Okay, so hello everyone and welcome to today's online workshop. These are hosted by volunteers in the training team. And these are, I guess, official education hours by the WordPress project. So welcome to today's online workshop. Today's topic, we'll be talking about how to vet content topic ideas for the WordPress training team. So what is the WordPress training team, first of all? How many people know about the website Learn WordPress? Hopefully everybody's heard of it before. If you haven't, okay, yep, I see a few hands. If you haven't heard about Learn WordPress, this is the official education website for the WordPress project. So you can go to YouTube and find videos, you can find information on people's blogs. But this is where the WordPress project publishes different types of learning material. And we have four different types of content on Learn. There's an easy way to see it on this homepage. I'm just going to click in here. All right, and I want you to focus on the menu bar at the top here. So Learn has four different types of content. We have tutorials, we have online workshops, we have courses, and we have lesson plans. So tutorials are five to 10-minute short videos that talk about a specific topic. Online workshops are hour-long interactive sessions, like we're hosting right now, where people can ask questions, investigate new features of WordPress, test out new ideas, and meet other community members as well. Then courses, these are online courses where you can work through on your own. The Learn WordPress website will record your progress. So if you have to step away in the middle of a course, you can come back at the late today and continue with your learning. And then finally, lesson plans. Lesson plans are for teachers to use when they teach a classroom or a WordPress meetup group, different topics about WordPress. So the first three resources are aimed at learners of WordPress, and lesson plans are aimed at teachers of WordPress. This is an important part in the topic vetting process. So keep in mind we have three types of content for learners and one type for teachers. Now, for any of these content types, before content creator creates the content, the topic of the content is first vetted. And so that's what we'll be talking about today. So somebody has an idea. It'd be great if we had, say, an online workshop about building an online store. So somebody makes that suggestion to the training team. And then there are a group of people who look at that topic idea and flesh it out a bit. So making an online store is important, but what does that actually mean? What does the user have to learn throughout the process of the course in order to achieve that? And then they also assess whether that's a priority for the training team right now. So currently, the training team has like 100 topic ideas we had submitted. And so it's important to line those up in priority so we can work on the high priority content first. And so vetting content topic ideas involves fleshing out a topic idea in preparation for the content creator and assessing the priority. And until now, this process has been very limited in that you needed special GitHub access in order to vet the topic ideas. And so for about two years, there's basically been no one in the training team vetting topic ideas. Whereas in the last month, we finally updated the process and open it up. So now anyone in the WordPress community can vet topic ideas. And so I'm here excited to share with you today how you can also fit content topic ideas for the WordPress training team. All right, so that's what we're going to be talking about today. Any questions so far? Anything you want to clarify before we jump into the content? Who votes on or who makes the final determination as to what will be selected topic-wise? Yes, so we call the people who vet topic ideas subject matter experts. And anybody can become a subject matter expert. That's what I'll be introducing today. But in the training team, we also have a group of dedicated contributors. We call faculty members. So we have general subject matter experts, which anybody can become. And then we also have faculty subject matter experts. And these people have the special access on GitHub and they can make the final say. So a general contributor can say, I think this is high priority. And I think these should be the learning objectives and they can flesh the idea out. But that will get passed through a faculty person that will just make sure everything is correct. And on the other hand, because anybody can do this, we could have like experiments get involved. So we do have a faculty person who does the final check. But basically anybody can vet the content topic idea. Hopefully that answers your question. Great. All right. So for many of the training team processes, the most important document to refer to is the team handbook. Now I have this bookmarked in my browser. I'm going to send the link to everybody in the zoom chat here. And if you want to get involved with the training team, I highly recommend you bookmark this as well. The training team handbook has all the how to guides about the different processes in the training team. So I might sort of increase my forms a bit so it's a bit easier to see. Okay. So this is the handbook. If you're brand new to the training team, then I recommend this getting started link in the top menu bar. If you click on getting started, this will take you to the training teams onboarding program. And that will tell you how the training team communicates with each other. We actually have five different roles in the training team. And so we get the onboarding program will walk you through each of those roles and you'll even walk you to your first contribution. So you can choose the role that meets your interests and then make your first contribution. You'll get an idea of how the training team works. So if you're brand new to the training team, I highly recommend the onboarding program getting started. The handbook is what we're going to look at right now. And then the third link is the faculty members. So I mentioned these are the people who have dedicated certain amounts of time from their week to the training team. So by clicking here, you'll be able to find all the faculty members. And these would be the best people to ask questions if you have questions along the way. So yeah, that's just the menu at the top here. What we want to focus on today is vetting topic ideas. So if you look in the contents down the left, you'll see we have a lot of content. One of those is titled how to guides. So we'll open the how to guides and then further down we'll see how we use GitHub. We actually this this menu actually needs to be tidied up a little I think we have a lot of how to guides at the moment. But what we want to focus on today is how we use GitHub. And then underneath that you'll find vetting topic ideas. So we went to how to guides, how we use GitHub and then vetting topic ideas. And this document has a step by step guide so that anyone can fit topic ideas. So I've just dropped the link in the zoom chat to make sure we're all on the same page. All right. So let me just read this introduction. The first step to getting new quality content on learn WordPress is to vet the various content topic ideas shared by the WordPress community. These ideas can stem from personal interest to crowdsource consensus. But no matter how it comes to the training team, it will require vetting before this green link for content creation and publication on the learn WordPress website. So topic ideas can come from anyone. We have a form on the learn WordPress website that says submit your topic ideas here. So we can have anybody in the world submit topic ideas. And so the vetting process helps those ideas get into content creation. All right, subject matter experts and we call them SMEs are community members who utilize their expertise to vet submitted content topic ideas. In general, SMEs look to assess the ideas for relevance and priority. SMEs may also be contacted by content creators as the content is being developed, requesting additional information and or assistance to create accurate and informative content. So subject matter experts, there are two main aspects to their role. The first one is vetting topic ideas. And we say, and you'll notice, oops, you'll notice it says relevance and priority. So we look at topics to see their relevance and priority. And the other aspect of an SME is content creators may contact them as they create the content. So the way we work in the training team content creators don't have to be experts about the content they're making. Like in an extreme case, the content creator could be making developer focused content, but they themselves don't have to be developers. What they do is they work with the subject matter expert, the subject matter expert hands them the information, and then they turn that into a course or a tutorial or an online workshop. And so when subject matter experts vet a topic idea, they are leaving their name on a GitHub issue and saying, I have expertise in this area. And along the way, if you have questions, you can reach out to me and ask questions and I'd be happy to help. So the subject matter expert is vetting the topic ID, but they're also making themselves available to whoever comes along and makes the content in future to help them out as needed. And then the final paragraph outlined below the guideline are guiding processes for vetting content topic ideas alone WordPress. So under here we have the exact