Introduction to Google Apps Script On form submit filter data to sheets Martin Hawksey @mhawksey

The Problem Hi there, I'm trying to get some student PT's to complete a training diary using a Google form. I would like the form to automatically create a new sheet for each user. I should ultimately have 42 entries per user/sheet. http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Docs/thread?tid=6fe8356595e9b859&hl=en http://mashe.hawksey.info

Solution 1 - Filter the data http://mashe.hawksey.info

AI-Powered Streaming Analytics for Real-Time Customer ExperienceDatabricks

Interacting with customers in the moment and in a relevant, meaningful way can be challenging to organizations faced with hundreds of various data sources at the edge, on-premises, and in multiple clouds. To capitalize on real-time customer data, you need a data management infrastructure that allows you to do three things: 1) Sense-Capture event data and stream data from a source, e.g. social media, web logs, machine logs, IoT sensors. 2) Reason-Automatically combine and process this data with existing data for context. 3) Act-Respond appropriately in a reliable, timely, consistent way. In this session we’ll describe and demo an AI powered streaming solution that can tackle the entire end-to-end sense-reason-act process at any latency (real-time, streaming, and batch) using Spark Structured Streaming. The solution uses AI (e.g. A* and NLP for data structure inference and machine learning algorithms for ETL transform recommendations) and metadata to automate data management processes (e.g. parse, ingest, integrate, and cleanse dynamic and complex structured and unstructured data) and guide user behavior for real-time streaming analytics. It’s built on Spark Structured Streaming to take advantage of unified API’s, multi-latency and event time-based processing, out-of-order data delivery, and other capabilities. You will gain a clear understanding of how to use Spark Structured Streaming for data engineering using an intelligent data streaming solution that unifies fast-lane data streaming and batch lane data processing to deliver in-the-moment next best actions that improve customer experience.

What about GDPR?Martin Hawksey

This document is a presentation on GDPR given at the University of Dundee. It provides an overview of key GDPR concepts such as personal data, processing, lawful bases for processing including consent, and the principles of accountability. It discusses how GDPR compliance applies even when personal data from EU citizens is processed outside the EU. Examples are given of how services like Padlet, Peerwise and Teammates can be used in education in a GDPR-compliant way. The presentation emphasizes obtaining consent, anonymizing or obscuring personal data, and having alternatives for students who do not wish to provide personal data.

Twitter in Education: Interactively exploring the conversation with TAGS and ...Martin Hawksey

There has been much research in the use of social media to support learning and teaching. In many instances it is argued that it enables a decentralization of learning moving towards a distributed model which has many benefits including supporting a stronger foundation for lifelong learning. Twitter is one service that has been widely used within this context. The introduction of hashtags as a mechanism to allow communities to form and contribute to a topic is now a well established model within both formal and informal education as well as in society in general. The use of Twitter in this way removes boundaries extending the opportunities for co-learning, in particular, discussions can become less siloed, every contribution to a hashtag community is potentially another opportunity for someone else to join the conversation. The thinning of the walls in this way is not without it implications and the vulnerability of being a learner should never be underestimated. Another consideration is that Twitter has been adopted as a tool to support learning in this way rather than being designed for this purpose. As a result exploring and finding understanding within hashtag communities can be problematic and with many open learning contexts individuals can end up feeling lost. This conversation will explore approaches to help learners and educators gain more insight and a feeling of place within hashtag communities. As part of this we will look at TAGS and TAGSExplorer tools (https://tags.hawksey.info) which have been developed with educators and learners in mind to help support the collection, analysis and exploration of Twitter hashtag communities. These free tools provide a means to collect data from Twitter searches and analysis the results either in Google Sheets, where the data is collected, or visualized in the companion TAGSExplorer web interface. As part of this conversation we will touch upon the limitation of data collection from Twitter and issues around data protection and privacy. We will also provide some examples of where TAGS/TAGSExplorer has been used within an educational context.

