The document discusses the benefits of using social media like blogs and Twitter in the classroom. It argues that these tools can boost test scores and teacher satisfaction by allowing teachers to easily find vetted lesson plans and activities from other educators. Specific benefits mentioned include making lesson planning easier through collections on sites like Virtual Filing Cabinets, and staying inspired by other teachers to improve one's own practice through online collaboration and feedback. The document encourages teachers to spend time exploring math education blogs and Twitter to find new ideas and resources to enhance their teaching.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

OF USING ONLINE
NETWORKS TO BOOST TEST
SCORES AND TEACHER
SATISFACTION

41. the huge benefit
it saves you time and makes you a better
teacher. period.
this is stuff used by people like you and me
in the classroom. they are trying to break
the mold of EXPLAIN-SHOW-PRACTICE.
what you get is vetted. by normal teachers
trying to get better.
43. how bloging and twittering
changed my life
notes in case i have a brain freeze
Lonely in a friendly and awesome department.
Standards Based Grading. Reoriented my thinking.
New set of colleagues all around the United States (and, in fact, the world) – TMC.
What I do inside my classroom can have an impact outside my classroom. And similarly,
the things other people do inside their classrooms have an impact on mine.
Feeling sucky at teaching. Being sucky at what I do. Inspired and pushed to be less
sucky.
44. For the remaining time, play around on the site below.
You can see who we are, some cool things we’ve done
together, and read about getting started with blogging
and twittering.
I’d love to get you started with a google reader. If you
want to set that up now and add a few people to it, let

Editor's Notes
Today I’m going to talk about blogs and twitter with you…
If I were in your place right now, and I would be rolling my eyes. Like so far they’d be in the back of my head.
I hear ya. You’re just weeks away from starting your first day in the classroom as a full time math teacher. You’re here at a professional development workshop trying to get all those concrete things you need to get started. And this kid who has only been teaching 5 years is here to spend 30 minutes talking to me about blogs and twitter? My eyes would be in the back of my head now too. But I promise you that my goal is not to waste your time.
So for these 27.5 minutes that I have left, I’m going to try to convince you that I have something that I can offer you that will be concretely useful. And if I’ve failed, I suppose that’s ½ an episode of a rerun of Buffy I prevented you from watching. Or 15 pages of 50 Shades of Grey I got in the way of you reading. But if I succeed, you’re going to have such good things at your fingertips.
