This document summarizes an agile project management course and workshop. It introduces agile concepts like Scrum and its roles, events, and artifacts. It also discusses how agile principles can be applied to rapid prototyping projects through techniques like colocated teams, frequent demos, fixed schedules, and continuous backlog evaluation. The workshop consists of an introduction to agile, a group exercise to discuss implementing agile in projects, and teams presenting their solutions.
This is a small presentation about Agile software development. I'm talking about Agile Manifesto and Values of Agile Manifesto that you can find here: https://agilemanifesto.org/

The product owner and the scrum team. Can one person do this at scale?Derek Huether
Presented at IIBA Baltimore on March 11, 2014. The last 10 years of Agile have focused on the team. The next 10 years of Agile will focus on the enterprise. That said, should the Product Owner continue to be a single person or does it need to evolve as well? Let's cover the basics and then see how LeadingAgile has been successful at leveraging the Product Owner role at scale.

Agile is software development technique in which the software is developed in a way that quality of software is good and the time required to development is less and the development takes place by parts, i.e. The software delivered to the user or customer by parts in a short period of time. The agile methodology introduced simple, easy to follow ideas that revolutionized how teams approach software delivery.
Mary Henson (CEO of the DSDM consortium) introduced Dr. Islam Choudhury (Ass. Professor Kingston University) who then explained the ‘DSDM’ project framework.
DSDM has a venerable pedigree, pre-dating the Agile Manifesto by many years. Recently it has been recognised as a useful project and framework, and Islam explained how it can provide a project layer around team level methods such as Scrum.
it was used as a basis for a panel discussion on one of our Polar Talks recently.
abstract:
It's been 15 years since the Agile Manifesto was signed and several methodologies were raised ever since. There is almost no developer nowdays that haven't adopted at least one of the Agile principles and uses them in everyday work or even private life. Some has even done improvised versions which work according their needs.
The question that's been around these past years is if the Agile is old enough to become past and what's the next big thing, is it a time to call it Post-Agile period and what that means. What has or needs to change in order to abandon the old and become the Post Agile follower.
Lots of teams already claim themselves as Post-Agile pioneers and some new ideas of methodologies have been introduced. I'll try to bring an overview of some of them and bring you some thoughts that might help answering the above questions.

Processes across industry sectors often face problems due to non-conforming parts, which eventually lead to process failure, productivity, and even rework. Even when organizations have the best of frameworks or quality controls at place, problems still persist. So, it is highly imperative to ensure problems do not reoccur and get to the root cause of the same. This is where Root Cause Analysis (RCA) comes into the picture that uses a collection of problem solving methods to get to the actual root cause of the problem.

I was invited by my friend, Ian Bacungan, to speak at PUP Open University's "Entrepreneurship and Digital Marketing" seminar last month. More than 300 students attended the event and I thought I was so privileged to speak in front of the future entrepreneurs of our country.
I talked about "Your Personal Brand in the Digital Age". It was a two part presentation, which I began in talking about establishing a personal brand premise then segued to transcending personal brand to social media and other digital media. I would like to give my full credit to my friend, JR Hernandez, for giving me the material about brand premise, which I adapted to suit "personal branding".

Since the publication of the Agile Manifesto in 2001, Agile has grown to be the standard practice for the software development industry and teams around the globe. Seeing the success of this approach, other areas of the business are looking to adopt it; but…how do you “run agile” in non-software development teams? How do you apply the Agile principles and tools to an Operations, Sales or an HR team? And more importantly, how does your business achieve Business Agility as a whole?

Full-day pre-conference workshop given at the IA Summit 2007. This is the slide deck we ended up with after the workshop. This version contains participants' comments, discussions, work products, etc. The "Before" version has blank slides that anticipate workshop products.
A short talk that explains a little of what Agile is; where it originated and how it works. This talk is applicable whatever method you use - scrum, XP, DSDM etc. Concludes by introducing ICAgile (the International Consortium of Agile).
Nowadays, all organization works on the principle of Agile methodology, there might be many people like me who don't even know the meaning of Agile and Scrum Master.
I have made the docs from the source available on the internet with all due respect have copied the URL LINK.
The motive behind posting this is you can get an Agile understanding in one document.

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.

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

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

How many have heard of Scrum?How many have used?
There’s no better day to hold a agile development course than today. The manifesto meeting was held exactly 9 years ago, on Feb 11-13 2001Working software is the primary measure of progress. Building the project on trust, instead of contracts, is more efficient and builds a better relationship between the vendor and the customer.The 12 agile principles describe in more detail what agile is all about.
Ok, so now we know the basics. Agile is the general term for many things that lay underneath it. (Käy läpi nämä sisällöt.) What belongs to agile? If something corresponds to agile values, then it is agile. - Lean for example is a set of principles and ways of organizing a project, that is interrelated to agile. - Scrum is a specific technique for organizing a project, and we will learn a bit more about it today. Scrum is one of the agile practices and has been derived from lean principles.Next, let’s take a few examples on agile companies.

Build the Tallest Freestanding Structure: The winning team is the one that has the tallest structure measured from the table top surface to the top of the marshmallow. That means the structure cannot be suspended from a higher structure, like a chair, ceiling or chandelier.The Entire Marshmallow Must be on Top: The entire marshmallow needs to be on the top of the structure. Cutting or eating part of the marshmallow disqualifies the team. Use as Much or as Little of the Kit: The team can use as many or as few of the 20 spaghetti sticks, as much or as little of the string or tape. The team cannot use the paper bag as part of their structure.Break up the Spaghetti, String or Tape: Teams are free to break the spaghetti, cut up the tape and string to create new structures.The Challenge Lasts 18 minutes: Teams cannot hold on to the structure when the time runs out. Those touching or supporting the structure at the end of the exercise will be disqualified.
