This lesson plan aims to teach students how to identify trustworthy websites. It begins with a discussion of fake photos that spread online during Hurricane Sandy. Students then learn that anyone can publish online, unlike printed materials which have editors and fact-checkers. To determine if a website can be trusted, students work in pairs to evaluate sites using criteria like whether the author is identified and sources are cited. They analyze websites on the topic of year-round education to practice the evaluation skills.
How Teacher Motivations Shape Digital LearningRenee Hobbs

Social media and education: advantages and disadvantagesJuana Berroa
This presentation is about the importance of social media in language learning/teaching process in this current digital era.
Social media is an amazing tool to motivate language learners because it can be adapted to any social context, age and culture since it is possible to customize learning according to learners and teachers' needs.
Blogging As Pedagogic Practice Across the CurriculumKenneth Ronkowitz
Discussion and research on blogs and teaching and learning often focuses on them as a technological tool. This presentation looks at the use of blogging as a way to address traditional writing practices such as e-portfolios, audience, publishing, copyright and plagiarism, authentic writing, and writing in a digital age in varied disciplines.

The 411 on Facebook: An FYI for TeachersAPatterson79
This power point presentation provides a brief description of social networking, specifically focusing on Facebook. The reasons why children use it, the pros and cons of it, and how to keep kids safe on Facebook are all addressed in this presentation.
Some say that education is one of the last sectors to adopt new technologies. If this is true, could it be because of the time required to overcome a learning curve of its features, time to understand the security and privacy issues involved, time to practice use of the app personally--and finesse its use with students, or time to collaborate in the communities and networks the app makes possible?
Some educators remain skeptical or even resistant to the adoption of social media in education; others are undecided, needing details about the benefits for students or the techniques required in order for the app to be implemented in a learning setting.
Some educators embrace social media in their practice. The moment this deck is published, some of those individuals might say how could the author have missed ______ ? It is true that in a world of apps, we have a tendency to adopt one that has been made understandable to us first, or one that grabbed our attention because it did something that the others would not do, or one that the media said was a rising star.... This deck is subject to these factors. This deck takes a decidedly safe approach with including some of the heavyweights.
This short presentation attempts to appeal to all kinds of readers: the skeptical, the undecided, the enthusiast, etc.
A movie trailer. For the cautious and time constrained, a simple image with action verbs that the application makes possible may be the most important feature of this deck. Possibly verbs that Marc Prensky would approve.
For the undecided or for the enthusiast, further notes are provided that explain how the application can be used by teachers and students with some detail.
The author is also a teacher-learner and will expand this deck to include other social media stars as cases can be made for their use in education.

Shared Learning from Ed Leadership ReadingsKim Crawford
On June 3rd, 2010, Avon Maitland teachers read articles from Educational Leadership while participating in a reciprocal teaching activity. They later shared what they had learned from the content of the articles by creating slides in google presentations. Here is the result of their work.
Quinnipiac's School of Education's MAT program required completion of a technology modules assessment and a performance task. This presentation acts as my performance tasks and shows how to use technology in the elementary classroom in regards to teaching biographies.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
