I mean, we talk about it. I mean, I'm definitely a guy that I'm very competitive. So, you know, I want to go out there and play with it every time I'm on the field. And, you know, I know it's a standard around here.  And like I say, and be productive with my number score. So that's what the approach that I take to the game.   What have you seen? And are you more excited about the things you've done well? Or do you kind of kick yourself, saying, hey, if I'd done this, it might have been more? Yeah, it's definitely more about what I could have done better and what I feel like I could have improved that on each and every play, whether passing plays, running plays, whatever. You know, I'm definitely trying to figure out a way to, you know, be better. Like I said, just with this opportunity, I want to capitalize on the opportunity everywhere I can. So every little mistake I feel like I have on beating myself up about it. But at the end of the day, like I know we're going to make mistakes. I'm not perfect. So no, like I said, I put it behind me. If I make a mistake and I go hard. There's a back knowing, you know, the opportunities may be a bit limited. How do you go about not pressing, trying to hit that home run every time you touch the ball?   And I feel like, you know, we do that. We have successful runs. I mean, we were able to run the ball this past week. Like I said, unfortunately, the way the game went, you know what I mean? We had to, you know, do other things. But, you know, honestly, I feel like, you know, I feel like we ran the ball pretty good. You know, I mean. Look like almost, you know, like there are different chunks. Like the beginning Adrian was getting more of the carries than you and then maybe down trial after that. Was that by design or did that just, you know, how the thing played out? I mean, I don't know. I mean, that was a coach's decision. I'm not the one that's making those calls. So like I said, whenever my number is called, I go out there and try to be as productive as I can be. And, you know, that's how I go about it. So you just stay close to coach Doos and wait to hear Domte down there?  So whenever it is, I'm always ready. I'm always there. Patriots defense. You expected to be kind of tough sledding the way they've been playing.  I mean, we just got to go out there and play our game. At the end of the day, they're a great team, great coach team.  So it'll be a good one for us.


A couple of things just before we jump into our final keynote panel. So I mentioned this morning that Len Silveston's workshop tomorrow in Understanding Behavioral Factors is going to be switched from the here bell, the boat, into the Cockatoo Room. I may have also mentioned that we're thinking of switching lunch because of the likelihood of rain tomorrow, but looking outside right now, it's like let's, let's make that call tomorrow when we see how the weather actually is rather than, than maybe preventing ourselves from gathering outside again because it's such a gorgeous day. All right. The way to learn that tomorrow, by the way, just if you could check the app or the digital sign that's out there, we'll be making those updates as soon as the decision is made. I mentioned this morning these pink forms. We don't actually have enough for everybody so that you can submit these over the next couple of days if you're going to be around. We'll also include the evaluations from the Thursday and Friday sessions. If you include those, then we'll include you in the drawing that I mentioned for either an all expense paid return visit to DJI Q in June or for one of the free tickets that we'll be giving away for Enterprise Data World in March. All right. We have something special happening right at the end of this session. So one of our panelists, Kim Wine-Zero, wrote a book recently called the Data Governance Guidebook and Playbook by Practitioner for Practitioners. The folks at Elation had ordered many copies, I think 100 copies of the book for Kim to sign and for whatever reason, perhaps the Amazon outage yesterday, they did not arrive in time. So they are set up outside the room here and if you would like a copy of Lynn's book for free, Kim's book, I'm sorry, for free, then just go there and scan your badge, they'll capture your address and they can mail that to you afterwards. So thanks very much to the folks at Elation for doing that. If you were interested in taking the Certified Data Management Professional exams while you're here, there is one more time slot this evening, five to seven in the Russo East-West Room. That's the small room just around the corner from the coffee shop downstairs. There's been a number of people who've been taking those exams so far, so take advantage of that opportunity while you're here. It's a pass or don't pay. So if you take the exam, don't pass, you won't pay for that unfortunate experience. The pass rate is very high. Well, actually, it's a very demanding exam, which makes it a valuable credential. But the pass rate amongst the folks who attend these conferences is generally fairly high. Also, the Data Governance Professional Organization, the DGPO, conducted a raffle with some prizes as well. There were two free memberships offered. One was won by a Creti Agrawal of Emeritus. And the other by Michael Pipp of MDTA. The DGPO will be in contact with you about how to get your free membership. And there was also a $100 Amazon gift card, which was won by Jesse Huerta of the US Air Force. So they will be in touch with you also, Jesse, about that. Okay, let's jump into our final panel then. And I wanted to leave us with the theme of adapting to the future. This has come up in various contexts through the course of the meetings so far, but let's put a little organization around it. So I've asked each of our speakers here, each of them is a senior data management, data governance executive within their organizations. Ryan Dupay is the VP and Chief Data Officer of American Fidelity Assurance. Kim White-Zero is the Director of Data at Radio Systems Corporation, which I find a particularly interesting name for an organization whose main brands are PetSafe and SportDog. How did that come about? Yeah, it's... They pivoted at one point. I'm having a little brand identity crisis here. I won't press you on camera then. But she was most recently the Chief Data Officer for the state of Tennessee to just very recently moved over to Radio Systems. And Hayes Williams is the Head of Data Governance for the R&D Division of Daichi Sankyo. And Hayes gave a terrific presentation a little earlier today about the use of video in communicating about data governance, which we have on camera. Actually, I think we have both Kim and Hayes' prior presentations. Ryan, I think you were in a different venue. But the video that we've been taking just of this room over the past two days will be shared with you for free, of course. So you'll be able to experience all of these sessions later. All right, so I wanted to start out, please, by asking each of you to just reflect on the past couple of days. Sorry, we should have moved this podium, shouldn't we? Is there any chance, John, of just backing that out of the way so I can actually see folks? I know I'm tall, but... What were the best ideas that you got from the last couple of days? Ryan, let's start with you. Can I share a few? Absolutely. Yeah, so I'll share a few of the highlights that I got from some sessions and I was reflecting on this just a little bit ago. On Monday, there were a couple of really good sessions that I was in. The first one was on building a successful data quality program that was with John Talbert. I thought there were some interesting things he shared around how data quality relates to manufacturing quality and how a lot of the same principles cross both. And he talked about the difference between data quality assurance, which is those data quality processes and checks along the manufacturing process versus data quality control, which is something that happens at the end after a data product is delivered. And he talked about the importance of having both in place. In the afternoon on Monday, there was a really good session. I attended on building award-winning business glossaries. And one of the key questions I was hoping was going to be answered, and it kind of did, was, is a hot dog a sandwich? And the session was all about business glossaries. So the answer was it depends. It depends on how you define a sandwich. And I did learn that the USDA would consider a hot dog a sandwich, but they wouldn't consider a grilled cheese sandwich a sandwich because it doesn't have meat in it. So that was pretty interesting. But all seriousness, it was a good session. If you're trying to understand the difference between a business glossary, a data dictionary, and a data catalog, there were a lot of good tips from that session. I'll share just a few more. I thought that the keynote this morning from Scott Peachy was really insightful. The engine that drives the data office, I think those are some good takeaways for everyone around what a mature data governance function may look like. I also really liked his slide on what data governance is versus not. I think there's a lot of good principles that can be taken from that. Another session I attended was exercises and data ethics from Peter Akin and Karen Lopez. And that session was really good. It just made me think harder about data ethics. It's not always something that's front of mind or that we think about every day. But it is something that is really healthy