This document outlines a research project investigating whether artificial intelligence can learn to be a professional project manager. It discusses what is currently known, such as AI being able to replace project managers for cost, schedule and risk work, but successful project management requires strong social skills. It identifies key questions to answer, such as what distinct project management actions are beyond AI's capabilities and what information cannot be digitized for AI to practice project management. The researchers plan to use literature reviews, social media mining, focus groups and other social science theories to explore the learning mechanisms of both human project managers and AI to address these questions.

Emerging opportunities in the age of dataEjaz Siddiqui
ย
We live in a data-driven world. There are more than 4 billion people around the world using the internet.
This show an unprecedented spread and growth of digital devices. These digital devices (Mobiles, Computers, Watches, IoT etc) are the factories for creating data. It means we live in the Age of Data, and itโs expanding at astonishing rates. We may need to unplug and take a break from time to time, but data never sleeps.
This generation of huge data presents many new challenges as well as opportunities. There would be huge opportunity for the people who could collect, process, manage, drive insights and make useful decisions from this data. Certain fields are becoming very important and necessary to manage and process this data.
This document compares web development and data science careers. It defines data science as using the data pipeline to ask questions, collect raw data, process it, explore it, and communicate results. Four common data scientist types are described: researchers with advanced degrees, AI specialists who code solutions from scratch, statisticians with math backgrounds, and super analysts who solve problems through code. Web development types include frontend developers using HTML/CSS/JavaScript, backend developers creating applications, and full stack developers who can do both. The document discusses indirect tech jobs and shows data science and web development have growing job markets. It provides suggestions for how to learn both fields through a free two-week trial program.

Decolonizing Universal Design for LearningFrederic Fovet
ย
UDL has gained in popularity over the last decade both in the K-12 and the post-secondary sectors. The usefulness of UDL to create inclusive learning experiences for the full array of diverse learners has been well documented in the literature, and there is now increasing scholarship examining the process of integrating UDL strategically across organisations. One concern, however, remains under-reported and under-researched. Much of the scholarship on UDL ironically remains while and Eurocentric. Even if UDL, as a discourse, considers the decolonization of the curriculum, it is abundantly clear that the research and advocacy related to UDL originates almost exclusively from the Global North and from a Euro-Caucasian authorship. It is argued that it is high time for the way UDL has been monopolized by Global North scholars and practitioners to be challenged. Voices discussing and framing UDL, from the Global South and Indigenous communities, must be amplified and showcased in order to rectify this glaring imbalance and contradiction.
This session represents an opportunity for the author to reflect on a volume he has just finished editing entitled Decolonizing UDL and to highlight and share insights into the key innovations, promising practices, and calls for change, originating from the Global South and Indigenous Communities, that have woven the canvas of this book. The session seeks to create a space for critical dialogue, for the challenging of existing power dynamics within the UDL scholarship, and for the emergence of transformative voices from underrepresented communities. The workshop will use the UDL principles scrupulously to engage participants in diverse ways (challenging single story approaches to the narrative that surrounds UDL implementation) , as well as offer multiple means of action and expression for them to gain ownership over the key themes and concerns of the session (by encouraging a broad range of interventions, contributions, and stances).
