Visuals play important roles in instruction by providing concrete referents, motivating learners, and simplifying complex information. Effective visual design considers visual elements, patterns, and arrangement. Elements include realistic, analogic, and organizational visuals as well as consistent verbal elements like letter style and size. Effective patterns apply principles of alignment, shape, balance, style, and color scheme. Arrangement maximizes proximity of related items, uses directional cues, and employs figure-ground contrast and consistency. Proper visual planning and tools help create clear and impactful visual aids.

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!

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

2. Roles of Visual in Instruction
1) Provide a concrete referent for ideas
- iconic i.e. more easily to be remembered
as compared to words.
This visual image of an apple
is the referent of the word ‘apple’
3. Role of Visuals in Instruction
2. Motivate learners by attracting their
attention, holding their attention and
generating emotional responses.
3. Simplify information that is difficult to
understand.
4. SERIES OF DESIGN DECISION

5. Visual Literacy
• refer to the learned ability to interpret
visual messages accurately to create
such messages.
2 visual approaches
1. Input Strategy
2. Output Strategy
7. Developmental Effect
(Dwyer, 1978) “As a child gets older, he
becomes more capable of attending
selectively to those features of an
instructional presentation that have the
greatest potential for enhancing his
learning of desired information.
8. Different cultural groups may perceive
visual materials in different ways.
• Usually thumbs up gesture
means positive or okay.
• But for Balinese the thumbs
up is part of a ritual way of
showing respect to someone
of a higher caste.
10. Visual Literacy: Output Strategies
1) Learners create their own visual
presentation
- using camera / camcorder etc.
- sequencing – ability to arrange idea in
logical order
11. Goals of Visual Design
• Ensure legibility
• Reduce the effort required to interpret the
message
• Increase the viewer‟s active engagement
with the message
• Focus attention on the most important part
of the message
12. Process of Visual Design
1) Elements – selecting the verbal/visual
elements to be incorporated into display
2) Pattern – choosing an underlying pattern
for the elements of the display
3) Arrangement – arranging the individual
element within the underlying pattern
13. Elements : Visual Elements
1) Realistic
• Show the actual object under study
ABSTRACT REALISTIC
14. Elements : Visual Elements
2) Analogic visuals
Convey topic by showing something else and
implying a similarity
E.g. the function of human memory with the
function of computer memory
15. Elements : Visual Elements
3) Organizational visuals
• Such as flowcharts, graphs, maps,
classification charts
16. Elements : Verbal Elements
1) Letter style
• It should be consistent and harmonize with
the other visual elements
• Straightforward and plain style
17. Elements : Verbal Elements
2) Number of lettering styles
• Not more than 2 different type styles
• Limit variations (bold, italic, underline, size
changes) to four
18. Elements : Verbal Elements
3) Capitals
• Use lowercase letters
• Adding capitals when it is necessary
• Headlines can be in capitals but not more
than 3 words
19. Elements : Verbal Elements
4) Colour of lettering
• The lettering colour should contrast with
the background colour
• Think about your audience..
20. Elements : Verbal Elements
5) Size of lettering
• Rule of thumb: make lower case letters ½
inch high for each 10 feet of viewer
distance
21. Elements : Verbal Elements
6) Spacing between letters
• Consider „optical spacing‟
• Estimating approximately equal amounts
of with space between letters
LABWORK
22. Elements : Verbal Elements
7) Spacing between lines
• Letters should be not too cramped or too
widely separate
• Text is most legible when separation is
11/2 times average letter height
23. Elements :
Elements that add appeals
• Surprise
• Interaction
24. Process of Visual Design : Pattern
Alignment Shape Balance
Style Color Scheme Color Appeal
25. Process of Visual Design : Pattern
1) Alignment
• Balance alignment
• Same imaginary horizontal and vertical
line
• Viewer expend little effort making sense
out of what they are seeing
26. Process of Visual Design : Pattern
2) Shape
• Put and arrange visual into shape that
familiar to learner
• Simple geometric figure – circle, rectangle
• Consider of the „Rule Of Thirds‟
27. Rule of Thirds
• Place your important elements where these lines
intersect
• Good places to put things; third of the way up, third of
the way in from the left
• Duff places to put things; right in the middle, right at the
top, right at the bottom, away in the corner
28.
29.
30. Process of Visual Design : Pattern
3) Balance
• The „weight‟ of the elements in a display is
equally distributed either horizontally or
vertically
31. Process of Visual Design : Pattern
4) Style
• Simple, uncluttered
• Primary colour for children
• Realistic colour for adult
32. Process of Visual Design : Pattern
5) Colour scheme
• Consider the harmoniousness of the
colour – color wheel
6) Colour appeal
• Consider „warm‟ and „cool‟ colour
• Warm colour – active learner, children
• Cool colour – thoughtful learner, adult
• Consider cultural basis
33. The Colour Wheel
Complimentary colours: any two colours
that lie directly opposite each other
Analogous colours: colours that lie
next to each other
Complimentary and
Analogous colours may form
pleasing combinations when
used together in a display
34. • Use cool colour for
background
• Highlight important cues
in warm colour such as red
and orange
