Learning Team Case – Week 4
A firm has five identified capital projects they could fund in the upcoming year. Each project has a initial capital cost of $5,000,000, however the firm only has $15,000,000 allocated for capital projects in the current year. The company needs to decide which projects to fund. The firms initial cost of capital (discount rate) is 8%.

6. If the firm could reinvest the $3,600,000 earned in year 1 from investment B at 10 percent, what effect would that information have on your what the return would be on the investment?
7. If the firm’s cost of capital had been 11 percent, what would be NPV of the investments alternatives? What would be the IRR for the investment projects?

What you don't know will hurt you: designing with and for existing contentSara Wachter-Boettcher
Are you trying to make responsive design scale for a complex site? Building an app, but your organization doesn't have an API yet? If so, you've probably got legacy content—content that already exists, and that doesn't fit neatly into your new project.
What do you do? You could ignore it and end up with one of those responsive homepages that devolve into big content blobs after just one tap, or a one-off mobile site that no one can remember to maintain. You could put it off until it becomes the bane of your existence: the thing that "breaks" your design, because it's way messier than you’ve planned for.
Or, you could deal with it. If you take the time to make existing content work for you—by understanding what you've got, identifying patterns and relationships in its structure, and cutting the cruft along the way—you'll end up with a system that will not just support your content, but _enhance_ its meaning, message, and power.
Give Your Students a Voice With Interactive Notebooks
Interactive Notebooks will change the way your students organize their thoughts, show creativity and express their knowledge of a subject. Using Interactive Notebooks, your students will have a significant decrease in lost papers and a more personalized education. Though this session is directed towards Science, Interactive Notebooks are easily adaptable for other subjects.

This presentation highlights the importance of Roadspace Allocation within transport planning and illustrates how to develop a successful Roadspace Allocation Framework. Further to this the presentation gives an insight to understanding and meeting user requirements. It then progresses to utilise various case studies in Birmingham to further demonstrate how these frameworks can be put into practice.
This presentation was delivered by Peter Jones from University College London on 2nd October 2015 and highlighted the importance of considering Link and Place when improving street design.

0x01 - Newton's Third Law: Static vs. Dynamic AbusersOWASP Beja
f you offer a service on the web, odds are that someone will abuse it. Be it an API, a SaaS, a PaaS, or even a static website, someone somewhere will try to figure out a way to use it to their own needs. In this talk we'll compare measures that are effective against static attackers and how to battle a dynamic attacker who adapts to your counter-measures.

This presentation, created by Syed Faiz ul Hassan, explores the profound influence of media on public perception and behavior. It delves into the evolution of media from oral traditions to modern digital and social media platforms. Key topics include the role of media in information propagation, socialization, crisis awareness, globalization, and education. The presentation also examines media influence through agenda setting, propaganda, and manipulative techniques used by advertisers and marketers.

(They were) Setting up their SAB
• Unitary authorities had no option but to expand their Drainage
Department to deal with SuDS
• Most County Authorities are taking the same approach, and were
recruiting new staff to fulfil this function
• Some were delegating the function of the SAB to the District
Authorities who were similarly employing new staff
Detailed application guidance
• Some counties have/are producing their own
detailed guidance
• Reliance on the practical application of C697
Potential problems
• Slow start to the system and steep learning
curve, and some authorities very unprepared
• Lack of consistency in approach around the country
• Uncertainty over what is likely to be acceptable
How are/were local authorities responding?

Typical submission and quality of information
Information in a Flood Risk Assessment
• Pond 1A – a wet pond, in the south west of
the site, approx capacity of 9125m3. To
receive all runoff.
• Pond 1B – a dry attenuation area to the east
of Newland road, approximately capacity of
1740m3. Sized to receive runoff for events
with a return period exceeding the 1 in 30
year.
• Area 1C buried attenuation – to be located
below the village green, approximate capacity
2430m3. Sized to receive runoff for events
with a return period up to the 1 in 30 year.
• Area 1D dry attenuation area – to be located
on the village green, approximate capacity of
960m3. Sized to receive runoff for events with
a return period exceeding the 1 in 30 year.
• Swales – theses have been assessed but they
would need to be considered at the detailed
design stage.
