The Design of Monitoring and Data Infrastructures – Applying a forward-think...Matthias Schroeder
Climate Change is an extraordinary challenge for the
development of our socioeconomic environment. The compilation
of comprehensive knowledge about our physical environment is a
key importance for implementing of mitigation strategies. Long-
term terrestrial observatories are supporting the systematic
monitoring of environmental parameters. They are responsible
for data collection, data analysis and subsequently for decision
support. Not only the complex structure and the large volume of
data streams but also the necessary integration of existing
monitoring infrastructures for such observatories imply special
technological challenges for today’s scientific data and
information management. Recent developments of Information
and Communication Technology provide important conceptual
and technological input for the proper design and
implementation of underlying monitoring and data
infrastructures. To avoid constantly recurring system
developments for such infrastructures, a general and integrated
approach for a reference architecture concept is needed.
Often a neglected resource, quant and qual data and its combined power if harnessed correctly can be used to drive user experience. @dh_analytics discusses the role that data, more so insight, plays in daily UX processes making them more efficient and effective not just for the digital team but for the organisation.
Do you want to get your SharePoint project right the first time? It has been our experience that there is no way for a project to succeed if the stakeholders and solution designers are not in alignment, no matter how good the solution. If your technical team and business stakeholders are not on the same page then the project will fail. The problem is that getting the business stakeholders to tell you their vision and understand what success looks like to them is very difficult.
Over the past decade of delivering successful SharePoint projects, we have discovered methods that work very well at eliciting the stakeholders' desires and then ensuring that we have clarified our own understanding with them. These methods involve the use of visual and tactile tools that open the lines of communication and rapidly expose misunderstandings.
We will demonstrate tools such as mind mapping, card sorting, gamestorming, tree-testing and other methods, and we will have you participate in exercises that will give you the confidence to apply these tools in your own practice. Many of these methods are very easy to learn and apply, and this tutorial will give you the confidence to do so.
The application of these visual tools has directly influenced the success of the many projects we've worked on over the years. We won't be giving you theory, but rather stories and examples from our real-life experience. We hope you'll join us for a practical, useful, fun and enlightening experience.

Supported by a national group of partner organizations, the Assessment for Learning Project is a multi-year grant program and field-building initiative inviting educators to fundamentally rethink the roles that assessment should play to advance student learning and to improve our K-12 education system.
Grant recipients receive awards ranging from $50,000 to $225,000, along with personalized technical assistance, high-quality learning experiences and access to a national community of practice, all aimed at catalyzing new and improving on promising efforts in assessment design.
Over the next two years, we’ll be gathering and synthesizing insights from our grantees and other innovative educators. And those insights will lead to new questions and deeper explorations of these issues. In other words, our learning agenda is intended to catalyze an ongoing conversation on how we can #rethinkassessment.
This is our first ALP Milestone Report.

New Teacher Excellence: The Impact of State Policy on Induction Program Implementation -- While scholars have argued and research demonstrates that intensive induction support can increase teacher effectiveness, satisfaction and retention, there is little consensus around which specific policy levers have an influence on quality mentoring and induction programs and even less research to explain the growth and development of induction programs that have little or no state policy support.
This paper explores the intersection between state induction policy and local induction program implementation and examines the question: How does state policy impact the development and quality of local induction programs?

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
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.
