The document discusses the digital divide between older and younger generations regarding technology use. Younger generations are more comfortable with technology due to growing up with it, while it remains foreign to many older adults. The study found computer use among older adults increased 47% from 2000-2004, but only 20% of older adults went online in 2003 compared to 65% of younger adults. Barriers to technology use among older adults included lack of confidence, education, and interest in learning new skills, as well as fear of the unknown.
An old article which I did for SAGT. This is the colour version. Slideshare doesn't recognise it as a document as it is wider than it is high. Double page spreads in documents don't exist according to Slideshare. Hmmm.

The document discusses plans for Milan, Italy to become a smart city. It outlines Milan's economy, which is powered by advanced industries like fashion, banking, and biotech. It also mentions that Milan will host the 2015 World Expo, bringing billions of euros in infrastructure investments. The document proposes developing Milan into a smart city using concepts from sustainable development and innovation programs, with technology like sensors, mobile services, and modeling. It aims to make Milan a hub connecting other smart cities as part of Expo 2015, focusing on feeding the planet through innovation networks.
This was a workshop I gave at http://csforum.eu in 2011.
DESIGNING NARRATIVE CONTENT
---------------------------------------
How can you be sure your content reaches the largest audience possible? By designing content for all contexts, that will reach your audience via any device, any phone, any laptop, anywhere.
This workshop will discuss how to create a content strategy for narrative content. We'll explore how to tailor your content, as well as your editorial workflows, for different devices and audiences. We'll use Treesaver, an open-source content layout framework to illustrate narrative content principles.
Publishing usually comes at the end of your content strategy, but by orchestrating your process for narrative content, you can ensure your stories, news, product descriptions, and more will be tailored for your audience wherever they are.
What you’ll learn
How to optimise workflow, production, and deployment for narrative content.
How to use the technology behind narrative content.
How to customise content for different contexts.
A presentation which explores contemporary Japanese culture. Includes working notes rather than a transcript. There is a resource list at the end. Enjoy.
Rick Weinberg presents on writing instruction that meets Common Core standards for struggling students. He discusses why teaching writing is important, how to support struggling students, and examples of assistive technologies that can help students organize and express their ideas. Some key assistive technologies mentioned are voice recognition apps, word prediction, and digital notetaking pens. The presentation aims to provide tools and strategies to enable all students to develop their writing skills.

This document describes the case of a 41-year-old Kenyan male presenting with wheezing, cough, and orthopnea. On examination, he has elevated blood pressure and increased jugular vein distension. An electrocardiogram shows left ventricular hypertrophy and ST segment changes. The document then provides information on various tropical cardiac diseases, including nutritional deficiencies, idiopathic cardiomyopathy, endomyocardial fibrosis, pericardial diseases, and infectious causes of myocarditis.
The document summarizes presentations from the AWS Government, Education, and Nonprofit Symposium held in Washington, DC on June 25-26, 2015. It discusses how AWS is being used by over 1,700 government agencies, 17,000 nonprofits and 4,500 educational institutions. Specific presentations highlighted how Instructure is using AWS to transform education delivery and how Civitas Learning is using AWS to bring together educational data and provide insights to help students learn and complete their programs.
Is the Open Web the Platform for TomorrowJoe Walker
The document discusses the open web and argues that four things are needed for it to continue winning the platform war: features, reliability, trust, and momentum. It notes that a lack of browser features has led to the proliferation of JavaScript toolkits, and that for the open web to thrive browsers need to prioritize evolvability without breaking functionality, while standards bodies need transparent and inclusive processes. Overall, the document makes the case that an open and decentralized web requires continued innovation, interoperability, and cooperation across different stakeholders.
She may represent different things to the speaker on different days. She could bring him heaven or hell. She could be the beauty he sees or the beast. She could be the source of famine or feast. She is a mirror for his dreams. Her smile reflected in a stream is beautiful. Though she seems happy in a crowd, her eyes show private pride and pain when she cries alone. She may be the love that cannot last, or the reason he survives. She is the why and where of his life. He will care for her through the years, and take her laughter and tears as souvenirs. She is the morning of his life.
The document outlines a damage control plan for the Leicestershire Police following public outrage over corruption issues. The plan aims to increase trust by educating the public on review actions, strengthening the force's image through awareness of reforms, and reeducating departments on ethics. Tactics include press statements, public announcements by the Chief of Police, and open meetings. Progress will be evaluated through private research firm reports and public opinion polls.
