Spatialization Parameter Estimation in MDCT Domain for Stereo AudioCSCJournals
For representing multi-channel audio at low bit rate parametric coding techniques are used in many audio coding standards. An MDCT domain parametric stereo coding algorithm which represents the stereo channels as the linear combination of the ‘sum’ channel derived from the stereo channels and a reverberated channel generated from the ‘sum ’channel has been reported in literature. This model is inefficient in capturing the stereo image since only four parameters per sub-band is used as spatialization parameters. In this work we improve this MDCT domain parametric coder with an augmented parameter extraction scheme using an additional reverberated channel. We further modify the scheme by using orthogonalized de-correlated channels for analysis and synthesis of parametric stereo. A synthesis scheme with perceptually scaled parameter set is also introduced. Finally we present, subjective evaluation of the different parametric stereo schemes using MUSHRA test and the increased the perceptual audio quality of the synthesized signals are evident from these test results.
Presentation to Boston Public Schools Principals & Headmasters at the 2012 School Leader Institute on selecting technology tools to support diverse learning needs of students.

To refresh our courses one first needs to pause and take stock
Our digital ecologies are changing because the way we are wanting to teach and examine is changing. Moving forward, we see L&T using new and more engaging forms of technology, designed to help our students not just learn disciplinary skills, but to find new ways of engaging with their peers. Improvement is a deliberate act that involves planning and execution. We need to find the new tools and techniques to help us with our teaching. We will look at some possible affordances you can enjoy when you are ready to pause and take stock.
Frog 13 - Microsoft - Innovative teaching and learning with BYODFrogEducation
Education continues to be the bell weather for innovation and opportunity to do things differently with technology. Consumerisation is driving change and consequently there is a demand for new ways of working, from BYOD to Flipped Classroom to MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses).
Amongst this opportunity we need to ensure that technology is indeed going to serve teaching and learning appropriately; Teachers need to be trained on how to apply these innovations in and outside the classroom.
In this session, we will share our observations on what it means to introduce BYOD to your school, the challenges, the opportunities and how to bring this all together in a well formed teaching and learning package, where you are using Microsoft technologies and services (such as Windows 8 and Office 365).
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.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

4. DISTRICT TECHNOLOGY PLAN 2011
PLANNING PROCESS:
Sessions for all SD57 staff were held in the Spring of
2011
Outlined concepts for how technology can play a role to
enhance student learning.
Feedback was invited from all employees, for the
purpose of setting technology-related
goals, priorities, and timelines.
Feedback from staff was reviewed
A document was developed summarizing some of the
main themes and identified next steps & goals
5.
6. DISTRICT TECHNOLOGY GOALS 2011
1. Wireless Infrastructure at all schools
As of early 2012, all schools in SD57 now have wireless
capability for both district-owned and privately-owned
staff and student devices.
Prior to 2012, only 5 SD57 schools had this capability
(which was limited to small areas within the schools)
2. Web-based Applications
Development of District Learning Commons
E- Resources Portal
3. Update of Practices and Policies
Policy 6179: ACCEPTABLE USE OF NETWORKS have been
updated to accommodate the use/inclusion of privatelyowned wireless devices, as well as Policy 5131, Student Code
of Conduct.
7. 4. Upgrading of Internet Connections
43/44 schools/sites in SD57 have been
upgraded and by Christmas ALL 44 will be
upgraded.
During the 2012/13 school year, 21 of 22 sites were
upgraded.
Previous to 2012, the first 22 sites took
approximately 8 years to be upgraded
5. Technology Learning Team Grants
Inquiry Examples:
How do we assess the success of a Blended Learning
Environment model?
Will the integration of technology and an inquiry approach
to learning enhance students’ digital literacy skills?
9. Preparing Students to Thrive in a
Digital World
• Use phones for
organizers, planning, calculating, mapping, commun
icating, taking pictures of homework assignments or
experiments
• Creative tools for presentations (i.e PPT, Prezi)
• Use Moodle for collaborative work
• Effective tools for project-based learning
• Efficiently find information as needed
• Use voice recognition tools
• Develop a sense of independence and confidence
10. Smart Use of Technology
• We’re moving from lab structure to mobile
technology: i.e. tablets, laptops, e-readers,
Smart phones,
• Bring Your Own Device
11. • Encourage and support use of interactive white boards
(i.e. SMARTBoards)
• Providing teacher release time to assist teachers
• Professional development using existing
technology
12. Develop the Competencies Needed to
use Current and Emerging Technologies
• Classroom blogs
• Website use
• Documenting learning in a variety of forms:
– Video talking to novel element and video shared with
classmates and teachers
– Audio recording of students reading that can be used to
assess their reading and be utilized in reporting
(i.e. Evernote).
