OSU YouTube channel

Our YouTube channel currently features a mix of content, from polished commercials and official videos, to lectures and student-genereated pieces.

I’d like to say that we’re breaking new ground by launching an official YouTube channel for Oregon State. But in truth there are plenty other universities already out there. Perhaps the most trafficked and referenced YouTube presence even belongs to a school in our conference.

But I don’t feel like we’re arriving too late to be productive. We haven’t missed the dance; we’re just fashionably late. There’s no evidence that grassroots video is going anywhere. Nearly half the institutions referenced in a recent higher ed study on social media have an official channel. It’s becoming a serious forum for online outreach. Consider this:

Any doubts about the audience for educational video material have been dispelled by the experience of two University of Minnesota math professors, Jonathan Rogness and Douglas Arnold, whose short video, Moebius Transformations Revealed, has been viewed almost 1,300,000 times since its posting on YouTube in June 2007.

or this:

The UC Berkeley channel opened with more than 300 hours of videotaped courses and events on topics ranging from bioengineering to peace and conflict studies. The first video in a lecture series on integrative biology with professor Marian Diamond has been viewed 89,000 times. The first in a course titled Physics for Future Presidents, with professor Richard Muller, has been viewed more than 128,000 times. (Gulf Times)

or this:

Professors are the latest YouTube stars. The popularity of their appearances on YouTube and other video-sharing sites may end up opening up the classroom and making teaching—which once took place behind closed doors—a more public art. (Chronicle)

So we’re making a delayed but serious effort to learn how we can use YouTube to benefit our students and the institution. If you want to be a part of it, just let me know.

  2. what is testing in software: Software testing is the process of evaluating and verifying that a software product or application does what it is supposed to do. The benefits of software testing include preventing bugs, reducing development costs, and improving performance. Types of testing include unit, component, and system testing. Unit testing focuses on individual components within a program. Component testing examines each component separately and determines whether it functions as expected. System testing evaluates the interaction among multiple components or modules to ensure that they function together as expected.”

The most recent technology being utilized in various fields and sectors is artificial intelligence (AI). AI has been enabling noticeably dominant results as it continues to encroach into fields that were previously designated for human expertise. Similarly, AI is being used in the realm of software testing to streamline the automation testing process and offer higher quality results.

  4. A Requirement traceability matrix meaning(RTM) is a document that usually documents all requirements, test results, and issues. It demonstrates the relationship between these artifacts, often that a test was created for each requirement. RTMs can also be used as management checks to ensure that testing plans/matrices are complete and approved by the appropriate parties.

  5. The benefits of usability testing are clear: improved usability means a better user experience, which leads to higher traffic and more sales. User testing also reveals how your product will perform in the real world—and what you’ll need to modify before it goes into production. This can include the addition or removal of features, the rejiggering of user interface design and navigation, or even the expansion or contraction of a feature set.
