  Secure AI with Privacy and Access Controls

  Artificial Intelligence brings transformative benefits but also unprecedented privacy, security, and compliance risks. Recent incidents (i.e. Samsung, McDonald’s, OpenAI, Slack) and regulatory actions show what happens when these risks are ignored. This  course teaches learners to secure AI systems by implementing privacy-by-design, least privilege, DLP, and dynamic access controls and to map these controls to global regulations. Through case studies, policy drafting, and hands-on labs, learners develop the skills to assess risks, deploy controls, and respond to incidents in real AI environments. No advanced programming or AI expertise is required. All you need is basic IT/security knowledge.

  Emerging Trends & Technologies in the Virtual K-12 Classroom

  Welcome to Emerging Trends and Technologies in K-12! This course will help you evaluate and implement technology in the most useful way within your virtual classroom setting. We will discuss the possibilities and challenges of using technology in fully online environments, although many of the ideas can be applied to blended and traditional environments as well. This course is focused on emerging trends and technologies, specifically for K-12 instructors. Most of the content will be aimed at high school-aged students in the U.S., or ages 13-18 in other countries. Due to the nature of some of the internet-based technologies, young students are required to be 13 or older to participate. That said, many of the examples we discuss can apply to younger ages. This course is focused on virtual education. In other words, blended or fully online teaching and learning experiences. Nevertheless, you can apply the concepts to a traditional class, adult education, and higher education. Lastly, please note that many of the examples will be U.S. based. Upon completing this course, you will be able to: • Define educational technology's role in supporting the virtual environment. • Identify and evaluate existing and emerging technologies for virtual course instruction or curriculum development. • Use collaborative learning tools to design and assess learning activities. • Use game-based strategies to deepen student engagement in virtual courses. • Research, evaluate, and employ open content in virtual education. • Debate the role of MOOCs in virtual K-12 education.

  Introdução ao Desenvolvimento de Aplicativos Android

  Este curso tem como objetivo propiciar um primeiro contato com a Programação para Dispositivos Móveis que operam na plataforma Android. O Android Studio será utilizado como ambiente de desenvolvimento desde o início do curso e você receberá dicas de como obter ajuda quando alguma tarefa estiver consumindo mais tempo do que o necessário. Ao solucionar problemas por conta própria, você irá adquirir a autonomia necessária para concluir projetos de programação. Ao final do curso, você desenvolverá um aplicativo. Para que você seja capaz de concluir o projeto final, nós listaremos algumas ferramentas que estão a sua disposição, além de materiais que mostram como utilizar essas ferramentas. Dessa forma, ao final do curso, você terá aprendido a (i) utilizar o ambiente de desenvolvimento, (ii) desenvolver uma interface gráfica simples com elementos pré-definidos, (iii) adicionar comportamento a essa interface gráfica e (iv) criar um aplicativo que interage com o usuário. Você não precisa ter muita experiência na linguagem Java para concluir este curso. Entretanto, é recomendável que você tenha um conhecimento básico de programação em Java. Você pode optar por estudar esses conceitos antes do início do curso e ainda buscar informações online quando algum aspecto da linguagem Java não ficar muito claro apenas com o material do curso.
