Ordering the chaos: Creating websites with imperfect data
The document discusses strategies for dealing with messy and imperfect data when creating websites. It describes how the Chembio Hub uses techniques like automatically tagging untagged data using significant terms analysis in Elasticsearch and creating database views to normalize different schemas. Filling gaps in tagging by querying search engines and considering flat file databases are also proposed. The goal is to enable sharing of chemical and biological research data across Oxford departments in a sustainable way without requiring perfect data formats or extensive curation.
Computeraid
The document discusses Computeraid's work providing recycled computers and technology training in developing countries in Africa, particularly their work with Moodle and educational institutions in Kenya and Zambia. It notes that Moodle is useful for distance learning in Africa as it is free and can deliver education to rural areas. It describes Computeraid's support for Kenyatta University in Kenya and the Zambian Open University to implement Moodle, including providing computers, training, and advice. Challenges to e-learning in Africa include low ICT skills and lack of home access, but it has potential benefits like increasing educational access.
California Corporate College CCCEWD Conference Updated 5 27 09
California corporations are projected to spend $2 billion on outsourced training in 2009, presenting opportunities for community colleges. The document outlines a strategic plan to create an operations plan and apply for grants by April 2009 to formalize a branding, marketing, and outreach program for community college training delivery. It also establishes annual assessments for community colleges based on size to support business development, sales, and contract management services.
E11 Physics Evaluation Sheet
The document contains evaluation sheets for 3 students - Faisal Husaini, Akhilesh Kant Chaurasia, and Sumit Singh - who took a physics exam. It shows the sections of the exam, the students' answers, the correct answers, and the marks obtained by each student. Faisal Husaini obtained a total of 1 mark, Akhilesh Kant Chaurasia obtained -1 mark, and Sumit Singh's score is not fully shown but he obtained -1 mark in the sections displayed.
Chembio Crunch Intro
The document describes a new tool called ChemBio Crunch that aims to simplify the process of analyzing dose-response curve data from high-throughput screening experiments. ChemBio Crunch allows users to upload raw data, validates plates for errors, calculates IC50 values for multiple plates, marks poor fits, and exports and deposits the results in an electronic laboratory notebook. The results showed that ChemBio Crunch was developed into a production-ready web application within 3 weeks, matches existing curve fitting software within 1%, and reduces the time to process 6 plates by over 10 times.
California Corporate College Cccaoe Fall 2009
The document outlines the concept, sustainability, and operations of California Community Colleges (CCC's) providing outsourced training through a centralized organization. It details how the CCC's can partner with this organization called the CA Corporate College (CA CC) to access new funding sources, leverage their collective resources, and generate additional revenue through contract training services for businesses. The CA CC aims to help CCC's expand their training offerings and capitalize on projected multi-billion dollar spending on outsourced corporate training programs.
Moodle
This document discusses the benefits of using the Moodle learning management system. It notes that Moodle is open source, modular, focuses on pedagogy and social constructivism. It has been successful due to its low cost, ease of use, functionality, adaptability and large support community. The document provides examples of how Moodle is used at Worcester College of Technology, including courses, hits, assignments, forums, quizzes and resources. It explains that Moodle allows learning anywhere at any pace and provides access to free multimedia content from various sources. Moodle also supports collaborative learning and keeping a competitive advantage through different e-learning models.

The document discusses techniques for increasing program efficiency and reducing operating costs for workforce training programs. It outlines an agenda that will cover opportunities for efficiency, streamlining techniques from sales to operations to sales. Specific techniques recommended include creating templates that can be reused for proposals, pricing, courses and more. It also suggests establishing standardized handoff processes and using databases to store and retrieve organizational data.
Psychology and dieting1
This document discusses various psychological theories for why dieting often fails, including restraint theory, boundary theory, and ironic processes of mental control. Restraint theory proposes that dieting restricts eating to an unsustainable level, leading to disinhibition and overeating. Boundary theory extends this by suggesting breaking dietary rules can trigger overeating. Ironic processes theory suggests suppressing forbidden thoughts about food paradoxically increases their occurrence. The document also reviews research supporting these theories and factors that can increase dieting success, such as understanding obesity's causes, motivation, and behavior modification.
Draw your sh!(f)t
This document provides instructions for an exercise called "How to draw sh*(f)t and make the most of it". The exercise was designed as a workshop to turn confusion into clarity through drawing and observation. It encourages participants to draw what is confusing to them and share their drawings to have a solution-focused conversation. The author thanks those involved in refining the exercise and making it successful at the SOL 2012 conference where it was introduced.
