...Developing the use of Information and Communication Technology with Adult Literacies Learners in Scotland A overview of the E-learning Support Project August 2007 – March 2008 Scottish Government Peter Lanigan Development Co-ordinator Learning Connections [pic] Background to the Project During the period 2004 to 2007, funding was provided by Learning Connections for some 26 innovative projects around Scotland using ICT in adult literacies learning. The funding provided small grants of up to £6000 to support developments and has encouraged the use of ICT / e-learning in various different context and locations. In reviewing this programme in 2007, we decided to adopt a different approach for 2007/8 which would encourage and support local integration of e-learning into literacies learning.

...My Favourite Thing I have a lot of favourite things but there is one specially thing I would like to write about. That is music. Music can be used to express yourself. In religion are they also using songs to pray. I am not the greatest singer actually I can not sing. I love to listen to music. I love to listen to almost every genre of music but I do not like to listen to classic music because that makes me fall asleep. The reason I love to listen to music is because music can describe what you feel. Just for example if you just broke up with your boyfriend or girlfriend then there are many songs that can describe what you feel and sometimes it just touches your heart. Music can also be a lifesaver in an awkward situation. It can example be if you are driving a car and there is a awkward silence between you and your partner then music can save the awkward silence. Songs can describe what you feel. When you are sad and tired then you can listen to music so it can brighten up your day. You can deliver a message with a song. A song can be as beautiful as a poem. It can tell you a life story just in 3-4 minutes. For every song there is a certain place where you were when you listened to the song and it can bring memories back. Not all of the songs are great today. Some of the songs are so catchy but the lyrics do not make any sense just like ‘’Gangnam Style’’. Not many people know what he sings but they still sing along. Music is universal and that is also one of the reasons why...

...Active Directory structure and Domain Controller configuration: DHCP We will be using DHCP for wireless devices. All other devices (servers, printers, lab PCs, switches) will receive static IPs as they will all be permanent fixtures. I have DHCP enabled on both DC’s with a split-scope configured for the wireless address pool. This will help with load-balancing and will ensure that if DC1 goes down, wireless devices will still be able to receive an IP address from DC2. Active Directory Users and Computers User Groups are located under the Users container. All users will be in the Domain Users group, and then will be added to Domain Admins, Server Admins, Faculty, or Students based on role. Guest users will be added to Domain Guests. User accounts are generated with first initial, last name, and a number to distinguish duplicates (e.g. Anthony Matthews becomes amatthews001) Domain Controllers will remain in the Domain Controllers OU, Servers will be in the Servers OU, and workstations will be under the workstations OU in the OU that corresponds to their physical location (i.e. lab 1-3) This will allow us to apply GPOs to all devices based on location and role. Domain Controllers are WestSideDC01 and WestSideDC02, Lab machines are named with Lab name and an assigned number (e.g. Lab1PC1) Group Policy Management Currently I have the following options configured with group policy: Server Admins – adds the Server Admins security group to the Administrators group...

...Important Things I have many important things in my life that I could not live without. From people I know, to places I visit, even the music I listen to all means something to me. The very first thing that comes to mind when someone asks me what is important to me are the people that are important to me. My sister Krista is by far the best sister I could ever ask for; if I need anything she would be the first person that I go to for help. For example one time I got kicked out of a party at 3am and Krista came to pick me up. She is always there to talk about my problems and help me out. Obviously like any other normal siblings we do argue a lot, but it never lasts for very long. Krista is by far my favourite family member. Another person in my life that is extremely important to me is my nephew Cole. He is one year old and is the cutest baby I have ever seen. Cole can cheer me up even when I am in the worst mood. I remember one time I was having the worst day and nothing seemed to go right. I was being rude to everybody and nothing could make me smile. When I got home from school my sister showed up for a surprise visit with Cole and I instantly got the biggest smile on my face. It is impossible for me to be in a bad mood around him. Another thing that comes to mind when I'm asked what is important to me are the material things. I could never live without my iPod; I have a different playlist of music for every type of mood I am in. Music makes me happy when I'm upset...

...lot of things to do and not a lot of time to get them done. It has been like this for a while now. Actually it started in my vacation. Funny, huh? I had a two months period with NO school, NO to-do’s and NONE of the normal activities, which take my time. But somehow I still managed to stuff so many plans into my two months of break, that I was completely exhausted, when I finally went back to school. Of some reason I could not overcome the challenge of spending time on doing nothing, doing nothing at all. I failed. Badly. What is wrong with me? The funny thing is that when I came back to “civilization” after being away for such a long time, most of my friends had had the same problem. Apparently we, humans of the Western Europe, are exceptionally great at larding our time off with everything else than sitting in a couch and just stare. Why is that? Are we afraid of being inactive and nonsocial? What is it in us that simply demand us to have plans, being on the road and not prioritize some “Home-Alone-Time”? Well, I know that there are different personalities, different people and different needs. I, myself, am very extrovert, so I love having plans. I am feeling the best, when I am around people. But the amounts of plans I and many others have in their breaks are frightening. Why can we just not let our normal, stressed ordinary days take a rest, and do the same with ourselves? Of course, it is often great and awesome plans we have, I get it. But still… The funny thing is that...

