M&A @ Facebook: Strategy, Themes and Drivers
A Work Project, presented as part of the requirements for the Award of a Master Degree in Finance from NOVA – School of Business and Economics M&A @ FACEBOOK: STRATEGY, THEMES AND DRIVERS TOMÁS BRANCO GONÇALVES STUDENT NUMBER 3200 A Project carried out on the Masters in Finance Program, under the supervision of: Professor Pedro Carvalho January 2018 Abstract Most deals are motivated by the recognition of a strategic threat or opportunity in the firm’s competitive arena. These deals seek to improve the firm’s competitive position or even obtain resources and new capabilities that are vital to future prosperity, and improve the firm’s agility. The purpose of this work project is to make an analysis on Facebook’s acquisitions’ strategy going through the key acquisitions in the company’s history. More than understanding the economics of its most relevant acquisitions, the main research is aimed at understanding the strategic view and key drivers behind them, and trying to set a pattern through hypotheses testing, always bearing in mind the following question: Why does Facebook acquire emerging companies instead of replicating their key success factors? Keywords Facebook; Acquisitions; Strategy; M&A Drivers “The biggest risk is not taking any risk... In a world that is changing really quickly, the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks.” Mark Zuckerberg, founder and CEO of Facebook 2 Literature Review M&A activity has had peaks throughout the course of history and different key industry-related drivers triggered that same activity (Sudarsanam, 2003). Historically, the appearance of the first mergers and acquisitions coincides with the existence of the first companies and, since then, in the US market, there have been five major waves of M&A activity (as summarized by T.J.A. -

Unfortunately, traditional methods do not efectively article detect drug-abuse risk behavior, given tweets. This is because: (1) tweets usually are noisy and sparse and (2) the availability of labeled data is limited. To address these challenging problems, we propose a deep self-taught learning system to detect and monitor drug-abuse risk behaviors in the Twitter sphere, by leveraging a large amount of unlabeled data. Our models automatically augment annotated data: (i) to improve the classifcation performance and (ii) to capture the evolving picture of drug abuse on online social media. Our extensive experiments have been conducted on three mil- lion drug-abuse-related tweets with geo-location information. Results show that our approach is highly efective in detecting drug-abuse risk behaviors. -

Disclaimer: Given the rapidly evolving nature of technology and social media apps, this information (especially social media platform related) is current as of the date of publication: February 2020. A Parent's Guide Page 1 Introduction With society heading in the direction of being constantly connected to technology, what do we need to know as parents to protect our children and teach them responsible and appropriate uses of technology? The parameters of rules and expectations that you put in place at home will undoubtedly guide their behaviour in the years to come. Given the fact that technology has entered our lives at such a rapid pace and continues to evolve, raising our children in a digital era can seem overwhelming at times. The reality is that apps and technological devices will change, but the behaviour stays the same. Moderation is key to managing technology use in our homes. It does not need to be an all or nothing approach, with either absolute prohibition or full unchecked usage. It is beneficial to maintain an open, transparent, and ongoing dialogue with our children regarding the internet, technology, social media, and video games. Remaining approachable could be the difference between whether they decide to come to us when issues or uncomfortable situations arise rather than feeling alone in the process or going to their peers instead. Technology is here to stay, whether we like it or not. -

Publics and Protest on the Tumblr Dashboard by Michael Turner BA
Structures of Participation and Contestation: Publics and Protest on the Tumblr Dashboard by Michael Turner B.A. in Anthropology, May 2013, American University A Thesis Submitted to The Faculty of The Columbian College of Arts and Sciences of The George Washington University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts January 31, 2016 Thesis directed by Roy Richard Grinker Professor of Anthropology, International Affairs, and Human Sciences Abstract Structures of Participation and Contestation: Publics and Protest on the Tumblr Dashboard This project investigates the way that larger power structures and highly specific site architectures affect voices of contestation through a situated ethnographic study of the #BlackLivesMatter movement on Tumblr. Rather than a comprehensive study, this project looks at how protesters may utilize high media and social network literacy to strategically make their voices heard by seemingly isolated and uninvolved users. Rather than ignorant to the structures around them, the specifics of these choices or e-tactics demonstrate a degree of awareness by protesters of larger cultural forces that may limit or constrain their ability to be heard. Through this lens, this thesis compares the role of Tumblr and other social sites as arenas for democratic dialogue and the insertion of previously marginalized peoples and narratives. The use of blogs by #BlackLivesMatter protesters and other counter-hegemonic movements as a realm for civic journalism and “counter media-errorism” is also analyzed. Ultimately, this project shows a clear need for further ethnographic study on the particulars of Internet and information and communication technology structures and how activists pursue social change within these structures. -

The user has requested enhancement of the downloaded file. 9 Using Technology to Enhance Clinical Supervision and Training Tony Rousmaniere The past two decades has witnessed an explosion in the number of technologies being used to deliver and enhance supervision and training,1 such as Web-based videocon- ference, the iPad, webcams, the Internet “cloud,” clinical virtual reality software, Web-based software for tracking clinical outcomes, and software to code psycho- therapy session videos. Around the world, supervisors have been rapidly moving their services online; clinical supervision and training is no longer restricted by geography. In June 2013, a Google search for “psychotherapy Skype supervision” resulted in over 300 listings for individual or group psychotherapy supervision by videoconfer- ence, provided by supervisors around the world, in a diverse range of modalities, including acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), addictions treatment, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical-behavioral therapy (DBT), emotion- focused therapy (EFT), eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), drama therapy, equine-assisted therapy, Gestalt, imago therapy, intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy (ISTDP), music therapy, psychoanalysis, sandplay therapy, and sensory motor therapy. -

DESCRIPTORS Cooperating Teachers; Educational Needs; Elementary Secondary Education; Higher Education; Practicum Supervision; *Preservice Teacher Education; *Regular and Special Education Relationship; Rural Education; *Special Education Teachers; *Student Teacher Supervisors; *Student Teachers; Student Teaching; *Supervisor Supervisee Relationship; Teacher Collaboration ABSTRACT Two faculty members from Indiana University Southeast collaborated with experienced special educators over a 2-year period to determine if supervision procedures based on general education classroom situations fit today's special education student-teaching experience. They found that the 21st-century special education classroom is often not a classroom but rather the point of deployment of services that follow students with special needs into their general education classrooms. Student teachers going from classroom to classroom must quickly acclimate themselves to different teachers, classroom environments, and subject matter. Within the first few days of student teaching, behavior intervention plans, crisis and safety intervention procedures, and relationships with other teachers and instructional assistants should be clarified. Student teachers are exposed to multiple teaching models within and across classrooms. The master teacher and student teacher should routinely discuss instructional strategies that the student teacher has observed and should clarify which are best practices. -
