Selfish Accessibility — YGLF Vilnius
We can pretend that we’re helping others by making websites and software accessible, but we are really making them better for our future selves. Learn some fundamentals of accessibility and how it can benefit you (whether future you from ageing or you after something else limits your abilities).
We’ll review simple testing techniques, basic features and enhancements, coming trends, and where to get help. This is an overall primer for those who aren’t sure where to start nor how it helps them.
WordPress Beginner: Choosing & Customizing Your Theme
The document discusses choosing and customizing WordPress themes. It explains that a theme controls the colors, layout, and user interface of a site but does not store content. Free themes can be experimented with but may not be well supported, while premium themes between $30-100 are professionally designed with more features and support. The document provides guidance on where to find themes, what to look for in a theme like design, functionality, updates and security, and how to install and customize themes.
Introduction to web sites design
The document provides an overview of web page design and how to create a basic website. It discusses objectives like creating pages with titles, text, images and hyperlinks. It defines what a website is and how they work by being uploaded to an FTP server and accessed by users. It outlines the steps to design a site, including deciding the purpose, flowcharting content, designing interfaces and beginning creation. It also discusses using HTML and web design software to build pages and shares examples of effective and ineffective design practices.
Wireframing and design short course
This document discusses information architecture (IA) and how it relates to web design. It defines IA as organizing and structuring information, like with libraries. Early websites made their IA very visible through home page maps and categories. Designers use diagrams like concept models, flowcharts, and site maps to visualize the IA. These inform the design process, which involves research, generating design ideas through IA diagrams, and wireframing pages. Wireframes depict page layout and functionality without graphics. They connect IA to visual design and allow rapid prototyping. The document provides examples of low- and high-fidelity wireframes using different tools, and demonstrates wireframing a homepage and resume page to specified requirements.
Connecting Rural Communities
There are three main things needed to set up a basic website: a domain name, web hosting, and content.

"You didn't build that": Copyright, Fair Use, and the Creative Commons Movement
This document summarizes guidelines for using copyrighted media in student multimedia projects under the principle of fair use. It explains that fair use allows students to incorporate portions of lawfully acquired copyrighted works for educational projects in a course. It provides limitations for different types of media, such as 10% or 3 minutes of video, no more than 5 images per photographer, and no more than 250 words of poetry.

African Americans in the Civil War
1) African American soldiers proved themselves worthy of citizenship by fighting for the United States in the Civil War, according to Frederick Douglass and others.
2) However, some Confederate generals, like Sherman, were skeptical of African Americans' ability to perform complex battlefield roles besides direct combat.
3) By late in the war, the Union had embraced arming African Americans as a powerful way to undermine the Confederacy and weaken them by thousands of potential soldiers.
The Civil War in the Age of Civil Rights
This document summarizes the changing narratives around the causes and outcomes of the American Civil War over time. It discusses how the South initially seceded to protect slavery, while the North fought to preserve the Union. After the Emancipation Proclamation, the goal of freeing slaves became more central to the North's efforts. However, after Reconstruction ended, the dominant view in the South was the "Lost Cause" narrative that portrayed the war as being over states' rights rather than slavery. This narrative was increasingly challenged in the 20th century by the Civil Rights Movement.
Gone with the Wind: High Water Mark of the Lost Cause
The document discusses Gone with the Wind, both the novel and the film adaptation. It summarizes that the novel was a best-selling Pulitzer Prize winner, while the film was pioneering in its use of Technicolor and remains the highest-grossing film of all time adjusted for inflation. Though the film moderated some of the novel's racism, it still presented a benign view of slavery and retained some stereotypical portrayals of black characters. The film also reinforced the Lost Cause myth of the honorable South.
Southern Honor
Southern honor had three interrelated components according to Bertram Wyatt-Brown's book Southern Honor: Ethics and Behavior in the Old South. First, honor involved an inner conviction of self-worth. Second, it required publicly claiming that self-assessment. Third, honor depended on the public's assessment of one's behavior and whether it matched one's claim. Thus, honor combined internal self-regard with external evaluation by one's community. It served as an ethical guide for how individuals located themselves within the social hierarchy.
Journey to Gettysburg
The document summarizes key Civil War battles from 1861 to 1863 that led up to the pivotal Battle of Gettysburg in July 1863. It describes Confederate victories such as Bull Run and Fredericksburg for the Union, as well as significant battles like Shiloh, Antietam, and Chancellorsville. It concludes by noting that in June 1863, Robert E. Lee began marching his Confederate army into Pennsylvania towards Gettysburg.
Four Major Interpretive Tradition of the American Civil War
The document outlines four interpretive traditions of the American Civil War:
1) The Lost Cause tradition romanticizes the Old South and portrays secession and the Confederacy in a positive light.
2) The Union Cause tradition views the Union as the last hope for democracy and sees the war as necessary to preserve the United States.
3) The Emancipation Cause focuses on the emancipation of four million slaves as a result of the war.
4) The Reconciliation Cause downplays emancipation and celebrates the Blue and Gray armies together after the war ended with the capitulation of the Confederacy to the Lost Cause interpretation.
Still Fighting the Civil War
Americans still debate key issues from the Civil War, including:
1) What was the war about and what did soldiers fight for? Was it about states' rights or slavery?
2) Which side can claim the moral high ground?
3) Did the ends justify the means used by either side?
4) Which side was more racist?
The document provides examples of continuing divisions over symbols and interpretations of the Civil War such as protests at the Lincoln Memorial dedication and debates over textbooks and monuments.
Student Use of Multimedia: What You Need to Know
This document discusses copyright and fair use guidelines for using multimedia in student projects. It explains that most creative works are copyrighted unless in the public domain or used with permission. Students can use original works they create, works that are public domain, and portions of copyrighted works under fair use for educational projects. Fair use allows use of small portions of text, images, music and videos. Recent court cases have supported educational fair use. The document encourages sharing works through Creative Commons licensing.
Editing stills
The document provides guidelines for editing photos for multimedia storytelling. It states that photographers may edit photos to make them look more like what was seen with the naked eye, but they cannot add or remove anything from the photo. Specific allowed edits include cropping to improve composition, improving overexposed or underexposed shots, adjusting colors for realism, and sharpening for enhanced clarity.

Puritan Essentials
This document provides an overview of the Puritans who settled in New England in the early 1600s. It discusses the Separatists who arrived on the Mayflower and settled Plymouth and the non-separating Puritans who arrived on the Arbella and established the Massachusetts Bay colony. The basic theology of the Puritans is outlined, focusing on concepts like total depravity and unconditional election. Key passages from John Winthrop's sermon "A Modell of Christian Charitie" are analyzed, including his arguments for why God created inequality and his vision of Christians united by "the bond of perfection" of love for one another.
Elements of Journalism, Chap 1
This document discusses the purpose and importance of journalism in a democratic society. It asserts that journalism is meant to provide citizens with information to allow them to be self-governing. However, it notes threats currently facing journalism from the internet, shifts in consumer behavior, government influence, corporate conglomerations, and journalistic arrogance. It outlines Walter Lippmann's view of the public as ignorant and in need of an elite press to filter information, and John Dewey's counter perspective of the public being capable of self-realization with reliable journalism. The document proposes the theory of an "interlocking public" to reframe the relationship between journalists and the people.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
