The document summarizes technological changes from 1969 to 2009 across several areas: participation, personalization, mobility, and real-time communication. It notes that in 1969 news and music consumption involved passive viewing of limited options on TV, whereas by 2009 participation, personalization, and commenting from all via citizen journalism and social media became prominent. Mobile technology advanced from limited to ubiquitous access to content and communication. Real-time viewing of world events also increased dramatically.
The document discusses fundamental design principles from a Christian perspective. It references biblical stories and concepts like the Tabernacle to illustrate principles of design such as structure, dimensions, symbols and their meanings. Design elements from nature like triangles, arches, honeycombs and fractals are also examined. The document advocates for thoughtful, well-executed design that solves problems and prevents them.
Striking a Balance: Middle Ground in Front-End DevelopmentNathan Smith
The document discusses balancing design and development in front-end work. It addresses stereotypes between designers and developers, and describes front-end developers as "midfielders" who ensure designers get credit and backend developers can focus on their work. The document also covers topics like web standards, accessibility, version control systems, frameworks, team dynamics and more.
As private and public actors build vast collections of personalized data based on individual internet usage, it becomes increasingly valuable to discuss how we view the internet as a function of the public sphere.
William Talbot invented the calotype process in 1840, creating the first photographic negatives. This allowed copies of photographs to be easily reproduced and shared. In 1888, Kodak invented roll film and produced cameras for non-experts, making photography widely accessible. Edwin Land further developed instant photography with Polaroid in 1947, allowing photos to be printed instantly from the camera. Digital cameras were invented starting in the 1990s and revolutionized photography by enabling photos to be viewed, edited and shared electronically. Camera phones, beginning in 1997, further advanced this by putting photography in most people's pockets and allowing real-time sharing on social media.
The document summarizes a presentation on cross-channel design given by Jess McMullin and Samantha Starmer. The presentation covered what cross-channel design is, why organizations should care about it, how to sell the need for it within an organization, using a case study and field research experience to discover touchpoints across channels, and various tools and methods for designing cross-channel solutions such as journey mapping, touchpoint matrices, and paper prototyping.
Photography is discussed as a means of self-expression. The document explores different forms of expression like art, poetry, comedy and their relationship to transferring feelings. It then discusses photography in more detail, noting that it allows expression through manipulating space, time and light. Examples of famous historic photographs are provided from the 1900s to today. Quotes from photographers emphasize the creative and emotional aspects of photography. The document suggests photography allows one to focus, share life experiences and perfect their craft. Limitations of smartphone photography are outlined around areas like bokeh, zoom and fast action. Overall it promotes photography as a way to find meaning and add value to one's life.

Change, Creativity, Curriculum and CommunityChris Betcher
The world has changed (a lot) and if we can't adapt we run the risk of becoming irrelevant and replaced. Creativity, and looking at the world in new ways will be what helps us thrive in this new world, where so many of the existing skills are being automated or shipped offshore. The curriculum that is supposed to provide opportunities for creativity often lacks the real teeth to do so and our job as contemporary educators is to make sure that creativity, innovation and thinking different are highly valued and rewarded in our classrooms, even if the system in general doesn't measure and support these things. We need to ensure that we do great things with kids in spite of the system. Finally, the impetus for maintaining our motivation and our understanding of the changing world can only come from surrounding ourselves with networks of like-minded people that can support us in our work every day.
Beyond The Mobile Web By Yiibu 110412113255 Phpapp01Therese Kokot
Mobile internet access is becoming ubiquitous, with over 1.3 billion people now using their mobile devices to access the internet. Context for how the internet is accessed has changed dramatically, with people now commonly using their phones, tablets, and other devices to engage in many online activities both brief and extended. This has disrupted traditional models of web design which focused on desktop access with predictable contexts. A new approach is needed to create engaging mobile content in this environment of tremendous diversity and unpredictability.
The document discusses how the internet and mobile technology have become integrated into everyday life. Key points include:
- The internet is no longer an activity confined to desktop computers, but something that people access constantly through mobile devices.
- There are now over 5 billion mobile subscribers globally, and mobile phones are becoming as powerful as computers were a few years ago.
- People use their mobile devices to engage in many activities like chatting, scheduling, shopping, and following up on things looked up on other devices.
- Mobile internet usage is shifting from just short activities to complementing and facilitating longer tasks like research, transactions, and important decisions.
Presented by Stephanie Rieger at Breaking Development in Dallas, April 11 2011 and Mobilism in Amsterdam, May 12, 2011.
Context is often cited as the single most important factor in design for the mobile medium. Mobile devices are of course 'mobile', but they are also small, always on, always with us, and can instantly connect us to the people we love. Mobile services must therefore be simple, social, and well-focussed--enabling us to quickly get things done on even the smallest screens.
This is all well and good, but mobile devices have changed. They may be mobile, but many have already stopped being 'phones'—nor do they resemble what we traditionally think of as computers. This presentation will explore how our use, and perception of mobile devices is changing, and how these changes may impact how we should design for them going forward.

