Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Building Assets Reducing Risks (BARR) Model BARR is a comprehensive model that addresses the challenges that are part of the 9th grade transition year. BARR employs eight different school-wide and individual strategies that are built on positive relationships and ongoing monitoring of student data. In 2010, BARR received an Investing in Innovation (i3) Development grant from the US Department of Education to replicate BARR and conduct a randomized controlled trial to test its effectiveness. This report details the final results of the i3 Development grant. A large suburban high school in southern California participated in a within-school Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) of the BARR Model. A total of 555 9th grade students were randomly assigned to BARR and non-BARR conditions. At the end of the RCT year, BARR students had earned significantly more core course credits, higher grade point averages, and had a lower course failure rate than non-BARR students. BARR students also earned significantly higher standardized test scores on the Northwest Education Association's (NWEA) Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) scores in mathematics and reading than did non-BARR students after one year of implementation; specifically an average of two years of growth in mathematics, compared to one year of decline in the non-BARR condition. In the second and third years of the grant, BARR was implemented in the entire 9th grade, and the core course failure rate continued to decline. In addition, the achievement gap between Hispanic and non-Hispanic students closed by year two of implementation and remained closed in year three. Implementation fidelity of the BARR model was achieved in year one, and continued to improve over the second and third years of the study. BARR was also implemented in two smaller rural high schools in Maine. Decreases in core course failure rate, increases in grade point averages, and increases in standardized test scores in reading, language, and mathematics were achieved if the BARR model was implemented with fidelity. BARR teachers reported improved relationships with students, increased ability to perceive student strengths, use of data to improve student performance, better communication with administration, less isolation, and better problem solving of problematic student issues. Results were seen for both new and veteran teachers. The following are appended: (1) Attrition for credits earned, NWEA Reading, NWEA Mathematics; (2) Baseline Measurement--Group Data; (3) Mean number of core credits and NWEA scores by study group, gender and Hispanic origin; (4) Regression models predicting core credits earned, spring NWEA Mathematics scores, and spring NWEA Reading scores; (5) Reported findings--group data and estimates; (6) OLS Regressions for proficiency groups; (7) Core credits by gender and Hispanic origin over 3 years; (8) Fidelity ratings for key components of the BARR program; and (9) Teacher survey results.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The interconnectedness of communities, organisations, governing bodies, policy and individuals in the field of disaster studies has never been accurately examined or comprehensively modelled. This kind of study is vital for planning policy and emergency responses and assessing individual and community vulnerability, resilience and sustainability as well as mitigation and adaptation to climate change impacts; it therefore deserves attention. Disasters and Social Resilience fills this gap by introducing to the field of disaster studies a fresh methodology and a model for examining and measuring impacts and responses to disasters. Urie Bronfenbrenner’s bioecological systems theory, which is used to look at communities holistically, is outlined and illustrated through a series of chapters, guiding the reader from the theory's underpinnings through research illustrations and applications focused on each level of Bronfenbrenner’s ecosystems, culminating in an integration chapter. The final chapter provides policy recommendations for local and national government bodies and emergency providers to help individuals and communities prepare and withstand the effects of a range of disasters. This book will be of great interest to scholars and students of disaster and emergency management, disaster readiness and risk reduction (DRR), and to scholars and students of more general climate change and sustainability studies.

Download or read book Building a Comprehensive IT Security Program written by Jeremy Wittkop and published by Apress. This book was released on 2016-08-05 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains the ongoing war between private business and cyber criminals, state-sponsored attackers, terrorists, and hacktivist groups. Further, it explores the risks posed by trusted employees that put critical information at risk through malice, negligence, or simply making a mistake. It clarifies the historical context of the current situation as it relates to cybersecurity, the challenges facing private business, and the fundamental changes organizations can make to better protect themselves. The problems we face are difficult, but they are not hopeless. Cybercrime continues to grow at an astounding rate. With constant coverage of cyber-attacks in the media, there is no shortage of awareness of increasing threats. Budgets have increased and executives are implementing stronger defenses. Nonetheless, breaches continue to increase in frequency and scope. Building a Comprehensive IT Security Program shares why organizations continue to fail to secure their critical information assets and explains the internal and external adversaries facing organizations today. This book supplies the necessary knowledge and skills to protect organizations better in the future by implementing a comprehensive approach to security. Jeremy Wittkop’s security expertise and critical experience provides insights into topics such as: Who is attempting to steal information and why? What are critical information assets? How are effective programs built? How is stolen information capitalized? How do we shift the paradigm to better protect our organizations? How we can make the cyber world safer for everyone to do business?
