So let's make an amazing breakfast, lunch and dessert for this week's meal prep. So for my breakfast this week, I'm making overnight oats. This is going to be super simple for me to eat the next couple of days before I fly out for my plastic surgery. So I'm only going to be making two servings.  It actually makes four, but because I'm not going to be here, we're going to half it and make two. So let me show you what you'll need. First you're going to need rolled oats, honey, milk of your choice. I always use fair life milk because it has protein and I'm all about adding in as much protein as possible. I'm also going to add in some non-fat Greek yogurt for extra protein chia seeds. You'll need a couple of storage containers for your overnight oats, some salt. I actually just bought this little salt and pepper holder off of Amazon. It is so cute. It's in acacia wood. I want to say it was less than $10. So I'll link it down below if you're interested and then you'll need some cinnamon as well. So to put our overnight oats together, super, super simple. Again, remember I did half the recipe for two overnight oats. So I'm going to add one cup of rolled oats, one cup of my fair life milk, half of a cup of non-fat plain Greek yogurt, one and a half tablespoons of honey. You could also use sugar-free maple syrup. I'm just going to use honey. It's a real whole food and it's going to add the perfect sweetness, some ground cinnamon, salt and about a tablespoon of chia seeds. And then we're going to stir all of that together until fully mixed. And then you're just going to divide your mixture evenly between the two jars or storage containers for your overnight oats. So here are the two overnight oats. Now what you can do is top these with any toppings of your choice, dried fruit, fresh fruit, nuts, nut butter. I'm definitely going to be adding some fruit to mine, probably some walnuts to give it a little bit of heart, healthy fat and some crunch, but the possibilities are endless with this recipe and it is so easy to put together. So I will go ahead and put points, calories, macros here on the screen for the overnight oats, of course, with no additional toppings for my lunch for the next couple of days. I'm actually going to put together a shrimp, Buddha, bowl. Again, I will link the original recipe for the full amount of servings. I am going to put together two bowls for the next couple of days. This recipe is going to give you lots of protein, fiber, and get in lots and lots of vegetables. You're going to need some oil of your choice, avocado oil, olive oil. You're also going to need quinoa. If you would like, you could also substitute rice, Dijon mustard, honey, apple cider vinegar, lemon, pepper, butternut squash. I like to buy mine pre-cut up, ready to go. You'll need some kale, shrimp, asparagus, smoked paprika and garlic powder. So the first thing I'm going to do is get my quinoa cooking. I'm using my little dash rice maker. You guys already know I love this. It's amazing.  I will link it for you guys. It literally makes perfect rice, perfect quinoa. So I'm going to add a quarter cup of quinoa and half of a cup of water and then literally you turn it over to cook, put the lid on. And in about 20 minutes, we'll have perfectly cooked quinoa. So I added my butternut squash to a nonstick cooking sprayed pan with some foil on it. I'm going to season that up before throwing that into the oven. And then I have my asparagus as well. I have my oven preheating to 400 degrees. I'm going to spray my squash and my asparagus with just a little bit of nonstick cooking spray. That's going to help all the seasoning stick. I'm going to sprinkle on some lemon pepper. And I am going to go ahead and add a little bit of salt as well. And then I'm getting this into a 400 degree oven until both are roasted. I have a skillet warming up with some nonstick cooking spray. And I'm going to add about half of the bag of shrimp to the skillet. Now, my shrimp is raw, so we do want to let it cook completely. My shrimp are cooked about halfway. I'm going to add a little bit of smoked paprika. Some garlic powder and then some salt and pepper. Mix that together, just allow it to cook the rest of the way. And then we're going to pop in our kale. I want to have moving shrimp to the side. And I'm going to add just a couple big handfuls of baby kale and then allow it to wilt down. Once that kale is wilted down, go ahead and remove it from the heat and set it aside. And let's put together the sauce. Of course, I'm going to have the sauce recipe as well. So I'm going to do one and a half tablespoons of Dijon mustard, half of a tablespoon of honey, one and a half tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, tiny bit of oil, I would say about a half of a tablespoon and then a little bit of garlic powder and stir that up. And that is going to be the sauce that will drizzle over these shrimp bootables. To assemble the shrimp bootables super easy once everything is cooked and ready to go, I'm going to use these glass dishes. So I'm going to start with one half of my shrimp and kale mixture. And then I'm going to add some butternut squash. I won't be using all of the butternut squash or asparagus because again, this recipe makes more servings than what I am putting together. But I'm going to put, I would say, maybe half of a cup of butternut squash. So I went ahead and cut my asparagus in half. And I'm going to add a few spears to the bowl and then one half of the cooked quinoa because again, I have to. So this amount of quinoa I make made makes two bootables. And using one half of this really yummy smelling sauce, we're going to drizzle that right on top. And there's our shrimp bootable. I have to say, this looks absolutely incredible. I cannot wait to have this for lunch. Let me go ahead and make up the second one and I'll be back to share points, calories and macros. So here are the completed shrimp bootables. I am super excited, like I said about these. What a great lunch full of healthy carbs, fiber, lots of protein and a great way to get in veggies and leafy greens. For dessert this week, I am making a creamy protein cheesecake. I'm actually going to be leaving this for my hubby. I know that he will love it. He loves cheesecake and we're adding some extra protein. So let me show you what you'll need. First, you're going to need vanilla protein. You guys know I've been loving the Motivate proteins. I love the chocolate. I love the vanilla. So we're going to use the vanilla Motivate protein, 100 calories, 20 grams of protein and only two points and amazing. Such good, sweet vanilla flavor. I will link Motivate down below with 20% off site-wide. So you can pick up anything on the site for 20% off. And then I'm using Lakonto granulated. I also have a 15% off discount for Lakonto. That will also be linked down below.  So when I hadn't added my two packs of room temperature cream cheese to a bowl and I'm going to mix that together until creamy. And then I'm going to add my eggs in one by one and then mix again with my handheld mixer. And then I'm going to add in my one third cup of Lakonto and again, mix that together. Now adding in my one cup of non-fat plain Greek yogurt and about a teaspoon of vanilla extract and then beat that again. And then last but not least, one half of a cup of Motivate vanilla protein, which was one and a half scoops and then mix. So I have a baking dish. I put a piece of parchment in the bottom, sprayed it with some non-stick cooking spray, and then I'm going to add my cheesecake mixture into my dish. Spread that out nice and even. And then I have a larger pan with about an inch, inch and a half of water. And I'm going to place my cheesecake in that pan, essentially making a water bath. And then this is going into a 325 degree oven until it's not jiggly anymore and the edges are browned. So the cheesecake is out of the oven. It looks really good putting it in the ice bath, kept it nice and creamy. That's going to really give you that good cheesecake texture. You could top this again with fresh fruit, whipped cream, canned pie filling, whatever you would like. So I'm going to just leave it plain in the refrigerator so that we can top it with whatever we would like, but I will put all of the points, calories, macros here on the screen for you. Thank you for joining me for another weekly meal prep. I hope you are as excited about these three recipes as I am.  I will link that at the very top of the description box, along with nutrition coaching, links and discounts to my favorite things. And of course, come on over, join our Facebook group. We'd love to have you. Happy Monday, friends. Have an amazing week and I'll see you in the next one. Bye.

