This document discusses Melda Washington's past, present, and future experiences with information and technology. In the past, she found immediate gratification through sewing and combining different materials. Currently, she is learning about usability through a Drupal project and embracing rapid change by understanding swarm theory. In the future, she aims to remain agile by keeping current on technologies and continuing her education, and sees potential for a career in data analysis based on her skills and interests in databases and problem solving.

DAS Slides: Emerging Trends in Data Architecture – What’s the Next Big Thing?DATAVERSITY
With technological innovation and change occurring at an ever-increasing rate, it’s hard to keep track of what’s hype and what can provide practical value for your organization. Join this webinar to see the results of a recent DATAVERSITY survey on emerging trends in data architecture, along with practical commentary and advice from industry expert Donna Burbank.
How Universities Use Big Data to Transform EducationHortonworks
Student performance data is increasingly being captured as part of software-based and online classroom exercises and testing. This data can be augmented with behavioral data captured from sources such as social media, student-professor meeting notes, blogs, student surveys, and so forth to discover new insights to improve student learning. The results transcend traditional IT departments to focus on issues like retention, research, and the delivery of content and courses through new modalities.
Hortonworks is partnering with Microsoft to show you how the Hortonworks Data Platform (HDP) running on the Microsoft stack enables you to develop a “single view of a student”.
This material gives you the secret sauce for creating a pitch video to submit to any hackathon + CodeTheCurve hackathon that closes its application process on April 15th.

This deck covers some of the open problems in the big data analytics space, starting with a discussion of state-of-art analytics using Spark/Hadoop YARN. It details out whether each of these are appropriate technologies and explores alternatives wherever possible. It ends with an important problem discussion - how to build a single system to handle big data pipelines without explicit data transfers.

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.
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.

3. Mashups: Frankenstein of the
Web
A mashup is anything that
results from a combination of
data from different sources.
Mashup website consists of
several API’s
Early days of
mashups, programmers had to
web scrape websites to obtain
useful data.
Today, companies allow
mashup creators to utilize their
APIs for their applications as a
way of getting more exposure
for their products; thus
opening the gates for an
increasing rate of mashup site
4. Dopamine Squirters
Primary neurotransmitter found in the brain
that is responsible for happiness and other
emotions.
Provides feelings of enjoyment and
reinforcement that motivate a person
proactively to ―feel good.‖
Provides immediate gratification
Programmableweb lists 173 mashups tagged
games.
Most poplar are FlickerSudoku and Wii Earth.
APIs used include:
Flicker, MicrosoftBingMaps, GoogleMaps

usability sessions.
Emotions Mashup of what rookie Drupal users
feel…
confused and overwhelmed by Drupal’s presentation
of features/options.
alienated by unexplained terminology throughout
Drupal.
helpless because of a perceived lack of support.
in the dark about the extent of Drupal’s capabilities.
uncertain about his/her progress while performing
tasks.
stupid because they assume they are using Drupal
―incorrectly.‖
9. My Present: Drupal Usability
Experience
Redesign and CMS implementation of its
existing collections online search. The
redesigned collections online infrastructure
should improve the search site’s ease of
use, provide, and allow users access to the
most up-to-date content.

10. The Power of the Swarm
Kevin Kelly’s New Rules for the New Economy focus
on quotes that address the swarm
The aim of swarm power is superior performance in a
turbulent environment
Digital Swarming
Defined as a mashup of people, data, objects, and
machines
The Internet made collecting the wisdom of crowds much
easier than before.
When the swarm is diverse, independent and
decentralized, their combined decisions define the next big
trend.
Prediction Markets
It addresses the need for agility in the face of rapid change
11. My Future: Remaining Agile
Need to remain agile in a time of rapid
technology changes
Keep current
Certifications
Continuing education
Stay diverse
Embrace the Swarm
The competitive advantage belongs to those who
learn how to embrace decentralized points of
control.
