  • A FACULTY PERSPECTIVES and PRACTICES of SOCIAL PRESENCE in ONLINE POST-SECONDARY LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS a Dissertation SUBMITTED
    FACULTY PERSPECTIVES AND PRACTICES OF SOCIAL PRESENCE IN ONLINE POST-SECONDARY LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Julie Ann Smith IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF EDUCATION Joyce Strand, Ph.D., Adviser April 2018 a Julie Ann Smith 2018 © b Acknowledgements This dissertation would not have been able without my patient adviser, Dr. Joyce Strand, who continued to support me throughout the years and help me to finally finish this research project. The last three years of trying to finish my dissertation included the caregiving to my mother and father. My father spent over two years in assistive care at the end of battling a long war with Alzheimer’s. He needed my mother’s help and she needed mine. This, and a concurrent divorce to my husband of 23 years, prolonged my ability to complete the writing of this dissertation, thus a long time had passed since the literature review. Many thanks go to my committee and doctoral chair who patiently provided me excellent advice in educational theory, interview and survey questionnaire revisions and/or dissertation guidance: Drs. Helen Mongan-Rallis, Craig Stroupe, Terrie Shannon, and Linda Deneen, and Chair Dr. Frank Guldbrandsen. Acknowledgements also go out to the faculty survey respondents and interviewees. Without their volunteer time, participation, and input, I would not have results to advance the study of social presence in the Community of Inquiry model. Additional thanks go to the faculty and staff and my cohort of the Education Doctorate in Teaching and Learning program at the University of Minnesota Duluth in the College of Education and Human Service Professions.

    Yee et al. The Tablecast Data Publishing Protocol The Tablecast Data Publishing Protocol Ka-Ping Yee Dieterich Lawson Google Medic Mobile [email protected] [email protected] Dominic König Dale Zak Sahana Foundation Medic Mobile [email protected] [email protected] ABSTRACT We describe an interoperability challenge that arose in Haiti, identify the parameters of a general problem in crisis data management, and present a protocol called Tablecast that is designed to address the problem. Tablecast enables crisis organizations to publish, share, and update tables of data in real time. It allows rows and columns of data to be merged from multiple sources, and its incremental update mechanism is designed to support offline editing and data collection. Tablecast uses a publish/subscribe model; the format is based on Atom and employs PubSubHubbub to distribute updates to subscribers. Keywords Interoperability, publish/subscribe, streaming, synchronization, relational table, format, protocol INTRODUCTION After the January 2010 earthquake in Haiti, there was an immediate need for information on available health facilities. Which hospitals had been destroyed, and which were still operating? Where were the newly established field clinics, and how many patients could they accept? Which facilities had surgeons, or dialysis machines, or obstetricians? Aid workers had to make fast decisions about where to send the sick and injured— decisions that depended on up-to-date answers to all these questions. But the answers were not readily at hand. The U. S. Joint Task Force began a broad survey to assess the situation in terms of basic needs, including the state of health facilities. The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) was tasked with monitoring and coordinating the actions of the many aid organizations that arrived to help.

  • Open Search Environments: the Free Alternative to Commercial Search Services
    Open Search Environments: The Free Alternative to Commercial Search Services. Adrian O’Riordan ABSTRACT Open search systems present a free and less restricted alternative to commercial search services. This paper explores the space of open search technology, looking in particular at lightweight search protocols and the issue of interoperability. A description of current protocols and formats for engineering open search applications is presented. The suitability of these technologies and issues around their adoption and operation are discussed. This open search approach is especially useful in applications involving the harvesting of resources and information integration. Principal among the technological solutions are OpenSearch, SRU, and OAI-PMH. OpenSearch and SRU realize a federated model to enable content providers and search clients communicate. Applications that use OpenSearch and SRU are presented. Connections are made with other pertinent technologies such as open-source search software and linking and syndication protocols. The deployment of these freely licensed open standards in web and digital library applications is now a genuine alternative to commercial and proprietary systems. INTRODUCTION Web search has become a prominent part of the Internet experience for millions of users. Companies such as Google and Microsoft offer comprehensive search services to users free with advertisements and sponsored links, the only reminder that these are commercial enterprises. Businesses and developers on the other hand are restricted in how they can use these search services to add search capabilities to their own websites or for developing applications with a search feature. The closed nature of the leading web search technology places barriers in the way of developers who want to incorporate search functionality into applications.

