Insight Strategy Group provides research and consulting services to big brands and media companies. CEO Stacey Matthias will take a look at general kids' digital media trends and how books fit into larger digital ecosystem. She'll look at how, when, where kids are consuming their books, games, movies, and video; and she’ll examine how child development impacts media consumption at each stage, and the role of books at each level.
Game-On Lesson Plans is a final project idea for a gamification class I took at Boise State University in their Masters of Education Technology program. This is the final presentation that is associated with the Google site I built to house the actual idea for Game-On Lesson Plans.
Storytelling is widely accepted as an effective way to help people learn. But what sort of stories should we be telling?
As part of a series of webinars run by the Learning and Skills Group, Brightwave's James Cory-Wright and Caroline Freeman share examples of storytelling in e-learning and discuss different narrative approaches:
• Scenario-led learning
• Longer or shorter form?
• What lessons can we learn from box-set binging?
• Telling the big story - campaign-based learning

Animation is done by displaying a series of frames of pictures using a wide range of 2D and 3D software. For 2D animation, Tupi, Ajax Animator, Pencil2D, Express Animator, Pivot Stickfigure Animator and TVPaint software are used. However, for 3D animation, Shade 3D, LightWave 3D, K-3D, Autodesk 3ds Max and 3D Movie Maker software are preferred. As a technique, animation began in the 1960s following its introduction by Frank W. Sinden, Michael Noll, Kenneth C. Knowlton, and Edward Zajac. Later, in 1973, animation was used in the production of the film Westworld.

Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Testing tools and AI - ideas what to try with some tool examplesKari Kakkonen
My slides at SAST conference in Stockholm 11.4.2024.
I cover a bit of background why AI is a big thing and also testers want to use it and can use it.
Then we discuss following use cases for AI help to testing tools
- anomaly detection8 (like sorting real defects out of lots of defect reports)
- prediction (where to focus testing, based on risks, previous code data, defect data...)2
- test automation tools made more change tolerant when Software Under Test changes
- test script creation more efficiently (e.g using LLM or AI assistants in scripting software to propose you test cases, test script content)
- test automation done almost autonomously (e.g. having general or default tests run first by AI, or having test automation bots running your test automation cases continuously
AI improves software testing to be more fault tolerant, focused and efficientKari Kakkonen
My slides as Finnish Testing Meetup 28.2.2024
AI supports testing in multiple ways: test automation becomes more autonomous and fault-tolerant, test selection is easier after AI analysis and recommendation, and manual and test automation productivity goes up with generative AI. Some background too on AI in general.
AI improves software testing through test automation, test creation and test ...Kari Kakkonen
The early 2024 version of my How AI improve testing presentation that I delivery since 5 years ago in different conference, webinars and customer events abroad and in Finland.
It gives some background on AI and talks about AI opportunities: in short test automation getting more fault tolerant, generative AI bringing efficiency to test creation, and advanced test selection with AI.
Kari Kakkonen Climate Impact of Software TestingKari Kakkonen
FiSTB Testing Assembly conference slides by me about software testing impact on climate. In other words sustainability of software testing. Or green testing. Whatever you call it, software testing also has an impact on climate (the carbon footprint), which you can minimize. But you can also have a handprint which is the positive impact of our actions to the climate.
Software testing has a climate impact, there's a carbon footprint also from testing. Of course there's a carbon handprint too, as in most ICT - we get to reduce carbon emission elsewhere by implementing and testing good ICT. But we also need to take care of our own backyard, meaning we need to understand how we can minimize the use of test environments, optimize test sets etc. to use less energy.
This slide deck is my keynote presentation from the software testing confererence SANAE.BEER.EX in Bratislava 8.11.2023.
Slides from DSTB conference talk at Copenhagen 31.10.2023. Recap of the Dragons Out book project. How children can learn software testing through a fantasy story approach. Why should they? To get them interested in software early on, some of them ending up as coders and some as testers later on. Some feedback about children learning, from teachers and from children themselves. An exploratory testing checklist inspired by children. Insights into how children test and how professional testers can utilize that knowledge.
Talk at Testwarez conference. I discussed the fact the climate impact of ICT and also software testing must be reduced. ICT also carries part of the carbon footprint, and even though we can help other industries minimize their carbon footprint, we can also minimize our own carbon footprint. It is there, and it can be significant if we don't optimize what we do.
I talk about test environments, using cloud, optimizing test suites, using automation for testing and for infrastructure and for continuous delivery. Throughout you can optimize.
Early quality means less cost, which luckily also means less climate impact, so it is easily argumented when making changes into how we create and test software.
My slides at SEETEST conference in Bucharest 20.9.2023 about climate impact of software testing, which is part of sustainability in software testing. I talk about Green ICT and Green Testing, and how Testing can measure also the Climate Impact of software in addition to other quality characteristics of testing. Also I discuss how test environments and other testing actions can include climate impact minimizing activities. Testing can both help coding become more green and also minimize the carbon footprint of itself.
I shared my views about how to become a multitalented tester in the Tester of the Year award event at Tieturi on 30.3.2023. The award is given annually by TestausOSY (FAST) and Tieturi. This event announced the 2022 winner and I presented as the 2021 winner.
The presentation discussed 5 aspects of Testing Roles, routes to testing, and adding new roles and skills to become even more multitalented. I also shared my journey to become a multitalented tester.
The slides are in English even though this time I talked in Finnish.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
