This document outlines the graduation project requirements for Peters Township High School beginning with the Class of 2013. The project is designed to support the district's mission of preparing students to be lifelong learners by having them explore careers and post-secondary options. It requires students to create an electronic portfolio showcasing their career exploration activities like job shadows, interviews, and classroom projects related to their career goals. Students must present their portfolio to a panel and "tell their story" of career exploration during their junior year. Completing all components of the graduation project is a requirement for graduation from Peters Township High School.

Course Outcomes state what a student, on successfully completing the course and earning a pass grade and the credit can perform/do/demonstrate with what he/she has learnt in the course. These are also referred as Learning Outcomes or Student Outcomes though NBA uses the term Course Outcomes (COs). Note that the emphasis is on using/applying the knowledge imparted/acquired by a successful student in the course.

Choose a class you teach or one you hope to teach in the future and describe your classroom management plan. Because a classroom management plan refers to the things that a teacher does to organize students’ time, space, and materials so that instruction and student learning can effectively take place, your plan should discuss these factors and demonstrate your ability to create a climate conducive to learning. Your plan should also establish high expectations for student behavior and learning. At a minimum, your plan should do the following:
1. Explain the goal of the plan, including the grade

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

2. Peters Township School District Mission
Mission
The mission of the Peters Township Schools, working in partnership with families and the
community, is to educate individuals to be responsible, lifelong learners who possess the skills,
knowledge, creativity, self-worth, and ethical values necessary to live, learn, lead and flourish in
a rapidly changing, culturally diverse global society.
Vision
Peters Township School District
Learning from the Past,
Listening to the Present,
Leading for the Future
Superintendent’s Vision
PTSD has a systematic approach of working together toward excellence and expecting it of all
student and staff performance.
Peters Township High School Mission for the
Graduation Project
The Mission for the Graduation Project is to support the
District’s mission, vision, and expectations by affording
students the opportunity to meet the State requirements to
demonstrate through research, writing, and the integration of
skills and concepts their ability to apply, analyze, synthesize
and evaluate information and communicate significant
knowledge and understanding while addressing the PA
Academic Standards for Career and Work.
3. How to Successfully Complete the
Peters Township High School Graduation Project:
1. Know its purpose:
Through career exploration, the students will research their interests, talents, and
abilities as they relate to post-secondary options. A variety of required and optional
experiences will lead students toward focusing and discovering desirable and
appropriate post-secondary decisions as they relate to a first job/career. This process
will be documented and stored by the students in electronic portfolios and presented
by the student to a panel of school district professionals for evaluation. The project as
a whole is completed independently by the student. It is not part of any class;
however, components of the project are considered completed if passed in a class.
2. Know the process: MUST SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETE ALL COMPONENTS.
NOTE: This is Career Exploration. You do NOT have to pick a career.

a. Preferably as a freshman, meet with your school counselor to set your career
goals.
b. Ensure that you are scheduled in the IT course your freshman year to create your
electronic portfolio and store your resume.
c. Use the attached checklist or one you’ve created to keep track of your

