The document provides details on conducting VIA assessments, strength spotting interviews, and reflective exercises to elevate individual strengths and connect them to increased well-being and trust within communities.
This document discusses facilitating effective grief groups for kids and training volunteers. It covers:
- The importance of group work for grieving children and Tuckman's stages of group development.
- Tips for group facilitators like maintaining consistency, being flexible, ensuring confidentiality, and being prepared.
- The complex roles volunteers play as group leaders, co-leaders, and members of the volunteer team.
- How to address challenging situations by making decisions based on the overall group.
- The presenters thank the audience and offer their contact information.
This document discusses using Appreciative Inquiry (AI) to identify and cultivate character strengths. It outlines the objectives, assumptions, and RAP model of AI. The RAP model involves Reflecting on strengths, Appreciating them through storytelling to an audience, and identifying ways to Practice strengths. Participants complete a character strengths survey, partner interviews to share strength origins and current expression, and introduce their partner's strengths to a small group. The goal is to foster connection, self-reflection, and applying strengths in new contexts.
This document discusses finding one's sense of purpose and greater meaning in life. It suggests that many people feel they are meant to do something bigger but get caught up in daily demands. The introduction describes a conversation where participants openly discussed their frustrations with not knowing their deeper purpose. The chapter then explores signs that one may be ready to seek purpose, and signs that a sense of greater purpose is breaking through into one's awareness. It asserts that we all have an encoded sense of purpose within us, and moments when it breaks through can profoundly impact our view of ourselves and life.
The document provides a list of questions about group work and roles, benefits of student engagement and interaction, skills for effective group work, and potential writing prompts about different animals. It discusses how having students work in groups allows them to pay attention, stay motivated, learn more, and better retain what they learn. When students interact more with peers and the curriculum, their learning increases. Effective group work requires skills like listening, turn-taking, helping others, problem-solving, teamwork, and compromise.
This document summarizes a class on Nonviolent Communication (NVC). The class used a giraffe puppet named Oscar to represent a "talking stick" and discussed NVC concepts like empathy, honesty, needs, and applying NVC to relationships and social change. Exercises included identifying needs, active listening without responding, and practicing empathy. Participants found listening without speaking and identifying others' needs as challenging but observed it can help meet needs for self-connection. The document outlines homework on practicing empathy with others and a gratitude journal.
This document describes an activity called "Fields of Feels" designed to help a team communicate effectively and express feelings when direct conversation is difficult. It involves two parts: 1) A "Leadership Compass" activity where team members identify their leadership styles and discuss how to work together. 2) An open discussion where each member answers personal feeling-related questions to build understanding and intimacy in the team. The goal is for team members to better understand each other and feel respected, in order to improve collaboration. Some add-ons are suggested to continue fostering open communication and appreciation within the team.

- York Law School (YLS) is part of the University of York in England and uses an innovative problem-based learning (PBL) approach to teaching law.
- PBL involves students working in groups to solve realistic legal problems designed by academics. This prepares students better for legal practice compared to traditional lecture-based methods.
- Studying at YLS gives students a commercial advantage because PBL, skills training modules, and an optional law clinic provide experience of working with clients, conducting legal research, and understanding law in social/commercial contexts.

This document discusses three key areas to consider when selecting a segmentation agency: 1) The methodology - ensure the agency uses a rigorous quantitative technique rather than qualitative focus groups. 2) Variable selection - the agency must understand your business objectives to select the right variables that will generate meaningful segments. 3) Communication of segments - the agency should distill results into an easily understood targeting strategy that defines priority customer segments as real people. Considering these three areas can help identify an agency with true segmentation expertise.
The Role of Novel Silver(I) Complexes as Potential ChemotherapeuticsJake Gill
This document summarizes a study that evaluated two novel silver(I) complexes, MD4 and MD5, as potential chemotherapeutic agents. The complexes were found to be cytotoxic to THP-1 monocyte cells, with MD5 showing the highest activity. Exposure of the cells to MD4 and MD5 resulted in double-strand DNA breaks similar to or exceeding levels caused by cisplatin. Additionally, the complexes upregulated pro-apoptotic and caspase genes, suggesting they induce apoptosis through DNA damage. While the drug mitoxantrone did not cause DNA breaks, it may induce apoptosis through mitochondrial pathways. Overall, the study demonstrates the potential of MD4 and MD5 as alternative chemotherapy drugs to cisplatin

