As part of a year-long commemoration of their golden anniversary, the Tufts University Beelzebubs present a show like you've never seen before: Bubs groups of all generations -- from the original 1963 group to the present -- perform the absolute best of Beelzebubs a cappella. The Beelzebubs, Tufts' oldest men's a cappella group, have been renowned worldwide for decades. With performances by over 200 singers in five-year alumni groups, this timeline-style show will chronicle the history of Bubs music, ending with a performance by the 2013 Bubs. The History Concert is traditionally a private part of Reunion Weekend, and in the past has only been open only to Bubs, their families, & their friends. Now, for the first time ever, the Beelzebubs will share this special event with an audience in honor of their 50th! Fans of the Bubs, of a cappella, and of just about any music from any time won't want to miss this one-night-only show. Come hear these Brothers In Song!

Tufts STEM Education Lecture Series Co-sponsored by the Tufts Center for Engineering Education and Outreach and Dept. of Education Open to the public. All are welcome.
Jim Slotta Associate Professor of Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE) The University of Toronto
Smart Classrooms and Knowledge Communities: New Pedagogical Models and Technology Architectures for 21st Century Learning
AbstractThis talk will present a recent theoretical model of collective inquiry called Knowledge Community and Inquiry, developed by Jim Slotta to guide the designs of complex collaborative inquiry curriculum for secondary science. Typical KCI designs are several months in duration, with students engaged in developing a shared knowledge base that serves as a resource for carefully scripted inquiry projects. In the past several years, Slotta and his team have advanced a sophisticated technology architecture called SAIL (Scalable Architecture for Interactive Learning) to provide scaffolding and real time analytic support for the sequencing of interactions amongst people, materials, tools and activities. This talk will review KCI and SAIL, then present three curriculum designs from current research projects.
Bio
Jim Slotta is an associate professor of education in the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE) at The University of Toronto, where he holds the Canada Research Chair in Education and Technology. He completed his doctorate in Cognitive Psychology with Micki Chi at the University of Pittsburgh (1997) and spent 10 years as a researcher and faculty member at the University of California, Berkeley, where he developed the Web-based Inquiry Science Environment (WISE). In 2006, he established the ENCORE lab (http://encorelab.org), a team of talented students, designers and developers who investigate collaborative inquiry learning in formal (K-12) and informal (home, field and museum) settings. Recent funded projects have examined the use of embedded phenomena in elementary classrooms, distributed and ubiquitous learning in high school physics, and an immersive rainforest simulation for high school biology. Together, these projects examine how students can become a knowledge community, supported by technology, to enable inclusive participation and promote the growth of ideas.

NCDD Tufts Meetup: A speed networking and learning event
Members of the National Coalition for Dialogue & Deliberation (NCDD.org) are invited to join NCDD's director and several Board members for a fun afternoon meetup before the Frontiers of Democracy confererence begins.
From 1:00 to 4:00, we'll enjoy some coffee and snacks, partake in some "speed networking," spend time in small groups learning about some of the region's most exciting dialogue and deliberation projects, and talk some about what is and can be done to build civic infrastructure in the region.
We're encouraging NCDD members (and potential members) from across New England to come together for the event, whether or not they're attending the Frontiers conference. NCDDers coming in from outside New England for Frontiers are strongly encouraged to attend as well.
Attendees will receive a list of everyone present (including contact info and bios) to encourage you to continue connecting and collaborating after the meetup.
Not attending the Frontiers of Democracy conference? You're still welcome to join us for the NCDD meetup! For a $20 fee, you can also stay on and participate in the first evening of the Frontiers conference. Just choose "1" for the quantity beside both options above.
Those attending the Frontiers conference should register separately for the conference here on the Tufts website.
Not an NCDD member? You can join at www.ncdd.org/join. The $50 annual dues for supporting members is not required, so please don't let dues deter you from becoming a member of this great network!
NCDD was formed in 2002 in response to a growing need for learning and collaboration among those who do dialogue, deliberation, conflict resolution and public engagement work in a variety of disciplines. NCDD's events are highly participatory, showcasing the newest innovations and attracting some of the best and brightest in our field.
