Disentangling The Sources of Growth
This document analyzes the sources and determinants of agricultural growth in Africa from 1970 to 2000 using panel data from FAOSTAT for 26 major agricultural producing countries. It finds that:
1) Physical capital (land, labor, fertilizer, tractors) accounted for about 50% of agricultural growth on average, with the contribution varying by region and decade.
2) Technological change (represented by total factor productivity) contributed 30-40% of growth on average but its contribution declined in later decades.
3) The remaining 10-20% of growth was due to improvements in efficiency and unaccounted factors like conflict, climate, and policy changes.

Ergonomics
Definition : Ergonomics defines from two Greek words ergon means work and nomoi means a
natural laws, to create a word that means the science of work and a person’s relationship to that
work. It is a term thrown around by health professionals and marketing mavens with a cavalier
attitude. For some it has a very specific meaning.
The scientific discipline concerned with the understanding of interactions among humans and
other elements of a system, and the profession that applies theory, principles, data and methods
to design in order to optimize human well-being and overall system performance.It is the attempt
to make work better that ergonomics becomes so useful. And that is also where making things
comfortable and efficient comes into play.
Ergonomics is commonly thought of in terms of products. But it can be equally useful in the
design of services or processes.
Implementation
Developing and Implementing an Ergonomics Process and is written from the stand point of the
early stages of initiating a process. The procedure begins with someone identifying the need and
approaching management for support than the champion. Typically, the champion should gather
data to provide management with justification for the project. Some of these topics were
addressed in Section but are reiterated here to provide an overview of the entire strategy or plan
of implementing a process. Once management has agreed to support the project, a sponsor is
selected from upper management. The corporate office sponsor is responsible for writing a
project charter that recognizes the business need for implementing an ergonomics process . The
charter will provide written documentation of management’s commitment to the project, stating
that safety and health is as important as production. Management should identify the appropriate
cost account for the project and give an estimated budget for implementation. Management
should also choose or recruit the project manager early in these stages so he or she may
participate in the planning process. The champion may be assigned the position of project
manager or another candidate may be recruited to fill the position. Depending on the
organizational structure there may also be facility project managers. The charter should also
provide for the formation of a multi-functional ergonomics team. Depending on the size of the
company, there may be a committee at each facility. Management should provide documented
authority to the manager and should authorize time and money expenditures for the committee. It
is the responsibility of the project manager to assign and communicate responsibilities to the
project . The ergonomics initiative is typically part of the health and safety department or the
engineering department. In addition to the creation of the committee, management should outline
its position on ergonomics in other areas.
For example, ergonomics should be a consideration for all new product designs, tools, new

The Just-In-Time (JIT), Toyota Production Systems (TPS), and Lean systems are theories that related in one way or another. The Toyota Production System based on the Jidoka and Just-in-time concepts. The Just-in-time system ensures that each process yields what is required for the next process. This is done continuously. It involves the efficient production of high-quality products through removing waste and unnecessary requirements during production. The JIT system discourages holding minimal or no inventory, only that which is required for the next production process and distribution. The lean manufacturing system is a westernized version of the JIT system that is based on knowledge. Just like JIT, the lean system also aims towards the minimal holding of inventory. The characteristics of JIT and lean system are quite similar in that their terms are similar too.
JIT, TPS AND Lean systems may each have their advantages and disadvantages if used by Nissan. The advantages of the JIT system include minimal costs incurred to cover wastes and inconveniences. Another benefit is that the costs that would have been spent on acquiring and holding unnecessary inventory can be used for other purposes (Advantages and Disadvantages of Just-in-time Jit Manufacturing and Inventory Control System, 2010). The locations that were previously used to store the unnecessary inventory can be used for other purposes. Time wastage is also reduced by this system, allocating more time to consumer satisfaction. The disadvantages of this system include the incurring of high costs when implementing the system. Suppliers are at risk if they incorporate this system, since if they experience a hitch in their processes, they will not have inventory to fall back on. This system is prone to interruptions. The advantages of the Lean system include its reduction of costs incurred. This system also improves the efficiency of an organization and promotes time-saving. It also promotes the skillful growth of employees in an organization. The lean system reduces wastage as well (Advantages & amp: Disadvantages of Lean Production). The drawbacks of this system include time wastage. This is quite possible since certain organizations tend to spend too much time tracking wastes and production processes. The benefits of the TPS system include the promotion of production of quality goods and offering of quality services. TPS minimizes on costs, hence ensu ...

The document summarizes research on using predictive modeling to predict how well people perform specific exercises at the gym based on data from wearable sensors. It describes applying classification tree and random forest models to a dataset containing sensor data from participants performing bicep curls. Classification trees work by recursively splitting the data into partitions to predict the exercise class, while random forests create many classification trees and have the trees vote to make predictions. The models were able to accurately predict the exercise class based on the sensor data.

