The design aims to influence medical students to apply sunscreen daily by placing a sunscreen pump next to an existing hand sanitizer pump in their classroom. Students would be reminded via whiteboard messages and encouraged to develop the habit by associating it with their existing habit of hand sanitizing. Their sunscreen application would be tracked via daily email surveys linked to a Google spreadsheet displaying live results on a Facebook group.
I>Clickers are audience response systems that allow students to anonymously vote on questions using wireless clickers. The teacher can then instantly display voting results to provide feedback. Using clickers engages students and helps teachers assess understanding. Key benefits include interactive participation, anonymity, and immediate feedback. Four University of Illinois physicists invented I>Clickers and later sold them to Macmillan.

Brian Cambourne outlines several conditions that are necessary for learning to occur: learners must be immersed in examples of what they are trying to learn; they need to see multiple demonstrations; they must feel empowered and supported to take risks in approximating their learning; and they need opportunities to practice and use their skills. For learning to be successful, learners also need to feel engaged and responsible for their own learning process without fear of negative consequences for mistakes. Engagement is likened to properly engaging a car's clutch - without it, demonstrations and opportunities will not effectively lead to learning.
Differences in cultures and climate conditions affect the level of the respondents’ concerns on UV rays. More than 70% of Vietnamese concerned about the skin cancer. While 62.2% of Thais are most worried about freckles. Lastly, among Indonesians, sunburn protection is a priority for more than half of the respondents (59.4%).
This document discusses a project called SunCast that uses technology to motivate people to apply sunscreen daily. It provides local weather information and reminders on a website to help create the sunscreen application habit. The document also discusses results from the project and recommendations for future changes.
Nanotechnology in sunscreen uv protectionPooja Shukla
This document discusses the use of nanoparticles in sunscreen for UV protection. It begins by explaining that nanoparticles are much smaller than the width of a human hair and invisible to the eye. It then discusses how nanoparticles can make products lighter, stronger, faster, and more durable through nanotechnology. The document outlines the different types of sunlight including UV, visible, and infrared radiation. It explains how UV radiation causes skin damage and how sunscreens containing zinc oxide or titanium dioxide nanoparticles can provide protection. Smaller nanoparticles are transparent but less protective against UVA rays, while larger particles are more protective against UVA but less transparent. The document concludes by emphasizing the importance of sunscreen in preventing skin damage and cancer.

Daily Sunscreen Application; A conceptual design by Brian Pesinbpesin
This document proposes a design to encourage daily sunscreen use among college students. It involves sending daily email reminders with weather/UV index information and a link to an interactive Google form to track sunscreen application. Students could see their own progress and their friends' progress. The goal is to make sunscreen application a daily habit through accountability and positive reinforcement. Potential expansions include text reminders, social media tracking, and providing product recommendations.
Daily Sunscreen Application, A conceptual design by Brian Pesinbpesin
1. The document proposes a design to encourage college students to apply facial sunscreen daily through automated email reminders.
2. The emails would remind students to apply sunscreen, provide the weather report and UV index, and include a link to a Google form to track sunscreen use.
3. The goal is to make applying sunscreen a habit by providing reminders and opportunities to track progress.
1) The document proposes a text messaging application called Younger Looking Hands to motivate female college students to apply sunscreen to their hands daily.
2) The app would send daily text reminders to apply sunscreen and track user responses to adjust reminder frequency.
3) If the user consistently applies sunscreen after reminders, the reminder frequency decreases, and vice versa to minimize intrusiveness while maintaining the habit.
The document summarizes a study on creating a habit of daily sunscreen application through text message reminders. Users received daily reminders at first, then every two days as they consistently applied sunscreen. Overall, users applied sunscreen 71% of the time with reminders. However, without daily reminders at the end of the study, it was unclear if the habit would stick long-term. A longer study is needed to determine the effectiveness of non-daily reminders for habit formation.

The goal is to encourage healthy sun protection habits for active students spending time outdoors. A conceptual design and prototype are presented, along with next steps to expand the messaging and testing.
The document describes a conceptual design for a Facebook application called the Sunscreen Challenge aimed at encouraging college students to apply sunscreen daily. The design proposes placing sunscreen kiosks near dorm exits and developing a Facebook app to allow students to log their sunscreen use, see rankings of top users, and invite friends to participate. An initial test would recruit 5 students to track closely and install the app while inviting others to use sunscreen and learn about the app.
The document proposes a "Sunscreen Challenge" design to encourage daily sunscreen application. It would distribute sunscreen bottles with reminder notes for bathrooms. Participants confirm daily application through email or social media. Feedback on others' progress may motivate continued use after the challenge ends by associating the habit with existing morning routines. Testing found reminders and keeping extra sunscreen effective, but users disliked public progress reports. Improvements could use alternative notification methods.
The document proposes a mobile application to remind users to apply sunscreen before outdoor activities. It would send text messages to users in the morning and during class breaks. If users confirm they applied sunscreen, their responses would be tracked. The goal is to encourage sunscreen use in active business students through personalized, response-prompting reminders. Pocket-sized sunscreen would be distributed to facilitate on-the-go application. Future enhancements could include additional health habits and more motivating facts about sun protection.

