This presentation looks at how a technical writing course can emphasize a research approach and problem solving unlike the academic writing done for most classes. Students learn to do audience analysis, work in collaborative environments and gain familiarity with tools used for writing digital modes. While designing professional documents, such as proposals, they become familiar with the cultural and ethical concerns of a global workplace. The writing tasks are all based on the content of their majors.

Lesson Plan for the Number Talk
Number Talk Problem
How will you set up the activity?
Describe what you will say/do to introduce the number talk. Since you will be working with a
small group of students, friends, classmates or family you’ll need to give an in-depth
explanation of what to expect and what silent signals to use (e.g., thumb on chest, agree
sign). See this video for inspiration and adjust according to your audience. Delete this and
replace it with your plan.
Anticipated Student Strategies
List as many solution strategies as possible
Plan for Talk Moves
Look at the talk moves handout provided in Module 9 and consider how you will use them.
Which ones do you want to focus on using? Your goal is to use three or more different moves
a total of five times.
Wrap Up Questions

Record Talk Moves
What questions might you ask after several students have shared their methods?
Talk Moves
Find examples of different talk moves you used during the discussion. Discuss each talk
move up to the fifth one used in the discussion.
1) List the time stamp in your video for the talk move,
2) Explain which talk move you used (use the handout to identify the type of move) and
state the question you asked,
3) Explain the student’s response, and
4) Explain whether the talk move was effective? If you think it was effective, explain why.
If you don’t think it was effective, explain what you hoped would have happened.

SO308 Principles of Social ResearchData Analysis 4 Interview.docxjensgosney
SO308 Principles of Social Research
Data Analysis 4: Interview
Directions:
Choose one participant that will agree to an administration of the interview schedule.
Find a quiet and comfortable place that sets your participant as ease. Remember not to deviate from the set interview schedule (although you can give minimal responses to requests for clarification or use neutral prompts or probes to get them going or keep them on track). Give your participant a pseudonym and record no information that could lead to their unique identification. Take detailed and exhaustive notes! Record everything because you may not realize that something is important until after the fact. Remember that the purpose of these content analyses is to gather data about how members of different groups think about, talk about, behave toward, or otherwise respond to another. You don’t have to record information that does not pertain to our purpose, but do record everything that may shed light on our research topic!
Take detailed notes during the interview. Include what they said and how they said it [important body language, pauses, and other non-verbal expressions should be noted in square brackets]. Find a quite place as soon after the interview is concluded to record your notes into this form. Clean your notes by removing your shorthand and explaining every detail. Remember that these notes need to be understandable on their own. Include everything and add additional details as you recall them. When you add detail after the fact in this first pass, use “Bright Green” text to distinguish it from your first observations.
Then set your notes aside for about 24 hours so that you can think about them some more. Make a third pass through your notes and use “Blue” text to distinguish these subsequent reflections from your first observations and your initial additions. It is important to make these distinctions clear because your understanding of the interview may change with time. Do not worry if your first, second, and third passes through your data agree with one another. Again, your perspective may change. It is important that you do not delete previous notes, but merely add to them each time through.
Finally, in all three passes, be careful to distinguish between what was said and your interpretation of what was said. Actual descriptions should be recorded in regular text (in the appropriate color), but your interpretations, opinions, and inferences from the data should be italicized. Try to maintain this “fact-value” distinction as carefully as you can (although it is impossible to be perfect in this regard). You can use as many pages for your notes as you need. This document will expand to make room. But please be conscientious about recording everything, including your reactions as the interviewer! Good luck and have fun!

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.

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.

Working on your multigenre
presentation
Use more than one genre. Make your decision soon so you
can get started.
Make sure that your multi-genre assignment is both text-heavy
and visual-heavy.
Have a logical order between slides, parts, sections if you have
any.
Make sure you include your Research Focus.
Inform and persuade your audience ( I would encourage you to
use your lit/ review, interview quotes, survey results, and an
“action plan”)

What is multimodal?
Multimodal assignments take advantage of Web 2.0
technologies that include social networking sites such as
MySpace, Facebook, file sharing sites such as Flickr, and an
emphasis on immediate, content-driven publication rather than
a knowledge of programming skills (Peek 17).
Gaining successful communication skills in paper and
electronic environments.
For the presentation of your SAP, you can also make use of
various social networking sites (facebook, twitter, wikis, blogs)

Findings emerging themes and
categories
Analysis is a breaking up, separating, or
disassembling of research materials into pieces,
parts, elements, or units.
Reread your data and search for types, classes,
sequences, processes, patterns, or wholes.
The aim of this process is to assemble or
reconstruct the data in meaningful or
comprehensible fashion (Jorgenson, 1989:
107).
23. +
Emerging categories
Rather than bringing your own assumptions or preconceived
categories and themes, you need to reread your data and find
themes that recur in your data.
So, categories are defined AFTER you worked on your data.
Example # 1: What is the benefit of youth mentoring program?
Responses to this question were sorted out: Benefits to youth,
benefits to family, benefits to community.
Identify direct quotes and use them as evidence to support your
themes.

your selected genres
1) How is this genre used? What are the main features of
it?
2) What is an example of your genre?
3) Find a visual of the format
4) Why do you think this genre (or the collection of genres)
will be a good way to promote your SAPs?
28. + Blog about your plans in multigenre/multimodal
component of your SAP
A project on: WWI
“There are many genres I could use to show my information. I will
use brochures to show which countries were involved in World
War I, a timeline to illustrate the causes of World War I, a
catalog to show the variety of equipment used in the war, a
poem and an editor’s column to portray people’s reactions to
the war and how it affected them, and an obituary to show
those who died. I can place them all in a poster with some
photos and laminate the whole poster”
