A Survey on Autism Spectrum Disorder and E-Learningrahulmonikasharma
Autism or mental imbalance is turmoil in the development and improvement of a mind or central nervous system that covers a huge range of skills, impairment and symptoms. The children who are experiencing autism (or mental imbalance) confront challenges in conveying and adjusting in the group as they experience difficulty in understanding what others feel and think. These days learning innovations changed instructive frameworks with amazing advancement of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). Moreover, when these innovations are accessible, reasonable and available, they speak to more than a change for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder. In this paper, a writing study and foundation study is done on the Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and E-Learning System for Autism Children.

3 Emerging Strategies to Advance Professional Learning in Digital EnvironmentsEDUCAUSE
Professional learning is changing rapidly as digital environments further expand knowledge exchange across time, distance, and devices. In this session we’ll explore microlearning, microcredentialing, and new digital learning designs and how advancements in these areas support professional growth, network development, and social learning. 2016 research in each of these areas will be shared that participants can use to benchmark and further evolve their organization’s digital professional learning plans.
Emerging Strategies to Leverage Disruptive Education TechnologiesEDUCAUSE
The world of education is changing rapidly as the new emerging power of the ‘sharing economy’ is about open knowledge exchange across time and distance, particularly through mobile devices. Technology continues to alter how we engage with what we are learning, how we collaborate and interact, and how we manage the overwhelming amount of information available to us. Our postmodern learning tools are being fashioned to work the same way that social networks are evolving. This decentralization of the knowledge base, emergence of new and disruptive technologies, and expectations of a personalized user experience puts pressure on the association community if they are not preparing for the future.

The Future of Digital Textbooks, Tools of Change, 2010John Warren
Technology is driving change in education as it is in publishing. Distance education has become more common in higher education; universities are putting podcasts, texts, and entire courses online. The spiraling cost of textbooks is rendering higher education unaffordable to many students, particularly in community colleges, where textbook costs often exceed tuition. In the K-12 market, digital textbooks have been making inroads into the classroom; a California initiative aims to replace many high school science and math texts with free, “open source” digital versions, while the new Democratic Leadership Council has proposed a “Kindle in Every Backpack.” While some may think of a digital textbook merely an electronic image of a paper product, others have employed the electronic format in broadening the spectrum of learning. This session examines the emerging future of digital textbooks, including open access; subscriptions; texts bundled with online study resources; innovative texts that include multimedia, simulation models, automated assessments; and business models that will allow publishers to survive and thrive in the future.

Working Successfully with Emerging Technologies and InnovationsEDUCAUSE
Continuously innovating and transforming our current practices is critical to keep pace with teaching and learning as it evolves. While there is no shortage of candidate innovations, the process by which to discover them, to select them for pilots, and to consider full-scale implementation, can be challenging. How should incubator models be structured? What should be the goals of innovation within our technology portfolios? How should we select technologies to pilot? What processes or rubrics are effective in pilots? Resources: http://tinyurl.com/goodpilot

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).

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.

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.

54. Reasons for Purchasing eBooks 14% of students have purchased a digital product as part of their studies Price is the primary factor Only way to obtain the textbook [out of stock, preference by the professor, custom PDF type eBook that the professor created for sale]. 18% of students who purchased an eBook did so because they enjoy the features 10% of students who purchased an eBook did so because they had never used one and were curious
55. Improved Performance or Efficiency Being able to search for a particular word or phrase in the textbook has improved my efficiency in studying. I use my laptop extensively and take notes on it, so having a copy of the book on my laptop at all times helped me work on my class work whenever I want without having to worry about whether or not I have the book with me. No 10-lb book to carry around = epic win. Top 5 Current Features, as rated by students: Reading Controls (paging, zoom…) Finding terms in a book Creating Highlights and Annotations Reviewing previously created Highlight and Annotations Managing your Digital Library

64. Overall Research Conclusions Given the opportunity, students are willing to experiment with reading and studying digitally. When students do read and study digitally, results indicate that they find it as effective or more effective than studying with the physical book. When students do read and study digitally, their responses to usability of features shows that their expectations are high. Expect basic features to be as good as print experience (e.g., notes and annotations.) Also, expect that there are compelling features that go beyond what is feasible in the physical book experience (e.g., tags across notes, organizational capabilities.)
65. Conclusions E-Reading in higher education is more about e-studying than e-reading. Evaluate solutions on the entire ecosystem Hardware , e-Reading/Study Software Available Content Tablets and portable devices are currently satellites to a PC/Mac base; this will change over time. Constantly poll your students and faculty. Don’t over commit--this is going to be a longer transition than other digital media.
66. Future Trends As portable and tablet capabilities improve, so will their ability to support e-textbook content/platforms. Content trends Increase in smaller and specialized content Increase in multimedia content New distribution models including subscriptions, open source content, and institutionally-developed. There will be a blurring of lines between e-readers, LMS, and internet resources.
71. Review mobile technologies and ask… What would be the ramifications and opportunities for learning if this technology were adopted? What kinds of teaching and learning engagements might this technology: make better or enable? If we decide to do a pilot, what kind of evaluation methodology can we overlay on the project to assess outcomes? What kind of additional research needs to be done concerning this technology?
