Desktop management has always been the talking point for companies as they can save costs by deploying innovative technologies and models. While some firms have resorted to technologies like Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) and Remote Desktop Services (RDS), one more contemporary desktop delivery model, called Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS), has gradually evolved. Providing access to desktops anytime anywhere forms the basis of DaaS wherein these desktops are on cloud. However, this report provides information on how particular types of DaaS will fare in the market and which model would be best to invest in as an end- user of the technology.
This report presents interpretative and easy-to-understand facts on how the current DaaS market is segmented based on end-user verticals, product types, delivery models, and geographies. It cuts through several facets of the DaaS market such as market size, market share for each segment, and the drivers and constraints of this marketplace.

Francesca Gottschalk - How can education support child empowerment.pptxEduSkills OECD
Francesca Gottschalk from the OECD’s Centre for Educational Research and Innovation presents at the Ask an Expert Webinar: How can education support child empowerment?
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin

Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. Question 1
In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge
forms and conventions of real media products?
My magazine is based off of the „Top of the Pops‟ magazine, which is quite popular
for girls between 11-16. I chose this magazine primarily for the genre of music that
would be based for the magazine. The music that is used mainly for the magazine is
pop music. This music is very popular for girls this age, as they start to find new
bands, and then they expand into different types of genre for music.
My magazine has parts to it that are exactly the same as the original. I like the way
that I have organised everything on my magazine, as it is place the way that I like. I
hope that girls between 11-16 would buy it. The way that many of the items are laid
out you would instantly think that it was aimed at girls, especially for the colours
that are placed on it. The colours are very bright, so that they can catch the readers
eye, as well as the person who is on the cover. The cover is the main part, as well as
the main stories that are inside, but a majority of people will buy the magazine for
the person on the front. The layout of the images and the text for the cover was a
little complicated, as there were many shapes that were placed everywhere, and the
colour scheme was hard to try and copy or have it similar to.
The front cover, I would say I chose because of the way that the main image is
positioned. I like the way that the arm comes up and its placed on the head. This is
what caught my eye when I chose it and so I had my model a pose similar to it.
3. The similarities that I share with conventional magazines
would be the way that I have made the colours bright and
the title bold so that it would classed as “eye catching”.
Many of the magazines have it with a new item being
shown on the front but I wanted to follow a specific design
so I chose a magazine where I could easily create it. Along
with the fact that I have different images in the text
boxes, as the one of the right shows only 3 separate
people, I decided to add a group one into the bottom one
because I wanted to show a different side to the magazine
as well as add different quotes for the audience to read.
With many conventional magazines you would normally
see the masthead on a straight line , no angle
added, but what I like about this magazine is that the
masthead is in a different angle and there are little
stars that are around it. Other main images used on a
magazine would see them holding a specific object or
they have a certain background in the background as if
the images was taken outside, but with these
ones, they are created with a green screen on a simple
white backdrop.
4. I would say that my magazine is your average teen magazine, that is
based around gossip and images of celebrities. Top of the Pops looks at
singers, actors and then other people who would be classed as
celebrities, and they have different sections of the magazine that you
can look at that will make you laugh, because you can have your own say
with what a celebrity might say. As well as that they all have a true story
on the inside as well. The true stories are all shocking, because they are
a way of telling young girls and boys to not make the same mistakes as
them. It brings in radio presenters to help them spread the word and to
give their own advice. Usually fans would send in some art or a quote, or
a picture of all of their band merchandise and the radio presenters
would comment on them in the magazine.
With the colours and the way that the
magazine is set out you can easily tell that
the magazine would most likely be based for
those that are aged 11-16. This is what I was
aiming for. I like the fact that on the front of
the magazine you can usually find a
competition going on where you can either
win a prize or you can meet a celebrity. This
is a great way for the magazine to reach out
to it audience.
I wouldn‟t say that my magazine is challenging in any
particular way, only because of the way that I have based
it out and the fact that it looks very similar to the original
magazine. There are so many similarities with the
magazines, that it is a basic copy of the other. The only
thing that is original would be the interview with the main
groups on the double page spread.
5. Masthead – With the letter having a
bold look to them and being stretched
the masthead is one of the things to
be noticed first.
Main cover line, bigger font than the rest
of the page, because this is one of the
main articles, and the bolded out to
make it important. Being put in capital
letters makes it more interesting, along
with the fact that it could have been
white writing instead of black, but the
black shows up more.
Cover lines, with little quotes to show
the emotions from the celebrity and
then the name of the band, put into a
blue box, to highlight it.
The exclamation marks show
excitement. Especially since at the
beginning of the sentence it says
OMG!
Main image - The model
looks straight at the reader.
Pulled quote straight from the
interview. Put onto a pink
background because it works well
with the bold black font.
Important information on the
inside because of the
exclamation point that has
been added.
Magazines price and the date of
publish.
Cover pictures lined up, and
bordered by a pink banner that
they all sit in. Along with the bold
black writing saying what is
included on the inside.
6. Contents page
Each of the magazine covers have the same sort
of thing happening in all of them. They have the
magazine labelled with all of the places that the
information is based on and then they have the
shopping in the corner as well as have having a
group image or a poster image in the opposite
corner to the shopping. I wanted to try and do
the same thing with the other magazine
contents, I believe I have achieved it, but I have
an issue with the “highlighting” of the
information. In the magazine it actually looks
like a highlighter was put onto the page, while
with mine it is just a box filled with yellow. The
magazine has a proper teenage look to it, as the
colours are bright, but they don‟t over power
the page.
7. Double Page Spread
I like the idea of have the interview at the bottom of the page
so that there is still plenty of room for everything else on the
page. It doesn‟t overcrowd the images, which is good because
audiences like the idea of seeing nice pictures of their
celebrities. Each of these examples are from a “Top of the
Pops” magazine. They all have a similar scene to them, where
a object it being held, also a certain background which covers
mostly everything in the picture.
I used this design
because I like the
idea of the “see no
evil, hear no evil
and speak no evil”.
It worked well with
the models from the
“Top of the Pops”
magazine so I
decided to give it a
go and it actually
worked really well.
