1 - Introduction to Planner
Planner is an introduction to a project planning tool that can quickly create a project schedule from notes, potentially in just seconds. It describes a common scenario where a project manager is asked when a project will be complete and needs to translate their notes on deliverables and tasks into a schedule. Typically this could take hours, days or weeks but Planner aims to reduce that time significantly.
Introduction to Planner for GIFDeck
The document introduces Planner as a tool that can quickly create a project schedule from notes, potentially in just seconds. It asks how long the traditional process of going from notes to a schedule usually takes, which could be hours, days, or weeks. Planner is presented as the fastest and easiest way to make the transition from notes to a scheduled project plan.

WEB APP DEV PROCESS
The web app development process at Quokka Labs involves an initial meeting to understand the product idea, a discovery phase of 2-4 weeks to further explore business goals and requirements, and developing a strategic plan based on research and wireframes. They then use agile methodologies like sprints to transform the designs into a functional website, test it, and launch the product with post-launch support and maintenance.
OneTwo Productions - Final Presentation
PlanIt is an app for streamlining event planning by allowing users to customize invitations and find times that work for all attendees. The presentation recapped testing of MVP versions which showed that tutorial modals were ignored, date/time screens caused confusion, and colors were unclear. It also outlined plans to add features like finding meeting locations and developing partnerships for the full product vision. Testing revealed positives like intuitive colors and easy data input, but also negatives like the app being too slow and requiring a lot of input.
(Sprint 1) besser childress logerquist-swain
The document summarizes the goals and achievements of Sprint 1 of a project to create an employee suggestion system mobile app. The team created login and registration pages, employee and reviewer views, and pulled ideas from a database to display dynamically. They aimed to complete the app framework but did not finish reviewing or commenting on ideas. The team encountered challenges with the Android development workflow, documentation, implementing mockups, and version control.
Career Presentation
The document describes the career of a construction manager, including responsibilities like overseeing projects, coordinating with other teams, and ensuring tasks are completed on schedule. A construction manager typically needs a 4-year degree in engineering or a related field, has experience in construction or engineering, and spends time both in the office and outdoors at building sites managing various aspects of construction projects. The job outlook is expected to grow at the average rate as the construction industry expands and building projects increase.

Embrace the change
This document discusses adopting an agile approach like Scrum for software development. It notes common objections to change but argues that agile practices like Scrum can provide benefits over traditional approaches. Scrum utilizes self-organizing cross-functional teams, a Scrum Master, and a Product Owner to deliver working software in short iterations. The document outlines Scrum roles and ceremonies and recommends starting with a pilot to introduce agile practices while acknowledging organizational culture change takes time. Resources for learning more about Scrum and agile methods are provided.

It describes tools for information management like scanner apps and RSS feeds, as well as tools for streamlined communication like screen capture and mass texting apps. Task management apps are also covered, such as those for tracking individual and team tasks, setting reminders, and getting unstuck creatively. The overall message is that these technologies can help repair productivity systems and reduce waste and clutter.
Beat the Beach
This document describes an obstacle run event called "Beat the Beach" that takes place along beaches and includes obstacles. The 5km run has waves of participants who can party at a lounge after each wave and at a beach party after the last wave. Events typically have 2,000-5,000 participants running, flying, diving and sliding over obstacles. The event is organized by a team that also organizes other events and aims to expand to multiple cities in future years.
global warming
Global warming is the observed century-scale rise in the average temperature of Earth's climate system.[2] Since 1971, 90% of the increased energy has been stored in the oceans, mostly in the 0 to 700m region.[3] Despite the oceans' dominant role in energy storage, the term "global warming" is also used to refer to increases in average temperature of the air and sea at Earth's surface.[4] Since the early 20th century, the global air and sea surface temperature has increased about 0.8 °C (1.4 °F), with about two-thirds of the increase occurring since 1980.[5] Each of the last three decades has been successively warmer at the Earth's surface than any preceding decade since 1850.

Missing School Matters
1) Student absenteeism is a major concern in U.S. schools, with approximately 10% of students missing 10% or more of school days each year.
2) Missing just 10% of the school year can lead to academic trouble and prevent students from graduating. In Michigan, absenteeism rates are as high as 29% for black students.
3) Students who are frequently absent, even just a couple days a month, miss opportunities to learn key skills and are at risk for poor academic performance, low self-esteem, depression, and dropping out of high school.
SOLID Software Principles with C#
This document discusses the SOLID principles of object-oriented design: Single Responsibility Principle, Open Closed Principle, Liskov Substitution Principle, Interface Segregation Principle, and Dependency Inversion Principle. It explains that SOLID is a collection of best practices that can be applied to design to achieve loose coupling and high maintainability. Each principle is then defined in one sentence and an example demo is provided to illustrate applying that principle.
Teaching English
This session provides teachers with guidance on teaching English pronunciation. It discusses what aspects of pronunciation to teach, such as vowels, consonants, stress, and intonation. Techniques for teaching pronunciation are presented, including listening discrimination, description/analysis of sounds, controlled practice like repetition, and communicative practice like role plays. Principles for effective pronunciation teaching emphasize perception before production, integrating it with other skills, and making it student-centered. Assessment involves identifying learner needs, ongoing feedback, and self/peer monitoring. The key is giving learners plenty of practice in a relaxed environment.

How to be proud when you are done
This document discusses the importance of having a shared Definition of Done (DoD) between all parties involved in a project. It explains that without a DoD, different stakeholders can have conflicting understandings of what constitutes "done" work, leading to broken expectations. The document recommends introducing a DoD as early as possible in a project. It should be created collaboratively with input from customers, teams, and management. Automating checks against the DoD helps ensure work is truly done before moving forward. Continuous inspection and adaptation of the DoD also helps address problems over time. Having a DoD establishes a common vocabulary and allows the team to work together effectively to meet goals.

