Caleb Cooper discusses how he used Puppet to automate management of the IT infrastructure at Garden Montessori School where he worked. He started small by using Puppet to install programs and services, but then got more ambitious by using it to configure Chrome bookmarks and build golden images. Over time, he expanded its use to manage user accounts, sync files across devices, and install unpackaged apps. However, running Puppet for everything became too slow. The document provides examples of how Puppet was used and some of the challenges encountered along with quotes from Maria Montessori about child development and education.

The document discusses several questions and issues related to educating at-risk and disadvantaged students, including how to prepare students for future jobs and technologies, whether to teach curriculum sequentially, the importance of viewing the classroom through a student's eyes and experience, using technology to simulate real-world learning, and focusing on student strengths rather than limitations. It also references experiments providing computers and internet access to students in poverty to help close the digital divide.
50 educational quotes
The document contains over 50 quotes about education from various notable figures such as Maria Montessori, Jean Piaget, Confucius, and Albert Einstein. The quotes cover a wide range of topics including the importance of inspiring children's natural curiosity, allowing children to learn through their own experiences, adapting teaching methods to individual students' needs, and the role of teachers in developing students' character and ability to think critically.
Child Development
The document provides an overview of Maria Montessori's philosophy of education. It discusses how Montessori believed education should focus on releasing a child's potentialities rather than only imparting knowledge. Montessori saw children as developing physically and psychically according to an innate pattern from birth. She emphasized the importance of providing children freedom within a prepared environment to allow their innate abilities and personality to unfold naturally.
Involving parents in the process of learning #ties13
This document discusses involving parents in the learning process. It emphasizes that communication and relationships are key, and that true change requires collaboration from all stakeholders, including parents. The author advocates starting with a clear vision, having an open mind, finding ways for parents to provide leadership, and creating learning opportunities for both students and parents. The goal is to inspire meaningful change by connecting with people at a personal level before trying to change their minds.
Change has changed! Part 2
We are in a critical time of history. What worked yesterday does not necessarily work today. It’s been proven that
organizations fail when they over-invest in “what is” instead of “what could be.” But why? Truth is, every organization is
successful until it’s not – and there’s only one sure-fire way to protect yourself from it happening to you, re-inventing yourself
destructing. The time of just showing up and doing your job is over. As Gary Hamel states, “Average is officially over because
every employer today has the means much more quickly, cheaply, and easily available to take you out.” That said, a new
breed of worker and leader is now required in the world today. People who are creative, able to communicate and can adapt
on the fly are indispensable. Our ancestors proved that you can shift from one system (agricultural) to another (industrial) as
long as you’re willing to change. So ask yourself, can you adapt?
Successful Montessorians
Montessori schools have produced some of the most successful people in history. Here are some of the best and brightest Montessori School alumni.
No Assembly Required
The document discusses principles to guide education companies and teachers in embracing online content, technology, and student-centered learning. It notes that life has become an open-book test and schools risk irrelevance if they don't change. Teachers should develop networks to collaborate and learn from others, and encourage students to take ownership of their learning by letting them fix their own mistakes. Resources alone are not enough - teachers need time, support and training to effectively integrate new approaches.
Connectededc catc
This document discusses trends in education and learning in the digital age. It addresses how contemporary technologies and digital resources can best meet the needs of learning communities and personal learning. Key points discussed include the need to shift from isolated to connected learning, from consuming to creating, and from learning as individuals to learning in networked communities. Connected learning communities that leverage collective intelligence through participation, collaboration, and social action are emphasized. Professional development is reframed as occurring through communities and networks rather than traditional workshops. The document advocates becoming connected, DIY learners who are change agents through communities of practice.
Collaborate. Create. Learn.
This document discusses reimagining schools to better meet the needs of students. It advocates for giving students more autonomy, opportunities for mastery, and a sense of purpose. Schools should focus on engaged learning rather than rewards, draw on parental expertise, and make better use of learning spaces. Teachers and leaders must continuously learn and model learning for students. The most important skill is teaching students how to learn. The overall message is that schools must evolve and adapt to prepare students for the future.