If users confirm they applied sunscreen, their responses would be tracked. The goal is to encourage sunscreen use among university students who play outdoor sports. Pocket-sized sunscreen would be provided to make responding to reminders easier. Future enhancements could include messages with health facts to increase motivation. User testing is planned to evaluate the design.
SunCast is a web-based application designed to motivate daily sunscreen use. It targets university swimmers by having them track their sunscreen usage and compete with teammates. Users sign up with their email and name, are given sunscreen to place by their morning routine, and set SunCast as their homepage for a week. Each day, users report if they applied sunscreen, and can see a chart of their and friends' usage. The design draws on habit formation concepts like sequence and social motivation. It will be tested with university swimmers and improved based on feedback.
This document proposes a concept to motivate sorority women to apply sunscreen daily using mobile check-in and social pressure. The concept uses text reminders at wake-up time and a mobile app to check-in and share sunscreen application. A study will provide free sunscreen products combined with other products to make application convenient without extra steps. The goal is to form a healthy daily habit of sunscreen use in six women over two weeks by leveraging reminders, convenience, and social motivation.
This document summarizes a study on designing an intervention to encourage college students to apply sunscreen daily. The intervention involved sending daily email reminders with weather and UV index information, and a Google form to track sunscreen use. Over 6 students, the average number of days applying sunscreen was 7.1 days, with 1.3 days on average missed. The emails and forms were effective, with an 81% daily success rate on average. Areas for improvement include more automated reminders and tracking to create stronger habits.
The document proposes a design challenge to promote daily sunscreen use among college students. The design involves placing sunscreen kiosks near dorm exits along with a Facebook page for a "Sunscreen Challenge." Students could log their sunscreen use on the page and invite friends. An initial test would recruit 5 students to track sunscreen use and gauge interest from others on their dorm floor.
1) The document proposes a campaign to encourage senior women in the Delta Delta Delta sorority to develop the healthy habit of applying sunscreen in the mornings.
2) The campaign would involve placing a sunscreen dispenser with an informational note in the sorority bathroom for one week to trigger the behavior when the women perform their morning routines.
3) It would also involve sending a text message in the mornings to remind and encourage the women to apply sunscreen that day.
Habit formation, behavior change and persuasive technologyShubha Lakshmi Bhat
The document discusses using behavior change theories and persuasive technologies to help patients adhere to strict calorie-restricted diets. It introduces the Fogg Behavior Model, which states that motivation, ability, and triggers must align for behaviors to change. The document focuses on helping diabetics get into the habit of following a 1400-1800 calorie per day diet plan through understanding food choices and using tools like restaurant calorie listings and search apps as triggers and reinforcements. Feedback is sought on how habit formation theories could help meet goals.
The document summarizes a study on what influences people to eat more vegetables. Six undergraduate students from Stanford participated in a veggie challenge experiment where they tracked their vegetable consumption in two scenarios: when aware of friends' actions, and when aware of friends' opinions. The students reported eating the same amount of vegetables when aware only of friends' actions. However, they reported eating more vegetables when aware of friends' opinions. So the study suggests that social influence comes more from concern over others' opinions rather than just copying their actions.

The design seeks to create cues and social accountability to establish healthier habits among friends.
This document provides steps to help patients adhere to a research diet as part of a clinical trial. The steps include only eating at restaurants that publish calorie counts, deciding criteria for acceptable restaurants, searching for options that meet the criteria, finding out which restaurants provide calorie information, presenting options to friends, and choosing a restaurant. Following these steps can help patients make informed choices to stay on their research diet.
This document outlines steps to help patients adhere to a research diet as part of a clinical trial. It recommends only eating at restaurants that publish calorie counts to stay on target. The steps include deciding criteria for restaurants, searching for options that meet the criteria using word of mouth, Google or Yelp, finding out if any have calorie counts listed, presenting options to friends, and deciding on a restaurant. Taking the additional step of asking if a restaurant provides calorie counts makes it more likely one can make informed choices to stick to the study diet.
The document discusses 5 tools for using Google apps to help adhere to health habits and diets as part of clinical trials: 1) Google Calendar pop-up reminders, 2) placing macronutrient report cards on G-Chat status, 3) inviting friends to a party on Gmail to celebrate goals, 4) bookmarking report cards on Google Chrome, and 5) posting meal pictures on Picasaweb for accountability. It encourages contacting the author to learn more about using Google apps to stick to strict diets.
The document proposes an app called Top (i-phone) Chef, which would be an interactive cooking competition played on iPhones. Users would form teams, be given cooking challenges to make healthy and inexpensive meals within a time limit, and submit their virtual recipes to an algorithm that determines the winning team.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.

5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

Mercurius is named after the roman god mercurius, the god of trade and science. The planet mercurius is named after the same god. Mercurius is sometimes called hydrargyrum, means ‘watery silver’. Its shine and colour are very similar to silver, but mercury is a fluid at room temperatures. The name quick silver is a translation of hydrargyrum, where the word quick describes its tendency to scatter away in all directions.
The droplets have a tendency to conglomerate to one big mass, but on being shaken they fall apart into countless little droplets again. It is used to ignite explosives, like mercury fulminate, the explosive character is one of its general themes.
