Oh girl.  Um And I actually had um some nail polish sent to me. So yeah, so girl I filled up all of this I still have some left over. So y'all here is Look, baby. I've started looking at monica. Yes, monica monica. You need you need to um Monica you need to detox girl because we gotta be summer ready. Anyway, y'all monica's my cute Barbie. So this is the nail nails that I tried to do um And it's basically nail foil. Let's see if this is zoom. This is I tried y'all So this is the first try which is very very good. I think this is the second try which is trash, honey trash um Let's see if it'll zoom ain't that kind of kind of cute girl. I gotta I gotta Do it a lot better than that. So this is a full coverage curved nail And these right here. I don't know what you call these type of display. It's for your nails girls. So Yeah, I'm not buying any more nail stuff. I know I'm sitting in it now But honestly unless I'm getting press on nails. I'm not buying any more nails and because I spent so much money On nail supplies. I would not be revisiting Tina and Tom now they fit to be tied child was over there Um about two months ago Soon as I walked in she's like you you don't love me no more. I said Tina I do my own nails and I I showed her my nails.   It is Thursday Oh, I'm glad to have this week off y'all. I know the brightness is all off Um, but I slept hard last night when we per take Yeah, it's so funny whenever people see JB out and about they're looking around like Okay, is he going to school? So would be good to go get doughnuts. She's like Going to school on the way to school. I said, no, we home school So It's so everyone and then depending on who it is. They're like, oh, that's a lot of work. I'm like not not really We're two hours. We're done. Like It's a lot of work per parent And actually I'm in the middle of doing that now still doing second grade and third grade But y'all learning is we have to really change our mindset It's a mess up. We have to really change our mindset as human beings not just parents because not everyone is a parent But as human beings on how we learn think about how you learn Think about how you learn the things at your job Um, we learn by doing we learn hands on we learn through our mistakes At least some of our asses do we learn by making mistakes um, we learn from those mistakes and so The world is our canvas to learn there's all types of learning There's a group I'm in tons of different homeschooling groups and there's a group They do on-roading. I think if they do it's called on-roading or off-roading Role learning home-roading basically they travel All they do is travel still learning. So one of the things Being that I'm very interested in different cultures and different people I ask people where they're from and if it's something that I know I'm going to frequent more like getting my nails done I don't have any wipes uses for now Who the hell is calling me? This is oh, yeah the wipes are about SPAM call One of the things that I do when I know that I'm going somewhere like when I was getting my nails done from Tina I learned how to speak Say hello in Vietnamese, you know, you have to learn how to do it. Well, you don't have to but I learned how to do it Say hello to Tina and Tom because it's different depending on the gender. He's showing you how he's getting broken So when we go get our donuts, I learned how to say hello and kemit or which is a Cambodian language And now JB knows how to say and I know how to say it in different ways, you know, well Formal and informal. So he said hello and she was shocked. She's like, oh my god. He knows Cambodian I'm like, well, we're learning how to say hello Y'all, let's go. Let's go into the library. How do you say library? Apparently I'll be saying it wrong too, Jel Library, yeah, I told y'all my husband my husband library library my husband and JB They stay talking about me y'all saw that in the last vlog, right?  They talk about short. I am which is average Don't don't say nothing. What's your gonna do? Okay, baby. Don't say nothing in my don't say nothing in my comments. I'm average Y'all, let's go in here. Good, baby. Let's go.   Normally we have to do something else, but it's fully open. Look at these books Nana Okula back to school. Oh, I'm gonna get some of these books. Hey y'all About to get started on my makeup And I'm gonna call somebody Who can I call y'all? My best best friend said that she wanted a FaceTime tonight And smoke.   I see you rolling out these videos like nobody's business. That's good This week.   It's okay. It's all right. We okay We'll put my dress on y'all. Okay. Hey guys, this is a dress. Isn't this cute? To the side and it actually is pretty long Girl look at that leg.


and make a green record so that we just have a backup. OK, good. All right, wonderful. So I'm back. I'm so sure. So again, hi. Welcome. Chikub. Welcome. Welcome, maybe. Yeah, thank you. Please, everyone, for the new one, please mute your mics until you have some conversation. You can see there are many new people robbing in. Yes. Unmuted mics. It is going to. It's a large group today, so you need to go on mute, unless there's something happening, really, really very emergency. But of course, please sit back and relax and just get ready for what we've prepared for you. 50 days of keynote, 50 lessons learned. I am Alicia Bankova. This is the ADE Festival of Learning. Woo-hoo! I'm sure everybody misses the woot-woot, am I right, at the Institute? Yes, Carol, it is very good to see everybody in class. Who are we? Jacob, who are you? Yeah, so I have been a teacher for 10 years, and now I'm doing a little bit more of independent consultancy and APLS work. But I love keynote, so I was super happy when Alicia reached out to me about this exciting project. I must admit that Alicia and Laura and a couple of the others made the main part of the work. So I also said she is the star. I'm just her assistant today. Okay, thank you. And who am I? I am an English teacher, primarily, but of course I wear several hats. So I'm also responsible for digital literacy at my school. I help to coach teachers as well. So it's lots of fun, as I'm sure most of you who do the same thing know that it's lots of fun to help our fellow teachers to get into the technology to support learning. Right, so keynote. We're here because of keynote. Christoph already said he loves keynote. Everybody who loves keynote, well, please clear your love for keynote in the chat if you'd like. We decided to start the presentation with this really cool, just a few impulses, two of which were done only last week since the new keynote update. And maybe we can even make a game out of this, Jacob. I want to know if you think you know who made these wonderful keynote things, yeah? We have some other things that inspired me personally. Jacob, do you think you recognize any of them? I can see one of them from Laura Wright. Yes. Little writing hood, that's definitely her style. And the one in the right corner I have used in some of my slides as well. So I wrote that one as well. Great. By the way, guys, we're going to send you the slide deck afterwards. We will also tell you who did these wonderful things, yeah? This is also a keynote. So you can see that it has no problem just creating like a video wall, if you want to show something like that. Just different things that are going on either in the classroom or even in your school, yeah? So Jacob, can you maybe give our guests the kind colleagues today who joined us? What is in store for them this afternoon? So we will share a little bit, or at least we'll share a little bit of the backstory behind the 50 Days of Keynote, how she started the idea and the backstory. And then we are going to share some of our favorite keynote tips and tricks that got shared during those 50 Days and maybe also a little bit of looking into some of the updates. But I was really intrigued by people that dare to take on those 50 Days, 90 Day challenges. So I'm happy that Alicia and I will tell us a little bit about the story behind it and how it all started. Yes, thank you for your question.  So I have to say this idea was born because I was inspired by fellow ADEs, as you can see here on the slide. Three people did the 90 Days of Garage Band that I am aware of, of course it could have been more, I don't know. Anybody in the chat wants to say if they followed any of the 90 Days of Garage Band projects that went on last year. There was one done by Jo Owen, there was one done by Mary, and there was one done by Erica. Yeah, so John is saying he followed it. And specifically Keynote came out, the idea came out of something that Megan Ryder started. She did a 30 Days of Keynote but in the style of tutorials. So like what can we do? What are the functions of Keynote? So that's where it all started actually. I just got the idea to do that at that time, right? A little bit of the backstory you said, Jacob. For those of you who did not follow back then, we did do it on Twitter. As you know, this is our favorite place to hang out. The ADEs love to hang out on Twitter. Of course, we are also on Facebook or other things as well, but we love to hang out on Twitter. So I did have this idea, we're back before Corona. Little did we know, am I right? Innocent times. And I asked for people who wanted to collaborate on this project. Anybody wants to do 50 Days of Keynote?  