Useful jobs for small hands
This document discusses useful jobs for children with small hands to help them become self-sufficient and responsible citizens. It recommends assigning simple household tasks that children can learn to do properly with guidance. While children will be slower and less perfect than adults, setting standards too high or too low can discourage them. Early child training through age-appropriate household responsibilities is important for their development.
Education Summit "Digital Exposure"
The document discusses how learning is changing from isolated and generic learning to connected, personalized, and lifelong learning. It notes that knowledge is moving from individuals to networks of individuals. It argues that schools need to change from their traditional models to adapt to this new landscape where learning is mobile, networked, global, and collaborative. It provides eight shifts that schools and learners need to make, such as learning to interact with strangers, developing an online presence or "G-portfolio", becoming skilled with digital tools, learning to manage and synthesize information, developing skills to evaluate sources of information, following personal passions, and learning how to be lifelong learners.
Teaching Strategies - The Secrets
The document discusses various strategies and perspectives on teaching and learning. It provides over 20 quotes from experts on topics like the traits of great teachers, how schools suppress creativity, different learning styles, and moving beyond rote memorization to teaching students how to think. The overall message is that education needs to shift its focus from standardized testing to cultivating lifelong learning and problem-solving skills.
Your Dreams Start Here
This document contains several short stories and reflections about dreams. It begins with a student named Ruben Ferrero discussing his dreams of becoming a teacher and triathlete. Another story is about a boy who dreams of becoming a PE teacher and moves to the UK to learn English to achieve this goal. A third story is about a poor girl named Marta who dreams of becoming a teacher and finds inspiration from a message in a bottle.

The document discusses Maria Montessori and her revolutionary educational philosophy and method. Some key points include:
- Montessori believed education is a natural process carried out by the child through experiences with their environment, not from direct instruction. The teacher's role is to prepare an enriching environment.
- She observed children in Rome who flourished in a specially prepared environment without direct teaching, showing their potential when free to learn naturally.
- Her method spread worldwide and transformed early childhood education, emphasizing mixed-age classrooms, hands-on learning, and child-led development.
Philosophy of Leadership - George Taylor
A gardener cultivates their environment by carefully preparing soil, planting seeds, and patiently waiting for growth, while shaping their surroundings by allowing freedom. In contrast, a mechanic fixes problems alone without being able to share or give their work to others. The document advocates adopting a gardening approach to cultivating learning and growth through freedom, stimulation, and sharing knowledge rather than a mechanical approach of dictating what is learned.
ISTE 2015: The Aftermath
This document summarizes perspectives from educators on how to improve math education, personalized learning, and the future of learning through technology. Gay recommends helping students explain their math work in different ways rather than just finding the right answer. Meghan dreams of a classroom where students can collaborate, work in small groups, and receive individual attention. Kim is excited by what students can accomplish when given timely data and tools to use that data. Anne believes technology allows for individualized instruction that is engaging and part of students' world.
Maker Workshop Part 2: Improvement and Ready Set Design
This document discusses rethinking education and learning. It advocates moving beyond simply improving schools to making fundamental changes. Creative confidence is described as generating new solutions, and individuals are encouraged to create the status quo rather than just catch up to it. People are advised to imagine a world without limits and go do what they want in that world. Makerspaces are highlighted as places for more than just STEM, and everyone is urged to find and pursue their passions. The focus is on taking risks, starting projects now, and making a difference through innovation and creativity.

Puppet camp2021 testing modules and controlrepo
This document discusses testing Puppet code when using modules versus a control repository. It recommends starting with simple syntax and unit tests using PDK or rspec-puppet for modules, and using OnceOver for testing control repositories, as it is specially designed for this purpose. OnceOver allows defining classes, nodes, and a test matrix to run syntax, unit, and acceptance tests across different configurations. Moving from simple to more complex testing approaches like acceptance tests is suggested. PDK and OnceOver both have limitations for testing across operating systems that may require customizing spec tests. Infrastructure for running acceptance tests in VMs or containers is also discussed.

Modules of the twenties
- The document discusses various patterns and techniques the author has found useful when working with Puppet modules over 10+ years, including some that may be considered unorthodox or anti-patterns by some.
