Many Roads Lead to Rome. Mapping Users’ Problem Solving Strategies.
The document discusses analyzing users' problem solving strategies when using visual analytics tools. It describes a study comparing two tools where users solved well and ill-defined problems from real-world data sets. The study found that different information sources were used for ill-defined problems and multiple strategies were possible for both well and ill-defined problems. Analyzing problem solving strategies provided insights on how to improve the tools and shed light on the still poorly understood "exploratory mind."
Data Collection
This document discusses the importance of data collection in the classroom for assessment, accountability, collaboration, problem solving, and providing feedback. It defines what constitutes data and explains that data collection has two components: information gathering and decision making. Several models for data-based decision making are presented for academic and behavioral issues. The document provides tips on how to properly collect objective, measurable baseline data and tips for managing the data collected. It demonstrates how to graph data using different chart types and how to use data to make intervention and instructional decisions.
CSCL17 Discussant: Learning Analytics and Intelligent Support
Bodong Chen from the University of Minnesota discussed a paper session on learning analytics and intelligent support. The session explored definitions of learning and collaboration, data used and how it is analyzed to intelligently support collaboration and learning. Presentations addressed contexts, indicators, data collection and analysis methods to provide support. Criteria for good collaboration and dimensions for CSCL research were also discussed.

Katrina Presentation12 8
Hurricane Katrina made landfall as a Category 5 storm in Florida on August 25, 2005 before making its final landfall as a Category 3 storm in Louisiana on August 29, 2005. It caused catastrophic damage along the Gulf Coast from central Florida to Texas from high winds and flooding. Over 1,800 people lost their lives and property damage was estimated between $80-125 billion, making it the costliest natural disaster in U.S. history. The storm displaced over 750,000 people and devastated cities like New Orleans, where levee failures flooded 80% of the city. The federal, state and local response was criticized for its slow initial response to the massive relief efforts needed. Rebuilding and recovery continues today through

Filippo Lanubile's talk @IASESE 2018
This document summarizes research on the role of emotions in questions asked on Stack Overflow. Through logistic regression of over 87,000 questions, the study found that expressing positive or negative emotions decreases the chance a question will be successfully answered, while factors like reputation, code snippets, and body length impact success. Qualitative analysis revealed misclassifications of sentiment and differences in emotional direction based on reputation. User surveys confirmed quantitative findings but also identified perceptions of rudeness. Guidelines combining evidence and user perspectives were proposed to improve question writing. Ongoing work includes refining sentiment analysis tools and building mentoring plugins to mitigate issues.

Paper id 28201441
The document discusses using support vector machines (SVM) and various lexical, semantic, and syntactic features for question classification. It aims to develop a state-of-the-art machine learning based question classifier. Various features are discussed, including lexical features like n-grams and stemming, syntactic features like question headwords, and semantic features derived from named entity recognition, WordNet senses, and semantic word lists. SVM is used as the classifier to take advantage of its good performance for text classification tasks. The results show that combining these feature types can achieve accurate question classification.
Scaffolding thinking through design
The document discusses how design thinking processes can be used to scaffold student thinking. It describes how an instructional coach worked with an engineering teacher to use the "Thinking Hats" approach to guide students through analyzing designs. The Thinking Hats approach separates feedback into categories represented by different colored hats to focus students' thinking. Students said this approach helped them look at both strengths and weaknesses of designs to improve them. The document also discusses how reverse engineering can be used across subjects to analyze components and effectiveness of "designs" like texts or processes.
Using a data visualization tool to drive data curiosity
The document discusses using Tableau, a data visualization tool, to analyze and tell stories with data from LifeKIDS, an organization with 24 physical locations across 7 states. It provides examples of attendance data visualizations in Tableau that are easier to understand and spark more curiosity than the same data in Excel. The document also discusses visualizing survey results in Tableau to make the data more accessible and help identify areas of focus.

This document provides an agenda for a writing workshop peer review session. It includes instructions for participants to bring two copies of their draft essay for review. It outlines the parts of the essay that should be marked and provides a worksheet for reviewers to follow to give feedback on things like organization, thesis, examples, and formatting. Reviewers are instructed to read essays aloud and give feedback focused on revision, not just editing. The goal is to help writers improve their essays.
Enhancing the Practice Standards with Technology
This document provides an overview of tech tools that can be used to enhance the Standards for Mathematical Practice. It discusses how tools like Kahoot, LiveBinder and illustrative mathematics websites can help students develop skills like making sense of problems, constructing arguments, modeling with math, and using tools strategically. While technology is not emphasized in math standards, tools are recommended as a way to connect, collaborate, communicate and create for deeper learning. Examples of apps are provided for each practice, and it is noted that the tools alone do not guarantee proficiency - the tasks and how students think must support the practices. Reflections emphasize having students explain concepts and learning how to learn over just explanations.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