Welcome my fellow trade hackers today is Thursday, May 14th looking at the markets looking at the S&P This is a five-minute intraday chart. The gray area is the overnight action last night And so what happened today? Well this morning was the report on the jobless claims from last week and What happened? Well an additional three million people Came out with jobless claims, so that puts us at about 36 million Jobless claims since this whole pandemic started so crazy numbers, but what did the market do? Well the S&P reacted negatively at first it was down about 50 points So down about 500 and then from there it just absolutely Took off like a rocket ship S&P's closed up 40 Dow up 400 NASDAQ up 100 and the Russell up eight so the Russell actually Kind of the lager of the four it's been kind of leading the way both up and down lately, but this time definitely Not the leader in the clubhouse the Dow was actually the leader Technology at NASDAQ kind of middle of the pack, so it would definitely wasn't big tech leading the way so what was it well it was financials if we take a look at XLF XLF Let me get on a daily chart here financials XLF up over two and a half percent If we look at some of the individual like Citigroup up 3.6 percent Then you've got capital one financial up almost 10 percent big move in COF My machine will load here. You go big move in COF. I mean all the banks were up if we look at Bank of America BAC at four percent We've got Goldman Sachs up about a percent and a half Goldman Sachs has actually been Not performing as well as some of the other banks you get JP Morgan was up over four percent So just big move on the financials which interestingly enough I mean, you know that I mean this this is on the heels of after the Fed coming out and saying that they You know potentially might go to negative interest rates, which would be bad for banks But not today banks shaking it off like it's nothing So what did we do today? We just rolled down some of our short delta positions And we added another ducky duck another iron duck So remember cool thing with the iron duck is Well, if we go to a chart of the S&P we did this in an S&P related product And we did it when the when the markets were down Earlier on the day which has been official because these things if no matter how high this rips We're gonna book a little bit of profit We've got a big buffer to the downside where we'll book that max profit and then below that we would just bail So got a good good-looking portfolio right now a decent amount of short Delta looking for this thing You know if this thing does roll over if not we're also positioned Well, if this thing does kind of continue to rip higher, so that's all I got for you tomorrow We will do a recap of all of our trade alerts and our portfolio for pro members the rest of you I will catch you on Monday. See then


All right, welcome everyone to our final webinar of 2016. This is Una Daly from the community college consortium for OER. Can everyone hear me out there? Thank you. Just wanted to make sure. We have a webinar near and dear to my heart and also I think to many of you out there. We often discuss professional development for OER. And I'm so pleased to have Cheryl Huff from Germanic Community College in Virginia and Lisa Young from Scottsdale Community College in Arizona, both experts in this area. So I think we're really in for a treat this morning. I do have to warn you there is construction going on in the building around my office. So if you do hear some unusual sounds like a hammer going, I do apologize in advance for that. All right, as you know, we use the California Community College System PCC Confirm, which is their version of Blackboard Collaborate. And I think most of you are familiar with it. And we have a chat window. It will be in the lower left hand corner of your window with the participants list. You should see yourself on there. Please do use the chat window to make comments or ask questions as we go along. We'll have a formal Q&A at the end of this. And I'd also like to ask you to introduce yourself in the chat window now if you would tell us what college you're with and maybe any other interest that you might have. All right, our agenda today. As usual, I will give you a very quick overview of the CCC OER. And I do want to let you know for those of you who haven't heard, we do have a new website. And it is, I'll type that into the chat window here. But we're really pleased to have a new website after quite a long time with our old one. It's CCCOER.org. So I hope that's really easy for all of you to remember. And we'd love your feedback on it. And we'd love your contributions. It's really, it's a community of practice. And so any materials that you want to share with the community at large around the OER work you do at your college, we would be very happy to share. And then we're going to go directly to our presenters and let me go ahead and introduce them right now. All right. So the first speaker I'd like to introduce is Cheryl Huck. She's a professor of humanities and English at Germanic College in Virginia. But for the last several years, she has been the shepherdess of OER professional development in the Virginia Community College Consortium, working on a project called V23 that she'll tell you more about. And then most recently this year, she has taken over the chair position of the Achieving the Dream OER degree program in the Virginia Community College Consortium. So lots of experience with OER. Cheryl, you want to tell us a little bit about your work out in VCCS? Yes. Hi. Thanks everybody for coming. And thank you, Una, for inviting me. We've been working from quite a few years trying to scale OER or a diverse system. And I'll be talking about that a little bit later. But we do have the benefits of having some shared things like we share a huge blackboard subscription and a few other systems that make it a little bit easier for us to work as a shared system. So I'm going to be talking to you a little bit about what we did statewide for the last couple of years and how it was driven by professional development. And then I'll talk a tiny bit about what we're doing right at my college, Germanic Community College. Great. Thank you, Cheryl. And next I'd like to introduce Lisa Young who has presented with us quite a bit before. She is the faculty director of the Center for Teaching and Learning at Scottsdale Community College. She's also the co-chair of the Maricopa Millions OER project. And she's also one of the vice presidents on my advisory board. We hope to plan our CPC OER activities. Lisa? Good morning, everybody, and good afternoon to those of you out east. I'm really happy to be with you all today. And what we're going to talk about a bit is very similar to Cheryl, but a little bit of a different tack in that we haven't really been exploring the OER degree components. And I'll be presenting on both what the individual colleges are doing as well as us as a district. Thank you, Lisa. So you can see that we're going to have a really wide variety of OER professional development to draw from there today. I'm just so thrilled to have both Lisa and Cheryl. All right. For those of you who are new to the Community College conversion for OER, we've been around for almost a decade, nine years. And although we're working quite closely with a number of colleges on OER degrees, we're also working with a lot of colleges who are just getting started on OER adoption. And our mission really remains the same, expanding access to high-quality open materials. We do this by supporting faculty and staff at the colleges who are doing the work. And ultimately, we want to increase their success. And ultimately, we want to increase their success. If you're out there on the phone, I'd ask you to hit the start button on the phone so that we don't feel like to see back. Thank you. As you know, the Community College Consortium has many members. And I know a lot of you are online this morning. We have members. Over 250 colleges are members in 21 states and U.S. states in California and Canadian provinces. And we'd love to have you join us and support this national and North American movement of Community Colleges adopting OER. Without much further ado, I want to get to professional development for OER. And in talking with Cheryl and Lisa as we were planning this webinar, I was kind of trying to pull the thematic threads together around what makes it a successful program, whether it's at your college, or at your district, or even at a system-wide level. And the really key point that I took away from speaking with these two experts was really finding and creating a community of practice. Building that in a really open environment where all of your resources are shared and everyone is invited to participate where they can. So this is not just about faculty. It's not just about librarians. It's not just about instructional designers. It's not just about administrators. It's not just about students. It's about bringing everyone together to work to make this successful. Funding is a key piece. I think over time you might start this initially, but I think at some point you'll be looking at funding some of this work. And it might be release time for faculty. It might come in various forms. Chancellor Innovation Funds. It could be state or public funds that are allocated to do this work. And there's going to be a lot of professional development, workshops, webinars, individual consultations, and a lot of online resources. We know that faculty, staff are very busy, and so providing resources for them that they can access whenever they're available is really key to that. And then how do you scale this up? You know, starting with a department level to a division, to a college, and finally to a consortium. So I think I know our speakers are going to touch on that. I hope that is helpful for you. So I am now going to turn this over to Cheryl. Cheryl, are you there? You may need to turn your microphone on. Hi, can you hear me? Yes, we can hear you, Cheryl. Sorry. Yes, hi. Thanks again for joining us today. We're at least partly faculty like I am. You know that this is a really crazy time in the semester and we're grading and tweaking finals and prepping students and holding hands. So I appreciate all of you coming. I wondered if you could just do a quick hand raise in the box to the left. And let me know if you're currently involved in any professional development at your college at this point. Okay, great. I see at least 18 hands. 