SUMMARY:AHEAD Conference 2022: Safe Haven or Stormy Port? Exploring how tertiary education design impacts our health
DESCRIPTION:The conference will focus on a number of key themes and areas highlighting the variety of elements involved in creating a positive and student centric tertiary education experience for all students. These themes have been influenced by outcomes of the ongoing work and discussions of the AHEAD/USI Students with Disabilities Advisory Group 2020/21. Group members have frequently cited over-assessment\, assessment bunching\, the lack of flexibility afforded to them and inaccessibility of learning materials/practices as significant causes of anxiety and stress.

SUMMARY:Building a Community of Inquiry Online: Deepening Student Experiential Learning
DESCRIPTION:This interactive workshop introduces participants to the process of creating meaningful collaborative online student learning experience through targeted teaching presence\, underpinned by the educational Community of Inquiry (ECoI) framework (Garrison et al.\, 2000). ECoI will be used to first address course design and then course implementation (Swan et al.\, 2014). Tools including guided reflection and questioning instructional methods will be used to consider how a balance of direct instruction and facilitation (Nasir et al.\, 2018) can help guide learners’ written or audio-recorded reflections based on assigned readings and personal experience. Discipline specific questioning methods will be used to consider how learner reflections can be challenged through the inquiry lens\, thereby moving away from superficial discussion responses to more meaningful dialogue and engagement with tutor and peers\, ultimately leading to greater learning outcomes (Hambacher et al.\, 2018). Examples of both individual and group inquiry activities will help participants consider the optimum level of online teacher presence and influence. This approach can help build a community of inquiry\, where learners reply to the teacher and/or peer questions through dialogue\, modelling and facilitation (Liu\, 2018). This thinking-encouraging approach is effective in engaging and challenging online learners\, reinforced by an iterative peer feedback loop as a scalable intervention (Fillusa et al.\, 2018). Considerations include scaffolding\, instructional design\, and understanding students’ comfort level with collaborative online work (Robinson et al.\, 2017). Examples of how rubrics can be built to map learner inquiry skill development to programme assignments will form part of the workshop.

SUMMARY:Yes\, You Can! How to Successfully Contribute to the EDEN Conference
DESCRIPTION:This interactive webinar is designed to show that “Yes\, you can” submit a paper for this year’s annual EDEN conference (18-20 June). We begin by introducing participants to the overarching conference theme of “Yes\, we can” and five related sub topics. News is also shared of our exciting keynote and spotlight speakers and how they will contribute to the conference theme. The main part of the webinar is then designed to offer prospective authors and presenters an inside track on the different paper categories and how to successfully prepare their own conference submission. Members of the conference team share key tips and advice on what makes a great conference paper and how you can ensure your submission is accepted for the Dublin conference. This advice will be particularly helpful for doctoral students and those relatively new to preparing conference submissions. Finally\, members of the local team offer practical information on the conference venue and provide travel and accommodation advice to help enhance your visit to Dublin. There will be an opportunity for participants to ask questions relevant to the conference throughout the webinar.

SUMMARY:Beyond Belonging: Creating Online and Blended Spaces for First-Generation Students to Flourish
DESCRIPTION:Although first-generation students—those first in their families to pursue higher education—comprise a sizable portion of gateway (or general education) course enrollment\, little\, if any\, attention has been given to the pedagogical approaches that might be used to meet the needs of this diverse student population (Baldwin et al.\, 2021). This webinar will focus on strategies and approaches that can be used to go beyond belonging to create inclusive academic experiences for first-generation students.\nThe webinar will begin with a focus on existing research on (and with relevance to) first-generation students and their academic experience (e.g.\, Baldwin et al.\, 2021)\, including contemporary research on levels of “first-generationness” (Darrah\, Humbert\, & Stewart\, 2022)\, and theoretical frameworks (e.g.\, Yosso’s Community Cultural Wealth Model\, 2005). Information about gateway courses and the gateway course impact on students identifying as first generation will also be discussed. This part of the presentation will include several reflective questions aimed at helping participants understand the nuances associated with first-generation student identities.

SUMMARY:Open Education Week 2023 – “What Is the Future of Open Education?”
DESCRIPTION:In this panel session with policymakers and experts on open\, online and distance education we will reflect on the present situation regarding open education. Open education is a philosophy\, a way of carrying out education with the aim to widen access and participation to everyone by removing barriers and making learning accessible\, abundant\, and customisable for all. Open education is becoming ever more important in European higher education and on the global level as well due to the fact that digital technologies are one of the main driving forces behind education modernisation. So\, why do we still need to discuss the benefits of open education? How pandemic\, AI developments (especially chat GPT) and all other issues in the context of open education affected open education in a good or poor way? How can we make open education more visible and actual and did it become mainstream? We do have numerous examples of best practices\, great projects on open education\, initiatives\, documents and policies. Nevertheless\, numerous teachers are still unaware of open educational resources and open educational practices and educational institutions do not implement the principles of openness in education or research. Join us and share your views on this topic.