steps, which I'm going to demonstrate on the screen. Any questions so far, let me pause there quickly. Any questions about what the subject matter expert is. You're very clear. Thank you. All right, great great to hear. All right. Now, if you have a question and I don't stop talking you're free to leave it in the zoom chat as well. So let's let's continue down the document. So how a topic ideas submitted. So all new topic ideas are created as a GitHub issue on the learn GitHub repository. Using the topic ideas GitHub issue template. Once submitted issues are automatically added to the learn WordPress topic vetting project board. Issues are first triaged for spam duplicates etc by administrators before landing in the awaiting vetting column for SMEs. All right, so that's a lot of information so let me pause there. And the training team works on GitHub. So in order to vet content topic ideas, you need a GitHub account. But so this is the learn WordPress GitHub repository. And there's a link here to the topic ideas GitHub issue template. And you know what I did this workshop yesterday and realize this link was incorrect. So before I forget, let me quickly update this handbook page so we have the correct link there for everyone. So you'll see the handbook is also a WordPress website. There we go. All right, so coming back down here. So what people do is they use the topic ideas GitHub issue templates when you click on this link. You'll notice the training team has two, four, six, eight, nine different issue a GitHub issue templates people use. We have templates for bug report and we have templates for content feedback, etc. Down the bottom here we have topic idea. And so when somebody has a new topic idea, they will create a new issue here. So when they click that, they can type their topic title up here. There's a bit of an explanation here of what to do. And then they list topic description, audience, learning objectives, content type, WordPress version. And will you be creating this content or not and finally related resources. So somebody feels out as much information as they can and submit this as a new issue. Now what happens to that issue is that lands in the learn WordPress topic vetting project board. I'll open this project board. And this is what this project will look like. So we see somebody submitted a topic idea recently. So that is waiting in the awaiting triage column. And this column is for administrators. So they first check to make sure it's not a spam issue because we have had people submit spam in the past. If it's spam, we disclose it out. And we also make sure it's not duplicate. So learn WordPress already has hundreds of resources and sometimes people might suggest something that actually already exists. And so administrator just make sure everything's filled out. It's not spam. It's not duplicate. And once they've checked that, the issue comes into the awaiting vetting column. And this is where subject matter experts work. So we have 38 topic ideas at the moment waiting to be vetted by subject matter experts. Once a topic is vetted, it moves out of this project board into the content development project board. So then content creators can take that issue and create it. But sometimes issues don't get past the vetting process. For example, somebody may have suggested an outdated issue like that was true with WordPress two years ago, but it's not a WordPress feature now so we don't need it. Sometimes a topic is a good idea, but a very low priority for the training team at the moment. And so sometimes we just close topic ideas. And so we have a closed column here so we don't lose the ideas. The ideas are still here, but they just don't make it to the content creation project board. So you can see issues move from left to right. Now the other thing is, the awaiting vetting column has 38 items. And for a subject matter expert, you're not necessarily an expert in everything that you have specific areas you're an expert in, and finding the issues relevant to your expertise out of out of this whole column can be a bit daunting. And so what we've created are some tabs at the top here that split out the the second column into different areas of expertise. So for example, if a topic was submitted related to the related to accessibility, it would show up in the accessibility tab. At the moment we don't have accessibility topics. So this is blank, but if there was a topic about accessibility, it would come here. We also have block editor. So we see here, we have 10 issues related to the block editor. So if you have a bit of understanding about the block editor, you could triage any of these issues here. We have issues about contents actually writing content for a website. And then we have issues about contributions, so how you can contribute to the WordPress project, etc. So you'll see we have roughly 10 different areas of expertise and topics will fall under at least one of these expertise. And so as a as a subject matter expert. Rather than looking through this whole waiting vetting column, you can simply click through to the area of your expertise and bet one of the topics sitting there. All right. So that's an overview of GitHub and how the issue moves through GitHub. Any questions about that. Just to clarify, for the subject matter expert is that. So that's kind of a self selected thing as far as if you have a GitHub account you just click on what you feel comfortable in and can drop. Hey, I know about this if you want feedback or etc. Yep. Yes, exactly. I do recommend you go through the onboarding program, we have the onboarding program splits into five onboarding paths. And we have a path for, for example, content creators, we have a path for content translators, and we also have a path for subject matter experts. So if you take the onboarding program first. I'll give you the onboarding is about 30 to 60 minutes, but they'll give an overview of your area of expertise. And basically once you've done that, you can jump right into GitHub and just start betting topic items. Got it. Thanks. Yep. All right, so that's an overview of GitHub. So now let's come down to the actual triaging steps. So we have here, I'm back to the main handbook page, the betting topic ideas handbook page. And then, okay, topic items below is the list of details on the topic idea submission. So we had a look at that before in the GitHub issue, whoever submits the idea will fill out as much of this as possible. The next the section says topic idea triaging performed by admins. So, whoops. That was, let's see, moving issues from here to here. In order to move issues between columns, you need that special GitHub access and not every contributor has that so that is reserved for faculty administrators so you can basically just ignore the items here and administrator will triage that at some point or another. So we'll skip all that. And now finally, betting topic ideas. So this is the main focus of today. All right. It can sometimes be difficult to assess topic ideas on an individual level. So don't hesitate to reach out to faculty, faculty, subject matter experts for a second opinion along the way. You can do so by peeing the faculty SME group in the training slack channel. So I mentioned before we have the faculty program and this is a dedicated group of contributors who have given certain amounts of time from their week to the training team. While you're vetting a topic if you have questions, feel free to ping the faculty subject matter experts in slack. So slack is the tool the training team uses to communicate. And you can ping individual faculty members as well. But we recommend using this slack call word. So if you type at faculty hyphen SME, this will ping all the faculty members in the training team at once. And then anybody who's online will be able to get to you. So if you ping one person and they're on vacation for 10 days, you might not hear from them for a while. But if you ping the whole faculty subject matter expert group, then anybody who's online will be able to answer your questions for you. So just hopefully that puts you at ease. Like if you start on this process and get stuck at any way in the process, there is a group of faculty people who can help you with that. Yep. Aileen are you talking about this link vetting topic ideas. Yes, please. All right. Yep. So I've just sent you the link to this section of the handle, the vetting topic ideas section. Perfect. Thank you. Yep. All right, now steps to vet topic ideas. So this is a six step process. And I'm going to pick up an issue right now and actually work through the steps for you. The step one, open one of the topic views link below to vet ideas related to that topic. So we have different links and activity block editor content, etc. And these connect to the tabs at the top of the guitar board here. So as long as you bookmark the handbook page, you can quickly access each of these items. So let me see what am I going to work on today what's contribution. Content. Frequently used blocks review the common blocks and how these are often the most suggested. You might as well look at this issue. All right, I'll open this up, and I will be vetting this one today. So that was step one. Open an issue, then copy paste the following text into the comment. This will act as your guide as you vet the topic. What you do is you just copy all of that. And then I come over here and in a new comment I paste that. And this will act as my guide as I vet this topic. So what does the checklist have it says, first of all priority, either high, medium or low. So