18 hands? Oh, you're recording. Okay. Wow. Okay. So you are definitely my people and I appreciate you coming. I'm one of those faculty who just keeps drifting off into exciting new adventures in the unknown. Maybe because I got into this a little bit late in life and I find so much of it so interesting and exciting. So what I'd like to do today is just give you an overview of what we've accomplished in Virginia as a statewide system as well as in my college and how professional development was really intrinsic to everything that we did and everything that we plan to do. So I'll be describing a little bit of what the system is like and how we work with our people. So I'd like you to meet the Virginia Community College system. I'm going to tell you what we've done in OER. And then I'm going to evaluate what we've done with you and what we plan to do and see how that relates to what you are doing at your school. And I'm hoping we have a really robust Q&A so we can talk about that. So that's the state of Virginia, a great big triangle. You can see that we reach all the way from the Chesapeake Bay and the ocean, the Atlantic Ocean. All the way to under West Virginia on top of Tennessee. So we are a very diverse system. We have mountains all the way down the side and we have water to the right. Northern Virginia at the very top of that triangle is the Washington DC suburb. In fact, in Fredericksburg where I am, we're 50 miles from DC so we're also considered a suburb of Washington. But if you go to the west of our service area, you're up in the mountains and it's a very different environment. So we're a very diverse and exciting state to be a part of. So this is a quick graphic about what the system has in terms of impact. I'm not going to read it to you but you can see roughly what our student population is like. Probably pretty typical. Probably compares pretty closely to your community colleges. In your state. So we have a tremendous impact. We're constantly working especially in the poorer, less served parts of the state to prepare our students for either transfer or to go out to work for us. So a couple of years back Richard Sebastian who was then the director of technology at the VCCS. He was a brand new position and one of his first priorities was to review how much our students are spending for textbooks and how he could alleviate those expenses for them so they'd be more likely to persist and succeed. That coincided with the chancellor creating an initiative called Complete 2021 which the goal is to have three times as many credentials as by 2021 than we have been having. So it's an ambitious goal but a big part of it can be helped with OER. So a key component of that was that we make some changes and make it more affordable for our students to go to school. This is very near and dear to our chancellor who was a community college student who was a first generation community college student who didn't have enough money for textbooks this first semester. So he's a big supporter. So he created some grant funding. The grant funding was exciting because it brought people together in a collaboration. The very first big fund that wasn't just for individuals at individual colleges. Those grants were to create a degree, a gen ed degree. So he funded the development of the 12 highest enrollment courses for the degree. They brought in people from all over the state and this is where we began our relationship with Lumen by and large and coincided with Tidewater creating their degree program. There are also DCCS professional development workshop grants. Now we have to apply for these individually and work with our own admins but they're awarded by the system office and they can be for any kind of professional development. So they've got these grants to work on OER workshops. The only caveat of getting them is that you have to open up your events to everybody across the system. But of course that's terrific because they need to meet people from other colleges doing things that are similar. So the OER grant project led to the Z23 grant project. The Z23 grant project was funded by the Hewlett Foundation which is Sebastian got a $200,000 grant and our chancellor matched it with the system office fund. We worked with 16 of the 23 colleges so I'll be talking a little bit more about that. And then of course that led to achieving the dream degree initiative which is what we're working on now and I suspect a lot of you are as well. So first we had pioneers. I like to think of people who start off in things like distance learning and now OER is the pioneers who shouldn't go out there and start the process. And then a lot of us follow along behind. So Tidewater Community College which is in our system is down in Virginia Beach here in Virginia. The second biggest community college in the system. They started a business management degree that was a completely open Z degree requiring zero textbook. So that's why they coined the phrase Z degree for zero textbook cost. And it literally is zero textbook cost. And that's been running for about two years. North Virginia created at their extended learning institute which is where all the distance learning courses come out of at NOVA. NOVA is the largest, but very close to Washington DC scattered across the top of the state. They created a Z degree, a Gen Ed Z degree, but fully online so students would have had to take the courses completely online. And Reynolds which is in the heart of Richmond created a Z degree for Gen Ed working with their dual enrollment faculty. If any of you have worked with dual enrollment in a department, you know that sometimes it's hard to coordinate textbooks. Very often high schools have textbooks that are out of date compared to what we're using the latest editions on campus. And there wasn't much we could do about that. So creating completely OER courses means that the dual enrollment students and instructors on the same materials that we are on campus. And we can prove to facts that it's equivalent. The New River Community College created this very fun resource. It's called Otis, the Open Text Initiative System. And what it is, it's a repository for all of you. So these were the early Z degrees and they all came out of system funding, college funding, individual faculty applying for workshop grants and creating things and sharing them. So professional development opportunities grew out of this. So next came along the Fetlers, the 16 Z23 teams. I'm going to show you a little bit about that, but just to give you an overview, there were 16 colleges involved. Each had a team creating at least 12 fully OER courses that would lead to a Z degree. And we had a year to work on that. Matthew and Lizzie Watts created both math faculty at Tidewater. They created statewide training for math faculty to learn about my open math. They got a grant to do this. And they went around all over the state and gave open workshops. Very hands on. And then faculty became engaged in the award of math and women webinars. The work started to spread last summer. Sorry, not this last summer, the summer before, when we kicked off the Z23 degree. People really came along and heard about it and wanted to be part of it and contacted us. So we spent a lot of time interfacing with individual faculty, but also making collaborations of faculty. And then each of the individual colleges and regional centers and BCTS peer groups had been working on creating professional development for faculty, librarians, and various instructional designer positions. So the Z23 grant project, you can see it reached all the way across the state. And there were six different degrees that were mostly built. Some built fully, others almost built, almost completed after the two semesters, fall and spring, 2015, 2016. Business Administration, Business Management, Criminal Justice, Gen Ed, Liberal Arts, and Social Science. Some of these built off of previous work. The Liberal Arts degree that NOVA was working on built on top of a way our courses they already had built previously. And the Liberal Arts degree, the Social Science degree at Reynolds was building on top of their Gen Ed degree. They had so many Gen Ed courses already built at OER from their previous Chancellor's Innovation Fund grants that they were able to create a Social Science degree from that. And then of course a lot of this work and training is now kicking off the achieving the dream grant work that we're doing at six of our colleges. One of the ways we started our professional development for Z23, one of the biggest, highest impact things that we did was to hold webinars just like the one we're in right now. Mostly in Blackboard Collaborate. We recorded them. We shared them via a blog that we have. You can see the graphic there, so it's the edtech.vcps blog where we stored all the webinars. We scanned the webinars by subjects, so in other words we had one for English. I think that was the largest attended one. So we talked about composition classes and a little bit about literature. We had them for biology. We had them for Spanish. We had them for history. Anything that anybody was interested in creating, we held a webinar on it. We had various sort of hands-on, very work-added, not theoretical. Just sort of here's how you adopt and adapt and build OER materials and OER courses to lead to degree. So I like to think of what we've been doing as both really broad and really deep. When the Z23 grant project, when everybody was awarded their grant, we did an immediate onboarding with the whole team. Sometimes I was virtual and sometimes I actually drove to the campus and worked with the team. So everybody was given access to shared resources. What we created was a massive spreadsheet for all 16 colleges. They each had their own page and then everything aggregated to a main page. So everybody could see what everybody else was doing and building and can immediately form collaboration so that we could then have professional development for those people, for those specific courses. Sometimes people need the big picture and sometimes they really need hands-on help to do really deliberate things in very specific ways and courses. They just need to understand how to build an assessment or they just need to know how to embed the kind of videos that walk the students through activities. So by having a really shared conversation and collaborating across all 16 schools, and I was literally driving all over the state, visiting each team, working with them. And professional development could be focused or it could be much, much broader, bringing in other people. Tidewater Community College created a course called Pathways. I'll show you a little bit about that. So we did these discipline-specific webinars. I did face-to-face workshops at all of the Z23 colleges. And I also did-we have regional centers for teaching excellence with three or four of our colleges by region having their own center for teaching excellence. And that's funded by the BCCS by the System Office. And so I went to each one of those and presented into workshops at all five of the regional centers. We also have peer groups in Virginia. I don't know if any of you have that as well across your state. The peer groups are typically by discipline. A couple of years ago we created a distance learning peer group that is cross-discipline. We decided we could do the same with OER. So we created an OER peer group and we had our first meeting last spring. So that was like a 24-hour way of being in a room together and creating any kind of OER training or professional development or theory. We just made a huge amount of contact with one another. We had a big town hall meeting too, which was exciting because I think we had about 150 people there. And we got to have a panel talk about the excitement. And now we have, of course, the Achieving the Dream and Lumen collaborations that we're all working-we're working with colleges all around the country now. So this is actually one of our key ways of reaching the most amount of faculty with instant training. So the first summer of the Z23 grant project, 2015, in the summer, I offered, and into the fall, Linda Williams from Tidewater taught two sections. Typically the librarians teach the Pathways course at Tidewater and at some of the other colleges. And it works out very well. They're perfect for that. This is a fully online course so nobody ever has to show up anywhere so anybody can take it from anywhere in the state. And it walks people through everything they basically need to know. And you can see this course. I put the link in there. Lumen has this in their public