💙🩵 Como não escutar e prestar atenção? "The University of Lisbon and the UNESCO Representation in Brazil, within the scope of the UNESCO Futures of Education Chair, hold a series of conferences on education with the participation of some of the main experts in the field. The Futures of Education Conference Series includes #seven #meetings, which will be broadcast online on the UNESCO channel in Brazil on YouTube. In this #fourth #meeting, participate the neuroscientist from the University of Southern California, António Damásio."

What does Studying LSM program at University of Applied sciences mean? It's about breaking away from the conventional academic approach. Instead of just absorbing theories from textbooks, it's all about practical application. In this program, you dive into projects and assignments where you directly apply what you learn in class. Hands-on learning at its finest! #HTWberlin #lifesciences #AppliedLearning Watch now: https://lnkd.in/ehRKqPKH

#CallforPapers📢 TPDL 2025: The 29th International Conference on Theory and Practice of Digital Libraries 📆 23-26 September 2025 📍 Tampere, Finland ⚠️ Submission deadline: 30 April 2025 ℹ️ Conference website: https://buff.ly/4fakobt TPDL is an international forum focused on Digital Libraries, Document Analysis/Recognition, and Information Retrieval and their associated technical, practical, and social issues. The conference encompasses the many meanings of the term digital libraries, embracing the whole spectrum of the #GLAM (Gallery, Library, Archive, and Museum) community; information access and operational information systems with all manner of digital content; new means of selecting, collecting, organizing, distributing, and accessing digital content; and theoretical models of information media, including document genres and electronic publishing.

While not all actors are teachers, all teachers are, to some extent, actors. - Understanding the varied POVs. - Adapting teaching methods to best align with the current knowledge of the students, while avoiding the introduction of biases to which they might cling. - Delivering content in a manner that allows students with varying levels of understanding and knowledge to derive benefit from the same lecture. - Recognizing that what is trivial for a teacher may be complex or confusing for students, and therefore conveying information effectively based on what the students need to know, rather than what the teacher knows. - Finally doing all of that maintaining coherence, modulation, expressions and engaging interrogation. is nothing less than the art of exhibition.

The MUST project aims to develop tools to train university staff in creating and effectively using multimedia technologies so they have the skills to produce more realistic and engaging content in their communication within education, research, and university-community projects." https://buff.ly/3sQmvyZ

Creating British sign language (#BSL) signs for abstract climate concepts is very different from tangible objects like animals, but the process is equally fascinating. While a rabbit sign might directly represent its physical appearance, climate concepts require a deep understanding of scientific processes to create meaningful visual representations. Our sign development process involves a team of 12 experts at the #UniversityofEdinburgh, including deaf scientists, deaf educators and sign linguists. Earlier this year, our #RoyalSociety-funded project developed 400 environmental science signs. Rather than literally translating English words, we focused on visually representing the underlying concepts for these terms. For example, the sign for “#carbonfootprint” doesn’t attempt to combine signs for carbon and footprint. Instead, it shows #carbonemissions being released into the atmosphere, with the speed of movement indicating emission levels. This approach makes complex concepts immediately understandable, eliminating the need for time-consuming finger-spelling. New signs go through rigorous feedback from team members and deaf students before being approved and added to the Scottish Sensory Centre BSL online glossary. Each sign is filmed professionally and supplemented with definitions in BSL. This visual approach to scientific concepts makes BSL more efficient and helps deeper understanding. Users don’t just learn a word, they see how the process works. 🔻🔻🔻 Click/tap image below to view video on YouTube 🔻🔻🔻