to be thinking about as you build out your data solutions. And then the last one I'll hit on was earlier today as well, Scott Taylor's presentation. I think that was probably the funniest presentation on data I've ever seen before. So I thought it was fantastic. And I hope there's a recording. It was in this room. So I'm assuming there is a recording. Oh yeah, there's a recording of that one. Yeah, there were probably a couple dozen one liners that I'd love to add to my brain so I could use as needed. So those were some of my big takeaways from the session. Yeah, the one liner from Scott that stuck with me was respect the ingredients. Yeah, by the way, so we have a couple of microphones in the audience. Like, we don't have to wait until the very end for you to chime in if you have something else. And in fact, I'll ask, once we're through asking this question of our three panelists, I'll ask anybody in the crowd who'd like to contribute to this question as well about, what are the best ideas you're taking home? All right, let's move from the audience left to Ryan Hayes. What were your best takeaways? So I will talk more about themes. I wasn't as good about talking in specific presentations, which was excellent. I, a couple of themes I took. One was metricing the data governance program itself. I have to say, I know better. It's great to come to an event like this and kind of reaffirm what you know you should be doing and taking that back with a bit more kind of energy and a couple of tips, tricks and ideas for how to convey the business value to the business, how to, what data governance means. Training, a lot of mentions of training and some good ideas from my perspective on formalizing being more deliberate about how to bring people into the data governance area. What courses do you need? What methods you use to train? And from Scott Pichy's keynote yesterday, I did take something from that as well. I took a crisis of confidence. Why am I not doing more? Why is it not going faster? You know, that kind of thing. So that's what I have for you. All right, Kim, what's your take? Yeah, so in the last session I presented, I called out Jim Johnson's presentation, what every business should know about data governance. He has got a slideshow that is just jam packed full of intelligence. So if you haven't downloaded that, download that. Some awesome checklists and insight in there. The Delta, Dental folks, are you in here? They've got it. They were the remote, they were one of the remote ones. Oh, okay. Yeah, that's right. In their presentation, they have a super cool infographic. Like without even talking to these gentlemen, I could look at the infographic and know what their journey has been since 2015. So very good for executive level support buy-in. So I really like that. I keep hearing, as far as themes go, that executive support, you have to have it. I learned more about data fabric, thanks to the IBM folks, because I didn't know, is that like a person place or thing? So I learned more about that. Scott Taylor was amazing. But the one thing that keeps cropping up, and it hadn't really dawned on me, like why do we call it governance? And I know it's in our, we are the governance conference here, but the examples I've been hearing is like, we don't call it like HR governance, even though they're doing the same thing with people. So like the word governance keeps coming up as, boy, is there a softer word we could use for that? Is there, has there been a good alternative that's been proposed? I haven't, I haven't heard any other than saying, we're the data department. Oh, Amber's got an idea. This morning, I don't know if I think it was the CEO of Ovala, she said, we're the data defense. So that's my new thing. We're not data governance, we're data defense. Data defense, yeah. Who has some great ideas that they're taking away from this conference? Well, that's a disappointing that nobody would have any ideas. Maybe I should rephrase that question. Who'd like to share some of the big ideas that they're taking away? Or things that you're going to do differently when you get back to the office? Way in the back there. Yep? I would say differently, I would say with more energy. Okay. Maybe just re-confirm, re-affirm, but needed to be done differently, but with more energy. Fair enough. One of the best talks, and I alluded to this this morning on the panel with Tim Mavsgrove's talk, I think his emphasis on incorporating project management metrics and techniques into the development of their program, I think had some terrific insights in it. I mean, being in the room, the type of questions that came up, that one clearly resonated with a lot of people too, as something to try differently. Yes? Methodologies for that. Rob Siners, or Bob Siners presentation on communication I thought was excellent, and just keeps resonating in my head that yeah, we need to do a lot more of that. Yeah. Yeah. Carlo, if you go there, Dave, if you could come over here and Danette has, we'll take Danette's question first, or Danette's contribution first. So I liked the one on meditation mindfulness. Sorry, I can't remember the woman's name. Oh, Matia, Matia's down, yeah. That was really good, and she really showed how it can help, and you can easily do that within a corporation. It was not just individual, but with your team. And Zen with Len on the beach is a particular favorite. That one you can go to every conference. Every conference, I go to it, yeah. Yeah. And my last mention is, John Ladly did a presentation on big G, little G. So big governance, little governance, and how do you move from doing a number of projects to making it actually a part of the foundation of what you're doing? And he had some really good ideas, and some of that was part of conversations with Gwen Thomas, who's done a lot with governance. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I'd say probably many of you, because there are about 40 folks, I think, at Len's session. Next time you come along, try to get up a little bit early. It is a brilliant way to start the day in 30 minutes, but Matias' presentation was very much oriented towards sort of enterprise application of mindfulness, which, whereas Len's is more oriented to the individual. Yeah, I thought there was value in both of those.  It was lovely and heartening to see so many hands raised when the question about a department of one was posed. And it made me stop questioning what I was doing wrong and start thinking how I can subtly steal other colleagues and make them my pseudo team. Some of the presenters have just so casually used terms like marketing communications would partner with that. And I thought, we have a marketing team and I've never asked if they would market this for me, but they have 23 people and I'm one. So things like that, how can we be a little bit more sneaky, has maybe a negative connotation though. I don't know, maybe the department of events would define it differently, resourceful cunning. So who we can partner with who aren't under the data governance program but can enable us. And one of the things that we talked about amongst ourselves quite a bit was how the unfortunate situation of this pandemic has made clear a lot of the process inefficiencies. It's so easy for somebody to forward an email change and say, plus Kiyomi, well now it's my problem. They wouldn't have taken 20 minutes in the hallway to catch me up. So you can really kind of reframe that situation and come up with these little focus groups. You have every name in that email. You know who needs to fix the process and that can help give you your backlog for some of these little wins that we talk about. Thank you. All right, yes, David. Thanks. I've been coming to these for- I'll tell you what, since you're right up front, why don't you turn around? I've been coming to these free diversity events for, I don't know, 10, 12 years now and one of the things that's always very interesting to me is to see gradual long-term shifts in what topics or people are getting excited about. And even though we've been away for a couple years, I've been doing events online and quite suddenly here what I was seeing was a big interest all of a sudden in data strategy and data management strategy, which I think is very important because it begins to reflect a level of formal engagement with executive business leaders in driving the whole data governance, data management function. And the other piece that's been coming up a lot, I work in financial services so there's been a lot of conversation about ethical conduct over the years. But another big thing that is, quite frankly, financial services industry is lagging a bit in this, but the question of data ethics, what constitutes ethical access of data? What constitutes ethical usage of data? It's very nice to me to start seeing talks on data ethics in this particular conference. Good, yeah. That's the topic we've been tracking for so long and we ran some sessions four or five years ago and literally had a handful of people attending them, but now there's clearly a great deal more emphasis. And I think it comes from more than just the AI ethics. Everybody's heard about how algorithms gone bad can be so detrimental, but I think just much more generally, ethics has risen on the priority list. Okay, so is there anything in particular that any of you plan to do differently when you get back to your desk? Me? I got a whole list. I'll let any of the three of you answer Yeah, I've got a whole list of things. Where I'm currently at with radio systems is