Folksonomy Presentation
Folksonomy refers to a system of classification created by users to tag and organize online content. It emerged in the early 2000s as sites like Delicious allowed users to tag websites and resources with keywords. The term was coined by Thomas Vander Wal to describe this social or "folk" taxonomy. While tagging provides advantages like easier browsing and self-expression, it also presents disadvantages like potential miscommunication, lack of control over one's tags, and privacy issues.

Types of education
This document discusses three main types of education: informal, formal, and non-formal. Informal education involves lifelong learning from daily experiences and exposure to one's environment. Formal education takes place in institutions with a graded curriculum, leads to certificates or degrees, and is uniform and subject-oriented. Non-formal education is flexible, learner-centered, uses participatory teaching methods, and can occur in locations like libraries through programs like open university courses. It aims to increase knowledge and skills outside of traditional school systems.
Forms of education technology
This document discusses different forms of educational technology including teaching technology, instructional technology, and behavioral technology. Teaching technology applies philosophical, sociological, and scientific knowledge to teaching to achieve learning objectives. It involves planning, organizing, leading, and controlling teaching. Instructional technology applies psychological, sociological, and scientific principles of instruction to achieve learning objectives based on psychological experiments. It involves breaking content into elements, arranging elements logically, and providing reinforcement. Behavioral technology applies principles of behaviorism to modify and shape behaviors through positive reinforcement or extinction.
Characteristics and basic differences between formal and nonformal
Nonformal education programs in the Philippines provide alternative pathways to education for out-of-school youth and adults. They include the Nonformal Education Accreditation and Equivalency System which assesses literacy levels and issues certificates equivalent to elementary and secondary school levels. The Bureau of Nonformal Education oversees various programs including the Army Literacy Patrol System which uses soldiers as literacy facilitators, and Community Learning and Resource Centers that provide basic education in remote areas. Nonformal education aims to expand educational access through flexible, localized programs concentrated on practical, lifelong learning outside of the formal school system.
Types of educational technology
This document discusses three approaches to educational technology:
1) Hardware approach (Educational Technology I) which focuses on machines and equipment like audiovisual aids and computers.
2) Software approach (Educational Technology II) which is based on theories of learning and uses instructional procedures and aids like pictures, maps, and programmed learning packages.
3) System approach (Educational Technology III) which takes a systematic view of the entire educational process and the roles of people, machines, and media within an educational system.

It questions whether a national project or consortium could be formed to pursue common goals and convince funders of virtual worlds' value, given current budget constraints. It proposes regularly meeting virtually and physically in early 2011, and establishes governance and an identity.
Spt&G
The document discusses different online concepts including Spimes, which are objects with identifiers that can be tracked through space and time on the internet. It also mentions Prims, which are 3D objects and structures in virtual worlds like Second Life. Tweets refer to posts on the social media platform Twitter, and Gots is a shorthand for the "Google of things", which likely refers to connecting physical objects to the internet.
Reader
This document discusses various forms of media that allow for both content creation and consumption, including books, magazines, newspapers, social networking sites, blogging, podcasting, music, digital video/art, gaming, virtual worlds, mobile devices, and web 2.0 applications. Many of these new media platforms enable what is known as a "writer/reader mashup" by blurring the line between content producers and consumers.
Tda Web2.0
This document discusses various Web 2.0 technologies and how they relate to distributed learning and education, including blogs, social networks, mashups, media sharing sites like Flickr, wikis, RSS feeds, and virtual worlds. It also references several related websites and asks what the most effective learning network is.
Virtual
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like anxiety and depression.
Coding101 Second Life
Coding in Second Life allows users to program interactions and behaviors in the virtual world. Events are triggers that can be used to make things happen or change states in response to user actions or changes. The default state in Second Life is open, but states can be set to closed through coding events.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

Wound healing PPT
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
