Scientific Information Integration & Discovery Service: Getting the most rele...Filipe MS Bento
The scientific community is undergoing one of the most dynamic and demanding times of its existence. Never in its history, the community was so extensive, never published as much as today, never the knowledge life cycle was so short. New data, new interpretations, new theories and new members emerge every day: the number of publications is immense and it is not always clear how to construct a search strategy that proves to be effective and efficient, so to obtain relevant and significant information.
It is in this context that a new service is being developed aiming to aggregate significant sets of resources and services that until now were dispersed, powering them with innovative features, some of them a mashup made of data obtained in real time from external services, but more than that, to promote the logic cooperation of users of such resources, whom can take advantage of comments from those have used then before, but also can add value and see the local indexed resources’ social network.
Thus, it advanced the term "Search 4.0" for this new paradigm of search, discovery, access, recommendation and sharing of resources, resulting from a natural social dynamic amongst the four key elements – user, resources, semantic mapping of metadata (several million records indexed locally) and user’s communities (their peers, users with common interests). In full interaction enhanced by the system, these four elements generate a dynamic social network, self-sustainable and with guarantee of future preservation, a social network not only of human actors as of resources themselves taking the role of actors.
This poster exposes some core concepts and solutions adopted for this innovative bibliographic information search system model, where not only the document is the point of reference, but to a new extent, the user himself and all his surroundings.

The document summarizes the strategic plan and focus areas of the Arlington Public Library from 2006-2010. The plan focused on six service areas and specific goals, objectives, and activities were developed for each area. General information and basic literacy were two of the focus areas. For general information, goals were to become a top community resource for a wide range of topics and build a collection covering community interests. Progress was made increasing library card registrations and database usage. For basic literacy, goals were to support childhood literacy and English language learners. The library saw increased borrowing of early literacy materials and use of homework centers and ESL programs.
This document provides an overview of an English lesson for students on sources of information. The lesson will discuss primary, secondary, and tertiary sources and how to identify each. Students will practice identifying source types through an activity. They will also learn about evaluating sources based on accuracy, completeness, timeliness, and other criteria. The lesson aims to help students effectively find and use information from different sources.
To encourage good information literacy, help learners:
1. Fully understand their tasks and topics by gathering background information from sources like the university library catalog, news sources, and online databases.
2. Identify appropriate resources for their tasks, such as scholarly resources from the library, respected websites, and subject-specific search tools.
3. Develop effective search skills to locate relevant information using techniques like keywords, abstracts, and advanced searching, while recognizing the limitations of some sources.

Scenarios for Workshop June 2012 Transliteracy and Student InquiryB. Hamilton
A lower elementary teacher brings his class to the school library to research animals for a class project. The teacher's graphic organizer asks students to find and record an animal's appearance, habitat, diet, babies, and enemies. Students will use this research to create a slideshow presentation with facts about the animal. The teacher won an award for this project years ago but the librarian wants to suggest ways to encourage deeper thinking and inquiry in the students.
Post “Big Think” Discussion Reflections/Follow-Up Questions May 2012B. Hamilton
This document contains questions for students to reflect on their experiences in a 10th grade World Literature/Composition class that emphasized participatory and inquiry-driven learning. Students are asked to reflect on how their reading interests have changed, suggestions for incorporating real-world issues into other courses, advice for future students, ways to improve the transition to a more independent learning model, topics and world regions they'd like to explore, and essential learning tools and mediums. They are also asked if they would be interested in other classes with similar collaborative and choice-based approaches.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