- Key topics covered include optimization of reusable modules, custom data types, Bolt tasks and plans, external facts, Hiera classification, ensuring resources for presence/absence, application abstraction with Tiny Puppet, and class-based noop management.
- The author argues that some established patterns like roles and profiles can evolve to be more flexible, and that running production nodes in noop mode with controls may be preferable to fully enforcing on all nodes.
Applying Roles and Profiles method to compliance code
This document discusses adapting the roles and profiles design pattern to writing compliance code in Puppet modules. It begins by noting the challenges of writing compliance code, such as it touching many parts of nodes and leading to sprawling code. It then provides an overview of the roles and profiles pattern, which uses simple "front-end" roles/interfaces and more complex "back-end" profiles/implementations. The rest of the document discusses how to apply this pattern when authoring Puppet modules for compliance - including creating interface and implementation classes, using Hiera for configuration, and tools for reducing boilerplate code. It aims to provide a maintainable structure and simplify adapting to new compliance frameworks or requirements.
KGI compliance as-code approach
This document discusses Kinney Group's Puppet compliance framework for automating STIG compliance and reporting. It notes that customers often implement compliance Puppet code poorly or lack appropriate Puppet knowledge. The framework aims to standardize compliance modules that are data-driven and customizable. It addresses challenges like conflicting modules and keeping compliance current after implementation. The framework generates automated STIG checklists and plans future integration with Puppet Enterprise and Splunk for continued compliance reporting. Kinney Group cites practical experience implementing the framework for various military and government customers.
Enforce compliance policy with model-driven automation
This document discusses model-driven automation for enforcing compliance. It begins with an overview of compliance benchmarks and the CIS benchmarks. It then discusses implementing benchmarks, common challenges around configuration drift and lack of visibility, and how to define compliance policy as code. The key points are that automation is essential for compliance at scale; a model-driven approach defines how a system should be configured and uses desired-state enforcement to keep systems compliant; and defining compliance policy as code, managing it with source control, and automating it with CI/CD helps achieve continuous compliance.
Keynote: Puppet camp compliance
This document discusses how organizations can move from a reactive approach to compliance to a proactive approach using automation. It notes that over 50% of CIOs cite security and compliance as a barrier to IT modernization. Puppet offers an end-to-end compliance solution that allows organizations to automatically eliminate configuration drift, enforce compliance at scale across operating systems and environments, and define policy as code. The solution helps organizations improve compliance from 50% to over 90% compliant. The document argues that taking a proactive automation approach to compliance can turn it into a competitive advantage by improving speed and innovation.
Automating it management with Puppet + ServiceNow
As the leading IT Service Management and IT Operations Management platform in the marketplace, ServiceNow is used by many organizations to address everything from self service IT requests to Change, Incident and Problem Management. The strength of the platform is in the workflows and processes that are built around the shared data model, represented in the CMDB. This provides the ‘single source of truth’ for the organization.
Puppet Enterprise is a leading automation platform focused on the IT Configuration Management and Compliance space. Puppet Enterprise has a unique perspective on the state of systems being managed, constantly being updated and kept accurate as part of the regular Puppet operation. Puppet Enterprise is the automation engine ensuring that the environment stays consistent and in compliance.
In this webinar, we will explore how to maximize the value of both solutions, with Puppet Enterprise automating the actions required to drive a change, and ServiceNow governing the process around that change, from definition to approval. We will introduce and demonstrate several published integration points between the two solutions, in the areas of Self-Service Infrastructure, Enriched Change Management and Automated Incident Registration.

Presented by: Margaret Lee, Product Manager, Puppet, and Ajay Sridhar, Sr. Sales Engineer, Puppet.
Accelerating azure adoption with puppet
The document discusses how Puppet can be used to accelerate adoption of Microsoft Azure. It describes lift and shift migration of on-premises workloads to Azure virtual machines. It also covers infrastructure as code using Puppet and Terraform for provisioning, configuration management using Puppet Bolt, and implementing immutable infrastructure patterns on Azure. Integrations with Azure services like Key Vault, Blob Storage and metadata service are presented. Patch management and inventory of Azure resources with Puppet are also summarized.