catalog right from the Lumen homepage, LumenLearning.com. And you can go in there and see. This was designed by Linda Williams again. And we've all taken it-and of course it's completely open. I made my sections. I did three sections late summer into fall. And I made them very self-paced rather than having a module per week or module due every two weeks. I just kind of made it self-paced and that worked out really well for faculty. A lot of them couldn't really focus on it and work on it until Christmas break but then they all got in there and they worked like crazy. So this really prepares people. But we want to take this to the next level. We want to keep bringing people into this because it's really a great place to start. But then the next step is for people who've already moved past this. We need kind of a 2.0. We need a 200 level and a 300 level. The very last part of the Pathways course is really terrific. It's the 6.5 module. Now what? This really tells people what they can be doing next as they move through Pathways. Where they can go with it. And I think it's one of the best ways to keep people in the process. I know with some of the different learning professional development that we did people take the course to get the certificate and kind of disappear. So we wanted at the end of this Pathways course to have direct suggestions as to how they could be continuing to be part of the conversation and be part of the professional development. Even though they finished this, there's still so much to do and to learn. And we linked all this to the blog that we keep up at ECCS. So things have changed a little bit. Last two summers ago when we started the Z23 grants we were talking about adopting, adapting and building. And then what's come about is another way of looking at it. And this came out of some of the achieving the dream conversation. And instead adopt, blend, customize and develop. It makes it a little cuter because it's ABCD. So all of this is going to continue to happen. We constantly keep asking people, where are you and where do you need to go? And then we can help you directly. We continue to work with the systems here, groups, all the different colleges. Even the ones that are not part of achieving the dream, we're pulling them in. We wrote that into our achieving the dream grant that any time we did professional development of any of our, any of the six schools that are part of the consortium, we would invite schools who don't, who are not in the grant, but still are interested in who we are. So this is what we do in terms of networking. We feel like we're constantly building the network through professional development and through collaboration. So these are things that we're hoping to do. This is for the achieving the dream. We're offering the pathways of individual colleges. But we also want to offer it system-wide and make it a transferable credential. Regional workshops, I'm continuing to present at regional workshops along with some of my colleagues. And those are very hands-on for exactly what people need. The consortium itself is offering specific workshops among ourselves. We're beginning work on a couple of the major courses that we know have to happen for our various degrees. And some of the things that we'd like to see the wish list, developmental ed, the dual enrollment program for some of the benefits I mentioned earlier. And then the ESL program, I have a special interest in this because my husband teaches ESL for Germana. And he's created completely OER courses. And saving the money and having the ability to be really nimble about what you offer because every semester the students are different with different needs. Like developmental and dual enrollment. So that's basically my sharing. We are working on professional development in terms of the system-wide, our college-wide, our consortium-wide. We are lucky enough to have this achieving the dream funding for three years. Three years feel extremely luxurious, but it's going by very quickly. And so we have workshops planned. I'm doing one for just my own-my very own English department in January. And that will be in a computer lab and it will be extremely hands-on, direct course mapping and real sharing of resources. But then I'll continue to do things on the statewide level as well. So I will hand this over to Lisa. Thank you, Cheryl. This is Una. I just had a quick question for you. So at Germana College, and I'm sorry if I missed this, but at Germana College, how is OER a professional development done? It sounds like departments might be in charge of it individually, or is there a college-wide movement around that? Well, Germana was a Z23 college. So all the professional development that we were doing for Z23 was taking place at Germana as well. We had 14 people working on 12 different courses. So they all took the pathways course. So now we're building on that with achieving the dream at Germana. But we are all actively-we're doing it across the college. I've presented along with my achieving the dream team. We presented at our college learning day and the faculty come to that. We also presented at faculty meetings. And now we're beginning to hold workshops. We're focusing workshops now at Germana much more on specific courses that need to be developed, collaborative teams, professional development for that. Thank you. Thank you for clarifying that. That's helpful. All right. Wow. That was amazing. Thanks so much to Cheryl for telling us all about that journey in-not only at Germana, but throughout the state of Virginia in their community college system. And yes, now I would like to turn it over to Lisa Young, who is going to tell us about her work at the Maricopa Community College District. Lisa? Hello, everybody. I have been having a sneeze attack the whole webinar. So if I suddenly disappear, it's just because I'm sneezing and I'll be right back. But I'm so happy to be here with you all and have the opportunity to share what we're doing at the Maricopa Community Colleges as well as some of our-as a district as well as at some of our colleges. And so the objectives that I put together for my portion are really to look at-provide a brief overview of the Maricopa Community Colleges and the Maricopa Millions project to discuss our faculty development model for open educational resources and to share some tools and resources that we're happy to share with you. They have a Creative Commons license and you can make your own. However, you'll want to do that. So in terms of Maricopa, we're about the same size as Virginia in regard to the number of students that we serve. We serve about 265,000 students across Maricopa County. And we have a number of colleges. We have 10 individually accredited colleges and two skill centers. We have a number of degrees and certificates available to our students for them to earn. And we have just under 10,000 employees and of those employees, we have just over 5,000 adjunct faculty and about 1,500 residential faculty. So we've got a lot of moving parts and a lot of people and courses really to impact. We have 981 unique courses within our course bank. So there is a lot of potential for what OER can do for our students in making sure they have access to their materials and saving them money on the cost of their education. And we're really excited about the full potential that we have. The Maricopa Millions project is in its fourth year. Our goal was to save students $5 million in five years. We did that in just over three years. Our savings to date are $7.5 million, just over $7.5 million. And we count no cost and low cost. So our model is that if a course uses open educational resources and that is no cost, or if they have no cost or no textbooks, that is a no cost. And then low cost is less than $40. So we came up with that number by polling our students and asking them what they think low cost materials would be, what they're willing to pay for their course materials. So that's how we've developed those cost savings. We are very conservative in looking at a course size of 20 students. And we use pretty much the norm of $100 per textbook in our calculations. And that's how we came up with those funds. So in this number of different ways, we really have worked to increase awareness of open educational resources. And we also support faculty adopting, creating, and sharing their materials. And we do this through a number of grants as well as faculty development programs. And that faculty development program looks like this, where it really has four components. The first is increasing awareness. The second is really getting into the nuts and bolts of OER, you know, creative commons licensing, mixing licensing licenses, things like that. How to find OER. And finally, creating and adapting OER courses, really that reuse, remix, revise, and create and share. And so that, in a nutshell, is what our faculty development program looks like and the different components. And how we do this happens both at the campus level and at the district level. So the Maricopa Millions Project has a steering team representative of all of the different colleges. And we work with those colleges to do programming at the colleges, but also we work on district-wide programming that can impact faculty at all ten colleges. And so when we look at the awareness component, there's a number of ways that we've done that. And first of all, there's brochures. We send out surveys. We send out brochures. We try to just get the word out about what open educational resources are, what creative commons licensing is, how to find and use them. And so this is an example of a brochure that was created by the OER committee at Scottsdale Community College. So it's a group of faculty who wanted to put this information and presented this at our all faculty meeting a couple years ago. And things like this are happening at all of the campuses where they're trying to get that word out and share their resources. So this is faculty developed and faculty shared. Like Cheryl mentioned, we also do a lot of targeted visits. Yes, the brochure is Creative Commons License, and I will get that out to you all. I'm going to make a note because I saw that. And you can totally make it your own, CC Bye. So with targeted visits, we do a number of things. We look at division and department meetings. So we like to take a look at it from the discipline perspective. We've done that a great deal with math as well as English. Math was really the first subject to really kick off with the early adopters for OER within the district. And then English 101 and English 102 were the first courses to be funded with Maricopa Millions. And we really have been working on getting those materials adopted by other faculty. And we've been really working with them. So getting those division department meetings. And what's really interesting is that when I was doing our calculations for the savings this year, our partner Paul Gholish is no longer at the Maricopa Community College as used to do that. And so now I got to data mine the schedule. And what was really interesting is that we have one college that has really only had two departments that they've really targeted for OER, but they had the most savings. And so these division department meetings and adoptions are really key to helping our students get access to the OER and having those core savings. In terms of we work individually with faculty, if someone approaches those of us on the OER Steering Team, and they want to do something outside of our grants program, we certainly meet with them. And we