Flipping and connecting your classroom langsidegerrydn
The document discusses the concept of connected learning and flipping the classroom. Connected learning involves learning through real-life scenarios, interdisciplinary activities, communication, collaboration and using technology to facilitate interaction. It can enhance the learning experience by making learning more connected. Flipping the classroom inverts traditional teaching by delivering instruction online and using class time for activities, group work and assessment. The benefits include more flexibility for learners, maximizing the use of time, and allowing teachers to work directly with students. Preparation is needed to amend lesson plans and develop supporting materials for online instruction.
Communication tools in the Nile Basin Development ChallengeILRI
The document discusses various communication tools used by the Nile Basin Development Challenge to share knowledge and information. It compares knowledge sharing to rainwater management, noting that knowledge is precious but easily lost, a source of power but also conflict. It states that just as multiple water systems are promoted, so their tools and approaches allow for multiple uses of information. Various tools are then listed, including a blog for news, wiki for collaboration, Dspace for publishing research, Yammer for conversations, Google Calendar for events, and SlideShare for presentations.

Participatory video can be an effective tool for inclusive research by facilitating two-way communication. It allows marginalized groups to have their voices heard in the policy-making process by telling their own stories through video. When community members create their own videos, it empowers them and improves understanding of their situations and needs. Viewers are more receptive to messages conveyed through video versus face-to-face encounters. While participatory video has limitations that are culturally dependent, it can affirm the perspectives of vulnerable groups and lead to greater acceptance of messages when used as a communication tool in participatory research.

Participatory video can be used as a tool to capture community perspectives on issues like rainwater management. It is a process that empowers communities and catalyzes action and change. Local community members are trained to use video cameras and produce films that convey local issues, knowledge, and viewpoints. These films then facilitate discussion within the community and help communicate grassroots perspectives to researchers and decision makers. While participatory video has potential benefits, there are also challenges to consider such as managing expectations, ensuring the sustainability of efforts over the long term, and avoiding the process being hijacked by more powerful actors.

Using virtual locations and novel ways of networking students and addressing assignment, this instructor seeks to make course learning more sustainable.
This document discusses challenges and considerations around participatory research and engaging participants in data analysis. It provides three examples of projects that aimed for participatory analysis. The first project involved participants in summarizing and discussing findings from research seminars. The second engaged disabled students in all phases of research on e-learning experiences. The third worked with an advisory group of students to analyze stories and identify themes around inclusion in education programs. The document reflects on lessons learned, such as underestimating the time and support needed for participatory analysis. It questions whether the goal is truly shared analysis or empowering marginalized groups, and discusses impacts of participatory research.
Ukraine webinar participatory video february, 2015 Koolwijk
This document discusses participatory video (PV) and its uses. PV involves community members producing their own films to visualize perspectives on issues, build awareness and understanding, and facilitate dialogue. It is used for research, monitoring and evaluation, advocacy, and promoting local knowledge. Case studies from Moldova and Ethiopia show how PV was used in youth development and civic engagement projects. PV allowed communities to document accomplishments, strengthen teamwork, and promote their work to others. It increased recognition for issues and built shared understanding among stakeholders to improve public services. NGOs were trained in PV and applied it in over 30 communities, with benefits like empowering marginalized groups and disseminating best practices.
Reducing Distance in Language Learning (using technologies)Eileen O'Connor
The document discusses how integrating emerging technologies and the internet can support foreign language instruction in many areas. Readily available tools like social networking, video, and website development can be used to reduce distance in language learning. Students can study and immerse themselves in other languages and cultures online. Instructors can provide complex, stimulating experiences beyond textbooks by having students interact and communicate and demonstrate language growth through videos and websites. An educational framework is needed to support including these tools to encourage interpersonal interactions and communications in language instruction.
This document discusses using video in the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classroom. It outlines how today's students are digital natives who learn differently than previous generations. Research shows that video viewing is an active process that can promote learning. When used appropriately, video can benefit different types of learners by appealing to multiple senses and providing information through various channels. The document provides suggestions for effective pre, during, and post viewing activities to maximize learning when incorporating video into EFL lessons.

