Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: TAC was created as a follow-on to the Blue Ribbon Council on Information Technology (BRC-IT). Like its predecessor, TAC engaged many of the key state agencies and state CIOs, county IT leaders, and the Minnesota Association of Professional Employees (MAPE). The council began monthly meetings in late 2021; four subcommittees also met each month and as needed: User Experience/Self Service, Project-to-Product/Agile, Sustainable Funding, and Cybersecurity. This report covers TAC's work in 2021 and 2022.
Download or read book The Technology Advisory Council written by Tackett Austin and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is designed to help a Technology Advisory Council (TAC) get a start at helping children obtain a better education--an education that prepares them for adulthood in an information age society. The advisory council is a representative group of stakeholders, i.e., the people who are affected by decisions and those involved in implementing the decisions. This book provides a sense of direction for some things that a TAC might do once it is started. The book is divided into 10 chapters: (1) The Electronic Classroom; (2) Overview of Computers in Education; (3) Building a Technology Advisory Council; (4) The Strategic Planning Process; (5) Gathering Baseline Data; (6) Megatrends: Computers in Education; (7) Current and Future Technology; (8) Goals for Computer Technology in Education; (9) Staff Development as a Change Agent; and (10) Final Remarks. The appendices include letters which provide background information to stakeholders; a number of funding sources that can help a school increase its uses of technology; a network of contact people, places, and projects; an annotated list of some fundamental readings; and a list of videos that can help TAC members and others learn about educational uses of computers. A glossary of key terms is included. (TMK)

This book was released on 2017-12-16 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Federal guidance on nutrition and diet is intended to reflect the state of the science and deliver the most reliable recommendations possible according to the best available evidence. This guidance, updated and presented every 5 years in the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA), serves as the basis for all federal nutrition policies and nutrition assistance programs, as well as nutrition education programs. Despite the use of the guidelines over the past 30 years, recent challenges prompted Congress to question the process by which food and nutrition guidance is developed. This report assesses the process used to develop the guidelines; it does not evaluate the substance or use of the guidelines. As part of an overall, comprehensive review of the process to update the DGA, this first report seeks to discover how the advisory committee selection process can be improved to provide more transparency, eliminate bias, and include committee members with a range of viewpoints for the purpose of informing the 2020 cycle.

Download or read book Bayesian Networks in Educational Assessment written by Russell G. Almond and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-03-10 with total page 678 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bayesian inference networks, a synthesis of statistics and expert systems, have advanced reasoning under uncertainty in medicine, business, and social sciences. This innovative volume is the first comprehensive treatment exploring how they can be applied to design and analyze innovative educational assessments. Part I develops Bayes nets’ foundations in assessment, statistics, and graph theory, and works through the real-time updating algorithm. Part II addresses parametric forms for use with assessment, model-checking techniques, and estimation with the EM algorithm and Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). A unique feature is the volume’s grounding in Evidence-Centered Design (ECD) framework for assessment design. This “design forward” approach enables designers to take full advantage of Bayes nets’ modularity and ability to model complex evidentiary relationships that arise from performance in interactive, technology-rich assessments such as simulations. Part III describes ECD, situates Bayes nets as an integral component of a principled design process, and illustrates the ideas with an in-depth look at the BioMass project: An interactive, standards-based, web-delivered demonstration assessment of science inquiry in genetics. This book is both a resource for professionals interested in assessment and advanced students. Its clear exposition, worked-through numerical examples, and demonstrations from real and didactic applications provide invaluable illustrations of how to use Bayes nets in educational assessment. Exercises follow each chapter, and the online companion site provides a glossary, data sets and problem setups, and links to computational resources.

Download or read book Food and Drug Administration Advisory Committees written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1992-02-01 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like many other agencies of the federal government, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) relies extensively on external advisory committees for independent scientific and technical advice. Recognizing that the existing advisory committee system is essentially sound, this volume recommends ways of enhancing the use of these committees in the evaluation of drugs, biological materials, and medical devices; strengthening the agency's management of the system; and increasing the accountability of the system to the public. In doing so, it examines and makes recommendations on such issues as the recruitment of committee members, the FDA's management of financial conflict of interest and intellectual bias among members, and the operations and management of the advisory committee system.
