The document outlines a webinar on culturally competent civic engagement. It discusses framing civic engagement projects around public meetings and stakeholder engagement. It presents a framework with four phases: initial investigation, positioning/messaging, outreach, and process design/facilitation. For each phase, it provides cultural generalizations and tips for making civic engagement more culturally competent by adjusting practices for different social groups. It then presents a scenario for participants to discuss applying the questions and tips.
1. Experiential learning involves generating an action theory from one's own experiences and then continually modifying it through a process of action, reflection, and refinement to improve effectiveness.
2. It follows Kurt Lewin's model of a four stage process - taking action based on one's current theory, observing outcomes, reflecting to reformulate the theory, then taking new action based on the revised theory.
3. Learning group skills through experiential learning requires understanding the relevance of the skill, practicing it over and over with a coach, and reflecting on feedback to further develop and automate the skill.

This document outlines a vision for helping students become autonomous, critical thinkers who can overcome difficulties and cooperate with others. It advocates respecting students' individual rhythms, valuing their work, and listening to their concerns while teaching through hands-on learning and using all available resources. The most important goals are for students to imagine, inquire, ask questions, solve problems, communicate, lose fear and shame, understand their environment and emotions, respect others, love themselves, and develop strategies to reach their full potential through a cooperative project-based approach.
- Malcolm Knowles was an influential professor who argued that adults learn best through andragogy, which is learner-centered instruction focused on hands-on learning. In contrast, he argued that children learn best through pedagogy, which is teacher-centered instruction like lectures.
- However, later research has shown that both children and adults actually learn best through experiential, hands-on methods rather than passive lecture-based learning. Knowles' distinction between adult and child learning was based more on the instructional methods of the time rather than how people naturally learn.

SEMESTER PROJECT – PHASE II
Introduction to the Company:
Security Transport Professionals Incorporated (STP), has its home office located in Lexington, Kentucky and in addition has more than 3,000 employees located in each of its branch offices located in Houston, Texas and San Diego, California.
STP is primarily a nationwide freight hauler. Its customer are comprised of major market retailers particularly in the medical and pharmaceutical industry, the federal government, and several state governments. STP operates a fleet of trucks and private cargo planes that it uses to move “goods” belonging to its customers from one destination to another across the continental United States. Its fleet of truck carriers are located in Lexington, Kentucky with it planes located in Louisville, Kentucky.
STP carries and transports highly controlled, narcotics and scheduled prescription drugs, toxic, radioactive, nuclear, and top-secret materials from one facility belonging to its customer to another. The method of transport depends on the type of cargo being hauled. In addition to hauling/forwarding its customers products/goods, STP is required from time to time to store its customer goods for brief periods of time. Two years ago, STP began contracting with a number of subcontractor’s hereafter referred to as either “limited joint partners (LJPs)” or “independent subcontractor alliances (ISAs)” for the purpose of expanding its freight forwarding, storage, and delivery service. Due to the confidential nature of the freight that it transports, STP vets its employees, as well as any subcontractors (LJPs and ISAs) that it engages.
STP’s business objectives and goals include the confidential, safe and secure movement of its customer goods, from the customer/distributor to its client, or from one of its customer’s locations to another of the customer’s locations in a timely and efficient manner using cost effective methods. Alternatively, STP may transfer this responsibility to one of its limited joint partners (LJPs) or independent subcontractor alliances (ISAs), if it is more cost-effective and the income differential is within acceptable limits. There are 3 LJPs with which STP had entered into contracts. LJPs are corporate organizations in the same industry that offer essentially the same services as STP, and who are generally competitors of STP. However, when the job requires resources that exceed those of STP or its competitor, the two will enter into an agreement to jointly undertake the contract together and will together provide the same full range of services, with both entering into the same contract or joint venture with the customer.
Independent subcontractor alliances (ISAs) differ from Limited Joint Partners (LJPs) in that a ISA is not a direct competitor of STP. Rather, the ISA is a company that offers a subset of services to STP, or contracts with STP to provide it with necessary resources to perform the particular job at.
The US Army selected HP Fortify as its application security solution to ensure the security of TAMIS, its web-enabled application used to manage munitions.

