Gamification is a hot topic right now. But what is it? How does it work, and why should you care? Tune in to this webinar to learn how to apply game mechanics to engage citizens and solve agency problems. Gamification can integrate the most engaging, exciting, and addictive aspects of game play into your agency’s business processes. We will discuss the newly formed Federal Games Guild. Led by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, the group was established in November 2011. We will also highlight projects created by a variety of agencies and collaborators. Finally, you will learn how to become involved with the group. A recording of the talk can be found at: http://www.howto.gov/training/classes/gamification

Many of us in government want to change the way our agencies work. These changes can take many forms. Some of us may want to fix a process or change/eliminate counterproductive rules. Others may wish to shoot for more ambitious goals that require a change of culture. The current push to expand the use of collaboration tools like Web 2.0 technologies is one example of a big and important culture change.Effecting change in a large organization is difficult. Those difficulties can be magnified greatly in the public sector. Entrenched rules and structures pose many obstacles. Resource limitations often seem to be the things in greatest abundance. And the possibility of criticism from senior bosses, Congress and the media tends to make many managers risk averse.So how does one overcome all these obstacles to bring about significant positive change? Here is the 12 step guide.

NOAA’s long-standing mission in real life is the same in virtual worlds—to create an informed society that understands the role of the ocean, coasts, and atmosphere in the global ecosystem to make the best social and economic decisions. By incorporating virtual worlds into their multi-media communication and educational programs including inworld events and a vast array of immersive simulations and 3D exhibits, NOAA has found meaningful and profound ways to reach new audiences—in the virtual world and in the physical one.

MySQL Webinar, presented on the 25th of April, 2024. Summary: MySQL solutions enable the deployment of diverse Database Architectures tailored to specific needs, including High Availability, Disaster Recovery, and Read Scale-Out. With MySQL Shell's AdminAPI, administrators can seamlessly set up, manage, and monitor these solutions, ensuring efficiency and ease of use in their administration. MySQL Router, on the other hand, provides transparent routing from the application traffic to the backend servers in the architectures, requiring minimal configuration. Completely built in-house and supported by Oracle, these solutions have been adopted by enterprises of all sizes for their business-critical applications. In this presentation, we'll delve into various database architecture solutions to help you choose the right one based on your business requirements. Focusing on technical details and the latest features to maximize the potential of these solutions.

Corporate and higher education. Two industries that, in the past, have had a clear divide with very little crossover. The difference in goals, learning styles and objectives paved the way for differing learning technologies platforms to evolve. Now, those stark lines are blurring as both sides are discovering they have content that’s relevant to the other. Join Tammy Rutherford as she walks through the pros and cons of corporate and higher ed collaborating. And the challenges of these different technology platforms working together for a brighter future.

Created by Mozilla Research in 2012 and now part of Linux Foundation Europe, the Servo project is an experimental rendering engine written in Rust. It combines memory safety and concurrency to create an independent, modular, and embeddable rendering engine that adheres to web standards. Stewardship of Servo moved from Mozilla Research to the Linux Foundation in 2020, where its mission remains unchanged. After some slow years, in 2023 there has been renewed activity on the project, with a roadmap now focused on improving the engine’s CSS 2 conformance, exploring Android support, and making Servo a practical embeddable rendering engine. In this presentation, Rakhi Sharma reviews the status of the project, our recent developments in 2023, our collaboration with Tauri to make Servo an easy-to-use embeddable rendering engine, and our plans for the future to make Servo an alternative web rendering engine for the embedded devices industry.

Editor's Notes

What are virtual worlds?A new online developmentplatform born out of the video game industry.A massively multiplayer online environment where users can interact with our science and each other through avatars. An electronic representation of ones self.For today’s presentation I’m going to let my avatar do the talking. So sit back, relax, and enjoy.
