With the goal of promoting genuine equity and inclusion, we are 100% committed to Open Educational Resources (OER) both in the content provided and in the contributions that the digital intro community will make. We are excited to share current resources and hope to have many more on the way!

Many instructors first thought is how much time they would have to spend teaching the technology instead of content to students. When using data, we are making versions in Tableau. Super easy. Also, many of the projects aren’t data oriented. Students can use power point, Adobe Spark or Canva, all tools they have been exposed to or can pick up easily. Some of our more interesting projects can be done with Power Point. https://digitalintro.wescreates.wesleyan.edu/the-brain-through-visual-mnemonics/

You are welcome and encouraged to share these materials widely. Please email me if you would like to be added to the Digital Intro Google group to receive updates and resources. Kristin.flaming@gmail.com

We will provide updates through the Passion-Driven Statistics Community page on LinkedIn. Please join is there! https://www.linkedin.com/groups/8562708/.

This resource is a digital learning & content continuum created by Nicole Fuerst for Alaska's DTi Network members to use as an education and professional development tool.

A Digital Project Preservation Plan is designed to help with organizing preservation efforts for digital projects. Initially drafted as a companion guide meant to fill the gap on best methods for preserving digital scholarship or digital humanities projects, it can also be applied to digital projects outside the humanities. This preservation plan is most beneficial to those digital humanities (DH) project creators who need guidance on how to start a digital project with preservation in mind. Although the DH community has shared resources and case studies, the examples available tend to focus on DH development, and less on DH preservation. These resources are also located in disparate locations. The Digital Project Preservation Plan is a singular guide, focusing on DH preservation, as a starting point with references to more resources and related DH practices. This is a working document, available to practitioners in whole or part; ideally, it will be used in the early stages of project planning and consulted and revised regularly. The preservation infrastructure should be designed and built as a collaborative effort from the beginning of the project. As priorities, methods and technologies change, the preservation plan will need to be updated and modified accordingly.

This book has been used in humanities (history) and media courses but is applicable to any course that has digital/web project components.

The Table of Contents for this publication includes:
Summary, Project Charter, Digital File Inventory, Additional Considerations, Preservation Plan-A Summary and Checklist, References/Plan Resources, Appendix A: Project Charter, Appendix B: Digital File Inventory, Appendix C: Project Profile, Appendix D: Collaborators Web Publishing Agreement, Appendix E: Universal Design Checklist, Appendix F: Preservation Guidance Checklist, and the Glossary.

This website on digital storytelling has been created as a resource for those who would like to pursue digital storytelling for educational, personal, or collaborative purposes. You will find links to a variety of resources that will help you get started.

Helping educators use digital tools for remote and hybrid learning

Easy-to-use guides crafted by teacher librarians to help K12 educators select, understand, and use commonly-adopted digital learning tools in Washington State

This project, which started in May 2021, has a duration of two years ending last April 2023.
DITMEP project aims to improve manufacturing learning, in particular Risk Prevention courses, generating digital capabilities on the methodology (through e-learning, gamification and augmented reality experiences) for educators and trainees. This supports and helps the transformation of manufacturing training aftermath of COVID-19.
DITMEP has developed these blended courses for risk prevention with digital capabilities, in a transnational format solution for an innovative and reinforced education on composites manufacturing, which can be easily replicated at other sectors.
The DITMEP project consortium is composed of 5 partners, from 3 different EU countries (Germany, Spain, Portugal). Partners come from the training center, university and certifier sectors to cover all aspects of training course development.
The main objectives of the project are:
• Training course deployment in an e-learning platform with a core syllabus on Risk Prevention and Health, prepared for its adaptation to the specific countries regulation.
• Deployment of a common gamification methodology for Risk Prevention training modules
• AR mobile application development to support 2 series of learning experiences proposed as part of the core training (virtual spaces signalisation and emergency drills).
• To reinforce learners and teachers with digital capabilities: guides on how to use the materials, how to complement in-presence teaching and to develop on-line trainings.
• Tools and methodology evaluation through pilot training implementations (in all 3 countries) with included tests for evaluation the procedures from the teachers/learners.
Despite the corona pandemic, work in all work packages was able to start in May 2021. The fact that the topic of "digitization" has become extremely central nowadays motivates all project partners and shows that our research project has gained relevance again. The digital tools developed in this project will help to continue to provide high-quality training in the future.
Our training course "Prevention of occupational hazards in composite manufacturing” consists of the two blocks "General Risks" and "Specific Risks in Composite manufacturing". The first block is divided into 3 units, the second block is divided into 5 units. Each unit will have its own theoretical part in which the trainee has to build up his knowledge. What you have learned can be applied in the practical part. For our “Personal Safety Equipment” and “Signalization” units, the practical part consists of AR tools, which we developed as part of the project.
The theoretical part has been completed and translated into the respective languages of the consortium members (English, Spanish, German and Portuguese). All learning material are available on a Moodle platform and downloadable. The Moodle platform, the AR tools and the entire training course have been validated in pilot tests

This presentation offers resources and strategies to encourage the use of digital and environmental approaches to teaching World History including the use of contemporary and historical maps to foster spatial reasoning skills; assigning students to create interactive maps and virtual globes; and using visualization tools that show environmental change over time.

