Fake news: Identifying, debunking and discussing false narratives with learnersLearningandTeaching
Fake news. It was the 2017 word of the year, but how is it understood by the student of today?
Students today are often heavily engaged in the online community, moving in social spheres that may be foreign to their teachers. With studies revealing that 48% of Australians now use social media as a news source, it is increasingly important for educators to understand how their students are engaging with online content and communities. As educators, we must equip ourselves with the tools and skillsets needed to debunk false, misleading and biased content and to show our students how to do the same.
In these slides, Alyce Hogg introduces the drivers of fake news, from online communities like ‘Reddit’ and ‘4chan’, to bots and content mills. Alyce also provides strategies and resources for identifying and debunking fake news, and suggests approaches for discussing fake news with students.

10 things to do when you discovered you've been cyber-libeled or cyberbulliedDebbie Elicksen
Cyberbullying is not just a schoolyard issue, but you would never know it when you open a search engine.
Workplace bullies follow employees home through the computer. Stalkers, ex-boyfriends/girlfriends seeking revenge, disgruntled job candidates that were passed over, creditors, or a stranger that just dislikes the color of your eyes…haters are everywhere and they are posting trash on the Internet.
While there are crossovers between the classroom and the boardroom with respect to how cyberbullying comes about and how to deal with it – for the most part, the schoolyard doesn’t impact a company’s balance sheet. There are issues that only adults and businesses face and children do not. The affect on commerce and trade impacts the ability to do business.
Tips for integrating Twitter, Storify, Facebook, Google Plus and much more into your newsroom. Presentation at workshop for International Press Institute World Congress in Amman, Jordan, 2013.

What if you could collect real-time, first-person information about a disaster that included pictures and
video? Learning to use social networking sites to augment situational awareness and information
collection could improve disaster response by your agency. Find out how the use of #hashtags,
aggregators and targeted searches can give you a wider picture than what is available through traditional
media monitoring. In addition, online surveys show that respondents have voiced their expectation that
agencies will respond directly to social media requests for assistance. Response and redirection of these
requests can avert a public relations nightmare. Will the use of social media help or hinder your response
to those affected by a disaster. In some cases a tweet for help has resulted in an avalanche of calls to 911
by Twitter followers.

When we think of the process for attacking an organization, OSINT comes to the front and center of our minds. This presentation takes a presenter with experience in applying OSINT to effective penetration testing and social engineering and reverse engineers the process to determine what steps can be taken to further complicate their efforts. This is a presentation that talks about online deception, decoy accounts, canary data, encryption, maintaining one’s social media in a secure manner, and protecting one’s identity as much as possible. While nothing is absolute, this is a presentation that will leave attendees more aware of techniques to make it harder for attackers to collect accurate OSINT, either by removal or deception.

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
