    Wednesday, February 20, 2008 Room 202 9:00-10:00 Building Community Resilience to Disasters Dr. Michael E. Garner, Emergency Management Department, Arkansas Tech Facilitator & Student Many of the learning outcomes that make the EAST program successful in local communities could be applied toward developing a more hazard resilient campus and community. Emergency management principles and methodology coupled with specialized ‘all-hazard risk’ software applications would provide a valuable resource for local schools, communities and county agencies. It is impossible to prevent natural disasters, but many communities affected by disasters could be spared or could reduce their losses if they are better prepared. Regardless of the size or scope of the initiative, building disaster- resistant communities saves lives and prevents damage. In the process, it saves money as well. Current statistics show that for every dollar spent on prevention, at least two dollars are saved on disaster repairs. FEMA ‘Although history … focuses largely on federal efforts, it is both accurate and appropriate to conceive emergency management as a local endeavor to influence events with local consequences. In many respects, the old adage that “disasters are a local problem” seems as true now as it was thirty years ago’ Ronald W. Perry - Professor of Public Affairs Arizona State University 10:10-11:10 Opportunities after High School UALR EAST Scholars, UALR Student This session will include a PowerPoint presentation, video interviews of past EAST Scholars, scholarship information and a question and answer session. Scholars will be available to answer questions, make comments and observations about the opportunities they have been given as EAST Scholars at UALR.

    3D Design Using Solid Edge How are things designed in this world? Have you wondered how someone can take a idea and make it into a 3D model? Solid Edge is a professional 3D design tool that you can create almost anything. This tool is mainly used in the manufacturing industry but can be used in any application. In this class we will be learning how to design 3D objects and putting them together. We will be working in a team environment to create projects. If you want to learn 3D engineering design, Solid Edge class is the one for you. Bring: Students should bring a flash drive or CD in order to take their project home. Instructor: Greg Hamano, Manager of Technical Services, Archway Systems Adobe InDesign – The Missing Link What does InDesign have that Photoshop and Illustrator donʼt? Powerful text formatting tools! InDesign is useful for combining text with images, from single-page documents such as flyers to multi-page publications and even books. This one-day course introduces the basics of page layout and typesetting with InDesign. Users will learn to create single or multi-page documents, importing text as well as photos and artwork. Users will also be introduced to InDesignʼs own drawing and special effects tools. Bring: USB drive to save projects. Instructor: Terri Parker West, Content Specialist, EAST Initiative Advanced Adobe Photoshop For those who are already familiar with Photoshop, here is your chance to take those skills a bit further. This class will focus on creating eye-catching designs using text, and creating and implementing graphics and photography.