This document summarizes the software integration strategy used for an Alaska oil regulatory system. The strategy integrated disparate legacy database applications through a service-oriented architecture with autonomous components. A key part was establishing a "system of record" to store standardized data in one location with services providing CRUD functionality. An example application built was a Non Tank Vessel Contingency Plan system that integrated affiliation, document, and vessel data from independent services and objects. The integration improved data access, quality and decision support capabilities for the oil industry regulations.

This document discusses how public transit agencies can address federal guidelines under MAP-21 to more efficiently invest limited resources. It outlines that MAP-21 created performance-based guidelines to improve safety, infrastructure condition, traffic congestion, system efficiency, environment protection, and project delivery. To comply with MAP-21, agencies must assess their people, processes, and products. This includes acquiring skilled talent, developing safety plans, leveraging technology like asset management systems to conduct condition assessments and prioritize projects, and creating 5-year and 20-year capital plans. Implementing an enterprise asset management system can help agencies meet MAP-21's goals by better managing their assets and supporting required reporting.
This whitepaper focuses on “real-world” systems, that is, systems that interact with the external physical world and must live within the constraints imposed by real-world physics. Good examples include air-traffic control systems, real-time stock trading, command and control (C2) systems, unmanned vehicles, robotic and vetronics, and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems.
More and more these “real-world” systems are integrated using a Data-Centric Publish- Subscribe approach, specifically the programming model defined by the Object Management Group (OMG) Data Distribution Service (DDS) specification.
This whitepaper describes the basic characteristics of real-world systems programming, reasons why DDS is the best standard middleware technology to use to integrate these systems, and a set of “best practices” guidelines that should be applied when using DDS to implement these systems.

Risk Management by Deepak kumar dwivedi
To believe the news media, there are a host of cruel and omnipotent hackers out there who can totally destroy any system they set their minds to, spreading total devastation upon whoever and wherever they wish. The slightest freak of nature - heavy rain, a fire, a date on a calendar - can wipe any system out entirely. This is not the case: the devastation is not total, the destruction is not complete there are countermeasures that can be brought to bear to avoid this disastrous outcome.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
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:

