The developments in the field of AR hardware are having an effect on the type of software we'll be confronted with in the next 10 years. As an individual, and as society. What are the choices we have in this?
If you start wearing an #augmentedreality wearable, you'll be confronted with a new range of AR apps that make use of the always-on camera and the HUD in front of you. That also means a not of new and important configuration options, to control the role AR and related technologies will play in your life.

What are the costs of living your life as an augmented human?SNDRV
Once augmented reality glasses are comfortable enough to be worn throughout the day, we'll deal with the world around us through the apps on the device. What kind of software and services will we use? And what will it cost to live a pleasant augmented life?

This presentation was composed for innovation and development track of the 2nd NSvirtual conference in Novi Sad, Serbia. In the talk I focused on the reasons why we're not wearing AR glasses yet. With a hands-on perspective I addressed some of the current problems, how these can be avoided or what the industry will do to solve them. Assuming that Apple will indeed launch their AR wearable in 2020, these devices are going to appear in the world around us, so it's time to get familiar with the possibilities and impossibilities and foremostly, explore how AR glasses will influence our life, and what to do to remain in control.
Big Tech wants us to start wearing their AR wearables. It will make it even more difficult to escape from their 'surveillance capitalism'. This presentation explains how we can avoid this situation with DIY AI
Thanks to the current Facebook scandal, we are critically reviewing the impact the company has on our society. And that's happening just in time. Facebook is about to transform from a social media company with indirect influence to an augmented reality company with direct in-your-face influence.
For decades we've been told that we will all be wearing augmented reality glasses in the future. But that future is getting near, because all big tech firms are getting ready for the launch of AR wearables. Besides being a more immersive way to view funny little animating characters, what will it mean if we're wearing a Facebook AR wearable? It will cause Mark Zuckerberg to even further control our perspective on the world.
We've already gotten used to the smartphone as our personal assistant, guiding us towards appointments, even responsible for arranging some of our activities. But with AR devices this guidance will continue during our activities too. Tech companies are using us and our data to be able to control us. It's time for an approach with humans at the centre, and an API to help us to be the one making decisions - and having options to choose from!
If need to understand why things appear, we need to be aware of our own meta data too. Because that's defining why certain content is specifically targeting us. By monitoring where our own content and data ends up, we can choose if and how we allow any profiling to happen. Perhaps we only decide to keep Facebook for its front-end interface. If we're free to choose components, we can choose to avoid the untraceable Facebook algorithms, demand openness or pick a provider of a Machine Learning service that we trust.
With a growing ecosystem of life enhancing apps, services and components, we can choose how we want to be guided through the day. One example of such a component is "IF THIS THEN I", which is an initiative that is a hands-on way to explore the ways to take back control. With just a few basic rules, this system will not be comparable to the advanced algorithms of the big influential social media companies, but it's a start. Instead of awaiting what will happen to us, it's better to get started with the creation of alternatives. We've already gotten accustomed to devices and software monitoring us and telling us how we're doing, this system is no different. Not feeling happy? By knowing what makes you happy, you're able to change it by reconfiguring yourself. Get ready for the future: BE YOUR OWN ROBOT!

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).

5 Public speaking tips from TED - Visualized summarySpeakerHub
From their humble beginnings in 1984, TED has grown into the world’s most powerful amplifier for speakers and thought-leaders to share their ideas. They have over 2,400 filmed talks (not including the 30,000+ TEDx videos) freely available online, and have hosted over 17,500 events around the world.
With over one billion views in a year, it’s no wonder that so many speakers are looking to TED for ideas on how to share their message more effectively.
The article “5 Public-Speaking Tips TED Gives Its Speakers”, by Carmine Gallo for Forbes, gives speakers five practical ways to connect with their audience, and effectively share their ideas on stage.
Whether you are gearing up to get on a TED stage yourself, or just want to master the skills that so many of their speakers possess, these tips and quotes from Chris Anderson, the TED Talks Curator, will encourage you to make the most impactful impression on your audience.
