Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Abstract
Nowadays global warming is considered as a burning problem and it is being a challenge to the entire
world and its scientific society. Global warming is a worldwide environmental problem by which there is an
abnormal increase to the level of temperature, particularly in a natural environment. Global warming is
not only affecting the nature, but it affects the life and homes of millions of people. The changes of global
warming is visible from the highest mountains to deep in the oceans and it extinguished different parts of
the earth and it’s also creates rich bio-diversity. To identify the level of awareness global warming and to
enhance the same among future secondary school teachers, the Authors decided to conduct the present
research study of awareness on global warming among graduate Teacher trainees of college of education.
Further, the study may also help the student teachers of secondary schools to create awareness on global
warming among students studying in secondary schools in future.
Keywords: global warming, climatic Change, green house effect, environmental refugees, and 3Rs
1. Introduction
1.1. Global Warming
Nowadays global warming is considered as a burning problem and it is being a challenge to the entire
world and its scientific society. Global warming is a worldwide environmental problem by which there is an
abnormal increase to the level of temperature, particularly in a natural environment. Global Warming is the
observed and projected increase in the average temperature of earth’s atmosphere and oceans due to green
house gas emissions like CFC, CH4, N2O, CO, Hydro carbons on account of human activities. The effects
of Green house gas due to increase in Green House Gas warms the planet, decrease in Green House Gas
cools the planet. Unfortunately there is a steep increase of the temperature in the last three decades.
Global warming is not only affecting the nature, but it affects the life and homes of millions of people. The
changes of global warming are visible from the highest mountains to deep in the oceans and it extinguished
different parts of the earth and it’s also creates rich bio-diversity. Because of this face weather, climate
thermal condition gets totally change. Human induced changes in global climate caused by release of
green house gases into the atmosphere, largely from the burning of fossil fuels, have been correlated with
global warming (encyclopedia McGraw hill science and technology (2001). Further there is a potential
increase in average global atmospheric temperatures resulting from the green house effect”. Encyclopedia
Britannica (2003)

1.2 Causes of Global warming:
The global average temperature near earth’s surface has risen by 0.74 +- 0.18 C during the last 100 years.
The Intergovernmental panel on climate change (IPCC) (1988) in its climatic models has projected that
global surface temperatures one likely to increase by 1.1 to 6.4C between 1990-2100. Although most
studies focus on period up to 2100, warming and sea level rises are expected to continue for more than a
millennium even if green house gas level are stabilized. This reflects the large heat capacity of the oceans.
Drastic increase in atmospheric temperature speeding up the melting of ice caps, glaciers & ice mountains
which in turn will lead to increase in sea level which will eventually result in coastal areas going beneath
water. Sea warming leads to wind warming Wind Warming will make cyclones, hurricanes and typhoons
more violent and frequent. The Consequences in a nutshell drastic increase in atmospheric temperature is
speeding up the melting of ice caps, glaciers & ice mountains which in turn. Will lead to increase in sea
level, Result in coastal areas going beneath water, Land and water becoming saline. Cyclones, Tornadoes,
Typhoons & Earth Quakes becoming more frequent and intense. Cultivable lands becoming barren,
resulting in drought. Steep reduction in agricultural yield due to Soil Warming & sea produce due to Sea
Warming. Pandemic diseases wiping out huge chunk of population. Steep Price Rise of all commodities
including consumables. Civil Wars between residents and migrating environmental refugees. The teachers
working in secondary schools are unaware of global warming and at the same time, even if they are aware
of global warming, they are not involving in the measures that prevent the global warming in the earth at
some extent. In order to indentify the level of awareness on global warming and to enhance the some
among future secondary school teachers, the Authors decided to conduct the present research study of
awareness on global warming among graduate Teacher trainees of college of Education located in and
around Karaikudi Town which is located in Sivagangai district, Tanil Nadu state, South India. Further, this
study may also help the teachers and secondary schools to create awareness on global warming among
students studying in secondary, schools in future.
2. Significance of the study
Lack of awareness on effect of the global warming is an essential problem. This problem should be solved
by the future teachers at some extent by increasing the level of awareness, in this way the study is
considered as needful one. Little knowledge on an environmental problems and global warming will affect
the student-teachers and society to suffer a lot. Particularly by increasing the knowledge about global
warming may help the society and students to know how to survive. The knowledge based related on global
warming is needed for the survival of the present society and hence the study is a need one. Attitudes and
values of concern for the environment and motivation to participate in its production are essential aspects.
Every student-teacher must change the attitudes, values and motivate them to be aware of global warming.
In this aspect the study is considered as a needful one. The study may reveal the cause, effectiveness and
awareness on global warming of the student-teachers as well as future generation. This study is concluded
an important ongoing change in the atmosphere must be known by the future teachers and students. By
knowing about global warming, they can have a better survival in near future. In this way the study has its
own importance.
3. Objectives of the study
• To identify the level of awareness on global warming among student-teachers who are undergoing
training at various colleges of education.
• To identify the level of awareness among student-teachers in each and every aspect of global
warming.
• To identify the significant difference if any between the different groups of biographical variables
such as location of the college, sex and subjects in global warming.
• To suggest some practical solution to reduce or to avoid the dangerous effect of global warming

7. Educational implication
The Authors suggested that the following recommendations for NCTE, NCERT, and educational bodies to
enhance the global warming awareness among graduate Teacher trainees.
(i) Theoretical aspects of environmental awareness strategies on global warming can be introduced as a unit
of core subjects in the graduate Teacher Training curriculum.
(ii) The practical inputs regarding environmental awareness strategy should be taken up through subject
specific programmes such as lesson plan writing, observation classes and practice teaching.
8. Preventive measures on global warming:
“Prevention is better than cure”. To prevent the Global Warming the following steps should be taken
care.
o Emphasis on decentralized industries
o Encouragement for free forming or afforestrations
o Preservation and management of forest
o Water management
o Dusting the nature by using appropriate technology
o By using 3Rs approach as Reduce, Reuse and Recycle, the problem may be minimized.
o Resource utilization as per carrying capacity
o Developing awareness on environment education may reduce all the problem related to earth
and its atmosphere
o Developing a life style on harmony with nature.
9. Suggestion for further research
It is suggested that the above study may be undertaken with all the Government Colleges of Education
graduate Teacher trainees. The same present study can be conducted to high school students and Diploma
teacher trainees.