getting the message out, kind of growing my posse, growing the interest, make it exciting. So I've been looking for tips and hints on how to make data fun, how we can start gamifying, how we can earn badges, how I can get my communications across in a fun manner. Yeah. I've doubled down on communication. So I have invested some time in communications. I think I have a good start, but the two minute data, forget the exact term that they use, what I have most of what I've done today in communications are big blocks of things, right? Big blocks, more frequent, smaller, exactly smaller tidbits. That certainly resonates, especially, I was making this point a little bit ago, when my audience really has their own day job, the people who I want to chain to hearts and minds, they have their own day job, and they only have slices of attention to give to me on this subject. More smaller bits of information are certainly one of the things that I think I'll lean into. I'll kind of echo a comment that was made in the back. I think that these sessions, the ones that I've participated in are largely confirming that we're on the right track with what we're doing within my company, from a data governance structure, from a process perspective, from a metadata management data catalog perspective, and from a data quality perspective. So I got some additional reinforcement that were on the right track. So I don't have like some big aha moment that I've captured this far, but what I plan on doing, because there's a lot of good content that comes out from these sessions is when I have time, probably hopefully sometime next week is going through all the presentations.  And if I go through presentations and I see something that sticks out that I can immediately act on, maybe something I haven't thought of, or a next step I need to take on something, I put that in that short term list. And then other things that are more future thinking, things that I'm trying to think about, like master data management and think more three, four, five years out. If there's ideas that I find valuable from any of the content from these sessions, I'll kind of put that in that long term category. That way I've kind of fully digested. And then I go back through those notes and I figure out what things I plan on doing differently. So for me, I generally get done with this conference and I feel like it's information overload. So I've kind of kind of redigest some things. So that's the approach that I take to figure out what I need to do differently. Reflecting on Scott's session this morning. So I'm based in LA, got a couple of friends who are comedians and they do a little stand up or maybe they try and get a job on a sitcom. And listening to Scott this morning, I mean, we're all talking so much about communications. Everybody's like huge on this, but if we could figure out how to make data governance funny, like constructively amusing, it would be so effective in making the point. Mark, I know you're smiling under that mask there. Mark, a couple of years ago, wrote a song about data governance. I don't know if you ever performed that to a different group than one person, probably your wife or... But yeah, since we keep coming back to communication so often, I think quite seriously, okay, seriously, we need to be less serious about some of this stuff and at least make it a lot more fun. And so I'm gonna undertake when I get back to LA to talk to some people who write jokes, who tell stories that extract fun things out of situations and see what we could do to make this stuff resonate with people more effectively just by being fun. Yes? I'm gonna have to outsource that. Pardon me? I'm gonna have to outsource that, get someone else to write my jokes. Oh, goodness, I couldn't do it, but there are people who can make fun out of anything. Well, I have a recent success story about that, working with our executive team where I'm at now, and every data governance model has one of those lovely pyramids, and I happen to adore Bob's. And so I'm talking with our C-suite, and I said, you're not on this pyramid, you're above the pyramid. The pyramid was built to worship you. And they thought that was hilarious. Yeah, it helps it resonate, and it helps it connect with the target audience. Yeah, I mean, in general, kind of a serious bunch, and it's obviously a serious topic, but we've got to change the dynamic somehow.  So I don't know, I'm just, I'm thinking maybe there's another way. So we'll work on that. All right. By the way, there's actually quite a large LinkedIn group for this conference that has almost zero participation. And somebody asked me just this morning, you know, can we have a discussion group to continue some of the conversations? So I think it languishes because we frankly haven't put much effort into it, you know, don't have many resources, et cetera, so we haven't tried to cultivate it. If anybody would like to help us do that, I think we could carry on some of these conversations very constructively through that venue and, you know, maybe create some continuity to the conversation. All right. So whether we've discussed it here or not, I want to ask you folks, what do you see as the big issues coming down the pike that are going to affect data governance? I don't know if those are technologies like blockchain or if there are other, you know, seismic shifts, but, you know, where is data governance going to get pulled in in the future that we should be thinking about so that we can either future-proof the strategy or at least not be surprised when it arrives. So let's go the other way this time. Kim, if you've got any thoughts on that? Okay, yeah. Yeah, so we are getting exactly what we've been begging for. We need the business people to be tech-savvy. If they were just more tech-savvy, this would all be so much easier. Where I'm at, at radio systems, we are hiring tech-savvy people. You come in, you get a Tableau editor license. So now here we are, they're like, where's your data catalog, Kim? How do I connect this data? And so the issue I'm having, it's a good issue to have. It's exactly what we wanted to have happen, but now we're scrambling. So I'm hoping that this lights a fire under funding for things like data governance, like people get hired in, like how do you expect me to do my job when you don't have a data catalog? I'm supposed to talk to the IT department to figure out where my data is? I'm not doing that. So we're getting exactly what we wanted. So this means careful what you wish for. Yeah. It's here now. Excuse me, I'll offer a rather niche issue in research and development in the farm industry. There's new types of data, a lot of different types of data that are coming on the scene. Things like genomics, which kind of blur the line, like you talk about privacy data, for example, they in genomics, almost by definition, the data is only referring to you, but can you actually point back to me without some other source, like combining with the 23andMe or some of the online services? It's big, it's different. It is very personal. Does that mean we need different rules, different styles? It's very health care oriented, but that's an example of new types of data that are gonna require different rules, still structurally the same. It's still a governance problem, a privacy problem, still the same kind of rules, but it is different and I don't think we've netted out on how to manage that yet. So rather industry specific problem, but that's something that's coming down the pike for us. The trend that I'm seeing is I'm seeing data governance merge closer and closer to the business and I've heard it this week several times, but challenges with engagement. I think when a data governance program originates somewhere within the IT and then you try to get all these stewards engaged and involved, it's very challenging. I think more and more that are business cases for either data management or data governance initiatives are gonna have to tie to the company's overall business strategic initiatives. And usually that is, how can data governance or data management contribute to sales growth? How can it contribute to cost reduction? How can it contribute towards building your company's brand or providing better customer service? I'm seeing personally more and more the more I can connect what I'm doing to those business outcomes, the more people that are gonna wanna come with me on the journey. Just to follow up on what Hayes is saying about different types of data. Quick show of hands, how many folks are involved in governing external data? Okay. Unstructured data? Quite a few, okay, a lot more. How many folks here, for how many folks here is privacy part of your general portfolio? Okay, yeah, that one has come along to such a long way in just a couple of years. All right, we get, you know, speaking proposals on these things and I don't have a good way of measuring all the time the level to which people are interested in the topics, but all right.  