Becoming Multiliterate Requires changing Attitudes Practices in education How we join the “conversation” (some examples) Twitter http://twitter.com or Pownce http://pownce.com Worldbridges http://www.worldbridges.net/ Webheads http://webheads.info My course on multiliteracies: http://www.homestead.com/prosites-vstevens/files/efi/papers/tesol/ppot/portal2007.htm

Ten aspects of paradigm shift Pedagogy : Didactic --> constructivist Modeling : Do as I say --> AND as I do Sharing : Copyrighted --> creative commons Trepidation : Will they find out? --> ok to say I don’t know Literacy : Print literacy --> multiliteracies Heuristics : Client server -->peer to peer Transfer : Informal technology is F.U.N. --> applied to professional practice Directionality : Push --> pull Ownership : Proprietary --> open source Classification : Taxonomies --> folksonomies Here, I first suggested multiple aspects of paradigm shift required http://www.homestead.com/prosites-vstevens/files/efi/papers/2007alexandria/web20arabia.htm

Classification: Taxonomies  Folksonomies

Content management vs. overload Keys to collaboration and control of information resources online Syndication - understanding of RSS Aggregation - add to above, understanding of tagging Mashup - Putting it together in reusable learning objects This presentation Explains these concepts in terms accessible to educators Describes how the concepts were applied in Writingmatrix: a worldwide collaboration project

Syndication --> Aggregation --> Mashup blogs listservs podcasts online journals online newsfeeds Technorati searches RSS feeds generated by

Syndication --> Aggregation --> Mashup Bloglines or Google Reader Pageflakes and any of these can be subscribed to in

Syndication --> Aggregation --> Mashup Moodle blocks Embedded videos in blogs http://advanceducation.blogspot.com/2007/10/vances-first-video-production-teaser.html Pageflakes http://www.pageflakes.com/vancestevens/13498617 Netvibes http://www.netvibes.com/webdesk

Writingmatrix: Introduction Initially involved bloggers in Argentina Venezuela Slovenia Who utilized tagging social networking tools to enable the students to locate each other's blogs interact with selected individuals thus identified as being of similar age and interests. http://writingmatrix.wikispaces.com

Writingmatrix: Technique To achieve this, Students are encouraged to blog their interests and concerns tag relevant posts with an identifier unique to the project Technorati then used to identify the posts of participants in other countries http://technorati.com/search/writingmatrix?authority=n&language=en http://screencast.com/t/M33ixayEN2J

Writingmatrix: Outcomes Students are motivated to form writing partnerships Spontaneously without prior collaboration in projects set by teachers collaborating in the project A final aspect of the project is to have students explore areas of mutual interest through tagging some of their and each other's posts in Del.icio.us, then discern who else is reading and tagging their posts

From teacher networked learning to transformation in your classroomVance Stevens

47 slides•10.2K views

The Reform Symposium Conference is but one of a myriad of events taking place almost constantly now where teachers have opportunities for meeting in online spaces and sharing information and expertise with one another. The MOOC concept, whether xMOOC or cMOOC, provides steady often overlapping opportunities for deeper, more prolonged engagement not only with niche topics, but more importantly with others interested in those niches. Google Hangouts on Air now make it possible for anyone to simulcast an event, and many do, extending invitations to colleagues in a mushroom field of communities. It seems there is something of this nature going on every minute, and social media is working virally to spread the word among educators. Stepping back to a wider perspective on this phenomenon, what is going on every minute is networked, connectivist learning. Open education, driven by learners connecting with other learners, is taking place around the clock, around the globe, in countless free spaces, bound only by the amount of time participants can make to engage and absorb the knowledge inherent in their networks. The possibilities this unleashes are only starting to be realized by the brick and mortar establishment. Not that we should quit our daytime jobs any time soon, but we should certainly rethink them. This presentation will draw on present circumstances to inform how we might rethink our role as educators, or perhaps more importantly, encourage others to follow our example. The presenter has been involved in coordinating two virtual communities that have been interacting and learning from one another daily for the past decade. This presentation will show through representative examples how participants in these networks acquire the tools for re-thinking how they engage their students. Networked learning is ineffable in that it must be experienced to be understood, and those without that experience have difficulty grasping a full range of its affordances. As the behavior of participants in online networked learning changes, so their teaching styles change, and the better they are able to model for their students characteristics of what they find most effectively leads to their learning what they want to know in an increasingly interconnected world.

Southeast Asian countries like Indonesia, Cambodia, and Vietnam were heavily influenced by Indian and Chinese culture between 900-1200 AD. India brought language, religion, and cultural practices to Indonesia, visible today in architecture like Borobudur temple. Chinese rule over northern Vietnam for 1000 years left a lasting impact seen in Vietnamese sculpture, buildings, and Confucian-influenced government. Most Southeast Asian societies can be traced to cultural exchange with China and India through this period.