I decide a priority. And then feedback regarding the topic description feedback regarding the learning objectives and any other feedback. And then finally related resources. If you know of other related resources that would assist in creating this content, listen below. All right. Well step two was copying that across step three. Take note of what content type this is a suggestion for. This should be listed in the issue body in the issue title and added as a label. So someone might be suggesting a new content type for an existing piece of content. And that is okay. Assess whether the content type would make sense for the topic being suggested. All right, so we come over here. And at the top, maybe I should increase the font size here a bit more. All right. So at the top you'll see this is frequently used blocks lesson plan. So at the beginning of this session I said we have four different content types on learn lesson plans are aimed at teachers who teach a classroom of users. So this is a lesson plan for teachers teaching about frequently used blocks. So just keep that in mind. So we're making this for teachers. So you'll see the audience. So the topic description was review the common blocks and how these are often the most suggested. So it's talking about the block suggestions in the block editor. I guess audiences users learning objectives. Okay, this person didn't suggest it didn't submit any learning objectives. So we'll need to fill that out. Content type is lesson plan. WordPress version optional. We'll be creating this content. Yes or no, it doesn't say. All right. So that gives us an overview of what this idea is about. Next step for assess the relevance of the issue and assign our priority. So if an idea is not relevant at a brief comment describing your reasoning and press close the issue so you can just close an issue. If you feel like this is just not relevant like maybe it's not a WordPress topic. Or maybe it's just nobody's going to need that content. In that case we can just close the issue. If an idea is relevant right either high, medium or low in your comment. A relevant topic. So how do you decide relevance a relevant topic is timely with the latest releases up to date with latest practices and follows the team's promotional guidelines and GP of best practices. Priorities assessed by whether or not the topic is critical to something in the latest release hits on the needs analysis trend or fixes gap. In previously published foundational content. So we talk about relevance and priority here. So if this is something related to the most recent WordPress release. That is a very relevant topic. Or if it's talking about recent practices. That's a relevant topic as well. In this case, frequently use the blocks. Isn't necessarily tied to the recent WordPress release. And it isn't necessarily tied to like best practices either. So in my mind this is going to give us a lower priority. And we also look down here priorities assessed by whether or not the topic is critical. This topic isn't really critical. People don't need to know about the most used blocks in order to use WordPress. Does it fix the gap in previously published foundational content. Now, if you're familiar with the loan WordPress website you'll start to get an idea of what content we're missing. So if you're not sure here you can just skip that. But overall, I'm going to say this topic is is good. But the priority is low because it's not necessary for somebody to be able to use WordPress. So what I would do is I would just type low. All right. Anton asked, do you give one rating on high, medium, low? Yeah. Okay. So we look at relevance and priority to choose one rating. So that was step four. And would you believe this handbook page has two step forwards? Let me quickly update that as well at the moment before we forget. I think topical is one, two, three, four. So this item should be starting at five. There we go. All right. So come back down here. So we just did this. We just assigned the priority step four. So next we'll come to step five. Assess the submitted details of the topic and provide feedback. See also how to finalize description and objectives. So the next point is the feedback. We got feedback regarding the topic description feedback regarding the learning objectives and any other feedback. So to be honest, this topic didn't have a lot of description like review the common blocks and how these are often the most suggested. There isn't a lot of detail here. So the subject matter expert has two options. The first one is to send the issue back to the person who submitted it and say, could you please add a little bit more detail so we can bet this better? Or the second option is for the subject matter expert to just go ahead and flesh out the description and learning objectives a bit more. I'm going to take that path so you can see how I decide learning objectives in that. But if it really, if you feel that there just really isn't enough information here, you can send the issue back and ask the submitter for more information. Now I will say in this particular case, this says Courtney has submitted the issue, but I know it isn't Courtney. So the training team used to use a different software to manage our topics, topic submissions called Trello and Courtney imported all the data from Trello into GitHub. So that's why her name comes up on a lot of topic ideas. Courtney has made a lot of suggestions, but she isn't the one who submitted every single thing. So I would just want to clarify that the fact this issue doesn't have a lot of information isn't necessarily a bad sign about Courtney. It's just what was submitted years ago and Courtney imported that into GitHub. All right, so topic distribution review the common blogs and how these are often the most suggested. I'm going to take a bit of creative liberty here and frequently use blocks. I'm going to imagine we're talking about a casual blogger. And so a casual blogger is probably going to be using the paragraph block, heading block, maybe image blocks. And I'm wondering if like using those blocks from an accessibility and SEO perspective could be an interesting topic to introduce here. So frequently used blocks are like heading, but maybe teaching how to nest heading blocks is something new users could benefit from. Or if we're using image blocks, then the importance of adding alternative text, et cetera, could be something we could talk about here. Another block, frequently used blocks, like the column block, those layout related blocks could be something a new user would benefit from learning from. So I'm starting to form a thought here we can talk about accessibility and SEO when using blocks and also maybe the layout related things. So the details of the description feedback and the description. Let's develop this content with two focuses. And then I might say this ability SEO considerations should make when using any image, et cetera. And the second one is introduce different layout grouping related blocks and how they can be used. All right, so I'm sort of just fleshing out the description a bit more of what this lesson is going to be talking about. And next feedback regarding the learning objectives. So this didn't have any learning objectives so we can finalize that for this issue. And coming back to the handbook you'll see there's a link how to finalize the description and objectives. This is a pretty good page it's short it's short but it gives you an idea of what a learning objectives in a learning objective is. So learning objectives must contain four parts. An audience. Who are we talking about behavior. What is the new knowledge skill or attitude you hope to achieve condition. What are the circumstances under which they will demonstrate the behavior and agree how well or how often will they demonstrate the behavior. That's an ABCD model. And these should be specific measurable attainable and time bound. So, let's say in this case we're talking about users we know the audience is users of people who belong or create websites. What skill do we want them to achieve so we can write two or three learning objectives. And we were talking about accessibility in SEL consideration so that's a skill we want them to achieve. What are the circumstances under which I demonstrate the behavior I'm going to say we want them to demonstrate this behavior when they write content. And so putting all that together. Let me see if I can draft our first learning objective. The users will be able to use headings. We'll be able to nest headings appropriately when writing content. We'll be able to use we're able to let's say we're talking about frequently use blocks or really be able to use the headings locks appropriately when writing content, considering accessibility and SEO best practices. So, this is very, we're trying to make this as specific as possible so who, when, what are they going to do how they're going to achieve that so be able to use any box so let's let's make this a bit more specific. We'll be able to write content with headings. Place appropriate. Throughout considering user to write content with headings, hitting blocks place to probably throughout considering SEO best practices alright that looks like a pretty good objective to me. And the second objective we talked about layout and grouping related blocks so. I think the columns block is something people might be up might be interested in. And the next one is like grouping and you placing things in a row, etc. So, let's see what is something specific we want people to achieve with these layout