Oruta privacy preserving public auditing for shared data in the cloud
With cloud data services, it is common place for data to be not only stored in the cloud, but also shared across multiple users. Unfortunately, the integrity of cloud data is subject to skepticism due to the existence of hardware/software failures and human errors. Several mechanisms have been designed to allow both data owners and public verifiers to efficiently audit cloud data integrity without retrieving the entire data from the cloud server.

Milestone #2
The Cold War: Cuban Missile Crisis
Following the end of World War 2, the United States began to fall back into the normal policies of avoiding any types of commitments with allied nations that would possibly lead to the commitment of America troops overseas. While this would be the most favorable foreign policy, with the old superpowers of Great Britain and France now seemingly unable to handle the load as the policemen of the World, The United States knew that it had to take a heavier role in foreign affairs.

Instructor Guidance
Week 4
Congratulations to everyone to making it to week four! We are officially past the half way mark. This is a good time to take a step back and take stock of everything you have learned so far. If you are behind on your work for the course, it might be a good time to reach out to your instructor to see what you can do to get caught up.
This is also a good time to go over the sources that you have found for your final project, reading carefully and closely. It might help to keep researching at the Ashford Library (see the week three guidance for more help finding sources). As you read over your sources, ask yourself “what are they saying about the topic, and how can I use what they are saying to support what I want to say”. Also, take notes as you read, so that you can go back and use useful materials from sources. Use quotes sparingly and make sure that you explain the quote and put it in the context of your own thinking.

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.

causal analyses and to interpret primary sources. They will construct sound historical arguments and perspectives
on which informed decisions in contemporary life can be based.
Learning Expectations:
The student will
5.1 understand the nature and major events of the Cold War.
2) Standard Number: 6.0 Individuals, Groups, and Interactions

also use textual primary source evidence to evaluate the pros and cons of each of the aforementioned possible
responses that John F. Kennedy could have pursued.
3) Students will use secondary source materials to conclude lasting outcomes of the Cuban Missile Crisis.
4) Students will use various primary and secondary sources to evaluate the impact that the Cuban Missile Crisis and
the decisions of individuals had on the daily lives of Americans during the Cuban Missile Crisis.
9. Reasons for putting missiles in
Cuba
-Strategic nuclear balance
-To protect Cuba
-Strategic attempt to remove western influences from Berlin
-To bolster Soviet prestige
-To probe American intentions
15. U.S. President John F. Kennedy
In 1960, at the age of 43, John F. Kennedy
became the youngest elected President in
U.S. history, during a period of growing
tensions in the U.S.-Soviet Cold War rivalry.
Soon after taking office in 1961, he
authorized the “Bay of Pigs” invasion led by
the CIA and exiles from Cuba, whose
government had been overthrown by
communist rebels in 1959. This failed to
overthrow leader Fidel Castro, and was a
major embarrassment to Kennedy.
Tensions with the Soviet Union further
escalated during the 1961 Berlin Crisis.
These events set the stage for the Cuban
Missile Crisis.
16. Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev
Khrushchev became First Secretary of the
Communist Party of the Soviet Union in
1953 after a power struggle following
Stalin’s death, and served as Premier from
1958 to 1964. Khrushchev began efforts to
“de-Stalinize” Soviet society. However, in
1961 tensions between the superpowers
escalated over the Berlin Crisis. In the
spring of 1962 Khrushchev made the
decision to place Soviet missiles in Cuba
secretly in order to give a quick boost to
Soviet missile power, and to strengthen the
USSR’s bargaining position regarding the
Berlin question.
17. Prime Minister of Cuba Fidel Castro
In January 1959 Fidel Castro’s revolutionary
forces seized power. While the Cuban
leader initially claimed this was not a
communist revolution, a year later Cuba
formally aligned itself with the Soviet Union.
Relations with the United States
deteriorated further in 1961when the U.S.
supported CIA-trained anti-Castro exiles in
the Bay of Pigs invasion – a failed attempt
to overthrow Castro and a major blow for
President Kennedy. In this context, in the
summer of 1962 Castro accepted the Soviet
offer to install missiles in Cuba as a
deterrent to a U.S. invasion.
25. JFK’s Five Options
1. Do nothing; ignore the missiles in Cuba.
2. Open direct negotiations with Khrushchev asking that the missiles
be withdrawn.
3. Order a blockade of Cuba until the missiles are removed.
4. Send a warning to Castro and Khrushchev, and if the dismantling of
the missile sites is not underway within 24 hours, order an air strike
against the sites.
5. Order an air strike against the missile sites with no prior warning.
