In recent years MIT has been releasing course materials online through their OpenCourseware project, making content available all around the world for free. Many people have benefited and continue to benefit today from having these materials available. Other universities are also now beginning to see the value of participating in similar movements, and are publishing OpenCourseware sites of their own. This movement is growing across the world including universities from several countries such as Japan, China, Spain, the Netherlands, Mexico, and the United States. Producing web sites with freely available educational content can be a complicated endeavor for many academic institutions. Work is currently being done to reduce the technological and economic barriers to participating in OpenCourseware. A project called eduCommons, which is built by the Center for Open Sustainable Learning (COSL) at Utah State University, is making it easier for institutions share their course materials. This session will detail the evolution of eduCommons, from its first release on Plone 1.5.2, to the most current version that has just been released on Plone 3. Even if you are not involved in OpenCourseware, but are contemplating making course materials or educational content available on the web, you will want to learn about our approach to writing reusable Plone based educational products, and learn about best practices of how to publish educational content from those who have been involved in the OpenCourseware movement.
MOOCs, Automation, Artificial Intelligence and Pedagogical AgentsGeorge Veletsianos
ย
Open courses are a sociocultural phenomenon. This phenomenon represents symptoms, responses, and failures facing Higher Education. In this talk, I examined open courses and MOOCs from a variety of angles and discussed the degree to which MOOCs have portrayed education as a product that can be packaged, automated, and delivered. Empirical research on the design and development of pedagogical and intelligent agents that may be used in MOOCs was also presented.

Trends and issues in open educational resources and massive open online coursesAva Chen
ย
The Internet revolution has facilitated the concept of openness now more than ever. A number of current technologies support the paradigm of modern education in terms of creation, communication, and collaboration. Various open educational learning resources, tools, and pedagogical approaches are used in teaching and learning. Open educational resources (OERs) is one of examples that represent a global phenomenon in an innovation approach that promote unrestricted access as a possible solution for bridging the knowledge divide in higher education. OERs open up opportunities to create, share, and facilitate learning and ethical practice by creating, using, and managing by offering a wider array of educational resources among a greater diversity of global learners. Its trends and movements have become more prominent as not only a phenomenon but as a way of improving the quality of education. OERs alone are not sustainable on their own dimension. It has to combine concepts from different inter-disciplinary areas such as education for sustainable development and business perspectives. Therefore, this seminar focuses on the discussion of current trends, issues, and example of current global practices of OERs and MOOCs.

Building a humane CMS for Plone: updated tutorialVincenzo Barone
ย
Out of the box, Plone can be difficult for content managers to use, especially if they are infrequent contributors or non-technical users. This frequently leads to problems like wrong choices for content types, content places in wrong places, 'forgotten', abandoned content. This talk looks at tested best practices for making your Plone site easier to use for these content editors, and is appropriate for intranets and public sites. It demonstrates how to disable complex features you may not want, and suggests techniques that will allow your users to understand concepts like where to put content, how to tag it, and how to approve it. This talk was presented at the Plone Conference 2006, and is updated and being presented now as a hands-on tutorial, demonstrating how to apply this techniques on a real site.
Trust the power of Plone and build the trust in customers, colleagues and friends. Plone is, for many aspects, such a good product that it fails sometimes in presenting itself right.

As many Plone users already know, one of the most useful features that comes out of the box with Plone is the workflow of the contents. Plone comes not just with predifined workflow definitions but with a very powerful workflow engine which let you customize the life cycle of your content in the way you like more. You can manage security, task assignment and publishing state of your content, you can support the work of your editors and improve their work experience. Althoug it is a simple tool many Plone users still think about portal_workflow as a very obscure object. This session will try to explain many common and creative uses of the workflow functionalities in the newest releases of Plone, with lessons learned, common use cases and practical examples.

Introductory slides for a workshop on updating the e-learning quality assurance benchmarks of the E-xcellence NEXT project http://www.eadtu.nl/e-xcellencelabel
An introduction to Open Educational Resources delivered to coursework masters students at the University of Cape Town March 29, 2012. Covers open education resources, Creative Commons licensing, issues for educators engaging in open education, curation, metadata, and new forms of open education such as massive open online courses.
This presentation will introduce the exciting terrain of OER, identify the social, technical, legal, and financial motivators that are enabling the movement, and demonstrate how it has the potential to change academic practice and create new avenues for collaboration and feedback. He will argue that in adopting and familiarising oneself with OER practice academics can become โglobal scholarsโ, embracing Web 2.0 tools and open licensing systems which have the potential to enhance and increase the reach of their knowledge.
The presentation will detail an African universityโs journey towards institutionalizing support for open educational resources. The talk intends to provide a base with which OER advocates can encourage African academic leaders to embrace openness and to highlight some of the benefits not only for the global community but also for the institution, students and contributing academic.
This is the microslot presentation I gave at Oxford Geek Night 6 on 22nd April 2008. I wanted to give a brief overview of what is happening in eLearning, the possible things it could lead to, and what other developers can be doing to help prevent this becoming a โpurchasable productโ in schools.

