Schoology is a virtual learning environment and social networking service for K-12 schools and higher education institutions that allows users to create, manage, and share academic content. Also known as a learning management system (LMS) or a course management system (CMS), the cloud-based platform provides tools needed to manage a virtual classroom lesson.
LMS allows teachers to manage classes remotely through posting daily reminders or updates, directly messaging students, and managing scheduled assignments. Assignments can include quizzes, forms, links to websites/videos, and discussions for students to share ideas. Students can join a course by using a 13-digit access code or get added to a class directly by a teacher.
This book features 9 different assessment platforms, namely ExamTime, TestMoz, GotoQuiz, QuizWorks, Classmarkers, Proprofs, MakeAQuiz, QuizEgg, and QuizBean. Most of these tools do not require the user to register for an account, which provides convenience when a teacher needs to have a quick assessment on students’ understanding. These assessment platforms also provide one-click away performance analysis and scores the students obtained upon the completion of a particular quiz. Each chapter starts by simply introducing the name of the assessment tool that follows with descriptions and benefits of the respective assessment tool. Readers will appreciate the inclusion of screenshots to ease their navigation in making the most out of the online resources. It is hoped that this book will provide a resource to advocate for the best possible ways to learn from the open world.
This is our group presentation for my internet applications course. I had some trouble downloading it from Google docs. It would not download the Table of Contents page, saying it was corrupted. I was able to recreate the page, but I couldn't get the pictures of each student.
Smart TV Buyer Insights Survey 2024 by 91mobiles.pdf91mobiles

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

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!

4. To create an account, go to www.photopeach.com . You will see a green button that prompts you to sign up for a free account. Click the button, and you will be directed to the page below. Upload pictures from your computer, Facebook, or Picasa, then select your music, and your slideshow will load.

6. Frustrations of PhotoPeach The free version of PhotoPeach limits you limits 30 slides per show. You must use music provided by PhotoPeach, and downloads are only possible with the advanced version.
7. Additional Thoughts on PhotoPeach..... Overall, I like PhotoPeach. I am amazed at how easy and fast it is to make a slideshow. You could teach a lesson to your students, take pictures, and create a slideshow using the pictures for review. I think it is a great tool for educational use. PhotoPeach has a section of archived slideshows that you can browse through to search for a specific topic. While there is an education section, I did not find many shows that would fit my needs. Several of the shows seem to be specific to one topic or theme. With time, the site will build up the archives, and there will be more of a selection for educators. I will continue to use PhotoPeach, but I will also look around for other slideshow applications with a larger educator base.

14. Wordle Wordle is a tool that creates “word clouds” from text that you provide. In the nine months since its launch in June 2008, over 600,000 Wordles have been created – a pace of one new Wordle every 10 seconds.
15. To create a wordle, go to www.wordle.net . There is no account necessary to create a Wordle. Simply click on the button labeled “create” and you will be on your way to developing your personal word cloud. By using one of the three methods above you can enter the words you want to incorporate in your Wordle. Press “go” or “submit” and your Wordle will be created.
16. Benefits of Wordle There are many useful ways to use Wordle in the classroom. Here are several ideas: 1. Turning an essay into a poster 2. As an introduction to a course, combine key words, themes and a visual overview of content. 3. Summarizing notes in a class 4. Summarizing a short reading passage 5. Represent the results of brainstorming sessions 6. Word poetry 7. Pre-assessment of a unit
17. Frustrations of Wordle Wordle is not “policed” for content, so it’s possible that younger students could find inappropriate content if they search the gallery images. Also, you cannot save your Wordle directly as an image, although you could save it to the online gallery or print it. If you want your Wordle preserved as an image you could take a screen shot and then edit that using image editing software. Another frustration when using Wordle is the inability to search the gallery for previous created Wordles related to the topic of desire.
18. Additional Thoughts on Wordle… I think Wordle is a great addition to a classroom. It allows both students and teachers to be creative. Although it may not help increase test scores, it has the ability to motivate and change the way students look at concepts in the classroom. I love that Wordle is easy to use. It requires little instruction and does not take a long time to create. My only criticism is the inability to save the Wordle. Once the creators fix this minor issue it will be a perfect tool to use in the classroom.
19. What2Learn.com Free on-line learning game generator launched in Britain in 2008 and in America in January 2010. Games can be generated by teachers and students. Game types include hangman, multiple choice, interactive word searches and anagrams with over a dozen choices of graphics.
20. How do I get started? To create an account, go to www.what2learn.com and click on the “sign up” button. It is easiest to create a single account first. This allows you to decide if your students should then create their own accounts or if you should get a “class pass”. A class pass has 30 preset usernames and passwords that your students can use and is free. Be sure to choose what “class” you want to use. The default is set for Key Stage 3 in British curriculum.
21. How can I know if my students are learning? What2Learn (W2L) allows teachers to see their students’ scores when the students enter the teacher’s “sharing code.” Students can choose from over 2000 pre-loaded games and over 5000 user-loaded games. Teachers can also choose what games their students should play and load them into their “recommended topics” list which then appears on the students’ accounts.
22. Other features include: Students have “micons” (avatars) which they can personalize by earning credits when they successfully complete games. Games are easily created by students and teachers. Students can link to their friends to share the games they created and build competitive leagues.
23. Frustrations This site is very difficult to navigate for teachers and students. The movement from one page to another or one part of the application to another is not consistent and becomes extremely confusing. When moving students to different class groups within the teacher account, students’ scores and student accounts are “lost” in the system. User-created games are not easily found after they are created.
24.
25. Kidblog is a great website where teachers can go in, create classes, and have complete control over their students' blogs. It is aimed at elementary and middle school students. Kidblog is simple to use and safe. No student e-mail addresses are required.
26. Creating an account is easy and FREE. All you need to do is the following: 1. Go to www.kidblog.org 2. Look for the image above on their main page 3. All you have to do is create a username, password, and submit an e-mail address where notification should be sent to. THAT'S IT! YOU CAN BEGIN!
27. There are some great benefits to Kidblog! - Safe-No student e-mail addresses required - Simple to use and free - Completely under teacher's control On many websites, students can just post without needing to get approval. This can lead to hurtful or inappropriate things being said. Kidblog eliminates that worry.
28. You do not want to end up like this!!!!! FRUSTRATIONS I thought about a few things while working with the site. What if I have students that do not have computer access at home? Then, I would have to give them time in class to complete the work. Also, if you require students to do a fair amount of posting, that would be another thing to add to your to do list. You would have to check your e-mail, verify posts, and then go in and read them. Other then a few technical things, I think this site is very easy to accomodate in a class- room. It is just about making it work for you and to the best benefit of your students.
29. I am going to figure out a way to incorporate this into the classroom. Kids love computers and the internet. This would be a good way to "hook" them. Also, it might make students who are afraid to talk in class more comfortable. If you teach grades 4 and up I would recommend this. Younger students might have more of a difficult time navigating it. I also love how easy it is to set up. Right now, I have mine open for public use. Students do not need a username or password to comment, of course, pending my approval. However, to make it more private, I could give everyone a username or password. Also, it would prevent other students from accessing it. The last but most important thing, is that you, the teacher have 100% control. You look at everything before it goes public! Check it out! It can benefit you and your students!
