This document discusses research on technology use among homeless youth. It finds that while the digital divide once separated those of differing income levels and education, homeless young adults now frequently use technology like social networking sites. They use sites like Facebook primarily to stay connected to friends and family rather than for recreation. Studies have found that 80% of surveyed homeless youth use social networking sites weekly and own cell phones, which they use to communicate with employers, friends, and family. Technology use among homeless youth is less about entertainment and more about maintaining important social connections.

Millennials, social media, and education connecting with your students
While companies scramble to grab the attention of young minds through social media, educators are left scratching their heads. We will share what we learned about working with millennial students, the generation gap, and the secret to winning the attention of students on their turf.
Cyber bullying
Social networking sites have become increasingly popular among teenagers since the 2000s. These sites allow teenagers to create profiles, connect with friends, and engage in online social interaction. While some argue that social media simply provides another venue for existing teenage interests like identity exploration and partner selection, others warn that aspects of online communication like persistence and invisible audiences can intensify risks like bullying. Overall, research suggests that social networking does not fundamentally change teenage behavior but may amplify existing social issues in online spaces.

Connect To Survive - The Digital Divide
The document discusses several topics related to connecting and surviving the digital divide:
1. It outlines how Web 2.0 tools like blogs, social networks, and content sharing platforms have created a new knowledge paradigm where value is created through collaboration and connectivity. Those who do not embrace these changes may become isolated.
2. It examines how different generations have varying levels of digital literacy and expectations of how technology should be used. This creates challenges for organizations with multigenerational workforces.
3. It notes that while online consultation can increase participation, barriers like age, income, and skills still contribute to a "digital divide." Not all groups are equally able to engage through digital means alone.
Social media and illiteracy (PPT)
Social media can help overcome illiteracy in several ways:
1. Viewing online articles and videos encourages reading and self-learning new skills.
2. Social media inspires people to write and share their ideas.
3. It provides access to billions of articles and resources on almost any topic to support informal learning.
However, social media alone cannot solve illiteracy - it depends on an individual's mindset and willingness to use these tools to learn.
0800422 (Wr) V1 Digital World Digital Identity Digital Education
The document discusses how technological developments are impacting digital identity and education. It notes that internet usage is rising, especially among youth, and this is changing behaviors. This generational shift has consequences for education, including the need to incorporate media literacy and social software into teaching. While technologies align with how youth learn, education must guide their use to realize benefits and avoid potential downsides like privacy issues. Teachers should leverage opportunities from tools like online video, podcasting, and social networks, but ensure a focus on learning.
Social Media for Schools and Community Engagement
This document discusses using social networking to build engagement between schools and their local communities. It provides lessons learned from running online neighborhood forums for over a decade. Key lessons include focusing on community building rather than technology, promoting civil discussions through real names, and meeting people where they are online through multiple platforms like email, websites, Facebook and Twitter. The document advocates for schools to lead the way in building an engaged local community through social media and provides advice for getting started.
Digital Divide Powerpoint
The document discusses the issue of the digital divide where wealthy people have greater access to technology like the internet and email while many in developing countries do not. It mentions several organizations that are working to address this problem by donating equipment and providing digital education to underprivileged children. The document then outlines a group's plan to raise awareness and funds to donate laptops and technology to a migrant school in Shanghai, China to help close the digital divide.
Effects of social media on youth
Social media is the use of electronic and internet tools to share and discuss information with online communities. Some positive effects of social media include establishing connections with people, sharing ideas and creativity, and accessing information from anywhere in the world. However, social media can also be addictive and negatively impact students' academic performance. It also opens users up to hackers, fraud, and health issues from overuse. Popular social media tools include WhatsApp, Twitter, Google+, and LinkedIn. Users must be aware of threats like social networking worms, phishing, trojans, data leaks, and shortened malicious links on social media. Parents and users should work to prevent these threats through safety precautions like privacy settings and not sharing personal information

Examples from 2012 are provided to illustrate these theories, including statistics on internet usage and social media growth. Possible futures are then presented that could emerge from continued trends related to these theories, such as a future with a single all-powerful computing device and a society divided into two distinct classes.
Impact of social media on teenagers
Social media has become a prominent part of teenagers' lives today. On average, teenagers spend over 2 hours per day on social media. While social media provides benefits like connecting with friends and accessing educational resources, it also poses risks such as cyberbullying, privacy issues, and distraction from schoolwork.