Landscape of the Future: Open Content, Open Knowledge, Open SharingBrandon Muramatsu
ย
OERs are educational resources--textbooks, instructional modules, simulations, multimedia applications--that are freely available for use, reuse, adaptation, and sharing. They are usually released under a Creative Commons or similar license that supports open or nearly open use of the content. OERs expand access to high-quality instructional resources in formal and informal learning environments and can drive innovation to support and enhance teaching. Educators can endorse, adopt, and improve OERs, resulting in instructional materials and resources that embody what the educational community deems most valuable. Learners can access OERs to direct their own learning. The presenters will introduce and review the OER movement, and highlight several OER initiatives--such as MIT's OpenCourseWare project, the Open University's Open Learn, and Open Learning: Bridge to Success.
Presented by Brandon Muramatsu and Jean Runyon at eLearning 2012 in Long Beach, CA.
โFor most of the 20th century, lectures provided an efficient way to transfer knowledge, but in an era with a perfect video-delivery platform โ one that serves up billions of YouTube views and millions of TED (technology, entertainment, design) Talks โ why would anyone waste precious class time on a lecture?,โ write Associate Medical School dean, Charles Prober and business professor, Chip Heath, in The New England Journal of Medicine.
This paper presents a comparative analysis of Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS) Learning Management System (LMS). Following a selection process we analyze the functionalities and characteristics of 8 tools commonly used in formal and informal education. More specifically we focus on the availability of different tools concerning communication and assistance, such as, forum, email, calendar, portfolios, etc. Our analysis showed that despite their similarities, the appropriateness of different FLOSS LMSs can be greatly affected by the specific needs of students, instructors and institutions.

Sally Kleinfeldt - Plone Application Development PatternsVincenzo Barone
ย
In 2004 The Nature Conservancy adopted Plone as the platform for ConserveOnline.org, a community site for sharing conservation information. Since then, we have gained experience implementing several successful Plone intranet applications, made plenty of mistakes, and learned how to - and how not to - approach new Plone projects. This talk will compare our experiences developing two very different intranet Plone applications that manage conservation information. The first application has a complex data model with a relational database backend and makes minimal use of Archetypes. Its requirements - including data model and user interface - were rigidly specified based on a spreadsheet tool. The second application is Archetypes-based and was developed using UML modeling and ArchGenXML. It has a simple data model, uses the ZODB for storage, and its requirements were more loosely specified. From the lessons we learned on these projects, we have developed a set of application pattern definitions to guide us when choosing technologies and estimating costs. We think these pattern definitions can help managers, integrators, and people new to Plone understand when to use Plone, when not to use Plone, and how to structure their interactions with clients to ensure a successful Plone project.
Where's the source, Luke? : How to find and debug the code behind PloneVincenzo Barone
ย
Plone, being a python based CMS written as a project for the Zope application server, consist almost entirely of python modules and a number of configuration files. Python source code is loved by many in the community for its explicit readablity; however, for many experienced software developers, coming over to the Plone technology stack can be a haunting experience. It seems everything is hidden away as pickled object in the ZODB, and that layers of magic prevent one from understanding how it works and how to affect change. This presentation will explain to the novice: - how to track down the python source behind Plone - how to take advantage of rich open source tools like ctags and pdb - best practices for getting started with file system product development
ItalianSkin: an improvement in the accessibility of the Plone interface in or...Vincenzo Barone
ย
The Italian government has made a law specifying the accessibility requirements (the most famous is the usage of the Strict XHTML) for public administration websites. To enable Plone front- and back-end to be compliant with these specifications the ItalianSkin project was initiated, but its development has gone beyond the simple implementation of the law and has continued with the objectives of making Plone wholly functional with screen readers for blind people and providing developers with automatic tools to improve the accessibility of their own sites. We would recommend this talk to anyone developing websites and in particular to those who are responsible for accessibility.
In this session I will describe possibilities for everybody to make Plone more known. This includes how to leverage the power of social media such as blogging, videoblogging and podcasting but also spreading the word about Plone by attending unconferences like Barcamps or being active in Second Life. This talk is targeted to everybody who want to make Plone more popular.
Wichert Akkerman Plone Deployment Practices The Plone.Org SetupVincenzo Barone

