Geography is important to teach in elementary schools for several reasons:
1) Geography provides conceptual links between a child's home, school, and the wider world by starting locally and expanding outwards.
2) It deals with how people interact with environments and each other in different places, allowing students to draw generalizations about the complex world.
3) Geography education provides knowledge of physical and cultural characteristics of the world as well as an understanding of ourselves, our relationship to Earth, and interdependence with other peoples.
Reduse, reuse,recycle
Reducing waste, reusing materials, and recycling are important ways to help the environment. When we reduce what we use, reuse items instead of throwing them out, and recycle materials it keeps trash out of landfills and saves natural resources. If everyone does their part to reduce, reuse and recycle it can make a big difference for our planet.

香港六合彩
尚在香港六合彩情窦初开有女怀春的妙龄，第一次与眼前这个使人动心陌生男人四香港六合彩目相对的瞬间，秀秀的俏眼里也突然闪过了一道香港六合彩光亮，她一时真有些不知道如何面对。终于，未嫁女孩香港六合彩面对陌生男人的天生羞涩还是使她马上无言地低下了香港六合彩头，一绺乌黑发亮的秀发滑下来遮盖了她脸上那少女香港六合彩初识男人才有的慌乱。
俗语讲，青年男女就怕是一见钟情看对了香港六合彩眼，那恐怕就是亲爹亲娘也阻止不了的事情了。从古以来男香港六合彩女之间的此情此景也许是王实甫在元曲西厢记里创香港六合彩造《惊艳》那出剧目的灵感源泉。人与人之间是不是应该有那看不见摸不到的心灵香港六合彩相通？青年男女一见面产生的莫名好感甚至一定终生更是有现今科学还难以达到香港六合彩的神秘领地，这些情感现象真的是不能用文学上的投缘香港六合彩二字或是生物学里性激素的传递来解释清楚的。此时，不单是涉世不深的女孩面色生香港六合彩春胸中鹿撞，就连这个久经情场爱阵的小伙子也无顾左右心猿意马起来。

The document discusses unflattening the online classroom. It introduces the author as an educator with nearly 20 years of experience, including 10 years teaching online courses. It notes that traditional classrooms involve buying a textbook, reading it, discussing it in class, and taking a test or writing a paper. However, online classrooms were originally limited to early versions that focused only on course content without collaboration. The author advocates moving beyond these limitations to think of new possibilities for online education.

Scaffolded Writing and Reviewing in the Disciplines(SWoRD) is a web-based peer-review system. One of the primary innovations of SWoRD, relative to other peer review tools, is the scoring algorithm through which peer review scores are converted into student grades for both writing and reviewing. In this session, I will discuss my experience with SWoRD, which I used in Spring 2011 for an upper-division writing course for economics majors, replacing my previous system of ‘manual’ peer review (i.e., students swapping papers)Community Collaboration
This document discusses using a wiki as a collaborative tool for writing. It proposes creating a new health communication course that focuses on communicating sustainability at work. Students will assess workplace behaviors and policies that impact wellness and sustainability, and devise communication strategies. Students will collaborate in teams to construct a wiki on a sustainability topic, including investigating the topic, analyzing information, designing wiki pages, and presenting their wiki. Wikis allow collaborative writing and constant evolution. This assignment outlines components for the sustainability topic wikis and a grading rubric.
Next Generation Response Systems at SDSU
The document summarizes SDSU's evaluation and selection of a new student response system to replace its existing eInstruction clickers. It discusses the benefits and challenges of clickers, presents results from a trial of the top two systems (i>clicker and Poll Everywhere), and demonstrates i>clicker. Based on faculty, student, and staff ratings across 15 criteria, i>clicker was preferred and was seen as simpler and more consistent than the alternatives. SDSU plans to transition mainly to the lower-cost i>clicker system starting next year.

The iPad: Sign of the times, but which way does it point?
Some see the iPad as one more way for people to find endless distractions and entertainments, a nail in the coffin for those who seek to "amuse themselves to death." Others believe the iPad is the best exemplar to date of the possibilities for extending human abilities to learn, connect, and create via powerful portable computing devices. Either way, the iPad and its ilk deserve attention from educators considering the future of teaching and learning. This session will open a conversation about the possibilities, in the hopes of helping participants to move beyond their preconceptions and biases.

Oceans (320) of Opportunity: Rebooting a GE Explorations course, Course Design Institute and pICT SDSU
The popular OCEAN320 The Oceans course was rebooted from the ground up to (1) promote SDSU's new GE capacities and goals and (2) capitalize upon the strengths of online learning. Every quanta of new course content was reversed-engineered from learning outcomes designed to help students appreciate the scientific context and societal complexity of major oceanographic issues, such as ocean warming and acidification, overfishing and aquaculture, and petroleum exploitation and risk. The course is structured into scaffolding learning modules, each comprised of an integrated sequence of live Wimba sessions and an array of student-centered activities based on readings, videos, and web-based simulations. This effort has been an extremely rewarding (and exhausting) educational endeavor, and has forced me to re-evaluate my role as an educator in a increasingly stressed world where information is no longer scarce but often overwhelming.Reljic on The Impact of Instructor Immediacy Behaviors in Online Learning Env...

Providing Online Support for Student Writing
With class sizes increasing, it is becoming increasingly difficult to support research and writing activities. The extra workload associated with grading, checking assignments, and providing support outside of the classroom can become overwhelming. Through my experience in the Course Design Institute, I have learned about several tools that will be useful for increasing research and writing activities while maintaining a manageable workload. I have incorporated the use of online tools to support writing activities in a large undergraduate course, including Blackboard, Google Docs, and Wimba Classroom. In this session I will describe what worked and what didn’t work, and I will provide a brief demonstration of the techniques that have been most useful.
An Experimental Study of Instructor Immediacy
This study examined the effects of instructor immediacy and communication media on student perceptions, cognitive learning, perceived learning, and satisfaction in a virtual classroom. Participants experienced teaching sessions that manipulated immediacy (high vs. low) and media (video vs. photo). Results showed that students in the high-immediacy groups rated the instructor higher on immediacy measures and performed better on cognitive tests than those in low-immediacy groups. The group with high immediacy and video scored highest overall. While all groups showed cognitive gains, those exposed to higher immediacy learned more. Future research could address limitations and further explore the role of immediacy and media in virtual learning.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

"Scaling RAG Applications to serve millions of users", Kevin Goedecke
How we managed to grow and scale a RAG application from zero to thousands of users in 7 months. Lessons from technical challenges around managing high load for LLMs, RAGs and Vector databases.
From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMs
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.
The LLM acts as an intermediary agent, offering a transparent experience to users automatically and potentially uncovering relevant documents that conventional search methods might overlook. The presentation will include the results of this experimental work, lessons learned, best practices, and the scope of future work that should improve the approach and make it production-ready.
Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
