The Natural Connections project engaged students and teachers from two local high schools in outdoor learning activities over the course of an academic year. Surveys conducted at the start and end of the project found that students reported increased confidence and connection to their community, though some reported decreases in skills. Teachers reported improvements in all areas for students, including attendance, skills, and attitudes. Students were found to lack self-belief in their abilities. By the end of the project, students built appreciation for local green spaces and felt more connected to their community. Teachers saw gains in students' employability attributes and intend to continue outdoor learning programs.

Interim Review January-June 2014: Strong development in orders received continued - profitability improvement proceeding according to plan

Las Líneas de Producto Software (LPS) pueden por tanto englobarse dentro de ese
anhelo recurrente dentro de la Ingeniería del Software que es la reutilización. Pero nos han
recordado que mejorar la reutilización no lleva necesariamente a reducir los costes
globales de desarrollo debido a los costes adicionales de desarrollar (y gestionar)
precisamente estos artefactos re-usables. Las LPS han vuelto a recordarnos que la
reutilización eficaz no es sólo un problema técnico, sino también de procesos y
organización. El proceso determina cuándo y dónde se debe realizar el esfuerzo de reutilización.
La decisión no es baladí. De hecho, muchos de los fracasos en el desarrollo
basado en componentes (también orientado a la reutilización) se deben a fallos en el
proceso, más que en las técnicas que se utilizaban: se invertían esfuerzos en hacer el
componente reutilizable para determinadas situaciones que finalmente no se presentaban.

In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

Living expenses vary, depending on each student’s individual lifestyle,
but TWD$10,000-$15,000 is considered adequate to cover monthly
living expenses in Taiwan.
You can exchange USD, HKD and JPY for the New Taiwan Dollar (TWD)
at most banks in Taiwan, and the head office of the Bank of Taiwan offers
currency exchange services for many other currencies. Please consult the
banks in your home country prior to your departure to see whether you
can use your credit cards / bank cards to withdraw money in Taiwan and
if there is any transaction charge.

Meals
Taiwanese cuisine is delicious and popular among foreigners. There are a
variety of restaurants around NTU. You could choose to eat at one of the
numerous on-campus cafeterias, which serve anything from a bowl of
noodles to full set meals at very reasonable prices (less than TWD100), or
at restaurants outside the campus. Generally, a meal costs around TWD80
to TWD250 in Taipei.
Grocery Shopping
There are many grocery stores and shops in Taiwan. Most stores in Taipei
are usually open from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. throughout the week, but we also
have many 24 hour supermarkets such as Wellcome Supermarket.

with a wide array of ready meals, snacks, beverages, magazines, and
daily necessities. Other services such as copy machines and ATMs are
available as well.
Telephone
In order to make overseas calls from the public phones in Taiwan, you
need to purchase a prepaid telephone card. If you would like to carry a
mobile phone, you can purchase a prepaid card at the airport at a mobile
phone shop after arriving in Taiwan. It is highly recommended that
foreigners buy the prepaid card at the airport, since it is easier and faster.