And the goal was really simple. We wanted to publish a video a day for 50 days. And the focus was really not less on the things that Keynote can do, like the functions or the features. It was more, what can you create for the class? Because I notice in my area at least, some teachers just think, oh, Keynote is presentation shortstop software, full stop. Right? I don't know, is it the same thing in your end, Jacob, or anybody else? People think that Keynote is for presentations, am I right? Hopefully we are joined by people today that see many more possibilities. And I liked that about your project initially, that it was all about how to use Keynote in other ways than for presentations. Yes. So this was the big, big reason why I said, well, there's a need for teachers. When they need to do something, why do they go to different things? Why do they use different tools? Why not just use just simply Keynote to get the job done? Yeah, and I see one in the comments list saying Keynote is for everything. And that's exactly right. Have you found a thing where you can't use Keynote? It's true. It's true. So why don't you tell us a little bit about the planning phase of it, Jacob, because you were part of the project. So let me just see if I can just, yeah. Can you tell us a little bit how we worked in behind the scenes, in case somebody here wants to take on a similar project, like a collaborative team kind of thing going on, how did we get ourselves organized? I think it's maybe a bit mean that I should explain this because I think I was the one creating a bit of chaos from time to time. But we were a small group of seven, eight ease that went together and a lot of collaboration. We had a shared numbers file here where we could add in which days we had possible to make, create those videos. Yes. We just lost your audio, Jacob. I'm not sure. We did lose you. Am I right? We can't hear you. Now I think you're back now. Yeah. I think I had pulled the cords in my mic. So the numbers document were absolutely our backbone. And then I think we were in daily chatting together over messages, the iMessage app. And I think that was totally important. And it was so nice to be in a project where we actually could take turns so that everyone had a couple of days from time to time where they didn't need to produce any tutorials. Yes, exactly that. That's exactly it. So I just copied a few, screenshot a few of the tweets. So everybody, we all did a great job, I have to say. I have to give ourselves a tap on the back because we did manage to post a tweet every day of these 50 days showing what our daily thing was. And these are just some of the screenshots where you can see how we did it. And we did put it on a padlet. I'm gonna ask you, Jacob, if it's okay for you, can you please copy the padlet link because somebody has asked for you to have the padlet link in the chat. Oh, that's yeah. Yeah. And I'll try to find it. No problem. Yeah, so this is what it looked like daily. So now, as Jacob has said, we are going to show you a few of our favorite things. And of course, we would like to hear from you afterwards. So please get ready. I'm sure you've had a lot of experience with different things, maybe even with keynote, different things. So feel free to either now or you can post in the chat where we can talk about this in a discussion round later. So when you mute your mic, so I can continue with my thing. Great, cool, wonderful. We're so good. So my first favorite thing I wanted to show you, of course, the bad news, guys, we're not gonna be able to go through all the 50 things today. There's no time. We would have to be speed speakers, speedy speakers, that's not possible, right? But we're gonna be able to focus on a few. And I think there are a few that people tend not to really remember, yeah? So my one of my favorite things are mind maps. And as you can see, I created this little animation. In keynote, I used just the drawing tools with my Apple Pencil. And I just, you know, it's a really cool mind map. And as you know, you educators know mind maps are really great ways to show how things are structured, how things are connected. And in keynote, it's ideal because you can use the drawing tools, but you could also use text and shapes and lines and connectors. And what I really like about keynote, what not many people know is that you can actually connect two objects, which you thought with each other, sorry, and they move around when you move around the objects. Look, it's really cool. This works with either drawn objects that you do yourself or with shapes that you create. So you can easily create like a mind map template for your students and say, okay, guys, I'd like you to create a mind map. This is how mind maps work. I'd like you to create connections and create a structure where you can tell me how this topic or this topic works. And what's cool also is you can even format how the lines look. You can add an arrow to the end. You can, of course, have more arrows. You can just be creative, go crazy, be creative. So this is what I really like about the mind map or even concept maps. Concept maps are slightly different things as mind maps, more or less like a brain, a brainstorming thing. And what I thought I would do, maybe I'm not sure if many of you have experience doing a mind map or a mind chart or a decision tree using Keynote. Why don't we just take maybe one minute time? Yeah, I'm gonna be gonna give you one minute time to see if you can draw a flow chart. I'm gonna say go in a minute. I would like you to try your hand at either a mind map or a flow chart. Here I gave you a suggestion. Should schools reopen in September? Some people are living in countries where this is actually a question. And we can maybe even practice this. What is it like to build a decision tree? You start with the question, with the statement or with the premise, and you know you have to have an end. So the end is gonna be either yes, no, or a statement. And you have to build your decision tree with different deciding factors in the middle. So I'm gonna just give you one minute just to see if you can sketch maybe with your iPad and with your pencil, just draft. It doesn't have to look fancy. What a decision tree looks like. Of course, I'm gonna say go. So go, and I'm gonna set a timer on my iPhone so we can remind you.  I'm doing it the old fashioned way with the timer with the iPhone. You don't have to do this question. You can do another question. Other ideas are, as I have in this link down here for flowcharts, you can do, for example, if you're a grammar, if you're teaching grammar, for example, adjective or adverb, yeah, okay?  Is it before a verb? Does it have L, Y? It's really, really simple, simple flowcharts that we can use with our students, yeah? Has anybody actually used a flowchart before in class? Maybe they'd like to just write in the chat. Have you created a flowchart at Keynote? That would be maybe interesting to find out. If not, you have time, of course, get inspired for next year. So we're actually coming up to the minute is already gone. As you can see, I hope you got a little bit of a, yeah, Dr. Larry, I'm gonna call him, Dr. Larry, he has an idea using Keynote to demonstrate the diagramming of sentences. Of course, what a supuesto, bien su. That is a perfect idea. So you can see, you can just go crazy with the structured elements in Keynote. So that's enough about me, my first favorite thing. Jacob, what is your first favorite thing you wanted to share with our fellow ADEs today? Yeah, then I need you to jump one slide forward, yeah. Oh, it hasn't updated. Yeah, when I looked on all the exciting things that we have been through over the 50 days, I think one of the things that I really liked was to use Keynote for prototyping. And we shared two prototyping ideas. And one of them were, Laura, who shared how to prototype an app. And I shared a little bit later, a week later, how to prototype a webpage idea. So this, yeah, please jump forward a slide. Ah, now it's coming all of your things, yeah. Okay, shall I press play now? Yeah, here's just a little bit of Laura's video, how she draws out. Highlight what they want to do using a mind map. And then I'll start getting to actually draw it out. What is it going to look like? How is it going to work? Get them really clapped. Oh, I'm sorry. Am I supposed to jump fast on forward already? Is it okay? Yeah, let's do that. So here we see one of my students, sorry, one slide back, Laura. I think it's probably going on continuing normally. So I'm going to go here now. Sorry. So this is an example on the video you'll see iPhone, but