blocks and users will. Describe recall recognize skills apply modify construct. Construct looks good and pretty. So I'm using the words here sort of brainstorming assistance. So let's see books. Be able to construct pages that include a columns block and learn. I would construct pages that include columns block columns, a columns block. So please include columns block. If anybody has ideas here, feel free to help me out. I'm being watched by half a dozen people which is getting me nervous. How about we talk about how the columns block behaves differently on mobile and desktop and people would still be able to build a page with that in consideration. So you just unmuted. What about are there any kind of add ons. I'm not. I don't have a lot of word word press experience. So what is my terminologies off. Let me know. Is there anything that they could add for SEO is that Yoast or something like that or. Yeah, we couldn't do that. To embellish that, so to speak. Yeah, to build on that. So this is like on page SEO things that you could do. And then do you want to expand to something that you could add to the site that could help once you get your headers. What about running like wave wave checks. You know, those accessibility checks using those tools. Can you say something about that here. Yeah, I'm, I'm, I want to keep in mind the topic here was about frequent years blocks. Okay, I'm sorry. No, I did. Yeah, no, I mean, the ideas you have a good for example if the resource was about SEO accessibility. I think for your topic and I didn't know was what. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I just thought something else frequently used block might be the navigation block that one is a bit intricate and so that might be something good to bring up. Anton just left a comment to since users will be able to create a variety of responsive layouts using the columns and roblox and different trade between the two. You know what, I love that. So I am going to copy that and pay sending to get that I okay if I use that as is. Yep. So users will be able to create a variety of responsive layout using the columns and roblox and differentiate between the two. I think that's really good. And I'm going to add one more than navigation block because I think that one is another frequently used block we can talk about so. User users will be able to create a new navigation menu in the navigation block. And other great new navigation and navigation block and position that or add back to the header of their of TTIR site. All right, so let me just switch that to previous it's been easier to read. So feedback and learning objectives so feedback. As there were no learning objectives submitted. Let's use these. All right, so users will be able to write content with heading blocks placed appropriately throughout considering accessibility and as your best practices. Users will be able to create a variety of responsive layouts using the columns and roblox and differentiate between two. And users will be able to create a new navigation menu in the navigation blog and add that to the header of their site. I think we have anything to be said about images. Oh yeah, I mentioned that didn't I. So, hitting blocks. Users will understand the importance of out ticks on images and know where they can edit on their site. How does that look. Yep. I think that looks pretty good. So any other feedback. We're covering a lot of ground in this content. Try and keep trying keep this to an overview. So this was a lesson plan for teachers and so if you start like diving into each of these as you said we can start talking about plugins and all that and they can I think you can get quite in depth. So just a piece of feedback we're covering a little ground in this content try and keep this to an overview and share related resources for students as needed. Can you get an exercise like a minor exercise based on this. Do you do that like for teaching plans say okay. With this information. I'm a content creator would then take this and then build out the lesson plan and the activity and the questions and that. If you have ideas, feel free to leave those here. But it's not a necessary part of the topic vetting process. Okay, okay, sorry. No, no, no, no, no problem. The other thing you can do is, for example, a subject matter expert can also become a content creator. So if you look in the top issue here you'll see it says will you be creating this content so whoever submits an issue can actually raise their hand and say once it's better I would like to make this. In this case we don't have anybody who's raised their hand yet. And so if you really like this issue and you think you can make it. You can leave an extra comment at the bottom so you better that you've added it as an SME. And then at the bottom you could say, I'd also like to create this or something and then we can assign the issue to you. So people can have more than one role. All right. So we were just doing step five, assess the submitted details of the topic and provide feedback. Number six, add links to any other related resource you think will assist the content creator when creating this content. So you see here related resources. Now, you can add whatever you want to. For example, if you've seen a YouTube video that talks about a very similar topic. You can leave a link to that YouTube video and then the content creator can reference that when they make the content. Or like if you've seen an article on let's say WP beginner or like another website like that, you can reference that. Or if there's like documentation official WordPress documentation that's related. We can mention that. So really anything that would help the content creator. You can list. Yeah. So just, just one thing. Yep. Navigation block demo the other day would you could we and it's going to be on WordPress TV I think Courtney posted that could could we put a link to that. Yep. Let me have a look. So this is WordPress dot TV. And something about the navigation block. Yeah. Like this. There it is. It's a bug craft. Yeah. Yep. So we can take that. And the content creator may watch this and add it to their content or they might like a related resource to the content when they share when they create it. So let's see. So you drop the link like that. So you can spend a bit more time on that if you want for the sake of this workshop I'm going to start wrapping up. But that was step six and any other links. And then number seven, the final step. Once you've submitted your comments ping faculty admin in the training site panel, asking them to process the issue for you and move it to the content developer project board. All right so. That's it. We've we've we've added this topic so we'll press comment. All right. And then what we want to do is we want to move this issue from the topic betting project board into the content creating project board and only faculty have the access to do that. So what you would do is you would go to the training slack channel. And this time we're pinging faculty admin. So, I think up here there was a comment about pinging faculty SME if you get stuck with the topic betting process down here you can ping faculty admin. And then admin with availability will be able to move the issue for you. So we even have a message you can use. Hi faculty admin I've read that the topic on this GitHub issue link to GitHub issue. Could you process this issue and move it to the content development project board please. Thanks. I am a faculty admin and I have access to do this so I will just show you what an admin would do. But what an admin would do. Or actually, for the sake of admin who might be watching this video. Let me just show you what the guide says so we actually have a guide here for faculty admin about moving better topics to the content development project board. So the steps are. Label and move topic ideas so ensure all details have been filled in either by the issue the topic submitter or in the comments by the SME. So the admin would check this you would come down here and check that yep this all looks good. All right. And at least one each of the following labels priority audience experience level and version. So what an admin would do is they would look at what the SME wrote down here and the SME said low priority. The admin would go okay so the priority is low. And then an audience so audience was already added here. Experience level experience level was already added as well WordPress version isn't relevant. So all the labels are added. Step three, remove the needs subject matter expert label. So I will remove that. And basically, by me commenting on this issue here. I've told whoever content creator comes along and pick this up that I'm a subject matter expert they can ask questions if they get stuck as they make the content. So commenting is sort of leaving your name there for them to contact you again in future if needed. And then move the issue from learn WordPress topic vetting to learn WordPress content development. So I will move this. So projects I will move it from topic vetting to content development and the status is ready to create. So now a content creator and come along and create this content based on the information we provided. And then finally step five copy paste one of the following as a comment to the issue listing next steps. So when the content creator comes along we want them to have clear next steps as to what to do. And so in this case it was a lesson plan. So I will copy this message here. I will paste that down here. And the comment says this topic is