5. FAQs
4. To whom do I go with questions?
See the chart above for those responsible for assessing/recording individual components
of your project. See your school counselor with questions on the remaining components.
5. When can I or must I “Tell My Story”?
All juniors will “Tell Their Story” during an in-service day toward the end of their junior
year.
6. Can my reflection papers be of a shorter or longer length?
• The minimum length for acceptance is listed above (pgs. 3 & 4).
• Papers may run over by one short paragraph, but you are expected to be direct and
concise. Long papers will not be considered.
7. May I present at a different time?
• Juniors who do not pass their project will have an opportunity to present again as
seniors
• No presentations will be entertained prior to the scheduled in-service day in your
junior year.
8. If I pass all of my required credits and all of the required assessments (e.g., PSSA), but
do not do or pass my graduation project, may I still graduate?
• No. PA School Code and Peters Township School District Policy (#5127) require
passing the graduation project in order to graduate.
• Students who have not met ALL of the graduation requirements may not
participate in commencement exercises.
9. Is there a suggested timeline to keep me focused?
Consider this suggested timeline:
• Freshman Year—create electronic portfolio, set career goals, complete resume,
begin career exploration, attend career fair.
• Sophomore Year—complete a job shadow, successfully complete your career
speech, continue career exploration, complete a classroom project or plan take
the community service course during the first semester of your junior year.
6. • Junior Year—ensure all required documents are in your portfolio and refine their
quality; prepare, practice, and present your “Tell Your Story” presentation.
• Senior Year—complete a college application or job application if moving
directly into the workforce and store the application and the college essay, if one
was required in your portfolio, BEFORE JANUARY 1 of your senior year.
10. Will the project receive a letter grade and affect my gpa?
• The project is Pass/Incomplete/Not Passed.
• Pass/Incomplete/Not Passed will not affect your gpa, but an incomplete (did not
include one or more of the required components) at the end of the junior year will
preclude honor roll status, will keep you on the SHARP list until it is completed,
and will prevent your obtaining a parking pass.
11. If I do not pass my junior year, when can I try again?
In January, seniors with Incompletes or who did not pass may try again.
12. What happens if the technology fails and my electronic portfolio is gone?
The District will back-up the information in your portfolio. It is STRONGLY suggested
that you keep a hard copy of everything you put in your portfolio. This is a good
practice for high school, college, and your future careers.

8. 8 Habits of Highly Effective Students
Successfully Completing the Peters Township Graduation Project
(Move from being dependent ► to independence ► to interdependence.)
1. BE PROACTIVE
• Begin thinking about how you will complete this process
• Do not wait until the last minute and try to cram
• Keep good records and print out hard copies of back-up information
• Schedule appointments well in advance
• KEEP A HARD COPY OF ALL ELECTRONICALLY SAVED DOCUMENTS
2. BEGIN WITH THE END IN MIND
• Ask yourself exactly what you expect your electronic portfolio to look like by the
time you are ready to present
• Envision yourself presenting—will you stand and present? Will you use
technology (e.g., ppt, video, audio, etc.)
• Study the rubrics and expectations to ensure you understand what to submit and
what the expectations are to pass
• Decide if you are just interested in passing or you want your project to be used as
an example of quality work that is shared with upcoming classes
3. PUT FIRST THINGS FIRST
• Review the expectations of the Graduation Project
• Design Your Plan for Successful Completion
• Meet with your counselor to set your career goals
• Create your electronic portfolio through your IT course (keep it updated)
• Create your resume in IT class
• Attend the District’s Career Fair
4. THINK WIN-WIN
• The graduation project is a great way to meet graduation requirements and
showcase your talents, skills, and creativity
• The graduation project is an excellent way to prepare for the college/job
application process and to make a thoughtful post-secondary choice
• Much of what you put into your portfolio can be used later, even in a college
interview
9. 5. SEEK FIRST TO UNDERSTAND THEN TO BE UNDERSTOOD
• Ask questions along the way, so that you are not surprised when it is time to
present and your electronic documents or your presentation is not acceptable
• Read over the rubrics, and seek clarity if you do not understand
• Design quality interview questions, so that you truly understand the pre-requisites,
time commitment, job tasks, and future of the career you are considering
• Attend an afterschool workshop your junior year to practice your “You’re your
Story” presentation
6. SYNERGIZE
• Work with others to plan and brainstorm
• Meet with your counselor
• Talk with your IT teacher and the Career Resource Center (CRC) representative
(Mrs. Pigman)
• Include classroom teachers, parents, peers, siblings, and experts in career fields to
guide your career selection
7. SHARPEN THE SAW
• Using the habits will keep you focused, less anxious, and able to relax
• Keep on schedule and be proactive, so you have time to relax
• Recognize that stepping away from any task to refresh and refocus will support a
quality product or outcome
8. FIND YOUR VOICE
• Be a self-advocate
• Don’t select a career goal because someone thinks you should; do the research
and determine what is right for you
• Create an excellent “Tell Your Story” presentation
