Open Data Kit (ODK) is an open-source suite of tools that helps organizations author, field, and manage mobile data collection solutions. Our goals are to make open-source and standards-based tools which are easy to try, easy to use, easy to modify and easy to scale. To this end, we are proud members of the OpenRosa Consortium and active participants in the JavaRosa project.

ODK's core developers are researchers at the University of Washington's Department of Computer Science and Engineering department and active members of Change, a multi-disciplinary group at UW exploring how technology can improve the lives of under-served populations around the world.

Short Description:
Our hope is that this guide to citing personal experience and interviews meets our goal of supporting students to produce their own knowledge, as well as honoring the academic value of their lived experience and the experiences of their families and communities. Through the use of a set of guidelines we created for students to cite personal experience and interviews, we found students self-reported increase in engagement and success in academic assignments. We propose this set of guidelines are an important practical tool for critical, feminist, and anti-racist pedagogy, as well as a method for teaching ethical research.

This Pre-Calculus Review handbook supplements via ancillary notes and practice problems from the OER textbooks 1. Apex PreCalculus, 2. OpenStax Algebra & Trigonometry – 2nd edition
and 3. OpenStax PreCalculus – 2nd edition. The text allows for a greater synergy between the calculus and pre-calculus portions of the course.

The objectives of this course are as follows: Demonstrate an understanding of graphical representations of data and their interpretation; Demonstrate a competency in mathematical tools of decision making, including derivatives and analytical optimization; Demonstrate an understanding of descriptive statistics, hypothesis testing, and the theory of regression; Demonstrate competency in the use of software used in quantitative analysis, including Excel tools and statistical software. This textbook is organized to support you in these goals. The textbook is adapted from Contemporary Calculus, written by Dale Hoffman from Bellevue Community College and Business Calculus written by Shana Calaway from Shoreline Community College. New material is written by Margo Bergman from University of Washington Tacoma.

Identity theft has become a fact of life during the past decade. If you are reading this, it is a safe bet that your data has been breached in at least one incident. Does that mean we are all helpless? Thankfully, no. There is a lot we can do to protect ourselves from identity theft and to make recovery from cyber incidents quicker and less painful.

Student Experiences at UW Tacoma

Short Description:
Telling Our Stories: Student Experiences at UW Tacoma is a collection of video stories and reflections, created by undergraduate students in TCOM 347: Television Criticism & Application. Students worked in teams to document and produce short digital stories highlighting the experiences of other UW-Tacoma students with regards to one or various aspects of their identity, whether related to race, ethnicity, class, gender, sexuality, disability, place of origin, etc. With the goal of understanding how students' identity, and overall way of seeing the world, affect their college experience. Through this work, students engaged in conversation about their own social identities and their positionality in relationship to the people they are interviewing.

Long Description:
The Telling Our Stories project is designed so students work in teams to document and produce short digital stories highlighting the experiences of other UW-Tacoma students with regards to one or various aspects of their identity, whether related to race, ethnicity, class, gender, sexuality, disability, place of origin, etc. The goal is to understand how student’s identity, and overall way of seeing the world, affect their college experience, whether in the classroom or on other spaces across campus.

Through this course, students have engaged in conversation about their own social identities and their positionality in relationship to the people they are interviewing. The project employs different elements of pre-production, production and post-production, skills the students have begun to learn through this class. In addition to the videos, students have also developed this online platform where the work can be viewed and made accessible to the public.