TEL Quality and Innovation: What can be learned from the history of computer ...Martin Hawksey

As TEL becomes more professionalised we consider what lessons can be learned from another discipline which has gone through a similar transition. Through the lense of the development of computer science this presentation will look at key moments in this area which might be used to inform or influence how we approach TEL quality and innovation. As part of this we will highlight the approaches adopted by early pioneers like Alan Kay whose attributed to defining the conceptual basics of laptop and tablet computers as part of his work in the 1970s on the Dynabook. Kay (2014) argues when creating future concepts the present inevitably takes all of our focus making anything we do incremental rather than inspirational. Kay’s suggests that by ignoring the present this opens us to the opportunity to take greater inspiration from the past allowing us to dream of a future not constrained by the present. We also consider some of the cultures which have their origins in computer science including the ‘hacker’ subculture. Whilst the term ‘hacker’ has taken on a more sinister definition, referring to those subverting computer security, the original hacker communities founded by Richard Greenblatt and Bill Gosper in the 1960s were focused on the “intellectual challenge of creatively overcoming and circumventing limitations of systems to achieve novel and clever outcomes” - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hacker_culture Finally, we highlight a talk by Bret Victor on the future of programming we look at the reasons a number of innovations in computer science happened in the 50s/60s and the problems this creates for the next generation of programmers if they perceive the fundamentals are correct and continue to develop along these principles.

Making the complex less complicated: An introduction to social network analysisMartin Hawksey

Presented at ILTA EdTech 2017, Sligo, Ireland Supporting posthttps://mashe.hawksey.info/?p=17538 Patterns are left behind. Whether it be replies to a discussion forums, interactions on social media or ingredients in cocktails links can be made and the data used for actionable insight. Network science is one approach that takes these seemingly complex connections and through the use of mathematical methods make it easier to understand. Network science is a well established discipline and it’s origins can be traced to 1736 and the work of Leonhard Euler. The area of social network analysis is a more recent development established in work by Moreno and Jennings in the 1930s. Accessibility to affordable computing in the 1990s combined with data from early social networks like IRC has led to an explosion of interest in social network analysis. This has continued with the emergence of social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter combined with accessibility to the underlying data. The use of network science and social network analysis within educational contexts has seen similar growth. The emergence of ‘Learning Analytics’ as a field of study has highlighted how data can be used to enhance learning and teaching. With social network analysis we can take seemingly complex relationships and making them less complicated. Common applications of network analysis in this area include: identification of isolated students within group activities; identification of people or concepts which are ‘network bridges’; clustering of categorisation of topics; plus numerous other applications. This presentation is designed to be an introduction into network analysis allowing delegates the opportunity to understand the underlying structure of the graph as well as some of the tools that can be used to construct them. The session will begin with an introduction to key network analysis terms and go on to introduce some of the tools and techniques for social network analysis, specifically looking at how data can be collected and analysed from Twitter using tools like TAGS and NodeXL.

Using WordPress as a badge platform #openbadgesHEMartin Hawksey

The Association for Learning Technology has been experimenting with the open source blogging platform WordPress as an Open Badges issuing platform. As part of this presentation we include details of our journey from digital to open badges. As part of this we highlight some of the benefits of using WordPress and the free BadgeOS plugin as well as issues encountered integrating with Mozilla Backpack. As well as the technical aspect we will look at how badges were used in the Open Course for Technology Enhanced Learning (ocTEL). As part of this badges were awarded on a weekly basis for a range of tasks from simply ‘checking-in’ to completing predefined learning activities. Given the range of criteria this presentation explores the general question ‘do open badges count?’. The presentation concludes by looking at current developments which are informing how the Association might use Open Badges in the future.

