Understinding Education 2.0
The document discusses the changing landscape of education with the rise of web 2.0 technologies. It notes that there is now a gap between academics and external relations due to changes in students and the web. Web 2.0 allows for greater reach of influencers and more opportunities for easy content creation and sharing, conversations, transparency, personalization and accessibility. Both students and parents/schools are looking for more course management, communication, collaborative projects and resources through new technologies like blogs, social networks and mobile learning. Education needs innovators to help institutions adapt to these changes in moving to a new, more social media-focused model of education.

Social Media Ecosystem | What, Why & How
Every organization must carefully develop the social media ecosystem around them. This presentation dives deep into this.
Social Media-What Why How Where & When (compilation)
Once again, I have come up with this topic of social media. But this time its more like a review. 4 W's are What, Why, When and Where, while the 1 H is How. From long time i was trying to come out with something as simple as possible version of understanding how can one understand social media and most importantly how it can be implemented for one's business.
The questions I have to answer here are:
1. What is Social Media ?
2. Why it is important ?
3. Where should you be present on social media?
4. When should you do social media marketing/promotions ?
5. How should you go about it?
These questions are the common FAQ among many people. So I thought why not to compile a good collection and present it with good graphics and infographics to make it more interesting read. So here it is ! Enjoy....
CDSI Game - Tools
These are the tool cards for the Social by Social game played in the Community-Driven Social Impact session at NCVS.
Social Media
Social media includes websites and apps that allow users to create and share content. Some popular social media sites that IFMA uses are Facebook for social networking, Twitter for microblogging and networking, LinkedIn for professional networking, Flickr for photo sharing, and YouTube and SlideShare for sharing videos and presentations. Statistics are provided on IFMA's growth on Facebook and Twitter from 2011 to 2012, showing increasing numbers of likes and followers. General usage statistics are also given for these social media platforms. The document concludes by providing some tips for maintaining a social media presence.
Families
Household structures and family dynamics in the UK have changed significantly over the past 50 years. Marriage and divorce rates rose in the 1970s but have since stabilized. More people are living alone or in single-parent households. As people live longer, they require greater social and informal caregiving support, which families and communities traditionally provide. Women disproportionately take on caregiving duties. These changing demographics and lifestyles will influence future health needs and support systems for older populations.

Visible voice
This document discusses various approaches to visual ethnography research including participatory research, public ethnography, and visual activism. It notes that visual representation is embedded in human societies and that visual methods can complement verbal and textual communication. Visual records also provide a rich source of data and can capture data not recordable in other forms. The document discusses how participatory research involves participants in analysis and dissemination. Public ethnography aims to make sociology more useful by focusing on topics relevant to the public. Visual activism uses visual construction, dissemination, and sustainability to facilitate personal change, encourage community debate, and support development.
How We Live:Social Determinants of Health and well being
The document discusses several theories related to health and well-being. It outlines planned behavior theory which proposes that attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control influence intentions and behaviors. It also describes Antonovsky's sense of coherence model, which posits that a person's sense that the world is comprehensible, manageable, and meaningful determines their health. Finally, it suggests schools can influence health by maximizing students' sense of future, self-worth, social integration, knowledge, skills, and capacity to learn through personal, social, and environmental factors.
Visible Voice: researching community health in Kyrgyzstan
Traditionally nomadic, many people in rural Kyrgyzstan remain dependent on herding and seasonal migrations to mountain pastures. The village of Tolok lies at 2,600m altitude in the Kochgor Valley near Lake Son Kul, home to about 800 people in a dry, cold, and windy climate where few crops can grow. Children play an important role in village life, collecting water, caring for animals and younger children. Each household requires 40 liters of water daily, which must be carried from pumps to homes. Mutual support is important in remote mountain communities, but increasing competition for pasture following privatization is challenging. Diets consist mainly of dairy, tea, and bread, with meat reserved for special

Economic migration
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for both physical and mental health. It notes that regular exercise can reduce the risk of diseases like heart disease and diabetes, improve mood, and reduce feelings of stress and anxiety. Exercise is also credited with boosting brain health and improving cognitive function as we age.
Presentation1
This document discusses ethical theories and their application in public health nursing. It outlines several normative ethical theories: consequentialism, deontology, principlism, and virtue ethics. Consequentialism focuses on achieving the greatest good for the greatest number. Deontology emphasizes duties and moral rules. Principlism proposes four principles: respect for autonomy, nonmaleficence, beneficence, and justice. Virtue ethics examines good/bad character traits. In public health, utilitarianism and the four principles are most dominant. The document also notes some major ethical tensions in public health around individual/community rights, weighing costs/benefits, and privacy versus utility.
Intro final cut
The document discusses the results of a study on the effects of exercise on memory and thinking abilities in older adults. The study found that regular exercise can help reduce the decline in thinking abilities that often occurs with age. Older adults who exercised regularly performed better on cognitive tests and brain scans showed they had greater activity in important areas for memory and learning compared to less active peers.