The document discusses copyright law and its application to digital educational materials. It provides an overview of fair use and the TEACH Act, which allows certain copyrighted works to be used without permission in digital form for education. However, the TEACH Act has limitations and does not apply to all educational institutions. Educators still need to consider restrictions like only using reasonable portions of copyrighted works and not distributing materials for commercial purposes when sharing digital content.

Slides to support a workshop on visual thinking across the curriculum at the MADLAT Conference. Winnipeg, Manitoba, May 2013.
Over 80% of our brains are used interpreting visuals. It seems a waste not to take advantage this powerful channel into the minds of our students. What sorts of ways can a single image be used to tell stories and explore complex ideas in Math, Science, Language Arts or Languages classrooms? What could we do with a series of pictures? How can we do this beyond the time and space of the classroom walls and have our students generate a bank of powerful visuals to inspire future students to create even more powerful learning imagery?
In this hands on session participants will mash up their ideas with powerful images, painlessly share them with the group and spend the lion’s share of our time together thinking deeply and discussing our shared vision for what real learning looks like in our classrooms. We’ll touch on ideas of ethical and responsible use of technology, creative commons and some thoughts about visual design.
Bring your camera enabled mobile device. We’re gonna use it. And show you how to take better pictures in the process.

Freak Out, Geek Out, or Seek Out: Trends, Transformation & Change in Librarie...David King
This document discusses trends and transformations occurring in libraries. It notes that libraries now face competition from other information sources and must adapt to technological changes. Some key points made include:
- Libraries have transitioned from card catalogs to online public access catalogs (OPACs) to utilizing the internet and web-based resources.
- The emerging web is decentralized, multimedia, mobile, social, and two-way rather than one-directional.
- Libraries are using social media and their websites to engage in conversation with patrons and provide digital content and services in addition to physical locations.
Teaching and Learning in Context ...with a little help from the webCristina Costa
This document discusses using the web to enhance teaching and learning. It advocates moving beyond simply using the web as a book and instead utilizing it to create contexts for active, social, and personalized learning. Learners can become co-producers by collaborating, participating creatively, and assessing each other through blogs, stories, and other online works. When implemented properly, this approach to learning online can empower students and encourage autonomy, trust, and lifelong learning.
LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

62. But now for the first time it is possible to
individualize education—to teach
each person what he or she needs and wants
to know in ways that are most
comfortable and most efficient,
producing a qualitative spurt in educational
effectiveness.
--Howard Gardner in “The Next Big Thing: Personalized Education”, Foreign Policy, June 2009
63. Wherever and whenever personalized education
takes hold, the resulting world will be very different.
Many more individuals will be well-
educated because they will have learned in ways
that suit them best. Even more importantly, these
individuals will want to keep learning as they
grow older because they have tasted success and are
motivated to continue.
-- Howard Gardner

Editor's Notes
Changing gears to music...forty years ago we gathered together in big groups to listen to the hot groups of the day.
Now, oh wait..that hasn’t changed
Or has it?
Comparing participation as far as media creation goes from Woodstock to Bonnaroo
But let’s consider the Mindset from Beloit. Been doing it for 12 years. assembled these observations that help to identify the experiences that have shaped the lives—and formed the mindset—of students starting their post-secondary education this fall.
The Mindset List is not a chronological listing of things that happened in 1991, the year they were born. It is instead an effort to identify the worldview of 18 year-olds in the fall of 2009.