ready to be created please follow the handbook page lesson plans for next steps. And now ready for a content creator to create. All right so those final steps for faculty administrators watching this recording later. But that is an overview of how topic topics created as a GitHub issue, how they move through the flow, how a subject matter expert method and how it's finally sent to the content development project board. Any questions about any of that. So it seems pretty proactive then it's like you grab what you want to work on it's not assigned to you. Correct, but subject matter experts, anybody can just jump in and work on the issue. Okay. Yeah, I want to create content I have to wait until it's in a certain pipe, and then pick it up, like the last piece where you said where it would go. Yeah. So yeah this this would be another totally different online workshop but just to give you a quick glimpse. The training team has a learn WP content development project. So we were looking at the topic vetting project board. If you go to the content development project board this is where content creators generally work. And you'll see here we have 94 issues ready to create. So content creator could pick up any of these issues, which have all been vetted and start working on that. And then these go to draft in progress review in progress and then publish the call so this goes through like a similar process, which is all documented in the handbook, but would be another online workshop. Okay, thank you. Yep. And then I have a question about John can be a topic. Like if something comes up in a workshop, and I'll give you an example from a couple of times ago. Someone, they mentioned that okay there, though, recording will be on, you know, on WordPress TV, and we'll add the captioning. It's like, well, how do you add the captioning. So it's not really WordPress, it could be for anything it's about video but it was came up in a WordPress meetup so would that be eligible to be worked on, or Yep. Very good question. In the trading team, if something is related to WordPress even remotely, then that is a good topic to suggest. So for example, WordPress TV is a WordPress project. And so, in videos that go on to WordPress TV need to be subtitled. And so an online workshop on how to subtitle videos would be totally acceptable. And actually I would say it's like a medium or high priority item because it's it's a very necessary part of the training processes. So, yes. Yeah, to give you another example. I have done online workshops on, for example, domains or like web servers. And these aren't specifically tied to WordPress like you could use non WordPress content management systems, and you would still need a domain you'd still need a web server. But they are necessary for people wanting to build out WordPress websites like knowledge about domain is still important. So although WordPress doesn't come up even once in that presentation. It's still relevant to WordPress and therefore it's a content the training team can work on. So it just needs to be loosely connected to WordPress and it would still be okay. All right. Well, we're at the top of the hour. So thank you everybody for coming and more than anything do come back topic ideas and that was what the session was all about but hopefully after watching this presentation you are now competent enough to go ahead and try betting some content topic ideas. Again, if you have questions, you can reach out to faculty in the training slack channel at any time and people can help you. And so yeah, thank you very much for attending. Thank you. Have a good night. Yep. Morning. And thank you Tracy for, yeah. And thank you Tracy for co hosting. Thank you, Tracy. Anytime. Almost. Have fun on the beach.


Thank you, Luca. Hi, everyone. Hello. All right. Let's do it after this thorough introduction. I need to try and not be in the way of the projector. It's going to be hard because I, like, walk all around the line. But to start things, hi. I am Petia. Luca already said in short, I work a lot and I do a lot of things. I am a project manager for a company called Human Made who does enterprise WordPress development where an agency and a product company that works for clients, big enterprise clients, big media, but also creates their own products. I'm also a WordPress contributor. I'm involved with the polyglots team and with the community team, I help translate WordPress to Bulgarian and I also help all the other translators from all over the world get started, keep going, localize WordPress, bring it to more people. It's something that I'm very, very proud of. I also have the privilege to be a lead organizer of WorkCamp Europe this year, alongside 20 other amazing, amazing people, including Sartoni. And if you have a ticket for WorkCamp Europe, we'll see you then. And if you don't, it's sold out, so sorry, next year. Yeah. All right. So about 14 months ago, like a year ago, but 14 months ago, I became location independent, which means I started working for a distributed company. I got hired by Human Made and I became a part of a company that employs 30 people in three... What? Yeah? Do you hear me okay now? Okay. So 30 people all over the world, clients all over the world, all completely remote. We don't have an office anywhere, so that means that we are able to work from anywhere. And in the past 14 months, this is what happened to me. I've been to 21, I've worked from 21 countries. I gave 12 conference talks. I've been in three continents. I launched nine projects with Human Made, and I organized four events, including WordPress events and community events. And I sent, as of this morning, 100,000 to 23, 324, whatever, sorry, yeah, that number of messages on Slack. And for the last 14 months, I've been thinking about what is remote working and what my takeaways are from the past year. And there's one thing that I realized. It was an epiphany that came to me about two weeks ago, and this is my biggest takeaway. And it's this one. My mom makes the best chicken soup in the whole world. It's like there's no chicken soup in the whole world that can match my mom. It's like, sorry, I know.  And this talk is completely useless. I will actually, apart from that, I will actually try and share a couple of things about communication in a remote environment and also productivity and happiness, because that's what everybody assumes remote working is, being able to work from everywhere, making up your own hours, right? Like, why not be happy? So let's start with communication and the first takeaway. When communicating online, this is like the bottom line always. Set expectations about what you're going to do in writing and then meet them. If you're not good at setting expectations, get better, because if you're not setting expectations right, you're going to fail at remote working. In a remote environment, we exchange the office with a lot of tools. We use Slack and different chat channels for live communication. We use Zoom and Skype for video calls. We use Trello. It's one of the tools that we use to keep track of projects and clients and asynchronous communication is a very, very important thing. But communication, they say, in a remote environment, isn't oxygen.  So you have to be careful about not overdoing everything when communicating online. I know I'm being a little vague and hopefully I can get a little detail, but I don't have much time, so I'll go through this and if you have specific questions, ask me later. Too much oxygen can kill you mean that over communicating in a remote environment can also mean burning out and also mean you not getting away from your computer for 20 plus hours. Before I get back to that, I'm going to talk a little bit about written communication. When you're not in person, when you're not face to face with a person that you want that you want to talk to, there are a lot of things that get missed. There is just the written communication, the language and sometimes people have different backgrounds and they have different levels of mastery of the language. So in written communication, especially across multicultural environments, this is what I always do.  