Comprehensive learning platform Simpliv has plans of extending knowledge to over 15,000 new learners every month

Fremont, CA: Simpliv LLC, a comprehensive knowledge platform, has chalked up a plan to enroll more than 15,000 new learners every month. Sensing the surging demand for industry-relevant courses in many areas, Simpliv has embarked upon its aim of reaching out to the fast growing community of learners across nearly all age demographics and in almost all parts of the world.

Its courses, offered in both the IT and non-IT areas, cut across the barriers of age, location and knowledge levels. Being a global player, Simpliv is confident that it can meet the rising global demand for online courses. Its courses are essentially aimed at closing learning gaps that many learners face around the world. These are some of the areas in which Simpliv will seek more learners for its online and video lesson courses:

Shahanshah Manzoor, Managing Director of Fremont, CA-based Simpliv LLC, believes that this is a very realistic figure to achieve in the coming months, and is optimistic that the figures will grow in the coming years, as the global learning community moves more proactively into online learning. “As the world shifts toward Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC) at a rapid rate, the field is now open to those companies that can cater to this huge growing demand. Our strengths are our understanding of this space, our set of experts who are very well-versed in the topics of interest to learners, our pricing, and, most importantly, our relevance to the industry. As the world moves towards professions that require skilling, we enhance their suitability to the job market in their specialization by offering courses that fulfill the exact needs of the profession.

We have found out during our research of the market that more often than not, more so in the markets of the developing world, there is a huge disparity between what students learn at school or college and what they face in the real world when they start working. Our extremely competitively priced courses help learners bridge this gap and help them stay abreast of the latest trends, techniques and methodologies in the market”, he said.

A platform for all kinds of courses

Having said this, Mr. Manzoor says, the field is wide open to nontechnical courses as well. “We have seen that informal learners, with or without any particular educational background, are in need of courses that help them finesse their extracurricular skills, in areas such as painting, digital photography, presentation or communication skills, meditation, acupuncture and many others. We have a huge collection of courses for such learners too, on our platform”. The aim of offering this variety of courses on its learning platform is, says Mr. Manzoor, to be a hub for learning for everyone on this planet, adding that he aims to make his company a source that learners from around the world will come to. He plans to brand Simpliv as a platform that learners will trust to deliver the most relevant, timely and valuable courses rather than simply as a money-spinning business. Simpliv’s intention is to stay for the long run in this market and earn a reputation as a knowledge platform that learners across the globe will find reliable and trustworthy.

Versatile teaching mediums

Towards achieving this objective, Simpliv offers a rare combination: of both the virtual classroom, as well as video streaming mediums, a first in the industry. While knowledge platforms offer either the virtual medium or video courses, Simpliv offers a unique mix of the two. While the short duration courses are aimed at helping learners to gain the knowledge needed to finesse their knowledge and close gaps in their learning; the high definition video lessons are aimed at working professionals and other groups who want a more detailed understanding of their topics of interest. Usually, these courses are scheduled at the weekends to suit learners’ convenience.

Exceptional refund policy

Another of the aspects at which Simpliv LLC excels is in its refund policy. Its 20-day refund policy, which is aimed at offering better service to its customers, is one of the best in the industry.

2000+courses and growing…

A major factor that gives Simpliv the confidence that it can scale up to being a global player of significance is that it in the short span of a little over a year since its inception, it has enlisted more than 2000 courses on its platform. Learners can look to Simpliv to offer courses that are as varied as one can think of. It is confident that its collection of courses will continue to grow at a rapid rate in the months and years to come, until it can be a platform for virtually every course that one wants to learn.

Several happy learners

The ultimate certificate it can earn, Simpliv believes, is the testimonials from its learners. Its learners have not been hesitant to speak highly of the value they have been deriving from the courses. A small sample of these testimonials:

Anand Kumar Verma, who undertook a Hadoop database course, gave it five stars, calling it “(A) must have course for better understanding of Hadoop concept”.

Dennis Immanuel Datudey, who took up a course on payroll management, is more than happy to give the course five stars. In his words, it was a “Very well pointed lesson about payroll management”.

Increase Your Brand Awareness Online – Tips and Strategies | Simpliv

There are approximately four primary methods by which businesses look to improve their brand’s public presence on the Internet today. The first is to work at improving their organic viewing visibility in search engines such as Google and Yahoo Bing. They do this by taking steps to improve the structures and content of their online assets such as their websites – which is called SEO or Search Engine Optimization.

Next they advertise on various search engines which is called SEM or Search Engine Marketing.

Businesses also build their presence on a number of social media sites; doing this in such a way so as to try to get viewers of their content on these sites to click on their content so as to be taken back to their websites or other locations where they can more fully present the products and services they offer and close sales to earn revenue.