The After Life App has great potential to compete with the e
The After Life App has great potential to compete with the existing clubbing software in the market. However, the app design work was conducted using insights collected from existing bibliographies as well as intensive market study. Most of the approaches used in this study enabled the designers to come with features that would capture Brighton students’ attention (Curtis, Lahiri and Brown, 2015). The major challenge that makes Android apps and Apple apps not to perform well in the current technology market is inadequate market research and reduced ability to address users’ needs.
Potential Frameworks, Techniques, and Theories
The positive impacts of the software can be measured using the general opinion given by users and its compatibility with internet connected devices. In this consideration, the PESTEL analysis was utilized at large to help the designers to install features that will stimulate positive usage of this application. This approach played a crucial role in guiding developers on how to create functions that would satisfy government and social needs (Joorabchi, Mesbah, and Kruchten, 2013). More importantly, the principle supported technological diversity where the app was engineered in such a way that it became flexible and easier to operate.
After launching a trial of this application, we witnessed a burgeoning development in user’s ability to control their clubbing ticketing behaviours. In this consideration, the app has been able to promote positive behaviour in the society and comply with the government rules and regulations. The goal of this app was to support operators in locating clubs of their choice at an affordable price (Song and Oh, 2016). Indeed, this app improves users’ ability to make sound clubbing decisions; thus, supporting ecological and legal considerations of this app.
The underlying hypothesis in the software development; the After Life App largely stimulates mental and physical impact on customers’ lives. Mainly, using this software client’s lifestyle is changed where they can only visit clubs which the app indicates (Pakroo, 2016). To a greater extent, when designing this App, the developers considered the software ability to enable long-lasting positive behaviours. The software plays a significant role in promoting user’s capability to locate secure clubbing sites which also offers high-quality services.
The other approach used in the design and development of this software is Tuckman principles. This model of software development ensured that the After Life software is beautiful to operate and it is entrenched on reminding customers about their best clubbing joints. In the quest to influence clients’ daily life, the team of developers remained focused since they had undergone Tuckman first and second stages, forming and storming where compatible individuals were selected. Notably, this approach argues that software developers need to solve or norm their differences to be able to come up with an app ...

The document provides information about the Circular Design Case, which is a learning experience and design competition to help designers create products, services, and systems for the circular economy. It outlines the submission requirements, which include a system map of an everyday product highlighting 3 circular opportunities, and a "One question for systems change" template. The judging criteria and timeline are also mentioned. Additional resources are provided to help participants learn about circular design and systems thinking through videos, diagrams, and examples.
The After Life App has great potential to compete with the e.docx
The document discusses the development of the After Life App, which aims to help students locate clubs. It describes several frameworks and techniques used in designing the app, including PESTEL analysis, Tuckman's model, and the 4 Ps marketing model. The 4 Ps approach influenced app design the most by focusing on an affordable price, high quality product, promotions, and addressing user needs. Initial user feedback indicates the app is valuable, affordable, and easy to install. The document evaluates the effectiveness of combining multiple frameworks in app development.
Rough draft final calming tech
This document describes a study where participants received text messages with different stress-reducing techniques to try over three days. The techniques were passed between 10 participants in a chain to promote awareness of stress relief options. Most techniques were passed along the chain, and those who broke the chain once were still fully engaged. The study found that reminding people to reflect on calming techniques was more important than actually doing the suggested technique. It also found that separating users by one degree helped encourage positive support without direct social comparison.
Calm creators.1
This document summarizes a pilot test of a stress-reducing technique sharing program called "Pass the Calm!" Over 3 days, 10 people shared 21 calming techniques via group text messages. The goal was to help people become more mindful of stress levels by suggesting simple relaxation activities and comparing to others' suggestions. Feedback indicated it helped people bring new calm ideas into their lives and see how their ideas compared to others in a fun, evolutionary process of stress reduction technique sharing.

The disadvantages of this system include the incurring of high costs when implementing the system. Suppliers are at risk if they incorporate this system, since if they experience a hitch in their processes, they will not have inventory to fall back on. This system is prone to interruptions. The advantages of the Lean system include its reduction of costs incurred. This system also improves the efficiency of an organization and promotes time-saving. It also promotes the skillful growth of employees in an organization. The lean system reduces wastage as well (Advantages & amp: Disadvantages of Lean Production). The drawbacks of this system include time wastage. This is quite possible since certain organizations tend to spend too much time tracking wastes and production processes. The benefits of the TPS system include the promotion of production of quality goods and offering of quality services. TPS minimizes on costs, hence ensu ...
Final Project
The document summarizes research on using predictive modeling to predict how well people perform specific exercises at the gym based on data from wearable sensors. It describes applying classification tree and random forest models to a dataset containing sensor data from participants performing bicep curls. Classification trees work by recursively splitting the data into partitions to predict the exercise class, while random forests create many classification trees and have the trees vote to make predictions. The models were able to accurately predict the exercise class based on the sensor data.
The State Startups – Matti Schneider
How can one improve public action when one knows how to build digital products in an agile fashion?
By building them where no one expects them anymore: in the heart of the State.
The State Startups are an experiment of the French government, aiming at solving specific problems between the government and a segment of the beneficiaries under six months.
The beneficiaries can be citizens claiming their rights to benefits (mes-aides.gouv.fr), companies replying to a public call for tenders (mps.apientreprise.fr), entrepreneurs trying to budget hires (embauche.sgmap.fr), transparency actors accessing public open data (data.gouv.fr).

