The document discusses the technologies used during each stage of constructing a college magazine. It found that exploring new programs like InDesign and Blogger through preliminary tasks made them easier to use for later stages. Google was frequently used for research, and skills with PowerPoint, Word, and InDesign grew over time. Taking photos with an SLR camera and editing in Photoshop produced high quality images for the final magazine. Evaluation programs like Pixton and Prezi allowed for creative presentation while maintaining understanding of the basics.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work.

3. For my preliminary task I used the following programmes:
- InDesign
InDesign allowed me to create my magazine in a professional creative way
- Google
Google allowed me to find example magazines, what a college magazine is expected to include
and to develop my ideas about my magazine.
- Photoshop
Photoshop allowed me to edit my photos to get the best quality look for them on my
magazine
- Blogger
Blogger allowed me to upload my magazine and tasks and present my work in a creative way.
- Slide share
Slide share allowed me to create a link to upload my research onto my blog
PRELIMINARY TASK
4. At first I found it quite difficult when using some of the
programmes as I had not used them before. After experimenting
and exploring the programmes whilst making my magazine, as
well as help from my teacher about how to do things, I soon got
the hang of how the programmes worked. This helped a lot
throughout the rest of the development.
Although I have not made a blog before, I found blogger was an
easy website to use. It is fairly easy to upload work and is
quickly understandable.
InDesign was a new programme to me, I had never heard of it
before. After being taught about how to use the programme and
exploring it whilst making my college magazine it became
easier to use and understand where everything was. If I got
stuck I used tutorials online.
Slide share was also a new programme to use, but I quickly
understood how to use it.
OVERALL
5. For my research I used the following programmes
- PowerPoint
Power Point allowed me to create my research and present it
- Word
Word allowed me to create my research and present it
- Google
Google allowed me to find information from other magazines such as NME and get images
- Survey Monkey
Survey monkey allowed me to create a questionnaire and send it out to receive information.
- Blogger
I used blogger to upload all of my research to my blog
- Slideshare
I used slideshare to help upload some of my research such as PowerPoints
RESEARCH
6. After my preliminary task I found most of the programmes
easier to use. I was used to using PowerPoint and Word
therefore I didn’t have any problem with using them so they
were straight forward. After my preliminary task I understood
how to use blogger and slide share better.
I used Google a lot for my research task as It was a quick and
easy way to get information. I used Alexa.com to find out
information about the target audience of specific magazines.
I chose PowerPoint to present my work on as it was easy to add
images and text in a clear way. I used simple themes on my
slide so you concentrate more on my work than on the design.
OVERALL
7. For my planning I used the following programmes;
- InDesign
InDesign allowed me to create my mock ups
- Word
Word allowed me to present my planning
- PowerPoint
PowerPoint allowed me to present my planning
- Google
Google allowed me to get images for my mood board
- Slide share
Slide share allowed me to upload my research such as PowerPoint's
- Blogger
Blogger allowed me to present all of my planning work
- Mobile
I used my mobile to contact my models
PLANNING
8. After my preliminary and research task I understood how to use
blogger and slide share better. I also found it much easier to
use InDesign for my planning as I had previously used it for my
preliminary task.
I took advantage of the technology we have as I used my mobile
phone to contact my models in case of any changes I needed to
know of quickly.
Once I had finished all of my planning it soon became clear
what sort of images I wanted to take for my front
cover, contents page and double page spread. This made it
easier for me when I was taking them.
OVERALL
9. For my production I used the following programmes;
- Nikon DSLR camera
I used a digital camera to take the photos for my magazine
- USB
I used a USB to transfer all my images of f of my camera onto the computer
- Photoshop
I used photoshop to see if I wanted to edit some of my photos or not, I didn’t edit my photos in
the end as they looked better as original
- InDesign
I used InDesign to create my final magazine
- Blogger
Blogger allowed me to upload all of my work and present it on my blog
PRODUCTION
10. The SLR camera that I used created good quality images for my
magazine, I went to edit them but the originals looked better so
I stuck to them. From my preliminary task and research i had
done I found that the images you use are more important as
they attract the readers. I took this into consideration when
taking my photographs. I thought that taking the photos in a
field looked good and different compared to other magazine
front covers which reflects the individuality.
The preliminary task helped me learn how to use InDesign so
when it came to creating my final magazine I understood where
everything was and how to use it.
OVERALL
11. For my evaluation i used the following programmes:
- Pixton.com
- Prezi.com
- Xtranormal.com
- PowerPoint
All of these programmes helped me to answer each of my
evaluation questions.
EVALUATION
12. As I had not used most of these programmes before I found
them a bit difficult to use. After watching a few tutorials I soon
got the hang of how to use each of the programmes. Xtranormal
was easy to use but due to the voice some of the words do get
pronounced wrong. I have used Prezi before so I understood the
basics of using it. I soon fully understood how to use the
programme as it is fairly easy to use, but yet also creative. I
have never used Pixton before but it was a really creative
programme to use. You can create your own background and
choose who you want in each box. It was a very easy programme
to understand straight away.
