Slides for my presentation at GeeCON 2015 and Devoxx UK 2015.
Abstract: http://cfp.devoxx.co.uk/2015/talk/WON-7526/TestOps_-_Chasing_the_White_Whale_
Video from Devoxx: https://www.parleys.com/tutorial/testops-chasing-white-whale
Ioana Serban - TestOps - Chasing the White WhaleCodemotion
TestOps is the reclusive member of the DevOps family. Although we’ve heard stories, most of us have never seen it in the wild. I’ve turned to my personal experience to search for clues about what TestOps is. Join me on an adventure as we explore the things that happen when the worlds of testing and operations collide, with real-life stories about choosing an AWS architecture, tackling an environment migration and mitigating a DOS attack. Finally, we’ll dare to look into the future at what can happen when applying a TestOps mentality to our job and what regular teams can do to get there.
We are the same creatures as we have always been...only the technology has changed everything around us and about us. This slide show has very few words. You have to absorb the images and the contrasts between them to get the idea. Tell me what you think.
Organizations are good at talking about and choosing change but equally important are the plans we develop bring others along with the change. Wise leaders are turning to neuroscience and cognitive psychology to break through our natural "guardians of change." One helpful tool could be what's called the ACE plan, a three-step approach to make transition management stick. In addition, you'll learn why our brains resist change and how to design strategies that make our thinking caps more receptive. Take back a fresh strategy that invites and empowers other to be positively part of the change process.
Typical characteristics of students with LD are explained through these slides. These characteristics, taken independently or in combination do not necessarily indicate a learning disability. Further assessments using standardized assessment tools must be done for tht.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.

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.
