Gaining an enterprise view of the data across different independent lines of businesses is difficult when the operations, systems, and data are inherently siloed. VSP Global is a conglomerate operating different businesses across eyewear insurance, manufacturing, and retail. They are integrating the silos using a semantic data layer.
In this presentation, the Enterprise Data Architect at VSP Global, Tim Fredricks will present:
• The challenges associated with data siloed across different LOBs
• How to build a semantic data layer using data virtualization
• Centralizing business rules in the data virtualization layer
This session also includes a panel discussion with:
• Tim Fredricks, Enterprise Data Architect at VSP Global
• Rick Hart, Director of Global Technology Solutions at BioStorage Technologies
• Jeff Veis, VP Big Data Platform Marketing at HPE
• Mike Litzkow, Sales Director at Denodo (as moderator)

VR (Virtual Reality) and AR (Augmented Reality) may have been around for a while, but the technology is finally becoming stable, accessible and affordable for educators. This presentation from 2013 still captures much of the basics, while some of the smaller details (no more Google Glass!!) may have changed.
In this talk, I will deliver a detailed case study on how WordPress can be used to deliver online courses and build highly engaged communities of students.
Most online courses achieve student completion rates of around 2% - 10% according to this MOOCS research study (http://www.katyjordan.com/MOOCproject.html)
We have achieved 65% completion rates of our online courses by building incredibly engaging courses and a world class learning environment built on WordPress. The best part of this talk is that the online courses and community we have built are all for WordPress developers and freelancers so this is truly a WordPress showcase piece.
The online education market is worth over US$100BN and WordPress provides a great platform for all online educators to improve the quality of their courses and deliver better student outcomes.
The core technology covered will include WordPress, BuddyPress, bbPress, BadgeOS and the LearnDash Learning Management System.
I will also talk about the psychology and strategy of delivering an online course to maximise student engagement and completion rates.
