Conducting K-12 Outreach to Evoke Early Interest in IT, Science, and Advanced Technology
(ACM, 2012-07-16) Kallback-Rose, Kristy; Antolovic, Danko; Ping, Robert; Seiffert, Kurt; Stewart, Craig A.; Miller, Therese
The Indiana University Pervasive Technology Institute has engaged for several years in K-12 Education, Outreach and Training (EOT) events related to technology in general and computing in particular. In each event we strive to positively influence children’s perception of science and technology. We view K-12 EOT as a channel for technical professionals to engage young people in the pursuit of scientific and technical understanding. Our goal is for students to see these subjects as interesting, exciting, and worth further pursuit. By providing opportunities for pre-college students to engage in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) activities first hand, we hope to influence their choices of careers and field-of-study later in life. In this paper we give an account of our experiences with providing EOT: we describe several of our workshops and events; we provide details regarding techniques that we found to be successful in working with both students and instructors; we discuss program costs and logistics; and we describe our plans for the future.
Cyberinfrastructure Begins at Home.
(2015-06-11) Hancock, David Y.; Henschel, Robert; Kallback-Rose, Kristy; Stewart, Craig A.
This presentation at the SPXXL winter workshop looks at cyberinfrastructure at Indiana University. It begins with an extensive look at IU's background and discusses where we are now, how we got here, and where we think we are going. It also covers some generalizations as well as looking at specific services and projects at IU including participation in XSEDE and the Jetstream system.
Storage Briefing: Trends and IU
(2013-08) Floyd, Mike J.; Seiffert, Kurt; Stewart, Craig A.; Turner, George; Cromwell, Dennis; Hancock, Dave; Kallback-Rose, Kristy; Link, Matthew R.; Simms, Steve; Williams, Troy
Storage technology is in a period of accelerating change. Rapid developments in flash memory and cloud services are the most visible indicators. Uses of storage face growing regulatory and funding agency compliance, and a growing bundling between software systems and storage options. This briefing presents information on industry, regulatory, and usage trends at Indiana University (IU), and comparisons of storage services with Purdue and other Committee on Institutional Cooperation (CIC) schools. The sections of this document are largely independent of each other, so readers may focus on areas of interest.