it's not a real app. It's an app that some of my students they prototyped in Keynote. And if you are creating slideshow where the slides are the same pixels or format than iPhone, for example, when you are playing that keynote on your iPhone, it will fill it out. So some of the test subjects even didn't notice that it wasn't a real app because even the first page with all the apps on it was a keynote slide. So they were in that ecosystem or in that pool. So I think that's just a really great way to, and Laura also in her video shows how the students can change the format of the slides. But I think it's so important to use the custom slides. So if you jump on the slide forward, so I often with my students share that slide that you can see on the iPad here, where they can see all the dimensions of the current iPads and iPhones and then small explanation on how they set up the slide format for the devices they want to support. But I can really, really encourage everyone to use Keynote as prototyping and then all those links so that, yeah, you can get that interactivity into your slide. And you can start out with just some rough sketches and then finalize or continue. And one of the things that often has been interesting to see when students work on a Mac or a bigger iPad with that design and then suddenly test it out on their iPhone that they can discover how small everything is. So that's also a good process to get the feeling of how big the bottom should be compared to your thumb and so on. So Omen, I have to just bring here Jakob and I'm gonna have to ask you, where did you get this cool information?  That looks like a really handy slide to screenshot and keep, huh? Am I right, guys? It's a screenshot from Apple's own Apple support page. So... Okay, cool. So, great. I have all that. Thank you. Next. And back to you. Yeah. One more. Ah, okay. Here's just the QR code for Laura's original video about app prototyping and then my video on also the design process behind a prototype that I then made on day 18. I can see so if people want to find those things. Yes. With now online. Yes. And as Jakob already posted the Padlet link, we collected all of the links on the Padlet so that people can just go back and see the whole list is on the Padlet and we'll also give the link to, we created a book and it's on the bookstore that you can download. We'll give you the link to that later. But for now, please focus. Please focus because we're gonna check out a few more ideas. I hope you bear with us, yeah? So, Jakob, may I continue? Oh, Christopher, he's got the book. That's it? I think it's that, yeah. Great, thank you very much. You're second. So one of my, the second favorite thing of mine I wanted to show you today is I'm gonna be honest. The changes to Keynote since last week, they're just two, maybe some people would say, maybe minor changes, but they have huge implications for what kind of video tutorials we can create in future. I just, I had to steal some really cool ideas that I saw that were shared on Twitter. So I hope these colleagues are not mad at me for showing what they've done. They've done a great job. On the left, you have Michael Henderson. On the right, you have Owen Hughes. They have shown how you can use the video that plays across all the slides to create a really, really cool video tutorial. So Michael has shown how to do it with one video and just with objects on different slides that are animated.  So I guys, can I, can I, can you please give it up for Michael and Owen? I know them, they're not on the call, but maybe they look at the recording. Please give Michael and Owen some love on Twitter, but also maybe in the chat. Very nice. Thank you very much, John. Please, it's really great to see how the community comes together and as soon as something new comes out, it's like, woo, let's go. Let's do this, right? Pimp your video tutorials. We can't wait to see what people are gonna do with the great, great two new, these two new functions that have come out in Kino.  Video tutorials on keynote, please. Jacob, what else do you have to show us? What's your favorite number two? So I'm asking, let me just ask you one second. Do you wanna share your slides because I think you've updated yours. Is it better? No, I think we'll just stay in yours because I'm on the iPad living the iOS-only lifestyle right now. Okay, sorry. Oh, it has, oh, it's updated. Great. Oh, it has updated. Great. Good. Technology works, yes. So my second favorite, it was hard to decide between all those 50. So I have taken three or three of the different tips that were, got shared. And Emma actually Simpson was the first to create something about explainer videos and has made a really great video for that. And when I thought about which tips I thought were really useful, I love to use keynote in ways where it is the students who get the producers or the creators instead of, as we said, that they just consume the content from them. So I really love everything that can, whether the students create. So Emma made a video about explainer videos and Laura followed up the day after on how to make smaller explainer videos, maybe put as a GIF, exported as GIF. And then I had a couple of days later, I won about all the animations in general. So let's jump to the next slide. Oh, sorry. I think it's because it's a link. Let's go to the next slide. Yes. So here's just a couple of clips from Emma's own explainer video. And here is something about how to bake pancakes. And I just find it's super neat how she shows how you can combine drawings and shapes and so on. And I think for many teachers it's easy to see how they could use this in their subject. So I think that was, yeah. They're looking at a great example from her. Looks like a great slide. Yes. Oh, sorry. I have to, I'm having so much fun looking at all these things I'm getting or I'm getting from this. Yes. You can make a shape and then choose an animation. I've also moved to mine so that things will move about automatically. So you can play with the transitions of the actual slides themselves to make things animate and move around really nicely. And then what's been downed on it is then choosing the export button using three dots at the top right corner. And what you're looking for is the export. Oh, sorry, sorry. Just make sure. Thank you. Yes. Thank you. But this was just to give you also a taste on how Laura had narrated it. And here it is about the water cycle. But they make really lovely GIF animations for that. And it's I think also a very handy format to hand in for the teacher, not as heavy as a video. And also they need to really condense the most valuable knowledge to make a efficient GIF. So I think that's really good. And if you jump one slide forward. Yeah. Here it was just a very recent lens. It showed us how we now can with this motion path animation. Now we can create new motion paths. So she made this very fun little example on how we can use it as this coding maze. I love that very much. And I tried to show the difference on the next slide. So until now we could make this motion path like the first bee is flying here but it's in the same direction all the time. And now we can actually make it so it follows the path and flies more naturally. So if you go one forward. So you can see when you are selecting a motion path now you can put on and off this align to path tool. And I think that will create some really interesting new ways to use this motion path animation in the future. And next slide, please. Oh, that's it. Oh, that's it. That's it. Before we just move on, I just wanted to say thank you so much again to everybody in the community. Just exploring ways how to use the align to path, the new align to path feature in keynote. If you haven't tried it out yet, try it out. Think about ways you can use it with your students. You can use it for natural phenomenon. You can use it for like Jacob just showed Lindsay's example with the maze kind of like going up through a maze. So loads of, I'm sure loads of potential. So the last thing that's at least coming from me, the last thing coming from me, my absolute favorite that I really, I just had to share this. Of course, as I said, no time to go through all 50 ideas, but I had to say I love how keynote gives us the chance to create lovely textbooks and workbooks. So these are actually four things I created last year, last school year to, and I said I teach English and also digital literacy. So I'm just going to give you a little bit of a teaser and an idea, an impression of what kind of materials I create. So this is something for example, I created a keynote and I sent it to all the student iPads. We don't have one to one iPads to answer your question, Paul. We have shared iPads. It means I have a trolley in the school. I have 30 iPads for 1,000 students. So I have to, you know what I mean? I have to like book the iPads. I assigned the iPads at the beginning of the year. So everybody knows, okay, I have, this is my iPad. I get to work on their workbooks on their different things, reviewing stuff on the iPad. And this is for example, on tenses, how to do tenses in English. And here was the additional thing from keynote just to add the audio or the video. Or if you can take a look at this thing I created down here. So sorry, this is going on. This is a workbook that I created for teachers actually, for teachers to understand what computational thinking is. It's, I know some people don't understand exactly that it's actually something that we do every day. So I created a really cool workbook that I use in my teacher training workshops to help especially language teachers understand what computational thinking is. And this is really cool in keynote. You can use all the text and everything just to all the text boxes, objects and audio, et cetera, just to get them onto that. And as you can see, I have a grammar workbook.  