Puppet catalog Diff; Raphael Pinson
This document discusses using Puppet Catalog Diff to analyze the impact of changes between Puppet environments or catalogs. It provides the command line usage and options for Puppet Catalog Diff. It also discusses how to integrate Puppet Catalog Diff into CI/CD pipelines for automated impact analysis when merging code changes. Additional resources like GitHub projects and Dev.to posts are provided for learning more about diffing Puppet environments and catalogs.
ServiceNow and Puppet- better together, Kevin Reeuwijk
ServiceNow and Puppet can be integrated in four key areas: 1) Self-service infrastructure allows non-Puppet experts to control infrastructure through a ServiceNow interface; 2) Enriched change management automatically generates ServiceNow change requests from Puppet changes and populates them with impact details; 3) Automated incident registration forwards details of configuration drift corrections in Puppet to ServiceNow to create incidents; and 4) Up-to-date asset management would periodically upload Puppet inventory data to ServiceNow to keep the CMDB accurate without disruptive discovery runs.
Take control of your dev ops dumping ground
This document discusses how Puppet Relay uses Tekton pipelines to orchestrate containerized workflows. It provides an overview of how Tekton fits into the Relay architecture, with Tekton controllers managing taskrun pods to execute workflow steps defined in YAML. Triggers can initiate workflows based on events, with reusable and composable steps for tasks like provisioning infrastructure or clearing resources. Relay also includes features for parameters, secrets, outputs, and approvals to customize workflows. An ecosystem of open source integrations provides sample workflows and steps for common use cases.
100% Puppet Cloud Deployment of Legacy Software
This document discusses deploying legacy software into the AWS cloud using Puppet. It proposes modeling AWS resources like security groups, autoscaling groups, and launch configurations as Puppet resources. This would allow Puppet to provision the underlying AWS infrastructure and configure servers launched in autoscaling groups. It acknowledges challenges around server reboots but suggests they can be addressed. In summary, it argues custom Puppet resources can easily model AWS resources and using Puppet to configure autoscaling servers is possible despite some challenges around rebooting servers during deployment.
Puppet User Group
This document discusses a partnership between Republic Polytechnic's School of Infocomm and Puppet to promote DevOps practices. It introduces several people involved with the partnership and outlines their mission to prepare more IT companies and individuals for jobs in the DevOps field through training courses. The document describes some short courses offered on DevOps topics and using the Puppet and Microsoft Azure platforms. It provides an example of how Republic Polytechnic has automated infrastructure configuration using Puppet to save time and reduce errors. There is a request at the end for readers to register their interest in DevOps by completing a survey.
Continuous Compliance and DevSecOps
This document discusses continuous compliance and DevSecOps best practices followed by financial services organizations.
Continuous compliance is defined as an ongoing process of proactive risk management that delivers predictable, transparent, and cost-effective compliance results. It involves continuously monitoring compliance controls, providing real-time alerts for failures and remediation recommendations, and maintaining up-to-date policies. Best practices for continuous compliance discussed include defining CIS controls and benchmarks, achieving transparent compliance dashboards and automated fixes for breaches.
DevSecOps is introduced as bringing security earlier in the application development lifecycle to minimize vulnerabilities. It aims to make everyone accountable for security. Challenges discussed include security teams struggling to keep up with DevOps pace and
The Dynamic Duo of Puppet and Vault tame SSL Certificates, Nick Maludy
The document discusses using Puppet and Vault together to dynamically manage SSL certificates. Puppet can use the vault_cert resource to request signed certificates from Vault and configure services to use the certificates. On Windows, some additional logic is needed to retrieve certificates' thumbprints and bind services to certificates using those thumbprints. This approach provides automated certificate renewal and distribution across platforms.

Microservice Teams - How the cloud changes the way we work
A lot of technical challenges and complexity come with building a cloud-native and distributed architecture. The way we develop backend software has fundamentally changed in the last ten years. Managing a microservices architecture demands a lot of us to ensure observability and operational resiliency. But did you also change the way you run your development teams?
