The document proposes a community marketplace called Light Graphos that allows photographers to rent and share photography equipment and knowledge. It notes that while digital photography has increased hobbyist photographers, equipment can be expensive. Light Graphos aims to create a win-win-win situation where photographers can both rent out their unused gear to make money, and rent gear they need to save money, while also sharing photography expertise. The proposed business targets the large and growing US photography market and industry worth over $230 billion.
This document summarizes Sydney M. vanderWal's educational background and research interests, including three completed research projects. The independent study found no overall significance in using science notebooks and/or digital classroom photos to improve science literacy. However, significance was found within test sections. Qualitative research interviews found digital photos can enhance language comprehension and stimulate deeper thought. A mixed-methods group project found no overall test score differences between conditions but photos positively impacted some students. A new proposed mixed-methods study will photograph 4th grade students during science and apply photos to unit post-tests to further examine the impact of personal digital photos on memory recall.
This document summarizes Sydney M. vanderWal's comprehensive research review and outlines three of her past research projects exploring the use of digital photographs to stimulate students' declarative memory in science. Her independent study found no significant effects of science notebooks and digital photos on a science literacy test. Qualitative interviews found digital photos helped student comprehension and recall. Her mixed methods group project found no test score differences between classroom photos, generic photos, and no photos, but photos qualitatively helped some students, especially English learners. Her proposed new mixed methods study will use students' classroom photos on science tests and interviews to understand photos' impact.

The document outlines construction milestones and timelines for four projects - Magnolia Manor, Whitewater Manor, Walker Manor, and Frederick Manor. It provides dates for acquiring properties, completing site preparation, foundations, construction stages, and occupancy for each project, with the earliest occupancy date being August 2008 and the latest being October 2009.
Magnolia Manor will provide education, training, and support to help people gain independence and move out of poverty through three main programs:
1) A rehab center that will offer training and link participants to experts worldwide to pursue home ownership and micro-enterprise creation.
2) A neighborhood assistance program focused on a blighted area to support development and provide tax credits for congregations' outreach work.
3) Support similar to a program in Kentucky that provides housing, education funds, and mentoring for single parents pursuing university degrees.