I mean, I love grammar, but not everybody does. So this is a grammar workbook that I created for revision for my class. It was 14 year olds this year. So they were doing lots of advanced stuff. And we also did Charlie and the Chocolate Factory last year. So I created this really cool document. It was by the way inspired by Jamie Clark. I mean, Jamie Clark who does prolific things with keynote. I mean, he's like, okay, I mean, I'm only just now learning how to do things like he does where you can more or less tap on the character in the book and it will take you to a character page. It's like an interactive presentation, so to speak. And students can then do the activity on the slide and then give it up at the end. So I hope you got a nice idea what kind of things are possible with keynote. And I'm sure I'll be evolving this idea as I go on. What else do you have in store? What is your idea, Jacob? What would you like to share again? I have just a question, if you could go one slide back. So first, I really also love Jamie's character book and it was also on my list, if I should pick three. And again, once again, I think really interesting to explore those interactive links. But we got a question in the chat about the funds here. Do you know if all the typefaces used here, if they are free or already on the iPad? No, they're not on the iPad. I think Jamie sometimes used extra funds and installed them. But yeah, yeah. So as soon as anyone wants, we can catch up later. Anybody, I mean, there are Matt Pullen, by the way, who's maybe still on the call. I think I'm not mistaken. He created a video on how to add funds to the, as a custom funds to the iPad. Matt, you can correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not sure. There are videos out there, it's really easy. You have to have a third party app and you find the font, the usual place is dafont.com. You download the font, this font here, the Luna font is what I really love for titles, for headings. I was, it was Jacob, thank you very much, Matt. It was Jacob Wolcock who did that one. So just look on YouTube, look on Jacob Wolcock's YouTube channel and he shows you how to add it. It's really easy, yeah? But everything else that I use are free fonts, of course, I don't pay for fonts. Let me see, Julie is saying, can I share the website? Hmm, which website do you mean, Julie? Yeah, yeah, Google to YouTube, yeah. Or the YouTube, yeah. So in the end of the presentation, there will be links both for the padlet and the book as well, and we will of course share it. And if anyone is in a country where they can't access the bookstore, we will also find a way to. Yes. That you can exit, yeah, with you. Good, let's jump forward. Yes, I'm jumping forward, but I have to wait for the animations to finish. Yeah. Oh, okay. So my last tip here would, it was hard to decide, but this was around scrolling credits. Oh, sorry, sorry, yes. Because it's linked. Of course, yeah, just an idea here, and what I really find intriguing was to remember how Keynote also can be a tool for creating some that you are then are going to use in other apps as well. So she shared an example on scrolling a title that then showed up in a project. So next slide. Yeah, next slide. Yes. Ah, now it's coming. It's difficult to know where to click because it's sometimes he's linked. So guys, when you get this Keynote file, you'll be able to see all the links and everything, right? Okay, should I press play? So, yeah. So because... I'm just gonna do it all in one slide. So the first thing I do is I get my text all correct as I'd like it to look. So I've centered it, I've got the font that I want it to look. So I know exactly what it's going to look like on the screen. Once I've done that, the tip is to zoom out so you can see the whole slide in one go and move to the text down to the bottom. From there, we're going to click and put animate and add action and we're going to do a create path. So once again, it might zoom us back in and from there we just want to zoom back out again so we can see as much of the slide as possible. And then we just drag the text box up to the top and that creates our motion path. So you see here, I need to zoom out just so I can get it right to the top so that actually we won't see the text once it scrolls through. From that, all we need to do at that point is maybe change the duration so it slows it down a bit. I also change the acceleration so we don't have it easing in and out. It's all just in one same length. From there, that's it. You're pretty much done. So once you've done that, you can click done at the top, press the play button and you will see the text is now scrolling through and that's as simple as to make your scrolling credits. Oh, perfect. I think it just shows again another way to often we find us some limitations when it comes to how to add text in an iMovie. And we can really solve that with creating that part in Keynote and overlay and then use the green screen or blue screen or can subtract any color we want with that function and then make things that. So I just wanted to show a small example for myself. So on the left, the animation I made in using Keynote and then in iMovie, I put that Keynote on top and then use the green screen function. And I'm gonna hit the next slide and I should also use this video and video. Is it this screen, is it correct? Yeah, it's fine. So just to show also what I really like for movie titles is actually to give this hand drawn feeling to it. So I think that's really nice to be able to draw things in Keynote, add the line draw elements to it, have a distinct color as a background so that you can subtract it with the green screen feature. Very, very easy workflow. But now with the new video functionalities in Keynote where you can play a video over multiple slides, I think also we could just make that part of a movie directly in Keynote and then export it and then embed it into our project. So two different ways to work around that right now. But I thought that was my final tip and let's see there's been a lot of activity in the chat. Yes, there is. You have a bonus. Yeah, there's a little bit of a, shall I show them? Welcome to 50 Days of Keynote. My name is Jacob Hansen. And maybe pause it. I pause it, yes. Was I talking? Oh, that was just for using Keynote as a portfolio tool. I think it's maybe not the most creative of the tips that we shared during those 50 days, but I really like to make the learning journey for my students visible and that they can look back at them. And I have the team design and coding. So it has an entrepreneurship, so it's very project based often. But for them to see the projects is quite nice. So I don't think we'll play the video because it's a little bit long. But if we... Maybe I can fast forward. Oh, this looks lovely. Yeah. I'm just fast forwarding. This looks really cool. May I stop here? Yes, here. So here I just show how in Keynote you can collapse and organize your slides. I think students really like that, that they can have that full content over a full year. The slideshow can... Sometimes some of my students, they have had Keynote presentations with 500 slides over the course of 200 design hours. But they can then collapse and then easily navigate it still and then build in those interactive links. So you can see the yellow arrow in the right corner. That will always take them back to where that project starts and so on. So they can actually build in that navigation. So I find it really interesting tool. So when my students... If we want to end up with a portfolio that could be an e-pod, for example, and the shared device that they're not stick with parents, for example. If that was the goal, I would maybe go for pages. But I think in general, when here in my subjects, they also needed to show the portfolio and the exam situation. And for that, actually it was really nice to use Keynote portfolio tool. Yes. Cool. Thank you so much. So you even... You couldn't even decide on three. You decided to sneak in a fourth one. Right? Jacob. Yes. But of course, there are many... You got two quotes for the book and...