Learning analytics gaining good actionable insightMartin Hawksey

Presented as part of the University of Sussex's TEL Seminar Series There is greater awareness of the use of data to make improvements in the world around us including learning and teaching. From improvements in business processes to recommendations to what to buy on Amazon all are driven by data. Data by itself does not make a better learner experience and only analytics, the process of making an actionable insight, can help identify gains. As an emerging area 'Learning Analytics' is abound with new opportunities but at the same time these opportunities also raise new ethical and operational concerns. In this presentation we introduce some basic learning analytics concepts, identifying tools and workflows staff may wish to consider. As part of this we also consider the dangers of analytics identifying areas which may lead to learner demotivation or misconception and the questions we should all be asking ourselves to make sure we are always gaining *good* actionable insight. http://www.sussex.ac.uk/tel/workshops/seminar/martin-hawksey

Learning analytics: Threats and opportunitiesMartin Hawksey

Learning analytics is the measurement, collection, analysis and reporting of data about learners and their contexts in order to understand and optimize the learning environment. It involves techniques from computer science, statistics, programming and other disciplines. While learning analytics can provide opportunities to give feedback and improve learning, it also poses threats regarding privacy, ethics, and the misuse of visualizations and absence of educational theory. Overall, learning analytics should be used to start conversations to improve learning rather than make definitive decisions, and it is important that the needs and experiences of learners guide its application.

Google Apps Script: The Authentic{ated} PlaygroundMartin Hawksey

Breaking the Cell #WebExpo Martin Hawksey

Talk given at Using Google Apps Script and Sheets for social network data mining and analysis Examples used in this presentation bundled at http://bit.ly/breaking-cell There is growing interest in the use of data to provide actionable insight. This interest goes beyond the professional analysts and just as fields such as mathematics and astronomy have benefited from the enthusiastic amateur so does data science. Social networks are a rich playground of data and whilst many provide access to their data via APIs but access via this route can be daunting. You can of course turn to 'analytics as a service' sites which will take your credentials and provide you with some answers, but often this can be what they want to tell you and not what you want to hear. A solution is the spreadsheet. Spreadsheets provide an interface for data exploration for those with basic skills. With Google Sheets the opportunities increase exponentially, not just in terms of collaboration, but also with the power of Google Apps Script. Apps Script provides easy integration into other Google products and services, such as Google Analytics, as well as third party APIs like Twitter. In this presentation we show how Google Sheets can become a rich playground where data from different services can be collected and analysed.

Pests of Rice: Damage, Identification, Life history, and Management.pptxArshad Shaikh

Rice pests can significantly impact crop yield and quality. Major pests include the brown plant hopper (Nilaparvata lugens), which transmits viruses like rice ragged stunt and grassy stunt; the yellow stem borer (Scirpophaga incertulas), whose larvae bore into stems causing deadhearts and whiteheads; and leaf folders (Cnaphalocrocis medinalis), which feed on leaves reducing photosynthetic area. Other pests include rice weevils (Sitophilus oryzae) and gall midges (Orseolia oryzae). Effective management strategies are crucial to minimize losses.

RELATIONS AND FUNCTIONS 1. Cartesian Product of Sets: If A and B are two non-empty sets, then their Cartesian product is: A × B = {(a, b) | a ∈ A, b ∈ B} Number of elements: |A × B| = |A| × |B| 2. Relation: A relation R from set A to B is a subset of A × B. Domain: Set of all first elements. Range: Set of all second elements. Codomain: Set B. 3. Types of Relations: Empty Relation: No element in R. Universal Relation: R = A × A. Identity Relation: R = {(a, a) | a ∈ A} Reflexive: (a, a) ∈ R ∀ a ∈ A Symmetric: (a, b) ∈ R ⇒ (b, a) ∈ R Transitive: (a, b), (b, c) ∈ R ⇒ (a, c) ∈ R Equivalence Relation: Reflexive, symmetric, and transitive 4. Function (Mapping): A relation f: A → B is a function if every element of A has exactly one image in B. Domain: A, Codomain: B, Range ⊆ B 5. Types of Functions: One-one (Injective): Different inputs give different outputs. Onto (Surjective): Every element of codomain is mapped. One-one Onto (Bijective): Both injective and surjective. Constant Function: f(x) = c ∀ x ∈ A Identity Function: f(x) = x Polynomial Function: e.g., f(x) = x² + 1 Modulus Function: f(x) = |x| Greatest Integer Function: f(x) = [x] Signum Function: f(x) = -1 if x < 0, 0 if x = 0, 1 if x > 0 6. Graphs of Functions: Learn shapes of basic graphs: modulus, identity, step function, etc.