This short document gives you an overview of what the activity "group puzzle" is and how to plan using such an activity during a video conference with breakout rooms. The resource is available in German and is aimed at teachers in higher education. 

El concepto de innovación educativa resulta cada día más ambiguo e impreciso por la falta de claridad en cuanto a concretar si estamos hablando de acciones y proyectos puntuales o por el contrario nos referimos a una dinámica que se genera en el seno de la comunidad de aprendizaje. Esa es la razón clave que nos lleva a plantearnos la necesidad de indagar sobre este tema.Nuestro objetivo es contribuir a generar esa dinámica de innovación sostenible en los centros educativos de manera que desde la respuesta que cada claustro da a las necesidades del alumnado surjja la vivencia de la innovacion. Para ello ha sido muy importante construir una fundamentación teórica que da soporte a la herramienta que hemos ccreado y utilizado para la recogida de información.Resulta complicado resumir los resultados por ser una investigación centrada en la narrativa, el discuro y la identidad de cada centro en torno a la innovación, sin embargo, podemos recoger que la utilización de la rúbrica construida, nos ha permitido realizar una propuesta de rasgos que pueden ser considerados claves para la sostenibilidad de la innovación.Y, finalmente, señalar que las conclusiones significan una puerta abierta para seguir indagando sobre el tema de la innovación educativa desde la vivencia que tiene lugar en cada uno de los centros educativos.

The purpose of this resource is to use a land cover type map to make environmentally sound decisions.

Increase retention by 29-42% develop higher-order thinking skills and enable students to see and conceptualize visuals clearly. Benefits of Visual Learning:1. Visual Learner pick up written information quickly2. They Love to read3. Visual learners are quite fast reading as they kmow all and most of the vocabulary e.g. They can find the work in the dictionary if they know the spelling4. Frequently visula students appear to day dream

This is a syllabus for the Leadership Masterclasses designed for the Honours Master Programme, University of Groningen (the Netherlands).

The main aim of the Masterclass is to challenge students to test their own ideas on the relationship between leadership and innovative thinking and dissidence. By the end of the Masterclass, students will be able to:

▪ Understand and explain the role of innovative thinking and dissidence in producing and progressing different fields of research;
▪ Analyse and assess the role of inter-cultural understanding in making leadership decisions;
▪ Value interdisciplinary approaches in tacking global challenges;
▪ Critically reflect on how to apply these insights to their own future professions.

The Masterclass has a concrete compass: the students study, by way of example, the work of Judge and Professor at the University of Groningen Bert Röling who introduced new ways to look at international law and created news fields of interdisciplinary research.

Overview:
This document will support teachers in the design and adaptation of weekly lessons for distance learning implementation. It is open for public use. The guidance and weekly assignment templates can be used with CTEOnline.org lessons and projects and/or customized for a teacher’s existing curriculum. For CDE guidance on distance learning visit: https://www.cde.ca.gov/ls/he/hn/distancelearning.asp For CTE specific resources vist: https://www.cde.ca.gov/ci/ct/dl/
Advice:
Remember, “less is more”. Pick your 3 favorite tech tools max. Once you pick your tools, stick to them. Pick tools that are familiar to your students, whenever possible. Create or locate a 'how to' video to share with students who may need help. Also remind them of the help features of software.

Variability and Accessibility in Distance Learning:
Options for delivery and format. Always provide alternatives to video and online resources so content is available for students with and without technology access. Work with your district to identify specific distance learning strategies, accommodations, and modifications for Special Education.

ISTE and New America interviewed district and state leaders, who shared key takeaways from their experiences with using PreK-12 open educational resources (OER).

This is a list of resources to help promote diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts at schools and college. This curation of resources was first developed for the "Closing the Achievement" gap Professional Day held at Middlesex Community College's all-college Professional Day held in spring 2014. This resource is being updated by member's of Middlesex Community College of Massachusetts "Leading for Change" group which is associated with the Leading for Change Higher Education Diversity Consortium which is " a voluntary collaboration of higher education institutions in Massachusetts and New England committed to identifying student and employee diversity best practices through uniform and transparent use of data, institutional benchmarks and reflective practice."

In this activity, students squeeze a tennis ball to demonstrate the strength of the human heart. Working in teams, they think of ways to keep the heart beating if the natural mechanism were to fail. The goal of this activity is to get students to understand the strength and resilience of the heart.

Doceri is an app that allows students to look over the things they did in class to help them re-learn or study for tests.
