The document summarizes a study that used a game called HuskyHunt to teach university students about information security through social media. The game aimed to increase engagement by using gaming mechanics, social media sharing, and digital badges. Key findings were that students with digital badges had higher rates of engagement, such as completing modules, sharing on social media, and creating aliases. Areas for improvement included making the game more challenging and authentic.

In this talk we will introduce serious games as games which purpose is not only amusement and can be effectively used for educational or training purposes. This kind of games are also frequently named as educational games or even as game-like simulations. We will describe the general characteristics of serious games and how they are used in several domains (e.g. military, medicine), describing their main advantages (e.g. engagement, student motivation) and some of the shortcomings that prevent a wider generalization in educational settings (e.g. cost, deployment). We will also describe new emerging trends in the field of serious games such as gaming for solving scientific problems or how the application of learning analytics techniques can improve and simplify serious games application in different domains.

Games in the classroom help students. This session will talk about how Microsoft’s Skype in the Classroom program uses games to connect classrooms, build bridges between students and the outside world, attend virtual field trips, and motivate teachers through learning exercises. In addition, the speaker will talk about how Microsoft’s community forum makes heavy use of game mechanics to drive engagement, recruit ambassadors, and motivate people to help each other with problems. He’ll reveal some very interesting data behind a large scale community effort.
Health care providers that want to offer games to their customers must do so without violating federal patient privacy regulations -- a requirement that can make it difficult to target games to the patients who will benefit most from them. Even companies that are not subject to those regulations are finding themselves under pressure to protect players' most personal data

Global Survey Across 32 Countries Shows Worker Appetite for Social Tools is I...Microsoft
Global survey across 32 countries shows worker appetite for social tools is increasing, even if it means spending their own money and defying organizational policy to use the technology.
Nearly half of employees report that social tools at work help increase their productivity, but more than 30 percent of companies underestimate the value of these tools and often restrict their use, according to new Microsoft research released today.
The survey, conducted for Microsoft Corp. by research firm Ipsos among 9,908 information workers in 32 countries, also found that 39 percent of employees feel there isn’t enough collaboration in their workplaces, and 40 percent believe social tools help foster better teamwork. More surprisingly, 31 percent said they are willing to spend their own money to buy social tools.
“Employees are already bringing their own devices into their workplaces, but now they are increasingly bringing their own services as well,” said Charlene Li, founder and analyst at Altimeter Group, a firm that studies social media and other technology trends. “Employees expect to work differently, with tools that feel more modern and connected, but are also reflective of how they interact in their personal lives. Enterprise social represents a new way to work, and organizations embracing these tools are improving collaboration, speeding customer responses and creating competitive advantages.”
The research also found distinct differences between countries, sectors and genders as they relate to the levels of productivity, collaboration and communication tools used in today’s workplace.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

1. Husky Hunt: Social Media Driven Gaming to Engage
Students in Information Security Awareness
The technology integration project was
designed to use the HuskyHunt framework to
measure the impact that digital badges have
on player engagement, learning transfer and
players attitudes regarding technology and
security.
2. HuskyHunt: Security Awareness
Training for Students
• Teach students practical lessons about Internet and information
security awareness topics that they can relate to personally
• Utilize gaming mechanics to increase engagement and
participation
• Leverage Social media, specifically Facebook and Twitter to
reinforce learning that occurred in the game modules.
• Leverage social media to increase the likelihood that UConn
students not participating in HuskyHunt are exposed to the
security training.