  • Working with Feeds, RSS, and Atom
    CHAPTER 4 Working with Feeds, RSS, and Atom A fundamental enabling technology for mashups is syndication feeds, especially those packaged in XML. Feeds are documents used to transfer frequently updated digital content to users. This chapter introduces feeds, focusing on the specific examples of RSS and Atom. RSS and Atom are arguably the most widely used XML formats in the world. Indeed, there’s a good chance that any given web site provides some RSS or Atom feed—even if there is no XML-based API for the web site. Although RSS and Atom are the dominant feed format, other formats are also used to create feeds: JSON, PHP serialization, and CSV. I will also cover those formats in this chapter. So, why do feeds matter? Feeds give you structured information from applications that is easy to parse and reuse. Not only are feeds readily available, but there are many applications that use those feeds—all requiring no or very little programming effort from you. Indeed, there is an entire ecology of web feeds (the data formats, applications, producers, and consumers) that provides great potential for the remix and mashup of information—some of which is starting to be realized today. This chapter covers the following: * What feeds are and how they are used * The semantics and syntax of feeds, with a focus on RSS 2.0, RSS 1.0, and Atom 1.0 * The extension mechanism of RSS 2.0 and Atom 1.0 * How to get feeds from Flickr and other feed-producing applications and web sites * Feed formats other than RSS and Atom in the context of Flickr feeds * How feed autodiscovery can be used to find feeds * News aggregators for reading feeds and tools for validating and scraping feeds * How to remix and mashup feeds with Feedburner and Yahoo! Pipes Note In this chapter, I assume you have an understanding of the basics of XML, including XML namespaces and XML schemas.

  • Rss Reader Android App Source Code
    Rss reader android app source code Continue Android: Google Reader webapp is pretty good, but we've long wanted an official, native Google Reader app since we started using Android. Today, Google has made this dream come true, with additional volume like key navigation, multiple accounts, and sharing. The app really is a great standalone version of Google Reader, offering full search and subscription features directly from the app. You can also use multiple accounts, synchronize your preferences, and share articles with friends (as well as view their shared articles). Among the features that you would expect, however, are a few cooler features that we are very excited about. At the top of the list is volume navigation, which, once included in the settings, will allow you to quickly skip your feeds (a la j and k shortcuts in your desktop web app). You can also click a folder or subscription to rename it, unsubscribe from it, or change folders. And, as with most Android apps, you can click the menu button to send the article to other apps such as Facebook, Gmail and Twitter. If you're still dissatisfied with Android RSS readers out there, we strongly suggest giving this a go. Google Reader is a free download for Android phones. It's available on the Android market, but you'll have to scroll down a bit to find it. Alternatively, hit up the CD code on the right to download it right away. Android Google Reader App is here! It is true that RSS is not as popular as it was rage.

  • 4134(A) Personnel ADMINISTRATIVE REGULATIONS REGARDING USE of SOCIAL MEDIA the Board of Education Recognizes the Importance
    4134(a) Personnel ADMINISTRATIVE REGULATIONS REGARDING USE OF SOCIAL MEDIA The Board of Education recognizes the importance and utility of social media and networks for its employees. The laws regarding social media continue to evolve and change. Nothing in the Board’s policy or these administrative regulations is intended to limit an employee’s right to use social media or personal online accounts under applicable law, as it may evolve. The Board acknowledges, for example, that its employees have the right under the First Amendment, in certain circumstances, to speak out on matters of public concern. The Board will resolve any conflict between the Board’s policy or these regulations and applicable law in favor of the law. Ordinarily, the use of social media by employees, including employees’ personal online accounts, will not be a legal or policy issue. While a policy or regulation cannot address every instance of inappropriate social media use, employees must refrain from social media use that: 1) interferes, disrupts or undermines the effective operation of the school district; 2) is used to engage in harassing, defamatory, obscene, abusive, discriminatory or threatening or similarly inappropriate communications; 3) creates a hostile work environment; 4) breaches confidentiality obligations of school district employees; or 5) violates the law, board policies and/or other school rules and regulations. Definitions: The rapid speed at which technology continuously evolves makes it difficult, if not impossible, to identify all types of social media. Thus, the term Social Media includes a variety of online tools and services that allow users to publish content and interact with their audiences.
