Bonner Directors 2016 - Sharing to Sustain and Support Bonner Campus StaffBonner Foundation
This document outlines a staff development framework for Bonner National Fellows with the following purposes: gain information about how professionals value their work, develop strategies to support careers and plans, provide time for discussion of work challenges, and allow for renewal/reflection to prevent burnout. It divides professionals into brackets based on years of experience (0-5 years, 5-10 years, 10+ years) and identifies relevant skills, challenges, and training/development needs for each bracket. The document concludes by posing discussion topics for breakout groups according to experience level.
Bonner Directors 2016 - Campus Wide Engagement Cohort Bonner Foundation
The document discusses strategies for increasing student-led campus-wide engagement based on the Bonner model. It notes challenges like lack of interest, resources and centralization. The Bonner model incorporates site-based teams, transportation, training and student leadership. The goal is to create a structure involving representatives from different campus groups that meet bi-monthly, elect student leaders and collaborate on initiatives. Examples from other schools integrate service into graduation requirements and use social media to mobilize students. Themes from a workshop emphasized deep, long-term service beyond incentives and 100% civic engagement through various commitment levels. The document asks how camps can transition structures to better support student-led engagement and what support is needed.
The document discusses developing "Community Engaged Signature Work" programs that integrate student learning with complex community projects, providing students an opportunity to produce capstone work through sustained partnerships between students, faculty, and community partners. It defines the key ingredients of such programs as reciprocal relationships, community-defined projects connected to academic study, and mentoring relationships. The document then prompts groups to discuss what aspects of these programs they already have in place and what would need to be developed further.

High-Impact Projects at a Glance: Displays from the 2014 InstituteBonner Foundation
During the summer High-Impact Institutes, teams spend about half of the time working collaboratively to create their strategies and plans for making civic engagement and community engaged learning deeper, more pervasive, and more integrated. This includes identifying new or existing high-impact educational practices (like First Year Experience or Internships) to connect with community engagement. It also includes finding ways to create, deepen and enhance community partnerships so that they integrate high-impact community engagement practices (like Place, Voice, Reciprocity, Sequence, Teams, and Inquiry).
Towards the end of the Institute, teams present their plans for feedback from other teams (peers) and coaches, reinforcing the learning community. In 2014, teams from Cohorts 1 and 2 presented their plans visually, on display boards, and networked with others to explain them in a charette session. Teams from Cohort 3, which began in 2014, then presented the next day verbally (not pictured).
These slides and photos capture some of the teams' plans and displays.
This study examines the relationship between affiliation with staffed family child care networks and the quality of care provided. It finds that providers affiliated with networks have higher quality scores than unaffiliated providers.

This is What Democracy Looks Like Powerbuilding -- Cali VanCleveBonner Foundation
Community organizing has always played a prominent role in the nonprofit world. But what about long-term, sustainable activism work? Power building is a newer sect of community organizing in which people can organize around a certain issue creating power within targeted communities. The Tennessee Immigrant and Refugee Rights Coalition (TIRRC) and its 501(c)(4) TIRRC Votes has created a movement across the state, and they build power within our immigrant and refugee communities through voter engagement and services such as legal aid, educational resources, etc. It is vital to recognize the diverse forms in which we can organize around election cycles beyond simply registering people to vote. If you're interested in either immigrant and refugee rights, voter engagement, or unconventional means of organizing, this would be the place for you!

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
