How can documentation become inherently Agile?eBranding Ninja
How can you foster a culture that gets your developers excited about documentation? How can you foster a culture that gets your developers excited about pleasing their customers?
Documentation is still the most important thing developers continually respond as most affecting their decision making. Frankly caring about documentation shows you care about the developer, whether external or internal. Yet, documentation is constantly pushed to the wayside, aligning that idea with Waterfall and top-down development. How do you then foster a culture that gets your developers excited to create documentation? And as an extension, how do you get your developers excited about pleasing their customers?
Start out by automating what you can and then creating a process. Documentation is something that requires discipline. It’s up to your team to identify what interruptions are constantly being pointed to as excuses for not completing the documentation. Then, you can put an investment into your documentation, looking to first solve and reduce those interruptions, making documentation the way you address repeated issues and make your customers more autonomous.
Documentation is actually particularly important to the Scrum process, where "documented" is part of the definition of "Done." Documentation can also be a good team-building exercise as it invites everyone to take ownership of their own piece. It also keeps everyone cognizant of keeping the code itself simple and self-explanatory. And it's especially important for team communication and collaboration as, with microservices, containers and the like, our developers gain autonomy, but there's a struggle to work out loud so you know what everyone else is doing.
Finally, someone should be in charge of managing the documentation -- someone with a tech background but some marketing savviness -- to curate it all, helping to make sure it's there and that it tells a clear story that's easy to search through, but that also supports the overall business proposition.

UX Poland 2016 - Jeff Gothelf - Almost Everything I've Learned From 5 Years o...UX Poland
Since the idea first percolated in 2010 through to its current state as a permanent hashtag on Twitter, Lean UX has created a new way of looking at how we design products and services. Equally as important, it has created a new way to look at working together with our colleagues in product management, software engineering, marketing and executive leadership. Have the countless memes, conferences, articles, blog posts, books and presentations made a difference? Has Lean UX made a difference? How have the ideas evolved since 2010?
In this talk, Jeff Gothelf, author of Lean UX, will recap his learnings from practitioner to author to teacher of Lean UX and the teams trying to adopt it. What’s worked? What hasn’t? Why? Where are things now and where are they headed? This tactical talk will cover all of that and more.

A holistic understanding of IoT is key to efficient implementation, the “T-shaped engineer” the star in every development team. Contrast this to intellectual silos and matrix organisation, and you may see why especially large companies fail to move quickly into IoT. Similar issues strike the application of IoT. Deploying a solution in the enterprise is just a cost factor if processes are not adjusted to leverage the connected device and its data. However, changes in process often affect companies across their entire organisational structure. This can require a change of mindsets, making the success of an IoT solution depending on the human factor.

Reframing Our Narratives: Advocacy and Action in Critical Timeschar booth
Advocacy and outreach are essential tools for creating and sustaining successful libraries, and in increasingly resource-strapped environments it is vital for libraries and librarians to effectively communicate our value. Advocacy is a process of identifying and shaping narratives that matter (and make sense) to our user communities, while outreach helps these ideas connect with stakeholders. When we “reframe” our outreach and advocacy narratives we acknowledge that libraries are dynamic, but that our core values of justice, access, and an informed and supported user population remain constant. Making this case can provide the foundation for creative advocacy strategies that help us build strong and lasting institutions.
Creative Reflection: The Critical Practice of Stepping Backchar booth
Reflective practice is the process of actively observing, understanding, and shaping pedagogy. Its associated skills include developing individual insight into the impact and practice of education through critical analysis, instructional design, theoretical grounding, and dialogue with peer educators. Also integral is gathering insight into the learner experience through meaningful assessment. Less often discussed is the role of creativity, experimentation, learner engagement, and the disruption of ingrained teaching habits and/or narratives; this keynote will explore strategies for cultivating a more holistic reflective practice in service of enriching and diversifying one’s teaching.

What is history? Why should we study history? Within the context of our stories
concerning Christopher Columbus, Native Americans, the Pilgrims, or slavery,
discuss how historians (Zinn and Loewen) have dealt with the above issues
specifically. How have history textbooks begun to complicate our histories even
further? With regard to the above topics, how have your readings and studies in
this class differed from the ways in which these topics have been portrayed (all the
way back to elementary school) to you in previous classes? In the quote above,
W.E.B. DuBois suggests that in our studies of history, when we skim over the bad
parts, our histories begin to lose their value as “incentive and example.” What
does he mean by this? What are the far-reaching consequences of the ways in
which so many of us have been taught history?

Libraries, Information Equity, & Economic Justicechar booth
Academic libraries are cultural institutions with massive resource and operational footprints. By orienting our missions purposefully toward information and economic justice, we have the capacity to reshape the scholarly information landscape while positively impacting the ability of individual learners and researchers to traverse it. This briefing explores the capacity of libraries and allied institutions to leverage individual and collective action to reduce the inextricably linked information and economic inequalities our users face. The session will examine academic library practice through the lenses of information equity and economic justice, highlighting actions libraries and allied organizations can take in pursuit of increased resource parity and greater freedom from the entrenched information-for-profit systems that threaten our own budgets.

CSUSM Trans & Gender Non-Conforming Task Force: Report and Recommendations, 2017char booth
Download accessible PDF: http://bit.ly/csusmtranstf-report
In May of 2016, members of the California State University San Marcos (CSUSM) community issued an open letter to President Karen Haynes advocating for actions to encourage the inclusion of trans and gender non-conforming individuals at CSUSM. In November of 2016, President Haynes issued a call for participation in a Trans and Gender Non-Conforming Task Force (TGNCTF) “in an effort to ensure ongoing support for members of our Trans and Gender Non-Conforming community at Cal State San Marcos.” The TGNCTF was convened in December 2016 as advisory to the President, and by March 17th, 2017 was charged to “Review and make recommendations regarding protocols, programs and services for CSUSM Trans and Gender Non-Conforming Communities to include: Preferred Name Policy Implementation;; Restrooms;; Training;; Housing. Your participation and knowledge will greatly benefit the University and the goals we are working to achieve, which include providing an open, welcoming and safe environment all members of our community.”
In response to this charge, the TGNCTF is pleased to provide an overview of the current status of policies, procedures, and actions relevant to trans and gender non-conforming communities at CSUSM, and to provide recommendations to further improve the environment and experience of our trans students, staff, and faculty. We do so from a variety of perspectives, including those of trans- identified and trans-allied task force (TF) members, trans and allied communities at CSUSM, and stakeholders critical to the implementation of these recommendations. Careful consideration was given to federal and state law, as well as best practice guidance from organizations dedicated to trans advocacy.

Strategic Cartography: Identifying IL Intersections Across the Curriculumchar booth
Presentation at ACRL 2015 in Portland, OR.
Abstract: Curriculum mapping builds insight into the sequence of requirements and competencies a learner negotiates while on an academic path. When combined with data visualization, visual curriculum mapping (VCM) provides a holistic view of an entire educational community, highlighting pivotal points at which to introduce information literacy instruction, resources, and research support. This paper presents findings of a large-scale consortial VCM project in 2013-14, exploring anticipated and unanticipated outcomes and offering strategies applicable to other institutions.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

30. Academic libraries have long enjoyed
their status as the “heart of the
university.” However, in recent decades,
higher education environments have
changed… Community college, college,
and university librarians no longer can
rely on their stakeholders’ belief in
their importance. Rather, they must
demonstrate their value.
-Megan Oakleaf, 2010
