LECTURE 2
Introduction
Learning to communicate appropriately and effectively in a variety of settings and in a variety of formats is an important skill in both academic and professional environments. In an online learning environment, learning to communicate effectively through writing is particularly important because it is, by far, how the majority of communication occurs. Review the learning objectives for this module within the course syllabus and use the following lecture, which is about various forms of written communication used in the online graduate setting, to accomplish them.
Paraphrasing
Paraphrasing the ideas of others is a requirement in academic writing and graduate study. Paraphrasing is using your own words to restate ideas or information from a source material. Paraphrasing will help you grasp the full meaning of the source material and allow you to appropriately reference the source material to support your own ideas and academic writing. Paraphrased material is usually shorter and more concise than the original information. The following are some common guidelines taken from the Purdue Online Writing Lab (2012), which may assist you with learning to paraphrase information gathered from reading materials for use in completing your coursework.
Reread the original passage until you understand its full meaning.
Set the original passage aside and, on a note card, write what you think the passage means in your own words (paraphrase).
Jot down a few words below your paraphrase to remind you later of how you plan to use the information. At the top of the note card, write a key word or phrase to indicate the subject of your paraphrase.
Compare your paraphrase with the original to make sure that your version accurately expresses all the essential information.
Use quotation marks to identify any unique term or phrase you copied exactly from the original source.
Record the source (including the page) on your note card so that you can cite it easily if you decide to incorporate the material into a paper or discussion question response.
The following is an example of paraphrasing (Purdue OWL, 2012), which i.
Sample Outline FormatNote The outline you submit should .docxanhlodge
Sample Outline Format
Note: The outline you submit should be one MS Word document inclusive of the outline, references page and description of visuals.
Speech Title: A creative title will add to audience interest.
General Purpose: Is it to inform? To persuade? To entertain? To mark a special occasion?
Specific Purpose: A specific statement of what you expect to accomplish with your speech - your desired outcome.
Introduction: Grabs the attention of the audience, presents a topic of the speech and tells the audience the major points of your speech.
A. Attention Getter: grab the attention of the audience- ideas include:
Use a famous quotation; tell a story, real or hypothetical; pose questions, rhetorical or directed; make a startling statement; use suspense; make a personal reference; use humor
B. Thesis Statement: The thesis is a single sentence that summarizes your message. Every other part of your speech should support your thesis statement.
Credibility: Somewhere early in the presentation, typically after the thesis statement, but before the preview statement, it will be important to establish credibility as a speaker.
Credibility can be established through reference to your own expertise on the topic and/or through making verbal reference to the sources of your support. This persuades the audience that you are "trustworthy" enough to speak about the subject, which is critical to your success.
You should continue to make references to your credibility throughout the speech to maintain that perception, but it is most important near the start. Body: Contains the main points of your speech and is where you focus on the details; here your intent is to provide all the necessary evidence to explain and support your points.
Preview Statement: Here you preview your main points, which should be stated using parallel language.
Tie to the audience: Somewhere early in the presentation, typically after the preview statement, but before the first main point, it will be important to tie the topic to the audience. Why should they be interested in what you have to say? Why is it important to them?
You should continue to tie the material to your audience throughout the presentation to maintain the importance of the material, but it is most important near the start.
A. Main Point #1: You should have between 2 and 5 main points in the body of your speech, which will be supported by the subordinate points below.
1. The bulk of your speech will be support.
a. Support should be outlined following the conventions of outlining
b. Your outline should be of sufficient detail
2. The number of support points and sub-points in your outline will vary.
a. Be sure to read the text about the different types of outlines.
b. It is important that you use subordination to effectively demonstrate relationships between ideas.
B. Main Point #2
Supporting materials illustrate the main points by clarifying, elaborating and verifying.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

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.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.
