The GIF(t) of Impact – The Ed Techie

The GIF(t) of Impact – The Ed Techie | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

Back in 2017 I blogged how ALT had taken a different approach to developing strategy which had made the often dry, boring process more engaging and meaningful. Well, it’s now nearly 2020 and we’re developing a new strategy, so ALT have handily updated on what they achieved over the last strategy period. And as well as a nice report, we have GIFs! It may seem trivial, but I think being able to boil your outcomes down to some GIFs may be both a useful exercise in practising clarity of message, and also make them more social media friendly.

Why CMALT is important to me #altc – Technology Enhanced Learning Blog

It’s coming to that time of year when I start planning for the Annual ALT conference: #ALTC. My annual review is complete, ALTC was discussed and it’s been approved that I can attend again. This will be my fourth ALTC, and this year we’re in Liverpool.

But my reflective mind is going back to my CMALT qualification, and why it is still so important to me. Earlier this year I wrote my three-year review to keep my CMALT credential current and valid. Whilst I wait for the response and, hopefully, approval, I still think of both the process I went through to gain CMALT in the first place as well as the on-going process of how I keep myself (as well as my CMALT) current. I will update my portfolio with the review text when I know I’ve passed.

Findings from the 2018 ALT Annual Survey | Association for Learning Technology

Findings from the 2018 ALT Annual Survey | Association for Learning Technology | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

The report and data from the fifth ALT Annual Survey have now been published and shared openly in the ALT Repository. As with previous years the Annual Survey is designed to:

  • understand current and future practice;

  • show how Learning Technology is used across sectors; and

  • help map the ALT strategy to professional practice to better meet the needs of and represent our Members.

With the survey in its fifth year we are able to record and report and number of changes and the results provide a useful oversight of priorities for our Members and the sector in general. Responding to the survey is an important way for Members to inform the priorities for ALT as part of the wider aims set out in ALT’s Strategy 2017-2020 and we are grateful to everyone who took some time to complete the survey.

The survey highlights very good awareness of the Senior and Associate CMALT pilots, which have been announced as launching on 28 February 2019. In terms of ALT activities that support research, practice and policy there is greatest awareness of day events and webinars run by local Member Groups, which were also indicated as one of the top priorities for 2019. This area will in part be supported by the new ALT Assembly which met for the first time on 20 February 2019.

ALT launches a new three-year strategy

ALT launches a new three-year strategy | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

Today we are launching the new strategy [http://repository.alt.ac.uk/2330 ] for the Association for 2014-2017.

 The strategy sets out our shared vision for developing the Association as an influential, innovative and independent membership organisation, clearly defining our aims for the next three years. The strategy also articulates our values as a community of practitioners, researchers and policy makers, values that define who we are and how we work together. It is the result of active consultation with our members, the wider community and stakeholders .
