Deal-hunters: Are Groupon and other deal sites good for marketers?Jung Eun Kim
This is an academic presentation presented by Jamie Kim and her colleagues at Emerson College in Fall 2011. As a part of group project instructed by Dr. Cathy Waters in Marketing Management course, the topic was to analyze marketing benefits of deal-hunters such as Groupon and Living Social. In order to identify various features of daily deals, we analyzed four real business case stories from four different deal websites in U.S., Taiwan, and South Korea.
The document discusses two pioneering television series from the 1970s that centered around real families: An American Family from 1973, which is considered the first modern reality television series, and The Osbournes from 2002. Both shows became media phenomena by allowing viewers to observe the intimate details of these families' lives. The Osbournes in particular blended elements of a scripted sitcom like problem-resolution structure with the reality format by filming the family going about their daily lives at home without a script. This established the first reality sitcom genre that combined aspects of both reality television and scripted sitcoms.
Marketing Research for Metropolitan MarketJung Eun Kim
Metropolitan Market is a grocery store chain based in Seattle that has operated for 40 years. It is considering expanding to Boston but faces challenges from competition and an unfamiliar market. Research was conducted through focus groups and surveys to understand consumer preferences and attitudes. Respondents said location, prices, and product selection were most important. They viewed Metropolitan Market positively but as more expensive. Expansion recommendations include further market research, competitive pricing, branding, and community events.
Crocodiles are opportunistic predators that will eat whatever prey is most readily available or plentiful in their habitat. Their diet consists of fish, birds, mammals, reptiles, and sometimes other crocodiles. Young crocodiles primarily eat small fish, crabs and birds. Crocodiles swallow their food whole or tear it into chunks to eat. They are also scavengers and will eat already dead animals. Crocodiles have evolved bodies well-adapted for both aquatic and terrestrial living.
Integrated Marketing Communication Strategies for Big Sister Association of G...Jung Eun Kim
This document summarizes research conducted for a marketing campaign for the Big Sister Association of Greater Boston. Interviews and surveys were used to understand attitudes towards volunteering. Key findings included low brand awareness, confusion with similar organizations, and concerns about time commitments. Personas were developed for target segments: college students, young professionals, homemakers/retirees, and women of ethnicity. Recommendations focused on increasing flexibility, differentiating the brand, utilizing social media and partnerships with local groups to recruit volunteers from each segment.
The Ashanti People are an Akan group located primarily in central Ghana, numbering over 10 million. They speak Twi and practice Christianity, Islam, and traditional Ashanti beliefs. In the 17th century, the Ashanti clans united under Chief Osei Tutu to form the powerful Ashanti Kingdom, with allegiance sworn to the sacred Golden Stool. Representing the soul of the Ashanti people, the Golden Stool is the foremost symbol of Ashanti nationalism and unity. The Ashanti were historically skilled farmers and traders and had a sizable military of up to 200,000 people who allowed the kingdom to expand substantially over a century.
The document welcomes the reader to the Kingdom of Scots and introduces several of its members. It summarizes that the kingdom is unique because of the awesome, cool, and irreplaceable members. It also states that the members are uniquely qualified to contribute to an ESL CALI class because some are online tutors who can relate how to use computers in language teaching. The kingdom will continue the challenge of using technology to enhance language learning rather than replace teachers.
The document provides instructions for the Wilson Reading System Substep 1.3 which includes sound cards to teach letter sounds, tapping letters to blend them into words, word and sentence reading practice, and dictation exercises. It focuses on teaching short vowel sounds, digraphs, blending, spelling rules and building reading comprehension through varied activities.

The weekly report discusses the progress of the "Fuang" multidisciplinary workshop team. This week, they designed a temperature selector circuit with 3 buttons to choose between 100, 85, and 60 degrees. The engineering analysis found the circuit works effectively but is too large to fit inside a hot pot. Next week, the team will redesign the circuit to be smaller.
This block diagram shows a temperature control system with buttons, latches, comparators, and logic gates that control an LED based on the temperature reading from a sensor. Temperature readings from 60C, 85C, and 100C are compared and logic gates determine if the LED turns on or off.
The weekly report summarizes the progress of the "Fuang" multidisciplinary workshop group. It discusses using an LM35 temperature sensor to measure temperature in a kettle and convert the sensor's output voltage to temperature measurements between 60-85 and 100 degrees Celsius. The strong point of the sensor is that it works well and provides detailed measurements. However, the weak point is that it sometimes provides inaccurate temperature values. Next week, the group will further test the sensor to obtain correct temperature measurements.
The weekly report summarizes progress of the Habithai multidisciplinary workshop group. The engineering team members are working on ultraviolet LED design. Ultraviolet LEDs above 365 nm have higher efficiency around 20% and stronger power output than lower wavelengths. These LEDs are beginning to be used in UV curing applications. The strong point of UV LEDs is cleaning bacteria in water and food, while the weak point is they can burn human skin if receiving too much high energy. Next week, the engineering students will design circuits after the product design team chooses a project concept.

It includes the names of group members, a technical overview of how LEDs work by emitting light through electroluminescence when electrically biased, and an analysis of LEDs noting their low energy use but also the need to add resistances to limit current. The engineering analysis identifies energy efficiency as a strength and current limitations as a weakness, and plans to work on another part next week.
This weekly report summarizes the progress of the "Fuang" group's multi-disciplinary workshop project. The engineering team analyzed the internal circuit and mechanical components of a kettle to understand how it works and select appropriate sensors to measure the temperature and water level. They plan to program a microcontroller to control the kettle. The report notes the group's strength in applying new technologies and their weakness in not being able to fully view internal circuits. Next week, the group will examine other appliances.
This weekly report summarizes the progress of the "Fuang" engineering team. The team is designing a new toaster. The main work this week involved replacing the heater inside the toaster with nichrome wires wrapped around a mica panel for insulation. The frame supports two or more bread shelves and has a latch bolt that works with the frame to eject bread when it is lowered. Next week, the team will examine more electrical appliances to improve the toaster design.
This weekly report summarizes the progress of the "Fuang" engineering team. The team has 5 members who are designing an ultramodern product called the Konect USB. The Konect USB is a clock that has additional functions like playing MP3s, acting as a speakerphone for Skype calls, and adjusting audio volume. It can also connect to Bluetooth devices to stream music. The report notes the Konect USB's strong points in being on the cutting edge of technology while also addressing its weakness in not being able to view internal circuits or mechanics. Next week's tasks will focus on delivering technological knowledge and advancing what is possible through collaboration.
This weekly report discusses progress made by an engineering student group working on an automatic cooker project. The group discussed the industrial student's needs, including wanting an automatic cooker with a touch screen. The engineering team researched touch screen technology and processes. Their strengths include circuit analysis and wiring skills, while their weakness is microcontroller knowledge. Next week, they will design a circuit once the industrial students choose a single project to focus on.
The student attended the BOI Fair at Muang Thong Thani and saw several new technologies on display, including a fast robot arm that could pick up and drop objects, an automated packing machine controlled by a PLC, and an energy efficient refrigerator from Hitachi.
The document describes a temperature controller that uses a thermocouple temperature sensor and a heater to control temperature.
