On June 3, 2010, the Computer History Museum hosted a 6-session conference on the PLATO learning system. Session 3 was entitled “PLATO Software: Driven by a Clear, Compelling Challenge.” Session 3 Description: The software architecture of the PLATO Learning System permitted high interactivity with hundreds of users and a TUTOR programming language that enabled faculty (and gamers) to write their own interactive graphics programs. These capabilities required close management of scarce system resources. Learn how it all worked in this discussion with panelists: Dr. Robert Rader, Dr. Bruce Sherwood and Michael Walker. Steve Gilmor moderated the panel. PLATO Overview: PLATO was a centralized, mainframe-based system, with very sophisticated terminals connected to it. Its mission was to deliver education electronically at low cost. But it became much, much more than that. It quickly became home to a diverse online community that represented a microcosm of today’s online world. Much of what we take for granted in today’s hyper-active, always-on world of social media, blogs, and addictive computer games could be applied to what life was like on the PLATO system beginning in the mid-1970s.

This is our entry for the “I am Free Enterprise” video contest. Our team (Alyssa Dugan, Tristan Dugan, Jared Dugan, and Sean Dugan) is starting a software company called Honor Education. Our first project is Forge, a virtual world creation suite for kids and teens. It includes tools to design, model, animate, and program 3D worlds, games, and movies. Forge is designed to foster creativity and learning as well as to be fun and intuitive to use. We envision becoming a large company employing several hundred people in a wide range of fields including software engineers, web developers, graphic artists, and educators. We hope to make Northeast Indiana, specifically Fort Wayne, a hub for educational technology. Hope you enjoy the video!

What is Software Testing job about and what we have to learn to get a job. First session of Software QA class at Portnov Computer School – part 4. Software Testing (Software Quality Assurance) is a unique IT job market niche for those who have limited time frame to change career path to a well paid profession. The profession is easy to learn. Simply put the job of a software tester is in finding and reporting differences between actual behavior of a software product and its expected behavior. The more technical knowledge the person has the more jobs that person could qualify for. But even with very limited technical skills you can test many web applications from the user stand point email, on-line retail store, web-communities, on-line banking, games, educational services, and many others. Wikipedia defines Software Testing as the process used to measure the quality of developed computer software. Testing is a process of technical investigation, performed on behalf of stakeholders, that is intended to reveal quality-related information about the product with respect to the context in which it is intended to operate. This includes, but is not limited to, the process of executing a program or application with the intent of finding errors. Quality is not an absolute; it is value to some person. With that in mind, testing can never completely establish the correctness of arbitrary computer software; testing furnishes a criticism or comparison that compares the state and