Use Form 8853 to report Archer MSA contributions including employer contributions, figure your Archer MSA deduction, report distributions from Archer MSA or Medicare Advantage MSAs, report taxable payments from long-term care LTC insurance contracts, or report taxable accelerated death benefits from a life insurance policy. That's when we're going to be using this form 8853. We're focused on the Archer here. Additional information, you can see publication 969 health savings accounts. That's the other big one that's going to come up more often, oftentimes these days than the Archer and other tax-favored health plans for more details on MSAs. So who must file? You must file form 8853 if any of the following applies. You or your employer made contributions for 2022 to your Archer MSA. You are filing a joint return and your spouse or their employer made contributions for 2022 to your spouse's Archer MSA. You or your spouse filing jointly required an interest in an Archer MSA or a Medicare Advantage MSA because of the death of the account holder, the death of account holder later. You or your spouse if filing jointly were a policy holder who received payments under LTC insurance contract or received any accelerated death benefits from a life insurance policy on or per DM or other periodic basis in 2022 to see instructions for Section C later. And we won't go into all of this here, but we're just going to touch on it. You or your spouse if filing jointly received Archer MSA or Medicare Advantage MSA distributions in 2022. You could take a look at the instructions yourself for if any of these things apply, you can dive into it in more detail. So eligible individual to be eligible for both for an Archer MSA you or your spouse must be an employee of a small employer or be self employed. You or your spouse must be covered under an HDHP that's the high deductible health plan and have no other health coverage except permitted coverage. So this is the often kind of the issues with these health plans because remember when they're trying to adjust the laws for the for the health insurance, the health insurance traditionally kind of went through the employers was kind of a tied to the employers. So then you can ask situations what if my employer doesn't provide health insurance or I work at a small business or I'm self employed, then then you have a situation where you might not have the as beneficial of a plans and you possibly could have the high deductible health care plans, which are typically going to be the lower cost type of plans, which is why you would think the lower income individuals would be purchasing the high deductible health plans, although you might just also buy those because you're when you're healthy that you know you might have you might be content with a high deductible plan as opposed to one that's going to be there every time you every time you take medical action because you're not doing a lot of medical action when you're younger versus when you're older or something like that. But in any case, those are the ones that are going to be tied to some of the some of the benefit programs and the policies as we can see here so you can see how just in general some of these some of these concepts get kind of tied together. Health insurance used to go through the employer, but now what if you're self-employed? Well, then how are we going to determine who should get a benefit from the plan? Well, we can try to figure out a plan and categorize the plan into types of plans like the high deductible health plan, which is usually the one that again is tied to some of these kind of benefit programs here, such as we see here and possibly we'll see later when we get into like the health insurance marketplace has a similar kind of conceptual framework. Okay, so you must be enrolled in Medicare and can't be another person's dependent. You must be an eligible individual on the first day of a month to take an Archer MSA deduction for that month. So small employer, a small employer is generally an employer who had an average of 50 or fewer employees today is during either of the last two calendar quarters.  So now they're just picked 50 employees, right? So does it make you large if you when you hire that 50th or 50th employee, you know, it's kind of an arbitrary line, but that's the kind of thing that happens again with these when we try to try to put these rules in place. So Archer MSA generally an Archer MSA is a medical savings account set up exclusively for paying qualified medical expenses of the account holder.


Hi stampers, welcome to another week of Watch It Weekly Wednesday. I'm Aubrey, part of the Stamp and Jill creative team. And today I'm excited to share with you a stamp set that's in the Holiday Mini Catalog. It is called the Rustic Harvest Suite. Super cute, great for fall, Thanksgiving, so fun. So let me show you kind of the things that are in here. You have your stamp set, Hello Harvest, so cute, I'm in love with this big pumpkin. You have dyes that coordinate, this is the Rustic Pumpkin Dyes set, so so fun. I especially love this little banner that cuts out some of the sayings. You have the designer series paper.  It is so cute, I am in love with this paper, so so fun. Okay, and then you also have the leaf label and amber gem combo pack. So in here comes these cute amber gems. They are really cute, we don't really have anything else that's quite that color.  Okay, so I wanted to show you a few cards that we've made using this set, this suite of products, but I wanted to make one with you today. So we're going to start, I have already stamped my pumpkin here. I just stamped it in the Memento black because I'm going to color that with the blends. I'm also going to stamp in Mossy Meadow, a leaf here.  Okay, so I'm just going to use my Cajun craze and stamp a background here on the back of my Cajun craze cardstock, just like that, okay.  And I'm going to put it kind of toward this right side of that little strip.  Okay, so then with our dice, we will cut out our pumpkin and our leaf. And this cute little vine out of Mossy Meadow. And I've already done that. Oh, but I did want to show you how to color this pumpkin really quick. So let me grab my stamp and blends. I'm using Cajun craze and soft suede.  And then I'm also going to put a little bit of a shadow on each edge, kind of like that, okay. And then I'm going to come in with my light Cajun craze and just not even really blend, just kind of color that in because I don't want it to be too blended on this one. I want those lines to really stick out. I might blend a little more just on these edges right here. Okay.  And then we'll color the stem with soft suede. And I don't have any rhyme or reason for this one. Just get the color on there, just like that. And like I said, I have already cut those out. So I already have my pieces here. Hey, now let's put our card together. Okay. So we're going to use this really cute designer series paper. And I'd hear that down with stamp and seal. And then I'm going to use some dimensionals and just pop that up and just put that right in the center of my card. Okay.  And then we're going to add our pumpkin, just right on to the bottom corner. And our leaf can just go right behind it here and our little vine. Now, with your vine, you might want to use something like green glue. It's actually the, I say this every time. Tombow mono, multi liquid glue, green glue. And stick that on this direction and then add our little saying here.  And of course, a little amber gems, just like that. So cute. So fun. I love using this suite of products. So let me show you a few other cards that I've come up with using this set. Now, some of these are our creations here in the office and some are samples that we've received from other demonstrators. I have quite a few that I want to share with you because they're so cute. So wishing you the loveliest day. I love this one with that cute banner. Here's another. On these ones, I did that clear embossing technique. So it has kind of that shine. This is one that was given to us. I love that cute watercolor blue pumpkin and another one that's been kind of watercolored. Here's another one with the cute flowers on top of the pumpkin. Look at this cute fold. So cute. Here's using those dyes and another one. And I love this one, how this turned out. So cute. And wishing you the loveliest day. So fun. I have loved playing with this suite of products, the rustic harvest suite of products.  Again, you can find it in the mini catalog that's current right now. We'll put links below for any of the products if you are interested in purchasing it. And if you have any questions, make sure to put them in the comments below. Thanks so much for watching and we'll see you next week for another Watch It Equal Wednesday.