also sometimes target faculty. If we find a great resource that we might want to show them, we'll go ahead and reach out to them and say, hey, we found the perfect resource that might work for you. Let's talk and let me show you. And then again, those specific disciplines. And one of the things that I think is most fun to plan are our Maricopa-wide dialogue days. And we have one per year where we usually bring in a guest speaker, or guest speakers, and we design a full day of learning around open educational resources. So last February, we brought in David Wiley, and we had our day about Open Pedagogy. He did a great job of engaging our faculty and really getting them to think about the whole concept of Open Pedagogy. And then in the afternoon, well, then we had a panel so that faculty who have used OER could share their experiences. And then in the afternoon, we do the discipline-specific open breakouts where faculty are able to share what they have created and hoping to get other faculty across the district to adopt them. So you'll see that we had an English and reading breakout and a science breakout. And those were really successful in really getting the concept of this is what I've done. You can take this, make it your own, and use it, and then share it. And so really getting to those five Rs and helping our faculty have a starting point. And a little later in the presentation, I'll share about what we're going to do to take that even further now that we've tried that out. And we are going to have our next dialogue day, which is going to be around the OER degree. And we're really excited to have Preston Davis be our guest speaker. So we can't wait to have you out here and get away from the cold, Preston. So the second component is really the nuts and bolts and the ins and outs of what OER is, the Creative Commons licensing, how to mix licenses, what about copyright, all of those kind of things. And Matthew Bloom, who has presented a webinar in the past for CCC OER, has created a MOOC and posted it on the Canvas Network. And so it's open to anyone who wants to use it. And if you'd like a copy of it to make your own, we certainly can provide that as well. And you can clearly see the objectives. But this is a great way for us to, for someone who is interested in OER and wants to know more, we share this too with those faculty. And so we're just like, hey, here you go. Get started with this. Come back to us if you have any questions. So we share this resource with anyone who gets our grants, as well as anyone who is just interested in learning more about open educational resources. And we also do this in not only in the MOOC, but Matthew also facilitates this a little bit further where we have facilitated sessions of the MOOC where he adds additional objectives and hands-on time with our faculty. So beyond the nuts and bolts, you know, we've created awareness. We've gotten our faculty interested in OER. They've learned about Creative Commons licensing and what open really is. And then they're like, hey, help me. How do I find OER? And of course we want to do that as well. And so we do have facilitated workshops. And these are available to the district. So any faculty member in the district is welcome to attend these. We have these at least once per year. So these are in the fall semester. And then in the spring semester, we have the dialogue day. These facilitated workshops are much smaller, usually 20 to 25 faculty in a computer lab so they can roll up their sleeves and gain assistance in searching for OER while the dialogue days are usually 80 to 120 faculty coming together so that we can, you know, have a dialogue as opposed to the hands-on workshop component. So this is just a great way for our faculty to start learning and finding their OER. And that's at the district level. And at the campus level, each campus does something a little different. And I really wanted to feature this program, the eVenture program from Mesa Community College. They're from their Center for Teaching and Learning. And so they have this opportunity where faculty get involved in professional development projects. They learn about it. And they cultivate a sense of community and work together. And they have a number of different areas of specializations that faculty can select from universal design, hybrid course design, quality matters, the flip classroom, building learning communities, and OER. And then they work and consult with members of their CTL. And this is an action research project so they learn about OER and the many possibilities aligned with OER are offered through the use of OER. And then they start to put it into action in the course. And this wouldn't be where they realize, wow, there isn't a resource for me to teach these course competencies or learning objectives or, wow, I really need this. And then we're able to leverage that. The faculty are able to leverage that and apply for a Maricopa Millions grant to do that work. And so at the college level, these programs are really exciting because they allow for that development. And, of course, there are a number of individual consultations. Nine of the 10 community colleges within the Maricopa Community College District have centers for teaching and learning or something named similarly. And faculty are more than welcome to come in at any time and work with our CTL staff at those colleges as well as our faculty librarians. And that really provides a great opportunity for the faculty to get more information. And these are both at the Maricopa Millions level and the campus. So they can, of course, go to their campus. And if the campuses get stumped, then they're welcome to come to myself and my co-chair and members of the OER Steering Team for assistance in finding OER as well. So there's a number of different ways that we support our faculty. We never want them to be out there thinking, oh, there's no resources for me. So we've really worked to make sure that they have a number of different, both human resources as well as reference resources for creating those OER, or finding OER, excuse me. And then in terms of creating OER, we also offer a number of individual consultations. So they can be on instructional design or any component of OER training. And one of the things that we do for the Maricopa Millions grant is we get status updates on a monthly basis from each of our teams who are awarded our Maricopa Millions grant. And in that status, we specifically ask, is there anything you're hung up on? Is there anything you need help with? And then we strategize to make sure that we can provide that just-in-time training for any issues that they may have. So they can get assistance in either one of those components, instructional design, or any component of OER, as well as having the librarians who are amazing resources. And I wanted to share with you one of the tools that Donna Gaudet, now Donna Slaughter, and I had developed specifically for a workshop. And this is something that we use now with OER at the Maricopa Millions level as well as at Scottsdale Community College where I teach. And this is a three-page worksheet. And I've provided the link at the bottom. So if you want to use this, modify it, make it your own, please do. But we really want the faculty to look at what they have and what they need and what they might need to transform in regard to moving their course to in Creative Commons license format. So we encourage them to take it from the learning objective and then almost use the adding model in regard to first looking at what you have in terms of assessments, what are your techniques? Do you have it in a Creative Commons format? If you do, what's the reference or attribution and what learning objective across competency are they aligned with? And so we really want them to start thinking about, okay, these are the components that I have in my OER or in my regular course. What can I use? And, wow, I have this great resource, but I have no idea where I got it. I don't know if it is in the Creative Commons format or who created it. So we really want them to start thinking about that. Again, with instructional materials, we want them to identify what they have and whether it's in Creative Commons format or who they're going to attribute. We think that's really key. And then we want them to start thinking about what they might need. So they've looked at what do they have. Now what might they need? Is it something that they've already got that needs to be modified or they need to reach out to someone to see if it's Creative Commons license or so on and so forth and keep track of those attributions and then what they'll need to create. So this is one of the first tools that we look at that we work with our faculty so that they're looking at those learning objectives and taking inventory of what they have. And then our third page is really just keeping track of the attributions because one of the areas that I've found that faculty don't think about is their PowerPoint slides or if they're using something like that or if they've narrated them and they may have all of these images that they've compiled over the years and some of them might be from publisher materials from this book they used 10 years ago and some of them are from a colleague and so on and so forth. We really want them as they start to develop and modify their materials to really keep track of those images and so we have them put their image, how and where it's being used and then the attribution as well as the link so that then they can pull that all together. If they're not doing it, if they're not quite sure when they're going to use it they can always go back and be like, oh I had this image of this and I'm going to use it here and I can provide the attribution. So that is a worksheet that you're more than welcome to use and modify and if you modify it and make it better I'd love to see what you did because we always want to make things better. We also do discipline specific facilitated workshops. This is specifically from Math. MathAS is also my open math. We call it MathAS. I've asked our math faculty what AS stands for and we couldn't come up with it so it's MathAS. But this is a district-wide look at how we were able to bring in David Littman and do some in-depth MathAS training for faculty across the district. And we also have college specific programs. So at SEC we have our new textbook free degree and with that each semester we identify the faculty who will be working on those courses that have been identified for the OER degree and we meet monthly as a team and we do OER training. We look at how things are going in their work to convert their course to an OER and hybrid course. So it's OER and hybrid program. And work with them for that and then we also do individual consultations, our PPL staff with individual faculty as they're working on different projects if they get hung up or if they just want some instructional design help or if we work with them to search for different materials. So that's a college specific program that we've been working on. And now we're moving into the open pedagogy workshop. So last February we brought in David Wiley to talk about it. Now we're delivering open pedagogy workshops to help our faculty consider the use of working with their students and having them engaging in that open pedagogy model. And so this is an example of what we've come up with. And of course, while we are workshops, our materials are Creative Commons licensed and of course we'd be more than happy to share them. And so finally, in terms of what I dream