Danielle Cain 3.0 liberal arts capstone
The document summarizes the student's experiences in their liberal arts education. They enjoyed a service learning project where they taught a lesson in their son's classroom, which helped them realize how much work teaching requires. After failing all classes in their first term for lack of organization in online courses, the student learned to thoroughly research professors and stay on top of online class schedules and syllabi. The student has grown personally by advancing their career in healthcare, having two children, and discovering a passion for painting. Their broad education will help them as a nurse by teaching them that rhetoric is more widely used than they realized and that learning is a process of figuring things out over time.

This flipped approach led to more engaged students who took ownership of their learning.

Overall, flipping her classroom provided a quiet, settled environment for differentiated teaching and learning through submission and resubmission of assignments.

Student self-reporting has also been identified as the most significant indicator linked to raised student achievement. The document suggests that effective reporting and learning systems will integrate student voice. It advocates for schools to be democratic communities where students can help design their learning and have a say in decision making. Areas for further development include enabling students to present their insights in spaces traditionally controlled by adults and developing adult capacities to learn from students.

Ovidio Perez Lopez reflects on what he has learned in his "Tecnología Educativa" class. He learned that technology is changing how people interact and that it is important to think critically about educational technology. He also learned that he can teach English online using blogs and share information through videos, slideshows, and podcasts on a blog. To conclude, Ovidio feels satisfied with his learning and that what he learned will be useful for future activities and other classes.
Blogging for Educational Purposes
The document discusses three types of blogs that can be used in language classes: tutor blogs run by the teacher to share course information, class blogs as a collaborative space for teachers and students, and learner blogs as individual student spaces. It provides guidance on starting a classroom blog, such as choosing an easy platform, teaching netiquette, keeping posts short, informing parents, using correct grammar, not grading blogs, challenging students, and giving the blog time to be effective. Potential uses of classroom blogs include providing reading practice, guiding students to resources, enhancing literacy and writing skills, encouraging shy students, stimulating discussion, creating an online portfolio, and building relationships between students.
Blog Assignment Reflection
The document discusses a blog assignment where students were instructed to create their own blog on Blogger about an education topic they chose. The author chose to argue for the need for teacher aids in schools. Students also had to read and comment on two classmates' blogs.
In reflecting on the assignment, the author notes they enjoyed creating their first blog and found Blogger's formatting easy to use. They felt strongly about their topic on teacher aids. The ability to connect with classmates by reading and commenting on each other's posts was appealing. The author sees potential uses for blogs as a teacher, such as creating blogs for students to follow with assignments, materials, and news or for facilitating discussions on subject areas.

Blogger
Blogger is a free blogging platform that makes it easy for teachers and students to create educational blogs. Blogs allow teachers to share resources, lessons, homework, and reflections on teaching practices. Students can share schoolwork, collaborate on projects, and keep reflective journals. Blogger blogs can be kept private or public. Examples provided demonstrate how blogs have been used across grade levels for book reviews, sharing class notes, and documenting local history through student interviews.
Assignment # 4

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.

Cosa hanno in comune un mattoncino Lego e la backdoor XZ?
ABSTRACT: A prima vista, un mattoncino Lego e la backdoor XZ potrebbero avere in comune il fatto di essere entrambi blocchi di costruzione, o dipendenze di progetti creativi e software. La realtà è che un mattoncino Lego e il caso della backdoor XZ hanno molto di più di tutto ciò in comune.
Partecipate alla presentazione per immergervi in una storia di interoperabilità, standard e formati aperti, per poi discutere del ruolo importante che i contributori hanno in una comunità open source sostenibile.
BIO: Sostenitrice del software libero e dei formati standard e aperti.

Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data Warehouse
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.

This morning we talked about the rain we have been having, we looked at some photos Reuben brought in on a pen drive of his cousins farm flooded and we talked about the rain and what it does when it really really rains. We listened to the rain in the youtube clip below to create images in our minds then I read to the children the poem Real Rain by Alan Bagnall and we brainstormed all the verbs we could think of to describe the rain falling. Now we are writing our own real rain poems - check back later to read them. : ) Real Rain posts on blog. http://room10sfx.blogspot.co.nz/2012/03/rain-has-gone-for-now-at-least.html? q=rain http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=1781310978086000426#allposts

Email posting is fast, holds the time/place in your blog and allows you to go back and add more detail later. (if you wish) It also allows you to post from anywhere at any time and allows you to let other people, including students, post to your blog without having to give them sign in access. Check out this video to show how I used email to live-blog a class trip. : ) http://blog.core-ed.org/blog/2012/03/a-blog-an-iphone-a-school-visit- and-its-impact.html