So a bit of real talk here, Arush is actually one of my least favourite members of the worst generation and it's not because of his design, his power, or even his minimal role in the story thus far. It's all because every now and then that sneaky sneaky monk strolls onto YouTube and steals my subscribe button, thus preventing you all from pressing it to receive regular one-piece content uploaded straight into your YouTube feeds. So while it is still very briefly here, I recommend you press it before this smiling demon thieves it once again. I got beat up quite badly, but I'll see whether or not there's still hope for me. As I return the attack, I'll have to thank you for inflicting these wounds upon me. Now prepare yourself for karmic punishment. Hello and welcome to One Piece 101, the series that breaks down everyone and everything in the one-piece world, and today we're going to be looking into one of the most mysterious members of the worst generation being the ever-smiley mad monk Arush. Arush is a bulky and towering presence who may even be best physically described as just as wide as he is tall. With that said, Arush's most distinguishing feature would be his everlasting smile, which is almost always being worn no matter how awful a situation he may be in. And you also may have noticed by this point that Arush sports a pair of wings, making him a denizen of the sky. And although this is currently unconfirmed, it is hinted that he was from the sky island of Berka, which is notable for being the location where Enel was born and would eventually come to destroy. And this thought prevails because Arush's wings tend to match those of the Berken forces that Enel brought with him. However, it should also be stated that Arush was drawn as a child by Oda in the SPS of Volume 64, which depicted him with both the wings and hairstyle of the Skypean people. And rather sadly, that image is pretty much the extent of what we know of the early days of Arush, but at some point he would make his way down to the Blue Sea and commence a life of piracy, eventually becoming the captain of a group known as the Fallen Monk Pirates. And you can tell that Arush is the captain because his smiley face adorns the Jolly Roger of the cohort. In regards to the other members of the Fallen Monk Pirates, at the moment they are portrayed pretty much as auxiliary background figures, however they do all resemble something of an order as they wear the same robes as their captain. And while it is unlikely it's also entirely possible that at least some of these individuals are also former Sky citizens and are simply hiding their wings within their robes for the sake of being inconspicuous on the Blue Sea. Although with that said, Arush doesn't seem to care for hiding his heritage himself, so that thought might be a bit of a stretch. In any case, with his crew in tow, Arush eventually entered the ground line and became a notorious pirate, displaying a particularly rough and raw fighting style consisting of pure brawn. Which you can see overtly in Arush's weapon of choice, which is that he seems to enjoy lugging around a large hexagonal pillar to engage in heavily blunt forced focus battles. Although that is not to say that Arush needs this item to fight, in fact most of the evidence we've seen would say otherwise. If anything this pillar is more of a neat utility item that Arush makes use of from time to time simply because he can. But with all of this in mind, Arush became a near instantaneous terror on the seas, earning an initial bounty of 108 million berries by the time he had reached the halfway point being Sabadeya Kapelago. And despite only really scraping over the 100 million berry mark, this distinction would lead him to becoming one of the supernovas, a cohort of rookie pirates who had all arrived at Sabadeya at roughly the same time, including protagonist of the series, Monkey D. Luffy, as well as his right-hand man, Roarinoro Zoro, as well as other grand contemporaries such as Drafalgalor and Eustis Kid. And while yes, Arush actually held the lowest bounty of the 11 supernovas, you would never be able to tell that simply by observing him alone because Arush exudes a profound level of confidence, much of which probably comes from the whole permanent smiling thing. But during the Sabadeya arc, he was shown to be willing to leap into combat at a moment's notice against any number of world figures including his contemporary supernovas, a pacifista and even a marine admiral. And as much as it's very very easy to blame Luffy for all of this chaos on Sabadeya, in truth Arush was starting his very own brand of anarchy long before the straw-hack captain punched a world noble in the face. As in the very first glimpse of Arush we catch in the series, he is locked in combat with fellow supernova, Massacre Soldier Killer, member of the Kid Pirates. Now exactly why this altercation began is unknown, but the available evidence does point to Arush being the party who started it. Bad, bad Arush. As the crowd around them exclaim, the mad monk is going wild. As well as the fact that Killer, despite his epithet of Massacre Soldier which is terrifying, but he is generally a calm, cautious and collected man. In any case this skirmish is brought to an abrupt halt by yet another supernova being Diaz Drake, who then told both combatants to save their rampage for the new world, which is all well and good, but that choice would not necessarily remain up to them, as after Luffy's even more reckless actions, marine admiral Kizaro was summoned to Sabadey, along with a small legion of pacifista. Which you know is not good news, not good news at all, however this is where we would get to see the mad monk's true power briefly displayed. And very intriguingly Arush holds the power of a currently unnamed devil fruit that seemingly allows him to directly convert any physical damage he takes into an excess of strength for him to put to use. And the effect of this also manipulates his physicality, which was shown when his body exceeded the size of a pacifista which is no easy task because those things are gigantic powerhouses. And the one attack we are aware of in this form is known as Inga Zarashi, which literally means calmer exposure or karmic punishment according to the Vizmanga translation, which is essentially referring to Arush striking his enemy with the power granted to him via the damage of said enemy. So whoever his unfortunate opponent is, is receiving their karmic punishment, absorbing exactly what it is that they put out in the world to begin with. And with the power Arush demonstrated after acquiring that strength, it more than likely would have been enough to defeat the cyborg. However at this point marine admiral Kizaro intervened and shot a laser beam through Arush's shoulder, effectively eliminating him from this conflict. Although Arush and the fallen monk pirates would find themselves able to escape this dire situation after Kizaro's attention was turned towards dealing with the straw whom he ultimately also failed to apprehend. In fact you know what when you think about it, this was a pretty poor showing from Kizaro because as much as he was able to defeat any number of supernovae he encountered with ease, he didn't manage to capture a single member of this 11 person wanted list. I guarantee you this is the sort of reason why he was not put forward to be the next fleet admiral. Back to Arush though and he goes on to make some scattered appearances during the rest of the paramount war saga, generally by sitting pretty and watching the conflict of marine food play out. Although at the conclusion of the event he actually made a rather interesting observation in regards to a certain Blackbeard, where Arush stated that he would be the key and the eye of the storm for some time to come. And I guess I point this out because Blackbeard tends to be a bit of an ignored presence in one piece. I mean not so much these days but the fact that Arush was more concerned with his presence and the other events that had taken place shows that he is a very tuned in individual. But after the paramount war was said and done Arush and the fallen monk pirates immediately set sail into the new world. Following their log pose to a curious location we now know as Raijin Island, an area of the world that is perpetually being struck by lightning. This did not stop the fallen monk pirates though as eventually they moved on from the island and began causing all sorts of havoc over the new world and quite notably eventually Arush would cease to be known as a supernova and instead labelled as a member of the worst generation which is a group that encompasses all of the form of supernova although it adds the figure of Blackbeard to their cohort. However Arush's most notable action in the new world thus far has been an incredibly bold invasion of the territory