In 2001, Christopher-Gordon Publishers printed the book entitled, Teaching Digitally: a Guide for Integrating Technology into the Classroom Curriculum. This highly successful publication has already been incorporated into many undergraduate and graduate teacher-preparation courses in instructional technology. While the original Christopher-Gordon text is now out of print, the publisher agreed to restore all copyrights to the author allowing this book to incorporate an modernized version of this valuable hands-on guide to preparing technology-based materials. The features, commands, menu items, and screen shots have been updated to reflect the latest Microsoft Office 2007 package and included as three separate Primers for Text, Visual, and Web-based Materials at the end of this book.

This chapter presents and analyzes an instructional practice developed in an Instructional Technology course required of Education students at Fordham University. The practice was employed to ensure a high level of engagement by assigning students the hands-on development of Web-based, instructional resources suitable for use with their own public school classes. The author describes the transformative quality of the assignment and discusses how it strongly supported students in forming a mental image of Instructional Technology as a viable, desirable dimension of their teaching practice. Discussed in detail are the attitudes and understandings about Instructional Technology of the students, the Web 2.0 tools and content items they selected for use in their projects, the ways they applied them to the instructional resources they developed, and how those satisfied their needs as teachers. The implications of the practice and how it evolved are presented in the broad context of how all those involved in teacher preparation programs may understand and apply them.

With the rapid increase in the volume of e-commerce, the security of web-based transactions is of increasing concern. A widespread but dangerously incorrect belief among web users is that all security issues are taken care of when a website uses HTTPS (secure HTTP). While HTTPS does provide security, websites are often developed and deployed in ways that make them and their users vulnerable to hackers. In this article we explore some of these vulnerabilities. We first introduce the key ideas and then provide several experiential learning exercises so that readers can understand the challenges and possible solutions to them in a hands-on manner.

The data processing systems is a very necessary way to manipulate a data into useful information. The system makes data storage, adding, changing, scheduling to reporting well integrated, so that it can help parts to exchange information and make decisions quickly. The problems faced by GKPI Pal Merah Jambi are currently still using Microsoft Office Word and in disseminating information such as worship schedules, church activities and other worship routines through paper and wall-based worship services. To print worship and report reports requires substantial operational funds, in addition to data collection and storage there are still deficiencies including recording data on the book, difficulty in processing large amounts of data and stored in only one special place that is passive. Based on the above problems, the author is interested in conducting research with the title Designing Data Processing Systems for Web-Based Churches in the GKPI Pal Merah Church in Jambi. The purpose of this study is to design and produce a data processing system for the church. Using this system can facilitate data processing in the GKPI Pal Merah Jambi Church. This study uses a waterfall development method, a method that provides a systematic and sequential approach to system needs analysis, design, implementation and unit testing, system testing and care. Applications built using the web with MySQL DBMS database, PHP programming language and Laravel.

In this applied thesis project, a sample booklet of various expired silver gelatin papers is created. Specific information on the use of expired photographic papers by contemporary photographers is discussed as well as insights from collection caretakers (collection managers/archivists/conservators) on the possible implications that printing with expired silver gelatin papers may have for the long-term preservation of photographic works. The major contribution of this thesis is to create and gain a better understanding of tools that can be used in the characterisation and identification of expired silver gelatin papers. It is also to demonstrate that a tactile tool such as the sample booklet can assist in identifying various deterioration events. I feel that it is important to have a hands-on source that can be used independently or collectively with other sources such as web-based visual identification tools. The booklet will be useful as an educational tool for students, collection care takers, as well as professionals in the photographic field.

<h1 align="center">Abstrak</h1><p>Sistem informasi pendataan siswa Di RA Sami’na Waathanaa, proses pendataan siswa/siswi baik ketika siswa/siswi yang baru masuk, atau yang sudah lulus di data oleh operator sekolah tersebut masih menggunakan Microsoft Office. Hal tersebut menghambat pekerjaan operator serta data-data siswa mudah hilang atau rusak. Pengembangan sistem berupa sistem informasi pendataan siswa berbasis web, sehingga membantu kecepatan dan kualitas dalam penyampaian informasi. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menyediakan Sistem Pendataan Siswa terkomputerisasi dalam database. Metode pengembangan sistem informasi yang digunakan model waterfall, dari mulai analisis masalah, perancangan, hingga implementasi. Menu pada sistem pendataan siswa ini dapat diakses oleh user tertentu yaitu siswa, guru dan admin. Sistem informasi pendataan siswa ini berbasis web dengan pemanfaatan bahasa pemprogram Personal Hypertext Prepocessor (PHP) dan Structured Query Language (SQL). Pengunaan sistem informasi pendataan siswa ini dapat menghemat waktu dan menghasilkan informasi yang dibutuhkan.</p><h1 align="center"><em>Abstract</em></h1><p><em>Student data collection system At RA Sami’na Waathanaa, the student data collection process is good when students who have just entered, or who have graduated in data by the school operator are still using Microsoft Office.

Abstract The education community has focused attention recently on a number of initiatives to evolve, and perhaps revolutionize, approaches for teaching science, mathematics, and engineering. In this paper, we present a new engineering and design technology program, initiated in 1992 and referred to as DTEACh, that focuses on the elementary grades. Two components comprise this new program: (1) open-ended design and exploration lessons that use hands-on models to teach integrated mathematics and science principles, and (2) a two-part teacher preparation program to provide teachers with the necessary engineering, mathematics, and science fundamentals for DTEACh. In this paper, we focus on a description of the teacher preparation program, including discussions of a novel teaching model, the subject matter for engineering and design fundamentals, and evaluation of the program. Results of the evaluation that teachers are more confident and equipped to facilitate the instruction of mathematics, science, and engineering principles.

The continual development of technology represents a challenge when preparing engineering students for future employment. At the same time, the way students interact in everyday life is evolving: their extra-curricular life is filled with an enormous amount of stimulus, from online data to rich Web-based social interaction. This chapter provides an assessment of various learning technology-driven methods for enhancing both teaching and learning in the science and engineering disciplines. It describes the past, present, and future drivers for the implementation of hands-on teaching methods, incorporating industry standard software and hardware and the evolution of learning experiments into all-encompassing online environments that include socializing, learning, entertainment, and any other aspect of student life when studying science and engineering.