...1st Journal To be honest, I had to prepare myself pretty early in the morning and I already had things organized the day before. Consequently, I had to wake up at 7 am and get ready at 8 because of my placement that starts at 9. I didn’t know what the job would consist of, but given a brief overview, I meant to have my placement at Wesley Mission Care, Chermside. I am actually pretty nervous because I have some self-doubt of fulfilling what the employer wants me to get done and their expectations. I was very aware of two things: the butterflies in my stomach were slightly more active than usual and, my body was definitely not used to waking so early in the morning. But I will be utilizing my skills to get use to the way they handle thing at Wesley. I have no yet started on my volunteering as it will commence on April 23rd, but I know that the employer will lecture us about safety procedures and precautions and also hazards. I have been in Wesley Mission before as my dad currently works there as a nurse. I have seen the nurses and doctors size, it is pretty intimidating but I understand why they need to be physically strong and active as they need to assist the elderly with everyday activities that some patients may not be easily active. Apparently, I will not be working in that type of environment which is a relief; I will be working with my fellow intern to entertain the elderly with their daily bingo. Throughout the pass week, I have researched on what Wesley Mission...

...this happening to me? Do I really deserve this? Is this some punishment for something I’ve done? Is it because my name is Hero? Dear Lord tell me why. I’ve been sitting here for hours just thinking about yesterday. It seems like every time I do think about it my heart shatters even more as tears run down my face like two never ending rivers. While I sit, I ask God over and over what did I do to deserve this. But of course there is no answer or reply. There are a couple of things that really hurt me yesterday and I mean REALLY!!! I was so hurt when Claudio said I as in me cheated on him when I know I did no such thing. Doesn’t he know how much I love him? Then another thing is my father; how could he say those things? How could he want to kill or disown me like that? He says he’s ashamed of me but after hearing what he said it is I who is ashamed of him. He should believe me because I’ve never done anything to sway his trust in me. I’ve been a loyal and faithful daughter. But the good things about this situation are that the Friar, Beatrice, and Benedick believe me. For this I am most thankful because it shows me who I can really trust. Now, there’s a plan for me to play dead so that Claudio can feel guilty for ‘killing’ me. The thing is even if I am madly and undeniably in love with him will I be able to forgive him easily. I feel the same towards my father will I forgive him easily once he finds out I’m innocent. There is so much to think about but I don’t yet...

...watch. The interesting thing about the video was that it was not about a hypothetical workplace but an actual workplace in the world. As opposed to the popular belief, one of the world’s best workplace was in a developing country instead of a developed country. I work as a coordinator and instructor in a technical institute that trains echocardiographers and medical sonographers but unfortunately my current workplace does not have most of the qualities that were mentioned in the video. Although, the only thing that my workplace does well is that they motivate instructors to sign up for seminars that would help them grow in their respective fields in terms of information and knowledge. The school is relatively new, opened up in 2011, and currently has a total of 25 instructors. We have a team which updates the administration and instructors about the seminars in the field of sonography that would be taking place in the tri-state area. The instructor after checking their schedule and availability, signs up for the event but at the same time, not more than three instructors can go at the same time for the seminar or event. 2) Detail what the student has learned from the activity, and I learned a lot from the video. Not to forget that some of the things mentioned in the video was over the board or too exaggerated for most of the workplace but still there were a lot of things that I learned and passed it to my immediate boss. My dream is to open up my own business; a healthcare...

...student. Knowing when you are most productive helps to schedule your day and also reduces the guilty feeling of “slow” periods because you have planned for them. 2. Learn to say no. In the beginning of my studies, learning to say no was an easy task for me. I was excited about class and I wanted to succeed. As school continued, I found it harder to say no because I was nervous friends and family would begin to think I was “giving them excuses.” I learned an effective way to communicate my needs with them, and soon “saying no” was a perfectly acceptable and efficient response for both parties. 3. Avoid noise distractions. Avoiding noise distractions is an area that requires the most focus for me. I cannot study or work when I have background noise. Knowing this helps to plan my activities throughout the day so I can be the most productive and not back track my efforts constantly. 4. Ask: Would I pay myself for what I’m doing right now? Asking if you would pay yourself for the activity and efforts you are engaged in at the moment is a wonderful technique to ensure you are working at full capacity. I ask myself this often and find it gives me that extra boost to push a little harder. 5. Ask: Can I do just one more thing? When asking myself if I can do just one more thing before the day is over,...