And the last primary method is that they work hard at trying to become “authority figures” in their business niches so as to build external back links to their content selling locations. To do this, they contribute their thoughts to forums, they guest post on 3rd party sites and blog sites, they create published videos on sites like Vimeo and YouTube, they write articles and books, they interact with others on sites like Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat; and they do what ever else they can think of to get others thinking about them and talking about them.

This course touches on all of these areas; giving the student strategies and tips to employ so as to improve online awareness about their businesses.

If you are looking to improve your own venture’s online visibility, then this course is a good idea for you to take. Many of the ideas and strategies presented within could catapult your business to the next level of earning possibilities so consider making the small investment to proceed. And there is a money back guarantee paid by Udemy to you if you find the course does not meet your expectations. Having built this content, I don’t think you will be doing that though.

I look forward to seeing you sign up for this course. See you on the inside!

Best wishes,

Dan Grijzenhout – Course Creator

The Oozie Orchestration Framework

Prerequisites: Working with Oozie requires some basic knowledge of the Hadoop eco-system and running MapReduce jobs

Taught by a team which includes 2 Stanford-educated, ex-Googlers and 2 ex-Flipkart Lead Analysts. This team has decades of practical experience in working with large-scale data processing jobs.

Oozie is like the formidable, yet super-efficient admin assistant who can get things done for you, if you know how to ask

Let’s parse that

formidable, yet super-efficient: Oozie is formidable because it is entirely written in XML, which is hard to debug when things go wrong. However, once you’ve figured out how to work with it, it’s like magic. Complex dependencies, managing a multitude of jobs at different time schedules, managing entire data pipelines are all made easy with Oozie

get things done for you: Oozie allows you to manage Hadoop jobs as well as Java programs, scripts and any other executable with the same basic set up. It manages your dependencies cleanly and logically.

if you know how to ask: Knowing the right configurations parameters which gets the job done, that is the key to mastering Oozie

What’s Covered:

computer and technology concept

Workflow Management: Workflow specifications, Action nodes, Control nodes, Global configuration, real examples with MapReduce and Shell actions which you can run and tweak
Time-based and data-based triggers for Workflows: Coordinator specification, Mimicing simple cron jobs, specifying time and data availability triggers for Workflows, dealing with backlog, running time-triggered and data-triggered coordinator actions
Data Pipelines using Bundles: Bundle specification, the kick-off time for bundles, running a bundle on Oozie
Using discussion forums
Please use the discussion forums on this course to engage with other students and to help each other out. Unfortunately, much as we would like to, it is not possible for us at Loonycorn to respond to individual questions from students:-(
We’re super small and self-funded with only 2 people developing technical video content. Our mission is to make high-quality courses available at super low prices.
The only way to keep our prices this low is to *NOT offer additional technical support over email or in-person*. The truth is, direct support is hugely expensive and just does not scale.
We understand that this is not ideal and that a lot of students might benefit from this additional support. Hiring resources for additional support would make our offering much more expensive, thus defeating our original purpose.

It is a hard trade-off.

Thank you for your patience and understanding!

Who is the target audience?

Oozie Orchestration Framework

Yep! Engineers, analysts and sysadmins who are interested in big data processing on Hadoop
Nope! Beginners who have no knowledge of the Hadoop eco-system

Basic knowledge

Students should have basic knowledge of the Hadoop eco-system and should be able to run MapReduce jobs on Hadoop

What you will learn

Install and set up Oozie
Configure Workflows to run jobs on Hadoop
Configure time-triggered and data-triggered Workflows

Sikuli – Pattern-Matching and Automation

Sikuli - Pattern-Matching and Automation1

SikuliX is very unusual – a scripting/automation technology that relies on pattern matching, and is available for use via Python or Java. Developed at the User Interface Design Group at MIT, is a powerful and easy-to-use technology that uses image recognition to automate just about anything that appears on-screen.

Sikuli is rather hard to slot – it offers all of the functionality of an automation or scripting tool, but it also offers some powerful and very novel image-matching functionality for truly novel use-cases that revolve around image search. In addition it has an OCR-mode, in which image matches are performed after converting those image patterns to text. This gives rise to some pretty new applications.

The OCR-functionality is powered by Tesseract, an open-source optical character recognition engine whose development is sponsored by Google.

How to Teach Online 24/7/365

Introduction

How to Teach Online

A survey conducted by the Babson Survey Research Group regarding online learning showed that the number of students enrolled in one or more online courses was nearly 7 million in 2011. This was more than a half million increase over 2010. At the college level, 32 percent of students are taking at least one online course.

As online education literally explodes, the issue facing the education system is that teaching online is not the same as teaching face to face. If you’re a teacher, be it home school, public school, Bible study teacher, or someone who teaches a special skill or subject, you know this.

