Longitudinal fieldwork-based research projects
This document summarizes a longitudinal research project involving students collecting ecological data from ponds and rivers located in a university botanical garden. The project aims to have students practice basic environmental data collection techniques and make recommendations to restore the ponds' natural habitats. Students collect field data using mobile devices and tools to measure variables like dissolved oxygen, pH, temperature, conductivity and turbidity. The project aims to teach students about ecosystem functioning while also contributing to long-term citizen science-style research. It also explores how outdoor learning can foster nature connection and positively impact students' attitudes, empathy and well-being.

The Community Involvement Programme at Canberra Primary School aims to actively involve pupils in contributing to the community. It is faculty-based with progression within and between faculties. Younger pupils focus on caring for their environment while older pupils take on more autonomy in their projects. Activities include litter picking, visits to recycling facilities, donation drives, and classroom-based social initiatives. The goal is for pupils to complete 6 hours of community service each year.

Social Sustainability in schools.pptx.pdf
Social sustainability in education involves designing schools and learning environments to meet students' social needs and promote their well-being and participation. This means providing students with the space, abilities, support, engagement, and opportunities to evolve and live healthy lives. Schools can work towards social sustainability by taking a deep look at each student's individual needs based on factors like age, learning style, culture, and personal challenges, and providing the right strategies, time, tools, and multicultural education to succeed. The main actors in achieving social sustainability in education are faculty, students, and internal and external stakeholders who facilitate courses through authentic learning environments, interdisciplinary approaches, and student-centered methods.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.