All right, couple of hands there. We'll take the gentleman on the right first and then, yeah, yes, you said. Yeah, I think it's going to be a double punch of an increased regulatory environment around privacy and also with the proliferation of state and non-state actors when it comes to holding, you know, ransomware attacks and companies need to have a better sense of where their data assets are and making sure that this enterprise asset is governed, protected, available, and trustworthy. So that's my two cents. Thank you. Yeah, let me add quickly to my prior questions. How many of you are involved in more than just a peripheral way in data security issues? Okay, thanks, relatively few compared to the others. All right, so yes, Dave's gonna bring either the microphone there. So I don't think it's really broad. I think it's really maybe niche, but really polarizing is the vaccine passport or something along those nature. I mean, we did it here, right? We all had the validation process and it's not, there's no official entity that's signed up to do that in America. They're doing it in Europe and things and I mean, it's not really broad, right? How many attributes would that be? But it's really polarizing. So I could see that really blowing up for a certain space. Yeah, so as you might imagine, I've been paying a lot of attention to COVID issues over the past year and a half and it was really quite difficult to find the right tool to use to bring everybody back here. We settled on clear after for US attendees. So it only covers US, unfortunately. We had to do different things for our international folks. Then they had told us that we could track the folks who had signed up and got pre-clearance but what they didn't tell us or what they neglected to mention was the timing of that capability which was not gonna be until I think February of next year. So that's why we bombarded you with extra email messages to try to find out who had been registered, who had been cleared. But yeah, I mean, I think at this point it looks pretty likely that there's gonna be a lot of things that require vaccination. In LA, you have to have a vaccination proof to eat indoors now. You can eat outside without that but it's more and more pervasive. How many folks here are familiar with non-fungible tokens, NFTs? Okay. How many are familiar is probably the wrong way to phrase that question. But I was reading an article recently about the application of NFTs, essentially to data quality issues and assurance issues in an enterprise context. I mean, there's the whole crypto NFT thing where people are selling digital assets for millions of dollars but then it seems to me there's another application of NFTs in providing ways for there to be information integrity and digital assurance and various sorts. Have any of you had any exposures to have an opinion on that? At the state of Tennessee, it was a non-funded program but, and I typically do this everywhere I work, you have to glom on to those enterprise initiatives. So the example I have at Tennessee, we needed to share large volumes of data with external vendor. And they're like, well, we could put it in Dropbox or we could SFTP it or we could, and I'm like, why don't we drop it in Snowflake and they'll just come get it. And the vendor's like, yeah, that's super easy for us. So we got our lake, you know, and so I kind of look for those opportunities to tag along to everyone else's spending patterns. This is not, it is a story that happened in my company. It wasn't my project especially but it was around the blockchain idea and some of the contracts you can make in blockchain. And the way they use it, I thought was pretty clever, you have kind of a triumvirate of the patients, the sponsor like Daishi Sankyo and the provider at the hospital. And you want to recruit patients to get into clinical studies but the patients don't wanna reveal too much information and the hospitals like they don't want to commit themselves so they use this concept of contract and blockchain to be able to essentially let the patients reveal enough information that if the hospital and the sponsor all met the right amount of information the contact would be made so that their information, the patient's information especially wasn't ever disclosed until there was enough information or enough criteria met to be able to make that connection and that helped kind of preserve privacy, preserve, make that connection in a way that preserved everybody's interest at the same time. Still prototype, it was more than prototype but not scaled yet but I thought that was a really interesting idea around the blockchain area. The company I work at, we don't have any specific use cases but we do have a department that is specifically focused on innovation that is looking at pretty much any emerging technology that you can think of and they go and they'll do proof of concepts and they'll partner with vendors to try things out so we don't have a specific one yet but I mean it is something we've looked at since it is an emerging tech. Yeah, for those of you who raised your hands and are familiar with NFTs any opinions on whether there are applications within an enterprise around data governance? No? Okay. Yeah, I'm gonna track that one myself too because I have a personal interest in it. Let me invite any of you to throw in a question here. What thoughts do you have at the moment unanswered questions? Yes, right in the middle. Since I deal in the financial industry there is a lot of activity happening around bringing on other vendors coming in and wanting access to our data, et cetera. Has DGIO ever thought about having any type of sessions around contractual type of things that you need to put into protections for data so that your quality of data, your security of your data, all that type of things is contractually working with your vendors that way because everywhere you go you kind of hear some certain clauses you should have in your contracts, certain clauses that you shouldn't have in your contracts and I know some guidance around that. Even our legal teams are kind of like, data is kind of new to their world as well and so it'd be kind of interesting to see if there was something around that. Yeah, so often at this conference we've had a lawyer by the name of Bill Tannenbaum who specializes actually in issues specifically like the one that you mentioned. I'll dig up some of his prior material for you and we can share that. But the latest there is probably a couple of years old. I can check in with Bill and see what he's been doing recently because I imagine that that area of the law has probably changed substantially since then. You're particularly interested in the question from a contracting standpoint. Yeah, it just says, data officers, what should we be kind of looking for as we're reviewing those contracts, send them some lessons for them and there are some tips and advice to ensuring that you're not doing a certain thing or that you're doing something that you need for them? Okay. Especially as we start going to a federal work or we're getting into data lakes where we tend to be exposing vendors so that they can come in and get that information or putting it somewhere or getting to it and see what they do with it and how they handle it because in life in our case, the data that they're wanting to see is our customer base. So we have to be protective, legally, regularly, for you to ensure that the crisis is kept on that and that the securities kept on that information. Yeah. And so our contracts have been like that. So you've got the legal issue, the compliance issue, the data issue, and the CEOs kind of have to look at all of that. Tony, I can add a little bit to that. We have a data classification policy within our organization that's focused on classifying data by its sensitivity. So data can either be restricted or sensitive or nonsensitive or public. Those are our four categories. And what we've done is we're in insurance so we deal with a lot of sensitive data like PII and PHI and such. And what we've done is we've kind of mapped our classification to our data agreements. So if a given third party is dealing with all public data, maybe they don't need to sign any additional agreements. If they're dealing with PII, then there's an additional agreement they'll need to sign. If they're dealing with PHI, there's an additional agreement. So we try to tie access in our contracts with the corresponding sensitivity classification of our data. And we found that pretty helpful. Okay, I think there's another question. Yes, Sarah. So I've been biotech and I've recently been asked about governing markings. So we have different markings, whether it's a CE mark, whether it's like identifying hazardous material. But these aren't really, it's not data I'd previously ever governed. And so I don't know if anyone, has anyone come across any of those types of things or gotten questions about governing that kind of data? You were in biohaze, you know? Yeah, I don't have that one. Okay, yeah. Is, does markings have a specific? Yeah, they are. So for example, the CE mark is to identify this is product to be sold in Europe. There's also different like hazardous markings to explain whether you have like maybe lithium batteries. But there's all sorts of markings that appear on labels and they're getting more and more complex and they're becoming more specific to each country. For some odd reason, they don't seem to all have alignment on the markings. But it came to me and I just was like, you know, from my regulatory group and I just didn't have an answer. I was curious if anyone else had experienced that. Okay. Sorry, we don't have a good answer for you on that one. Anybody else have questions before we wind up? All right. Well, most of you will be here over the next couple of days, I know. So please keep the conversations going. At this point, we can wrap up the formal conference portion of our agenda. And I'll say again, it's been wonderful to have you all back. I hope the next couple of days are productive for you too and that we see you at an event in 2022. So thank you.


