REST: The Most Misunderstood Software Architecture EverMartín Soto
The REST architectural style must be the most misunderstood one ever: Many systems on the Internet proudly call themselves REST, but very few of them really are, at least if we accept what REST's creator Roy Fielding has to tell us. In reality, REST is an abstraction of the World Wide Web's architecture, and systems built according to REST are bound to share many of the Web's advantages, and some of its disadvantages.
In this presentation, I'll share with you my understanding of REST, based on my experience building a large REST-style system over the last few years. We'll go through the set of characteristics that make a system RESTful, look at a few examples of partial and full REST systems, and consider the advantages and disadvantages of building systems according to REST.
Progetto EPI.CA. Report riassuntivo semplificatoMariano Marino
I dati presentati mostrano un aumento delle malattie neoplastiche nella nostra città nel corso degli anni
L'aumento è più evidente in alcune zone come il Centro (+14%) e Arpino/ Cittadella (+11/15%) e per motivi non legati all'invecchiamento della popolazione
I motivi di tale maggiore incidenza possono essere verosimilmente legati all'inquinamento industriale e criminale subito dalle zone in questione
Una corretta analisi di epidemiologia ambientale sulla incidenza dei tumori può pervenire ad una conclusione circa l’eventuale rapporto di causa tra rischi ambientali e patologie tumorali.
La collaborazione dei Medici del territorio con gli epidemiologi della Regione sarà, pertanto, fondamentale.
I tassi d’incidenza rilevati risultano inferiori a quelli nazionali ma la tendenza all'aumento riscontrata indica il raggiungimento dei tassi nazionali entro i prossimi 5 anni
La forte presenza di fattori di rischio non correggibili da parte del singolo cittadino non deve però esimerci dall'osservanza delle norme personali di corretto comportamento di prevenzione personale
Il progetto EPI.CA è attivo quotidianamente negli ambulatori dei MMG E PLS.
La raccolta di dati è continua e nei prossimi mesi informeremo con dati sempre più accurati e precisi la cittadinanza assicurando un controllo continuo e capillare della salute
EPI.CA epidemiologia del cancro nella città di Casoria (NA)Mariano Marino
cidenza del cancro è in forte aumento in tutti i paesi del mondo.
L’osservazione costante del fenomeno impone l’impiego di risorse, spesso
dispendiose ed insostenibili.
L’Idea nasce a Gennaio 2013 tra Medici di Medicina Generale e Pediatri
di libera scelta e Distretto Sanitario 43 di Casoria ed è quella di
coinvolgere l’unica vera antenna epidemiologica territoriale, i
professionisti delle cure primarie, nel Progetto di allestire un
osservatorio epidemiologico permanente in grado di sorvegliare
l’andamento del fenomeno cancro sul Territorio del Distretto 43,
monitorare la prevalenza, incidenza e mortalità locali così da paragonare i
parametri con quelli nazionali, identificare eventuali anomalie, evidenziare
clusters che consentano di correlare l’andamento delle malattie tumorale
a fattori oncogenetici locali.
La sfida consiste nel fotografare, con la risorsa fondamentale del senso di
responsabilità degli operatori stessi ed un illuminato accorgimento
tecnologico di reportistica applicato al software di gestione degli studi
medici in uso sul territorio, Kappamed, grazie alla intuizione dell’Ing.
Mario Palermo,l’andamento del fenomeno cancro nel nostro territorio,
attraverso una metodologia di raccolta dati unica ed originale.
L’analisi dei dati apre scenari futuri di grande interesse per poter
sviluppare progetti di studio ed analisi di notevole carattere scientifico e
di grande interesse per la popolazione.
L’osservazione costante delle malattie oncologiche è essenziale nella
programmazione di qualsiasi progetto di prevenzione. Il lavoro
responsabile e meticoloso svolto da tutti i Medici di Medicina Generale e
Pediatri di libera scelta del Distretto ha consentito la raccolta di notevole
quantità di dati che, opportunamente elaborati da un Comitato Tecnico
Scientifico, sono stati presentati in due convegni.

There is an urgent need to invest in teacher education programmes in the Arab world. Outdated curricula and methodologies, reliance on rote learning and not enough qualified teachers present a threat to the quality of education in the region. This presentation outlines a qualitative case study that explores the perceived and observed impact of shaping and contextualizing teacher education reading pedagogy upon an evolving system of knowledge, beliefs and reading teaching styles in a UAE context. The findings suggest that by attending to a Vygotskian constructivist-based contextualized EFL model of second language teacher education pedagogy, the potential to enhance the capacity of Emirati female student teachers to teach reading successfully and enact pedagogic change in government schools is increased. While investigating the unique features of the case itself, these findings may have resonance for teacher education programmes in other Middle Eastern contexts.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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

students to locate, comprehend, evaluate, and
apply knowledge by reading the materials
created by real life.
“Understanding how students learn ,and particularly how they
learn to read and write, influences instructional approaches that
the teacher uses”( Tompkins, 2010, p .5)
6.
Selecting Text
What Literacy teachers should do..
Make sure text is aligned with state mandated
standards
Allow time for one to have read over the text for
grade appropriateness
Make sure text matches student literacy background
Know how text is organized and structured
Use the data collected from the non-cognitive
assessment to introduce texts that interest the
students
Use the Literacy Matric to determine the readability
of the text
Ask:
What do I want my students to learn
How will the text be used
Benefits for the students
Students will want to read for pleasure
The students will be able to comprehend the
text
Learn new vocabulary
Students will be motivated and engaged
Learn how to interpret text organization
Have a personal connection that allows them to
respond to the text in a written format
Learn how to select text for independent reading
Determine the purpose for reading
A goal for teachers is for students to notice the text structure ,become
engaged when reading and writing (Laureate Education, n.d.).
