  Careers...
  Produced by Nancy Christy Heinen for Pathways to Independence. Becky recalls her guidance counselor advising her to look into secretarial jobs, "So I could sit behind a desk all day," assuming that was all she was capable of. David recounts how he bristled when people told him to be "reasonable" in his expectation s for the future. Melvin remembers sitting in a chicago hospital with other kids who were victims of gang violence, realizing that if he wanted to be taken seriously, he'd have to earn it-- but how? Low expectations throw up barriers for a woman with muscular dystrophy, a man with cerebral palsy, a black man with paraplegia. Studies show that students with disabilities are filtered from exposure to opportunities for higher education and vocational training. And yet, these and two other individuals featured in "Careers" demonstrate how higher education is the key for an individual with a disability to break through the barricades that traditionally block disabled professionals from entering the career world. The video illustrates that a wheelchair-- or any other disability-- does not prevent a person from pursuing higher education and a future more rewarding than simply performing a job. We hope it will inspire, and educate, those with crucial influence on young people with disabilities, and that it will spark the imaginations and aspirations of students to the real world possibilities that can-- and should-- open the door to finding a path to a career.

  Risk: The Neural Basis of Decision...
  Lecture presented by Professor John O'Doherty for the Darwin College Lecture Series 2010. A deeper understanding of how the brain makes decisions will not only inspire new theories of decision making, it will also contribute to the development of genuine artificial intelligence, and it will enable us to understand why some humans are better than others at making decisions, why humans with certain psychiatric and neurological disorders are less capable of doing so, and why under some circumstances humans systematically fail to make rational decisions. Most decisions made in everyday life are taken for the purposes of increasing our well-being, whether it is deciding what item to choose off a restaurant menu, or deliberating over what career path to follow. Prominent amongst these is the value or utility of each decision option, which indicates how advantageous a particular option is likely to be for our future well-being. Another relevant signal present in the brain is the riskiness attached to a particular decision option, which can influence the decision making mechanism according to ones own individual preferences (whether one is risk-seeking or risk-averse).

  A Decision Making Framework and Sim...
  Marija Ilic [CMU] Abstract: In this talk we describe an IT-enabled decision making framework for cooperative incentives-driven utilization of the existing resources and for sustainable investments in new technologies. We point out that in order to achieve a long-term sustainable energy utilization, it is essential to provide necessary information to internalize the value of just-in-time (JIT), just-in-place (JIP) and just-in-context (JIC) distributed adaptation across the entire supply chain, ranging from the smallest consumers and energy providers, through their aggregators and system coordinators. This would avoid to a large extent technology bias. We illustrate using our model-based novel simulator how a carefully designed multi-directional and multi-temporal information exchange could enable sustainable decision making while accounting for unique needs and capabilities of various resources. At the same time, information would incentivize the resources to contribute to system-wide sustainability objectives at value. We illustrate the dependence of such decisions-driven industry evolution on the industry rules (contextual factors), as well as on the operating and planning practices for implementing the industry rules (temporal and spatial factors). Conceptual simulations are provided to illustrate strong effects of these factors on the long-term industry performance without embedding IT support, and potential improvements by means of carefully designed IT. Our model <b>...</b>
