Volleyball is Joel's favorite active school sport because it keeps him fit and healthy. He enjoys eating fruit as healthy food to keep his energy up. Math is also one of Joel's favorite subjects in school because it challenges his brain and keeps him feeling smart.
The document discusses consolidating multiple databases into a single database in Oracle 11gR2. It outlines challenges in consolidation including different workloads, schemas, and security policies between databases. Goals of consolidation are reducing costs, standardizing management, and improving availability. Proper planning is key, including understanding applications, hardware, and new Oracle 11gR2 capabilities before implementing consolidation in stages.
The document discusses three topics important for active schools: healthy eating which includes drinking water and eating breakfast; playing sports for fitness and fun; and healthy learning through getting enough sleep, eating breakfast, being safe, listening in school, and attending every day.
This document discusses healthy habits for learning and sports. It recommends getting a good night's sleep, eating breakfast before school, staying hydrated with water during sports, and choosing healthy drinks like water, milk, soup and juice instead of sugary drinks. The overall message is promoting an active and healthy lifestyle for students.
The document discusses Aboriginal pedagogy and the common ground between Aboriginal and Western teaching approaches. It suggests that Aboriginal perspectives in education can be achieved by teaching through Aboriginal processes and protocols, not just content. Effective teaching focuses on "how" knowledge is shared rather than "what" is taught. Some common elements of effective Aboriginal and mainstream pedagogies include learning through narrative, visual planning, hands-on and reflective methods, symbols and place-based learning. The document provides classroom examples and a framework for incorporating Aboriginal ways of teaching and knowledge into lesson planning.

The document discusses research into developing computers that can interact with humans more naturally by perceiving emotions and sensory inputs like humans. Specifically, it discusses:
1) The BLUE EYES technology which aims to give computers human-like perceptual and sensory abilities to understand facial expressions and emotional states.
2) An emotion mouse which measures physiological signals through a mouse to determine a user's emotional state and build a personalized model to help computers adapt to individual users.
3) Prior research linking facial expressions, physiological measurements like galvanic skin response and temperature, and emotional states which provide a framework for the emotion mouse research.
A New Model: Advancing Organizational Security Through PeacebuildingMichele Chubirka
Why is the security industry so full of fail? We spend millions of dollars on firewalls, IPS, IDS, DLP, professional penetration tests and assessments, and vulnerability and compliance tools, and at the end of the day, the weakest link is the user and his or her inability to make the right choices. It's enough to make a security engineer cry.
The one thing you can depend upon in an enterprise is that many of your users, even with training, will still make the wrong choices. They will violate BYOD restrictions, click on links they shouldn't, respond to phishing scams, open documents without thinking, post too much information on Twitter and Facebook, use their pet's name as passwords, etc. But what if this isn't because users hate us or are too stupid? What if all our ignored policies and procedures regarding the best security practices have more to do with our failure to understand modern neuroscience and the human mind's resistance to change?
Humans are wired to be emotional beings. Emotions influence most of our decisions, good and bad. In failing to understand how this is at the root of user non-compliance, no matter how much money we spend on expensive hardware and software, we will fail to achieve the goal of good organizational security.

Chapter 5Making JudgmentsSnapshot of an episode from Cupid.docxchristinemaritza
The document provides an overview of Chapter 5 from a psychology textbook. It discusses how people make judgments through both conscious and unconscious cognitive processes. Unconscious processes like schemas and scripts allow for quick judgments by organizing prior knowledge and expectations about concepts, objects, and sequences of events. However, relying on unconscious processes can also lead to errors in judgment. The chapter outlines several unconscious heuristics and cognitive biases that influence decision-making.

Social cognitive theory in mass communication - Prepared by Fiza Zia Ul HannanDr. Fiza Zia Ul Hannan
This theory refers to the cognitive capability to learn and adopt new knowledge in ways a human mind has not comprehended before. Its philosophical description deals with understanding of the psycho-social mechanisms, which affect human thought and action.
This document proposes a study to examine how interactive digital media can augment human compassion. It outlines a design concept using two interactive art installations to test participants' engagement, affective states, and perceptions of care/connection. Surveys would assess these factors, with open-ended questions to identify processes leading to compassion development. Future research could explore whether reflective components or duration/intensity impact effect, testing changes in compassion over time for those exposed to such media.

