If You PLEs ... You'll Thank Me Later - Advance Your Career, Grow Your Busine...Valary Oleinik
This presentation is from the 2014 USDLA National Conference.
In today's rapidly changing world, it is more important than ever that each of us becomes a life-long learner and that we help the learners we work with to follow that path. While some environments still provide active professional development plans, others do not. If an environment does provide an active professional development plan, too often it will focus on keeping skills needed for your current position up-to-date rather than increasing or enhancing your skills to expand your future opportunities. This issue is compounded in the many environments where active development plans are not offered; therefore, much of the development falls to you. One way to prepare yourself for whatever comes your way is by developing and nurturing your own Personal Learning Environment (PLE).
While the definition of a PLE may not be firmly established, at this point the focus is learner-centric and it provides ways for the learners to control and manage their own learning. A PLE is comprised of all of the tools, processes (formal and informal), and methods that individual learners use to expand their knowledge, skills and competencies. This would include, among other things, Web 2.0 applications, LMS, books, and people they connect with personally or professionally.

The author concludes that blogs allow learning through curating useful information and interacting with others, though personal content needs filtering. Blogs in education and government demonstrate their learning potential when prepared well.
Net neutrality ensures equal access to all online content without throttling by internet service providers (ISPs). In December 2017, net neutrality protections were removed, allowing ISPs to potentially block or slow certain websites or apps. This could negatively impact consumers by creating fast and slow internet lanes that charge more for preferred access or favor certain companies that pay higher fees. Without net neutrality, ISPs have more control over online content and could impact what information people access.
On October 21, 2016, a cyber attack took about half of the websites in the US. This presentation discusses the attack, why it happened, how it occurred, and what we can learn from it.
This document provides an overview of diabetes, including the different types. It explains that diabetes is a metabolic disease where blood glucose levels are too high due to the body either not producing enough insulin or not properly responding to insulin. The four main types of diabetes are prediabetes, type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes. Type 1 is an autoimmune disease where the pancreas produces little to no insulin, type 2 is most common where the body becomes resistant to insulin, and gestational occurs in some pregnant women. Symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and risks of untreated diabetes are also outlined.
The FCC is proposing new rules that would allow internet service providers to create fast lanes and slow lanes, allowing them to charge companies like Netflix more for priority access in the fast lane. This could create tiers of internet access and favor some companies that pay over others. Supporters argue it increases competition, while opponents argue it is unfair to consumers and hurts innovation from smaller companies. The White House and internet companies like Netflix support stronger net neutrality rules that classify ISPs as common carriers under Title II.

Bitcoin is an electronic currency that began in 2009 and relies on a network of computers to verify transactions without a central authority. The value of bitcoin is highly volatile and dependent on user confidence. Bitcoins can be used to purchase goods online from some retailers and are stored in virtual wallets with unique keys. The collapse of Mt. Gox, a major bitcoin exchange, in 2014 demonstrated issues with unregulated currency when over $450 million in bitcoins went missing due to theft. Better regulation of exchanges may help bitcoin gain mainstream acceptance.
Brain plasticity refers to the brain's ability to change and form new connections through learning. Engaging in mentally stimulating activities like learning a new skill, taking challenging classes, or playing music can improve brain plasticity. Real-life examples show how activities like learning directions or an instrument can physically change the brain's structure. While positive plasticity occurs through learning, negative plasticity can happen from habits like inactivity, disengagement, or negative learning patterns. The document recommends choosing novel, engaging, rewarding, and meaningful activities to improve brain plasticity and protect cognitive abilities.
Depression is a whole body illness that affects both physical and emotional health. It influences factors like eating, sleeping, working, and relationships. There are several types of depression including major depressive disorder, dysthymic disorder, minor depression, psychotic depression, postpartum depression, and seasonal affective disorder. Clinical depression is diagnosed when 5 or more symptoms are present most days, such as sadness, loss of interest, feelings of worthlessness, changes in appetite or sleep, and thoughts of death or suicide. Depression is caused by a combination of genetic, biological, environmental, and psychological factors and can run in families. It is treated through medication, psychotherapy, electroconvulsive therapy, and lifestyle changes.
5 technologies that have changed our lives are email, iPods, smartphones, Facebook and other social media, and Skype. Email allows communication without barriers of distance or time but lacks personalization. iPods store vast music libraries portably but reduce aesthetic album experiences. Smartphones integrate computer functions into phones, enabling constant connectivity but reducing eye contact. Facebook and social media enable immediate sharing and connections but risk oversharing and lack of time. Skype enables video calls internationally but can feel intrusive with spotty connections. Emerging technologies discussed include Google Glass, smartwatches, geolocation services, 3D printing, and Google Fiber's ultra-fast internet.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
