Geomorphic sensitivity of rivers along the Niagara Escarpment to land-use and climate change: Implications for erosion risk in Hamilton, Ontario

The Niagara Escarpment is a dominant natural feature in southern Ontario and provides the region with exceptional sites of natural beauty including numerous waterfalls and exposed rocky cliffs. There is little data on geomorphic characteristics of rivers along the escarpment and their sensitivity to erosion under future land development and climate change. The proposed project aims to assess the sensitivity of rivers in the Hamilton area to erosion and its relationship to the underlying geologic structure of the Niagara Escarpment. The results of this research will be communicated to government agencies, recreational users, and the public to help provide the understanding needed to better protect and maintain access to this important natural feature.

Organizational Evaluation of ArtsJunktion: Impact on Community Well-being and Community Environmental Sustainability

Arts, environment, and community are the three core values of my partner organization Artsjunktion. Using reusable and recyclable materials which are mostly donated by community members, it provides a safe community to local artists and local people. It distributes the art materials to other community organizations. Its depot is one of the important recycling cite in Winnipeg and receives recyclable materials every day. However, it has not conducted a significant research or evaluation of its effectiveness and impact on both communities and environment. In order to improve its effort, a critical assessment of organization must be done. In this role, I have two objectives in evaluation of ArtJunktion. The first objective is to reveal the existing weaknesses and strengths of ArtJunktion as a community organization. More specifically, I will research the effectiveness of organizational networks. That includes assessment existing connection and information exchange tools with other environmental organizations, NGOs, schools, and the administration in Winnipeg. Leading people is also responsibility of the organization, so I will conduct survey and interview (either inperson or online) to evaluate how much its clients understand the work of ArtsJunktion and Winnipeg Manitoba regarding environmental sustainability.

Community Engagement Assistant at Artbeat Studio

Artbeat Studio strives to create a safe space for community to drop in and create art. Particularly, their goal is to reach those who require more support for their mental health, provide community for those individuals, and create meaningful connections to empower them to take steps in their mental health journey. Artbeat Studio facilitates many events, and workshops to diversify the art practices they are sharing, and reach more of the community. The main purpose of my role would be to interact with participants in the studio, ensure safety, facilitate connection, and assist in any way the studio requires. Further, I would organize outdoor art-making events to bring the community together, advertise these events, enrich already existing programming, and bring new experiences and opportunities to the community, and organization. I would also be in charge of facilitating a community art show at the end of the term, to showcase and celebrate the communities creations. These efforts would strengthen the already existing programming at Artbeat Studio, while revitalizing the community outreach, providing more people safe spaces and supports through art making.

Student Support for West Broadway Community Organization

I will personally be working with West Broadway Community Organization (WBCO) in a partnership with New Journey Housing. These organizations are located in the heart of Winnipeg’s Inner City as supports in community development for this area. The hope of this project is to help WBCO and New Journey Housing develop a social media strategy and outreach opportunities. This will include developing a series of posts that can be shared across different platforms. The posts will share important information on their upcoming workshops and explain resources on housing and financial benefits. The project will include developing a timeline of posts to create a flow of themes and related calls to action for the audience. Canva will be utilized as the main tool in creating the valuable content. Said content will be used throughout the year extending past August, as a content catalog the organization will pull from when posting. Another goal for the project includes increasing their posts per week and grow engagement on all active platforms in order to increase participation in NJH workshops.

Digital Archive Creation and Artwork Curation

Graffiti Art Programming Inc. (aka Graffiti Gallery, GAP) describes themselves as “a community arts organization located in the Point Douglas neighbourhood of Winnipeg that facilitates free educational arts programming for children and youth who may otherwise lack access to mentorship and artistic instruction…GAP’s main exhibition space, Graffiti Gallery, is a contemporary art gallery that showcases the work of both emerging local and established international artists working outside the expectations of traditional arts institutions.” To better share and preserve the work of Graffiti Gallery, the creation of an easily-accessible, digital catalogue of past exhibitions and events will be undertaken. The “GAP Catalogue” will serve to preserve Winnipeg’s cultural history so that it is not lost or forgotten, and will enable the gallery to reach a wider audience through its virtual platforms. Since the creation of the catalogue will require a wide-sweeping digitization of the organization’s hard copy photographs and publicity clippings, the Graffiti Gallery staff will have access to a highly-organized, digital collection which will lead to improved organizational and marketing efficiencies while promoting new patronage to the gallery.

Customer Intelligence Predictive Models: Customer Attrition, Loyalty Scoring and Next Best Offer

The purpose of this project is to develop three predictive models for Temenos’ Customer Intelligence offering including: (1) Customer Attrition; (2) Loyalty Scoring; and, (3) Next Best Offer. Customer attrition, also called “churn”, or “defection”, is a major business issue for organizations to address. It is crucial to maintain and grow customer relationships in order to sustain profitable growth. There are many ways to measure customer loyalty which are predominantly market research based such as the Net Promoter Score, satisfaction and likelihood to repurchase. However, it is getting increasingly difficult to get representative samples of the entire customer base. Data modeling can provide insight into loyalty based on actual customer behavior
instead of perception alone.
Next best offer (NBO) models predict the next product, service or offer that a customer is likely to buy or use given the customer’s previous purchase history. NBO models are effective in cross-selling and when used along with campaign response data to improve response rates. The approach is to develop individual propensity-to-buy predictive analytics models for each product or offering. These models are then combined to create a set of best next offers for each customer.

Standard Operating Procedures for HR and Marketing/Client Acquisition/Retention

David Schultz started Window Washing Warriors in early 2016 however it stayed relatively small until 2018 when David attended college to learn how to more effectively run a business. The business grew from 62 to 269 customers in the following 4 years. Last year David realize he had to standardize his policies procedures and processes in order to continue to grow. Since then Window Washing Warriors has incorporated, hired an accountant and lawyer as well as introduced a customer relationship management software system. Window Washing Warriors needs to ensure quality and safety while the business continues to grow and the way to do that is to create a set of policies, procedures, and processes to outline proper internal actions as well as techniques when on the job site. It also needs to standardize its marketing strategy to understand why the business marketing strategies work and how to capitalize on its brand strengths. However, David lacks the time and experience to develop these systems effectively. Window Washing Warriors would like to hire a business student as an intern who will be able to focus on these two areas starting May 1 through August 31, 2022.

Automated detection of lung pathologies using ultrasound imaging

The objective of this project is to automate the interpretation of lung ultrasound images to detect artifacts associated with pneumonia. The lung ultrasound scans could be used in point-of-care units to detect and monitor pneumonia in severe COVID-19 patients. The studies have shown that lung ultrasound scans offer a more accurate diagnosis of interstitial pneumonia in comparison to radiographs. Although computed tomography (CT) scans provide better quality images to detect lung pneumonia, repeated CT scans represent a high radiation dose. The Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), Society of Thoracic Radiology and American College of Radiology (ACR) do not recommend using CT scans for routine screening to identify pneumonia in COVID-19 patients. In contrast, ultrasound imaging is ionizing radiation-free and inexpensive. Due to their small size, portable ultrasound scanners are relatively easy to disinfect. However, the interpretation of the lung ultrasound scans requires a significant amount of time as these scans are typically saved as videos. The recent advancements in medical image processing and machine learning techniques offer an excellent solution to automate the interpretation to reduce the time spent on the diagnosis.