Palkansaajien tutkimuslaitos (PT) ennustaa, että Suomen bruttokansantuote kasvaa tänä vuonna 3,6 prosenttia ja näin vain 0,2 prosenttiyksikköä vähemmän kuin edellisessä, 29.3.2011 julkaistussa ennusteessa. Kansainvälisen suhdanteen heikentymisestä huolimatta talous kasvaa vielä tämän vuoden lopulla jonkin verran. Kasvu perustuu tällöin vientiyritysten kasvaneeseen tilauskantaan sekä suhteellisen voimakkaaseen kotimaiseen kysyntään. PT ennustaa Suomen BKT:n kasvavan ensi vuonna 2,1 prosenttia, mikä on yhden prosenttiyksikön viime kevään ennustelukua pienempi. Ennuste nojautuu näkemykseen, jonka mukaan kasvanut epävarmuus supistaa yritysten investointeja kehittyneissä ja myös kehittyvissä maissa. Tämä vaikuttaa negatiivisesti erityisesti sellaisiin maihin kuin Saksa, Suomi, Ruotsi ja Itävalta, joiden viennissä investointitavaratuotannolla ja investointeja valmistelevilla palveluilla on suuri paino.
Rapidan and Robinson State of the Rivers 2015Michael Collins
This document summarizes the state of the Rapidan and Robinson Rivers based on a 2015 survey. It finds that forest cover around the rivers has declined, especially in lower river valleys where it is under 50%. The quality of the river beds, banks, and canopies varies along sections of each river, with some high quality and some low quality areas. Conditions have generally worsened since 2000. Recommendations include increasing forest and grassland coverage, developing river-friendly crop businesses, continuing river cleanups, and programs to eliminate endocrine disrupting compounds from the environment.

- The study examined knowledge and attitudes toward antibiotic use and resistance among school and institution personnel in Tbilisi, Georgia through a cross-sectional quantitative questionnaire.
- The results found that over 90% of respondents had used antibiotics before, and over half agreed antibiotics could treat viruses and the common cold. Many respondents had obtained antibiotics without medical consultation or prescription.
- Respondents demonstrated some misunderstanding about antibiotics' effectiveness against bacteria versus viruses. While trust in doctors was high, the study highlights misconceptions around appropriate antibiotic use and resistance in Georgia.
The document proposes establishing "Cyber Kitleys", which are rural cyber cafés combined with coffee shops, to provide internet access and technology training to villagers in Gujarat's Sabarkantha district. The cafés would be franchised to local self-help groups and youth and offer services like online access, computer courses, government portal registration for farmers, and job searching. The goal is to improve quality of life, empower rural youth, and promote inclusive growth through use of technology in rural areas.
Navigating Conflict in PE Using Strengths-Based ApproachesCHICommunications
Delivered on May 15, 2024 by the public and patient engagement team from the George & Fay Yee Centre for Healthcare Innovation, this presentation discusses the nuances of navigating conflict in patient engagement.
Learning objectives include:
-Understand the importance of using a trauma-informed approach in patient and public engagement
-Develop a strategy to work with patient and public partners in addressing conflict as it arises
-Employ strengths-based approaches to plan for conflict in your own work
In 3 sentences: Groups function best when members feel part of the group, trust each other, and share common values. Effective groups sort out aims, membership, leadership, decision-making, and address feelings and conflicts openly. High-performing groups achieve synergy where the whole is greater than the sum of individual contributions through trust, flexibility, and members expressing themselves genuinely.

Guide
Aker
reviewing
your
VIA
results
you
may
recognize
some
strengths
as
very
familiar
or
you
may
have
a
different
understanding
of
your
strengths.
You
know
yourself
best.
How
do
you
describe
your
signature
strengths?
Next,
pick
one
or
two
of
your
signature
strengths
and
think
about
the
origin
of
these
strengths
and
connect
them
with
your
early
experiences.
Some
strengths
feel
as
though
you
were
born
with
them,
they
are
just
part
of
who
you
are
and
have
always
been.
They
are
part
of
your
temperament.
Other
strengths
are
learned
through
experience,
some
are
even
learned
through
adversity
or
especially
challenging
circumstances.
• Please
tell
me
a
story
that
gives
me
a
pre1y
clear
picture
or
idea
about
where
your
strength
came
from.
• Who
no;ced
this
strength
and
endorsed
it
for
you?
• What
good
things
have
come
from
;mes
when
you
lived
into
this
strength?

Teams
• Tell
me
about
a
>me
when
you
experienced
being
a
part
of
a
group
like
this.
It
could
be
with
KIMO
or
another
group
that
you
have
been
part
of
as
a
member.
It
is
oken
a
family

Walking
The
Journey
Together
–
Dialogical
Prac;ce
Guideposts
• Suspend
assump>ons
and
keep
an
open
mind.
A
dialogue
is
a
shared
quest
for
meaning.
• Lik
every
voice.
Our
inten>on
is
to
lik
everyone’s
voice
higher.
Make
sure
every
voice
is
heard.
• Honor
our
differences.
We
can
honor
our
differences
without
trying
to
reconcile
them.
Wonder,
“Where
is
our
common
ground?”
How
do
we
walk
the
journey
together?
• We
create
meaning
together,
a
“memorandum
of
understanding”.
Without
others
meaning
breaks
down,
value
is
lost,
and
the
team
loses
its
vitality.
• Create
a
safe
place.
There
must
be
a
“safe
container”
created
for
the
conversa>on,
a
place
without
hos>lity
or
fear.
• Observe
and
listen
to
one
another.
This
collabora>ve
listening
posi>on,
is
focused
on
listening
for
understanding
as
opposed
to
listening
for
nego>a>on.
• Be
apprecia>ve,
aoen>ve
and
respecpul,
allow
space
for
the
other
without
interrup>ng
and
offer
posi>ve
rather
than
judging
comments
or
ques>ons.