for a faculty development, I really dream of a way to have an OER Institute or OER Academy within the district. I think that would be an amazing way to do some really in-depth work with our faculty and also do some scholarship of teaching and learning around OER. And then in terms of finding OER, that finding OER component, we're going to start moving into youth and Canvas Commons. But I still dream that we would have some kind of great metadata and way that we could cross-reference all of the OER across platforms and institutions so it would be easier for our faculty to search for OER. And that's what I got. Great. Thanks so much, Luisa. That was an amazing presentation, and as you may be able to tell, there's been a lot going on in the chat window, too. It's a great, great fact channel, work as well. So I want to open this up to questions, and I've been tracking some of them, and I think probably Cheryl has, and Luisa will give you a chance to look in the chat window and see some things. One question that came up early on, and I'm going to just put it out there, was how are people sharing their OER courses? And we had a number of people respond. Cheryl, of course, spoke about the fact that the Virginia Community College system uses Blackboard, and so they share a lot through Blackboard. And I believe Luisa mentioned that Maricopa uses Canvas, and I believe that's throughout almost all of their colleges as well. And so that's another option. Also, Women Learning has a repository of OER courses. They are a company that I'm sure many of you are familiar with and that we work with closely. They produce OER courses. Colleges can contract with them to access those courses through their own LMS. And Regina Gong, also from Lansing Community College, she's the OER project manager there. And she mentioned that the State of Michigan has an OER hub where they have a curated list of OER content. I don't think it's courses, but it's textbooks and other OER. And Cheryl and Luisa, would you like to add to that? Yeah, hi. I'll jump in. This has been one of the greatest challenges across the state. And I would love to say that we solved this problem, but we really haven't. I went to a summit of the whole DCCS last Friday at the system office with Jenny Quarles, who is the new Richard Sebastian at the DCCS. And we still have an issue with sharing courses without much friction. We did create, during the V23 grant project, Lumen worked with our Blackboard admin people. And we built an OER courses tab that built in access for all faculty at the top of your Blackboard homepage. There's a series of tabs. And one of them was just said OER. And you go in there and access some of the courses. Now, the process of getting courses into that tab and having them updated and available, that was a little bit clunky and continues to be challenging. So a lot of what's happening is just, much of what Lumen has in their catalog has already been designed by schools like NOVA, NOVA Eli, where Preston is. A lot of the courses in there are from them. A lot of the courses are from Tidewater. A lot of the courses are just from all 16 schools that were part of the V23. So Lumen is basically housing our courses for us. And some of them we can get directly to Blackboard. Other courses we go to Lumen. Lumen's LTI for their courses can pop into Canvas. They can pop into Blackboard. It's just like importing publishers' materials. You just open a zip file and pop it in your course. So that's what we're doing. But is it working beautifully yet? Not yet. But getting there. Lisa, did you want to add something about Maricopa as well? Yeah, we're really challenged at this. We just turned on Canvas Commons, so we haven't used it yet and haven't encouraged anyone to use it. So right now, all of our Maricopa Millions-supported resource OER are linked inside of our main Canvas page. So this is an area that we definitely need to improve upon in terms of being able to share the great work that our faculty have done in pulling together OER for these courses. All right. Thank you, Lisa. And Chrissy Fierro at Tacoma Community College mentioned that they will be using Canvas Commons as well and OER Commons. So it looks like a lot of folks are investigating that, moving in that direction, so that's good input for us as we do our planning for next year's webinars. We may be able to get some more information on that for everybody. I just want to see if we have other questions. Go ahead. Hi, this is Chrissy. One other quick note on that that I think is really cool is a lot of the LMSs used to have proprietary file types and Canvas moved over to what's called a common cartridge and I've tested it. But if you go into Canvas Commons and download a course to move into Blackboard, I haven't had any problems of moving it between LMSs. So that's another point that not only can you access it even if you're not Canvas, that it usually downloads pretty seamlessly. Okay. That's great to hear too. So as people, if there is potentially movement between LMSs, Canvas Commons seems to be providing the cartridge, the common cartridge now. Exactly. Thank you. Okay. Thank you. Debbie asked, will we be notified by the listeners when these courses go to Canvas? Well, Debbie, that not specifically, but we will be sharing additional information on OER development platforms. We do from time to time share vendor information, but that's not specifically what we do. It's more what our colleges are doing and then we share around that. But I know there's a lot of interest in this area, so we'll be sharing more information. And I want to see if there's any, I may have missed an earlier question. We've had a wonderful chat going on here. Cheryl or Lisa, would you like to address if any issues that came up in the chat window and just articulated before we sign off here? Well, I saw there were just a couple of questions that wanted some clarification. And so I just wanted to clarify that our dialogue days are district-wide and most of the workshops that I shared are district-wide, although we do have campus-specific ones as well. And then there was a question about our savings and our savings are based on $100 per textbook and we only account for the top 25 enrollment courses. So there's a lot of courses that are not in those top 25, so our savings could be substantially higher, but we only look at those courses. Okay, thank you for that, Lisa. One question that came up earlier was from a number of people, at least two I saw, who mentioned that they don't have all of these resources that Lisa and Cheryl have developed over time. And so I did want to point you to the Community College Consortium for OERs, website CCCOER.org, and maybe someone will pop that in the chat window right now. It's a good place to start getting resources. We've redid our website so that it really kind of stands from very introductory OER to the more advanced OER degrees and we're going to continue to build that over time. So thank you, Keri, another one of our vice presidents on our advisory board for putting that in and Quill. So this is a place to share. We're a community of practice and we want to make all of our colleges successful with their OER adoption. And Cheryl, I wanted to give you the last chance here. Do you have anything you'd like to share with us before we sign off? Yeah, I saw that a few comments, too, about the lack of resources. And I actually started a conference presentation about OER with Just Start Somewhere. That was the theme of my presentation and then that was a few years ago because that is really how it is. You just have to go from where you are as an organization and do things like look at CCC OER resources and come to these webinars and ask a lot of questions and network like crazy. Anybody's welcome to email me, c-huff at Germanus.edu. It's very easy. And just be part of the conversation and we always discover that even when there are not 22 colleges some of the schools are just on the brink. Some are way out there with C degrees like Tidewater and others. And schools with the most money are always out there ahead of time but they're always willing to share. So being part of, oh, I see and you have a stand-the-loop slide, so that's a great resource. So thank you all for coming. Yeah, thank you, Cheryl. And I absolutely agree with her about joining a community, getting involved in all of these amazing different options. Attending conferences when you can can be really powerful as well. There's a couple of them here on the slide. And on our new website, we also have a Get Involved where we're sharing all the spring conferences that have open education themes associated with them. So do check that out. We have a big online event in the end of March called Open Education Week where we get to share the work we're doing and hear from everyone else. And our webinars will restart in early February and the first one is scheduled to be on authoring tools and platforms. So thank you for all the questions about how to share. We are courses. We will definitely bring that back into our planning and make sure that that webinar addresses some of that concern because it's a big one. And so thank you all for coming today and thanks so much to Cheryl and Lisa for sharing these amazing programs and giving us all of these ideas for how to bring this back to our colleges. And I want to say happy holidays to everyone and we will see you in January. Great, thank you.


Oh, did we hit him the invincible super doesn't work. Hey This game looks too good How's it going everybody dot-today here and I am very excited because today we are finally hopping into guilty gear strive The open beta has just begun for the code havers It will be open to people that pre-ordered pretty soon, but regardless. I'm super excited So we are we are going up against super new today. We actually played a ton of matches before this I lost a ton, but I'm still very excited because We're playing Nagora Yuki and this character is a blast Super new just playing Leo who is a mix-up monster as for Nagora Yuki You really just want to try to get into the corner and oh nice grab from noon there I am in the corner now and the mix-ups just now are starting. Oh I try to grab.  Maybe that'll give us enough time. No, we still get punished Well the mix I thought he'd go for the grab round one. That was clean. Oh man. I've been love with this game It's too good. I Should have gone for something more damaging there. Oh Nice burst. I don't disagree. I Was worried about a command grab there So the only way to lower that blood gauge that goes into I'm sorry. I'm like I've been up for so long. I'm more like Thought-provoking the only way to lower the blood gauge is to land a specific command grab Um, so you want to try to go for that if you can oh the mix. I wasn't paying attention. The mix was too good mix again All right, he usually does that twice the only reason I knew to look out for that was because I feel like we've been We played so many matches today Shit, I missed the grab huge Nice get them off me. Oh that was sick. I think I got countered. Nice. That's the first game. Oh Leo and you can see my character posing in death. They're too sick That's game one though. Let's go ahead and hop into game two see if we can't improve anything But yeah, overall this game has been an absolute blast so far the netcode the rollback by the way Is in the beta version and it has been surprisingly good Uh, we played someone from spain early. Can I nice cancel that in two combo? Whoo, that's the command grab now. We're lowering Oh, and I missed the grab. I did not mean to even go for grab there. That is a huge mistake though Oh, we have a great fireball option as well Oh, no, okay. We got a burst there. There's no choice The invincible super doesn't work. Hey game looks too good.  