Technology Enhanced Learning with CourseSites - Kulari Lokuge-Dona, Swinburne...Blackboard APAC
This presentation will discuss how Sri Lanka Institute Advanced Technological Education (SLIATE) staff members are using CourseSites to provide technology enhanced learning environment to facilitate better learning opportunities to their students. The SLIATE is government funded higher education institution in Sri Lanka that predominantly delivers courses face to face. With limited resources student's learning has been restricted to the classroom environment which is limited to couple of hours a week for each subject. However with the government initiatives to reduce education divide, staff members were encouraged to undertake professional development activities and research to introduce innovative course development and delivery methods.
With introduction of MOOCs and other professional development activities, SLIATE staff members were exposed to variety of teaching and learning tools, and new course delivery methods (Warusavitharana, 2014). A team of staff members from SLIATE Dehiwela branch trialled a blended learning approach using CourseSites, the free Learning Management System provided by Blackboard. The pilot project explored whether use of Learning Management System with online resources and quizzes could be used to improve classroom participation, student engagement, and provide feedback to student while reducing academic workload. This session will present the insights of the development, implementation, and results from the projects. It will also highlight the benefits and challenges that staff and students found during the pilot.
Delivered at Innovate and Educate: Teaching and Learning Conference by Blackboard. 24 -27 August 2015 in Adelaide, Australia.

This slides shows about the Smart School. It emphasizes the concepts, comparisons between the Smart School from the other school, teaching and learning materials, use of ICT as an enabler, progress of Smart School In Malaysia and the challenges faced since the inception of the school.The Malaysian Smart School is a learning institution that has been systematically reinvented in terms of teaching-learning practices and school management in order to prepare children for the Information Age
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Let's dive deeper into the world of ODC! Ricardo Alves (OutSystems) will join us to tell all about the new Data Fabric. After that, Sezen de Bruijn (OutSystems) will get into the details on how to best design a sturdy architecture within ODC.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

2. Introduction
❖ The Smart Schools implementation is one of the seven
flagship applications that are part of Malaysia’s
Multimedia Super Corridor (MSC) project.
❖ The Malaysian Smart School is a learning institution
that has been systemically reinvented in terms of
teaching-learning practices and school management in
order to prepare children for the information age. It also
uses technology platform as a medium.
❖ The objectives of the Smart School Curriculum are to
help students achieve overall balanced development
which is to integrate knowledge, skills, values and
correct use of language.
3. Challenges of implementation of smart
school in Malaysia:
Lack of technological Infrastructure in school
Teachers and staff competency to handle ICT devices
Students are passive
Level of awareness in all people
The pressure of examination and heavy syllabus
The issue of time constraint
4. Conclusion:
❖ Smart School policy has been planned and managed
to prepare Malaysian students to become more
knowledgeable and skilled workers.
❖ This opportunity will help students to enhance and
promote creative and critical thinking.
❖ Government should emphasized the views of the
teachers and students on experiences in Smart School.
❖ Listen to voice of teachers and students in
implementing change in school are important
❖ Nowadays, smart school are more improving and
achieving the goals.