They are being aggressive, they are being passive aggressive, something they said is offending you. It's probably not what you're thinking. Assumptions are very, very wrong in a remote environment when communicating and writing. So what I always try to do is strip all of the words that seem harmful or offensive to me and try to get what this person is trying to say. Just strip all the context, all the cultural biases and try to think what is this person saying? I have a problem, I cannot do this. Even if you assume by what they are saying, it's your fault that I cannot do this. What they are actually saying is I cannot do this, help me. It's almost never personal. It's almost never about you. It's always about their frustration and their inability to accomplish something and you being one of the obstacles. It's not personal, don't take it personal. And when in doubt, this is the rule of thumb. Just be nice. There's one universal language and it's kindness. Kindness is as a facial expression can be seen but kindness in writing needs to be specifically expressed. It needs to be there, visible. Think instead of like ask instead of demanding, for example. Ask for more clarification. If you're not absolutely sure a person means what they mean, put your assumption in writing and then finish the sentence with correct question mark. If they confirm, that's what they meant. If they don't, you keep going until you understand what the other person means and what they're saying. And this is something I've been working on for 33 years. Don't take yourself too seriously. You're usually getting offended because you're thinking, oh, I put so much work into this. I spent so many hours and what is this person now doing? They're telling me that this is not enough. It's my fault. Something is happening or something like that. Oh. You're just one person, like the other person on the other side on a computer. Don't think about what you've done and what you deserve and what you don't deserve. Think about the end call. This person is trying to tell you something. Try to understand what it is. Rule number one in a remote environment. Document everything. In Human Made, at Human Made we use internal blogs for literally everything that goes on in client projects and in products. We need to document every meeting. We need to have notes from every call. Everything that develops on a project gets put into writing. Otherwise, somebody along the line will miss it. Somebody will miss that something happened on a project. And we use a tool called P2. And P2 is like a blog that you can write on from the front end. And P2 is religion. It's like, you know, it's state of mind. It's a way of life. So you forgot to take notes at that last meeting in a remote environment. That's failure. All right. Productivity. There's a lot to be said here. I can talk for two hours about how to be productive in a remote environment. But it comes down to this. Choose your battles. Set goals. There's always a lot to do. There's always a lot to do. Choose your battles. Set goals the night before or in the morning. And then stick to them. Stick to those goals. If something urgent pops up and in a remote environment, something urgent always pops up, just exchange one thing with the other. Don't just add it to the queue. But choose your battles and stick to the goals that you set.  You will not do it well or do it in a way that doesn't make you happy. And then learn what you're like, try to monitor yourself and optimize your processes. This is a tool called rescue time that I use to monitor all the websites and all the tools that I use on my day-to-day basis. And what I do is I set categories and some categories as productive and other categories as less productive. For example, my development work, my presentation writing, and different tools that require that are set as very productive. And there are other activities like Slack, for example. Sometimes it's very productive because my role is to communicate. But sometimes it's not that productive because it's also a distraction. And I iterate my categories and change what is productive and less productive on a weekly basis so that I can then go back and see how my day went, sorry. And I can see that I spent a lot of time on social media or I spent a lot more time on Slack that I anticipated. There are ways to set goals and it's like a great thing, a great tool you can use to iterate on your process so that you can be more productive. And then in a remote company, always be prepared for offline. It's going to happen. Wi-Fi will fail somewhere, your 3G card in a foreign country won't work. Be prepared for offline. Have tasks in mind that you can do while you're not connected to the internet. Even if you're a developer, you can sync up GitHub and work on your local environment. If you're a writer or a marketer, you can work on strategy and planning. There's always something to do. Never let obstacles be in the way of you working. Otherwise, if you're traveling all the time, there's always going to be something.  Plan for these things. Plan for complete work hours like at least five or six productive hours a day, even if you're going to be in transit. Otherwise, you'll fail. And last but not least, remote working is not what you imagine. If you work in a remote environment, you probably know that there are several very, very, very big issues. One of these issues is I work in a company that has employees in three continents. This means that when the UK goes to bed, Australia comes online. And sometimes I have projects with clients that are in Europe but with Australian developers. And sometimes I have projects with clients that are in Canada with European developers. And that means that if I don't force myself to stop, I can literally work 20 hours because there's always going to be something to do. And this is a huge problem in remote environment that needs addressing very, very strictly. Otherwise, it gets overlooked. And what happens in human made a lot and we're trying to fight it right now is people get, like, not intentionally. You just get pulled into it. You just work too much. And burnout is real. And it's a real problem because it affects productivity. After 10 hours in front of the computer, even if you have to do something, your productivity levels are already like at 50%. So it's not good for you. It's not good for the company. And it has to be taken seriously. Even if we laugh about it, it has to be taken seriously. In human made, we make sure we take enough holiday. And also, we share our travel plans. And we make sure that they don't interfere with anyone else's. And remote doesn't mean necessarily working alone. What we usually do is just get together, often, plan it. It's not on company time. It's not, you know, there are enough conferences, there are enough places you can go where you can meet your colleagues, meet other people. And we did it last year. It was great. Called the day time road trip. We went to four work camps, passed through seven countries in one car, four colleagues, there are people coming and going. It was really, really fun. And we also got a chance to give back to the community, which was like an additional perk. So there are two things about location independence. There is a myth and there is the reality.  The reality is that you have to be badass, hard at work all the time, and be very motivated and very disciplined to make it work. Otherwise, you'll fail. So to sum up and go back to my big takeaway from the last 14 months, the best thing about being able to work from anywhere is eventually going home. You just appreciate it on a whole different level.  So yeah, it's about it. Thank you. We have time for one question, which I'm not going to ask because I'm a polite person. I'm kidding. I just, I'm just happy to be the failed guy because I'm good at that. That's the question there. I need to take a picture of that. I will. Hi, I was wondering what's your take on what it's like to be location independent when you have a family? Because this has been something on my mind for quite some time. I have two kids and they're growing up and we're actually thinking of becoming location independent, but because of their ties to schools and their community and so on, do you think that's feasible or do you think that location independence is actually limited to a childless, I don't know? I think the way I do it, it's probably better to not have kids because you're going to get killed by your partner or whoever you're raising your kids with. But I can give you two examples of colleagues and friends of mine that are doing location independence in their own way with families. One is, one couple is actually traveling along with their kid. So he's very little still. So until they start school, it's actually easier. But then the more interesting thing is what my friend Paolo does, where he moves his family every few years to a new location and it's beautiful. Like he said to me once, when my kids are 18, they will have lived in five different countries. They will speak four different languages and this is my legacy to them. This is what I can give them that no school can teach them. They will be able to appreciate differences between cultures. They will have lived in different ones being integrated into one. So if you think about it, maybe moving around every year or so is not ideal, but it's doable and there are people doing it just because they're dedicated to kind of bringing that kind of legacy to their kids. And he is location independent. His wife doesn't work, but they still manage to spend time together and they move around. They've been to a lot of places. So this is a way that you can do it with a family, I believe. Thank you very much.


COVID-19 has affected Brazil in many ways, but the impact is bigger among vulnerable people. Zika helped us a lot in the past and now again because we structure a research network of social scientists. And also in few crews, we coordinated a very complex response during Zika outbreak. And now we are using that experience to support us, to help us. But COVID-19 is completely different. Favelas are areas of exclusion. Vitamins of a kind of social and economic and political process of vulnerableization. So without sanitation, without clean water, living in many people in the same room, in the same bed. Many of them without bathroom and access to water. In the critical moment of the COVID-19, the impact is immense. There are many initiatives to try to respond to it. One of them is COVID in Favelas. We are gathering scientists, social scientists, health authorities to find and to dialogue to fit strategies to respond in an adequate way to these kind of territories. To guarantee the human rights, to improve equity and to avoid misinformation and stigmatization. Our intention here is to protect the lives. We can build a new world, a better world. The whole world needs very strong and universal health systems as a right, not as a commodity.


