This is the presentation I gave in Damascus at the WSIS Follow-up for the Western Asia region. I recorded audio but it's in MP4 and I'm having trouble converting it to upload on Slideshare.
Wikis social networking
Wikis are websites that allow collaborative knowledge creation through editing tools. They document each change and user contribution through versioning and history tools. Wikis are designed to enable collaborative document writing, joint construction of knowledge, and constant revision across locations. They can be used to create event plans, brainstorms, lists, portfolios, guides, resources, glossaries, manuals, knowledge repositories, and databases. Wikis benefit education by providing simple editing tools that allow immediate collaboration and tracking of ideas through version history. They can be used for course wikis organized by student, topic, or weekly content, as well as group projects, databases, and housing policies and procedures.

Necc08 Spotlight on PLP
A community is a collection of individuals bound together by shared ideas and ideals. It involves people collaborating over time to share ideas, find solutions, and build innovations related to a common interest or problem. For a community to be healthy and evolve, it needs to be designed in a way that allows it to adapt over time through member feedback and involvement in its development. Professional learning communities in schools aim to shift culture from teacher isolation to meaningful collaboration.

Digital literacy includes visual, electronic, and digital forms of expression and communication. It requires a lifelong commitment to remain literate as technology and culture change. Digital literacy provides benefits like higher performance with digital tasks, greater involvement with others, and more opportunities to participate and express opinions. However, there is no single definition of literacy that applies to all people and remains static over time. Constant updating of concepts and skills is needed to stay literate in the evolving information environment.

Institutional Social Networks: A tool for student communication and teaching?...
Evaluation of a project to build and launch an internal social network for informal and formal teaching in higher education.
What Is Social Learning Sandeep Rathod4 Wud2011
Social learning refers to informal learning that occurs outside of formal training settings through communities sharing common interests. It typically involves sharing information through activities like rating, commenting, blogging, and collective authoring. Companies are increasingly recognizing social learning as a major component of employee learning and are looking to enhance these informal knowledge sharing activities.
Some key benefits of social learning strategies include promoting collaboration, breaking down communication barriers, enabling expertise sharing, and enhancing knowledge transfer throughout an organization. New technologies now allow achieving many social learning benefits through online environments. Younger learners expect to utilize technology and social networking in their learning. User experience design must consider how social media supports different learning styles and facilitates socially situated learning.
Digital Connectedness: Taking Ownership of Your Professional Online Presence
Developing pathways to connectedness essentially commences with family and friends, but over time new connections outside of these circles begin to form ever increasing and interlinking circles. These informal and formal networks have the potential to help you unlock new doors to new opportunities. Social media can without doubt provide excellent communication channels and a space to develop your network of connections. Nonetheless as your online presence expands it leaves behind both digital footprints and digital shadows; and this needs to be given due consideration. This keynote will look at the value of developing a professional online presence and why as future graduates you need to take ownership of this.

Artificial Intelligence for XMLDevelopment
In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.
Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
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:

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
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.