National Preparedness System (NPS) component, TractorFax overview final revised
1. TractorFax Overview: “Incident Commander’s unprecedented difference maker”
TractorFax is: an all-in-one collaborative inventory and resource management tool - actionable information beginning at the local level and in a continuum to state and regional levels should the need escalate.
TractorFax is a web based system to catalog emergency resources and volunteers, combined with a set of workflows to standardize, manage, and track the collaborative requests and responses of Emergency Support Functions (ESFs), within and across jurisdictional boundaries. In this way, TractorFax can enable the collaboration, management, certifications, affiliation, and allocation of the resources of government and non-government organizations (NGO’s) to the requirements of emergency management priorities.
TractorFax allows governments and NGO’s to prepare for and respond to disasters more effectively by ensuring that ALL required resources are available and ONLY needed resources are requested — thereby minimizing the influx of inappropriate donations, called by emergency managers “second disaster”.
With TractorFax local, regional, and federal government can best identify, inventory, access, track, collaborate, and report on the vast resources given to government by private citizens and businesses, while still ensuring ownership and management of the resources remains with the specific support agency responsible for the resource. And incorporate “best practices” based on “Lessons Learned”: turning data into information and making information actionable.
Another key point to be made about our first of its kind technology is that during Research & Development (R&D), our team worked closely with “ground zero” Incident Commanders, local officials, and first responders. And then again with Incident Command’s appointed core team of Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) during the actual NIMS12-step Test & Evaluation (T&E) process.
2. Every expert involved with both R&D and T&E processes agreed today’s real world of advanced technologies seriously challenges, and out dates, the current practices and limitations of FEMA’s 120 resource typing definitions requirements.
Thus, TractorFax is software coded to accommodate not only the FEMA 120 Resource Typing Definitions, but over and above; TractorFax’s built-in resource dictionary accommodates infinite (unlimited) resource typing definitions; a hierarchy system, fully searchable by resource ownership description, key words, all segmented by jurisdictional zip code….Virtual preplanned resource ownership, down to the zip code….public or private, no matter; a resource, is a resource, is a resource.
Hence, Incident Commander’s “Rosetta Stone” day-to-day Incident Management System” beginning at the local level. Despite the best and noble efforts being expanded.
Compliances, aka “Green-Lights”:
1). DHS/FEMA NIMS Department of Homeland Security (DHS) – Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) National Incident Management Systems (NIMS) FINAL pilot evaluation (see above). The purpose of NIMS Support Center is to evaluate products against stringent goals and objectives on behalf of local and state officials, thus aiding local and state level purchasing decision making.
2). Authorized Equipment Lists – 3 InterAgency Board (IAB) approvals for local, state, and regional Grant request.
[04AP-01-CADS] System, Dispatch, Computer Aided/ Description: Computer software system(s) used to track and manage public safety incidents and resources.
[04AP-05-CDSS] Systems and Tools, ICS/ Description: Incident Command System (ICS) software including command/plans and decision-support tools. Also includes NIMS-compliant field incident management materials such as T-Cards and holders, specialized forms, etc.
[04AP-07-INVN] Software, Equipment Tracking and Inventory/ Description: Application software for tracking of tangible equipment, including location and person(s) /organization(s) responsible.
3). FAR (Federal Acquisition Regulations): The purpose of the FAR is to provide "uniform policies and procedures for acquisition." Among its guiding principles is to have an acquisition system that satisfies customer's needs in terms of cost, quality, and timeliness; minimize administrative operating costs; conduct business with integrity, fairness, and openness; and fulfill other public policy objectives. Government personnel may not deviate from the law without proper authorization. The FAR was issued pursuant to the Office of Federal Procurement Policy Act of 1974. Statutory authority to issue and maintain the FAR resides with the Secretary of Defense, the Administrator of General Services, and the Administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, subject to the approval of the Administrator of Federal Procurement Policy.
4). COTS (Commercial-Off-The-Shelf Software) and services. COTS purchases are alternatives to custom developments or one-off government-funded developments. COTS typically requires configuration that is tailored for specific uses and the key characteristic that differentiates COTS from Custom software is that the user configurations are within the defined parameters of the commercial item and not the result of customizations to the commercial item itself. The use of COTS has been mandated across many government and business programs, as such products may offer significant savings in
3. procurement, development, and maintenance. Motivations for using COTS components include hopes for reduction of overall system-development and costs (as components can be bought or licensed instead of being developed from scratch) and reduced long-term maintenance costs.
5). Government off-the-shelf (GOTS) is a term for software Government products that are ready to use. They were created and are owned by the government. Typically GOTS are developed by the technical staff of the government agency for which it is created (i.e. DHS/FEMA work on behalf of local and state agencies’ end users). It is sometimes developed by an external entity (i.e. TractorFax (TFT)), but with funding and specification from the agency (i.e. DHS/FEMA). Because agencies can directly control all aspects of GOTS products, these are generally preferred for government purposes.
GOTS software solutions can normally be shared among federal agencies without additional cost.
List of GOTS Software:
TractorFax (TFT)
Interactive Scenario Builder
SIMDIS
Naval Simulation System (NSS)
To clarify, TractorFax IS NOT another, of many, “ONE OFF” Government-funded developments.
Uniquely TractorFax IS a FULLY DEVELPED (FULL-GROWN), comprehensive, all-in-one Incident Management Systems Tool. In fact, a first of its kind Government-funded development, all- encompassing Incident Command software product, deployment ready!
Allowing Incident Command personnel & authorized end users to seamlessly improve pre-planning’s preparedness initiatives, improving response & recovery times, and simultaneously, in a more confidential manner, addresses the real world’s ever present threat of Agro-terrorism acts head on….
TractorFax supports Unified Command’s transparent core-mission: “For the betterment of the Homeland”!
