Poster draft
Despite over 30 faculty members in the humanities department, sharing of resources is limited to small "cliques" and no platform exists for department-wide sharing. The research question asks what barriers prevent broader sharing and if they can be overcome to create a common sharing platform for lesson plans. Reasons given to promote sharing include saving time by accessing online resources, learning from others' experience and expertise, and improving teaching quality and support through online networks. Potential barriers to sharing are also noted.

Green Funds 2.0 Nitty Gritty Of Campus Sustainability Fund Management
prepared by Mieko Ozeki, Katherine Walsh (UC Berkeley), Kevin Ordean (Northern Arizona University), Lilith Wyatt (McGill University), Melody Hartke (North American University), and McKenzie Beverage (University of Illinois- Urbana Champaign) and presented at the AASHE 2012 Conference.
A campus sustainability fund (also called green fund) is money available to campus community members for sustainability projects. Money for the fund may be from student fees, administrative budgets, or alumni donations and funding may be allocated in the form of grants or loans. Currently, there are over 175 green/sustainability funds in North America run by 155 institutions. Our goal as session leaders is to educate our audience beyond the basics of sustainability funds, by adhering to an overall theme of “So you have established a sustainability fund, what next?” We will cover case studies from six well-established sustainability funds and address key differences and patterns in how these funds have evolved in their management and processes.
Topics covered include: 1) strategies for soliciting sustainability projects; 2) criteria for projects: what can and cannot be funded; 3) project implementation plans and long-term support of projects beyond initial funding; 4) sustainability fund staffing and committee structures; 5) advising project leaders; and 6) and quantifying and reporting the metrics of funded projects.
Session leaders will break the 60–minute session into three 20-minute sections: (1) project solicitation and developing selection criteria with committees and staff; (2) project implementation, advising project leaders, and reporting structures; and (3) long-term integration of the fund and projects with institutional goals and structures. Each 20-minute section will include presentation from the session leaders and Q&A with the audience. The opening question we plan to answer is “What are we trying to accomplish with these funds?” and the concluding question we plan to answer is “What are the broad educational impacts of sustainability funds?” Post session we intend to create a white paper on best practices of managing a sustainability funds that will include case studies. This workshop is part of a series and a follow-up to Green Funds 1.0: Getting a Fund Started.

Relational DAC Practices Project
Here are a few ideas for how we could work on this research agenda together:
- Divide up the literature to review - different team members could each take responsibility for synthesizing a few key areas like team effectiveness, collaboration, family systems, etc.
- Set up working sessions to come together periodically to share our findings, discuss connections to DAC, and identify gaps/new areas to explore
- Conduct interviews or focus groups with leaders in different contexts to learn what relational practices they use to increase direction, alignment and commitment in their organizations
- Develop case studies that illustrate how relational leadership plays out in various settings not well represented in existing research
- Create a matrix or map linking relational practices to leadership outcomes
Integrating High-Impact Practices
This presentation and all staff (125+) member conversation by the Bonner Network involved exploring how higher education service programs can strategically link community engagement with high-impact learning practices. This session gave staff the opportunity to share their own campus examples of high-impact practices such as first year seminars, learning communities, core curriculum, writing intensive courses, internships, global immersions, undergraduate research, and capstones. This session occurred at the Bonner Foundation's Fall Directors Meeting 2011. For more info see bonnernetwork.pbworks.com

Reciprocity in Learning: Co-creation with undergraduate students- creating co...IL Group (CILIP Information Literacy Group)
This document summarizes a co-creation project between university staff and students to create online guides for incoming students. Students helped plan and create content for a website about what a typical week is like at the university. The project aimed to give students ownership and share expertise between students and staff. Evaluation found high website usage and positive feedback from participants who felt they learned from each other. The reciprocal nature of co-creation allowed different perspectives to be shared and helped position all participants as both learners and teachers. Future co-creation would benefit from more guidance for students and collaborating across departments.Diversity effects on sustainable group performance
This document summarizes a presentation on diversity effects on sustainable group performance. It defines types of diversity, discusses research showing both benefits and challenges of diversity for group performance, and outlines some practical implications. The presentation addresses how diversity can improve decision-making and problem-solving but also potentially lead to issues like groupthink or polarization among subgroups. It notes the complex trade-offs involved and difficulties translating contradictory diversity research into clear practical advice.

This study evaluated the effects of intercropping aromatic plants like rosemary and basil with olive trees in Minas Gerais, Brazil. The aromatic plants grew well but had no significant effect on olive tree productivity, including number of inflorescences, fruits, and average fruit weight. The neutral effect may be because not enough time elapsed for the aromatic plants to produce chemical compounds, their density was too low, or olive production was low that year due to climate variability. Intercropping could still be a viable practice and deserves further testing under normal weather conditions and with higher aromatic plant density to better understand potential effects.

This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