The plone.org and plone.net websites are the first confrontation with Plone for most users. It is important that they perform well and are stable. With almost 4 million page views per day and thousands of LDAP users plone.org and plone.net are examples of a complex deployment setup requiring LDAP, caching and load balancing - all on a single machine. I will describe how the Plone websites are build and how those practices can be applied to other sites, making it possible to scale upwards to bigger sites or make smaller sites more efficient.
Philipp Von Weitershausen Untested Code Is Broken CodeVincenzo Barone
ย
If you're one of those programmers who think that subtle bugs only happen to other people, or that only bad programmers need extensive testing, this talk is for you.
Any non-trivial piece of software should be accompanied by an appropriate suite of automated tests. Your Plone products are no exception. By understanding approaches to automated testing and following good working practices, you can improve the quality of your code, as well as your confidence in your own work.
In this talk, Philipp von Weitershausen and Martin Aspeli will take you through the theory and practice of unit testing, integration testing and functional testing. Through real-world examples, you will learn that testing is not only necessary: it can be fun too!

ย
This technical presentation will cover many aspects of what one might encounter when a plone site is to be deployed in a highly demanding environment. And for what it's worth, these are not only theoretical examples, but they have also been proven to work in real life. The following items will be presented: * High Availability architecture * Clustering with ZEO * Synchronizing Data.fs * Load Balancing * Sticky Sessions * Caching * Single Sign-On
Subtyping is a new pattern for extending the functionality of existing content types as provided by Plone. Zope 3 enables subtyping using adapters and views. After this session, attendees will be capable of adding additional functionality to content types using subtyping and Zope 3. The Plone4Artists suite of projects will be used to demonstrate existing uses of subtyping. Attendees will be expected to understand the basics of the Zope 3 CA particularly concerning interfaces, adapters, and views. They will also need to understand the basics of ATContentTypes and how they relate to Plone.
Alec Mitchell Relationship Building Defining And Querying Complex Relatio...Vincenzo Barone
ย
The current story for relating content in Plone, via Archetypes reference fields, is limited and known to have poor performance in some cases. This talk will focus on the integration of Zope 3 tools for handling relationships (intids, zc.relationship) in Zope 2 via plone.app.relations. In particular I will be comparing the merits of these tools against existing methods (Archetypes references, using a separate RDBMS for content relationships), discussing particular applications for which they may be useful, and some areas in which they fall short. The comparison to existing relationship modeling tools will cover performance, flexibility, and convenience. To illustrate the relative convenience, I will give a brief overview of the plone.app.relations API, from the lower level index and relationship container to the high level API for making queries and defining relationships. The discussion of applications will focus on a some real world uses. These include social networking, defining complex taxonomies, having content appear attached to multiple locations, and other things for which Plone typically would not be suitable (these tools are in use at http://www.thedailyreel.com). In particular, I'll discuss how the default relationship attributes and query methods from the API can be used to model each of these applications. Finally, I'll discuss the areas in which these tools may fall short in terms of performance and flexibility, and where an RDBMS or specialized catalog may be necessary.
The Wageindicator Foundation deploys Plone for it's world-wide portals on wage information. Moreover, Plone serves as an application platform for most of the web based tools used to create questionnaires, salarychecks and other interactive content. The Wageindicator Foundation was started in 2000 in the Netherlands, and is now the hub of an international collaboration between universities, research institutes, trade unions and commercial parties. The goal of the foundation is to share and compare wage information, and so to contribute to a transparent labor market. The ideological stance of the foundation means that Open Source and free software is preferred. The separate sites collect over 400.000 visitors per month, served by four clusters of two machines each, hosted in the USA, India and the Netherlands. Techniques involved are HA-Clustering, load-balancing, caching, remote distribution of new releases for software.
Tom Lazar Using Zope3 Views And Viewlets For Plone 3.0 Product DevelopmentVincenzo Barone

A hands-on workshop on how to use Zope3 Views and Viewlets in Products targeted for Plone 3.0 (and why you would want to do so). Special emphasis will be on best practices in general, handling and validation of forms and how Zope3's shiny new toys make it easier to write reusable code and cleaner markup. Finally, the talk will deal with how Views and Viewlets can help you make your product better cacheable. Although the talk is targeted at Plone integrators who already have experience using the older CMF-based approach it will also try to address people new to Plone who want to customize it in a future-proof manner.

NGOs and non-profits have become important actors in both the development of public policy and in deployment of technology for positive social change. The Open Society Institute (OSI), a private operating and grantmaking foundation, aims to shape public policy to promote democratic governance, human rights, and economic, legal, and social reform. On a local level, OSI implements a range of initiatives to support the rule of law, education, public health, and independent media in over 60 countries. At the same time, OSI works to build alliances across borders and continents on issues such as combating corruption and human rights abuses. Recently, OSI engaged Plone and open source systems for a comprehensive knowledge management system to bolster its operations and support its objectives.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
ย
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.
