Leveraging Data to Show How Family Involvement Impacts College RetentionSarah Schupp
College parents can significantly impact college retention. The data reflects on parent priorities and satisfaction levels on the student experience, the types of communication efforts and parent programming institutions are implementing and a campus example of how working with parents from the prospective student stage through graduation can have a positive influence on student retention.
Afterschool programs provide learning opportunities for students after 3pm when the regular school day ends. Research shows that afterschool programs improve student achievement in math and attendance. Students who participate in well-structured afterschool programs for longer durations demonstrate greater improvements. Afterschool programs are also shown to develop students' team-building, leadership, and 21st century skills while keeping them safe and engaged in enriching activities outside of school hours. Leveraging existing school facilities, resources, and community partnerships can help expand access to afterschool programs at a relatively low cost compared to the regular school day.
In a recent survey conducted by StoriedU, college-bound high school students shared their feelings about their college admissions journey.

Recruitment 2016: Playing the Long Game with Your Lead PoolConverge Consulting
The enrollment game has shifted dramatically in the last few years in higher education. Lead flow is sluggish, conversion rates are soft, and overall enrollment is not on a strong upward trajectory anymore. Many colleges and universities are struggling to understand why they aren’t getting the same strong results they used to. The most common answer to that question is that the institution is not doing anything different than they have in the past.
Like it or not the enrollment game is getting far more complex and schools have to push themselves to critically analyze many aspects of their current recruitment practices. Participants will learn more about:
Evaluating the messaging of your communication flow
Expanding your touch-points after an initial lead is generated
Developing a long game with your lead pool
Reinvigorating your past leads
If you are interested in learning more about what it takes to effectively recruit in the 2016 adult and graduate market in higher education, recruitment expert Dr. Brenda Harms of Harms Consulting shares insights and best practices.

The top ways to increase engagement were cited as more targeted local, departmental, and era-specific events and academic content, along with improved communications. The University plans to evaluate programs and tailor offerings based on the survey results.

With the proliferation of crowdfunding sites and the recent success of campaigns on platforms like KickStarter and IndieGoGo, development programs in higher education are beginning to take notice.
Questions persist about how the platform translates to fundraising in higher education and if it has the potential to become a sustainable addition to the tool kit of annual giving programs.

Achieving a 90 percent Graduation Rate: A Path Back to High School for Boston...America's Promise Alliance
The GradNation campaign invites you to join a webinar on December 13th, 2018 from 3:00 – 4:15 p.m. ET that dives deeply into the Youth Re-engagement area.
Six percent of the class of 2016 did not graduate from high school and was not enrolled in a program to graduate. Though these young people have the potential to graduate, they have not completed school and lack a clear pathway to finish. Re-engagement centers have emerged as a successful way to locate youth aged 16 to 24 who have left the traditional school system and connect them to effective educational options and other services, so they can attain a high school diploma or GED.
In this webinar, we will hear from the National League of Cities on the re-engagement landscape and learn from The Boston Re-Engagement Center and their success in bringing young people back to earn their diplomas. We will define re-engagement and its importance, discuss barriers youth face in returning to education, and describe the strategies to re-engage students. We will also hear from young people served by the Boston Re-Engagement Center.
The document discusses the findings of two phases of research into educators' use of social networking. Phase I was a quantitative study that surveyed over 1,000 educators. It found that 61% were members of social networks, with younger educators and teachers more likely to join. Facebook was the most popular, while education-specific sites were growing. Educators saw value in using social networks for professional collaboration and communication. Phase II involved interviews with principals and found that some saw educational benefits for students but had policy and legal concerns about implementation. Overall the research showed openness to social networking among educators but also challenges to wider adoption in schools.

Why is the college discovery process so broken? Our solution (1st pitch)George K
Education is at the core of who we are. Our closest friends and our future career path by enlarge depend on where we go to college, right? If the stakes are so high why should the burden of search be on high school students? With so much white noise how can teenagers find out what school matches their potential? Today students are making arguably the most important decision in their life based on US New rankings and perceptions of friends and family, leading to stress for students today and wasted potential down the line.
There has to be a better way. We want to change the way high school students interact with universities by enabling colleges to reach out directly to students based on their achievements, interests, and preferences

The document provides an agenda for a workshop on social media that covers various topics including the evolution and state of social media, developing a statement of purpose, audience profiling, tools for social media, and case studies. It includes slides with information on key concepts like the modern media mix of owned, earned, and bought spaces, the importance of understanding audience psychographics and profiling, popular social media tools in Australia, and examples of successful Facebook campaigns. The workshop aims to help participants better understand social media and how to develop a strategic and audience-focused approach.
The document provides instructions on how to embed various web applications into a website built using the Sponsor-Ed content management system (CMS). It begins by explaining how to embed a translator application using HTML code. Specific steps include:
1. Copying the HTML code for the translator from the application's website.
2. Pasting the code into the CMS page using the HTML button.
3. The translator will then appear on the website page for users to interact with.
The document continues with similar instructions for embedding an interactive map application and concludes with tips on advanced newsletter creation.
1. The document provides an overview of social media strategies and best practices for writing content. It discusses focusing on the audience and their needs rather than just pushing out content.
2. Key aspects of a social media strategy are discussed such as setting goals, understanding the audience, managing the member lifecycle, and using different tools and channels appropriately. Case studies of successful social media campaigns demonstrate best practices.
3. Context is important for engagement. Factors like posting frequency, time of day, and adapting the message for different channels and audiences can impact how content is received. Developing a content plan is advised based on these strategic considerations.
The document discusses risk management strategies for schools creating a Facebook page. It identifies three main mechanisms for managing risk: policy, technology, and law. Policy approaches include establishing social media policies and codes of conduct. Technology approaches involve limiting user access and moderating content. Legal issues relate to relevant telecommunications and privacy laws. The document advises schools to develop response plans and consider potential "grey areas" when addressing negative user comments.
The document provides guidance on using Facebook for school communications. It recommends developing an overall communications strategy first and determining outcomes and content. Facebook should be part of the strategy, not the entire strategy. The document suggests determining content that will achieve communication goals and the best medium to deliver it, considering what needs archiving versus disposable content. It notes Facebook's strengths in building community, reminders, celebrations and polling. Schools should post 2-3 times per week with pictures for higher engagement than text-only posts. Content on Facebook should be "bite sized" and allow sharing.
A workshop hosted by the South African Journal of Science aimed at postgraduate students and early career researchers with little or no experience in writing and publishing journal articles.
LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
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

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.