Hello, psych2goers. We just want to take the time to thank you for all your kind support. We are a team of dedicated, passionate, and hard-working individuals who come together every day with one goal in mind. We want to make psychology come alive for you. We are self-funded and recently launched our Patreon. If you enjoy the work we do and find it meaningful, please stick around until the end of this video for information on how to get more involved with us and all the cool rewards you can get from us. We hope you enjoy this video. Do you ever think about why you're more inclined to attract or be attracted to certain types of people? Or why the people you've dated in the past weren't as compatible with you as you thought? Love involves constant choice, commitment, and work. Which all demand an intuitive understanding both of your partner and of yourself.  The intent of learning about attachment styles isn't to box love up neatly into categories, nor does it mean you're stuck with one attachment style forever. In fact, it's important to note that as time goes on, your attachment style can change from the way you evolve as a lover. If things have become fragile between you and your partner, realize that this is your chance to grow. Here are the four attachment styles in love. Number one, secure. When you have a secure attachment style, you have a great advantage in love. You feel comfortable going to your partner when something is off and in return you allow your partner absolute freedom. People with a secure attachment style tend to have honest, open, and equal relationships where both partners can thrive and grow together at a healthy pace. They understand how to merge together to form a stable ground they can stand and operate on. This probably sounds too good to be true, but security is not to be confused with perfection. People with a secure attachment style experience conflict and bad days just like any other couple, but what sets them apart is their higher emotional intelligence that helps them communicate their feelings effectively and their ability to problem solve rather than attacking their partners. Essentially, they're highly resilient individuals who understand how to move past obstacles with great care and self-awareness. Number two, anxious preoccupied. People with an anxious preoccupied attachment style tend to romanticize love because it's easier for them to form a fantasy bond with someone instead of something based off a reality. They are often attracted to partners they can save, or in some cases, those who can save them. People who have an anxious preoccupied attachment style can be demanding, obsessive, and clingy. They're prone to over-analyzing situations, having mood swings, and often mistake turbulent relationships for passion. They can struggle from insecurities, low self-esteem, and establishing a strong sense of self because they grew up without healthy boundaries and little to no guidance on nurturing their individuality. Number three, dismissive avoidant. People with a dismissive avoidant attachment style tend to be emotionally distant in relationships. They come across as self-sufficient, independent, and can avoid true intimacy. Although space is essential for two people to breathe and be themselves in any relationship, people with a dismissive avoidant attachment style can seek it more frequently to push themselves away from being vulnerable with their partner.  But extreme independence is an illusion because humans need connection in order to survive. As a result, people with an avoidant dismissive attachment style have very few close relationships with others. Number four, fearful avoidant. People with a fearful avoidant attachment style experience a delicate mixture, fearing being both too close or too distant from their lover. They can be unpredictable and are often overwhelmed by their own emotions. They understand they have to approach others in order to find love, but when people get too close to them, they often hurt them. They fear being abandoned but struggle with being confident in their partner and relying on them. They face a lot of inner conflict between wanting intimacy and resisting it. As a result, they usually experience many highs and lows in relationships, cling to their partners when they feel rejected, and if not, careful can end up in abusive relationships. Similar to the dismissive avoidant attachment style, these individuals have very few close relationships with others. Accepting what your attachment style is and recognizing the work that comes with it can be life-changing and powerful. And we hope that this information can teach you to become more self-aware and help you become a better lover.

Hey, guys, welcome to a new live stream with international taffle and TESOL training. My name is Lisa and today we're going to discuss a rather important topic, how to utilize your taffle certificate at 100% to make more income. And while waiting for some more people to join us, I would like to briefly introduce myself. So let me change the slide quickly. So here it is. If you don't know me yet, here I am. My name is Lisa. I'm an ESL teacher. I'm also an ESL marketing consultant. And I work as a taffle and TESOL expert at ITTT. So these live streams are regular. We deliver them twice a week. I go live usually on Tuesday and my colleague Linda goes live on Thursday or Friday. So if you want to get some interesting tips on taffle teaching, taffle certification, feel free to join in either on Tuesday or on Friday, Thursday, or both days. We will be really happy to have you. And we will try our best to help you out if you have some doubts or questions. And as I have mentioned, today's live stream is devoted to five interesting ideas how to use your taffle certification at 100% to make more income. So let me change the slide once again. And yeah, by the way, I am located in the Ural region of Russia in a beautiful city called Yekaterinburg. And today it is actually snowy. What about your locations? Let me know where are you tuning in from? And also, I am really curious what's the weather like today, because I know that we are from all over the world and it is actually quite different in different parts of the world today. So let's share. I would really love to interact with the community. And if you share your locations, your names, whatever, just say hi in the comment section. It will help me a lot. So yeah, just in terms of communication, you know, we've got this comment section. And if you have any questions, if you want to reach out to me as a speaker, you can totally use that section and I will read it and try my best to help you out. And I can actually see a couple of comments right now. Thanks a lot, guys, for reaching out. Thanks a lot for saying your greetings. I am really, really pleased and I always feel really inspired when I see familiar faces. All right, so there are people from Dubai, from Egypt, okay, and from Malaysia. That's awesome. Thanks a lot for joining in. I hope that today's session will be helpful and you will get some interesting insights. So let's actually start. And yeah, here you can see the ITTT's information. We are actually presented on different social media. So if you want to check out some useful content on YouTube, you can go there and see our different folders and stuff. And if you prefer checking out the feed, you can totally subscribe to our Facebook or Instagram. We try to be active and helpful on various social media. So that's pretty much. All right, so I can see that there are a lot of people watching right now. Thanks a lot, guys, for joining in and let's start today's presentation. So basically, there are not many unique ideas. I would say that almost all of them are pretty common, but I just want to make it, I just wanted to sound more reasonable probably because not many people understand how to utilize the tappel certification after being certified. And at the same time, some people believe that it is absolutely useless. I'm here to change this opinion and change this attitude. So basically, the very first idea is super simple and it is straight forward.  The very first step for you to do is to find a position and to start working online. Well, basically, you can work in a real classroom as well. But the idea is that online teaching is more common these days due to different situations happening all over the world. Like, for example, in Russia, we will have a new lockdown beginning in November.  That is why many in-class teachers go teaching online. There are two main options. The very first and probably the easiest way would be to find an employment, to find whether, well, let's say, to find a teaching school like a learning center or something represented online and to work for them, maybe an online platform, whatever. Another idea would be to do it completely as a freelancer. And to me, this approach appeals most because this way, you are in charge of your own income and you can make more money this way because you can get, you can set your own price depending on your location or on your student's location. And, well, it depends how many students you actually teach. So the more you work, the more you get. But probably it is not the best approach in terms of your time management, you know, and work-life balance. But anyway, the point of today's session is to understand how to make money after being TEFL certified and how can you use your TEFL certification as a freelancer? So basically, you should show it off and say everyone that you are not just a person from the street who knows English pretty good, but you have to, well, explain your clients, your future clients, that you have this certification and you are eligible to work in any part of the world because you know methodology, you know how to organize lessons and how to create content. So that's probably the easiest way to get your investments back. All right, thanks a lot guys for sharing your comments. I'm really happy that you are here and I am actually in the middle of my tip, of the first tip, but right now I'm going to move forward. So the first idea is the easiest one. But anyway, the more you work, the more you get. So if you want your TEFL certificate to work, you have to work as well. That's pretty easy. And if you're interested in different options like where to teach, how to teach and stuff, you can check out our previous live streams. Linda, my colleague Linda, and I actually created a lot of videos and a lot of content related to teaching positions and teaching platforms for English teachers to work online. All right, let's see the next idea. And by the way, guys, if you have any questions related to today's topic or to TEFL certification in general, feel free to comment. I