Engaging Digital Natives - Their devices, their world, their content - by Sch...
Owners of Australia's fast growing K-12 online learning environment Schoolbox, James and Sean help independent schools in Australia and New Zealand transform their teaching, learning and online communication.
Today’s youth live in a digital world surrounded by devices, technology, online communities and are socially engaged though the web.
The emergence of these digital natives is forcing traditional teaching methods/technology to move so rapidly, educators can be confused by how best to leverage digital learning to deliver an engaging learning experience through technology.
James and Sean introduce how digital natives learn, how BYOD can work and how to style teaching and use technology in the classroom to fit with the mobile, social and and online world our students live in.
Impact of social networking in modern age
Social networking has impacts on business, education, society, and young people. It provides opportunities for promotion and new customers for businesses but also security and measurement challenges. In education, it enables sharing of information but risks distraction and privacy issues for students. Socially, it facilitates connections while also threatening privacy and weakening real-world relationships. For young people, it supports connectivity while potentially wasting time and risking safety by sharing personal details online.
Social Networking
Social networks provide opportunities for both benefits and risks. The benefits include maintaining social connections, emotional support, meeting new people, job searching, and online education. However, social networks can also enable harassment, over-exposure to inappropriate content, and risky online behavior. Additionally, a lack of nonverbal cues may decrease empathy. While social networks make some issues more visible, the root problems are often long-standing societal issues, not technology itself. Overall social networks reflect both the good and bad aspects of human social interaction.

Social Networking
The document discusses how social networking has changed communication and interaction worldwide. It notes that over 70% of teens and young adults in the US use social media daily. While social media allows people to connect globally, it can also negatively impact productivity, privacy, and face-to-face interaction. The pros are connecting with others and opportunities for businesses, but the cons include cyberbullying, isolation, and decreased grades for students who use social media during studies. Overall, teenagers must learn to balance social media usage.
Social Media in Education
This document discusses the use of social media in education. It notes that while students' personal lives increasingly involve technology, their school experiences often do not reflect this reality. The document then provides statistics on teenagers' and young adults' use of social networking sites and blogging. It establishes that social media can be used as tools for blogging, wikis, and social networking to connect people. However, it also notes issues like privacy and policies that arise. The document concludes by suggesting ways social media can be used to connect professionals and share knowledge to improve lives, and that students should learn for life regardless of available technology.

Social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter have grown rapidly in popularity since the early 2000s. Facebook reported having over 1 billion monthly active users in 2012, making it the largest social media platform. However, extensive use of social media can negatively impact users' communication skills, waste large amounts of time each day, and potentially lead to conflicts from miscommunication. Studies show that heavy social media usage is associated with lower GPAs for students and that much of communication is nonverbal, which is lost online.

Towards Digital Literacy -- Libraries Thriving
Depending on the type of library in which you work, you may assume that someone is "digitally literate." Yet what do we mean by those words and how do we know if the person meets our definition? What can we do in our libraries to increase the information and digital literacy of our users/patrons/members/owners? How does that impact the tools that we acquire and the services that we provide? Who should we be partnering with in these efforts? These and other questions will be address in this session, which will also include time for brainstorming.
Jill Hurst-Wahl is an associate professor of practice in Syracuse University’s School of Information Studies and the director of its library and information science program. She is a member of SLA’s Board of Directors, NYS Regents Advisory Council on Libraries, and the USNY Technology Policy and Practices Council. A former corporate librarian, Jill has always been an advocate for libraries being centers of learning in their communities (no matter what community they serve).

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