of Charlotte Lynn Lynn better known as Big Mom who is one of the four emperors of the sea. And during this time Arush was met by one of her then four sweet commanders Charlotte Snack, a man with a bounty of 600 million berries. However despite the numerical difference between 600 and 108 Arush emerged victorious which shouldn't be all that surprising because remember boys and girls we should never judge a character's strength or their general power based solely on bounty numbers. But this sweet victory would be short-lived as a second commander by the name of Charlotte Cracker then immediately pursued and defeated the mad monk forcing the entire crew to flee to a sky island where they would lay in recovery for quite some time. And it would be here that Arush encountered a most unexpected sight being another of the emperors of the sea Kaido. Although this time around Arush had no inclination to fight and in fact it's not clear whether or not Arush recognised this man as Kaido to begin with but even if he did Kaido's purpose here was to jump off the sky island and give something of an attempt of suicide by meeting the hard ground 10,000 meters below and this would actually lead to one of the rare moments in the series where we saw Arush offering a facial expression that did not consist of a smile as he was determined not to stop Kaido and instead offered him a prayer anticipating his death which once again went on to display the more pious side of Arush. Although Kaido of course did not die and the group of the worst generation members that he nearly landed on were nowhere near as lucky as Arush in encountering the emperor. Yeah that's probably an understatement. We're used to Skid in particular being beaten to a pulp and being imprisoned on the island of Wano so that's definitely one reason for Arush to keep up that devious smile of his. But sadly this is the last that we have seen of Arush in the story at the time of this recording in fact his most recent appearance would have been in the film One Piece Stampede where he alongside most of the worst generation attended the Pirate's Expo in the hope of attaining Roger's treasure which very notably was not the One Piece and so Arush became embroiled in those events and even briefly fought against Douglas Bullet but that's about it really. Plus all of this is non canon stuff so we'll all just resume forgetting about it in three, two, one. Some more fun facts about Arush. Many of Arush's character elements are almost certainly based on the famous Russian Grigori Rasputin a man who was labelled as the mad monk despite holding no official position in the Russian church. He was however exceptionally charismatic gaining an absurd amount of influence with the Tsar and was even rumoured to be having an affair with the Tsarina. Not an awful lot is known about Arush's feelings towards his fellow worst generation members although to be fair not a lot is known about Arush's feelings towards anything. However he does possess a certain level of respect for both Luffy and Zoro. Zoro because he was willing to stand up to one of the world nobles during the subrediac and Luffy because he was a man capable of commanding the beast that is Zoro. While Arush's conflict with Snack was only briefly mentioned in the manga the anime adaptation did elect to visually depict a part of it showing Arush emerging victoriously before going on to be brutally beaten by Cracker. While Arush's 108 million barry bounty may seem quite small compared to his fellow worst generation members it does carry some significance as the number 108 is seen as a mystical number in eastern religion with Japanese Buddhists in particular believing that a man must conquer 108 temptations before reaching Novana and this number can also be seen elsewhere in the series being used commonly with Zoro's 108 pound cannon being yet another example. The flagship used by the fallen monk pirates is known as the Hanjomaru which as with the rest of Arush takes aesthetic influence from Japanese folklore particularly in regards to its white moony figurehead. As a member of the worst generation Arush has been subject to a wide variety of requests including having him drawn as a woman as well as a quote-unquote cute person both of which still have this eerily familiar air of overwhelming power that Arush tends to exude even when he has an effort to light for bow in his hair and finally a truly useless fact according to Etchira Oda in an SPS segment if Arush was not a pirate then his career of choice would be as a cabaret club manager which is a well it's quite a departure from what we know of him. I would have said cabaret club bouncer myself but look Arush has larger ambitions than that and I think that we should all come to respect that and that pretty much does it for Arush but what do you guys think please do leave your thoughts in the comments below or even join my discord server and if you'd like to see more videos like this then please do go and check out some of my other content or even subscribe to the channel for more glorious one-piece business uploaded straight into your youtube feeds but for now this has been the ground-line review and I'll see you next time


Hey today, I am going to be revising for you a book with quite a long title OCD tools to help you fight back a CBT workbook for young people quite a mouthful now This book is like accompanying workbook that goes with the clinical guide. I don't have the clinical guide But actually I think that this on its own it's already quite good If you're someone who's like relatively familiar with this stuff, but if not you might want to get both So what is this this is a book by the team at the Maudsley who support children and young people with OCDs That's obsessive compulsive disorder now the first thing I need to say is I've worked with these guys in the past They were incredibly kind and helpful and many years ago when I was doing my PhD They allowed me to come and shadow the work that they were doing at the Michael Rutter Center and they were doing great stuff and I didn't know much about OCD before I worked with them But what I learned from them was that this is a condition that can really like overtake young people's lives or anyone's lives And it feels completely out of control and it feels impossible to do anything about but it's super super treatable Now the guys at the Maudsley have spent a long time developing strategies that really really work So they've got really good evidence base for what they know works and they have a program that they work through With children and young people with OCD they know it works And so they've basically kind of manualised it and this is kind of the the manual the worksheets that go with this process Okay, so just share a little bit of information from the back about who the authors are so you can see so the So yeah Chloe Volts was the first one who talked to me about OCD and got me to learn a bit more about it Because I had done some work at her child's school around self-harmonizing disorders And she said I'd like you to work on OCD too So thank you to Chloe for first introducing me to the world OCD some time ago. So they're a great team You can see they've got loads of experience. Yeah, and yeah, just in case you don't know all acronyms So BDD Stands for body dysmorphic disorder. So that's people who perceive their body incorrectly and that's really distressing for them So they might for example like have a kind of obsessions around like being like having a really ugly nose or really horrible hands Or quite often we see it in eating disorders where people will see themselves as grotesquely fat even if they're really underweight For example, so that's what BDD stands for. Okay enough wittering pookie So let's have a look at the contents first so you can have a look and see kind of what happens here So I'll show the contents pages here So you can see that it goes through kind of session by session and at the beginning You're kind of developing the understanding and skills and then there are sessions in the future where you're like using ERP which is exposure and response prevention, which is like the key technique to actually overcome The obsessions and compulsion so it does become like repetitive But in a good way because you're kind of establishing and reinforcing those skills and tackling more behaviors Okay, so let's have a look at some of the pages to give you a feel for what it's like So I'm going to first go to page 33 and 34 Okay, so let's have a look now at pages 32 and 33 I'm going to look at them in the reverse order weirdly just in order to help explain So you can see on page 33 that we're thinking about how we break the OCD cycle This gives you a good idea about like the style of the book This is what the illustrations kind of look like and there's this this kind of uniform style throughout which