Handout for my Teaching Outside the "Box" invited presentation for the professional development event "going beyond google" at Monroe Community College by the division of science, health, and business on January 21, 2010.
http://prezi.com/cjmoerciiegp/
Step out of the CMS box with me for a presentation on how freely available web2.0 tools such as twitter are used in my online course and could be used to enhance instruction in general. Tools will be demonstrated, uses will be discussed, and examples shown.
Online social networking, social computing, folksonomy/ social/ collaborative tagging, data mashups, ubiquitous broadband, wireless, hand-held and mobile computing, mobile broadband, and the cultural shift from passive consumers of content to engaged user-generators of content, have brought about a grassroots revolution: we have experienced a global democratization of access to tools, information, experts, content, professional development, and education as evinced by the open courseware and open source software initiatives that have changed how education is delivered, conducted, and defined.
It is important for those of us in the field of online education, as responsible netizens and educators in this moment, to participate, to evaluate, to document, and to expose our students to and engage them in this process. Effective online pedagogical/andragogical practices require that we use the online medium to achieve specific learning objectives and leverage the options and limitations of the online teaching and learning environment to make teaching and learning better, faster, safer, easier, and cheaper. It is not about immigrants vs. natives; it is about enhancing instruction with appropriate technologies that promote student engagement, interaction, and learning.
I incorporated these various web2.0 tools into the course for various reasons, but primarily to open the course boundaries beyond the CMS box to provide students with authentic social learning experiences. I also wanted student access to content they created and contributed to the class to persist beyond the end of the term. I will share with participants the lessons learned as I experimented with ways to enhance online instruction. Student survey results and comments will be presented.
Presentation for a professional development workshop for teachers. The goal is to get the teachers excited about integrating technology into their curriculum and classroom operations.
This is the companion handout for the Twitterpated presentation that will highlight and demonstrate ways in which freely available technologies like Twitter were used in a summer online course and can be used to enhance instruction. Tools will be demonstrated, uses will be discussed, and examples will be shown. Participants will be invited to join and explore selected tools.

'SCRUM is an agile project management framework, not a methodology.'
This might actually be one of the first things you hear once you intend to dabble with SCRUM. Yet what it exactly means might be elusive, as it can be hard to find practical information and examples of how to implement it in your organization.
In this talk I have shared how we implemented SCRUM in our organization and what we have experienced during this process. This way I wanted to show a practical example of how it may be done and what the benefits were to our team.

La Génération de Récupération Augmentée (RAG) permet la réponse à des questions d’utilisateur sur un domaine métier à l’aide de grands modèles de langage. Cette technique fonctionne correctement lorsque la documentation est simple mais trouve des limitations dès que les sources sont complexes. Au travers d’un projet que nous avons réalisé, nous vous présenterons l’approche GraphRAG, une nouvelle approche qui utilise une base Neo4j générée pour améliorer la compréhension des documents et la synthèse d’informations. Cette méthode surpasse l’approche RAG en fournissant des réponses plus holistiques et précises.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan 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.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
