Re-using (rescheduling) an Adobe Connect meeting for a new date, time and participants

A two-minute video that shows you how to edit an existing meeting in Adobe Connect so you can re-use that meeting room for a new date, time and (if needed) different participants.

Requirements Capture: Using UML Use Cases

This is a presentation for our year one INFO1008 course of Computational Systems. It covers the need for requirements capture and the difficulty of building a specification based on user information. We present UML Use Cases and Use Case diagrams as a way of capturing requirements from the users point of view in a semi-structured way.

Programming Principles: Designing Applications

In this session we look at the how to use noun verb parsing to try and identify the building blocks of a problem, so that we can start to create object oriented solutions. We also look at some of the challenges of software engineering, and the processes that software engineers use to meet them, and finally we take a look at some more Design Patterns that may help us reuse well known and effective solutions in our own designs.

WAIS seminar: Ontologies on the Web: An Alternative Model

Wednesday 2nd April 2014 Speaker(s): Stefan Decker Time: 02/04/2014 11:00-11:50 Location: B2/1083 File size: 897 Mb Abstract Ontologies have been promoted and used for knowledge sharing. Several models for representing ontologies have been developed in the Knowledge Representation field, in particular associated with the Semantic Web. In my talk I will summarise developments so far, and will argue that the currently advocated approaches miss certain basic properties of current distributed information sharing infrastructures (read: the Web and the Internet). I will sketch an alternative model aiming to support knowledge sharing and re-use on a global basis.

CETL's Re-Usable Learning Objects

Completed, available and free to use Learning Objects listed by subject area

INFO2009 Group 1 -- Open Source Software Licensing Infographic

An infographic for open source software licensing. This resource can serve as a simple introduction to open source software licensing, and as a reference for future use.

System Design: Using UML Use Cases

In this lecture we cover how UML Use Cases can be used for requirements capture. We look at the anatomy of a Use Case Description, and the way in which use cases can be brought together in a use case diagram. We also look at the way that use cases can be derived from problems using noun verb analysis.

Software Development: Testing

This presentation discusses the role and purpose of testing in the systems/Software Development Life Cycle. We examine the consequences of the 'cost curve' on defect removal and how agile methods can reduce its effects. We concentrate on Black Box Testing and use Equivalence Partitioning and Boundary Value Analysis to construct the smallest number of test cases, test scenarios necessary for a test plan.

Can you tell if they're learning?

The proliferation of Web-based learning objects makes finding and evaluating online resources problematic. While established Learning Analytics methods use Web interaction to evaluate learner engagement, there is uncertainty regarding the appropriateness of these measures. In this paper we propose a method for evaluating pedagogical activity in Web-based comments using a pedagogical framework, and present a preliminary study that assigns a Pedagogical Value (PV) to comments. This has value as it categorises discussion in terms of pedagogical activity rather than Web interaction. Results show that PV is distinct from typical interactional measures; there are negative or insignificant correlations with established Learning Analytics methods, but strong correlations with relevant linguistic indicators of learning, suggesting that the use of pedagogical frameworks may produce more accurate indicators than interaction analysis, and that linguistic rather than interaction analysis has the potential to automatically identify learning behaviour.
