To Blog or not to Blog
Blogs allow easy creation of web pages without HTML knowledge. A blog has posts that readers can comment on, and features like timestamps and comment counts are automatically added. Blogs also use RSS feeds to automatically update readers. While blogs are for conversation, wikis allow collaborative information storage. Good blogs engage readers with ideas, questions, links, and demand interaction through comments. Blogs in education give students an authentic audience and allow archiving work for sharing. They provide opportunities for skills like research, idea synthesis, and organization.
Using Blogs in Classroom
Blogs can be used effectively in education for communication between teachers and students. A blog allows students to take ownership of their learning by expressing their needs and perspectives. Blogs may be used to teach various subjects like languages, math, and science. For language teaching, blogs can supplement core materials by developing reading, writing, listening and speaking skills. In math, blogs allow students to write and reflect on mathematical ideas. Science teaching can integrate blogs to allow teachers to communicate with students and use storytelling. Blogs may also be used to share homework, keep parents informed, and act as an online portfolio for student work and feedback.
Blogger
Blogger is a free blogging platform that makes it easy for teachers and students to create educational blogs. Blogs allow teachers to share resources, lessons, homework, and reflections on teaching practices. Students can share schoolwork, collaborate on projects, and keep reflective journals. Blogger blogs can be kept private or public. Examples provided demonstrate how blogs have been used across grade levels for book reviews, sharing class notes, and documenting local history through student interviews.

Blogs can be used in the classroom to have students write about what they are reading and further develop writing skills. Other web tools like Animoto, Glogster, and Wix can make student projects more fun and interesting. While becoming familiar with new online tools and managing multiple accounts was challenging, online learning allows educators flexibility to learn from home and feels less disconnected with a helpful instructor.
Blogging And Language Arts
Blogging can be incorporated into Language Arts classrooms in several ways. Teachers can create private blogs for students to write about books and discussions, allowing more students to contribute their opinions. Some benefits are that blogging makes writing less intimidating than paper and saves resources. Teachers must get permission and monitor posts to ensure student safety online. Technologies like YouTube, digital stories, and blogs can engage students by incorporating tools they are familiar with from their daily lives.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

Wikis, blogs and web publishing
- 1. Wikis, Blogs and Web Publishing By: Lauren Brodlo
- 2. Most Useful Tool It is hard for me to decide which tool I have found to be the most useful because I really like all of the new tools. I like the Wiki space because I think it is a great tool for parent/teacher communication. I love having the igoogle as my homepage. I think having news, sports and weather in one location is great. Kidblog.org is my new favorite classroom tool. My students absolutely love using it!
- 3. As of now, I feel that my biggest success is my kid blog, Brodlo’s Bloggers. My students love the blog and absolutely love seeing their ideas shared with the class. My biggest challenge was the Wiki page. Although I find it to be a great place to organize ideas and to use as a classroom webpage, I was often very frustrated with the editing. I spent a lot of time moving items so that they were centered. After I would save it, it wouldn’t be centered any more….very frustrating! Successes and Challenges
- 4. I have always been someone who enjoys online learning. I think that allows people the opportunity to really learn things on their own with the guidance of an instructor. Had I been in a class each week, I would have depended more on the instructor to explain things, instead of really learning how to do some things on my own. Moodle and Online learning
- 5. http://mssthirdgrade.wikispaces.com/ My wikispace was designed as a way to give parents of my third grade students information about our classroom. I have included the following pages: Home- link to my e-mail All About Me- background information about me Reading, Math and Writing- gives parents the curriculum that I am teaching as well as resources that they can use to help their child at home. Wiki Space
- 6. http://www.google.com/ig?t=3 (one of my tabs from my igoogle page) The igoogle is one of my favorite tools. I had no idea that something like this existed. I enjoy having the various tabs and all of the information on each tab. I love that I can put whatever I want onto my homepage. igoogle
- 7. http://kidblog.org/Brodlo/ KidBlog.org has been my favorite tool to use in my classroom. My students absolutely love going onto the blog and posting their comments. I think that they feel a true sense of ownership in their work because they can share their thoughts and ideas with their classmates. KidBlog.org…Brodlo’s Bloggers
- 8. http://animoto.com/play/8ZKwpkJv1tk51417nFhiWw Animoto is another one of my favorite tools to use for my classroom and for my personal use. It is such an easy tool to use to make a slideshow/video of your pictures. My students truly enjoyed seeing themselves on the slideshow and it didn’t take too much time to complete! Animoto