Sven will talk about Atlassian’s journey from a monolith to a multi-tenanted architecture and how it affected the way the engineering teams work. You will learn how we shifted to service ownership, moved to more autonomous teams (and its challenges), and established platform and enablement teams.

Odoo ERP Vs. Traditional ERP Systems – A Comparative Analysis
When it is all about ERP solutions, companies typically meet their needs with common ERP solutions like SAP, Oracle, and Microsoft Dynamics. These big players have demonstrated that ERP systems can be either simple or highly comprehensive. This remains true today, but there are new factors to consider, including a promising new contender in the market that’s Odoo. This blog compares Odoo ERP with traditional ERP systems and explains why many companies now see Odoo ERP as the best choice.
What are ERP Systems?
An ERP, or Enterprise Resource Planning, system provides your company with valuable information to help you make better decisions and boost your ROI. You should choose an ERP system based on your company’s specific needs. For instance, if you run a manufacturing or retail business, you will need an ERP system that efficiently manages inventory. A consulting firm, on the other hand, would benefit from an ERP system that enhances daily operations. Similarly, eCommerce stores would select an ERP system tailored to their needs.
Because different businesses have different requirements, ERP system functionalities can vary. Among the various ERP systems available, Odoo ERP is considered one of the best in the ERp market with more than 12 million global users today.
Odoo is an open-source ERP system initially designed for small to medium-sized businesses but now suitable for a wide range of companies. Odoo offers a scalable and configurable point-of-sale management solution and allows you to create customised modules for specific industries. Odoo is gaining more popularity because it is built in a way that allows easy customisation, has a user-friendly interface, and is affordable. Here, you will cover the main differences and get to know why Odoo is gaining attention despite the many other ERP systems available in the market.

Puppet Camp Atlanta 2014: Managing Classrooms with Puppet
- 1. Managing Classrooms with Puppet Caleb Cooper
- 2. Garden Montessori School “Plainly, the environment must be a living one, directed by a higher intelligence, arranged by an adult who is prepared for his mission.” -- Maria Montessori
- 3. About Me ● Started at 18. ● Grew with the school's IT infrastructure. ● Worked while in college. ● Became overwhelmed. ● Found Puppet. ● Learned to automate. ● Handed off the torch. “Such experiences are not just play…. It is work he must do in order to grow up.” -- Maria Montessori
- 4. Overview ● Starting off small. ● Trying something weird. ● Trying something ambitious. ● Freedom to expand. ● Better than the parts. ● Too much of a good thing. ● Building blocks. “The child becomes a person through work.” -- Maria Montessori
- 5. Starting Off Small Puppet is really good for installing programs and running services. But is it worth the effort? “The greatness of the human personality begins at the hour of birth.” -- Maria Montessori
- 6. Trying Something Weird Adding bookmarks is cumbersome, but Chrome configurations files are flat and human readable. Can I automate this? “Growth comes from activity, not from intellectual understanding.” -- Maria Montessori
- 7. Trying Something Ambitious Golden images don't grow and evolve. Can I bootstrap from Puppet? “Growth is not merely a harmonious increase in size, but a transformation.” -- Maria Montessori
- 8. Freedom to Expand Making new users was easy, but keeping them up to date was hard. Can I manage them all at once? “To assist a child we must provide him with an environment which will enable him to develop freely.” -- Maria Montessori
- 9. Better than the Parts BTSync runs as root and Puppet can't sync files efficiently. But together? “The child builds his inmost self out of the deeply held impressions he receives.” -- Maria Montessori
- 10. Too Much of a Good Thing Now that I am managing everything with Puppet, runs take way too long. Too much? “The child is an enigma… He has the highest potentialities, but we do not know what he will be.” -- Maria Montessori
- 11. Building Blocks Crafting mines is a popular pass-time and can even teach cool stuff. Can Puppet install unpackaged apps? “Never help a child with a task at which he feels he can succeed.” -- Maria Montessori
- 12. Questions? Caleb Cooper caleb@caleb-cooper.net Alex Bulkhak alex@bulkhak.com “Since it is through movement that the will realizes itself, we should assist a child in his attempts to put his will into act.” -- Maria Montessori
