Transcript: Audit of e-learning skills Presented by Abdul Mazid my digital identity my digital identity introduction Welcome. A short presentation to identify and showcase my grasp of technology, implementation and realisation of what is available to me within the institute and industry. Lastly an evaluation of my areas for developement. my knowledgeof my knowledgeof i personally do not believe in catagorising people. According to Prensky 2001, people can be divided into two catagories- Digital Natives & Digital Immigrants. Which one am I? Inbetween I'd say. Or would I? what do i mean? what do i mean? im confused Technology in recent times has become the backbone to learning. Something "we" are so reliant upon, lessons would not be a success without. When i say we, do I mean the learner or the provider? Every time I go to school, I have to power down(Prensky 2001). A sentiment of one learner at a secondary school. It seems according to Prensky, learners fall into one catagory and providers another based on age. this would suggest there is a schism that needs to be bridged. legacy content vs future content Learning, can it really be divided into into these catagories? Does this concept work today? Isn't the use of technology to learn a natural part of learning or are we still bridging gaps? It‟s not actually clear to me which is harder – “learning new stuff” or- “learning new ways to do old stuff.” Prensky 2001 new forms of learning call for new classification Given the new ways we learn with technology at its heart. Writings also suggest, new theories have to be formulated and applied to help us justify our practices as teachers, Wheeler 2008. Some of these are- Heautagogy Paragogy Connectivism Rhizomatic learning in digital enviroments Postmodernistic perpective new forms of learning call for new classification what does any of this mean? why is it important? how does it tie into me? ideas have changed, times have changed, have we? ideas have changed, times have changed, have we? more recent writings suggest that these titles are obsolete. Tall blog 2012. The all new categorisation is Digital Residents and Digital Visitors. BUT WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? Conclusion It is not based on gender or age. identity based on needs. Where does that leave me? Digital resident have an online presence. are always linked in. regularly maintain their online persona. professionally, for study and for recreation. crucial aspect of how they present themselves Digital Visitor Uses the web as a tool in an organised manner. Whenever the need arises. Appropriate and focused need to use the web but don’t ‘reside’ there. EVOLUTION OF CONCEPT EVOLUTION OF CONCEPT Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants Evaluating digital services: a visitors and residents approach Not ‘Natives’ & ‘Immigrants’ but ‘Visitors’ & ‘Residents’ 2001 2012 2014 our focus for e learning our focus for e learning technology i use personally+in my taught subject technology i use personally+in my taught subject I find teaching ESOL to be an amazing experience. as the video suggests, asides from the comedy, some aspects of ESOL require a traditional approach i.e. writing practice, punctuation and speaking etc. But that doesnt mean to say i do not use technology.

On the basis of its initial assessment from the Company’s due diligence (that started shortly before the balance sheet date), management’s best estimate of the allocation of the $10 million purchase is as follows: $2 million of current assets $5 million of identifiable noncurrent assets $2 million of intangible assets $1 million of goodwill. The estimated purchase price allocation has not been finalized and is expected to be after the financial statements are issued. How, if at all, is the acquisition of Hamlet recognized or disclosed in the financial statements? Records the incurred but not yet reported (IBNR) costs as the estimate of medical benefits payable Third party estimates Historically accurate Continuously check for reasonableness Claims received within 2 months Estimate balance was $1.75M as of 12/31/10 Claims were $0.75M as of 3/18/11 855-10-25-3: An entity shall not recognize subsequent events that provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. Let's Look at GAAP 855-10-50-3: An entity also shall consider supplementing the historical financial statements with pro forma financial data. Occasionally, a non-recognized subsequent event may be so significant that disclosure can best be made by means of pro forma financial data. Such data shall give effect to the event as if it had occurred on the balance sheet date. In some situations, an entity also shall consider presenting pro forma statements, usually a balance sheet only, in columnar form on the face of the historical statements. 805-10-50-2: To meet the objective in the preceding paragraph, the acquirer shall disclose the following information for each business combination that occurs during the reporting period: a. The name and a description of the acquiree b. The acquisition date c. The percentage of voting equity interests acquired d. The primary reasons for the business combination and a description of how the acquirer obtained control of the acquiree Do not recognize Disclose terms and date of modifications under the subsequent event note No financial impact directly from modifications Note: Items (e) through (h) do not apply to Shakespeare's acquisition of Hamlet Let's Look at GAAP Disclosure Change as an SEC Filer Medical Benefits Payable cont. 855-10-55-2: The following are examples of nonrecognized subsequent events addressed in paragraph 855-10-25-3: Medical Benefits Payable Group 7 - Charlie Blackstock, Kori Gibbs, Kate Harris, Tracy Liu, Yanni Ma, and David Weber Let's Look at GAAP Review Subsequent Events Subsequent Events Disclosure Date Let's Look at GAAP Let's Look at GAAP GAAP ASC 855-10-25-1A: the entity shall evaluate subsequent events through the date the financial statements are issued Financial statements are issued: when they are widely distributed to shareholders and other financial statement users for general use and reliance in a form and format that complies with GAAP What should Shakespeare do? Assuming that the company will issue their financial statements on the planned date, they should disclose the date of March 20, 2011 in the footnotes Shakespeare could choose to do this, but since the purchase price allocation isn't finalized, maybe don't do this. Events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. Following ASC 855-10-50-1, they must disclose: (a) the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated March 18, 2011 (b) that date is when the financial statements were available to be issued They were available to be issued at that time, but not issued until March 20, 2011 a. Sale of a bond or capital stock issued after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued Shakespeare follows the above and makes as many disclosures as is practicable. Shakespeare might choose to disclose its initial purchase price allocation if it feels that is relevant/reliable. Acquisition of New Publishing Company Line of Credit Modification Let's Look at GAAP a. The nature of the event b. An estimate of its financial effect, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made b. A business combination that occurs after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued (Topic 805 requires specific
