Abstract This case study was prepared as part of an Asian Development Bank (ADB) Special Evaluation Study (SES) on Small-Scale Freshwater Rural Aquaculture Development. In the context of the SES, this case study used primary and secondary data and published information to document the human, social, natural, physical and financial capital available to households involved in the production and consumption of freshwater farmed fish and to identify channels through which the poor are affected. The history, biophysical, socioeconomic and institutional characteristics of Lake Taal, Batangas, Philippines are described, followed by accounts of the technology and management used for tilapia cage farming and nursery operations, with detailed profiles of fish farmers and other beneficiaries. Transforming processes are then discussed with respect to markets, labour, institutions, support services, policy, legal instruments, natural resources and their management and environmental issues. Main outcomes, conclusions and implications for poverty alleviation are then summarized.

The Impact

In this program evaluation study, we analyzed the impact of interpersonal validation and participation in living-learning communities (LLC) on retention and GPA via regression and propensity score matching. The LLCs were designed to improve outcomes for underrepresented, low-income and first-generation students at a Midwestern regional public university. Employing data from the widely used Mid-Year Student Assessment™, we created a validation score. This student validation score was significantly associated with retention in semester three, and third semester and sixth semester GPA. In the matched pair analyses, we found mixed results with significantly improved retention for participants in just one LLC compared to their matched peers, and significantly improved GPA for a combined group of LLC participants.

In the context of the SES, this case study used primary and secondary data and published information to document the human, social, natural, physical and financial capital available to households involved in the production and consumption of freshwater farmed fish and to identify channels through which the poor are affected. This case study describes first the history, biophysical, socioeconomic, and institutional characteristics of Central Luzon, followed by accounts of the technology and management for farming tilapia, with detailed profiles of fish farmers and other beneficiaries. Transforming processes are discussed with respect to markets, institutions, support services, policy and legal instruments, natural resources management, and environmental issues.

ABSTRACT Objective: To carry out the National Immunization Program Information System (SIPNI) accessability assessment (EA), considering the description of the intervention, the elaboration of the theoretical-logical model and the identification of the evaluative questions. Method: A single case study with a qualitative approach, based on the system of seven elements proposed by Thurston and Ramaliu (2005). The SIPNI and the context of analysis, the vaccination rooms, were defined as the case. Results: The SIPNI description, based on documents and scientific evidence, made it possible to understand its operationalization, the main events that characterize it. The theoretical-logical model visually and systematically configured the SIPNI organization with details of the inputs, activities, products and expected effects. The evaluative questions were evaluated and validated to evaluate the SIPNI. Final considerations: The SIPNI is evaluable and presented a favorable scenario for its development. EA is an important strategy for planning subsequent evaluations, maximizing their potentials.

Penelitian ini bertujuan menemukenali kendala pengangkutan besi baja dari PT. Krakatau Steel Cilegon untuk pengiriman ke Semarang dan Surabaya, sebagai bahan evaluasi pimpinan untuk pengambilan kebijakan tentang pengangkutan besi baja dengan kereta api pada lintas tersebut. Penelitian dilakukan melalui proses pengumpulan data sekunder dan data primer di PT. Krakatau Steel dengan metode wawancara kepada manajamen perusahaan, serta melakukan pengamatan langsung terhadap kondisi sarana, prasarana, dan fasilitas penunjang pengoperasian kereta api untuk pengangkutan besi baja. Penelitian ini juga menganalisis perkembangan pengangkutan besi baja pada lima tahun kedepan (2013-2017), dengan menggunakan metode analisis forecasting yang menunjukkan terjadi penurunan pengangkutan besi baja WRD (Waiyer Road Drill) tujuan ke Semarang. Hasil analisis perlu adanya perbaikan prasarana, sarana, dan faktor penunjang lainnya, meliputi perubahan track dan membuat desain gerbong untuk pengangkutaan besi baja jenis HRC (Hot Rolled Coil) dan WRD (Waiyer Road Drill).

Abstract A greater degree of awareness of comfort and productivity of building users according to post-occupancy evaluation and feedback of users in intelligent buildings is necessary. This report presents a summary of the results from a physical measurements, a post-occupancy evaluation study on perceived comfort of indoor environment and self-evaluation of occupant’s performance in the new multifunctional 5 floor-building in city of Kosice, Slovakia. There were investigated degree of perceived comfort and user’s performance with regard to objective measurement, respondents' response and building character. This case study has highlighted that influence of monitored factors of building with smart elements is positively received and wasn't determined their negative impact on perceived comfort of indoor environment and occupants' performance. Results show that respondents are mostly satisfied with their indoor environment conditions of workplace. Interviews with respondents detected they have not been perceived (negative) factors in workplace because they have been too concentric on the work and they have not felt discomfort.
