How social media is being used to improve healthLinda Daley
The document discusses how social media is being used for social marketing campaigns to promote health. It provides insights from four industry experts on how social media has changed social marketing, the benefits and drawbacks of using social media, and best practices. The experts note that social media allows for more targeted, interactive communication but also greater competition and need for strategic use of appropriate channels. They believe social media will continue to be an important part of health campaigns if used to tell compelling stories and give people a voice.
This document outlines the topics and objectives covered in a course on SAP BPC 10.1 NW Classic Administration and Planning. The course covers concepts like business objects, modeling, security, creating reports and input forms in Excel, formatting, formulas, books, the new web client, data acquisition, logic scripts, drill through, business process flows, dashboards, and Word/PowerPoint integration. It also covers consolidation frameworks, dimensions, consolidation logic, data collection, currency translation, ownership manager, consolidation of investments, and intercompany eliminations.
This document outlines the content covered in a SAP BPC 10 training course. It includes 150 topics that will be covered, such as planning, forecasting, budgeting, consolidation, data loading, reporting, dashboards, and certification preparation. The training will provide an in-depth overview of SAP BPC 10 and how to implement and use its various components and features. Students will learn through explanations, demonstrations on a BPC 10 system, documentation, and practice files.

Performance and scalability for machine learningArnaud Rachez
This document discusses performance, parallelism, and scalability for machine learning. It begins by showing how optimizing stochastic gradient descent (SGD) using Python, Numba, NumPy, and Cython can speed it up versus pure Python. It also discusses optimizing for memory layout and caching. A case study shows optimizing Gensim's word2vec by rewriting it in Cython and leveraging BLAS for further speedups. The document discusses how hardware trends have increased parallelism through more cores. It describes parallelizing word2vec training using threads, achieving near linear speedup. Finally, it mentions experimenting with an asynchronous, lock-free implementation of SAG in Julia.
Poland experienced a devastating period during World War 2 where it lost over 15% of its population. It was conquered first by Germany in 1939 and then by the Soviet Union in 1944, leading it to become a communist country under Soviet control. Poland struggled economically under the communist system until reforms began in the late 1980s and it transitioned to a market economy. While Poland has made significant economic progress since joining the EU and NATO in the early 2000s, it still faces challenges like unemployment and infrastructure issues.
This document provides an overview of simple, free tools that can be used for student engagement. It describes tools such as VoiceThread, instructor videos, YouTube, discussion forums, Yammer, Google Docs, and blogs. For each tool, it provides reasons for using the tool and best practices, such as keeping videos short, setting clear expectations for discussion boards, and providing instructions for using collaborative documents. The document was created by two instructional designers at Penn State to help instructors select and effectively implement digital tools for online courses.
Faculty Development as Flexible Performance: Towards a Competency-Based Curri...Andrew Tatusko
Description
The Penn State World Campus faculty development curriculum focuses on topics of interest and competencies for effective online teaching and trains faculty to understand those competencies, but it is light on assessing faculty competence for online teaching. The program also does not have robust incentives for faculty to persist in their acquisition of new skills. Finally, faculty are coming to online teaching with prior learning and competencies that we do not measure and so, we have not had a mechanism to offer them different levels of competency mastery.
The redesign of the Penn State World Campus Faculty Development program fuses research in competency-based curriculum and the Teaching for Understanding (TfU) framework (Wiske, 1998) in order for faculty to demonstrate understanding of online teaching and learning through flexible performances. The foundation for the new curriculum is a map that faculty can use to support and improve their online teaching consistent with their prior learning and experience. The curriculum also breaks ground by using Penn State University’s new badging system as a way to assess and track faculty achievements and progress through the curriculum.
Learning Outcomes
As a result of attending this session, audience members will …
see how the Penn State World Campus faculty development unit scales its work to meet the needs of a large population of faculty and students.
gain a working knowledge of competency-based learning and the Teaching for Understanding framework.
gain a working knowledge of how badging and competence are linked.
discuss strategies for assessing faculty competence in teaching and learning.
draft one flexible performance they can implement with their faculty to assess one skill or competency in teaching and learning.
This document provides a summary of large scale machine learning frameworks. It discusses out-of-core learning, data parallelism using MapReduce, graph parallel frameworks like Pregel, and model parallelism using parameter servers. Spark is described as easy to use with a well-designed API, while GraphLab is designed for ML researchers with vertex programming. Parameter servers are presented as aiming to support very large learning but still being in early development.
The document summarizes a student's phenology project observing the changes in a tulip poplar tree over six weeks in the fall. Phenology is the study of seasonal natural phenomena and how plants and animals adapt to changes in climate. The student documented how the tree's leaves changed from green to yellow to orange and brown as temperatures dropped and sunlight decreased. Fungus also affected some leaves. By observing these seasonal changes, the student learned that trees store energy in their roots to survive the winter without leaves.
