Data Wranglers DC December meetup: http://www.meetup.com/Data-Wranglers-DC/events/151563622/
There's a lot of data sitting on websites just waiting to be combined with data you have sitting on your servers. During this talk, Robert Dempsey will show you how to create a dataset using Python by scraping websites for the data you want.
If utilized properly, online platforms can be informative and entertaining, provide feedback from peers, let us connect with others and network with them, and be used for so much more. BUT, Think before entering any content through any platform that may prove to be embarrassing, inappropriate, etc.
Remember, information, photos, opinions, etc. placed online: are often seen by unintended viewers (“frenemies,” potential employers, etc.), have a very long shelf life (even after items are taken down) – posters and bloggers can be relentless, may be placed online without your knowledge or permission, may pop up in a Google search if anyone wants to learn more about you.
Get your website working - for you! Find out how your website can become a powerful tool to market your foundation. Learn about best practices and common mistakes in this practical look at what makes, and breaks, good web communication.

Introduction to AI for Nonprofits with Tapp NetworkTechSoup
Dive into the world of AI! Experts Jon Hill and Tareq Monaur will guide you through AI's role in enhancing nonprofit websites and basic marketing strategies, making it easy to understand and apply.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Editor's Notes
Suggestion to use a different definition for this slide: “A large computer network linking smaller computer networks worldwide” from Random House Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary .Old Definition: a network of computer networks that spans the globe.
This isn’t that important, but to have the slide more “visually” appealing, I suggest finding a different image for the person working at the computer. Actually the image is okay, but I think the person should be facing the other way (toward the center of the page), so the viewer’s eye isn’t taken off the page, but focused more on the rest of the information in the center. Does that make sense? I just remember from working on my high school yearbook and learning about the layouts for pages—you want your eye to be drawn toward the middle of the page rather than off the edge of the page.
This slide (#11) should swap places with slide #10 so that it comes before the first practice session. (AS, 6/28/06)