Video conferencing allows for real-time two-way video and audio communication between two or more locations. It can be used to deliver distance education by enabling interaction between teachers and remote students. Some benefits are reducing travel costs, increasing class sizes, and providing access to experts anywhere. However, video conferencing also faces limitations such as high setup costs, technical issues, and lack of in-person interaction. It works best when teachers and students initially meet in person before using the technology. Universities like the University of Alaska use video conferencing to connect classrooms, conduct interviews, and collaborate across institutions.
Audio visual aids, also known as instructional media, are teaching tools that use both hearing and sight to enhance the learning experience. They make abstract concepts more concrete and aid in retaining knowledge. AV aids can be classified as projected aids like films, slides and overhead projectors, or non-projected aids like models, graphs and flashcards. They serve various purposes such as initiating and sustaining attention, providing realistic experiences, and reinforcing learning. While AV aids have benefits, teachers must still plan, present and apply them effectively in order to maximize their educational impact without becoming a distraction.
Audio visual aids, also known as instructional media, are teaching tools that use both hearing and sight to enhance the learning experience. They make learning more engaging, concrete and realistic. There are two main types - projected aids like films, slides and overhead projectors, and non-projected aids such as charts, models, flashcards and computers. Effective audio visual aids should be adapted to the students' level, meaningful, accurate, simple and cost-effective. They can help attract and sustain student attention, clarify concepts, provide realistic experiences, and ultimately make teaching more effective and interesting.
V1 learning with digital media bringing 21st century skills to the nativesHoda Mostafa
Today’s learners are often referred to as “digital natives” because of the ease with which they interact with digital media and tools. Yet most of them are not digitally “literate” and do not have the necessary critical thinking, visual and information literacy skills necessary to prepare them for today’s media rich environment. This presentation will focus on innovative uses of digital media in different courses at AUC. Special attention will be given to the multimedia essay, in which image and video annotations are incorporated into a “critical essay” providing the necessary evidence to support an argument. We use “Mediathread”, an innovative open source platform developed by Columbia University which allows the “exploration, analysis, and organization of web-based multimedia” while offering the collaborative features of social media. Other collaborative tools that foster media literacy skills will be discussed in the context of a multi-disciplinary team taught course on “Creative Thinking”. These include blogs, “Tumblr” and “Edcanvas”, an innovative sharing platform. The institutional support needed for faculty to develop, implement and assess such learning activities will also be addressed.
The document discusses the benefits of using video in the EFL (English as a Foreign Language) classroom. It notes that today's students are accustomed to multimedia and a digital world. Using video can help engage students and promote active, self-directed learning. The document outlines several benefits of using video, such as helping to learn vocabulary, expand content knowledge, and increase engagement through visual and auditory elements. It also provides tips for how teachers can effectively incorporate video into their lessons, such as pairing it with interactive activities before, during and after viewing.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images

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.

1. What is Participatory Video?
Participatory Video (PV) involves teaching community members how to use video so they can represent issues that are important to them,
regardless of literacy levels. The passing of the camera to community members can yield positive dividends through development of a
community driven product the finished film. However, the process itself can also empower communities and act as a catalyst for change at
local level. PV has been used in a range of contexts to give voice to local communities.
Participants are introduced to the video camera They acquire basics through active learning Learning is equal: students become teachers Confidence is gained through new skills
Participants learn to use additional equipment Key issues are identified using PRA techniques Narratives are developed using storyboards The process aims to be fun & engaging
Different community views are captured Participants watch & reflect on their films Enables access to inaccessible areas Participation can be extended to editing
Films are screened to the wider community and Additional information can be incorporated from a Films can be shown to outside audiences including External screenings are documented to show
feedback is gathered range of community members researchers & decision makers communities that their voice is heard
Participatory Video:
¾ Can be used as a tool for participatory research and development: it is collaborative rather than extractive and encourages two way exploration
¾ Enables communities to represent themselves from their point of view, including indigenous knowledge which is often difficult to capture using text
¾ Empowers participants to release hidden potential and resources
¾ Contributes to skills development and capacity building so can be a way of giving something back to communities suffering from research fatigue
¾ Bridges gaps between people from different backgrounds and perspectives
¾ Facilitates horizontal and vertical communication: with those in power who are hard to reach as well as peers
¾ Enables community level analysis which can act as a catalyst for action and change
¾ The process is as important as the product!
