Presented at ConfabEdu in Atlanta, Georgia, November 11, 2013, Derek Featherstone shows us several lessons about making our content more accessible to people with visual, cognitive, hearing, and mobility/dexterity related disabilities.
Content strategists are in a unique position to effectively champion accessibility within their teams and organizations. You are trusted advisors and connect with all the right stakeholders for a project, including the people that will use the product you're building. You are often the person that connects the big picture with in the trenches hands-on work.

You'll learn:
* How people with disabilities use the web and how that influences your content and its consumption
* How you can use accessibility as a tool to simply create content that is better for everyone
* Four cornerstone principles of accessibility that should guide all your content creation

In this talk I look at a few ways in which JavaScript actually helps make web sites more accessible despite the bad name it might have in some accessibility circles.
My closing Keynote from Edge of the Web 2011 in which I talked about patterns in our behaviour as web professionals, about pushing ourselves all the time with very little recovery and some business lessons that we can learn from athletic endeavours.

How to Raise Your Profile as a Developer (And Why You Should Bother!)Lauren Hayward Schaefer
We like to think the tech industry is a meritocracy: if you put your head down and do your work well, you will be recognized. Unfortunately, this is not typically the case. In order to advance your career, you will likely need to raise your profile internally at your company and/or externally in the broader developer community. During this session, Lauren Schaefer will share personal stories of how she has worked to overcome the discomfort of raising her profile. You'll leave this session with practical steps you can take in the coming weeks and months to raise your profile.

What I learned about SEO (while building a WordPress Theme)David Zimmerman
A few years ago I created my own WordPress theme. It's not that I'm a web designer (or a developer, for that matter). I just wanted to understand the platform better. While working on this project, I learned several things about doing SEO on a WordPress website. I've compiled these lessons into this presentation.
2016 is going to be the year of Virtual DOM. React.js one of the most popular implementation of Virtual DOM. But this time we won't focus on React.js. We will be focusing on what is the concept of Virtual DOM, what's the benefits, and how to use it without React.js. All of those concepts will help you understand this newest DOM manipulation technique and better work with any Virtual DOM implementations such React.js.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.
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.

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.

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.