Globalisation and Health
The document discusses several key aspects of globalization and its impact on health. It defines economic globalization as the extension of markets across national boundaries through reduced trade barriers and increased competition. While economic globalization may increase trade opportunities, issues can arise when markets are poorly regulated, leading to financial crises and marginalization of poorer countries. Globalization influences health through its economic, social, and cultural effects. Specific health impacts mentioned include growth in the refugee population and increased availability of toxic goods like tobacco.
Migrant health experiences
The document discusses the health experiences and outcomes of migrants in the UK. It finds that some migrant groups have poorer health than people born in the UK, including higher rates of asthma, schizophrenia, and certain cancers. Factors that can influence migrant health include the migration process itself, socioeconomic conditions post-migration, and cultural adjustment challenges. The research aims to use participatory methods to better understand how migration impacts health and identify ways to empower migrants and improve support services.
Health care in the USA
The document compares various health metrics between the USA and other countries. It shows that the USA spends the highest percentage of its GDP on health care (15.4%) and has the highest per capita health expenditure ($6,096), but does not have the highest life expectancy and has worse child and adult mortality rates than other countries. The document suggests this discrepancy may be due to the libertarian individualist ideology and influence of conservative and religious groups in the USA.
A Picture Of Health
The document discusses several factors that influence population health status, including politics, economics, geography, lifestyle, culture, health care services, education, and demography. It also discusses differences in health issues between developing and developed nations, such as higher rates of communicable diseases and infant mortality in developing countries versus higher rates of chronic diseases in developed countries. Predictions for the 21st century include potential rises in infectious diseases and chronic illnesses due to longer lifespans and urbanization. Mortality rates in infancy and childhood are predicted to decline substantially, though most deaths will still occur in developing areas. Global population is expected to grow to 8 billion by 2025 with increases in life expectancy and numbers of elderly people.
Climate and Health
The document discusses how climate change is impacting health. Global temperatures increased 0.6°C in the 20th century with the 1990s being the hottest decade on record. Predictions for the UK include summers being 2-3.5°C hotter by 2080 along with milder, wetter winters and more extreme weather. Climate change can spread vector-borne diseases to new areas by altering environments and expanding habitats. Heavy rainfall in particular poses health risks like water contamination and outbreaks of diarrheal diseases.
Social Change
The document discusses how social change influences population health. It states that social change occurs over time in response to various environmental, political, and social factors. Demographic factors like population size, distribution, structure, fertility rates, mortality rates, and migration patterns are important to estimate current and future social needs. The document also examines differences between traditional and modern cultures, looking at things like relationships, knowledge, religion, and lifestyle. It discusses how values, customs, and traditions are shared within a community and influence things like why and how people live their lives. Finally, it introduces the concept of acculturation and the factors that influence a culture's resistance or receptiveness to changes, like duration of contact, intensity of contact, and cultural
Ethics and Consequences
The document discusses several ethical perspectives including act-centered theories focusing on duties and consequences, agent-centered virtue ethics examining character, and differences between the two. It also examines Kantian deontology emphasizing intention over outcomes, rule and act deontology, and intuitionism basing morality on self-evident principles.
Constructing Realities
The document discusses the social construction of reality and medical knowledge. It states that reality is dependent on social reasoning and practices. Medical knowledge constructs disease classifications based on social criteria, and medical theories reflect social theories. Perceptions of the body and disease change over time. Medicine has increasingly replaced other knowledge systems, including those relating to sex, relationships, and childbirth. The hierarchy of scientific research values randomized controlled studies highest, followed by cohort studies and case studies. Paradigms in science determine what is observed, what questions are asked, and how information is interpreted. Medical evidence has undergone a paradigm shift from individual expertise to evidence-based rules. Medical knowledge can reinforce social relations through certain disease categories. Developing countries struggle to count mortality

Values based Decision Making
The document discusses ethics and values, specifically act-centered ethics versus agent-centered ethics. It provides examples of different approaches within act-centered ethics, including deontology (duty ethics) and teleology (ethics of consequences). Deontology focuses on duties and obligations, and can be act-based or rule-based. Teleology assesses the potential outcomes of actions and aims for the most good. The document also introduces the Values Exchange, an online tool for collaborative, values-based decision making through exploring issues, principles, and comparing viewpoints.
Perceptions Of Health
This document discusses several theories related to health behavior and perceptions of health, including:
1) The Health Belief Model, which proposes that health-related actions are influenced by perceptions of susceptibility, severity, benefits, costs and cues to action.
2) Protection Motivation Theory, which suggests that protective health behaviors stem from threat and coping appraisals related to susceptibility, severity, self-efficacy and response-efficacy.
3) The Theory of Planned Behavior, in which intentions and behaviors are influenced by attitudes, subjective norms and perceived behavioral control.
Migration And Demography
The document discusses several topics related to migration and demography, including:
1) Different theories that seek to explain the causes and decision-making around migration such as neoclassical economic theory, new economics of migration, dual labor market theory, and world systems theory.
2) The European response to migration, which promotes free movement of EU nationals but more restrictive policies for non-EU citizens.
3) Key concepts in demography like size, distribution, and structure of populations, as well as factors like fertility, mortality, and migration that influence demographic change over time.
4) Concerns around population aging referred to as "the demographic time bomb," with trends showing increased life expectancy and

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
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.
