Fit für die digitale Zukunft
Die Digitalisierung verändert die Gesellschaft, sie stellt neue Anforderungen an die Menschen und führt zu neuen Herausforderungen. Das ist inzwischen hinreichend bekannt. Was aber werden konkret die Herausforderungen sein, denen sich die Menschen stellen müssen, welche Fähigkeiten müssen sie sich aneignen und wie können sie sich optimal auf die kommenden Veränderungen vorbereiten? In dem Buch geht es nicht um einen theoretischen Blick in die Kristallkugel, sondern der Autor greift die schon erkennbaren Veränderungen auf und entwickelt daraus Handlungsempfehlungen, um eine Vorbereitung auf die Veränderungen zu ermöglichen. Dabei geht es um einen zusammenhängenden Blick auf die Fragen, die in absehbarer Zukunft relevant werden, wie z.B. Veränderungen in der Art des Zusammenlebens, dem Verhältnis von Staat und Bürger oder der Vermittlung von Fähigkeiten und Wissen. Ziel des Buches ist es, dem Leser nicht einen abstrakten Zugang zu wesentlichen Bereichen der Digitalisierung zu ermöglichen, sondern konkrete Themen, die für den Leser schon sichtbar sind, zu analysieren, die Hintergründe aufzuzeigen und ihm die Angst vor den kommenden Veränderungen zu nehmen.

Microsoft Teams For Dummies
WORK SEAMLESSLY TOGETHER WITH MICROSOFT TEAMSIt was only a matter of time before Microsoft 365 built an actual virtual office. And Microsoft Teams is it, rocketing from 13 to 75 million daily users in a single year. The new edition of Microsoft Teams For Dummies gives you an in-depth introductory tour through the latest version of the app, exploring the many different ways you can chat, call, meet, work remotely, and collaborate with others in real time—whether you're using it as an all-in-one tool for working from home or as an extension to your brick-and-mortar office. Available as a stand-alone app or as part of Microsoft 365, it allows you to work seamlessly with almost any other Microsoft app.The friendly onboarding provided by this book takes you from the basics of file-sharing, organizing teams, and using video to must-have insights into less obvious functionality, such as posting the same message to multiple channels, muffling background noise (useful if you're working from home!), and choosing more than one feed to concentrate on when video-conferencing (allowing you to pay attention to the speaker and your team members at the same time). As well as clueing you in on how things work, you'll also find advice on the most effective ways of using them, with best-practices recommendations and tips on integrating Microsoft Teams into your existing workflows.* Set up the interface* Communicate on chat and video, inside and outside your org* Integrate Microsoft Teams with your other Office apps* Optimize your approach to meetings, working across large teams, and more!Whether you're using Microsoft Teams for work, within your family, or for a collaborative hobby, you'll find everything you need to get everyone on the same page in the same virtual room.ROSEMARIE WITHEE is a technology professional and the author of the latest editions of Office 365 For Dummies and Sharepoint For Dummies, as well as the first edition of Microsoft Teams For Dummies.INTRODUCTION 1About This Book 1Foolish Assumptions 2Icons Used in This Book 2Beyond the Book 3Where to Go from Here 3PART 1: GETTING STARTED WITH MICROSOFT TEAMS 5CHAPTER 1: GETTING UP AND RUNNING WITH MICROSOFT TEAMS 7Wrapping Your Head Around Microsoft Teams 8Getting Familiar with Teams Terminology 10Getting Started with the Teams App 11Getting Teams for free 11Getting Teams through Microsoft 365 14CHAPTER 2: NAVIGATING MICROSOFT TEAMS 17Downloading, Installing, and Opening Teams 17Taking a Quick Spin Around Teams 22Activity 22Chat 23Teams 23Calendar 24Calls 24Files 26Using Teams Across Many Devices and Platforms 26Using Teams to Organize Your Life 27CHAPTER 3: STARTING YOUR FIRST TEAM AND MANAGING SETTINGS 29Creating a New Team 29Inviting People to Your Team 35Managing Your Team Settings 37Managing User Settings 40General 42Privacy 43Notifications 43Devices 44Permissions 44Calls 44PART 2: EXPLORING CHAT, TEAMS, CHANNELS, AND APPS 45CHAPTER 4: STAYING CONNECTED TO OTHERS WITH CHANNELS AND CHAT 47Instant Messaging in Teams 48Sending Messages in Channels 49Creating a New Channel 51Configuring a Channel 54Adding Moderators 57Moving from a Channel to a Chat 58Starting a private chat 59Adding multiple people to a chat 60Giving a chat a title 61Pinning a chat to the top of the list 62Sending More than Text When Chatting 62Adding emojis, GIFs, and stickers 63Adding a file 64Reacting to chat messages 66CHAPTER 5: EXTENDING TEAMS WITH APPS, BOTS, AND CONNECTORS 67Discovering Apps Already Installed 68The Files tab 68The Wiki tab 69Browsing and Adding Apps 70Exploring Popular Apps 74Popular apps from Microsoft 74Popular apps from third-party companies 78Integrating Teams with Microsoft Power Platform 80Power BI 81Power Apps 81Power Automate 82Power Virtual Agents 82Setting Permissions for Apps 83Getting Chatty with Bots 84CHAPTER 6: UNSHACKLING YOURSELF WITH THE TEAMS MOBILE APP 85Installing the Teams Mobile App 86Installing on iOS 86Installing on Android 86Finding Your Way Around the Teams Mobile App 89Tapping Your Way through Teams 92Interacting with messages 93Getting used to navigation 94Organizing Your Home Life 95Using the mobile app for chatting 96Using the mobile app for calling 97Sharing files with contacts or groups 98Planning events 99Sharing your location 100CHAPTER 7: WORKING WITH PEOPLE OUTSIDE YOUR ORGANIZATION 103Understanding How Teams Works with People Outside Your Organization 104Working with Guest Users 105Enabling guest access 105Configuring guest settings 106Inviting guests to the team 108Understanding the guest user experience 112Setting permissions for guest users at the team level 112Interacting with External Users 114CHAPTER 8: TAMING THE NOISE AND STAYING FOCUSED. 117Embracing the Activity Feed 118Hiding and Showing Teams and Channels 119Filtering by Team or Channel 121Changing the Order of Teams in Your List 122Muting Channels to Decrease Notifications 122Tracking Important Activity with Custom Notifications 124Searching for Past Conversations 124Getting Creative with Search and Hashtags 125PART 3: STAYING IN SYNC WITH MEETINGS AND CONFERENCING 127CHAPTER 9: WORKING REMOTELY: EMBRACING TEAMS TO MAKE MEETINGS BETTER 129Getting Up to Speed with Teams Meetings 130Viewing Your Calendar in Teams 131Creating a New Meeting and Inviting People 132Joining an Existing Meeting 136Using Teams for Conference Calls 137Connecting with Video 138Breaking Out into Breakout Rooms 141Getting Together with Together Mode 146Enabling Together Mode 147Using Together Mode in your meetings 147What Are Live Events?

