The paths of Regina: Web Mapping to promote slow tourismMarco Minghini
This presentation was given at Maptime Milan on February 25, 2016. It presents the geoportal and the Web Mapping applications developed within the Interreg project "I Cammini della Regina" (http://www.viaregina.eu) by the GIS teams of Politecnico di Milano (Italy) and SUPSI (Switzerland). The main purpose of these applications – all developed with open source software – is the promotion of cultural heritage and sustainable tourism in the area of Via Regina (northern Italy).

High school and university leaders across the country continue to face significant challenges in the national campaign to increase rates of college access and success for the 21st century student. For many schools and community-based organizations, tracking alumni to and through college is a particular challenge. In this session, learn practical strategies and tools to track student enrollment from two organizations successfully tracking students through college. This session will include the do's and don’ts of tracking student postsecondary outcomes, including a practical user's guide to the National Student Clearinghouse, as well as an overview of the benefits and limitations of its StudentTracker Service for High Schools and Outreach Programs.
As part of the Institute’s Research Seminar Series, on June 10th Bryan Matthews talked about mobility strategies for visually impaired people, covering topics like wayfinding, mental mapping, and the potential inclusiveness of the built environment and new technological devices. The thought-provoking session culminated in a collective walk down University Road, where half of the participants wore ‘simulation spectacles’ to momentarily impair their own vision and paired up with the other half, who served as guides: as well as representing a unique convivial moment, the walk offered participants the possibility to become familiar with a similar mobility experience to that of visually impaired people, including the negotiation of narrow pavements, kerbs and stairs, zebra and pelican crossings. The walk was followed by a thriving Q&A session back at the Institute, and some of the participants recorded their impression in writing after the session, offering a number of interesting points which could perhaps be used for future research on the subject.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
