Prezi sucks

The document discusses how presenters often rely too heavily on presentation tools like PowerPoint instead of their own skills and abilities. While tools can help presenters be heard, people have also created tools to hide behind. The most fundamental presentation tools are a person's mind, body and voice. When presenting, presenters should focus on how badly they want their ideas to come alive rather than the tools they use.

..and everything else that is
brighter than the speaker

All through history, people
sought for tools..

..to help them to be heard
above the crowd.

… people also invented tools to
hide behind.

If you have something important
to say...

…and begin using a human
being’s most fundamental tools:

…but about how badly you
want your ideas to be alive.

The Digital Divide and Teaching: How Do Our Students Really Use Technology?

Derek Bruff

This document discusses how students use technology compared to instructors. It begins by asking students and instructors to reflect on how they commonly use technology in similar or different ways. It then discusses the concepts of "digital natives" and "digital immigrants" to describe students who grew up with technology versus those who adopted it later. However, it notes this distinction is more complex than a simple age-based divide. Student focus groups reveal they commonly use social media and the internet for keeping in touch with others, getting news and entertainment. The document concludes by highlighting key principles for integrating technology in teaching, such as having a clear goal, explaining the purpose of technological tools, allowing time for students to learn new technologies, and not underestim

How Do You Web? Undergraduate Focus Groups for Informing Pedagogy

Derek Bruff

The document discusses focus groups conducted with Vanderbilt undergraduate students to understand how they use technology and social media outside of class. Key findings include that students frequently use Facebook, Twitter, and video sites for keeping up with friends and news. They find course management systems like OAK useful but prefer other methods for communication. Students suggest faculty could use separate Twitter or blog accounts to supplement learning but avoid merging social and academic accounts. The document advises faculty interested in technology integration to consider students' technology preferences and boundaries.

10Clouds

This document discusses frontend components that exist outside the main application and can be used to test components in isolation and multiple states. It introduces devboards as a solution for React components and mentions other similar tools like devcards and Storybook. Devboards provide benefits like visual overviews of all component states, no code duplication between the devboard and app, and faster development without overhauling the main application. They can help integrate components back into the app and be useful for designers and clients to review components.

Teaching with Clickers for Deep Learning

Derek Bruff

This document discusses using clickers, or student response systems, to engage students in active learning during lectures. It describes a common clicker-based pedagogy where an instructor poses a multiple-choice question, students answer using clickers, and the instructor uses the results to guide further discussion or backtracking. Clickers can be used to pose different types of questions, from factual recall to conceptual understanding to application and analysis. They provide formative assessment to help instructors and students gauge learning. Research shows clickers can improve exam scores and longer-term retention compared to traditional lectures without clickers. The document also introduces the flipped classroom approach which inverts traditional lectures by having students learn new material before class.

iOS 10 Rich Push Notifications

inFullMobile

iOS 10 Rich Push Notifications by Piotr Dębosz How to engage users more actively? The answer is pretty simple: use iOS 10 Rich Push Notifications With iOS 10 Apple introduced rich push notifications to give developers opportunity to engage users more actively with the app directly from lock screen. Rich push notifications allow you to deliver content that includes images, GIFs and videos to increase notification’s response rate. Why we are so excited about them? It is said that one picture is worth a thousand words and that’s certainly true for push notifications. By adding visuals, you can make your push notifications more impactful than ever before. What is more, rich push notifications make it very easy for users to consume content outside of your app. You can show your users that shiny new product right in a notification. Rich push opens up a whole new world of opportunities for apps and we want to make sure you take advantage of it. With that in mind, enjoy the presentation of Piotr Dębosz, our iOS developer.

5 things audiences hate about presentations

Arthur Sevenstern

The document provides advice to speakers on how to keep their audience awake during presentations. It identifies the five most common mistakes speakers make: relying too heavily on technical aids like PowerPoint slides; lacking in-depth, engaging content; having no interaction with the audience; overusing filler words; and experiencing technical difficulties. The document urges speakers to avoid these pitfalls by preparing well and focusing on telling stories and sharing expertise, rather than just facts and slides. This will help keep audiences interested and awake.

Break the rules of presentations

Arthur Sevenstern

This document is an email from Arthur Sevenstern to Steve and Allan providing advice on presentations. Arthur argues that following strict presentation rules is unlikely to result in a great presentation. Instead, presenters should ask themselves which rules can be broken rather than which rules to follow. He notes that great scientists, artists, speakers throughout history have succeeded by breaking conventions and rules. Arthur encourages Steve and Allan to apply this mindset when developing presentations rather than prioritizing safety and avoiding mistakes.

Entrepreneurial mindset: An Introduction to Entrepreneurship

Game Product Manager VS Product Manager.pdf

shohreesmaili1

Hi guys! To do the first things first, I have to introduce myself and my background, and we need an explanation for the reason and incentive behind this summary presentation and the series of articles that may follow for more details. I am a game designer with a focus on economy design. After some years of working in game design, I felt the most inspiring thing for me is seeing an increase in a graph (of course, not the churn graph). The combination of this with a focus on features and their results and the needs of the game led me toward becoming a product manager. At first, I started reading about product managers' roles, responsibilities, daily routines, and most importantly, the methods they use for fulfilling their responsibilities. Initially, I tried to implement these methods in our structure, but the deeper I delved into gaming product management, the more methods I found that needed to change to achieve the best results. After some time, I realized that having knowledge of how product managers in application products operate is necessary but not sufficient to call oneself a game product manager. Of course, they invented the wheel, special thanks to them, but the fact is that we do not have a car; we have bicycles or airplanes! So, the same wheel does not work for us! In this series of articles, I want to describe how things are different when playing the role of a PM or GPM, what you need to know, and what are not our primary challenges. How to become a GPM after discussing the pros and cons of being a PM or GPM. If you are going to choose between one of them, you can stop reading this and choose PM! But if you are passionate about becoming a GPM, I suggest you read these, then take a deep breath, make your final decision, take your sword, and be ready to face dragons, without knowing how to use the sword!

Staffan Canback - The 18 Rays of Project Management

Tellusant, Inc.

A while back I created this training material for project managers in 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴. I am now sharing it widely since it is useful to a broader audience. A central theme is that project management is much more than putting together presentations. It covers all kinds of high-level cognitive efforts, which is why it is exciting (at first). It is also important to note that you do not improvise your way into project management. It is a well-developed craft that is far down its experience curve. I started my career at McKinsey & Company in 1984 and was an Engagement Manager between 1986 and 1989. I then became a partner. So my project management days are long gone, but I have interacted with and trained countless young consultants since. The document is not a manual. If you follow it 100% you would not have time to do your project management job. But I trust there is always an idea or two that is useful on any project. To me, the most difficult part of this document was to create the 18 rays with the grey contours. It involves some trigonometry. Getting this right was fun.