This document provides a review of artificial intelligence focusing on embodied artificial intelligence, models of artificial consciousness, agent-based artificial intelligence, and philosophical commentary on AI. It summarizes the history and major developments in AI from the 1950s to the present. While many models and theories of consciousness have been proposed, very few have been implemented and there is little consensus in the field. The achievements of AI to date are viewed as meager compared to the initial expectations.
The evidence against cell phone use during class timeShane Fifield
The document summarizes research showing that cell phone use can negatively impact learning and attention. It discusses how the brain has two systems - an automatic intuitive system and a slower rational system. Cell phones overload the rational system, making it impossible to focus and learn. It also explains how social media apps are designed to take advantage of dopamine responses and conditioning to make users addicted to checking their phones constantly. The conclusion warns that spending time on apps means others profit from users' addiction and wasting opportunities for self-improvement.
Why code robots, avatars and software agents with compassion? In one word: Neuroplasticity. Repeated exposure to objects, relations,emotions changes who we are. Recent Discoveries in Neuroscience, neuroendocrinology, Psychoneuroimmunology, etc. show biological benefits from compassion - witnessing it, giving it or receiving. Designing technologies without considering how they change us, without designing to display or encourage compassionate we are in some sense encouraging our psychopathic tendencies through our daily interactions. Slides contain some disturbing graphics.

3. Affective Computing: Affective computing is computing that deals with the attempt to make machines which can detect and respond to human emotion. The term "Affective Computing" was the title of an article by Professor Rosalind Picard at the MIT Media Lab in 1995 Reference: http://www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/Affective-computing
4. Academic Paper One: Affective Computing: Challenges Rosalind W. Picard MIT Media Laboratory, Room E15-020G, 20 Ames Street, Cambridge, MA 02139-4307, USA Received 17 January 2003; accepted 5 February 2003
5. Say Hello to SPOCK: Half-Vulcan/half-human Very intelligent Highly rational & Highly unemotional When someone never expresses Emotion, it is tempting to think that Emotion is not there.
6. Machines: Example: Macintosh has been displaying a smile for years when successful boot-up. People tend to confuse the smile as An emotional expression. Machines can fake the appearance Of an emotion, without having any Similar to those we have.
7. Rosalind W. Picard Explains: “ Machines that might actually “have” Feelings is the key area of Affective Computing.” In this paper: She addresses and responds To the criticisms and challenges which have Arisen in affective computing explaining Why it might be more valuable than Previously expected. Published books: Affective Computing, Picard 1997 & 2003
9. Criticism: The range of mean and modalities of emotion expression is so broad, with many of These modalities being inaccessible (e.g., blood chemistry, brain activity, Neurotransmitters), and many others being too non-differentiated. This makes it Unlikely that collecting the necessary data will be possible or feasible in the Near future.
10. Criticism 2: The sine qua non of emotion expression is the physical body. To the extent that computers do not have physical bodies, they cannot reliably and believably express emotion. Existing attempts at expressing emotions in robots which are at times referred to as embodied, are unrealistic and therefore unconvincing, and unable to Generate the type of affective responsiveness characterising human-human interaction.
11. Coco – the interactive monitor: Ability to move its monitor, expressing ways that respond to and encourage its user’s own postural movements.
12. Zizi the affectionate coach: Home of tomorrow Zizi growls when sat upon, purrs when touched and groans with delight when you stroke her fur. If left alone, she mews for attention.
13. Academic Paper Two: Evaluating Affective Interactions: Alternatives to asking what users feel Rosalind W. Picard, Shaundra Bryant Daily MIT Media Laboratory, Room E15-020G, 20 Ames Street, Cambridge, MA 02139-4307, USA 2005 paper
14. Classical methods: Such as – Questionnaires: asking you what you feel now Interviews: with a video set up, recalling what happen earlier in the task These methods are valuable and are still used today, this paper will highlight Some alternatives to self-report of feelings.
15. The Paper: Divided into two categories: Body Measures (e.g. Change in muscle activity) & Task measures (e.g. Better ability to a solve a creative Problem)
19. Task Measures of Affect: Findings show ways that affective states tend to influence various behaviours during different tasks. Within different situations can change the outcome of an individuals Interaction changing their behaviours.
20.
21. Academic Paper Three: Ambient Display using Musical Effects Luke Barrington, Michael J. Lyons, Dominique Diegmann, Shinji Abe University of California, San Diego 2006
22. The Paper Examine the communication of information about human affect, and construct A functioning prototype which captures behavioural activity level from the face and maps it to musical affects.
