Web Page Foundations
Overview
This lab walks you through creating and deploying a simple web page. The web page you create in this
lab will have no functionality yet. It just contains many of the html elements you will see on most web
pages today. We will turn this web page into a working web application next week. A text editor will be
used to create the web page. You are welcome to use an html editor or Integrated Development
Environment (IDE) to help you generate the web pages if you like. Please be sure you have read the
“Creating Web Pages” competencies prior to completing this Lab. The online textbook has many html
code examples that will help you become comfortable with the most popular html tags.
Learning Outcomes:
At the completion of the lab you should be able to:
1. Create a web page comprised of formatted text, images, lists, tables, hyperlinks and forms.
2. Review and analyze Apache Web server logs notating http access, http methods and http error
codes
Lab Submission Requirements:
After completing this lab, you will submit a word (or PDF) document that meets all of the requirements in
the description at the end of this document. In addition several html and image files along with the
Apache2 access.log file will be submitted. You can submit all files in a zip file.
Virtual Machine Account Information

Michigan IT Symposium 2017 - CI/CD Workflow TutorialJeffrey Sica
When developing custom applications the cloud gives developers tools for better testing and automated upgrades. This environment lends itself to the benefits of a Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipeline. By building tests and deployment scripts up front, rather than an afterthought, we can greatly minimize IT effort when making code changes.
This tutorial aims to provide foundational knowledge on the CI/CD mindset and give practical experience using one solution (Gitlab CI). The concepts and experience provided will be applicable to other build systems such as Jenkins or TravisCI.
Continuous delivery in larger shops can run into people and technological roadblocks related to complex systems and organizational structures. This presentation looks at some of those challenges and how to overcome them.

Open Assessments and OERs as Enablers in Competency-Based Education Tom Caswell

Title: Open Assessments and OERs as Enablers in Competency-Based Education
Tom Caswell, Helix Education
Brandon Muramatsu, MIT
It has been said that if you are measuring seat time rather than competency then you are measuring the wrong end of the student. Competency-based education has received a great deal of attention as a disruptive innovation that promises to raise quality and lower the cost of higher education. EDUCAUSE defines competency-based education (CBE) as awarding academic credit based on mastery of clearly defined competencies. In traditional higher education time is fixed and learning varies, which is why students receive grades at the end of a quarter or semester. Contrast this with competency-based education, where learning is fixed and time varies for each student. But if time varies then how do students know when they are done? Assessments play a central role in CBE because student performance must be measured against set standards.
While there are vast repositories of OERs, relatively few come with assessments to validate knowledge or check for understanding. In this demo we will show the Open Embedded Assessment (OEA) tool developed by MIT and Open Tapestry. Open Assessment complements existing OER efforts with tools to allow instructors to embed assessments in any OER, thereby providing students with a richer learning experience. Faculty can also create shared collections of assessment items with other faculty. We will demonstrate the current state of Open Embedded Assessments as both a formative and a summative tool. We will discuss the opportunities and challenges of a CBE implementation.
As more institutions explore competency-based education the need for an open infrastructure will grow. Helix Education is developing CBE courses using OERs to show what is possible within the Helix platform. Open Embeddable Assessments allow OERs to be leveraged into richer learning environments. Enhanced with Open Embeddable Assessments, these environments can provide valuable information back to students, faculty, and instructional designers. This data can expose gaps and deficiencies in the course -- areas that should be strengthened. And with open content the opportunity for data-driven improvement can be fully realized because the OERs can be legally modified. Together, Open Embeddable Assessments and OERs create a virtuous cycle of continuous improvement that can serve competency-based education well.

Connecting College Faculty to Open Content Repositories: Challenges and Oppor...Tom Caswell
This presentation will describe the Open Course Library, an ongoing project to redesign Washington's 81 highest enrolling college courses as open educational resources. During this multi-‐year effort, faculty members from the Washington state colleges are creating openly licensed courses using their existing learning management system. These courses will be shared within the 34-‐college system using a Creative Commons CC-‐BY license. I will discuss opportunities and challenges we have faces in this ongoing effort. Participants will recognize the role of faculty technology resource centers in many university Open Courseware operations, will understand the need for a simpler, more sustainable approach to creating open educational resources in Washington's community college system, will learn how faculty are using their existing LMS tool to create open educational resources in the Open Course Library project, and will consider the implications of increased use and remixing of open learning resources and the need for tools that make this easier for faculty.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
