Balance between insight and noise indicia v2Nick Barthram
Big data can provide valuable insights but also risks finding spurious correlations rather than true patterns. With large data sets, the chances of random correlations being identified increase faster than actual valid correlations. Additionally, humans are prone to confirmation bias and seeing patterns where none exist. To maximize insights from big data, it is important to create a statistically literate culture, collect comprehensive high quality data, set clear objectives, leverage algorithms to identify apparent correlations but rely on human judgment to validate findings are not spurious, test hypotheses, and regularly re-evaluate insights on new data.

The document provides an overview of key concepts for materials managers to consider when developing forecasting models. It discusses that forecasting involves both an art and a science, and effective models use a combination of qualitative and quantitative approaches. Models also take a top-down or bottom-up perspective. The document outlines four essential concepts for building forecasting models: combination of multiple methods, smoothing results, considering both time and trend factors. An effective model balances using past time period data with accounting for changing trends.

Decolonizing Universal Design for LearningFrederic Fovet
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).

The Science of Learning: implications for modern teachingDerek Wenmoth
Keynote presentation to the Educational Leaders hui Kōkiritia Marautanga held in Auckland on 26 June 2024. Provides a high level overview of the history and development of the science of learning, and implications for the design of learning in our modern schools and classrooms.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized the creation of images and videos, enabling the generation of highly realistic and imaginative visual content. Utilizing advanced techniques like Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) and neural style transfer, AI can transform simple sketches into detailed artwork or blend various styles into unique visual masterpieces. GANs, in particular, function by pitting two neural networks against each other, resulting in the production of remarkably lifelike images. AI's ability to analyze and learn from vast datasets allows it to create visuals that not only mimic human creativity but also push the boundaries of artistic expression, making it a powerful tool in digital media and entertainment industries.

about change and analyzing the content
An Insight is a raw and single point
observation of change drawn from reports,
articles, PDF’s, videos etc.
For instance, when you read a daily
newspaper you will regularly see new
events and discoveries being reported
Capturing the Insights systematically
underpins the scanning process
This is a mammoth task done manually,
but fortunately our system almost
completely automates the process
You need merely add Sources of interest to
you and our robot, Athena, will do the rest

Scanning allows you, and your colleagues
to ask ‘what if?’ questions by reading
embedded FORECASTS in Insights
- What if this happened in the world today?
- What does it mean for others?
- What does it mean for us?
- How should we respond and when?
Select those for further investigation and
deeper thinking that look as though they
will generate significant change in your
world and that of your stakeholders

You may find our Practical Foresight Guide
useful too, in quickly bringing yourself up
to speed with the underlying concepts of
and uses for strategic foresight.
NB: the Scanning section of the PFG needs
a complete re-write to take account of our
increasing AI capability but the guide is
still correct and Athena uses many of the
principles described there to do her work.

ATHENA is Shaping Tomorrow's robot
scanner, and your digital coach and
personal assistant
She uses artificial intelligence to
automatically find, extract and interpret
the implications drawn from articles,
reports and PowerPoints on the web
She also is increasingly helping you, our
members, clients and partners with advice
and help as you work
We are striving to make her perfect but we
know she makes interpretative mistakes.
That's why Shaping Tomorrow still needs
editors to clean up the Forecasts and
Implications after she has done her work.
But tests have shown that she works
>5,000+ times faster than using manual
methods. So, please cut her some slack if
what she tell you is good enough for you to
use and let us know if you see how we
could improve her service to you