will try my best to help you after the main presentation. So we will have this Q&A session at the end. So just make sure you share your opinion or you ask your question during this presentation. I will get back to them. All right, so the next idea, how to make money using your TEFL certification is also pretty obvious, but not many people think about it right after getting TEFL certified or right before getting TEFL certified. But basically, you can use it as a business owner. You can try to start your online business before getting TEFL certified and then utilize this certification as a reason why clients should trust you, why people should work with you, or you can use it the same way right after getting TEFL certified. Of course, it seems pretty challenging to start your own business, especially online, but there are many useful tips and answers how to do so online. So just make sure you check out different resources. Online business is actually flourishing these days and it is not that difficult to start as soon as possible. So feel free to check out our previous live streams. We also talked about it well in different live streams. And yeah, basically you can open your online school or you can create digital products as a blogger. So if you follow different influencers on social media like Instagram or YouTube, those people actually create a lot of content. Some of that content is for free, but if their followers really like the content, they may actually pay some money like donations, for example, or at the same time, they can buy some specific products, some specific digital products. And this is the way people get money online as well. So you as a teacher can think about some possible digital products, digital things you can sell online. And I would say that the easiest way would be to distribute it on various platforms like teachers pay teachers. So if you are pretty creative and if you know how to create your own lessons, you can basically create lessons and then sell them online on marketplaces or even on your personal website. And that's it probably in terms of your own business. But I would say that the beginning of your own business seems to be almost the same as freelancing. So when you're a freelancer, you have to work a lot. You have to find clients yourself. You have to have skills to sell your services and stuff. That's pretty much the same as when you start your own startup or like a small business. You still have to do the same things and just promote your services this way or products. Let's continue. And yeah, the third idea is closely connected to my point about creating materials. So these days, this job is really in great demand. For example, here in Russia, we have a lot of online schools opening and everyone needs a methodologist who actually knows how to create lessons, how to structure lessons and not just single lessons, but also general courses. So for example, I am an online business owner. I start my online school and I would like students to follow a specific curriculum. So I hire a methodologist who creates this curriculum, who knows how to structure it logically. And then as a consequence, I have this set of ideas. Then I will probably hire a designer and other people to pack this course and then I will sell it. So that's like a really brief description of how online schools work. But you can be a part of this project and you can offer your services as a methodologist. It's a really great job and these days, methodologists can actually work as freelancers. They can also get hired by online schools. But all in all, what you have to do really well is methodology. And basically, if you have your TAPL certification, it means that you have the methodological basis. Because ITTT, if you obtain your TAPL certification with ITTT, we have this methodological basis in all of our courses. So if you got this training, then you have this idea how to structure lessons in a logical way. And this is a really great skill you can transform into money. So basically, the easiest idea would be to get a job in an online school or create your online material as a methodologist and sell them as well. So that's it. If you guys have any questions or if you want to comment my ideas, feel free to do so. Yeah. Okay, so let's keep going probably. And yeah, before I continue my presentation, I just want to mention that if you're watching this live stream right now, it means that you have this unique possibility to get a 30% discount of any TAPL courses online. So if you want to get TAPL certified, you can screenshot. You can follow this QR code from the top right corner. Or you can also copy the link from the chat box. Just give me a second to drop it over there. So just a second. I haven't prepared the link for some reason, sorry. All right, so here we go. If you need to get TAPL certified and if you want to do it cheaper with a nice bonus, you can follow the link from the chat box. And yeah, and you will get this discount of any online TAPL courses with ITTT. Just make sure you save the link and yeah, and you will be good. Okay, let me continue my presentation. The next point, how you can also make money out of your TAPL certification is becoming a copywriter. Well, basically, there are not many copywriters who can actually do some solid copies. Well, especially it depends on their English skills. But at the same time, it is vital to know the sphere. So basically you guys, if you got TAPL certified, it means that you have a pretty fluent level of English, a high level of English, you know how the language works. And at the same time, you know this field, you know the educational sphere. It can make you a great copywriter because you can combine two different skills in one specific job. So you can write professional texts for teachers, for like bloggers or for different online resources. For example, almost every website for teachers has a blog there or has like, you know, some written content. And the chances are that this content is written by a copywriter. Sometimes copywriters don't do a great job just because they are general copywriters. So you can have this benefit of being a person who knows the sphere from the inside because you actually teach people and you know how it generally works. So you can work as a copywriter for an online teaching company, for an online school that has this representation over different social media or what else. You can also work for them as a web copywriter and do texts for their online blogs. You can also work with teachers, teacher bloggers, like those people who have personal blogs on different social media or just on the web and also create solid texts for them. And it's a great way to make some extra money. So if you don't have this copywriting job as a full-time job, so you can just make some extra or vice versa, you can find this full-time employment as a copywriter and you will also utilize your skills after the table certification. Yeah, that's probably the greatest idea that appeals to me most because I really like to write texts and it is a vital skill actually to develop. But many people neglect doing that and this will also help you when you teach your students to write. Usually students don't like to write and for example, I have many issues with my ESL students when we start preparing for exam essay writings and stuff. I just give my personal example that sometimes I do a copywriting job and it's a great skill to make some extra cash. And this is the way I try to motivate my students. I think it's a great idea to show that every skill can be monetized. So yeah, you can also try to do that. Okay, and the last idea I would like to share with you today is a job of a content producer. So basically, if you know how the online business works, you may have already heard about this position. Almost every company or a project, a personal project of a blogger, for example, has a person who is in charge of content, in charge of the content production. And what they actually do is a really complex set of responsibilities. They have to prepare a content plan for like a month or some more time. What else? They also have to manage such people as social media manager, then copywriters, designers and stuff. So it's like a manager who creates ideas and then who manages people that get these ideas into real life. So you can manage the production in an ad tech company, for example, or you can work with personal with individual brands, like with bloggers or who else? Let me think, usually with bloggers. And yeah, this is also the way how you can make some more cash or you can have this job as your full-time job. So basically, if you get taffle certified, you get some specific skills related to the teaching position, but it doesn't mean that you have to teach forever for the rest of your life. For some people, some other fields that are connected to teaching can be useful. And I would recommend looking at that direction because it can be not just easier in terms of income or like more profitable in terms of income. It can also be much more interesting. So just think about it. These are some ideas, how you can make some extra income or some more cash. But in general, all of your skills that you obtain with the taffle certification can be used in other fields as well, in other positions as well, not just English teaching. Yeah, that's probably it. I think that I'm done talking here. I also want to, well, hear from you. If you have any feedback, if you have any questions related to today's topic or related to the taffle certification in general, feel free to ask whatever questions come to your mind. I will try my best to help you and you can see this QR code once again. If you want to get a discount of 30% of any ITTT courses, feel free to scan this QR code or you can use the link from the chat box. Yeah, and that will be fine. I think it's a really nice incentive. It's a really nice gift because this opportunity works just during these live stream sessions specifically for those people who come to the live stream sessions. So make sure you use it. And now let me see the chat box because I saw there are some questions there right now. All right, guys, I'm super happy to hear that the weather is fine in various parts of the world. And I'm really happy to know that we are guys truly global. That's so cool. I like to communicate with the global community, with the international community. This is the way I practice my English on a regular basis, first of all. And yeah, what else? Yeah, let's see. That's a great question. I hope to pronounce your name correctly, Aicha. If I mispronounce it, just let me know in the comments section. And apologies. So what's the difference between ITTT and ITTI? Basically, these