Abundance in teacher professional development: More than meets the eyeVance Stevens

39 slides•1.5K views

Learning2gether episode 340 presented Sun Aug 7 noon UTC Vance Stevens at MMVC16 - Moodle Moot Virtual Conference This Learning2gether Episode #340 is one of many online PD opportunities that are taking place literally as we speak, and if this is a representative moment, this extrapolates to an abundance of PD opportunities online at any given moment. Abundance implies e.g. free, easily accessible, available as per user interest in the manner of a berry bush. But institutional PD is often approached from a mindset of scarcity, meaning it is time-bound, tied to brick and mortar, and often driven top-down. This presentation will help viewers visualize the abundance in a way that this perspective can be shared with whomever is driving your PD through a scarcity paradigm.

34 slides•5K views

This presentation is about a correspondence between two EVO (Electronic Village Online) sessions: 1) the EVO Minecraft MOOC (EVOMC16) and 2) Techno-CLIL (content and language integrated) approach to language development. There is much evidence that Minecraft can enhance language development; for example, the cases discussed in in an article by co-moderators of the EVOMC16 session (Smolčec & Smolčec, 2014). This presentation will suggest to educators interested in adopting the CLIL approach how they might consider Minecraft as a representation of content, and see how language development might derive from interaction in a gamified environment based on that content.

Learning2gether is an initiative of Vance Stevens evolving from synchronous meetings with Webheads in Action taking place weekly since 1998 and more directly from three WiAOC (WiA Online Convergences) in 2005, 2007, and 2009. L2g started in 2010 and has hosted conversations most weeks since, usually on Sundays (but for this occasion, on a Saturday). L2g encourages all educators who enjoy connecting with peers to volunteer to contribute their voices to perpetuating weekly conversations at our L2g venues. This presentation explains how L2g works and how you can contribute and participate.

Developing online listening exercises for natural EnglishVance Stevens

17 slides•1.3K views

This presentation discusses developing online listening exercises for English using speech recognition technology. It addresses challenges like getting text from audio, creating exercises for different devices, and tracking student progress. Speech recognition software like Dragon and Dictanote can extract text from audio with varying accuracy. The presenter suggests combining audio and text by having students speak into speech recognition software to generate text they can read along with. Multimedia exercises created with Hot Potatoes can embed audio and video to allow students to practice listening comprehension.

Challenges in Migrating Imperative Deep Learning Programs to Graph Execution:...Raffi Khatchadourian

1 slide•94 views

Efficiency is essential to support responsiveness w.r.t. ever-growing datasets, especially for Deep Learning (DL) systems. DL frameworks have traditionally embraced deferred execution-style DL code that supports symbolic, graph-based Deep Neural Network (DNN) computation. While scalable, such development tends to produce DL code that is error-prone, non-intuitive, and difficult to debug. Consequently, more natural, less error-prone imperative DL frameworks encouraging eager execution have emerged at the expense of run-time performance. While hybrid approaches aim for the "best of both worlds," the challenges in applying them in the real world are largely unknown. We conduct a data-driven analysis of challenges---and resultant bugs---involved in writing reliable yet performant imperative DL code by studying 250 open-source projects, consisting of 19.7 MLOC, along with 470 and 446 manually examined code patches and bug reports, respectively. The results indicate that hybridization: (i) is prone to API misuse, (ii) can result in performance degradation---the opposite of its intention, and (iii) has limited application due to execution mode incompatibility. We put forth several recommendations, best practices, and anti-patterns for effectively hybridizing imperative DL code, potentially benefiting DL practitioners, API designers, tool developers, and educators.

Enterprise Integration Is Dead! Long Live AI-Driven Integration with Apache C...Markus Eisele

42 slides•141 views

We keep hearing that “integration” is old news, with modern architectures and platforms promising frictionless connectivity. So, is enterprise integration really dead? Not exactly! In this session, we’ll talk about how AI-infused applications and tool-calling agents are redefining the concept of integration, especially when combined with the power of Apache Camel. We will discuss the the role of enterprise integration in an era where Large Language Models (LLMs) and agent-driven automation can interpret business needs, handle routing, and invoke Camel endpoints with minimal developer intervention. You will see how these AI-enabled systems help weave business data, applications, and services together giving us flexibility and freeing us from hardcoding boilerplate of integration flows. You’ll walk away with: An updated perspective on the future of “integration” in a world driven by AI, LLMs, and intelligent agents. Real-world examples of how tool-calling functionality can transform Camel routes into dynamic, adaptive workflows. Code examples how to merge AI capabilities with Apache Camel to deliver flexible, event-driven architectures at scale. Roadmap strategies for integrating LLM-powered agents into your enterprise, orchestrating services that previously demanded complex, rigid solutions. Join us to see why rumours of integration’s relevancy have been greatly exaggerated—and see first hand how Camel, powered by AI, is quietly reinventing how we connect the enterprise.
