The Expanded Classroom: The impact of technology in a connected worldJonathan Shaw
The Media Department at Coventry University has developed a framework of highly innovative teaching, learning and creative-practice spaces – virtual and physical.
This paper will present the challenges we have faced, and the success we have encountered from the creation of a series of ‘alternative spaces’ for learning, which address the changing landscape of 21st Century education .
Students and staff have engaged with the spaces in different ways through a range of, discipline-led initiatives.
These initiatives have led to open educational classes, interactive blog spaces, online presentations of student work and international collaborations across courses within the media department.
We have recently developed a project that will enable students to engage more actively in the process so that they can create and develop student-led teaching and learning environments. This project will consider the spaces in which students are comfortable and prefer to learn as well as creating opportunities to challenge and question their learning styles.
The impact of the project extends beyond the teaching and learning environment and seeks to empower the students: by placing them at the heart of the process we hope that they will take more responsibility for their own learning, become more entrepreneurial in their approach to their own education and develop lifelong skills that extend far beyond the classroom.
With geographical barriers removed, educators have an opportunity to enlighten and empower students, through innovative, open and shared teaching and learning practices, to find their voice and positively contribute to a culturally rich and globally connected world.
Today’s teaching and learning should stimulate debate and encourage discovery; this paper places the student’s ownership, engagement and collaborative learning at the heart of that journey. Students, working as researchers and co-creators will develop collaborative, connected and technology-enabled models for higher education.

How to build an API your developers will love - Code.talks 2015, Hamburg by M...Michael Kuehne-Schlinkert
In the last years API spread out around the world. Every modern application provides or consumes at least one API. It became very easy to setup an API, but it became even easier to build APIs no one really wanted to use. Especially if you are providing a public API, your API should be so user friendly that your mom could use it or at least an inexperienced developer who never used an API before. As an independent software engineer I have worked with various clients designing, building, testing, maintaining and even redesigning private and public APIs; starting from a simple API for Single-Page-Application to a highly scalable and complex kickass API serving millions of users every day.
In this talk I would like to share my experience from these projects giving some guidelines on API design and answering some questions which occur in every API project like "How can we provide this operation and still being RESTful?" or "How should we version our API?" Besides an admirable API Design Testing, Documentation and Mocking are always sticking points, which I want to demystify by sharing my handy approach. With this talk I want to inspire you to apply some of these techniques in your next API project.
A brief history of eLearning as seen through the lens of my own personal experience. A look at current trends we're seeing that influence how we design and deliver online learning programs. Presented at ATD Tech Knowledge, January 14, 2016.
PowerApps, the Developer Story: Build an API to Integrate Corporate DataBram de Jager
Microsoft released PowerApps to a selective audience as a private preview in November 2015. It’s a service for enterprises to connect data across clouds to create intelligent business apps faster than ever before and share them to any device. Besides addressing the business developer and power user, it also provides opportunities for developers. This enables enterprises to expose corporate internal sources to be used within PowerApps and unleash the power of PowerApps combined with internal data sources. This session goes into the details of the possibilities for developers to leverage the Azure App Services and build APIs to use within your PowerApps. Live demos cover building and managing the API which exposes the internal data within a PowerApp on your device.

Solving the AL Chicken-and-Egg Corpus and Model ProblemNeil Rubens
paper: http://www.lrec-conf.org/proceedings/lrec2016/pdf/28_Paper.pdf
tool: https://github.com/move-tool/gephi-plugins
Active learning (AL) is often used in corpus construction (CC) for selecting “informative” documents for annotation. This is ideal for focusing annotation efforts, but has the limitation that it is carried out in a closed-loop manner, selecting points that will improve an existing model. When there is no model, or the task(s) is even under-defined (such as studying corpora-less phenomena), use of traditional AL is inapplicable. To remedy this, we propose a novel method for model-free AL that focuses on utilising phenomena as desirable characteristics. We introduce a tool, MOVE, that helps iteratively visualise and refine these characteristics. We show its potential on a real world case-study of a corpus we are developing.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
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!

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