are two different companies. Frankly speaking, I don't know anything about the second one, but this company that I work for and that I represent right now is called TEFL, International TEFL and TESOL Training. And you can see our logo right here in the center of the QR code. Yeah. And our website is right here in the comments section. Let me actually copy the link once again. So if you're curious about different options we offer, just feel free to follow the link from the comments section. And that's it. All right. And Chi-Pen Lim asks a great question as well. Thank you. So you've got a TEFL certification of 120 hours. It's the basic requirement for teachers actually to have at least 120 hours. And it means that you can start teaching online and you can work as a teacher in a real classroom all over the world. So basically any teaching certification with at least 120 hours allows you to work either online or in a real classroom. So I hope that my answer is full and helpful. Okay. All right. Thanks a lot, guys. Thanks a lot for sharing your feedback. I really appreciate it. And by the way, if you have any questions related to today's content, to the ideas how to get your investments back after getting TEFL certified, feel free to ask or feel free to comment. And there is another question. All right. So basically, what are the benefits? If you are not TEFL certified, the chances are you don't have the knowledge of methodology, which is the most important requirement for English teachers, especially if you weren't trained as an English teacher before. You know, there are many people who actually get this education in an authorized institution like a university, an educational department or something like that. So if you got your major, if you majored in a different field, you don't know how to teach. You know English, but you don't know how to deliver this information to other people. You don't know how to explain it in a professional manner. That is why you have to get TEFL certified or otherwise you have to go to university and study for four years or like for six years, you know. Yeah. That's probably the most crucial point why people should get TEFL certified. Yeah. So if you want to teach, you have to know how to do it. You have to know the methodology. You have to know how to manage your classroom. What else? You have to know some basic things related to English like linguistically as well. And that's what is included in the TEFL certification, in the TEFL certification course. The other point is important in terms of certification is that it prepares you to different situations in your classroom. For example, if you get the general TEFL certification of 120 hours, you will learn how to work with various groups of people like, but it will be some basic training, but you will know how to deliver information to adults, how to work with younger students, and at the same time how to manage, let's say, teenagers or elderly. So these are different types of students. These are different types of learners in terms of their abilities, you know. And you also have to be able to versatile. You have to be able to distinguish between them because what is useful for young kids can't be used with adults even if they have the same level of English. That's probably it. And of course, these ideas will be useful, like this skills and knowledge will be useful when you decide to work not just as a teacher, but as a methodologist, for example.  So you need to train specifically to work with people this way. Okay. So, Aisha, I hope that I answered your question. If not, please try to give some more details and I will try my best to answer it again. Okay. All right. So, basically, teaching in a specific place requires you to check out their requirement, the country's requirement. So in every country, they have different regulations. And I always recommend that you guys be proactive and go to the country's embassies. Check out the requirements for English teachers or for other positions you want to apply for. So, that's probably the first step how to work. Also, on our website, we have a section. Let me quickly share the link to the section. So we have this section called Table Employment. Just one second. Let me share it right now. So we have this section for Hong Kong. And if you are curious about some, if you're curious about different positions in Hong Kong, you can actually check out this link right now. So this is for general information. We try to update the positions regularly. And you can actually find a new position that was published in September. So you will get some understanding what are the main requirements for teaching in Hong Kong. But at the same time, what I suggested before that you have to go to the embassies platforms and check out the requirements there, they also are applied. So make sure you check different sources and how ITTT can help as well. You can check out our Facebook group. We publish different job prospects on a regular basis there as well. So if they are not on the website, you can find them on the Facebook group. That's probably it. And it is for free, absolutely. So you don't have to pay for such positions. You know, some companies, some tough companies, they actually share jobs, share prospects just with their current students or graduates. But ITTT does that for free for everyone who is actually interested. But at the same time, we have a personalized approach to graduates. So if you graduated from ITTT's TAPL courses, you get your personalized job support. And you will have this job support for free like during the lifetime. You will get an access to a special web platform where we share some more content and a piece of advice for those people who want to find the job but don't know how to start, you know. So these are some general ideas how you can benefit from working with ITTT. Okay, so let me see the next question. All right. All right. As for this question, thanks a lot for asking once again. Thanks for being active. I really like to, you know, assist and explain everything. So generally speaking, you won't need to start it all over again from scratch because you have already got this basis. On the website, you can check out the diploma option. If you are TAPL certified, you are like 100% sure, don't have to get the general certification once again. But it is actually distributed as a complementary course. So what I recommend to do is to reach out our TAPL manager. You can actually send your question, send your request for an update for, not an update but, you know, for an upgrade. Yeah. You can send your question here. So this is my email at ITTT. So you can send your request here and I will forward it to the manager who works with courses and graduates. So I will try my best to find an option. But you can also check out this link. Okay, one second. It is our diploma course. If you have already been TAPL certified, you will just need to get the general course, not the general course, but those points that you haven't worked on in your initial certification. And yeah, then you will get a different certificate after completing all of the necessary units. Okay. So that's probably it. But once again, if you have some further questions, feel free to ask as well. Yeah, basically, letter is right. There are more options. If you have this TAPL certification, you can be so flexible. Well, for example, I am an example here. So initially, I was just an English teacher and I got TAPL certified with ITTT in 2017. At that time, I worked as a classroom teacher in China as an English teacher in a real classroom. Then I decided to go online. I ran my personal blog on social media first. Then I found this position in ITTT. And I could actually utilize my skills that I obtained that I obtained during the TAPL course first, and then my skills related to teaching in a real classroom, like apart from what I knew after TAPL certification. Then I also learned something about blogging and stuff. And finally, I can implement my skills as a TAPL expert and as a marketing manager. So there are many ways how you can benefit from TAPL certification. All right, guys. Do you have any further questions? So if you do, make sure you send them right now because that's probably the end of the presentation. That's for sure the end of the presentation. And it might be the end of the Q&A session. So if you don't ask your questions right now, you will have to wait for an answer. Well, as a comment, as a feedback to your comment, as a reply. What I would like to say as well, yeah, I haven't mentioned that I have a group on Facebook for those who are interested in online teaching and stuff. So this is a friendly invitation to my group. Feel free to scan the QR code or otherwise I will also drop down the link. Yeah, check out the link. If you are not on the Facebook group yet, join in. I'm trying to create this teaching activity, not teaching activity, teaching community. So if you have some questions related to teaching in general, online teaching, online marketing for teachers or stuff like that, you can send your questions to the Facebook group. And hopefully the community will assist you. Or I will create a post or another video for that. So yeah, that's how I try to be helpful apart from these live streams. And I always appreciate your messages on Facebook. I'm okay if somebody reaches me out this way as well using the direct messenger. It's okay too if you want to keep in touch. Okay, just make sure that when you join the group, you answer all of the questions related to that allowance to the group. Because the group is closed and I try to filter people. Sometimes different bots join the group and that's not the best way. And yeah, and the content is also not for everyone, just for those who is motivated and interested. And yeah, that's probably it. Alright guys, so I don't see any further questions in the comments box. So that's probably it. Thanks a lot for your feedback. If you have your feedback later, you can also direct message me. I will really appreciate it. Thanks a lot guys. That's the end of today's live stream. If you watch it as a recording or if you listen to this live stream as a podcast, thanks a lot for downloading. Thanks a lot for reaching out to the content. I hope to see you next week. If you have any requests in terms of topics, you can also suggest me using my group or through the direct messages or just in the comments section here. If your topic is relevant and it might be interesting for the audience, for the general audience, I will do this full live stream devoted to your question. And that can be also a way to work on your problem. Okay, so that's it for today. Thanks a lot for coming and see you soon once again. Bye bye.