We are getting launched. Oh through the trees Oh, no, dude. I just I just got bodied this round. Wait second chance Oh, no, I'm dead now Wait, let me live Oh, but not for long. So in that form the reason it's a double edge short is if you watch my health drains very quickly Um, and there's really not a great way to get it back It's more just something you got to deal with We're just spamming slash there Oh, I couldn't block it same side same side command grab no command grab Oh Whoa, what a what a burst not even a burst. That was a sick Nice and he does a counter as well. This might seal the game for him Oh, it was close and it's still done Whoo game two goes very similarly. It's just tough being this leo, dude It's it's smooth. We actually haven't gotten mixed too much, but the mix is definitely still there Clean let's hop back into another one. I'm just loving this, dude. Okay dual one. We're back at it again All right sweep the feet. That's good Three was never enough. I like how we just jab three times. It's still so sick Overhead still not ready for it command grab this time are still tough again We're in the form now.  Oh no, no, no, no nothing we could do what's we're putting the mask on and taking it off We're completely vulnerable. I'm saying that a lot, but um, it's it's mostly for me I'm getting used to it myself too. Like I got to really keep an eye on that blood gauge Nice, that was good. That was good. Uh use of the zoning there. Wait just that. Oh, no, my mask popped up I wouldn't pay attention to good The damage is always good though Sadly, I'm not going to get to use it. That was a quick rod. Yeah So if you're not careful with that gauge rods could go really quick swept again. That was clean Well going at the game This is good. So again, super noon is a professional fighters player and I Just really good at fighting games in general Got him with the grab. Okay, that's gonna lower our uh Maybe there's more I could be doing there to get him off me, dude There's gotta be this character is so sick, but it was cheap This character is so sick But there's gotta be Some more to him because the health drains quick. So you really want to make sure you're using that gauge accordingly Uh, I've said that so many times now, but again, it's mostly for me. Damn. I couldn't get in time Oh the range nice Nice Oh no Oh no The combo was too clean. We almost had him there. He still has burst. So we're still in for it nice So that is actually a chain you can fade. All right, we can take that He's getting out of that pressure too Oh counter. I thought I was faultless. Defensing. Oh, this might be another quick one Who the moves I'm worried about the command grab too. We have burst so we can burst out of this and burst though It's all over. Oh, what a bad burst. That's another thing you have to look out for in guilty years The burst is a good get off me to a butt leaves you wide open if you miss it Oh, this is a good learning experience Learning through pain. Okay. I think this is game. What four or five. We still need a win on the board. All right, huge For a huge starter. Obviously could go much better. We're gonna try using the fireball a bit more. I think Oh beautiful. That was great. We could definitely try using this fireball I think it might be maybe the key for me is I'm not using that enough Um, it's a great move And then we can go into this relatively Oh my goodness. It's it's just huge. Whoa speaking of huge. All right, then we can just put it down and uh Maybe get it from here with the uh, okay. Oh, wow wait. I don't think that's gonna hit not if he's behind us Oh, it's too good. Oh, we're out though Okay, we got a lucky jab. Oh, that was scary though. We definitely the health got super low. I forgot that again How do I forget I've said it like 80 times, but it drained my health so quickly. Oh nice Nice big damage there. Oh no. Oh this fireball's too slow Nice burst We're still not in the blood form yet, but we're getting there, which is dangerous Honestly at this point though, it might act as a get off me tool got to grab those so we're good Huge No, okay, we got a lucky burst No, that might be it. That is it. It's one to one now If we want if we want our first win, we got to play this next one perfectly I think we back up here to start with it's too dangerous dude. It's too dangerous What do I do to get out of that spacing? Oh, I try to get a grab. It wasn't it. That wasn't the move Huge damage Didn't even know I honestly did not know he had that move huge All right, just sweep the leg Oh nice dp. I was trying to get in for the pressure. That's it. That's it. I'm dead. I can't move Oh chipped me out. That's the hardest part about is getting chipped All right, one more game one more game. Okay, the final game. It has been so much fun But we are still winless. Obviously we've got a lot To oh, that was nice. Oh, but the jump was even nicer. Hold on. Maybe we can escape That's what I like to see. That's good day and I change. Oh my goodness. This form is tough to use That is sick though You can't even use the dash of this form. So you're kind of immobilized for a bit and you can see my my health just uh Just going down. Oh, I went silent because I thought I might be able to get out of that, but that was clean All right, this is it Oh, no Oh, no, I didn't mash quick enough. Oh, it's getting intense Rain back in perfect range and everything. All right. We got a kind of a small break there Oh, but we missed the first hit of that attack. So we didn't get the follow-up Corners not treating us too nice Oh, no Hopefully hit a button. No, he didn't sound like white one. I had to do that damage damage. No The fireball cuts through and it's game. That was so sick. Thanks again to super dude Obviously the link to his twitch channel will be down below in the comment section Probably pinned but great games tough first session, but you know what these losses are important Oh, I love this character a lot by the way I got to get used to the bar the office is going to play a part But yeah, so much fun. I can't wait to bring more guilty your stride videos Hopefully with a lot more people a lot more characters stuff like that more combos But as for day one, that's where I'm going to call it I'm going to go get some sleep if you guys enjoyed it Let me know who you want to see me play next down below in the comments and while you're down there Make sure to like button and subscribe to the channel other than that. I've been dr. Doya and I will see you in the next one


Live from Las Vegas, Nevada, it's theCUBE at IBM Edge 2014. Brought to you by IBM. Good afternoon from Las Vegas, everybody. This is Dave Vellante with Jeff Frick and this is theCUBE SiliconANGLE's flagship program. We go out to the events. We extract the signal from the noise. We're here at IBM Edge. This is day one. We're going to be covering Edge wall-to-wall executives, practitioners, partners, consultants, analysts, bloggers running the gamut, getting you all the information on the news, the news of the day, trends, competition. Jim Larson is here. He is with the comms and the storage division of Intel. Jim, welcome to theCUBE. Thanks, Dave. New occasions of storage are coming together. Yes, they are. You're seeing it all over the place. You're seeing it in converged infrastructure. You're seeing it in this whole software-defined meme. So tell us, what's new with Intel and what's happening in your part of the world? Well, on the networking side, we're really engaged with IBM to deliver some new technologies around SDN and NFV as the customer base is really meeting the physical limits of their network and everybody wants to be able to migrate jobs around quickly so this whole terminology of software-defined X could be infrastructure, could be storage, could be networking. They want to be able to migrate those jobs around quickly and effectively and so really both NFV and software-defined networking are coming out in the market and giving the practitioners those tools that they need to be able to migrate jobs quickly and be able to use their policies and procedures so that if your data isn't supposed to interact with Jeff's data, that it won't and you can then quickly migrate it around so that it changes. Why software-defined and why now? Is it that we're now at a point where compute power is so plentiful and relatively inexpensive or are there other factors driving it? What are the big drivers? Well, it's one because the networks are getting much larger and they're getting flatter. So it used to be a very tiered structure where you went to aggregation layers and then you went to end-of-road switching and routing. Nor south. And so now we're going wider and wider so we're maxing out on the physical limitations of like VLAN IDs. You only had 4,000 of them and people are just running out of that space. Those are architectural limitations that now the industry's bumping into. Yeah, and two, I mean just this whole idea of I want to change things quickly, right? Before people didn't want to change things very quickly. So how do you do that and you need the tools and NFV is really a prime example of being able to give those practitioners the tools to do that quickly? Yeah, so networking's an interesting animal. We're talking about a lot of Jeff and I and others on theCUBE, John Furrier and I talk about it all the time where you have networking in the data centers, a dominant player in Cisco, they got two thirds of the market. I can't think of another market. Oh, Intel and microprocessors, okay. But it's rare in our industry where you don't have some kind of binary compatibility issue or in the case of Microsoft, some kind of software affinity to see that kind of dominant share and now all of a sudden software defined, it brings this whole new innovation. It's creating innovation on innovation and the incumbents are innovating and the startups are innovating. It's a very exciting time for networking, isn't it? It is. It's new territory, it's wide open territory where the controllers to run the software find networks. They're just coming out, people are launching those, getting them to market, compatibility issues and Intel's really taking an end-to-end perspective from this. So we have our switch division that's bringing out new switch technologies and working with IBM to do that and then on the networking side, on the server sides or on the storage sides where you're doing LAN and SAN. We wanna be able to make sure that we have an end-to-end solution that's functional and brings that Intel quality that we're known for and the robustness so that customers don't have to worry about something not working or failing or going down. So, you know, as the controllers come out so that they can manage those policies and procedures, we wanna make sure that everything interoperates and it gives you that, such a set. Talk a little bit more about what's going on with IBM.  IBM made an acquisition of BNT, I believe I'm correct in saying that's going over with the Lenovo deal.  