In today's ever-changing educational sphere, the seamless integration of technology is paramount, elevating learning experiences, fostering seamless collaboration, and catalyzing innovation. As we delve into the Gulf Education Summit Jeddah 2024 Chronicles, we explore how advancements in mobile app development, website development, and ecommerce website development are shaping the future of education in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA).

1. Custom Mobile App Development: Empowering Learning On-The-Go

Mobile applications have emerged as powerful tools for delivering educational content and engaging learners outside the traditional classroom setting. At the Gulf Education Summit Jeddah 2024, mobile app development takes center stage as educators and ed-tech enthusiasts showcase innovative apps designed to empower learning on the go.

1.1 Interactive Learning Modules

Mobile apps offer interactive learning modules that cater to diverse learning styles and preferences. Whether it's interactive quizzes, educational games, or multimedia presentations, these apps engage students in immersive learning experiences, making education more accessible and enjoyable.

1.2 Personalized Learning Journeys

With the help of mobile apps, educators can personalize learning journeys based on individual student needs and preferences. Adaptive learning algorithms analyze student performance data to deliver customized content and assessments, ensuring that each student receives tailored support and guidance.

1.3 Seamless Communication

Mobile apps facilitate seamless communication between students, educators, and parents, fostering collaboration and engagement. Features such as instant messaging, discussion forums, and push notifications to keep stakeholders informed and connected, creating a supportive learning community.

2. Website Development: Building Digital Learning Platforms

In the digital age, websites serve as essential platforms for hosting educational content, facilitating communication, and promoting collaboration. At the Gulf Education Summit Jeddah 2024, website development takes on new significance as educators explore innovative ways to build digital learning environments.

2.1 Centralized Learning Resources

Educational websites act as centralized repositories for learning resources, providing students and educators with access to course materials, textbooks, and supplementary resources. By organizing content in a structured manner, these websites streamline the learning process and enhance information retrieval.

2.2 Interactive Virtual Classrooms

Website development enables the creation of interactive virtual classrooms where students can attend lectures, participate in discussions, and collaborate on projects in real-time. Virtual whiteboards, video conferencing, and screen sharing functionalities replicate the traditional classroom experience in a digital environment.

2.3 Continuous Assessment and Feedback

Educational websites support continuous assessment and feedback mechanisms, allowing educators to monitor student progress and provide timely feedback. Online quizzes, assignments, and peer reviews enable ongoing assessment, helping educators identify areas for improvement and tailor instruction accordingly.

3. Custom Ecommerce Website Development: Facilitating Access to Educational Resources

Ecommerce website development plays a crucial role in facilitating access to educational resources, tools, and services. At the Gulf Education Summit Jeddah 2024, ecommerce solutions empower educators and learners to discover, purchase, and utilize educational products with ease.

3.1 Digital Content Marketplaces

Ecommerce websites serve as digital content marketplaces where educators can discover and purchase educational materials such as e-books, videos, and online courses. These platforms offer a wide range of educational resources curated by experts, enabling educators to supplement their curriculum with high-quality content.

3.2 Learning Management Systems

Ecommerce solutions support the integration of learning management systems (LMS) that enable educators to create, deliver, and manage online courses. LMS platforms offer features such as course creation tools, student enrollment management, and progress tracking, empowering educators to deliver engaging and effective online learning experiences.

3.3 Professional Development Opportunities

Ecommerce websites provide access to professional development opportunities such as online workshops, webinars, and certification programs. Educators can explore a variety of courses and training modules tailored to their professional interests and career goals, enhancing their skills and expertise in the field of education.

Conclusion

In conclusion, mobile app development, website development, and ecommerce website development are driving innovation and transformation in the KSA educational sector. By harnessing the power of mobile apps, websites, and ecommerce platforms, educators and learners can access high-quality educational resources, engage in interactive learning experiences, and collaborate in virtual environments. As we embrace these technological advancements, we pave the way for a more accessible, inclusive, and dynamic education system in the Gulf region.

World Wilderness Congress Focuses on Indigenous Knowledge

"Humanity stands at a crossroads and must come together to realize dramatically different and supportive relationships with one another, the Earth, and all life on the planet, if we are to surmount cascading ecological and social crises now underway."

That was the message of Chief Arvol Looking Horse, the spiritual leader of the Lakota, Dakota, and Nakota peoples, who on Sunday welcomed hundreds of attendees to the 12th World Wilderness Congress convening this week in the Black Hills, or He Sapa in the Lakota language. Though these gatherings, dedicated to assessing and often resetting global conservation work, date back to the 1970s, this is the first such congress being convened by a tribal authority. The agenda is dedicated heavily to centering Indigenous perspectives in the global struggle to protect wild lands and waters.

Indigenous peoples articulate alternative environmental perspectives and relationships to the natural world. Indigenous mythologies and oral traditions express a non-anthropocentric environmental ethic. Indigenous groups offer ancient tried-and-tested knowledge and wisdom based on their own locally developed practices of resource use. And, as Native peoples themselves have insisted for centuries, they often understand and exhibit a holistic, interconnected and interdependent relationship to particular landscapes and all of the life forms found there. Despite making up a tiny fraction of the world's population, Indigenous peoples hold ancestral rights to some 65 percent of the planet. This poignant fact conveys the enormous role that Native peoples play not only as environmental stewards, but as political actors on the global stage.

