The document summarizes a digital marketing final project created by a group of students for their CUNY college. It describes the website they created called TheCUNYBuzz.com, which was meant to connect CUNY students. It provides details on the idea, structure, design, content, social media use, traffic attraction methods, analytics for site usage over two months, demographics of users, and strengths/weaknesses. It also reflects on what they learned and could have done better to promote the site more widely across CUNY schools.
Poverty is defined as a lack of material possessions or money. The presentation discusses poverty rates around the world, including in the Philippines, Bangladesh, Nepal, South Africa, Pakistan, Tanzania, Nigeria, and Singapore. Two organizations that help people in poverty are mentioned: Food Pantries, which helps locate food resources, and Viriya Community Services, which provides community services and medical funds to low-income families in Singapore. While poverty could potentially be solved by equally sharing incomes, this may infringe on principles of democracy, equality and individual freedom.
Lessons from reviewing and synthesising evidence on crime reductionLisa Tompson
?
Evidence syntheses are a common starting point when surveying the literature in many fields - they summarise and synthesise research findings across existing primary studies. The UK College of Policing, supported by the ESRC, took this approach when commissioning a team of academics to carry out research intended to support the newly established What Works Centre for Crime Reduction.
The first task was to identify all systematic reviews in the published literature on crime reduction (work package 1). We were then required to carry out 12 further systematic reviews on topics agreed with the CoP and ESRC (work package 2).
This presentation described what we learned from these two work packages. It will also briefly introduce EMMIE, a framework for communicating what works to practitioners wishing to implement an initiative in their area.
Our overall impression is that the current (primary study) evidence base in crime reduction is not yet at a state of maturity that enables practitioners to judge whether an initiative would work for their local problem; this compromises how informative evidence syntheses can be. Our conclusion is that more efforts need to be devoted to testing and refining programme theories, since these can contribute to knowledge on generalisability and, therefore, suggest which initiatives are likely to bring about crime reduction effects across a range of settings.

The participants researched applications of 3D printing and proposed using it to create a model of a stadium construction project. They first planned to design a stadium with each phase represented by height increases. However, they changed the proposal to a terrain model containing a stadium, solar-panel parking lot, condos, and surrounding fence, each with varying heights. They encountered obstacles in design and printing but overcame them. The project gave the participants hands-on experience with 3D modeling software and an understanding of 3D printing applications in various industries.
Adaptions to New Periods of Time with the Arts of JapanKen Guinto

The document summarizes how Japanese arts adapted and reflected different periods of history. It discusses two artworks - Sesson Shūkei's "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove" from the Muromachi Period and Katsushika Hokusai's "The Katakura Tea Plantation in Suruga Province" from the Edo Period. It explains that "Seven Sages" drew from Chinese art and aimed to provide an escape from political turmoil, while "The Katakura Tea Plantation" was part of Hokusai's series promoting domestic travel during Japan's isolation under the Tokugawa shogunate. Both works reflected how art addressed social and political circumstances facing common people during their
The document outlines the workshop schedules for the 12th and 13th Annual UC Davis Pre-Medical & Health Professions National Conferences held in 2014 and 2015. In 2014, the Saturday schedule included workshops on acupuncture, international medical schools, transfer students, and dual degrees. The Sunday schedule covered graduate school admissions, Chinese medicine, pre-veterinary topics, biomedical engineering, and community college to medical school paths. In 2015, Saturday workshops focused on leadership, PhD admissions, transfer students, and Chinese medicine. Sunday workshops were on prescription drug control, orthopaedic robotics, well-rounded applicants, and acupuncture career opportunities.
This document analyzes factors that affect traffic, including population increase, peak hours of traffic, construction zones, and border crossings. It summarizes various traffic models, including the Lighthill-Whitham and Payne-Whitham models. While traffic will likely always exist due to urban development and safety needs, understanding the causes of traffic through analysis can help drivers accommodate better and improve safety. The conclusion emphasizes that preparation and patience are key for dealing with inevitable traffic issues rather than attempts to fully eliminate traffic.
This document discusses analyzing the American Dream through a Marxist lens. It argues that applying Marxism can reveal hidden relationships between exploiters and exploited within capitalist societies. While the American Dream promises prosperity through hard work, some groups like immigrants face barriers that prevent them from achieving this. Examining the Dream with Marxism can help identify flaws and improve economic justice. However, a fully Marxist system could also create new exploiter/exploited dynamics. Overall, studying Marxism is useful to critically analyze economic systems like the American Dream, not to abandon capitalism altogether.
