The Boring Lecture: Mars, Curiosity, Creativity, and Our Future
Despite the abundance of entertainment media at the touch of our fingertips, we easily feel bored these days and we desperately want to escape from our mundane lives.
Boredom strikes us particularly hard when we feel trapped by endless tasks, responsibilities, habits, and routines in our lives. We want to escape and immerse ourselves in new worlds – perhaps worlds that are more colorful, exciting, rich, and novel.
We seek adventures to save us from all the baggage, drudgery, stress, and anxiety that surrounds us.
‘The Boring Lecture’ invites you to new possibilities and exciting life strategies to escape from boredom. It takes a bit of imagination, courage, and experimentation to get out of boredom (the rut). We will try to escape monotony and mediocrity through embracing uncertainty, curiosity, and wonder.
Towards this goal, we take on a cross-disciplinary tour and explore geeks, mavericks, eccentric artists, weirdoes, crazy entrepreneurs, inventors, dreamers, mind-expanding authors, and insane filmmakers. As we travel from the sublime to the ridiculous, we will expand our sense of what is possible.
Asteroids, stars, black holes, computer games, books, and movies will accompany us on our wonderful journey.
We will travel through our body, our mind, our sleep, and our dreams. We will try to solve two dozens of mini-puzzles and we will experiment with a dozen of mini-learning adventures.
We will explore future disruptive innovations and potential trillionaire sectors.
We will learn about the new gold rush: The space economy. Finally, we will fly through space and land on Mars.
We will learn about the Mars Generation and imagine what daily life might look like at the red planet.

3. ncce 2019 micro:bit make code slidedeck
This document provides an agenda for a workshop on play, creativity, and hands-on learning. It includes introductions, challenges to think differently and try new things, discussions of the benefits of play for learning skills like problem-solving and collaboration, and demonstrations of hands-on activities using tools like Microbits. The overall message is that traditional school environments and practices can stifle creativity, while play-based, experiential learning allows students to directly engage with ideas and truly learn.
Visual Thinking: Working with Pictures
In school we learn to write as a fundamental building block for communication, and drawing is shunted away to “art class.” But scientists like Darwin and Marie Curie, presidents from Jefferson to Obama, and mathematicians, choreographers, and composers all have used sketching to give form to their ideas. Words are abstract and ambiguous, and can lead to miscommunication. We say a picture is worth a thousand words, so why do we discard this critical tool?
Drawing is not just for so-called creatives. Drawing allows you to ideate, communicate, and collaborate with your team. Stop talking around your vision, and get it on the whiteboard where your team can see it! Whether you’re an entrepreneur, an engineer, or a product manager, drawing will make you better at your job. In this workshop, you will go from “can’t draw a straight line” to visually representing complex ideas. First, we’ll demystify the act of sketching. Through a series of activities and exercises, we’ll cover the fundamental building blocks of visual communication. You’ll learn easy ways to draw the most common images, from people to interfaces. Next, we’ll tackle making storyboards, product flows, and interfaces. We’ll finish by working with charts, mental models, and canvases. This is a hands-on workshop, so come with paper, pencils, and pens, and be ready to make your mark.
How to stand out in a conference

Olc Mentoring Presentation2
This document discusses mentoring Millennials in the workplace. It provides background on generational cohorts including Millennials. When mentoring Millennials, it is important to explain rather than assign tasks, solicit input rather than dictate, emphasize communication, and empower them while also saying no when needed. Mentoring can take place both formally and informally. It benefits both mentors and mentees by expanding knowledge and experience and creating stronger professional relationships. Challenges may include addressing perceived favoritism, loss of trust, changing dynamics, and unmet expectations.

Play as Product: How Play and Playfulness can help us build better Products a...Rosemary Elizabeth King
How do we take user needs and real-world problems and come up with something new? How can we be innovative all the time.
As children, we played in order to learn about the world around us and press against our growing boundaries. We took wild journeys of fantasy where every object in front of us had possibilities. This concept of child-eyes essentially means abandoning our ingrained assumptions about the world around us and seeing something with a sense of innocence.
This talk will cover the concept of play as a cognitive developer, examine case studies where play and imagination contributed to amazing product design, and give some ideas as to how we can continue to do this with our team and on our own everyday to help strengthen our "play" musclesProf k tips puppetmaking2012
Prof K provides tips for leading puppet making activities with children that encourage creativity and individual expression. The tips emphasize allowing children to make their own choices with minimal copying, providing structure that allows for multiple solutions, and using simple examples to demonstrate without forcing replication. Challenging projects that are slightly above a child's ability can help them learn new skills, and open-ended questions can stretch their imaginations. Positive feedback should recognize individuals and the group, being specific about what is seen rather than just saying "good job." Most importantly, children should do the entire project themselves with guidance, not having the leader do it for them.

1) "No-thing" represents reducing chairs to their basic concept of being something to sit on, without focusing on specific designs or objects.
2) The document criticizes excessive chair design as being driven by vanity rather than need, and suggests people can sit on anything.
3) It provides indications for sitting that don't involve constructing chairs, such as emptying your mind and finding a comfortable place to sit.
"The Secret" Vision Board
The document provides guidance on maintaining inner peace and composure when facing difficulties or reacting to others.

On Friday 8th September we explored 'Challenge Your Mindset' which is one of ten strategies in City of Edinburgh's Health and Wellbeing programme for "Building Resilience."
Pupils were encouraged to have a Growth Mindset and realise that their abilities are not fixed. Believing that achievement is possible is important, but lots of effort and being open to make and learn from mistakes are also keys to success. We watched videos from Class Dojo and Sport Scotland to encourage us to keep challenging ourselves and keep persevering in our efforts.
Miss McGrouther's P6B class has created a display with inspiring quotes on self belief entitled "Believe in Your #Selfie." Ivy and Alba researched leadership quotes for homework, working hard to impress their teacher with their extra efforts and shared these at Assembly.
The first Maths Week Scotland takes place next week and Ms Mackintosh is leading many maths events and activities in school. Some classes are also taking part in a national Sumdog competition, in school, at home or both.
Today, 8th September, is International Literacy Day and pupils have been invited to take part in the First Minister's Reading Challenge again this year. Reading passports have been ordered and reading challenges will take place throughout the year. One of the first is to join a local library, which then gives access to dozens of free resources such as Mathletics and ebooks.
This week P7C pupils assisted at Assembly in a quiz and in celebrating pupil achievements.

How to move on after your break up- The right way!
The document provides advice for moving on after a breakup. It suggests that people often forget who they were before the relationship and lose themselves. To move on, one must remember the confident, independent person they were before and reclaim that identity. It argues that one likely ditched themselves first by giving up who they were for the other person. To fully move on, one must point the finger at themselves for changing instead of blaming the ex-partner, and work to bring back the "real" self that still exists deep down. Reconnecting with that true identity is presented as the key to claiming oneself back and achieving the ability to fully move on from the past relationship.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
