Backed by the might of Silicon Valley Cloud Boosters tend to see the Cloud as an irrevocable trend, and one that just brings magic with it. Against this, US critics as distinguished as Steve (Apple) Wozniak and the IT author Cory Doctorow have attacked the Cloud in terms of who gets to control your data, and in terms of its cost and speed when compared with local alternatives. Properly done, however, outsourcing can help create Winners. And those who fail to make a balance assessment of the Cloud's merits will turn out losers.

Internet of things - Business Opportunities in the Connected WorldJag Randhawa
Internet of Things (IoT) is next biggest thing since the birth of the Internet. It is going to impact our lives and businesses beyond anyone’s imaginations.
Session by Andrew Wyckoff, Director, Science, Technology and Innovation, OECD
Digitalisation has been underway for 50 years but crossed a critical threshold in last few years when over 80% of citizens in OECD countries had broadband subscriptions with the majority accessing the Internet via a smartphone. This era of ubiquitous computing is transformational, and the widespread deployment of this infrastructure means that products, activities and interactions are increasingly "digital" and can be easily shared, stored or exchanged globally via the Internet. As a consequence, data flows have grown and are a new raw material for innovation in industry and society, unleashing new business models and modes of social interaction. This transformation is just beginning and is poised to grow significantly as networked sensors and things become common-place. These changes are disruptive and also at odds with public policies – many of which are legacies of a pre-digital, analogue era. Reducing this gap and equipping policy-makers with ways to proactively seize the potential benefits and address the challenges related to digitalisation is at the core of a new cross-sectoral, multi-year project within the OECD.
These technological trends are not limited to one policy area, but their effects are particularly evident in the labour market, where they are profoundly affecting the nature of work, the structure and nature of the work environment, and the very nature of being an employee. We can’t predict exactly what the world of work will look like in the future or the specific types of jobs that will exist. What is clear, however, is that most sectors are already being affected. The platform (e.g. ‘sharing’, ‘gig’) economy offers workers great opportunities, including the flexibility of freelancing and holding multiple jobs (or gigs) to top up their income. At the same time, these new forms of work are challenging traditional institutions based on a unique employer-employee relationship. For instance, as new ways of organising work shift risk towards individual workers, who are increasingly in charge of their own training and of securing old-age and health insurance, existing models of social protection will need to be overhauled. How policy-makers, companies, employees and educators will adapt to these changes will mark the difference between being successful and being left behind.

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.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Emerging Markets Technology Group: Looks at tech in low income communities. Creates new or adapts existing to solve challenging problems.
Extremely infectious – passed with a cough. Easily infect 10-15 more. Concentrated in India: 2million of 9 million cases there.
Very treatable – but patients in challenging locations.
If supply chain breaks down or somehow course of treatment interrupted – can develop drug resistance.
For somebody who is poor, drug resistance becomes a death sentence.
Integration of some fairly simple technologies – fingerprint reader, basic computer, SMS to transmit data by cell – BUT so much more possible with Cloud computing.
Able to quickly detect where issues occur and follow up quickly.

The current blood collection system is facing 4 main challenges: low number of donors, the lack of a central database for blood centers, sub-optimal blood transport, and an imbalance of supply of different blood types.
The LifeCircle+ solution is based on 3 main modules. The first module consists of a mobile APP that provides a direct connection between donors and nearest blood centers by offering useful information about upcoming events, as well as enabling the donor to immediately react in case of a critical situation. The second module is the software implemented by blood centers that ensures an optimal management of the blood supply and the registered donors by calculating the best route for blood transports when needed and maintaining the center’s optimal level in blood banks. The third modules aims to promote the idea of becoming a donor and linking existing donors by connecting the APP users (blood donors) to popular social media sites.
By using the Windows Azure cloud platform to run LifeCircle+, Hilverse enjoys flexible scalability of this unique solution. This is very useful for managing a complex centralised database of donors, centers and events. Also, by using the power of the Microsoft Cloud, LifeCircle+ can take advantage of the possibility to deploy the system regardless of the geographical location. Since the application is using the power of the Azure Cloud, the donation centers can communicate efficiently with each other and track the right donors from any location.
The prototype of LifeCircle+ was developed by the winning team of the Polish Microsoft ImagineCup 2011. In 2012 the project was awarded the title of Best Application of the “Your business, your fame - 2012” in Poland.
