Learning Lean: Using Flash Builds to Learn from Your UsersAlex Humphreys
The JSTOR Labs team has been using Flash Builds – high-intensity, short-burst, user-driven development efforts – in order to prototype new ideas and get to a user saying “Wow” in as little as a week. In this talk, I’ll describe how we’ve done this. I’ll use two case studies to illustrate the importance of getting user input throughout the process, highlighting what your users can tell you – and what they can’t.
JSTOR Labs and Folger Shakespeare Library partnered to create Understanding Shakespeare (http://labs.jstor.org/shakespeare). the site is now being used regularly by Shakespeare students and scholars. In this talk, I'll dive into what powers the tool, what we have been able to do on top of it (including introducing an open and public api to its data), and where we'll go from here.

create a visual storyboard expressing what happens to a couple stranded on a road trip. Select and arrange images that complete the story from the point where the opening narration leaves off.
DO NOT STORYBOARD THE OPENING NARRATION.
All steps are highly unique to your specific project, therefore problem-solving and critical thinking skills are necessary.
read the paragraph below. It sets the stage for you to complete the story using a
visual storyboard
—a sequence of still images deliberately arranged to represent the events of a story to be filmed, in the order they will be finally edited and screened;
Memorial Day—the unofficial start of summer. John and Linda had been anticipating the time off from work. John is a teacher and Linda is a bank teller. They live in Miami. They had made plans to visit Linda’s mom in Orlando and maybe go to Disney World or Universal Studios during the three-day weekend. On Thursday night, they had packed their bags for a three-day excursion, and as soon as they got off from work on Friday afternoon, they were on the road. It was a trip they had made many times before, but this time it would be different. Sawgrass fires forced I-95 and the Turnpike to shut down for long stretches. They had to get off the main highway and seek alternative routes. With heavier than usual traffic on a holiday weekend, what was normally a four-hour trip extended late into the night. Then the car’s left front tire blew out, and they had to pull over in an unfamiliar town. Both John and Linda’s cell phones were not working...
Write an outline expressing what will happen to John and Linda
FROM THE POINT WHERE THE NARRATION LEAVES OFF
—
THIS OPENING NARRATION WILL NOT BE STORYBOARDED. ALSO, DO NOT INVENT A DIFFERENT OPENING SITUATION (PLEASE CONTINUE THE STORY OF THE STRANDED COUPLE).
The goal of the story is to create an emotional experience for the audience by identifying with the main characters by creating
empathy
. Be sure to include emotions and experiences that might be familiar to the audience—mostly young adults in college, like yourself.
Conflict
occurs when the main characters encounter, and must overcome, obstacles. The story winds down after all the conflicts are
resolved
. In the movies, the guy and girl live happily ever after—The End.
Make your story resolve the conflicts in the plot—or not,
the couple might be unable to reach their destination due to unforeseen circumstances. Don’t end the story abruptly after the required number of slides (24), but let the audience understand what happens to them.
Think about how you can reveal time, wind, or hunger—things that cannot be naturally shown in visual form.
Search Unsplash.com, Pexels.com, Google Images, flickr.com, iStockPhoto.com, or other online sources of photographs for images to complete the story. Alternatively, your storyboard may be hand-drawn (as was Saul Bass's storyboard for
Psycho
), then digitized. As another alternative, you may stage.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
