The webinar provided an overview of literacy programs offered by Reading is Fundamental (RIF), USO, and The Hadley School for the Blind. RIF aims to motivate children to read and has distributed over 410 million books. The USO's United Through Reading program allows deployed parents to read stories to their children. The Hadley School provides distance education courses in braille and assistive technologies to over 10,000 blind students annually. Representatives from each organization discussed partnership opportunities for Lions clubs to support literacy and education initiatives.
This professional development agenda focuses on supporting new teachers. The agenda includes activities to help teachers develop skills in student motivation, classroom management, and meeting diverse learner needs. Teachers will participate in activities to brainstorm student motivation strategies, attend sessions on classroom management topics, and provide feedback through evaluations. The goal is to equip new teachers with skills to enhance student learning and achievement.
Traditional academic writing (essays, reports, etc.) often overlook the creative writing techniques that native English speakers receive throughout their education. Thus, what is needed is a reexamination of the syllabus to find creative writing opportunities. In addition, ESL/EFL teachers must be given the ability and confidence to teach writing. My workshop aims to accomplish these necessities.
This document introduces the Washington State K-12 Reading Model, which provides a framework to improve reading instruction and increase student achievement in reading.

The document discusses integrating the four primary language skills of listening, reading, speaking and writing in ESL/EFL instruction. It recommends that teachers weave the skills together like strands in a tapestry by choosing materials that promote integration of the skills and implementing tasks that combine skills even if a course focuses on one in particular. Teachers are also advised to reflect on how well they currently integrate the skills and learn ways to do so through content-based, task-based or combined approaches.
The document evaluates the Read Naturally reading intervention program used at Douglas Intermediate School. It analyzes student attendance, test scores, surveys of students, teachers, and parents to determine the program's effectiveness. The results were mixed - student test scores and grades improved for regular attendees, but not all teachers felt it helped or that missed class time interfered. While the program seems to benefit some students, it cannot be said to be the sole factor in raising reading achievement.

Grounded theory and machine learning methods have more similarities than initially expected. Both approaches involve modeling theories or descriptions up from the data through an iterative process of constant comparison between the emerging theory/description and the data. They also both involve modeling down from a priori premises by applying theorized categories or relationships to the data and refining them based on how well they fit the data. A key difference is that grounded theory aims to develop theory without prematurely imposing categories, while machine learning often involves applying theorized categories or relationships to data from the beginning.

Systems thinking for agile transformationsDhaval Panchal
culture change is free - comparison of systems leverage points for transformations
Culture of an organization often gets blamed for lack of transformation success. This session takes a systems view to organization transformation. In organization systems, points of leverage are powerful because a small shift in one thing can produce big changes in everything. Consequently the higher the leverage point the more the system will resist changing it. Direct attempts at changing organizational culture do not work, they lead to many haphazard attempts at behavior change but do not result in lasting transformation within organization. Many leaders attempt to shift organizational behavior and neglect underlying structures that give rise to dysfunctional behavior. We compare and contrast different systems leverage points, to draw distinction between leaders actions and more importantly mindset towards organizational transformation. Introduction to various systems thinking models with colorful examples from real world coaching situations will help you to think through your transformation challenges and learn why culture change is free, when you replace willpower with knowledge.
Are organizations like brains?
Examines the importance of information process, learning, and intelligence and provides a frame of reference for understanding and assessing modern organizations in these terms. It also provides a set of principles for creating “learning organizations”.
Privacy, Ethics, and Future Uses of the Social WebMatthew Russell

Seeking Evidence: Using the Science of Learning to Guide your eLearning Devel...Tom Gram
The document discusses evidence-based principles for designing effective eLearning based on how people learn. It covers gaining and maintaining learner attention through novelty; managing cognitive load when presenting information; designing meaningful practice opportunities; the importance of social and informal learning; and debunking common myths. The principles are supported by research from the science of learning on topics like memory, attention, motivation, expertise development, and knowledge transfer.
The document discusses knowledge management (KM), including definitions, objectives, challenges, and importance. KM involves connecting people who have knowledge with those who need it through processes, communities, and technology. It aims to leverage organizational knowledge and expertise to improve performance. Failure to share knowledge across boundaries can have serious consequences, as shown by disasters that may have been prevented with better communication.
Creating and Sustaining Skeptical TeamsMike Cardus
Workshop slides from Center for Inquiry Leadership Conference. How can you create & sustain teams of skeptical people that are able to keep their diverse knowledge and expertise while avoiding group think and spinning into an asphyxiating death spiral?
Big Data and machine learning are increasingly important in biomedical science and clinical practice. Big Data refers to large and complex datasets that are too large for traditional tools to handle. Machine learning involves algorithms that can recognize patterns in data without being explicitly programmed. Some challenges of working with big data and machine learning include issues with data volume, variety, and veracity. However, techniques like distributed analysis, standards, and validation can help address these challenges.
Mining the Social Web for Fun & Profit Within Your OrganizationDigital Reasoning
In this talk, Matthew Russell explores why it is imperative for organizations and companies to leverage social media and how they can do it. In today's world of massive, rapidly evolving data streams, it is very challenging to sift through the data and extract the hidden nuggets of critical business intelligence. With advances in machine learning and natural language processing, decision makers can now look at all of their data and see what's really important. Matthew presents examples of how companies like Digital Reasoning are using social media to answer questions like:
Who know whom, and what friends do they have in common?
How frequently are certain people communicating with one another?
Who are the quietest/chattiest people in a network?
Who are the most influential/popular people in a network?
What are people chatting about (and is it interesting)?
DataCenter supports grassroots organizing for social justice and sustainability through strategic research, training, and collaboration. They work to move the knowledge and solutions of marginalized communities to the center of decision-making. DataCenter coordinates research conducted by and for social movements to build political legitimacy and power for communities.
Capturing Social and Clinical Knowledge for personalised careVanessa Lopez
The document discusses how IBM Research is working on developing cognitive AI technologies using semantics, natural language processing, and machine learning to help care managers by providing personalized summaries of patient information, highlighting relevant concepts, and suggesting actions and assessments based on analyzing past patient cases and medical literature. The goal is to help scale best practices in integrated social and clinical care to improve outcomes while reducing costs.
Organizations are complex systems and as such they are not easy to change. When the old strategy is becoming non effective it is time to make a shift. A great tool for shifting entire organizations that responds to issues connected with complexity is Appreciative Inquiry. A brief introduction of the concept and principles initially developed by David Coperrider is presented. The method is contrasted with the traditional approach to organizational change - problem solving. The presentation is completed with a practitioner description of a typical Appreciative Inquiry project.
The document discusses the process of establishing a science center. It begins by explaining the concept of cointegration, where different stakeholders in the project like scientists, politicians, artists, and community leaders come together to share ideas. While the individual ideas may conflict initially, over time the group can identify relationships between the ideas. The document then discusses connecting these ideas to create new possibilities. Expectations for the science center are outlined, including increasing knowledge, skills, attitudes and creativity. Bringing together cointegrated ideas from the diverse group positively expands boundaries. Examples of results from this process include established science centers.
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