is great So you can see here we're thinking about that cycle of OCD and the fact that we want to break that cycle by controlling the compulsions the behaviors and then There is on page 32 a blank one that you can use to work through an example of your own OCD So use that with the child in order to outline You know one of their behaviors and we would then think about what's the compulsion here that we're trying to get rid of So that gives you an example of the the kind of exercises that you'd be doing in the earlier sessions and what it kind of looks like Okay, and then we're going to look next at 40 page 47 Which is fighting back using ERP to beat OCD so ERP is exposure and response prevention And here we go through this kind of 10-step process that we do again and again and again throughout the course of this book in order to try and Beat those compulsions essentially so you can get an idea here about the kind of process that you're going through many many many times And this comes up again and again and again. This is kind of the the key component really of the the workbook Okay, and then I'm going to show you page 114 Which is I wanted to show you because there's kind of these tools for fighting OCD and this is one of them And here we're thinking about intrusive thoughts And then there are some exercises where we think about our intrusive thoughts and on the following pages We think as well as the positive intrusive thoughts We think about neutral ones and negative ones and it goes on to explain a bit more So just to kind of give you an idea about you know again some of the sort of background and the information Understanding that you would be building with a child if you were to use the workbook So yeah, so as I said, this is the workbook. It goes alongside the clinical Manual which I I don't have because I didn't realize it existed. So I didn't ask for copies Sorry, and if you'd particularly like me to review that then do leave a comment below and I will endeavor to do so in a future Video, but I don't have it right now And I thought the workbook is relatively self-explanatory and stands quite well alone as long as you've got a fairly decent understanding of OCD to Start with but I really liked it It was really practical gives you a really clear framework for supporting a child Through overcoming their OCD and I think it's nice because it's really skills building And so it will provide kids with the skills and the understanding they need in order to continue to Tackle their OCD As well. So yeah, I like it and I can imagine lots of you Would find that this would fit really neatly and easily into your practice Okay, the three things I most liked about this book one is there's a whole ton of space So you can write all over it a kid can make it completely their own the workbook It's great. I love books that you can write in I know not everyone does but I do and I like it a lot Okay, number two is that it is based on a lot of research clinical evidence and Stuff so it's there's science But it's really clear and simple to use so it's not overwhelming in any way So even though there's like loads and loads of stuff behind it What you're actually presented with is something that's really simple and super usable, which I think is great Um and number three is that I like the fact that you are encouraged to repeat tasks And you go back doing the same things again and again Which I think would provide like this sense of familiarity and make it easier to engage and make the sessions work Really well with a child or young person And I think it would also make it much more likely that they're able to continue To use those skills and engage with those ideas and ways of addressing their thinking After the session as well. So there's not like tons and tons of new ideas and information all the time There's lots of reinforcing Of the skills that have been learned and revisiting them and trying them again with new behaviors and so on and so forth So yes, would I recommend it? Yes, I would if you are supporting children young people with OCD Really really neat And clearly has had a huge amount of work behind it has been shown to work And the hard work has been done for you really. So, um, yeah great a great resource. I think to add to your toolbox I hope you found the video helpful. Do let me know if there are Books or other resources that you would like me to review in future videos Leave a comment with your suggestions and I hope to see you next time Do subscribe and you will be kept updated with my new videos that come out on a Tuesday and a Friday Okay, take care. Goodbye


Yes. And then a Richard Petty Auto, 8 of 99. There we go, the legend. Seven-time champ. Richard Petty, 8 of 99. Beautiful auto. Beautiful. Good start, Richard Pet.


Hi, my name is Shruti Nastar, and today I will be talking about succinct interactive oracle proofs, applications and limitations. This is a joint work with Ron Rothblum. So let's start by breaking down the title. What are interactive oracle proofs or IOPs in short? Well, IOPs are a new type of proof system that generalizes both traditional interactive proofs and PCPs. How does it work? Well, we can think of it as an interactive proof where the verifier only gets oracle access to the prover messages rather than the full access that it gets in a traditional interactive proof. Alternatively, we can think of it as an interactive analog of a PCP. So a PCP is basically a half-around IOP. So what are IOPs good for? Well, IOPs have numerous applications from constructing succinct arguments to delegation of computation, and even more recently, they've been used for achieving hardness of approximation results. So IOPs are useful. They have many applications. But let's go back to the first word that I had in the title, which is succinct. What do we mean by succinct? Well, a succinct proof is essentially a short proof. Namely, when we're talking about NP relations, a succinct proof is a proof whose length is polynomial and the witness length rather than in the instance length. Why do we care about that? Well, for general NP relations, usually the instance is much larger than the witness. So if you have a succinct proof, this means that we have a short proof. Kalaian Dras asked whether there exists a succinct PCP for all of NP. Fortnum and Santana basically gave a negative answer for that question because they showed that under a standard complexity assumption, there is no succinct PCP for SAT. However, we know that there exists a succinct IOP for SAT. In fact, we know a couple of constructions. So this creates this sort of separation between IOPs and PCPs. And IOP can do something that we believe a PCP cannot. Now, let's go back to the succinct IOP for SAT. Does that imply that there's a succinct IOP for all of NP? After all, SAT is an NP complete relation. However, this is not the case. And this is because reductions from NP relations to SAT do not necessarily preserve the witness length. So this question remains open whether there exists a succinct IOP for all of NP. Now, one might ask, why do we care about that? Why do we care about succinct IOPs? And as a first result, we show an application of succinct IOPs. We show a compiler that takes a succinct IOP and produces a succinct zero knowledge proof. And I want to emphasize that we're talking about proofs here. So we have statistical soundness. So soundness holds even against an unbounded cheating prover. This is not an argument. And this compiler requires only the minimal assumption of one-way functions. So we take this compiler and we apply it to the succinct IOP of Ronci and Rotbloom and we get the shortest known zero knowledge proofs for bounded space NP relations under the minimal assumption of one-way functions. Namely, the zero knowledge proof that we get has communication complexity to a proof length which approaches the original witness length. Now, this is cool. Succinct IOPs imply succinct zero knowledge proofs. So can we get the succinct IOP for all of NP? So we're revisiting the question that we asked earlier. And as a second result, we show that under NU but reasonable complexity conjecture, there is no succinct IOP for all of NP. How do we do that? Well, at the first step, we show a compiler that takes a succinct IOP and produces a special sort of algorithm which is a small space algorithm with polynomial time preprocessing. And we conjecture that circuit SAT cannot be solved in small space with polynomial time preprocessing. Now, circuit SAT is the Boolean satisfiability problem of circuits rather than just specific formulas. So combining the conjecture with the compiler, we get that under this conjecture, there is no succinct IOP for C SAT or more generally, there is no succinct IOP for all of NP. For more details, you are more than welcome to attend the talk that I will be giving at the conference. Thank you.
