  • TFG 2018 Global Report
    Twitter Public Policy #TwitterForGood 2018 Global Report Welcome, Twitter’s second #TwitterForGood Annual Report reflects the growing and compelling impact that Twitter and our global network of community partners had in 2018. Our corporate philanthropy mission is to reflect and augment the positive power of our platform. We perform our philanthropic work through active civic engagement, employee volunteerism, charitable contributions, and in-kind donations, such as through our #DataForGood and #AdsForGood programs. In these ways, Twitter seeks to foster greater understanding, equality, and opportunity in the communities where we operate. Employee Charity Matching Program This past year, we broke new ground by implementing our Employee Charity Matching Program. This program avails Twitter employees of the opportunity to support our #TwitterForGood work by matching donations they make to our charity partners around the world. After it was launched in August 2018, Twitter employees donated US$195K to 189 charities around the world. We look forward to expanding this new program in 2019 by garnering greater employee participation and including additional eligible charities. @NeighborNest This year, our signature philanthropic initiative – our community tech lab called the @NeighborNest – was recognized by the Mutual of America Foundation. The Foundation awarded Twitter and Compass Family Services, one of our local community partners, with the 2018 Community Partnership Award. This is one of the top philanthropic awards in the U.S., recognizing community impact by an NGO/private sector partnership. Since opening in 2015, we’ve conducted over 4,000 hours of programming and welcomed over 15,000 visits from the community. This was made possible in partnership with over 10 key nonprofit partners, nearly 900 unique visits from Twitter volunteers, and over 1,400 hours of volunteer service.

  • Knights of Columbus' Good Works Assist Parish and Community
    September 2012 Knights of Columbus’ good works assist parish and community The local councils of the Knights of Columbus (KofC) remain vigilant in providing assistance to those in need while adhering to their Roman Catholic beliefs that are the driving force behind the organization as it continues to grow. “I always recognized it as a great service group within the church, which ties faith to service and service to faith,” says Jack Schreader, a member since 2005 and Grand Knight of the KofC, Bishop N.Z. Lorrain Council 1531 of Pembroke. “It’s a great group of guys.” On October 2, 1881, Father Michael J. McGivney called together a group of men to a church basement in New Haven, Connecticut. At that gathering, a pledge was made to form a fraternal order based on their devotion to their country, families and faith. A life insurance program was established by the founders to provide for widows and orphans of deceased members, which still exists to this day. Those wishing to join the KofC must be 18 years of age and be practicing Roman Catholics in union with the Holy See. Prospective applicants must accept the teaching authority of the Catholic Church on matters of faith and morals, strive to live in accordance with the Our Lady of Guadalupe celebration on January 26, 2012, featuring the Icon and the Knights of Columbus precepts of the Church, and be in good standing in the newly formed choir. Catholic Church. Not unlike the challenges the diocese currently faces in engaging youth to reconnect with their faith, so, recently, a new gathering of Knights is being established “I have a lot of family roots in that area,” explains too, are the KofC encountering hurdles in recruiting in Douglas via St.

  • Implementing a Digital Hub Strategy: Preservice Teacher and Faculty Perspectives
    Implementing a Digital Hub Strategy: Preservice Teacher and Faculty Perspectives Michelle Schira Hagerman and Jessica Coleman Abstract An education professor and a preservice teacher candidate describe their respective insights on the design and implementation of the first iteration of an open, web-based professional portfolio project. The student’s lived experience shows that for some, a Digital Hub can be a useful tool for curation, reflection, and networking; survey data suggests that not all students see value in this work, however. The pedagogical, programmatic, and research implications of this project are discussed. Background The English-language Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.)1 program at the University of Ottawa prepares preservice teacher candidates for professional certification by the Ontario College of Teachers (OCT). In line with professional standards for the teaching profession (OCT, 2017), the Faculty of Education offers a rigorous, research-based program of professional preparation that equips new teachers with adaptive expertise (Timperley, 2012) that includes knowledges, skills, and ways of thinking essential to the design of learning experiences for diverse learners in complex and ever-evolving contexts of schooling in this province (Ng-A-Fook, Kane, Crowe, Karagiozis, & Hagerman, 2017). Before 2015, the consecutive B.Ed. program at UOttawa was completed in a single academic year, but in the fall of that year, new legislative mandates required all of Ontario’s Bachelor of Education programs to become four-semester programs (Government of Ontario, 2016; Petrarca & Kitchen, 2017). One of the most challenging problems to address through the B.Ed. redesign in our Faculty has been how to create learning experiences at scale that will equip all candidates to teach with diverse digital technologies for diverse purposes within a broader programmatic framework of teacher inquiry for building adaptive expertise (Ng-A-Fook et al., 2017; Timperley, 2012).

NSSE comparison groups may be customized by (a) identifying specific institutions from the list of all 2015 and 2016 NSSE participants, (b) composing the group by selecting institutional characteristics, or (c) a combination of these. Institutions that chose not to customize received default groupsa that provide relevant comparisons for most institutions. Institutions that appended additional question sets in the form of topical modules or through consortium participation were also invited to customize comparison groups for those reports. The default for those groups was all other 2015 and 2016 institutions where the questions were administered.

  • Collège Boréal Presents First University Partners for Future Toronto Campus
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Collège Boréal Presents First University Partners for Future Toronto Campus Tuesday, May 14, 2019 – Toronto – Ontario Council on Articulation and Transfer (ONCAT) ▪ Today Collège Boréal presented the first group of partners who will contribute to the implementation of the pedagogical plan for its future campus in the Distillery District: Glendon College at York University, Laurentian University, Saint Paul University, the University of Ottawa, and the University of Moncton. ▪ Partnerships with these institutions will allow students enrolled in programs offered by Collège Boréal to pursue a University degree directly upon graduation from college. ▪ The intention is to offer these university programs at the new Collège Boréal campus at the Distillery District. The University of Moncton, because it is based outside Ontario, will be required to obtain legislative approvals prior to offering programs in this province. ▪ Other university partners will join Collège Boréal in the Distillery District. All programs offered on the future campus will be articulated with a university program. French-language and bilingual Canadian universities contribute to the construction of Collège Boréal’s new campus in Toronto. On Tuesday, May 14, 2019, the President of Collège Boréal, Daniel Giroux, and the presidents and representatives of Glendon College at York University, Laurentian University, Saint Paul University, the University of Ottawa, and the University of Moncton were present at the Ontario Council on Articulation and Transfer (ONCAT), which is responsible for the development of the student mobility system across the province, for the formal presentation of Collège Boréal’s first university partners. More flexibility and opportunities for students These partnerships will improve program offerings on campus: because their college credentials will be recognized by partner institutions, Collège Boréal students will have the option of pursuing a baccalaureate on site, at the Distillery District campus in Toronto.
