This document discusses two social networking tools: Diigo and Ning. Diigo allows users to bookmark websites and annotate pages, and was ranked #15 among top learning tools in 2010. Ning allows users to create their own social networks, and was ranked #31 among top learning tools in 2010. The document argues that social networking has potential benefits for education by facilitating collaboration, but educators should select networking tools carefully.
Building platform for social engagements
A platform is a model of engagement with stakeholders, where 'value' gets created by its constituents through interactions facilitated by the medium of choice.
Away from narrow meaning associated with infrastructure platforms or middleware platforms that form the underlying foundations necessary for the creation of databases, applications and business services, here the platform means - engagement
VAVLC
The Department of Veterans Affairs' Virtual Learning Center received the Government Technology Leadership Award for allowing healthcare providers and administrators to share innovations, lessons learned, and cost-saving ideas. The Virtual Learning Center began in 1997 to spread best practices among VA health professionals. It has since shared over 1,500 ideas internationally and contributors have reported $48 million in annual savings from adopted solutions. In addition to cost savings, the center allows employees to receive advice from VA experts and notifications on topics they registered interest in. The award recognized the Virtual Learning Center's role in improving government operations by breaking down barriers between organizations.

Brief introduction- chemistry from coast to coast
We have successfully identified a candidate compound from our phenotypic screen that shows promising activity against our target of interest. Initial testing demonstrated that the compound is able to induce the expected cellular response at low micromolar concentrations. Further characterization of this hit is now underway to evaluate its potential as a tool compound or clinical candidate.
Text classificationmethods
The document summarizes three simple classification methods: Naive Rule, Naive Bayes, and k-Nearest Neighbor (k-NN). It provides examples of using each method to predict fraudulent financial reports, delayed flights, and purchasing a riding mower. Naive Rule classifies everything as the most common class. Naive Bayes improves on this by using predictor variables. k-NN identifies the k closest training examples and classifies based on their majority class. The document discusses evaluating and choosing k for k-NN.

Gender Impact of ICT in Education
Gender is an important issue in the context of information and communication technologies ICT . Studies show that ICT use is subject to gender bias, e.g. in relation to ICT use and interests. This contribution describes the current situation of gender and ICT professions. Based on an empirical study, it shows particular areas in ICT education that suffer from gender inequalities in both countries. Furthermore, the chapter elaborates how gender inequalities develop from secondary to professional ICT careers based on statistics. As a consequence of recession driven economic development, the information and communication technology sector has weakened in recent years in OECD countries. Still, an ICT growth of about 4 percent was observed in 2008. Although there was a decrease in 2009 due to the current financial crisis, a general upturn is expected in the long term because of constant development of the ICT services, software, products for Internet use and communication, and infrastructure. The ICT skills of the work force contribute to the growth the overall share of employees in ICT specialist occupations is 4 percent and increasing rapidly, and 20 percent of employment relates to occupations that use ICT extensively.Even though information and communication technology ICT is essential for everyday life and has gained considerable attention in education and other sectors, it also carries individual differences in its use and relevant skills. This systematic review aims to examine the gender differences in ICT use and skills for learning through technology. A comprehensive search of eight journal databases and a specific selection criterion was carried out to exclude articles that match our stated exclusion criteria. We included 42 peer reviewed empirical publications and conference proceedings published between 2006 and 2020. For a subsample of studies, we performed a small scale meta analysis to quantify possible gender differences in ICT use and skills. A random effects model uncovered a small and positive, yet not significant, effect size in favor of boys g = 0.17, 95 CI 0.01, 0.36 . However, this finding needs to be further backed by large scale meta analyses, including more study samples and a broader set of ICT use and skills measures. We highlight several concerns that should be addressed and more thoroughly in collaboration with one another to better IT skills and inspire new policies to increase the quality of ICT use.
