Wikis like Wikipedia are not considered credible sources for student assignments because anyone can edit pages without oversight. While students could potentially improve Wikipedia articles through well-crafted assignments, there is also a risk of adding incorrect information. Wikipedia is a popular starting point for general research but should not be cited directly in academic work due to its open editing structure and lack of peer review.
Professional Writing Final Reflection Assignment
This document is a final reflection assignment from an ENC 3250 Professional Writing class taught by Professor Rene Rallo on April 24, 2014. It contains reflections from students Julie Klein, Jody Harvey-Brown, and Craig Smith on what they learned during the class, including how to write an email newsletter using WA3 software, that email newsletters are commonly used in advertising by many companies, and that the skills learned in the class will stay with the students for their entire lives and careers.
IT Era
Wikipedia can provide helpful information but should not be solely relied upon for research assignments according to the student. While Wikipedia is a popular website that is easy to access, it may lack detailed information or sources needed for academic work. As an educator, the student would be hesitant to fully accept Wikipedia as a viable source on its own due to more authoritative websites being available. However, Wikipedia could still aid understanding and offer ideas to consider. The student sees Wikipedia developing into a more prominent internet tool in the future to assist with obtaining information, even if it may not be completely reliable.
The Read Web - Morning
The document discusses using blogs, wikis, and RSS feeds in the classroom to engage students through continuous learning and adaptation. It provides tips for setting up an educational blog, such as using Edublogs.org. Effective blog posts are suggested to cover topics the author cares about and are important, while keeping the reader engaged through writing, images, quotes, and information. Teachers are instructed to share their blog URLs and comment on other teachers' blogs to continue professional development through open discussion.
Prelim exam
Yes, wikis can be considered viable sources for student research and assignments. As an educator, wikis provide a reliable and efficient resource that allows collaboration on research structures and content. Students also find wikis useful tools for assignments due to their helpful role in research. Wikis have become an important internet information source and will likely continue developing into a more prominent online tool as they work to provide accurate information for researchers.
People new page design mock ups
Red Rover UI is a user interface design document. It outlines a proposed design for a new user interface with a focus on simplifying navigation and making key information more prominent. The third draft aims to improve upon earlier versions based on user testing and feedback.
Joint Military Presentation of Tools
The document discusses new technologies being introduced to the military and different reactions to them. It mentions introducing phones in dorms and social media on aircraft carriers. It also lists some problems soldiers face like not knowing information, not remembering, and feeling alone. It then presents solutions like simplifying the web, opt-in text messaging, and an advanced directory to help connect people.

Wv Uexplore
This document proposes a single web-based tool to help students find people with similar interests, join and create student groups, contribute to the community, and help colleges track, assess, advise and support these processes. The tool would integrate the official student directory, student groups/clubs/orgs, and a "digital commons" feed of student and group content. Students would create an account linked to Facebook for identity verification and interest tags. The directory, groups, and involvement data would be accessible on the WVU website and synced with Facebook. This would aim to increase community, group participation, and visibility of student work.
Fye 09
The document discusses the potential for a single web-based tool to help college students with comfort, connection, and contribution. It could help students find people similar to them, create and join groups, and contribute to the college community. A 2008 pilot at one school showed that students were comfortable connecting their Facebook profiles and tagging themselves with interests. It suggests schools should teach students to create positive digital identities by using tags, blogs, and becoming mentors. This could help with student orientation, first-year experience classes, and advising by helping students connect and participate in the community.

The document advocates for open pedagogies that give students agency and allow their work to remain available to others.
Classrooms for the Future -- Pedagogy Matters
This document discusses the need for education reform and more progressive teaching practices. It advocates for student-centered, inquiry-driven, project-based learning that leverages 21st century tools and prepares students for citizenship over the workforce. The author argues that schools should value understanding over standardized tests, collaboration over isolation, and help students develop life-long learning skills like learning, unlearning and relearning. Technology should be integrated ubiquitously to enhance learning rather than act as the primary focus. Teachers should take on mentoring roles rather than solely direct instruction. Overall, it calls for a visionary rethinking of school models to make learning more authentic, integrated and meaningful for students.
SXSW - School 2.0

APCA Las Vegas '09 Tech Keynote
This was a technology keynote given to student affairs professionals by Kevin Prentiss of Swift Kick and Red Rover.
Theme of the speech was a "do more with less" approach. Getting your students connected and successful includes encouraging public blogging by your best role models.
This was part two of a two part speech.
Red Rover
This document proposes a single web-based tool to help college students with comfort, connection, and contribution. It would allow students to find others with similar interests, join groups, and share work with the community. Colleges could track student activity and engagement to identify needs and provide support. An integrated approach using the tool and training could help increase student retention by better facilitating students' transition into college life and involvement in the social and academic community. The proposal outlines how the tool might be used at different stages by students and departments, and provides a timeline for rollout and assessment of the approach.

Dance Floor Theory 2.0
1) The document discusses ways to increase engagement and relationships on a college campus.
2) It notes two morals: that people often do things because others are, and that anything can be fun if enough people engage with it.
3) The goal is to increase average engagement by building cliques, being connectors between groups, running group activities, and using social networks.
Dance Floor Theory 1.0
This document discusses how to increase engagement at dance floors and on college campuses through managing one's state and building relationships with others. It notes that an individual's state determines their outcome and that the average state of a group determines the group's outcome. Therefore, leadership involves taking responsibility for a group's state and outcome by gently influencing individuals in a positive way through matching their state, seeing things from their perspective, and finding common ground. The steps provided are to have fun oneself, introduce oneself to build relationships, make introductions between others, and mix groups up while focusing on relationships and others. Involved and engaged students are more likely to get better grades, graduate, and be satisfied with their experience.
Dance Floor Theory 1.0 and 2.0
This document discusses using state management strategies to increase engagement on college campuses. It asserts that an individual's state determines their outcome, and that the average state of a group determines the group's outcome. It recommends leaders focus on building relationships, matching others' states, and finding common ground to influence states positively. Mixing up individuals and creating "blenders" can gently increase engagement. The goal is to increase the overall average level of campus engagement through creative means like "pattern interrupts." Building a base social group, acting as a "spatula" to others, running blenders, and using social networks are some specific strategies suggested.
Vegas Tech Keynote08
The document discusses how technology can change institutions and education. It suggests tactics like using social media like Facebook and Myspace for student orientation. It also discusses using online education content and sharing best practices to build community between conferences. The document advocates making students the center of education and shifting the focus to identity development. It suggests tracking real-time student interactions and assessments through customizable identity profiles.

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.
