AI playbook for teaching and learning leaders : A community guide
No full textI. Getting StartedII. Guidelines and GovernanceIII. Equity, Accessibility and Indigenous PerspectivesIV. Faculty Development and AssessmentV. Partner Perspectives: Students, Academic Integrity, Information Technology and EducatorsVI. What Comes NextThis AI Playbook emerges from Canada's long-standing tradition of knowledge sharing in educational development, serving as a practical resource for teaching and learning leaders navigating the profound changes artificial intelligence brings to higher education. Recognizing that no single institution can tackle AI transformation alone, the playbook addresses a critical gap in available resources by focusing on the "how" of AI implementation rather than just the "why," offering concrete and actionable approaches for leaders ready to envision and advocate for their institution's future. Written deliberately without AI assistance to emphasize human experience and community connection, the resource compiles publicly available materials enhanced with the authors' direct insights and experiences. Designed for the broad spectrum of "teaching and learning leaders" - from centre directors to faculty committee members to educational developers - the playbook transcends formal roles and institutional contexts, speaking equally to large universities and small colleges, well-funded units and grassroots efforts. As a living document that welcomes ongoing contributions from the educational community, it embodies a collaborative vision where shared knowledge and pooled resources enable collective adaptation to AI's transformative impact on teaching and learning, encouraging readers to suspend the "this won't work here" impulse in favour of asking "how might this apply in my context?

Full stack web development for beginners
No full textI. Introduction to Web AppsII. The User InterfaceIII. Programming on the Client SideIV. Programming on the Server SideV. Quick Reference GuidesWeb apps are built on a software stack – a collection of technologies, languages, protocols, and systems working together to produce what appears to the user as a single, seamless app. Full stack web development is about configuring and programming all parts of that software stack to create and maintain a web app.
A full stack web developer is a software developer who possesses skills in all aspects of web app development. Full stack developers need a working knowledge of HTML & CSS in order to develop user interfaces and write code that interacts with those interfaces. They also need a working knowledge of JavaScript, event-driven programming, and the Document Object Model (DOM) in order to add programming logic and real time interaction to the user interface. Finally, they need a working knowledge of a database query language such as SQL and a server-side programming language such as PHP, Ruby, or JavaScript to manage user access to the data stored by a web app.
This book will quickly bring novice programmers up to speed in the basics of full stack web application development using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, and SQL

Thinking about writing : Readings for multilingual writers
Full text linkGrounded in liberatory pedagogic frameworks, this anthology of readings for multilingual writers models genres that Year 1 students are likely to encounter and be asked to produce (the research essay, the critical reflection, the case analysis, the poem, the personal narrative). Viewing multilingual students through a strengths-based lens, the authors weave exploration of language, identity, and relationships into the discussion of writing-related ideas such as genre, reflexivity, voice, research and citation practices, and writing centre use. The contributions–most of them under four pages in length–adopt a writing-about-writing approach, and are intended to support multilingual university writers as they build critical thinking skills, transferable literacies, and metacognitive understanding of North American approaches to academic writing
