Shall we start with the
good news
or
the bad news about
wikis?
Good Bad
News News

The Good news:
If you can use a
word processor
(eg. Word)…

YOU CAN WIKI!

The Bad news:
“Wiki-ing” can be

HIGHLY ADDICTIVE!

Why s
are great!
They are easy to:
set up, use
update and monitor

Why s
are great!
They are cross
platform:
[Can be used on PCs or Macs]

Why s
are great!
They run on older
computers

Why s
are great!
They can run with a
slower Internet
connection

Why s
are great!
They are available
from home and
school

Why s
are great!
They facilitate
collaboration

So, what is a
?
This video, by the folks at Commoncraft,
explains the theory behind a wiki “in Plain
English” without using ANY technology!

s are…
A type of web site that allows users to easily
add,
remove,
and otherwise edit and change
some available content

This ease of interaction and operation
makes a wiki an effective tool for
collaborative authoring.

Two important
buttons!
When using a wiki there are two
important buttons to understand and
use.
They are:
and

Types of s
Space types:
• Public:
Can be viewed by anyone.
Also can be edited by anyone.
• Protected:
Can be viewed by anyone
Only can be edited by members of the space.
• Private:
Can only be viewed or edited by members of
the space.

Keeping s safe
• Keep wiki ‘protected’ so only members
can edit
• Use students first names/initials only on
the wiki and for user names
• Track users’ comments in discussion tabs
• Parents can be invited to join
• Emails not necessary to sign up - email wikispaces with
details instead

• Use history tab to undo any ‘changes’
• School rules apply - have a wiki
agreement or policy with students

Top Tips
Small edits
Save regularly
Use the history
Refresh page before writing
Make use of the discussion tab

There are numerous places to get
and start a wiki for free.

We will be using Wikispaces
who provide advertising-free wikis
to teachers and educators.

Using Internet to Learn

Anica Petkoska

This is the WIKi of the MacNed project. Students take part in a collaborative and experimental project in which students from the Netherlands and Macedonia research Media use in international teams. We meet, research and share. We build this WIKI together. We combine different subjects: English, Social studies, ICT skills. And we are interested in the use of different, up-to-date ICT tools in a learning environment. The students started the project on January 31, 2008

Rachel Evans Boyd

An introduction to what every educator should know about copyright, staying legal and working within the law online (from a New Zealand perspective). With the advent of ICT and eLearning, teaching has changed. Teachers are working in an ever-increasing digital world. Digital technologies have revolutionised how creative works are made, distributed and used. But what about copyright? Is everything on the Internet fair game? Can I use that google image in my digital story?? If you (or your students) use or create content online this workshop is for you. Learn how to find audio, images and other digital resources that offer completely legal alternatives for digital publishing and ways you can protect digital content you make using creative commons.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI support

Alan Dix

Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024 https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/ As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024

Tobias Schneck

As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other? Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*

Frank van Harmelen

Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”. All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management. The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM). Speakers: Bob Boule Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle. Gopinath Rebala Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
