This document outlines a webquest activity for students to research waste management and recycling. Students will conduct an experiment to track the amount of waste they produce individually over a week. They will then compare their results to national waste averages and estimates for their state. Using their research and experiment findings, students will create a presentation made entirely from recycled materials about how to help a fictional town called Trashville reduce waste and improve recycling habits.
This document provides an overview of garbage collection, including:
- The first language to use garbage collection was LISP in 1959.
- Garbage collection automatically manages memory allocation and deallocation.
- Key garbage collection methods are reference counting and tracing.
- Implementations include mark-and-sweep and copying collection.
- Modern garbage collectors use generational collection to more efficiently handle short-lived and long-lived objects.

Pollution is a social problem which needs to be more globally addressed. When we don’t recycle and allow more garbage into landfills, we are slowly killing the environment and added more harmful gasses into the atmosphere. Recycling is a simple act which can make a big difference in the future. It doesn’t take much to place recyclable objects into the proper blue bins instead of garbage cans. As humans, we need to take the initiative to help preserve the environment for our lives and future generations to come.
This document is a summary of a webquest assignment for high school biology students about recycling. The task is for students to take on management roles in educating the fictional town of Wasteville about reducing waste and setting up recycling programs over one week. Students are divided into teams and each takes on a role like organizing a town meeting, delivering recycling bins to homes, or planning a community cleanup day. The document provides details of the tasks and responsibilities for each role.
The document introduces a WebQuest activity for high school students on the topic of environmental stewardship. Students are tasked with developing ideas for a business focused on environmental sustainability to pitch to investors. They are instructed to research examples of leaders in environmental stewardship, evaluate different forms of energy production and their impacts, and illustrate their knowledge of key issues through a presentation. The conclusion congratulates students on a successful proposal and encourages them to continue learning about environmental stewardship.
The document provides instructions for students to create a poster and presentation to convince their classmates to participate more in the school's Planet Protectors recycling program. It outlines roles for students to research different aspects of recycling and environmental protection. The goal is for students to learn about reducing waste and to promote more recycling both at school and at home.
This document discusses reducing, reusing, and recycling waste. It provides background information on waste disposal and recycling, including statistics on plastic bottle and paper waste.

Energy savings, efficient use, and alternative technologiesLittle Daisy
This document summarizes Module 4 of an educational toolkit on rising up against climate change. The module discusses estimating a school's energy use, diagnosing energy consumption through surveys and appliance inventories, decreasing energy use by changing habits related to lighting, heating/cooling, electrical appliances, gas, and transportation. It also covers using alternative energy technologies. The overall aim is to motivate schools to reduce their carbon footprint and environmental impact through more efficient energy use.
The document is a capsule proposal for a research project on the benefits of waste segregation to the environment. The project will be conducted at St. Dominic College of Asia in Bacoor City from July 18, 2013 to September 20, 2013. The objectives are to explore waste management strategies through conducting surveys and interviews at the college, promoting reuse and biological recovery of waste, and educating students on proper waste segregation. The methodology will involve stratified random sampling and distributing a survey to collect data from respondents. The significance is that the study will help provide information to minimize environmental damage from waste and reduce flooding caused by garbage in drainage systems.

Lecture slide titled Fraud Risk Mitigation, Webinar Lecture Delivered at the Society for West African Internal Audit Practitioners (SWAIAP) on Wednesday, November 8, 2023.
OJP data from firms like Vicinity Jobs have emerged as a complement to traditional sources of labour demand data, such as the Job Vacancy and Wages Survey (JVWS). Ibrahim Abuallail, PhD Candidate, University of Ottawa, presented research relating to bias in OJPs and a proposed approach to effectively adjust OJP data to complement existing official data (such as from the JVWS) and improve the measurement of labour demand.
Falcon stands out as a top-tier P2P Invoice Discounting platform in India, bridging esteemed blue-chip companies and eager investors. Our goal is to transform the investment landscape in India by establishing a comprehensive destination for borrowers and investors with diverse profiles and needs, all while minimizing risk. What sets Falcon apart is the elimination of intermediaries such as commercial banks and depository institutions, allowing investors to enjoy higher yields.
Vicinity Jobs’ data includes more than three million 2023 OJPs and thousands of skills. Most skills appear in less than 0.02% of job postings, so most postings rely on a small subset of commonly used terms, like teamwork.
Laura Adkins-Hackett, Economist, LMIC, and Sukriti Trehan, Data Scientist, LMIC, presented their research exploring trends in the skills listed in OJPs to develop a deeper understanding of in-demand skills. This research project uses pointwise mutual information and other methods to extract more information about common skills from the relationships between skills, occupations and regions.
