This document discusses the need for data interoperability to enable lifelong learning analytics. It notes that currently most learning analytics focus on understanding and optimizing formal learning environments rather than the learner perspective across multiple contexts. The lack of interoperability between different education systems means data is often stored in incompatible ways, making analysis difficult. The document proposes using open standards like xAPI to better link learning data across systems and support personalized, lifelong learning through interoperable analysis.
This is my talk from the PyDataLondon conference in May 2016. I outline some time management techniques and useful learning resources for those interested in transitioning into data science.

Overcoming Supply Chain Management Solutions with Big Data AnalyticsAlexis Global
Big data enables you to quickly model massive volumes of structured and unstructured data from multiple sources. For supply chain management, this can help increase visibility and provide deeper insights into the entire supply chain. Leveraging big data, your supply chain organizations can improve your response to volatile demand or supply chain risk, for example, and reduce the concerns related to the issue at hand. It will also be crucial for you to evolve your role from transactional facilitator to trusted business advisor.

From Content Strategy to Drupal Site Building - Connecting the dotsRonald Ashri
Content strategy is, undoubtedly, a hot topic these days. A lot is being said that spans the range from concerns regarding the ability to display content on any device to the ability to drive engagement and increase traffic through better content creation and social media strategies. In this presentation we will connect the dots between these issues and practical Drupal site-building concerns with tools that are readily available now.
We will show, through specific examples and references to available modules, how different approaches to content strategy can be practically implemented on Drupal sites. The aim is to equip Drupal site-builders with a handy toolkit that will allow them to both implement a content strategy for their sites as well as better exchange information with content strategists.
The examples will include:
- Different approaches to building content types so as to empower content creators to create a range of different structures.
- Best practices in using vocabularies (fixed, open, user-generated, moderated, etc) or where alternative categorization methods may be relevant.
We will also discuss:
- Editorial calendars and scheduling.
- The true benefit of workflows (and how, sometimes, they can be a disadvantage).
- Analytics and how the ability to measure the effects of any strategy is as important as defining the strategy itself.
Attendees will go away with practical examples and techniques that they can apply to their sites as well as a better understanding of what content strategy really is and how they can use it to improve their sites.
The examples are a result of our own experiences in helping both clients develop their content strategy as well as applying it on italymagazine.com, an in-house product of ours. We grew italymagazine.com to a relevant online digital brand with a strong community by expressing our content strategy ideas through the tools that Drupal 7 made available to us. The resulting ~250% increase in traffic over 3 months is a testament to both the value of a content strategy as well as the power of Drupal to allow you to flexibly and iteratively support it.

Development and Deployment: The Human FactorBoris Adryan
Thingmonk 2017: End-to-end IoT solutions are often highly integrated. Even small changes to the UX of a product can have profound impact on hardware requirements, while physical constraints such as battery capacity can dictate software architecture. 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.
In November 2016, Liz Russell and Ksenia Dynkin of Bluecadet presented the STC-PMC with a case study about best practices learned from a project their company did for the Hoover Mason Trestle, a historical landmark inBethlehem, Pennsylvania. They spoke about the research that needed to be done, the content development process, the storytelling strategy and framework they devised, and how they translated the content strategy for user-friendly kiosks and apps for visitors' mobile devices when visiting the Hoover Mason Trestle.
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.
Artificial Assistants: How can I help you? by Christopher CurrinChristopher Currin
Chatbots are not equal; with different forms permeating our lives more and more. Virtual assistants are increasingly relevant for businesses and our day-to-day lives. Chatbots have become ubiquitous for interactions, yet ‘reasonable’ intelligence remains elusive.
In this talk, we explore and explain their underlying architectures and capabilities to understand what makes them work, their weaknesses, and future improvements.
Design principles from a technology and human perspective will be disseminated with examples of current production systems and their impact. Furthermore, the audience will have the opportunity to advance these best practices.
Resources will be made available, so the technology is relevant, practical, and accessible.

Data Modelling is an important tool in the toolbox of a developer. By building and communicating a shared understanding of the domain they're working with, their applications and APIs are more useable and maintainable. However, as you scale up your technical teams, how do you keep these benefits whilst avoiding time-consuming meetings every time something new comes along? This talk reminds ourselves of key data modelling technique and how our use of Kafka changes and informs them. It then examines how these patterns change as more teams join your organisation and how Kafka comes into its own in this world.