So, given that Lenovo is now sort of IBM's new steward for things like BNT, what are you doing with IBM? Is it important sort of extending that piece of the business and are there other activities going on? I wonder if you could help us squint through that. Well, today in their portfolio, our X520 and X540 products, they support NFV today. And therein lies one big question. If you want your 10 gig network to run at true 10 gig, you need some sort of technology there that's gonna enable it. If you don't have some sort of offloader support for that, you're gonna be running at three to four gig where everything is gonna be pushed off to the processor and the processor's gonna have to process those packets. So today they have two cards in the portfolio that support this. They're going to make some announcements later this year on 40 gig products that are gonna talk about how they support this. All instantiations, all implementations VXLAN, NVGRE, GRE, all of the different ones that are coming out. Again, being a green field where people wanted to find things maybe a little bit different to add value. We're gonna be able to support those with this new product coming out. And IBM and Intel are very aligned there to get that out to the market. So Jimmy, your title is comms and storage. So how are those, at the top of the spot I talked about convergence, those things coming together.  Are they still largely separate, sort of solutions and product sets? Well, they are coming together and a lot of people want to be able to be able to connect to whatever storage device. If you think about how this software defined infrastructure wants to move and maybe you want to be connected when your network's connected up to be connected to fiber channel. And maybe Dave's here or Jeff's here wants to be connected to fiber channel over ethernet. And you want to be able to switch that. You want to be able to turn those knobs and you don't want to have to physically go out to the systems and do that. You want to be able to control that from one system and say, this is how I want it set up in my policies. API call would be nice. Yeah, exactly. So there's how storage is kind of coming together. Intel also has some other technologies that were coming out with DPDK that's accelerating traffic and that traffic in storage platforms that's going to come out this year as well. Again, if you want to run some of those new technologies and you only want to have it applied to certain people under an SLA, right? You want to be able to set those policies so that only that runs in that environment. So you got some pretty interesting disruptions going on. What you described as this sort of hierarchical, hardened data center, I call it North South. You've got the SAN, which talk about hardened. I mean, that's been decade plus, you know, more than it's been a couple of decades now where that's been hardened. And you're starting to see all this software defined stuff come in and unravel is not the right word but certainly disrupt it. We've also seen function to get away from the server for years out to the SAN, for example. Now it's starting to come back. Stu Miniman coined this term server SAN.  Let's assume it's Ethernet. And then you've pooling that capability. So again, another example of convergence. When you talk to your partners and data center customers, are they seeing that? Are they driving that? Are they embracing that? Does it scare the, you know, what out of them? What are you seeing in the marketplace? Did you see it all? I would say that, you know, a lot of people are looking for improved performance and they're looking to put in flash drives where they can get that better performance and where they can maximize their return on investment to be able to put that in. A lot of these vendors are looking at other technologies right now today to maybe make interconnects that are very quick and very fast. And I think Intel's got some products on a roadmap to try to address that coming out shortly. But, you know, fast connections to tiered storage and then how that's gonna play out. In the keynotes here, they talked a lot about having this elastic storage environment where you're going from flash to drive, spinning disks to, you know, tape backups and so forth. I mean, Intel's obviously got our own flash department and products that we're rolling out there, our SSDs as well. Do you care if the world goes?   I mean, otherwise, you're friends of everyone. You're trying to advance the ecosystem, you contribute to open source, you're spending money on R&D, you work with virtually everybody. So when you think about how this industry is evolving, you hear all about cloud, you guys sell it to the cloud, you sell it to the public cloud, you know, the large internet providers, do you care which way the industry goes or do you not? In other words, do you design products specifically? Do you make bets? Do you have to make bets internally or does it not matter to you guys in terms of which way it goes? No, it's very important. And we do make, you know, those strategic investments into what we think is going to happen in the future and where we see things. And then of course there's trends. You know, with each launch of platforms, there's always a trend. And we understand those trends pretty well. The cloud guys, even the Toco customers, they tend to push the envelope first and they'll roll out new technologies and bring those to the market. And then from there, you start to roll over to the enterprise markets and so forth. And so, you know, right now, all of these technologies that we're talking about, NFV, SDN, and storage, I mean, we're on the cusp right now of a very big deployment around the world with vendors trying to push out some really new technologies. And they're trying to bring their costs down and they're trying to bring great flexibility. You know, there's companies, for example, like Netflix and other of these service providers that are trying to push more and more content to the edge of the network. And by pushing more content to the edge, they don't bottleneck up their whole data center, right? They're pushing it out to open it up to everybody. And so this is where we've put a lot of strategic dollars and we've kept our ear very close to the ground about what they need and what kind of software technology they need built on top of that hardware to make it work for them. Because you got to make both of them work or you don't have a full solution. So is it, when you make these bets, you're obviously, you're making bets on hyperscale. You're clearly a player there. And we're starting to see that bleed into the enterprise. Is it, is what happens in hyperscale a harbinger for what will happen in the enterprise? Or are there substantial dramatic differences? In other words, if I look at what's happened in hyperscale today, will that bleed in five, seven years later? Or will it take a U-turn or a hard fork?  We look at the trends and we try to make branch predictions off of what we've seen in the past and where things are gonna go in the future. And then of course we keep our feet on the street and we keep our technologists and our architects out there talking to these people about, is this working? Is this providing the service and the SLAs and price performance that you're looking for? And if it's not, then we have to make course corrections. So what are some of the bets you're making?  What other things can you share with us? Bet you're making that you think are gonna pay off, whether it's in the enterprise or emerging application markets and other spaces within networking or anything you can share? I would say that right now network functions virtualization is one of the large investments that we're making right now within our division. And network functions virtualization is all about trying to use common x86 hardware to run jobs and functions. And it's really targeted at the telco market. And this environment has very classically been a very tiered, very structured, very hardened environment. And these are people that don't change often. They make investments every seven years or so. And as they get ready to do their next deployment, they're looking at network functions virtualization and running these jobs, whether they're switches, routers, load balancers, all on common hardware. Does that software provide them the four nines, five nines or six nines that they need for the reliability to run in their environment? And these are the kinds of things that they're evaluating right now and that they're testing in their labs. So in thinking about your business over the next, let's say midterm, midterm is 12 to 18 months, is that fair? What are the things that we as observers should be looking at as indicators? What are the objectives that you have, the goals, sort of milestones at a high level? I know you can't share detailed plans, but things that we should be watching as sort of outsiders, as indicators that you're moving in the direction that you want to go. That's sometimes pretty hard for an outsider to look at because so many of these cloud and comms providers are pretty tight lipped with their products and what they're running. I mean, right now I'm a Verizon customer and an AT&T on my cell phone and I don't know what they're running in their data center, right? It's hard to know that. But those are the indicators that we'll be looking at as they're going through their transformation and the transformations that are going on in Europe and in Asia. We're gonna look at how well we're doing and supporting them with what they need and at the cost point that they need. So that's market share, that's a market share measure. Other things, other innovations that you should know about? Guys, I think we've got a platform launch coming up and I probably shouldn't talk too much about that, but it is coming up in the success of that platform launch as there's going to be a lot of products around that and a lot of technologies that's grouped in with that platform launch. Well, we guys do platform launches. It's the whole ecosystem. Exactly. It's not just, hey, here's a little product. It's deep. You guys got your tentacles everywhere. So, all right Jim, well listen, thanks very much for coming on theCUBE. Really appreciate your perspectives and educating us on your business. You bet Dave, thank you. All right, keep it right there, everybody. We'll be back with our next guest. We're live at IBM Edge. This is day one, Dave Vellante with Jeff Frick, we'll be right back.


This work is about a new kind of photo detector using the property of graphene transistor. So graphene is one single atomic layer thick of carbon. Its electroconductivity is very sensitive to electric field to act on graphene. In other words, if you apply electric field, you can change the amount of charge carriers in graphene and that changes connectivity or resistance. When light comes in, create carriers in this underlying substrate, in this case silicon carbide, it actually modulates the electric field and acts on graphene because we already have a background electric field by a voltage applied in the back. So we call this a photo transistor or photo-actuated or modulated transistor. The nice thing about our device is we apply laser enumeration out of the graphene area. We are still able to observe photo response. And for typical devices like already demonstrated so far, they observe photo response in a very limited area. That's why this is called a non-local or large area photo detection. And that's actually quite useful because often you may not know exactly where light comes from or where it will hit, but you still would get a response. So this is a complementary to a lot of other photo detectors people already develop including based on graphene, but you require light to hit right on graphene or nearby and this one does not have to. So it's a new kind of a principle, new kind of device.