All over the world, Native peoples are engaged in battles with hostile corporations and governments that claim the right to set aside small reserves for Native people, and then to seize the rest of their traditional territory. They are confronting the destructive practices of industry and leading the charge against climate change while defending the rivers, forests and food systems that we all depend on. At the same time, they are blocking governments from eroding basic rights and freedoms and turning to the courts of the world to remedy 500 years of historical wrongs. Native peoples are putting their lives on the line and fighting back for political autonomy and land rights. And all the while, they are breathing new life into the biocultural heritage that has the potential to sustain the entire human race.

Looking Horse, the 19th Keeper of the Sacred White Buffalo Calf Pipe and Bundle, is as revered among the original people of this land as the Dalai Lama is by the people of Tibet or the Pope for Catholics around the world.

"We warned that some day you would not be able to control what you had created. And that day is here. Mother Earth is sick and has a fever," Looking Horse told the group assembled from nations, tribes, and communities across the world.

The chills of that "fever"--the accelerating shocks of climate destabilization caused by centuries of colonial extraction, fossil fuel combustion, and ecological destruction--rocked communities around the world in 2023, with 2024 continuing to break heat records. A "State of the Climate" report that drew on the work of nearly 600 scientists pointed to unprecedented levels of greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere as the cause of Earth's overheating. Records were similarly broken for ocean heat, sea-ice loss, and sea-level rise. In all, industrially-driven global warming exposed nearly 80 percent of the people on the planet to at least 31 days of extreme heat, another study found. This level of heat was virtually impossible if not for the burning of fossil fuels and development-driven deforestation, Climate Central researchers have reminded us.

But organizers and attendees at WILD12 aren't there to haggle over carbon credits or debate the benefits and risks of carbon capture technologies and blue hydrogen, the substance of so many climate gatherings and debates. Instead, The WILD Foundation, through decades of international gatherings, aims to interrupt one driver of climate crisis that gets far less air time than carbon emissions: the global loss of the planet's wild spaces, which for millions of years have served as the planet's lungs and carbon sinks.

Yet even conservation spaces and agendas have offered a shallow understanding of problems and solutions, overlooking the deeper cultural--and thus colonial--roots of ecological collapse. What makes this year's congress so significant is its aim to reformulate the global conservation agenda not only by placing Indigenous leadership at the forefront of conservation action, but more foundationally, by centering Indigenous knowledge and worldviews in understandings of what Western cultures call wilderness.

In other words, the cultural roots of the collapse of our shared biosphere lies not in the make, model, or brand of the tools we use to clearcut forests or fuel plastics production. Rather, it lies in a fundamental misunderstanding that goes all the way to the bottom of Western thought: the hierarchical dualism that imagines the "human" as both separate from and superior to "nature".

Perhaps the most important aspect of Indigenous cosmology is the conception of creation as a living process resulting in a living universe in which a kinship exists between all things. Thus the Mother Earth is a living being, as are the Sun, Stars and the Moon. Hence the Creators are our family, our Grandparents or Parents, and all of their creations are children who are also our relations.

What needs to be understood and challenged, then, is the very basic conceptual groundings of Western culture itself, which gave birth to capitalism as a global economic system for extracting profit both from the bodies of people racialized and gendered as "others" and from land, treated as a dead thing or "resource" to extract from. For it is these philosophical and economic assumptions that--especially from an Indigenous perspective--facilitated colonization and enabled the genocides, slavery, and racial capitalism that followed.

The industrialized West is largely unaware of how Indigenous societies have functioned and the strengths they possess that industrial cultures have lacked. Our notions of progress are based on the idea that high tech means better, and that industrial cultures are somehow more advanced socially. The current state of our threatened environment demands that communication channels be opened for dialogue and engagement with Native environmental ethics. Native people are not only trying to protect water sources, clean up uranium tailings and mount opposition to fossil fuel extraction, they are also continuing their spiritual ways of seeking to celebrate and support all life by means of ceremonies and prayers.

Summit Wealth Investment Education Foundation: Maximizing Tax Benefits with 501(c)(3)

Summit Wealth Investment Education Foundation: Maximizing Tax Benefits with 501(c)(3)

A 501(c)(3) organization refers to corporations, trusts, unincorporated associations, or other types of organizations that are exempt from federal income tax under Section 501(c)(3) of Title 26 of the «United States Code». It is one of 29 types of 501(c) nonprofit organizations in the U.S.

The 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status applies to entities established and operated for public interests such as religious, educational, charitable, scientific, literary, testing for public safety, fostering national or international amateur sports competition, and preventing cruelty to children or animals.

The U.S. tax code allows donors to most 501(c)(3) organizations to deduct their charitable contributions from their federal income taxes. These deductions require documentation, such as a receipt for donations over $250. Because of this tax benefit, having 501(c)(3) status is crucial for the survival and operation of a charitable organization.

Many foundations and corporate charters stipulate that they will not donate to organizations without 501(c)(3) status. Similarly, individual donors might be deterred from contributing to such organizations due to the lack of tax deduction benefits.

Private foundations, sometimes called non-operating foundations, get most of their income from investments and donations. These funds are primarily donated to other organizations rather than being used directly for charitable activities. Private foundations are defined by Section 509(a) of the Internal Revenue Code as 501(c)(3) organizations that do not meet the criteria for public charity status.
