We have presented an approach and shared experiences in using Facebook for teaching and learning. It has been shown that many students quickly respond to teachers’ posts and they also shared useful information. We have also evaluated and analyzed the result of the survey. It was found out that most people agree that the advantages are convenience, easy to use, and instance interaction while most people view the only disadvantages is too open to public

JMeter webinar - integration with InfluxDB and GrafanaRTTS
Watch this recorded webinar about real-time monitoring of application performance. See how to integrate Apache JMeter, the open-source leader in performance testing, with InfluxDB, the open-source time-series database, and Grafana, the open-source analytics and visualization application.
In this webinar, we will review the benefits of leveraging InfluxDB and Grafana when executing load tests and demonstrate how these tools are used to visualize performance metrics.
Length: 30 minutes
Session Overview
-------------------------------------------
During this webinar, we will cover the following topics while demonstrating the integrations of JMeter, InfluxDB and Grafana:
- What out-of-the-box solutions are available for real-time monitoring JMeter tests?
- What are the benefits of integrating InfluxDB and Grafana into the load testing stack?

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.

Generating a custom Ruby SDK for your web service or Rails API using Smithyg2nightmarescribd
Have you ever wanted a Ruby client API to communicate with your web service? Smithy is a protocol-agnostic language for defining services and SDKs. Smithy Ruby is an implementation of Smithy that generates a Ruby SDK using a Smithy model. In this talk, we will explore Smithy and Smithy Ruby to learn how to generate custom feature-rich SDKs that can communicate with any web service, such as a Rails JSON API.
Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

3. Educating the Net Generation
• "The Net Gen has been exposed to multiple media types
from a young age. Prensky estimates that by the time
individuals reach age 21, they will have spent twice as many
hours playing video games as reading (10,000 versus
5,000)" [1]
• "They get bored if not challenged properly, but when
challenged, they excel in creative and innovative ways. They
learn by doing, not by reading the instruction manual or
listening to lectures. These are the learners that faculty must
reach" [1]
Oct 30, 2011 3
4. The Net Generation as College Students [1]
• "Ability to read visual images—they are intuitive visual
communicators"
• "Visual-spatial skills—perhaps because of their expertise
with games they can integrate the virtual and physical"
• "Inductive discovery—they learn better through discovery
than by being told"
• "Attentional deployment—they are able to shift their
attention rapidly from one task to another, and may choose
not to pay attention to things that don’t interest them"
• "Fast response time—they are able to respond quickly and
expect rapid responses in return 18"
Oct 30, 2011 4
5. Understanding the Net Generation [1]
• "Digitally Literate
o Students are more likely to use the Internet for research
than the library (73 percent)"
• "Connected
o They are constantly connected and always on"
• "Immediate
o They have fast response times, whether playing a game
or responding to an IM. In fact, more value may be placed
on speed than on accuracy"
• "Experimental
o Most Net Gen learners prefer to learn by doing rather by
being told what to do"
Oct 30, 2011 5
6. Understanding the Net Generation [1]
• "Social
o The Net Gen has developed a mechanism of
inclusiveness that does not necessarily involve personally
knowing someone admitted to their group
o Being a friend of a friend is acceptable"
• "Teams
o The Net Gen often prefers to learn and work in teams.
o A peer-to-peer approach is common, as well, where
students help each other
o Net Geners find peers more credible than teachers when
it comes to determining what is worth paying attention to"
Oct 30, 2011 6
7. The Net Generation and the Technology in Learning [1]
• "The Net Gen views the Internet as an access tool—
a medium for distribution of resources rather than a resource
with limitations"
• "Net Geners use technology extensively to network and
socialize. In their personal lives, buddy lists, virtual
communities, and social networks such as Flickr or Orkut
are heavily used"
• "They thrive on immediate gratification. The expectation of
immediacy holds true for access to friends, services, and
responses to questions.
