A 15-20 minute presentation for PGCLTHE students (which I am on a student on, and will be teaching next year) on Twitter, which I have been using since February 2009, and some ideas for using it in the classroom.
This presentation shares the perspectives of three education faculty who incorporated Twitter into their traditional, blended, and online classes as a way to expand and extend the class “conversation” beyond the classroom. Courses involved were at both the undergraduate and graduate level in subjects ranging from science education to the community college. Our fourth presenter is a student teacher who will share her experiences with Twitter assignments as well as how she envisions using Twitter with elementary students in her future classroom.
This presentation was created by Josh Downing with notes collected by Josh and classmate Arima for assignment. The assignment objective was to explore technology in the classroom.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
