Updated version 6-18
The Maker Movement is taking the education world by storm and many teachers and librarians have been excited to create makerspaces in their schools. But once you’ve got the supplies and the space, it can be difficult to figure out how to keep the momentum going. In this session, you will learn about how the makerspace program at one middle school started with just three bins of K’nex and a vision. After three years, the makerspace transformed the library into the STEAM hub of the school. I’ll share my experiences from what I’ve learned in my own makerspaces and from visiting makerspaces across the country. You’ll learn strategies for setting up your MakerSpace, building a Maker culture in your school, involving your community, connecting with other schools, optimizing storage space for supplies and projects, and other useful tips and tricks to take your makerspace to the next level.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder
Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

3. REBECCA RESCATE
moved into a tiny apartment and
had to squeeze everything into that
place, when she realized that she
had no place for her cat’s litter box.
She decided to toilet train her cat,
but could not find an easy and cost-
effective toilet training kit. In order
to simplify the process, CitiKitty
Inc. was formed and is now
available in more than 1,000 stores
and the business has peaked to
about $1 million in annual sales.
5. Lee Zalben came up with the idea for his business in
college…but not sitting in any classroom.
As Lee and his friends studied for finals, they developed a fun
competition to hold during those much-needed study breaks:
who could create the “craziest but best-tasting peanut butter
sandwich.”
Fast-forward to post-graduation when Lee saw an empty
storefront in the Greenwich Village area of New York City and
thought it would be an ideal locale for a peanut butter sandwich
shop. In 1998, The Peanut Butter & Co. Sandwich shop opened.
Offering gourmet peanut butter sandwiches as well as desserts,
milkshakes, and smoothies, the company has grown quickly,
selling its varieties of all-natural peanut butter in more than
15,000 supermarkets and specialty food stores.
7. A nurse for 35 years, Barb Przybylowicz,
saw first-hand how some patients,
especially those she worked with in
independent and assisted-living homes,
often need a more secure way of sitting
in chairs.
"The day came when a resident kept
'slip-sliding' from her chair," says
Przybylowicz.
That is when she came up with her idea:
pants designed with a non-slip area on
the buttocks to keep people safe from
slipping or sliding regardless of where
they sit. No longer in the nursing field,
Przybylowicz continues to help others
with her invention.
8. “My kids are slobs and when they come home, they throw
their backpacks against the foyer wall, kick off their
shoes into my white moldings, and generally destroy the
place,” says Debbie Wiener of Slobproof!
“My oldest son Sam came home from college for
Thanksgiving and saw me on my hands and knees,
filling in the dings and dents on my baseboard molding
with crusty cans of white paint. Without moving an
inch from the TV, he asked, ‘Hey Mom, isn't there a
better way for you to do that?’”
From that one statement, Wiener developed the
Slobproof! PaintPen, a vacuum-sealed paint pen that
can be filled with any color paint for touch-ups.
Slobproof!
11. “One day I was eating a corner brownie, and
realized that I loved the corner the best...but never
really talked about it. Then I realized that was
probably true for lots of people,” says Matthew
Griffin, President and CEO of Baker's Edge.
Griffin decided to invent a pan that only made edge
pieces, resulting in the Edge Brownie Pan, which won
the Grand Champion prize for the Visa/MSN “Ideas
Happen” contest. Along with their other products, the
Edge Brownie Pan is sold online at their web site and
Amazon.com, as well as retailers like Sur La Table and
Solutions.
13. T I N A N E L S O N
“When my children were two, four
and five years old, I thought [a great
Father’s Day gift] would be a game
to teach them what Dad did after he
left for work each day. He's a lawyer,
and I found no game fitting that
description.”
"On Father's Day, I always give my
husband homemade gifts: the kids'
feet imprinted on a t-shirt, a
matching game using their photos,
ceramic pieces with my kids'
artwork, a laminated keepsake box
with their photos on it,"
So, she created her own game
—Lawsuit! which has won “Game of
the Year” by Creative Child magazine
five years in a row.

15. “A few years ago, I was out to dinner with a friend, and I had
excused myself from the table. When I returned, my
handsome dinner date had scribbled on the back of his
business card, ‘Want to have dinner?’ As we were leaving the
restaurant, he slid that card to an attractive woman at a
nearby table,” says Lori Cheek.
This gesture made her realize how many folks want to connect
with someone they see in real life, but don’t necessarily want
to hand over a business card—with so much personal
information—to a stranger.
In May 2010, she launched Cheekd.com, combining the use of
real cards and the technology to safely connect with each
other online.