Hello and welcome to the session. Let us discuss the following question. It says find the derivative of the following function The given function is sin x plus cos x upon sin x minus cos x to find the derivative of this function We'll be using quotient rule and the derivative of the function u by v with respect to x is given by v into derivative of u with respect to x minus u into derivative of v with respect to x upon v square. So this knowledge will work as key idea Let us now move on to the solution We have to find the derivative of this function with respect to x.  So it is sin x minus cos x whole square now Again, this is equal to sin x minus cos x into derivative of sin x plus cos x now derivative of sin x is cos x and the derivative of cos x is minus sin x. So this becomes cos x minus sin x plus u that is sin x plus cos x into derivative of sin x minus cos x now derivative of sin x is cos x and derivative of cos x is minus sin x. So minus of minus sin x will become plus sin x upon v square that is sin x plus cos x it's minus minus cos x whole square Which is again equal to taking minus common from this we have minus of cos x minus sin x into cos x minus sin x and here we have minus So we are also we have minus minus sin x plus cos x whole square upon sin x minus cos x whole square and this is again equal to minus of cos x minus sin x whole square minus sin x plus cos x whole square upon sin x minus cos x whole square again equal to minus of Applying the formula of a minus b whole square we have cos square x plus sin square x minus 2 sin x cos x minus Now we are applying the formula of a plus b whole square we have sin square x plus cos square x plus 2 sin x into cos x upon sin x minus cos x whole square Again this is equal to minus of we know that cos square x plus sin square x is 1 so this thing becomes 1 minus 2 sin x cos x minus again sin square x plus cos square x becomes 1 plus 2 sin x cos x upon sin x minus cos x whole square Now we open the brackets So this becomes minus 1 plus 2 sin x cos x minus 1 minus 2 sin x cos x upon sin x minus cos x whole square Now plus 2 sin x cos x gets cancelled with minus 2 sin x cos x and we have minus 2 in the numerator as minus 1 minus 1 is minus 2 upon sin x minus cos x whole square Hence the derivative of the given function is minus 2 upon sin x minus cos x whole square and this completes the question bye for now take care have a good day


Suppose we want to find the volume of a cylinder, well a cylinder we could consider as a solid revolution after all. I mean if we take the x-axis right here and we take some type of rectangle sitting above the x-axis, the height of the rectangle, we think of as the radius of the cylinder and then the length of the rectangle would be the height of the said cylinder right? And we rotate this around the x-axis. This would form a cylindrical type object right? We would get something that looks like the following. Apologize for my crudeness there, but the height of the rectangle of the cylinder will be h and the radius of the cylinder would likewise be r. But what's the problem with this type of reasoning? We can we certainly can do that but when you think about it the disc method and the washer method although this would be disc in this context, the disc method is based upon the fact that we know how to find the volume of a cylinder pi r squared h right? And so it would kind of be circular reasoning, sorry no pun intended there, that in order to find the volume of a cylinder we have to already know the volume of a cylinder. So if we wanted to sort of take a different perspective to find the volume of the cylinder that perhaps avoids this logical problem, it might be useful to think of a circle, sorry to think of a cylinder instead as a stack of circles that are sitting on top of each other.  If you put these things on top of each other you can make a cylinder and thus a cylinder is essentially we just take the cylinder and you can slice it into smaller and smaller and smaller and smaller things as well, smaller prisms so to speak. Where this prism you're going to take the area of the circle and then you're going to times it by the thickness which in this case would be like a dx or dy depending on how you orient it. So what I mean here is we can think of the cylinder as a stack of circles that is the cylinder as a continuum of cross-sectional areas. In particular if we subdivide the cylinder into these cross-sectional discs with uniform thickness we can then calculate the volume of the cylinder by integrating this area times the thickness of each of these discs as x ranges from A to B. And if you think about that the area of a circle is typically this pi r squared dx right where for a cylinder the radius doesn't change as you go from one circle to another this would then give us this value pi h squared pi r squared h kind of like so. And so this the strategy of using cross-sectional slicing to calculate the volume of a solid of any kind can be very useful and this also allows us to move away from solids of revolution. So take a look at this picture right here which is taking courtesy of James Stewart's calculus textbook. I think this is from the seventh edition although it's in most of the editions of the textbook. Imagine we have some solid you look at this picture right here there is no rotational symmetry going on here but the idea is whatever whatever the shape turns out to be we can cross-sectionally slice it, slice it, slice it, slice it in the way that we're doing right here in which case we then get this cross-sectional area like this. And we can think of the solid as just a continuum of all of these different cross-sectional slices like if we were to take an apple or a banana we just slice into those little pieces here. The whole together forms original solid but we can study these cross-sectional slicing individually. Now imagine we could come up with a function a of x that could capture the area of each cross-sectional slice. Well then if we took the integral of that area function with respect to the thickness dx that would give us the volume. Now the disc and washer method we've seen before is a specialization of this. For the disc method your area function a of x here is just pi r squared where the radius here is just a function of x. Well we can approach other problems where the area function doesn't necessarily have to come from this rotational this rotational consideration as well. And so let's look at an example of this and yes I'm going to look at a sphere in this situation. A sphere we could find the volume as a solid of revolution but we rotate a semicircle around the x axis. But let's try it with this cross-sectional approach right we could think of a sphere much like a cylinder a sphere is gonna be a stack of circles but the circles will change their radius dependent on where they are in the tower. These ones are positioned horizontally again these are also images taken from James Stewart's calculus textbook and so we can try to make a prediction on what the volume of a sphere would be as thinking of these stacks this this this continuum of circles. You see three approximations of the sphere in front of you right here. There's an approximation with five discs ten discs and 20 discs as well and it dole converge towards the true volume of the sphere as you get more and more and more disc. So we'll take for granted we have the volume of a cylinder which we could do by this cross-sectional slicing like we saw on the previous slide but if we treat this as these cross-sectional circles these discs what would the volume look like? The volume would look like the integral from the integral of ax dx like so and so the idea we have is the following we start off with a circle of radius r circle of radius r like so and we're gonna slice this thing perpendicular to the x axis let's say that the center of the circle is zero zero and so we take these perpendicular slices like this right and so if we were to take any one of these slices and look from a different angle it would look like a circle but if you turn it it would look like it's just way through thin right the thickness here it's just gonna be a dx so what's gonna be the area of this circle the area of the circle is gonna be pi r squared but the radius of this circle depends where it is along the x-axis so if we go along the x-axis here we'll add a specific moment x the y-coordinate up here so you have this point x comma y the y-coordinate is going to give us the radius of this circle so this circle is gonna have an area of pi y squared and so we would integrate pi y squared dx like so and then how do our x values change we go from x equals negative r which is the left side of the circle and then we come over here to the right side x equals r and so now we have to consider how do we represent oh I wrote a lot an r when I meant to wrote a y earlier so this right here should be a pi y squared like so as x ranges from negative r to capital r how do we represent y as a function of x well this is where that semi-circle approach comes into play here if we think of the unit circle as x squared plus y squared I guess it's not the unit circle because the radius is r here if we solve for y we're gonna get the square root of r squared minus x squared like so we're gonna insert that in for y squared and if you're worried that having a square root it's gonna make the anti-derivative difficult while we're squaring the square root so that's gonna disappear giving us the integral from negative r to r we get pi times r squared minus x squared dx and this is the thing that we're gonna try to integrate now for the sake of symmetry because I mean the sphere is symmetrical right if we take the y-axis as this line of symmetry right here the volume of one side is equal to the volume of the other so using that symmetry we can actually rewrite this integral as 2 pi I brought the pi out the integral from 0 to r of r squared minus x squared dx like so basically we're using the fact that we're integrating a cement an even function along a symmetric integral an interval and so if we integrate this the integral of r squared with respect to x is just gonna be an r squared x because we're treating r squared as constant the anti-derivative of negative x squared with respect to x will be negative x cubed over 3 as we go from 0 to r plug it in the r there we get 2 pi we're gonna get an r cubed minus r cubed over 3 factor out the common factor of r cubed we get 2 pi r cubed and we're left behind a 1 minus a third 1 minus a third is 2 thirds and this then gives us the standard formula for a 4 thirds pi r cubed which is again the standard formula for a sphere which we can use we can we found this formula using this idea of cross sectional slicing it's pretty neat isn't it
