The document is a presentation by Sadie Van Buren about using social networking tools to benefit both personal and professional knowledge work. It discusses how the presenter uses various social media sites as both a consumer and producer of content. Examples are given of how social tools help with tasks like finding answers, making connections, and staying informed of new developments. Recommendations are made to simplify tools used, measure their impact, and find a balance between sharing and privacy concerns when using these professional networks.

Roadmap to Blended Learning (4 Nov 2011)Wesley Fryer
Where are we headed in K-12 education with respect to technology and learning? What are the vehicles ("ships" in this metaphor using the Waldseemüller map) that will take us into this future? What activities should characterize effective blended learning in the future? These are Wesley Fryer's slides for a presentation on these topics for New York educational leaders in November 2011.

Roadmap to Blended Learning (October 2013)Wesley Fryer
These are Dr. Wesley Fryer's slides for his October 4, 2013, presentation in Canandaigua , New York, for NYSCATE leaders. The session description was: What is blended learning and why should educators embrace it? How can we move towards a vision of blended learning in our schools? This session presents an OVERVIEW, WAYPOINTS, and DIRECTIONS for the Roadmap to Blended Learning.
This is the slightly expanded version of a session I recently did in Elluminate via LearnCentral with the students in our course, BeyondWebCT: Integrating Social Networking Tools Into Language & Culture Courses. Kevin Gaugler of Marist College was our guest speaker.
This was the focus of the session:
How can educators filter and manage the abundant resources and information now available through the internet? In the spirit of collaboration and community building, many educators are turning to these mediated environments to learn with and from each other. In this session we'll explore some tools that can help us manage content of interest to us and that can provide our students and us the option of learning with and from those outside the traditional course environment.

Empowering Students as Digital Witnesses (Part 1 of 2)Wesley Fryer
Just as a stormchaser uses available technologies, knowledge and skills to pursue and document an impending thunderstorm, storychasers use their tools and abilities to document stories of local, regional, national or international interest. In our classrooms and after-school programs, as educators we can empower learners of all ages to become digital witnesses and responsible citizen journalists as storychasers. Whether on a school field trip, conducting research for a class project or school journalism assignment, or interviewing local residents to share about their lives and experiences, storychasers can and are utilizing a rich array of new media tools to create, communicate, and collaborate. Come learn how to join the storychaser's communication revolution, and catalyze the development of a diverse array of 21st century as well as traditional literacy skills with students in your local community who can become empowered storychasers! (This presentation was shared as the keynote address at the PodStock09 conference in Wichita, Kansas, on May 1, 2009.)

How much or how little you plan to communicate
depends on how many volunteers you have, their
communication skills and preferences, and the
preferences of your members. Keep in mind that any
communication is better than none, that your community
members understand that we are staffed by volunteers,
and that we have successful communities all across the
spectrum.
This is a basic Social Media plan, based on a Community
with limited super powers. Since your community will
have a different set of super powers and different
kryptonite, your basic plan will be your own. Use these as
a sample and then share your story with us.

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.
The Art of the Pitch: WordPress Relationships and SalesLaura Byrne
