Career guidance refers to services and activities intended to assist individuals of any age to make educational, training, and occupational choices and manage their careers. These services are usually found in schools, universities, colleges, training institutions, public employment services, and private sectors, and can include individual inventory, testing, counseling, placement, follow-up, and group guidance. The document argues that a lack of career guidance can negatively impact student performance, and that career guidance should be introduced in primary schools to help students plan their paths.
The document compares the old and revised formats of Schedule VI of the Companies Act, 1956 regarding the balance sheet and statement of profit and loss. Some key changes highlighted include:
- The revised format only allows for a vertical presentation compared to both vertical and horizontal previously
- Headings were changed from "Sources of Funds" and "Application of Funds" to "Equity & Liabilities" and "Assets"
- Additional line items were added under shareholders' funds, non-current liabilities, current liabilities, non-current assets, and current assets.
- Definitions and disclosure requirements for items like share capital, reserves and surplus, borrowings, and receivables were expanded in the revised format
A workshop exploring what new technologies such as Wii, Microsoft Natal and sensor based electronic solutions mean for designers. What are our new materials, what do we need to learn and/or change in the way we work today?
The workshop took place at the conference From Business To Buttons 2009, and was held by darja isaksson. (www.businesstobuttons.com)
Presentation given at Företagsuniversitetet October 2012.
Mobile internet usage is growing fast, already surpassing stationary internet usage in India as well as Facebook-land. 2013 will be a critical year to adapt to this world wide trend.
The presentation gives a few concrete tips on what to do, and rounds up with a conclusion on what this is all about; the need for many to reinvent their customer experience, and therefore the value that they deliver.
Our world is changing and it can be difficult to process it all. A stimulating library can help make sense of these changes and inspire library users to participate in this era of continuous change. Libraries are enhancing people’s lives through emerging technologies and library programming. Learn how libraries are constructing an environment conducive to information discovery, sharing, and lifelong learning and glimpse the future of what libraries can become.
Challenges of Interaction Design for
Clothes Fitting Room Technologies.
This paper uncovers issues in the design of camera-based technologies
to support retail shopping in a physical store, specifically clothes shopping.
An emerging class of technology is targeting the enhancement of retail shopping,
including the trying on of clothing. Designing such systems requires careful
considerations of physical and electronic design, as well as concerns about
user privacy. We explore the entire design cycle using a technology concept
called the Responsive Mirror through its conception, prototyping and evaluation.
The Responsive Mirror is an implicitly controlled video technology for
clothes fitting rooms that allows a shopper to directly compare a currently worn
garment with images from the previously worn garment. The orientation of images
from past trials is matched to the shopper’s pose as he moves. To explore
the tension between privacy and publicity, the system also allows comparison to
clothes that other people in the shoppers’ social network are wearing. A user
study elicited a number of design tradeoffs regarding privacy, adoption, benefits
to shoppers and merchants and user behaviors in fitting rooms.
The Power of Visual Notetaking :: SF Design Week, General Assembly [Tue Jun 1...Kate Rutter
Visual note-taking is a powerful tool for design professionals who want to capture ideas and communicate them effectively. Known as sketchnoting or graphic recording, this practical technique enables you to capture key points of an idea, recall content and take action on new learnings. Whether used as a personal tool or as a facilitation method for group collaboration, visual notes are a powerful way to create memorable, engaging info summaries.
In this hands-on workshop, participants developed a visual vocabulary of images of things and concepts, learned simple lettering techniques, and got familiar with structuring information into common layout patterns. Then they brought it all together by capturing visual notes in real time from video, and got feedback and inspiration in a group critique.
If you're new to visual notetaking, this is a fun and fast way to get started. If you're a seasoned sketcher or visual note-taker, you can review this deck to advance your practice.

Comparison of women in the past and presentSassy Nasa
Women's roles have significantly changed from the past to the present. In the past, women were subservient to men and had few rights. They could not own property, make major family decisions, get an education, work outside the home, or inherit wealth. In the present, women have gained greater independence, opportunities, and legal rights. They can now get an education, work in various fields, voice their opinions, and divorce. However, full equality has yet to be achieved as traditional gender roles still influence society. The document suggests women may continue improving their roles and one day rule nations instead of just supporting men.

These websites help film studios reach a wider audience by enabling social sharing. Trailers are also available on iTunes, where additional movie details and reviews can be viewed. Newspapers and publications further feature trailers to promote upcoming films.
The document discusses different perspectives on how the media portrays crime and moral panic. It explains that some believe the media sensationalizes crime to control public behavior, while others argue it presents different viewpoints. The document also notes that sociologist Stanley Cohen found increased media coverage can intensify social problems by raising policing. Marxism views see the media and bourgeoisie working together to create moral panics to maintain control over society. Functionalists argue the media presents diverse opinions while also reinforcing social norms.
In constructing their horror film opening, the group relied heavily on digital technologies and the internet for research and production. They used online databases like IMDb and YouTube to research similar films and analyze openings for inspiration. The internet also allowed them to access film analysis sites, write blogs, and present work. For editing, they used Final Cut Pro to make multiple edits and add effects. Live Type was used for titles and credits, while Garage Band created background music which was further adapted with a portable recorder.
The book prop contains pages with articles about the character Abigail, ripped images of Victorian families and religious symbols as well as depictions of sacrifice and rituals, burnt notes, and bloody handwriting.

The document discusses health and safety considerations for filming scenes for a movie. It notes that the actor playing Annabel had to walk slowly up stairs while wearing a long black cloak costume to avoid falling. Locations were chosen that allowed filming during the day for safety and better footage quality. When filming in public places like streets or cafes, the crew took care not to disrupt the public or shout to maintain safety and permission to continue filming. Permission was also obtained from a homeowner friend to film at their house at a convenient time.
This document outlines the scenes and credits for a film. It describes 13 scenes that follow the main character Annabell as she finds and looks through an mysterious book in the bedroom of a house. Each scene provides details on the camera shots, location, sounds, and credits for things like actors, music, editing, and directing. The scenes build tension as Annabell discovers disturbing contents in the book like warnings, dead flowers, pictures, maps, and bloody writing.
The document describes a series of scenes from a film involving a book. In the past, Abigail places a dead flower and warning note inside the book before hiding it. In the present day, Annabel finds the book and opens it, discovering the dead flower and note. She then flicks through pages containing horrific pictures, articles, maps, and family photos. When Annabel closes the book, blood is seen dripping, and the credits roll with tense music and screaming.