– Print: working group collaboration (Moodle) and Google
docs (with pseudo names and schools)
– Teaching students how to be responsible with personal
information on the internet.
– Draft of Digital Literacy Standards (from Ministry)
14. Document Sharing/Collaboration
FOIPOP/FIPPA
• Most web based applications are US Based Applications
(i.e. Google docs, Dropbox, Skydrive)
• Patriot Act means personal information is accessible for
US government purposes
• School Act requires Boards of Education to protect
personal information
• FOIPOP Act stipulates no US based cloud saving of
personal information
• FOIPOP has strict expectations - re: permissions
15. • Locally developed vs. externally hosted cloud services
• Flashy educator resources are Application Dependent – i.e.
made for Apple, Android, or Windows products
• Personal preference creates frustration for students and staff
• Influences the platform issue: single, dual, multiple
• Highly used e-resources are not Canadian. This means
workarounds re: access. We have to create “pseudo names,
pseudo schools” even though we have purchased licences.
i.e. Mathletics, Raz Kids, Accelerated Reader
16. • Haves and Have Nots
• People dependent
• Pockets of excellence
• Different levels of teacher competency/comfort level
re: email, word processing, spread sheets, white boards
• Some teachers have huge collaboration groups –
personalized learning can be accessed in classes by
students: i.e. communication, document sharing,
calendar sharing, virtual tours of ancient civilizations,
world wide student collaboration, Moodle sites,
flipped classrooms.
• Recognize that students will often know more about
the use of tech tools than most adults
17. Information Technology Infrastructure
• Ensuring the security and Data Integrity of District
Systems
– Protecting our data and systems from unauthorized access
and other common threats such as viruses/denial of service
attacks etc.
– Developing and Maintaining a Comprehensive Disaster
Recovery Program
– Work with PLNet to ensure the Provincial Network (upstream
from SD57) does not bottleneck
19. Empowering the Learning Process
Through Technology
Use of E-Resources (District Learning Commons)
• Virtual space
• Web casts /webinars (Face to face sessions)
Curriculum and Instruction: each technology
learning team grant has a connected staff person
• ensures teacher has support with learning
• Informs Curriculum and Instruction of Pro.D needs
Projects: i.e. Clic project
• Video and audio uploads of individual students learning, put into a format
which facilitates conversations with parents about student learning
E-reader Inquiries – Kindle, Kobo
• Will e-readers increase student engagement?
(survey = yes)
• Cost saving – purchase (buy 1 and put on 6 devices)
• Many free downloads (Kobo)
20. Supporting Use of Collaboration Tools
• Enable more self directed learning where
students can construct their own understanding
•
•
•
•
Flip classroom opportunities
Learning via technology
Project based learning (teacher coach)
Inquiry questions developed by students
• Develop the processes of integrating technology
into the learning environment
• FOIPOP compliance and legal cloud storage
• Finding an effective way that will work!!!
21. Coaches and Facilitators
• Teachers as coaches rather than purveyors of
all knowledge:
• Help kids to learn how to learn
• Help kids to make meaning of the information acquired
• Teachers do not need to be experts on devices as many
students are
• Teacher role is keeping kids safe, extracting
information, developing digital citizenship
22. Professional Development
• Multiple webinars and workshops
• Opportunities to develop digital literacy skills and a
virtual presence
• Technology is embedded in Pro.D.
(i.e. Assessment Academy Network)
• Support from experts for projects, schools and
families of schools (i.e. .56 tech support teachers )
25. We Know the Why
and We’re at the HOW
• How to transition to using primarily web-based device
independent tech tools
• Meeting requirements as specified by Legal Authorities
• Increasing knowledge around cyber-safety,
ethical/responsible use
• Exploring Online/Hybrid Learning to maximize Learning
opportunities for students in small or rural schools
• Increasing staff capacity and comfort levels
• Allowing students to be the experts on tech-based tools
• Developing a collective District Vision and continuous
Learning Plans (Infrastructure is ready and so are we!!!)
• ….. Stay tuned
