Understanding Local
Networks
Neural Networks
- The human brain is a
biological neural network.
- It functions on how things
and processes interconnect
and work
interdependently.
- It has the capacity to
adjust through the 21st
century environment.
The Human Brain as the Neural
Network
- The human brain can be
described as a biological neural
network – an interconnected
web of neurons (nerve cells)
transmitting elaborate patterns
of electrical signals.
- Dendrites receive input signals,
and based on those inputs, fire
an output signal via axon.
- How the human brain actually
works is an elaborate and
complex mystery.
Neural Networks
- Individual neurons cannot carry
enough information to
determine the taste of a bite of
food or the color of an object.
- Color processing, for example,
depends on just four –labelled
lines carrying information
about red, green, blue, and
yellow light.
- This processing requires complex networks of
neurons; neural networks are groups of neurons that
function together to carry out a process.
Our Connections and
Relationships
- Every individual is connected to
each other.
- Each one of us is a unique
individual , with unique capacity
to contribute to the whole.
- Our collaboration is a skill to
survive in the 21st century world.
- It is imperative to discover roles
in an interdependent
connection.
- It is imperative to discover roles in an
interdependent connection.
- The 21st century world brings enormous challenges
in the way people see their connections to others.
Explainer: What is Biodiversity
and Why Does It
Matter?
- Biodiversity collectively
describes the vast array of
approximately 9 million unique
living organisms (including
homo sapiens) that inhabit the
earth, together with the
interactions amongst them.
- The concept includes every
species of bacteria, virus, plant,
fungi, and animal.
- It also encompasses the
diverse ecosystems the
species make up and the
ongoing evolutionary
processes that keep them
functioning and adapting.
- Without these organisms,
ecosystems and
ecological processes,
human societies could
not exist.
- They enable plants to grow and
therefore to feed us, keep pest
species and diseases in check,
and help protect against
flooding and regulate the
climate.
- These benefits are known as
ecosystems services.
- Biodiversity is a functioning
world that provides a living for
farmers, fishers, timber-
workers, and tourism operators.
Biodiversity in Decline
- The explosion of the human
population from 2 to 7 billion
in just 100 years has caused
the extinction of many
species.
- Climate-driven global
extinction event.
- Reduction in the stability and
productivity of ecosystems.
We Have the Science: Policy Is
the Next Step
- Translate accumulated
knowledge on biodiversity
into government policy
through programs and on-
the-ground management.
- Where to invest, what to
manage, and which approach
to take.
- Connect traditional
knowledge, law, and customs
with international systems for
protected area management.

TRENDS,NETWORKS, AND CRITICAL THINKING IN
THE 21ST CENTURY
Woody R. Lazaro
HUMSS Department
Looking Back at the Seven Media
Trends in 2014
1. Fueled by technology,
marketers will become even
more obsessed with data.
- Data is a necessity in marketing
to the on-the-go consumers
and technology promises lots of
it.
2. Programmatic buying will
become second nature
- Programmatic buying for both
digital and TV will continue to
gain significant market share.
3. Banner ads are not going anywhere
- Traditional display ads will remain strong.
4. Media plans will be screen agnostic
5. Mobile will finally grow up
6. Native advertising will explode
7. Online video will continue to expand
