical and Analytical Thinking
Critical thinkingWord ‘critical’ has positive and negative meaningsThe word ‘critical’ in academia describes your attitude when reading an article/chapterBeing critical means weighing up the arguments for and against a particular point.
*
Not just the bad parts
How to think criticallyBe persistent – consider an issue carefully more than onceLook at the evidence for a viewpoint – evaluate it – what are they trying to ‘sell’ me?What are the implications of a view point – is it realistic and rational?Knowing facts and what is right is not what academics is aboutIt is important to identify strengths, satisfactory points and weaknesses when being critical – then you must know why this is soYou should be critical when reading, writing and listening
*
Need to fully understand an argument before you can be critical – be confident
Evaluate=what is the value/effectiveness of something, inc. own opinion and supporting each point with evidence
Question the credibility
You are just assessing ideas not learning the answers
Only want informed opinions
Analytical thinkingBeing analytical mean to look deeper into what is being saidDo not take what you read as ‘given’Evaluate what is being argued – do you agree with it?To be analytical is to question what you read
*
Not just reading what is said but ‘thinking’ about it
How to think analyticallyThink about the view point in relation to the bigger picture – stand backCompare the same issue from the point of other authors – do their views differ?Should be able to see why authors have arrived at different conclusionsYou should be able to argue why you think one set of view points is preferable to anotherYou should be analytical when reading, writing and listening
*
Think about your readings together, put into context
You should be asking why a conclusion has been made – need full understanding for this
Barriers to critical and analytical thinkingBeing critical does not just mean criticiseOur reasoning skills are not objective – we are biased ourselvesReluctance to criticise expertsWanting to know what is right and wrongNot reading deeply enough around a subject – surface knowledge
*
Not always black and white there are lots of grey areas in academics
Being analytical and critical is hard work, you have to read carefully and widely
Critical and analytical readingPrepare for critical reading – skim read the introduction and conclusionFind the conclusions first to help clarify the rest of the readingWhat is the underlying argument/ view point?Question hidden agendas or assumptionsTheory can help fill in the gaps – what is theory?
- set of ideas to explain why something happens and predict outcomes in the futureArguments are often based on theory but an argument is not always a theory
Critical and analytical readingWhere is the evidence for a view point?Check references – are they presented accurately and are they credible? - evaluate that evidence –.

MODULE 1 CASE ASSIGNMENT
Managing Individual Behavior
Assignment Overview
The cases in this class follow an experiential approach. This means you will reflect on your own experience in an organization and then apply the concepts from the module materials to
think critically
about these experiences and understand them better. The structure of the course and the assignments follow Kolb’s model of the adult learning process, which is discussed on the
Module 1 Home page
. [If you skipped the Module 1--Home page, you should read it now before you attempt to go any further.]
Case Assignment
Think about an experience you have had where you felt extremely motivated. Then, in a 4- to 6-page paper, analyze this experience according to the Kolb format below. Each subtitle represents a different section of the paper. You can use the subtitles as headings.
Introduction:
Discuss the topic of the paper and how you will approach it. It is best to write this section after you have written the rest of the paper.
Concrete Experience:
Begin with a specific situation/event. Describe the experience where you felt extremely motivated. Be objective and focus on just the facts: who, what, where, when, and how – similar to how a newspaper article is written -- as if you were composing a newspaper article.
Reflective Observation:
Reflect upon that experience from the multiple perspectives of other people involved or affected in the experience. Step back from the situation, look at the experience from your own viewpoint,
and
the viewpoints of all other parties involved or affected. You want to look at the circumstances surrounding the experience from every relevant perspective. Why was the experience motivating to you? What did others do that increased your motivation? Was the situation (or would the situation) also be motivating to others? (Note: Your discussion of theories and models from your module materials belongs in the following section.)
Abstract Conceptualization:
Use critical thinking skills in order to understand and interpret the experience at a deeper, more generalizable level. Interpret and understand the events you have described by drawing on the concepts, theories, and models in the background material from this module. What behavior patterns can you identify in yourself and others that are similar to the ones described in the material on motivation, values, and/or goals? How do these concepts and principles explain
why
you were motivated? What general principles of motivation can you derive from this analysis? Be sure to cite all references to concepts, ideas, and quotes you use that come from any outside source. Be sure to apply
at least
three concepts, theories, and/or models and cite all references to concepts, ideas, and/or quotes that you use from any outside source.
[This Abstract Conceptualization section is the “heart” of your paper. Using critical thinking skills, provide a clear, specific discussion on the logic, theo ...

