The CRS link student scores on the EXPLORE, PLAN, and ACT assessments to curriculum and instruction to improve academic achievement. The CRS provide benchmark scores that indicate students' readiness for college-level courses and the likelihood of earning certain grades. The document also examines strategies to better prepare students for college through high school coursework, teaching, and support systems.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can affect all aspects of a person's life due to trauma exposure. PTSD symptoms include flashbacks, nightmares, avoidance, emotional issues, anger, hypervigilance, anxiety, and dissociation. While substance abuse and emotional numbing are negative coping mechanisms, treatment can help people cope with PTSD.
Howard Carter's discovery of Tutankhamen's tomb was one of the greatest archaeological finds ever because it was untouched, containing a wealth of artifacts and treasures. Carter studied the Valley of the Kings for years and eventually located the tomb, taking months to fully excavate through multiple plaster walls. The untouched tomb provided invaluable insights into ancient Egyptian culture and beliefs about the afterlife, filled with artifacts reflecting Tutankhamen's life that Egyptians placed in tombs to accompany them.

This document summarizes a presentation on customer acquisition strategies. It discusses key findings from research on how consumers prefer to be contacted by companies compared to how marketers currently engage consumers. There is a preference gap shown between these two. The presentation also shares results from a fantasy football marketing campaign that engaged fans by tapping into the insight that many fans will select players for their fantasy team that are not actually on the real team they support. This campaign helped drive significant growth in registrations and engagement through leveraging an understanding of fan behaviors. The document concludes with a panel discussion on effective acquisition strategies.

The document discusses a survey of technology education at Deepwater Elementary School. It analyzes the school's performance in four key areas: teaching and learning, educator preparation and development, leadership and administration, and infrastructure. The school's results are shown on a STaR chart, which indicates its strengths are in infrastructure for technology but weaknesses are in teaching and learning, as teachers have not fully integrated technology into the curriculum despite available resources. The document aims to identify areas for improvement based on this analysis.

The document analyzes the Kuokuang Petrochemical Project from an economic perspective. It finds that the project's estimated annual external costs of NT$56.9-112.1 billion related to greenhouse gases, health risks, agriculture/fisheries, and the environment exceed its benefits of NT$36.5 billion. It also finds that petrochemical industries contribute less than 4% to GDP and have low employment impacts. The document concludes that extending domestic ethylene production through this project is unnecessary if the market is overseas, and that the project should not be implemented given its costs outweigh benefits and it will increase social inequity.
4. 消費者剩餘 (CS) 之計算 需求函數 假設需求函數具有固定彈性( Constant Elasticity )的特性,在計算需求曲線下之面積時, 由於 Q 逼近原點的 P 值趨近於無窮大,將會使積分式得到無限大的結果,所以,為解決此一問題,本研究將假設 P min 為 10 倍的 P* 值,帶回需求方程式即可得 Q min 在鄰近原點處予以截斷取近似值,令 Q min 及 P min 為截斷點,則可求算其購買者剩餘。所求購買者剩餘計算式如下:
17. 水資源成本計算 地層下陷成本 。 「地層下陷的社會成本評估- CVM 與 HPM 結合之應用輔助計畫成果報告書」(經濟部水資源局, 1998 )研究指出,屏東地區因地層下陷所衍生的每年社會成本的上下限值分別為 1,019 與 270 億元。若依據該報告的公式計算彰化縣地層下陷的最大下陷深度每下陷一公分時,其社會成本的下限值和上限值為 59.5 億元至 240.2 億元 ,因此 成本需視 國光石化所造成的地層下陷深度而定。 地層下陷所衍生之社會成本可以歸納如下:社會成本=公共支出之增加+地價稅減少之損失+土地價值降低之損失。 依「養殖漁業輔導方案之評估」(行政院研究發展考核委員會, 1998 ),以屏東地區的標準去推估至彰化縣與雲林縣,以推求出地層下陷的社會成本,計算公式如下 : 0.5 為假設下陷深度與下陷範圍兩個影響因子對社會成本值所占的權重相同 ; C i 為屏東縣以外的縣市因地層下陷所衍生的社會成本(億元); D i 為其他縣市的最大下陷深度( cm ); D p 為屏東縣最大下陷深度( cm ); A i 為其他縣市下陷速率超過 3 公分/年的下陷範圍( km2 ); A p 為屏東縣下陷速率超過 3 公分/年的下陷範圍; C p 為屏東縣因地層下陷所衍生出的社會成本。 由上式 推得當地層每下降一公分時,所增加的社會成本之上下限值,邊際成本式子如 下:
