#ELTchat - Hashtagged Conversations &amp; Continuous Professional Development through Social Networking

Most teachers have to use coursebooks, often coursebooks they were not involved in selecting. Whether they have positive feelings about their assigned coursebooks or not, “it is a truth universally acknowledged” that all coursebooks need positive intervention from the teacher, for practical and pedagogic reasons. In this presentation, I would like to share ideas about how to apply principles of communicative materials design to materials adaptation, turn meaningless exercises into meaningful and creative activities, consider how these adaptations can be tailored to mixed-level teaching.

Every Wednesday at 19:00 p.m. GMT, a great number of ELT teachers from all over the world log into their Twitter account and for one hour they hold an online discussion (chat) on a topic they have selected. #ELTchat is a hashtag which appears on all tweets in this online conversation, it’s searchable and anyone who ‘searches’ for it and uses it can converse with any other Twitter user following the same hashtag. It’s followed by hundreds of ELT teachers every week. This short presentation will look at how hashtagged discussions such as #ELTchat can - create a feeling of community online amongst ELT professionals - disseminate information, publications and research which would otherwise remain obscure to the average teacher - engage and inspire teachers by sharing materials and links - encourage teachers to keep abreast of new publications and new technologies - help teachers maintain their interest in their profession - provide support and create important relationships and connections The result of this is an expanded and strong Personal Learning Network (PLN) which can help teachers personally and professionally and keep them motivated and connected by maintaining their relationship with an ever expanding PLN through other Social Networks such as • Facebook • Linked In • Google+ It can develop dialogues and disseminate blog posts and materials shared – thus becoming a tool tools for Continuous Professional Development which is free, autonomous, and self-directed.

Intrigued by why some of the world's largest companies (Netflix, Google, Cisco, Twitter, Uber etc) are using gRPC? In this demo based talk we delve into the world of gRPC in .Net, what it does and why we should use it. We compare the interface with both Rest and graphQL. We will show you how to implement grpc server-side in .net and in the web. Finally, I will show you how the tooling helps you deliver powerful interfaces and interact with them quickly and simply.

Screen flow is a powerful automation tool that is commonly designed for internal and external users. However, what about the guest users? We will dive into various methods of launching screen flows and understand how to make them publicly accessible, extending their usability to a broader audience. The presentation will also cover the implementation of security layers and highlight best practices for a smooth and protected user experience. Discover the potential of screen flows beyond conventional use and learn how to leverage them effectively.

Syngulon’s technology expands the capacity for selection of microorganisms. The ability to select individual microbes with a behavior of interest is essential, whether for simple cloning at the bench, or for industry-scale production. Synthetic biology uses the concept of “bioengineering” to improve or modify existing genetic systems to create microbes with desired behaviors, and Syngulon uses this approach to develop its selection technologies. This selection technology is based on bacteriocins, ribosomally-produced peptides naturally made by most bacteria to kill competitive microbial species. These bacteriocins can have a limited or wide target range against other microbial species. This technology offers advantageous over antibiotic selection for several reasons: it avoids the use of antibiotics in the first place, helping to reduce the spread of antibiotic resistant microbes. The technology also increases product yield; as bacteriocins are generally smaller peptides, they do not impose a heavy metabolic burden on the producing cell. They can have a wide target specificity, helping to avoid genetic drift. Finally, our system is 100% plasmid-based (e.g. without chromosomal mutations), making it applicable for use in any E. coli strains.

We're living the AI revolution and Salesforce is adapting and bring new value to their customers. Einstein products are evolving rapidly and navigating their limitations, language support, and use cases can be challenging. Let's make review of what Einstein product are available currently, what are the capabilities and what can be used for in CEE region and how Rossie.ai can help to learn Salesforce speak Czech. We will explore the Einstein roadmap and I will make a short live demo (based on your vote) of some Einstein feature.

I'm excited to share my latest predictions on how AI, robotics, and other technological advancements will reshape industries in the coming years. The slides explore the exponential growth of computational power, the future of AI and robotics, and their profound impact on various sectors. Why this matters: The success of new products and investments hinges on precise timing and foresight into emerging categories. This deck equips founders, VCs, and industry leaders with insights to align future products with upcoming tech developments. These insights enhance the ability to forecast industry trends, improve market timing, and predict competitor actions. Highlights: ▪ Exponential Growth in Compute: How $1000 will soon buy the computational power of a human brain ▪ Scaling of AI Models: The journey towards beyond human-scale models and intelligent edge computing ▪ Transformative Technologies: From advanced robotics and brain interfaces to automated healthcare and beyond ▪ Future of Work: How automation will redefine jobs and economic structures by 2040 With so many predictions presented here, some will inevitably be wrong or mistimed, especially with potential external disruptions. For instance, a conflict in Taiwan could severely impact global semiconductor production, affecting compute costs and related advancements. Nonetheless, these slides are intended to guide intuition on future technological trends.