...miss owning my own business and there are days that I can’t believe that I would ever consider doing it again. There are many plusses to working for someone else; however, there are many benefits of being self-employed and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed them both. For the last six-plus years, I have been fortunate enough to work for one of the finest employers in my area. Fifteen years prior to that I took pride in owning several of the finest businesses in my area. We all need to make a living that makes us happy. Job satisfaction directly affects our entire lives in many ways. Based on a 40 hour work week, we spend almost twenty-four percent of our lives each week at what we do for a living. The National Sleep Foundation provides statistics that says that an average American sleep 6.7 hours per night. Taking this statistic and placing it in the equation and the percentage rises to a full 33%! One-third of our waking hours per week are dedicated to work. For many, working for the man suits them just fine. As well, many choose to pave their own road for a career. No matter what we do there is a sense of satisfaction that we all must experience in our careers. Having experienced both, I can say that there are inherent differences that divide the choice of, “Being THE MAN” versus “Working for THE MAN”. The following is a comparison based on my experiences alone. I have listed them from my most important to least. Perhaps they are shared by others but these are my views. TIME ...

...help you succeed. Going back to school can be terrifying, especially after being out school for so long. You, like myself, are probably telling yourself that you can’t do it. You haven’t been in school in so long; things have changed so much. We all hate the thought of failure; the truth is you won’t know until you try. There are things you can do to help yourself prepare for returning to school, and I’m going to go over some that I have learned along the way. The most important thing you need to know when returning to school is yourself. You can’t be successful if you don’t know your strengths and weaknesses. By taking a look at yourself, you can get a grasp on what areas of learning you might struggle with and what part of learning should come easy. There are many factors that can influence how we learn. These factors can include your behavioral characteristics, how much life experience you have, which of your senses are most predominant and whether or not you are self-directed in your learning (Reuter, 2000). For instance, I know that I need to be shown a few times, then I need just to dive in and try it myself. If I don’t get that hands on experience, all the telling me in the world doesn’t make a difference. Knowing this, I have become better even in my career. Understanding how you learn helps you teach others. If you can spot their learning style, you will be better informed on how you should show them whatever it is you are trying to teach them. Another area...

...like the end of a spoon. It was a whole new atmosphere for me. I was puzzled about my presence in this big bowl sized nation. I had no idea why my parents had brought me here all the way from India. I never realized that my parents were more concerned about their children having better opportunities than they ever had. So here I was in an unknown land with an unfamiliar language I had no single idea about. I was fortunate enough to begin my education from kindergarten. Kindergarten has always been a memorable time to reflect back on especially my first ever picture day. Considering the fact that I was a novice to the English language, I was placed in an ESL class. I could still go back decades and recall my first ever picture day. It was definitely the most award pose I have ever put on. There I was standing with an odd posture, wearing an old grandma knitted navy blue school sweater. I had the cheesiest smile on my face like I had just swallowed a ghost pepper and was shocked by its surprising taste. I was holding my favorite book the “The three little bears” with a tight grip to a slight angle incase anybody tried to take it from me, I’d run off with it at 90 mph. My innocence was presented in the picture through my discomfort. But I was a kid and had no idea that my parents would actually pay to get this ridiculous picture enlarged for the family album. Years after the picture, many things had changed. I was no longer a skinny kid, but instead could’ve been known as the...

...when we were in full bloom.” ― Gabriel Garcí¬a Márquez. One day I got up and as a mechanical act I went to the bathroom to wash my face, I saw myself in the mirror and… WHAAAT?! What’s that hair buried in the front of my head? Hidden among the others! It looks different, it looks… WHITE!! It feels frustrating. I’m too young to be old already! I started searching with close attention at every corner of my head and I discovered that the rebellious hair was not alone, he had made some friends of his kind, and to make things worse… on my face I also had crow’s feet!! Those wrinkles my mother has!! Let’s face it, I’m only 25, couldn’t those elderly symptoms appear later on? It’s hard to see in the mirror an image you don’t feel identified with, I think I’m still 18 years old, in fact I still do the things I did when I was that age, but with new residents in my head and face which show that time has passed for me too, that I’m not that teenager I once was, that every candle I blow on each of my birthdays marks an year more in my life, marks the flow life is, which never gets rest. However, I still think that every hour, every minute and every second that we go through is an instance of learning. Time helps us not only grow up physically, but also mentally and spiritually. Those wrinkles and white hairs only show that we have experienced more things than younger generations, that we have different stories to provide the world with; who doesn’t love listening to our grandparents’...

...it is. I have found in my life I strongly likes leading, motivating, and dedicating people which leads up to the military police or in the world being a detective. In order for this to occur I will need to be discipline and be able to follow rules. I am willing to do whatever it takes for me to be that successful person in life; therefore, I am going to stick to going to school and push myself to where I want to be in life. To be successful, I have to get that proper knowledge first. The subfield I believe is best suited for providing psychological insight into my preference is the developmental psychology. The reasons I think this suit my situation because of the fact it states in the book "developmental psychology means studies of how people change pysically, cognitively, and socially over the entire life span (Baron and Kalsher, pg 11). The military preps you from how you used to be into the whole new person. Leading someone is a big step in life, in order to do that you need the discipline and maturity, and I feels like I am a strong person to do it. I want to be one of the best police officers to be able to save and protect people from all harm. I like the things I do in life because it involves helping others and being proud of it. I have done volunteer work, stewpot, serveds as a page for Gov. Phil Bryant, camp with JROTC, held positions in officer at school, and so on, so that should explain why I like leading, motivating, and dedicating in my life. I feel that biological...
