Nevertheless, there are some input types which don’t lend themselves nicely to the standard set of machine learning tools we have. Moreover, there are some provably difficult problems which are abysmally hard to solve within a reasonable time frame. This thesis addresses several of these difficult problems. It frames these problems such that we can then attempt to marry the allegedly powerful utility of existing machine learning techniques to the practical solvability of said problems

Culturally Responsive Teaching in a War-Affected Area: Lesley University in Israel – 1979-2014

The article begins by assessing the theoretical issues raised in the literature regarding teaching in another culture and, in particular, teaching in a conflict zone.

A large portion of the article outlines the teaching and community outreach activities of Lesley University in Israel since 1979, and how they met the challenges of culturally-responsive teaching in a war-affected area, focusing on its work training therapists, educators and community activists, organizing conferences and launching community outreach programs. The article discusses issues such as preparing faculty for travel, conducting course rituals, reacting extemporaneously to cultural differences, suggesting curative and developmental solutions for the traumatic experiences borne by the students and their society, and balancing the desire to teach and uplift with the humility to recognize the wisdom of those being taught. The article concludes with lessons learned and thoughts for the future