The question for many people wishing to transition to teaching in a virtual classroom is a very simple one: How do I do an effective job of teaching online?

That’s the question this course is designed to answer. In this course, University of Phoenix Advanced Certified Online Instructor David Lantz walks you through the teaching strategies being used by the best online college instructors to teach in an asynchronous online course.

Lesson Materials

How to Teach Onlinef

A total of 17 video lessons divided between 3 course modules constitute the core of the learning materials. These videos are recorded power point presentations converted to video designed to emphasize key learning objectives. Additionally, each module is accompanied by an ebook (PDF) designed to round out the video presentations. Each module is introduced and concluded by a video of the course creator, David Lantz.

A fourth module, Next Steps, concludes the course, and offers several other resources the student may wish to take advantage of.

Depending on the pace of the online learner, one should plan to spend about four hours going through the materials.

Course Organization

The course is divided into three modules. The first module, Creating a Culture of Self- Discipline Online, is designed to help you learn how to motivate your students to develop the self-discipline required to learn in the online environment. This module is, in turn subdivided into three parts.

Learning Modality and Student Motivation
Establishing Participation Expectations
Building an Online Community

The second module, Managing the Online Classroom, recognizes that online facilitation involves three basic areas of focus: organizational, social, and intellectual. The instructor, therefore, should see his or her role as being that as a facilitator of online learning, rather than simply the “Sage on the Stage.” This module is also subdivided into three parts.

Socratic Teaching: How to Teach by Asking Questions
It’s ALL About What you Say and How You Say It
Online Interaction: Best Practices

The third module, Preparing to Teach in the Flipped Classroom, examines the trend of having the student access the “lecture” via video/online instruction created by the instructor or another educator before coming to a face to face class. The role of the classroom teacher changes from Lecturer to Mentor. Rather than spending time teaching in class, the instructor uses learning-based activities. Doing this effectively requires the teacher to put a lot of effort into his/her course preparation up front. This module delivers the following three sessions:

Enabling Your Students to Learn 24/7/365
Creating Your On Demand Unidirectional Materials
Exploring an Asynchronous Learning Management Classroom

Why Take This Course

How to Teach Onlinega.png

The explosion in online learning requires educators who know how to teach online. Key research findings about student learning in the online classroom underscore the importance of having instructors who can manage the online classroom to insure that students learn. Online facilitation involves three basic areas of focus: organizational, social, and intellectual. How to Teach in the Online Classroom 24/7/365 covers all three of these aspects of online instruction to prepare you to teach online.

About David Lantz

Hello, my name is David Lantz. I’ve been teaching online at the college level since 2004. I was voted Faculty of the Year by the first graduating class of the Indianapolis Campus of the University of Phoenix. In May of 2012, I was awarded that school’s Advanced Facilitator Certification. In addition to teaching online for University of Phoenix, I teach for 3 other schools on such subjects as statistics, economics, E-commerce, and public relations. Five years ago, I set about the process of showing others how to teach online. I worked with my first pilot group of 8 students over a four week period to demonstrate best practice techniques for online, asynchronous teaching. With Simpliv’s powerful online course delivery system, I now have a way to take what we did in that prototype class and demonstrate the art of online instruction via video and downloadable text instruction.

Simpliv WordPress blog page reaches 500 followers in 50 days

When a fashion or sports item gains 500 followers on its WordPress blog page in 50 days, that is not something that usually gets written about, for the simple reason that these products are of such nature, being consumed by almost everyone. But, when a learning platform reaches 500 followers in a mere 50 days on WordPress blog, then, that is something to sit up and take serious note of.

This is what Simpliv has achieved! Being a platform for varied and diverse learning and gaining 500 followers on its WordPress blog page is not something even the most popular learning platforms are capable of achieving. But then, Simpliv has always had this ingrained habit of outdoing the rest and staying ahead of the pack. The fact of having reached 500 followers on its WordPress blog page in a matter of 50 days is testimony to this fact.

Are we proud of this achievement? Yes, we are, but it has also nudged us to do more. That is what any learning platform whose ambition is to make the world a more educated planet yearns for. Simpliv is not another pedestrian video library. We are a video library, but different in every sense.

How? Other online video libraries may churn out high sounding volumes, but Simpliv is not interested in the “courses that sell”. Its goals are loftier. It is concerned with the way the world educates itself. The market demand for the course, its IT or non-IT nature, and the profile of the learner are all of no consequence to Simpliv.

Towards bringing education to everyone who is interested in learning, Simpliv does away with all the artificial barriers we humans have put around education: race, gender, geographical location, economic status of the person, and many such others.

Simpliv likes to offer its sincere and heartfelt gratitude to you who have made this possible. We reiterate the commitment we have made to you: our courses will continue to be relevant, valuable, and fun to learn. Whatever you want to learn, come to us!