Eportfolio is an integral part of the implementation of Macquarie University’s award-winning Bachelor of Arts (BA) Transferable Skills Framework (TSF). BA students can directly correlate their academic work to real job requirements - connecting their learning (both inside and outside of the classroom) with career opportunities. The TSF is designed to make explicit connections between coursework and employability skills, assisting students in recognising the capabilities they gain during their educational journey. The ePortfolio tool is intertwined with the coursework, where students can curate a digital showcase of their curricular and other achievements, projects, and competencies. This presentation will narrate the story of integrating an ePortolio and associated pedagogy across the BA. The focus will be on the activities undertaken to ensure a programmatic implementation of an ePortfolio and the lessons learned from the first year of implementation.The journey of implementing the right digital platform for a student-centred,...

"Macquarie University worked with students, academics, and major industry partners including the NSW Government, Accenture, Hays, EY, Deloitte, Adobe, and CBA in reimagining the Bachelor of Arts degree which won the Employability Award at the Australian Financial Review (AFR) Higher Education Awards 2020. The outcome of this voyage resulted in the creation of an innovative, transformative, and capability-driven Transferable Skills Framework that is embodied in the curriculum by integrating lifelong learning aspects with a strong emphasis on pedagogy, employability, and digital fluency.
To deliver these aspects, the University conducted a comprehensive technology landscape assessment which followed an enterprise-level implementation of a digital ePortfolio platform. A digital ecosystem was established by amalgamating ePortfolio technology with education design and employability. In this panel session, the discussion will be centred around the critical aspects of implementing a befitting digital ePortfolio system and ways to leverage it in support of enhancing lifelong learning."Use of GitHub for Eportfolios Elnaz Tadayon

The Digital Ethics ePortfolio Task Force for the Association for Authentic, Experiential, & Evidence-Based Learning (AAEEBL) continued to bring together international ePortfolio scholars and practitioners to establish research-based digital practices for ePortfolio stakeholders, including institutions, students, educators, and administrators. Phase one developed an online interactive resource, Digital Ethics Principles in ePortfolios: Version 1, which outlines strategies, scenarios, and resources around ten principles. This second iteration adds additional principles related to ePortfolio evaluation practices; practices that encourage diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging; and visibility of labour. In Digital Ethics Principles in ePortfolios: Version 2, revisions to the original ten principles integrate information regarding eProfessionalism and legal issues that can intersect with ePortfolio practice. The original online visual interface has also been upgraded. This expanded version of the principles document continues to articulate explicit and applicable practices relevant to ePortfolio creators, educators, platform creators, and administrators of programs and institutions with ePortfolio requirements.An exploration of third year BA Culinary and Gastronomic Science student expe...

The benefits of reflective practice and eportfolio based learning are widely acknowledged in the literature, however, little work has evaluated its impact vis-à-vis a Culinary Arts curriculum. Therefore, the aim of this study was to explore third year BA Culinary and Gastronomic Science student experiences of developing a reflective practice eportfolio at Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology. A mixed method approach, using convenience sampling was implemented. Semi-structured interviews were held with experts in the field of eportfolio based learning and reflective practice in Ireland. Participants were voluntarily surveyed, to gather information on their experiences of developing a reflective practice eportfolio. The results highlighted tangible opportunities and barriers for undertaking a reflective practice eportfolio for the participants. Eportfolio based learning is rooted in a complex pedagogy, and its potential can only be realised if the processes underlying reflective practice are properly understood by all stakeholders. It’s imperative that the purpose of the reflective practice eportfolio is clearly defined, requirements are communicated, digital capabilities are measured. and training is delivered, rubrics are created, exemplars are shared, and support is provided, in order for it to be successfully adopted. Positive results depends on successful implementation.Digital ethics and portfolios: What's next? Kristina Hoeppner Megan Haskins
Over the last two years, the AAEEBL Digital Ethics Task Force explored principles of digital ethics and how they relate to portfolio work and can be integrated into portfolios. In this conversation, the Task Force wants to explore with participants what practical implementations of the principles can look like, discuss possible research topics and collaborations, and where to go next with this topic. Establishing the principles was the first step in an effort to raise awareness about digital ethics in portfolios and support students, academics, researchers, staff, institutions, and also portfolio platform creators to come together, discuss often difficult topics around digital ethics, and how to improve on our current practices.

ePortfolio practice focuses on reflective pedagogies and iterative submissions of student assessment responses. Students are encouraged to store learnings in their ePortfolio to showcase their strengths to different audiences. Innovations in practice come and go depending on buy-in and resource allocation. Once again, the world is significantly changing and the ‘new’ future of post COVID-19 remains ambiguous. In this paper, we propose a paradigm shift that facilitates a dialogic process around the collection of feedback a student receives in their ePortfolio. The design of an assessment regime sets the stage for active student participation in curating their individual feedback from self, peers, educators or industry. The aim of this process is for students to get a personalised reconstruction of their learning progress, through collaborative and social learning opportunities. In this paper we will offer further explanation of how this paradigm impacts practice in today’s digital era.Eportfolio Ireland – Eportfolio Insights