Andererseits geht es dem Autor auch darum, dass Sie Git als Ganzes verstehen, um es effektiv im Entwicklungsprozess einsetzen zu können.Der Fokus des Buchs liegt auf dem praktischen Arbeiten mit Git.

Dabei legt der Autor großen Wert auf die Einbindung und Anpassung des Entwicklungsprozesses.Im zweiten Teil des Buchs werden fortgeschrittene Themen behandelt. Der Schwerpunkt liegt auf dem Einsatz von Git in Teams. Darunter etwa das Hosten verteilter Repositories mit GitHub und GitLab. Ein weiteres Kapitel behandelt die Workflows, die je nach Anzahl der beteiligten Personen, Branches und Repositories eines Projekts variieren.Darüber hinaus gibt Ihnen der Autor hilfreiche Informationen für den Umstieg von Subversion, einen Überblick über grafische Git-Programme, Hinweise für eine langfristig nachvollziehbare Git-Historie sowie eine Einführung in DevOps, wofür Git die technische Grundlage bildet.

Machtwechsel der Intelligenzen
Das Buch führt dem am gesellschaftlichen Leben interessierten Leser allgemein verständlich vor Augen, wie KI funktioniert und wie sie alle Lebensräume dramatisch verändern wird. Von der Geschichte der KI über ihre Techniken und ihre vielfältigen Anwendungsfelder bis zu ihren ethisch-philosophischen Implikationen werden alle relevanten Aspekte ausführlich dargestellt. Der Autor bleibt dabei nicht im Deskriptiven, sondern nimmt auch mit klaren Worten kritisch Stellung zur KI-Entwicklung. Für den Leser sind die Ausführungen als fachliches Stützkorsett angelegt, um gegenüber den KI-Experten als kundiger Counterpart auftreten zu können. Die letzten beiden Kapitel entführen den Leser in die Zukunft des Lebens mit der Super-KI. Mit gewagten Szenarien alarmiert der Autor den Leser auf vergnügliche Weise, welch atemberaubende und gesellschaftlich hochexplosive Perspektiven sich mit der KI verbinden und welche ethischen und philosophischen Fragestellungen sich daraus ergeben. PROF. DR. GÜNTER CISEK, der große Organisationen wie IMF und Weltbank berät und regelmäßig Gastprofessuren in Asien übernimmt, thematisiert mit Sprachwitz gesellschaftskritische Themen stets mit großer kosmopolitischer Erfahrung und interdisziplinärem Ansatz. Der Leser kann sich stets darauf verlassen, dass er nicht nur beschreibt und analysiert, sondern gesellschaftskritisch auch stets wertend Stellung bezieht.