three days of the draft all these people right getting selected the teams I was none of those guys I was the guy that came after the draft was over I say I took the stairs right I climbed my way and been started for the past three years and dominating the league ever since so it came down to just the things you couldn't measure which is my heart my mentality and the intensity I bring to everything that I do your story is probably one of the better success stories in the NFL one of the most interesting because it's somebody who wasn't drafted somebody who really wasn't he wasn't really on the board for a lot of teams you had an incredible pro day and really got your opportunity after the draft in with the Chargers so there's been a little something going on right now and I mean I would agree I think you're in a position right now to wear this man you got to get paid hey this man you have


The president of O'Hanei Zendigo, Immanuel Iwaian, has again appealed to the president, Mohammed Buhari, to release the leader of the indigenous people of Biafra, iPop, Namdi Kano. He made the appeal while speaking at the flag of the dredging of Okuta Lake Orisha River in the most state, which was witnessed by the vice president, Yemo Shibajo. Wanyu pleaded with president Buhari to release Namdi Kano before he leaves office on May the 29th, as ebos are not sitting because they are everywhere and would not leave their investment. The iPop leader has been in custody of the Department of State Services, the SS, since it was brought back from Kenya in June 19, 2021. Our vice president tells our brother, our son, Buhari, that O'Hanei Zendigo, the other 60 million ebos request that he should release Namdi Kano. He should release Namdi Kano. We don't see ebos are not sitting. I don't see why anybody should say ebos are sitting. Ebos are everywhere. We have investments. Are we going to leave our investments? So, please, I am passing this message to him because he is my president in Nigeria. But in the O'Hanei Zendigo, he has been honored by us and he is a member, so he is my subject there. I am now telling him that Namdi Kano should be released before he departs. We are going to be very grateful. Hello. Hope you enjoyed the news.

There you are. This is what you're going to want to do to plan out your YouTube channel for success this year. I created a template for you completely customized to running a YouTube channel. First thing you'll be greeted with as you view this template is this grand that YouTube template. The first thing I want you to go for is this direction document right here on the left. Because as per our guide here, the first thing we're gonna be looking at for planning your channel this year is the direction you're going to take. Which is why you wanna start with these things, your brand and why. I have two questions I want you to answer first. What do you want YouTube to do for you or your business and insert your answer here? And then the second question is what do you want to do with YouTube? These are the two questions that I feel are overlooked dramatically by almost every YouTube creator. Because in most cases we think, hey, I wanna get to the money faster, I wanna, it's all about this topic or this game or this cooking or whatever we think the topic of the channel is. But we don't necessarily pause to ask ourselves, what do I actually want it to do for me and what do I want to do with YouTube?

Following any shipwreck under conditions resembling an SCP-1174-1 incident, the Foundation is to locate the wreckage as soon as possible, and retrieve any instances of SCP-1174-2 found in the vicinity where containment or termination is necessary. All available information about the wreck vessel is to be catalogued for use in identifying potential new instances of SCP-1174-1. The Foundation is to monitor emergency calls and social networking for any indication of civilian encounters with SCP-1174-2. Any person reporting an SCP-1174-2 sighting is to be detained, debriefed, and treated with Class-B amnestics. Any dead SCP-1174-2 instances found to float or washing ashore are to be acquired by the Foundation and destroyed as soon as possible. Authorizations granted to Employee Emergency Procedure 248 October Bravo in the case of an information leak regarding SCP-1174-2. Captured instances of SCP-1174-2 are to be housed in modified containment cells, built halfway with fresh water at a temperature of 2 degrees Celsius, and fed standard containing rations twice per day. Instances of SCP-1174-2 capable of communication may be granted euthanasia at their request following a full debriefing. Description SCP-1174 is a localized phenomenon occurring within Lake Superior along the border between the United States and Canada, consisting of visual hallucinations of ships appearing during periods of inclement weather. Descended SCP-1174-1 An unknown number of anomalous human beings associated with ship sinking after encountering SCP-1174-1. Descended SCP-1174-2 Instances of SCP-1174-1 are capable of manifesting between October 1st and November 30th of each year. These manifestations of SCP-1174-1 have occurred during November which cyclone conditions producing rain or snow and wind in excess of 95 km per hour. However, SCP-1174-1 can manifest at any time during the active season when cloud cover and high winds are present. Instances of SCP-1174-1 are capable of moving at rates commensurate to that of the ship it resembles and will appear and travel a no discernable heading along Lake Superior until such a time as weather conditions improve, whereupon SCP-1174-1 will vanish. At no case has any instance of SCP-1174-1 appeared in or traveled to any area less than approximately 5 km from the American or Canadian mainland. There are currently 7 known instances of SCP-1174-1, 5 of the 7 have been conclusively identified at resembling vessels known to have been sunk in Lake Superior during SCP-1174-1's active season. SCP-1174-1-1 A fully-rigged wooden warship of late 18th century construction, approximately 45 meters in length, flying the naval ensign of the United Kingdom, identity unknown. SCP-1174-1-2 A wooden schooner of mid-19th century construction, approximately 60 meters in length, identified as Lucerne, an ore carrier sunk in 1886. SCP-1174-1-3 A wooden steamship of late 19th century construction, approximately 75 meters in length, identified as the Bannockburn, a freighter sunk in 1902. SCP-1174-1-4 A steel-hulled, steam-powered warship of early 20th century construction, approximately 40 meters in length, identified as Sarasols, a French navy minesweeper lost under unknown circumstances in 1918. SCP-1174-1-5 A steel-hulled steam-ship of early 20th century construction, approximately 75 meters in length, identity unknown. SCP-1174-1-6 A steel-hulled, oil-burning cargo ship of mid-20th century construction, approximately 220 meters in length, identified as Edmund Fitzgerald, a freighter sunk in 1975. SCP-1174-1-7 A steel-hulled diesel engine patrol boat of early 21st century construction, approximately 27 meters in length, identified as SCP-S Irvine, a foundation vessel sunk while investigating SCP-1174-1-6 in 2007. Testing has indicated that all instances of SCP-1174-1 are visual hallucinations and do not exist as corporeal entities. SCP-1174-1 vessels do not appear on radar or infrared imaging. It attempts to fire upon them have resulted in armament passing through the vessel without causing damage. Upon coming into visual range of any vessel traveling through Lake Superior, SCP-1174-1 will attempt to establish communication by means appropriate to the period and capabilities of the vessel appearing, including use of flags, signal lights, morse code, firing of flares, and radio. In all cases where contact is made, SCP-1174-1 will claim to be in immediate danger of sinking and will request that the vessel approach immediately to assist in evacuating its crew. In radio communication, the voice transmitted from SCP-1174-1 is always an adult male who would identify himself as a senior officer of the vessel requiring aid. Conclusive identification of the