Student-Led, Individually-Created Courses (SLICCs) are a scalable and flexible experiential learning and assessment framework using an e-portfolio, awarding academic credit for experiential learning. The framework is based on five learning outcomes that students contextualise for themselves, with support from within the framework and feedback from faculty. These learning outcomes are stratified across the academic levels, through pre-honours, honours, masters, to professional doctorate. The framework provides the flexibility for faculty to offer boundaries to the learning experience, or for students to entirely define their own experience, bringing the extra-curricular into the formal curriculum. SLICCs are supported by a small team, and a comprehensive array of resources for students, tutors, faculty and administrators (more information available at http://www.ed.ac.uk/sliccs). SLICCs are now becoming well-established across the University of Edinburgh, with more than 20 courses using the framework, and there is increasing interest from other institutions in viewing and adopting the approach.2021 Eportfolio Shark Tank

"The coronavirus pandemic has dramatically changed the landscape of higher education. Over a short period of time, courses have moved online with students being required to adapt to new ways of learning.
Although many tools have been used to enhance the student learning experience, many researchers have long advocated a more holistic, personal, and integrative approach. As eloquently presented by Jenson and Treuer (2014), learning should be put in a much broader context where courses, co-curricular activities, internships, work, and personal experiences, contribute to what are called 20th century lifelong learning skills (collecting, self-regulating, reflecting, integrating, and collaborating).
The Pandemic ePortfolio is an illustration of this more integrative approach using Karuta 3.0, a simple and flexible open source ePortfolio tool supported by the Apereo Foundation. See how a simple yet powerful workflow has been designed to help students make sense of this difficult period.

"A pre-service teacher education course has a dual purpose. It provides future teachers with the knowledge they require to teach, but it also must also serve to transform the student and enable them to become the teacher. This change of identity is not a sudden transition that happens when a student graduates, rather it needs to be embedded from the start of the course and then progressively developed throughout the learning journey.
This presentation describes how PebblePad workbooks are used in a curriculum content unit to scaffold students to write, speak and think as teachers. The workbooks contain assessment tasks with sequenced response pages containing guiding questions, hints and modelled construction. The tasks progress from simple to complex across the unit and include many opportunities for the student to practice the skills needed to develop their identity as a teacher. "
Portfolio Thinking: It Takes a Village Jacqui Patten
Moving from a paper-based nursing clinical placement tool to an online portfolio platform was not without its challenges. In the School of Nursing and Midwifery at Edith Cowan University a whole of school approach was adopted that incorporated not only the 3000 plus student body but academics, professional staff, and clinical placement administrators. This resulted in rewards that were seen and felt way beyond the technology used to support it. The adage 'It Takes a Village' was never truer in overcoming the challenges faced, however, ultimately determined the success of this story and ability to showcase the student learning journey.

The shift to a physically distanced yet digitally connected campuses in response to COVID-19 has rendered visible the criticality of student-led technologies to engender a sense of community and belonging among students. This paper addresses the social and pedagogical value of ePortfolios in building a sense of belonging within in Higher Education by investigating synergies between well-established ePortfolio pedagogies and the cross-disciplinary fields of digital placemaking and innovative learning environment design. It addresses the need to create critical digital pedagogical models that are agnostic to the physical constraints of campus spaces and identify the utility of space as a heuristic for improved learning outcomes and increasing learner agency and belonging among scholarly communities of peers. Finally, the paper offers insights into spatiality for learning and belonging that achieve a balance of constructively aligned digital spaces while affording opportunities for student agency, ownership and belonging to community in the digital realm.

Within minutes, individuals with basic technological skills (i.e. users of MS Office, internet browsers, and email applications) can author and share media-rich documents including hyperlinks, embedded discussions, videos, and/or audio-recordings. In the last two years, OB3 has been used to build ePortfolios for reflective practice in an MBA programme, and professional certification in a Midwifery programme. During the workshop, attendees will learn how to build an OB3 reflective practice portfolio. They will learn how to 1) capture their thoughts in writing, audio recordings, video, photos, hyperlinks, etc. to reflect on development areas; 2) keep private and personal records of their reflections as they happen; 3) email content and any attachments from their mobile devices directly to their portfolio; and 4) share selected sections of their reflections with other people as part of a course or co-creation for understanding project.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic Imperative
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
