A Historical Examination Of Native American And European Agroforestry, Reed Bryant May 2023

A Historical Examination Of Native American And European Agroforestry, Reed Bryant

Bryant University Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies

According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), “Agroforestry is the intentional integration of trees and shrubs into crop and animal farming systems to create environmental, economic, and social benefits. It has been practiced in the United States and around the world for centuries.” However, for many practitioners in the past, agroforestry was not simply an “integration of trees and shrubs into animal farming systems,” nor was it simply a means to produce foodstuffs. For them, agroforestry defined a way of life where trees were fixtures in the landscape which bore many life-giving gifts: fruits and nuts to eat, …

How Infectious Is Your Twitter Feed? Disease Modeling Applied To The Dynamics Of Twitter, Kai-Jia Yue Dec 2022

How Infectious Is Your Twitter Feed? Disease Modeling Applied To The Dynamics Of Twitter, Kai-Jia Yue

Honors Projects in Science and Technology

This study aims to use compartmental disease-models to explore Twitter dynamics. Applying an epidemiology model to Twitter tweets can give deeper insights into the factors that make a tweet go viral. In addition, this study explored the differences between a stochastic and a dynamic compartmental model. This research connects the world of diseases with the internet and explored if a disease model will accurately model Twitter dynamics. We found that stochastic models were better at fitting to smaller populations of data than dynamic models were. Dynamic models ended up predicting larger populations better. Furthermore, we found that although a topic …

Body Map, Cara Ferro

Bryant University Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies

Mind and Body

This piece focuses on the connection of the mind and body. Neither is separate and both affect each other. Physical health can affect your mental health and vice versa, as the body is a connected system inside and out. As someone who suffers from chronic physical pains as well as diagnosed anxiety that feels like an unbearable mental pain, this artwork incases the feeling of being overloaded by the painful sensations. Sometimes, a bad mental state can cause physical damage and bad physical health can negatively affect your mental health. With that, I have learned that when …

Body Map, Rebecca Kaminskas

Bryant University Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies

This piece is a deeper representation of myself. I am built out of the support I have from friends and family around me, hence the bricks. The sun represents my strive to remain optimistic and a light in people’s life. The colors of light blue fading into a darker blue represent a sense of community leading into comfort. Finally, the head shows how I am filled with overthinking and anxiety.

Body Map, Ella Coffin

Bryant University Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies

Body mapping is a representative method of creation where one can investigate and explore meaning with their relationships with others globally. It allows one a means to creatively communicate social issues, identity, and express personal experience/s.

Through symbolism of my community, experiences, and personality my body mapping piece represents my diversity and uniqueness. I am proud of who I am and this piece allows me to embrace my differences, qualities, and talents.