The After Life App has great potential to compete with the e
The After Life App has great potential to compete with the existing clubbing software in the market. However, the app design work was conducted using insights collected from existing bibliographies as well as intensive market study. Most of the approaches used in this study enabled the designers to come with features that would capture Brighton students’ attention (Curtis, Lahiri and Brown, 2015). The major challenge that makes Android apps and Apple apps not to perform well in the current technology market is inadequate market research and reduced ability to address users’ needs.
Potential Frameworks, Techniques, and Theories
The positive impacts of the software can be measured using the general opinion given by users and its compatibility with internet connected devices. In this consideration, the PESTEL analysis was utilized at large to help the designers to install features that will stimulate positive usage of this application. This approach played a crucial role in guiding developers on how to create functions that would satisfy government and social needs (Joorabchi, Mesbah, and Kruchten, 2013). More importantly, the principle supported technological diversity where the app was engineered in such a way that it became flexible and easier to operate.
After launching a trial of this application, we witnessed a burgeoning development in user’s ability to control their clubbing ticketing behaviours. In this consideration, the app has been able to promote positive behaviour in the society and comply with the government rules and regulations. The goal of this app was to support operators in locating clubs of their choice at an affordable price (Song and Oh, 2016). Indeed, this app improves users’ ability to make sound clubbing decisions; thus, supporting ecological and legal considerations of this app.
The underlying hypothesis in the software development; the After Life App largely stimulates mental and physical impact on customers’ lives. Mainly, using this software client’s lifestyle is changed where they can only visit clubs which the app indicates (Pakroo, 2016). To a greater extent, when designing this App, the developers considered the software ability to enable long-lasting positive behaviours. The software plays a significant role in promoting user’s capability to locate secure clubbing sites which also offers high-quality services.
The other approach used in the design and development of this software is Tuckman principles. This model of software development ensured that the After Life software is beautiful to operate and it is entrenched on reminding customers about their best clubbing joints. In the quest to influence clients’ daily life, the team of developers remained focused since they had undergone Tuckman first and second stages, forming and storming where compatible individuals were selected. Notably, this approach argues that software developers need to solve or norm their differences to be able to come up with an app ...
Learning Journey Circular Design
The document provides information about the Circular Design Case, which is a learning experience and design competition to help designers create products, services, and systems for the circular economy. It outlines the submission requirements, which include a system map of an everyday product highlighting 3 circular opportunities, and a "One question for systems change" template. The judging criteria and timeline are also mentioned. Additional resources are provided to help participants learn about circular design and systems thinking through videos, diagrams, and examples.
The After Life App has great potential to compete with the e.docx
The document discusses the development of the After Life App, which aims to help students locate clubs. It describes several frameworks and techniques used in designing the app, including PESTEL analysis, Tuckman's model, and the 4 Ps marketing model. The 4 Ps approach influenced app design the most by focusing on an affordable price, high quality product, promotions, and addressing user needs. Initial user feedback indicates the app is valuable, affordable, and easy to install. The document evaluates the effectiveness of combining multiple frameworks in app development.

Rough draft final calming tech
This document describes a study where participants received text messages with different stress-reducing techniques to try over three days. The techniques were passed between 10 participants in a chain to promote awareness of stress relief options. Most techniques were passed along the chain, and those who broke the chain once were still fully engaged. The study found that reminding people to reflect on calming techniques was more important than actually doing the suggested technique. It also found that separating users by one degree helped encourage positive support without direct social comparison.
Calm creators.1
This document summarizes a pilot test of a stress-reducing technique sharing program called "Pass the Calm!" Over 3 days, 10 people shared 21 calming techniques via group text messages. The goal was to help people become more mindful of stress levels by suggesting simple relaxation activities and comparing to others' suggestions. Feedback indicated it helped people bring new calm ideas into their lives and see how their ideas compared to others in a fun, evolutionary process of stress reduction technique sharing.
Text2calm home2sanctuary
The Home2Sanctuary project involved sending daily text messages to 8 participants asking about their evening relaxation activities over the course of a week. Most participants reported increased mindfulness about relaxation techniques as a result. While stress levels generally stayed the same or decreased, participants unanimously felt they were more conscious of relaxation methods. The personal nature of the text messages seemed to create accountability and motivation to engage in deliberate relaxation. Overall, simply reporting daily activities led participants to adapt their behaviors to improve relaxation without prescriptive suggestions.
Crummy test findings
A pilot study tested having participants take two deep breaths and smile before entering their home to de-stress after work. Participants reported feeling happier and more appreciative of their home after adopting this small behavior change. They also started applying it when entering other rooms and spaces. The study suggests expanding it further, such as incorporating it into the entire commute home.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying Them
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
