As we think about how our children will be able to compete and lead in the Global Market for generations to come; we need to answer the following questions.
How do we revitalize our National Infrastructure?
How to we reverse water contamination that has crippled our natural water supply over the last 100 years?
How do we protect the privacy of our citizens when data is being created at immeasurable rates of growth year after year?
All of these questions will take bright minds and education in Science, Technology Engineering and Mathematics.
Gary Allen of ModernMinds (http://www.modern-minds.net) will present an opportunity for investors to take a leading position in the production, distribution and adoption of new S.T.E.M Education platform.
This is an investment in our children's' future.
High School Career Development ProgramsErica Swallow
During my final quarter at the MIT Sloan School of Management, I conducted an independent study about social entrepreneurship in the education sector, primarily focused on current players and existing opportunities in the space. I collaborated with education non-profit Noble Impact to determine how the high school education system might be transformed by greater involvement from communities and businesses.
My research entailed three stages: Internet research, phone and in-person interviews with key players at non-profits and businesses, and creation of a final report, which you’ll find attached to this email.
My research was focused on four questions:
- How are high school students currently engaged in career development?
- Which businesses are most engaged in K-12 education? How and why?
- What scalable opportunities exist to solve the skills gap between the classroom and workforce?
- What should I do after MIT Sloan to have the greatest impact in education?
The final report covers my key findings for the first two questions – insights were pulled from interviews with recruiters, students, non-profit leaders, and corporate giving professionals. The report also covers potential opportunities that Noble Impact or other organizations could implement to improve career-oriented programming offered to high school students. Lastly, the report gives a very brief insight into where my head’s at for post-Sloan plans.
INSPIRATION FOR THIS PROJECT
I was inspired to conduct this project for two key reasons: Education has been a life-changer for me, and Noble Impact’s work inspired me to think harder about how I could contribute to improving education in America.
As a first-generation college (and graduate) student, I’ve observed and relished in the difference furthering my education has made in my life, as compared with the trajectories of my siblings, cousins, and elders. Education not only pulled me out of poverty, but it also opened my mind to the many ways in which I could l contribute to the world.
Last year, I was invited to judge Noble Impact’s Arkansas High School Startup Weekend, and I was amazed by what the students were capable of producing: Full product prototypes, pitch presentations, and compelling arguments for why their business ideas were important. At the time, I didn’t consider how I might contribute to their experience beyond my duty as a judge, but as my second year of Sloan began to wrap up, I reflected upon my two years in business school and realized that my time in Little Rock with those motivated, talented students was the most inspiring time of my MBA. After starting a dialogue with Noble Impact CEO Eric Wilson, I decided I couldn’t end my semester without a deep dive into the education world. And thus, this project was born.
AAC&U 2014 Keynote: Leveraging Culture to Create a Powerful Eco-system for ST...drjamiebracey
“The federal government invests more than $3 billion per year on hundreds of STEM programs, yet there has been little measurable change in STEM student retention, graduation, or workforce readiness, particularly for underrepresented groups. Is it possible that the larger issue is not engagement, but rather inspiring motivation to persist? Answering this question requires that we rethink conventional wisdom about pedagogy, and incorporate the social reality of how students experience learning. Dr. Bracey will present outcomes from Temple University’s STE/A/M 2.0—an ecosystem approach to STEM teaching and learning that successfully integrates social, institutional, and domain cultures into rigorous learning strategies that promote STEM retention for diverse students.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
