Stories are frequently used in learning situations (e.g. elearning training scenarios), but fiction writing has several strategies that can be used to make those stories more interesting and compelling (and less boring).
August 6, 2014 brings Mid Summer’s Night Social, a joint meeting of the Friends of Euclid Creek, the Highland Heights Green Task Force, and the Greenwood Farm Association.
Greenwood Farm straddles Euclid Creek east branch, just below the Euclid bluestone waterfall. At the meeting, we will hike the east branch gorge in the area of the falls.
Greenwood Farm and the nearby Redstone Run Reserve are models for conserving escarpment run (lake-direct) ravines in Euclid and Richmond Heights.

DevLearn_Getting Started with Learning Content Analytics_Kineo (October 2023)...Cammy Bean
Just when you thought you'd gotten the hang of this L&D business, you now find yourself expected to talk in the language of Data & Analytics, using evidence to better inform L&D decisions. And yet Data & Analytics scores as the lowest capability for TD professionals according to the ATD Talent Development Capability Benchmark. While this session won't catapult you into the ranks of expert right out of the gate, let's get started together with some basic understanding to help you build your data and analytics acumen, while identifying some key components to building a more data driven learning organization.
How does this session address the problem?
In this session, we'll explore the need for data and analytics in the L&D space. We'll explore the core building blocks for a data-driven learning organization, including identifying what you will measure, how you'll capture and analyze that data, and how you'll engage the business with that data. We'll explore four data dimensions that allows us to generate data focused on improving learning outcomes: competence, perception, engagement, and reaction. And finally, we'll review some data dashboards from real-world learning solutions to attempt to tell a data story together of what happened and how we can use this data to improve the solution.

How can we design online learning experiences that actually make a difference in sharing knowledge, building skills, and ultimately improving performance? In this session, we’ll investigate the many types of e-learning, check out some key principles of good design, look at loads of examples, and talk about what to avoid in e-learning.

Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.

This map shows the developer’s proposed plan for the Couper Property.
4. This stream parallels the SW edge of the Couper property,
flowing into the Nashoba Brook via Nonset Brook and Butter
Brook. These are the headwaters of the Sudbury-Assabet-
Concord (SUASCO) watershed.
13. A hidden treasure, you cannot see this field from the
Great Road. Nor can you see any signs of manmade structure
from within this space and from most of the property.
3
14. Were houses to be built on this land, every one of these
vistas would disappear.
3
15. Swallows swooping over the lower field. A multitude of birds
sing from the trees along the edges of the fields.
3
16. In the wintertime these fields are criss-crossed with cross
country ski, snow shoe, and snowmobile tracks. A lot of
recreation happens away from our town’s playing fields.
3
17. The unspoiled vista looking back across the lower field from
the northeastern corner.
4
18. A delightful vista from the lower field into the central field.
You can see telephone lines on the Great Road from here,
but no cars.
4
19. Vista back toward the Great Road. We can hear cars but not
see them.
5
20. Tractor tracks across the middle of the central field, looking
in the direction of Donelan’s.
5
43. Looking into the orchard, with apple trees in the foreground
and a peach tree in the back.
9
44. The vista as we cross from the central field to the hilltop field.
9
45. The view down the hill towards the wooded island that stands
between the central field and the lower field.
9
46. Looking back into the central field with the apple trees along
the right side of the image.
9
47. In the field on the northern edge of the Couper property, the
pumpkins are working hard to be ready for October. In the
background you see the white roof of 171 Great Road.
10
55. A butternut tree grows along the edge of the wooded island.
Butternut was used by the Native Americans for oils,
and it is a prized cabinet wood.
11
57. We walk along the lower edge of the hilltop field, looking up
toward the Great Road, seeing nothing but sky and green.
11
58. These are the types of places where my family recreates.
Not on town playing fields,
but in the woods and the open spaces of Littleton.
11
59. The vistas of the Couper Land are hidden from the Great
Road. Preserving these vistas and this open space is about
more than preserving a 300 foot strip of land along the road.
12
60. We walk up the hilltop field along the southern edge of the
Couper Property. On the other side of the trees is the Pickard
Farm. Only as we crest the hill do we see telephone wires on
the Great Road.
12
61. From the break at the top edge of the hilltop field, we see
the pumpkins growing on the Pickard farm and a house in
the distance.
13
62. A lovely birch tree in the break between the Couper Property
and Pickard farm.
13
64. The pumpkins growing in the fields at the upper edge of the
Couper Property.These are the pumpkins my family and my
neighbors will pick in October.
13
69. Peaceful and serene vistas that feel like a world away from the
bustle of the Great Road.
14
70. We make our way back along the bottom edge of the lower
field. If this field is developed for housing, we will be left with
a series of yards and no open space.
15
71. From the edge of the lower field, peering into the woods that
will take us back to the Long Lake neighborhood.
16
72. A deer path leaves from the edge of the lower field,
diving back into the lower woods.
16
74. This is a wet forest floor, alive with growth.
16
75. Muddy land as we make our way back towards Oak Road.
16
76. From the edge of the Couper Property, looking across the
wetlands, alive with Cat-O-Nine Tails. The house in view is at
the end of Laurel Street.
17
78. And back to where we started, the headwaters of the Concord
River.