Having a DoD establishes a common vocabulary and allows the team to work together effectively to meet goals.
How to be proud when you are done
Although all of us speak the same language, each of us uses different meaning of words "soon”, "fine” and "done”. That’s why for one developer "I’m done” means that just a moment ago the part of the code with implemented functionality has been successfully executed, while for another developer it means that code has been committed to repository but without checking if build is green or not on continuous integration server. At the same time "done" of developer-perfectionist means totally refactored and optimized code. And only for "black swan”-developer phrase "I'm done“ means that all tests were passed, new functionality was documented on wiki and a new feature was verified by customer on the demo server.
So if you want to decrease a risk of misunderstanding inside a team or between team and customer you should make agreement about common vision of “definition of done“ and then start using it on a daily basis. In order to prevent losing your time and stepping on the hidden rake during discussion of your done criteria we will share our knowledge about creating compact and most effective “definition of done“. We will talk about lifecycle of this document and about approaches that help you to add important items to it. We will discuss doneness on different levels (preplanning, user story and task development, sprint). And of course we won’t forget to tell you how to create “Definition of Done“ which will satisfy not only your team but your customer as well.

The Canadian Museum of History upgraded their NAV and SharePoint systems without major issues by carefully planning and testing the project. They designed a new technical infrastructure, trained users, and conducted multiple cycles of user acceptance testing and remediation over several months. While there were inevitable bugs found during testing, taking the time for thorough preparation and testing helped ensure the upgrades went live smoothly without significant problems.
Asocialwaypr4
The document describes the development of the Cloud Teams project management software. It outlines how the creators realized existing tools lacked simplicity and proper processes. They defined a basic 5-phase project management process from Wikipedia and aimed to build a software implementing just that. Cloud Teams was created using this "process-to-software" approach. It integrated the phases like initiation, planning, execution, monitoring and completion into features like adding projects, milestones, tasks lists, messaging, files and time-tracking. This allowed for simple yet effective project management. The software addressed unmet needs and became popular due to its focus on usability, relevance and enabling the core project processes.
What is Project Management (IT, PMP, Digital Agency)
The document discusses the definition and purpose of projects and project management. It defines a project as a temporary endeavor with a distinct beginning and end that creates a unique product, service, or result. The key stages of a project include initiation, planning, execution, and closure. The role of a project manager is described as achieving the project goal through communication, stakeholder management, requirements identification, decision making, and balancing competing demands like budget, timeline, and quality. It is argued that without proper project management, a project risks going over budget, failing to meet stakeholder needs, and taking longer than expected to complete.

This document outlines the "One Man" development process model for managing projects as a solo developer. It describes common problems with earlier approaches, such as producing low-quality codebases and fear of changing code. The presented model focuses on designing software, writing tests, documenting code, and releasing in small versions to improve code quality and allow for stable releases. Key techniques include breaking work into features and versions, writing tests and documentation, using tools like source control and issue tracking, and following a workflow of coding, testing, refactoring and releasing features.
Software Carpentry for the Geophysical Sciences
This document summarizes a presentation given by Aron Ahmadia at the ESIP Winter Meeting in January 2014 on Software Carpentry for the Geophysical Sciences. The presentation discussed how most scientists do not have strong computational skills and rely on outdated tools. It introduced Software Carpentry, which teaches practical computational skills like the Unix shell, version control with Git, and programming in Python and R. These skills can help scientists more effectively manage, share, and validate their work. The presentation encouraged scientists to get involved by attending or hosting Software Carpentry workshops, and contributing teaching materials relevant to earth sciences.

Agile Methodologies And Extreme Programming
The document discusses Agile development and Extreme Programming (XP). It provides an overview of 12 key practices of XP, including planning games, small releases, test-driven development, pair programming, collective ownership, continuous integration and 40-hour work weeks. It also discusses how XP aims to solve software engineering problems through intensive teamwork, handling changes and staff turnover, and involving customers.
Agile Methodologies And Extreme Programming - Svetlin Nakov
1. Agile development and Extreme Programming (XP) are methodologies that focus on iterative development, collaboration, and adaptability.
2. XP consists of 12 key practices including simple design, test-driven development, pair programming, and small releases. It aims to improve quality, reduce risks, and adapt to changing requirements.
3. While XP works well for some projects and teams, its practices may not be suitable or flexible enough for all situations. Developers should understand the principles behind XP and tailor practices as needed for their specific projects.

This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!

Why Psychological Safety Matters for Software Teams - ACE 2024 - Ben Linders.pdf
Psychological safety in teams is important; team members must feel safe and able to communicate and collaborate effectively to deliver value. It’s also necessary to build long-lasting teams since things will happen and relationships will be strained.
But, how safe is a team? How can we determine if there are any factors that make the team unsafe or have an impact on the team’s culture?
In this mini-workshop, we’ll play games for psychological safety and team culture utilizing a deck of coaching cards, The Psychological Safety Cards. We will learn how to use gamification to gain a better understanding of what’s going on in teams. Individuals share what they have learned from working in teams, what has impacted the team’s safety and culture, and what has led to positive change.
Different game formats will be played in groups in parallel. Examples are an ice-breaker to get people talking about psychological safety, a constellation where people take positions about aspects of psychological safety in their team or organization, and collaborative card games where people work together to create an environment that fosters psychological safety.

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real life
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.
