This document discusses the positive impact of instructional technologies on student achievement. It outlines 5 major goals that can be achieved: increased student interest; development of higher-order thinking skills; improved test scores and grades; changes in teacher and leadership roles; and ability to apply learning to real-world situations. It provides research evidence showing that technologies like laptops can boost student engagement, writing quality and skills like research analysis when used in learning. Test score data from one study shows laptop students earned higher GPAs and more A/B grades than non-laptop students. The role of teachers also shifts to focus more on guiding higher-order skill development with technologies.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
The document discusses the benefits of meditation for reducing stress and anxiety. Regular meditation practice can help calm the mind and body by lowering heart rate and blood pressure. Studies have shown that meditating for just 10-20 minutes per day can have significant positive impacts on both mental and physical health.

This document describes a system called UProRevs that aims to personalize web search results based on a user's profile and interests.
The system works as a filter that takes the results from a normal search engine like Google and re-ranks them based on their relevance to the user's profile. It generates user profiles based on information provided during registration, and updates the profiles over time based on the user's feedback on search results.
The system calculates relevance scores for search results by comparing the keywords in each web page to those in the user's profile. Results are displayed along with their relevance scores. As the user provides feedback, their profile is updated, allowing the system to continuously improve the personalization of search

Social media is a fundamental shift in human communication that allows information to spread rapidly. To be effective on social media, one needs a clear point of view, should create engaging content for their target audience, and leverage location data to provide useful information to consumers. Transparency, customer service, and gamification can help build fans and followers.
Gutenberg's invention of the printing press in 1453 had a profound influence on spreading information and challenging authorities. One of the earliest newspapers was published in 1690 in colonial America but was banned after one issue for emphasizing "conflict" and "fear". The Boston News-Letter, published starting in 1704, was the first genuine American newspaper but had few subscribers because its content was cleared by the Governor and deemed uninteresting. The trial of John Peter Zenger in 1734 set an important precedent for press freedom in America by establishing that truth is a defense against charges of seditious libel.

What if we could start over again? What startups have to teach big businessCory-Ann Joseph
Content strategy has had a lot of lightbulb moments since the first CS Forum four years ago. However after seeing the same problems over and over again I started to wonder how big businesses got themselves into such a hot mess of content in the first place.
So, I went back to the start – and talked to four startups – a mix of digital and physical products, those who relish content and those who struggle with it. I asked how much content they produce (a lot), do they have a content person (nope), do they plan to hire a content person (nope to that too), and how that all makes sense if content is valued to them (and it was).
Discover what I learnt, including where good practices and bad habits start, and how to create, grow and maintain a content strategy as your organisation grows.

University Of Antwerp Ken Lawrence Lights Camera InteractionThisco
This document analyzes the relationship between electronic games and cinema. It discusses how early games shared some similarities with primitive cinema in their emphasis on "showing" rather than "telling". It also examines how games have incorporated cinematic conventions and techniques over time, such as using scrolling screens and creating an illusion of depth. While games borrow visual elements from film, their visual evolution is not purely chronological and is determined more by the desired player interaction. Cutscenes in games are also analyzed in terms of their use of cinematic techniques compared to gameplay sequences.
University Of Antwerp Ken Lawrence Contemporary Film Auteurs Haute TensionThisco
This document provides an analysis of the 2003 French horror film Haute Tension directed by Alexandre Aja. It examines how the film uses various postmodern concepts and techniques. The analysis discusses how the film presents itself as a simulacrum or fabrication, with evidence that the entire narrative is constructed by the character Marie. It also explores how the film deconstructs concepts of identity, particularly through the subject fragmentation of Marie and her creation of an imaginary killer. Finally, it notes how the open-ended conclusion presents a relativity of narrative that is postmodern in nature.
University Of Antwerp The Uk Digital Television Landscape Ken LawrenceThisco
This document discusses interactive digital television in the UK. It covers the benefits of digital TV for viewers and broadcasters, the different ways to receive digital TV in the UK, research on adoption of digital TV, UK providers like Freeview, BSkyB, NTL and Telewest, the failure of ITV Digital, and the UK government's plans for digital switchover by 2010. Research shows price is a major barrier to adoption, and some experts question if the government's 95% target can be met on time.
University Of Antwerp Seminar Diversity In The Third World Ken LawrenceThisco
This document provides an overview and summary of the negative impacts of globalization and international organizations that propagate it, specifically the IMF. It discusses how the IMF has shifted from Keynesian ideas to neoliberal ideology focused on deregulation, privatization, and liberalization. While these policies may work in theory, in practice they have often been disastrous for developing countries when implemented too quickly and without consideration for local needs. The IMF is also criticized for its lack of democratic oversight and focus on numbers over social outcomes.
University Of Antwerp Paper International Business Environment Ken LawrenceThisco
The document provides an analysis of the business environment in Ecuador using the PEST framework. It finds that Ecuador has a history of political instability with no president completing a full term in recent years. The economy relies heavily on oil and agricultural exports, leaving it vulnerable to global price fluctuations. While dollarization in 2000 stabilized inflation, unemployment remains high at 9.3% and income inequality is a major issue. Opportunities may exist for industries utilizing Ecuador's low-cost labor force, but infrastructure and education levels pose challenges. Overall, the analysis finds business opportunities in Ecuador but also significant political and economic risks to navigate.