speaker with individuals known to be aboard the vessels at time of sinking has not been made to date. Any vessels approaching within approximately 75 meters of an SCP-1174-1 vessel will suffer immediate and massive damage to their hull, resulting in the vessel sinking within minutes of approach. Forensic announces that recovered wrecks is inconsistent, indicating damage consistent with collisions, weapons fire, attacks from aquatic megabonna, and rust. In one instance, a vessel approaching SCP-1174-1-2 appears to have spontaneously capsized without suffering any other damage to its hull. SCP-1174-1-6 and SCP-1174-1-7 are known to have been sunk as a result of SCP-1174-1 contact. It is unknown whether the other instances of SCP-1174-1 sunk due to contact as well, or what form SCP-1174-1 phenomena may have taken prior to the appearance of SCP-1174-1-1. SCP-1174-2 are human beings present aboard vessels sunk as a result of contact with SCP-1174-1. SCP-1174-2 individuals, rather than dying as a result of drowning or hypothermia, remain alive and conscious after submerging, and are capable of continuing to live for an undetermined period of time in the lower elevation of Lake Superior. Aside from tissue necrosis as the result of long-term exposure to water, SCP-1174-2 specimens displayed no unusual health problems as long as they remain submerged at a temperature of 1-5 degrees Celsius, and continue to show signs of age at a normal rate. SCP-1174-2 individuals removed from the water or placed in a warmer environment will display symptoms of shock and or heat stroke, and typically die within one hour if not returned to cold water. SCP-1174-2 individuals in the wild often subsist on fish and aquatic flora, while some have been noted to attack divers or each other. This behavior appears to be rare and discouraged by the community. SCP-1174-2 individuals typically live in communities at or near the side of their shipwreck, and continue to possess full recollection of their lives prior to sinking. Most SCP-1174-2 individuals, unless suffering vocal cord damage as a result of their environment, retain the ability to speak and are capable of understanding each other whilst submerged. In interviews, captured SCP-1174-2 specimens have denied any explanation or knowledge of why or how they exist in their current state. There does not appear to be an upper limit on the length of time an SCP-1174-2 individual can remain alive in the absence of disease or natural hazards. The oldest known individual in captivity is a former crewman of the vessel D&C, currently 87 years of age, who became an instance of SCP-1174-2 upon that vessel sinking in 1957. The Foundation began formal study and containment of SCP-1174 in 1975, after investigating several claimed sightings of the Ebb and Fitzgerald following its sinking in early November. Several former crew members of the vessel were discovered living in its wreck upon the first formal exploration thereof in May of the following year, and were taken into the Foundation custody. Foundation folklorists have since connected ghost ship legends regarding the Bannockburn and the sightings of SCP-1174-1-3, and found referencing the Ojibwe folklor to a Wichigichigumi, which lures fishermen to their doom.


According to our sources, the couple parted ways because Jiji had enough of sharing her man's anaconda with other girls. Sources said the Lobola hitmaker, whose real name is Genesis Matty, found out that her now ex-boyfriend had been cheating on her, busy dipping his joystick in several other girls' honey jars. According to the mole, it was cute and adorable when they first started dating. They were goals until Jiji learned she was not exclusive. The source added that DJ Citi L-Y-T-S, real name Sandil Mkaiz, has a history of cheating and abusing women. Two years ago, it was reported that Citi L-Y-T-S was accused of beating one of his ex-girlfriends, but she later withdrew the charges. When he started dating Jiji, he seemed to have changed and was a bit focused. We should have known that the leopard never changes its spots. He changed soon after he allegedly got money from his brother Prokid's policies. He was partying with several girls and neglecting Jiji, said the source. Another source said Jiji should know that money changes people. He got some small change and forgot about Jiji and the things she did for him. It's a good thing she left him before he laid a hand on her because he has a history. His friends claim he's still grieving and dealing with the loss of both his brother and girlfriend, said the mole. Jiji said, Citi is a grown man. Talk to him. I'm cool.


In this video, we'll look at the form of the equation of Newton's law of universal gravitation, which was discovered by Newton through observation. Newton's law of universal gravitation is the underlying foundation for many of the concepts that we'll address in this course. You might have learned about gravity as F equals mg, but that equation is only accurate for objects on the Earth's surface, like apples. It's pretty impressive to think that Newton managed to explain both the motion of apples falling on the Earth and the motion of stars and planets in the sky with the concept of gravity through a single equation. Up until that point, nobody had any reason to believe that the two were related. So can we come up with any ideas of what variables may be involved in Newton's law of universal gravitation? Given that we do now know that gravity is the force responsible for how apples fall and how we move around the stars in the sky, what can we intuit about the form of the equation for Newton's law of universal gravitation? Well, let's consider a time long, long ago when dinosaurs roamed the Earth. And let's consider an asteroid is speeding through space and its path would take it very, very close to Earth. How do we think that gravity would affect this asteroid? And therefore, what do we think might be involved in this equation for gravity? Firstly, we know that gravity attracts mass, and so we may expect that we would see the asteroid experiencing an attractive force toward the Earth. If the asteroid had continued on its previous path, then it could have sailed right by, but gravitational force tends to pull the object toward the Earth in addition to its previous path. Now, the force on the object is based on that object having mass. The asteroid's mass is attracted to the Earth's mass, and therefore the mass of both objects must play a role in determining the force due to gravity. Taking this a step further, we know from Newton's third law that for every force there is an equal force in the opposite direction. So if the asteroid is attracted to the Earth, then the Earth must be attracted to the asteroid, as there's no reason the Earth should be different to the asteroid in our example. We could guess that the Earth must experience the same gravitational force, and that the mass of both objects must be represented equally in our equation. So the mass of both objects must be important. But wait! If we think that mass is important, then what about that huge, huge mass at the centre of our solar system? Why doesn't the asteroid ignore the Earth and get pulled towards the Sun instead? The reason the Sun may play a lesser role in determining the force acting on the asteroid is its distance. So it can get that the closer two objects are, the stronger the gravitational force between them, the Sun is so much bigger than the Earth that the distance must be very important. Finally, for the direction of the force, we've inferred that the force must act on both objects, and also, due to the attractive nature of gravity, that the forces must be pointing toward each other. So does the equation for Newton's law of universal gravitation actually match these predictions? As it turns out, it is pretty close. The gravitational force acting on two objects is equal to the mass of each of the objects multiplied together and divided by the square of the distance between the objects. But it is also multiplied by another constant, which is known as the universal constant of gravitation.
