  • PLANTING the SEEDS of GREEN CONSUMERISM INSTRUCTIONAL PROGRAM Kathleen M. Jones Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirem
    PLANTING THE SEEDS OF GREEN CONSUMERISM INSTRUCTIONAL PROGRAM by Kathleen M. Jones submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN Stevens Point, Wisconsin August, 1996 August, 1996 APPROVED BY THE GRADUATE COMMITTEE OF: Gorky cReynolds, Ph.D. Professor of Environmental Education 'ABSTRACT Planting Seeds of Green Consumerism The purpose of the recycling instructional program that was implemented at the Arbor Vitae-Woodruff Elementary School during the 1995-1996 school year was to develop awareness and knowledge of recycling skills, attitudes of responsibility towards consumer practices, and skills for evaluating and reporting concerns of environmentally unfriendly consumer practices. The project involved students from grades first through fourth. Ninety three students participated in a series of learning experiences concerning recycling. Parents participated by completing extended lessons at home. The methodology used to assess the results of the learning experiences consisted of two descriptive surveys, one for the participating students and one for the participating parents. Students and parents were also required to complete the survey prior to the time the lessons began . These surveys were again completed in May. Data from both surveys was compiled at the end of the year. The rationale behind the construction and the implementation of the program, is that much of the solid waste problems we have in our country today could be eliminated by source reduction which is commonly called recycling. But in order for this to happen, consumers of today and tomorrow need to be educated about the problem and its possible solutions. The findings indicated there was a good growth amongst the third and fourth grade students, some growth amongst the first and second grade students, and little growth on the part of the parents of participating students.

Nelson Collection Identifier/Call Number: URB.SBN Extent: 77.88 linear feet Extent: 157.79 Gigabytes Date (inclusive): 1892-2003 Abstract: The Susan B. Nelson Collection documents the professional and personal life of Susan Louise Barr Nelson, an environmental and community planner, and social and political activist. Nelson played a fundamental role in the establishment of the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area, which became the largest urban national park in the United States. The collection also details Nelson's work with numerous groups and organizations to preserve open space and parklands for recreational use and includes materials pertaining to a number of social welfare issues with which she was involved. Additionally, the collection contains Nelson's personal writings and materials related to her family, home life, and education. Language of Material: English Biographical Information: Susan Louise Barr was born in Syracuse, New York on April 13, 1927 to Mr. and Mrs. Winston Barr. The family moved to California in 1930, first settling in a bungalow in Hollywood before moving to the Carthay District Center, which today is known as Carthay Circle, Los Angeles. With 1930's Los Angeles significantly less affected by urban sprawl, Susan spent her childhood playing in the area's parks and the Ballona-Playa del Rey Lagoon's marsh, which resulted in a life-long love of the outdoors and its natural resources.

  • A Robust Abstraction for First-Person Video Streaming: Techniques, Applications, and Experiments
    A Robust Abstraction for First-Person Video Streaming: Techniques, Applications, and Experiments Neil J. McCurdy1,2, William G. Griswold1,2, and Leslie A. Lenert2,3 1 Department of Computer Science and Engineering 2 California Institute for Telecommunications and Information Technology University of California, San Diego, La Jolla, CA 3 Veterans Affairs San Diego Healthcare Systems, San Diego, CA {nemccurd,wgg,llenert}@ucsd.edu Abstract. The emergence of personal mobile computing and ubiquitous wire- less networks enables powerful field applications of video streaming, such as vision-enabled command centers for hazardous materials response. However, ex- perience has repeatedly demonstrated both the fragility of the wireless networks and the insatiable demand for higher resolution and more video streams. In the wild, even the best streaming video mechanisms result in low-resolution, low- frame-rate video, in part because the motion of first-person mobile video (e.g., via a head-mounted camera) decimates temporal (inter-frame) compression. We introduce a visualization technique for displaying low-bit-rate first-person video that maintains the benefits of high resolution, while minimizing the problems typ- ically associated with low frame rates. This technique has the unexpected benefit of eliminating the “Blaire Witch Project” effect – the nausea-inducing jumpiness typical of first-person video. We explore the features and benefits of the technique through both a field study involving hazardous waste disposal and a lab study of side-by-side comparisons with alternate methods. The technique was praised as a possible command center tool, and some of the participants in the lab study pre- ferred our low-bitrate encoding technique to the full-frame, high resolution video that was used as a control.
