All Caught Up: Bycatching and Design
Read the Fine Print
Educational Use
Rating
0.0 stars

Bycatch, the unintended capture of animals in commercial fishing gear, is a hot topic in marine conservation today. The surprisingly high level of bycatch about 25% of the entire global catch is responsible for the decline of hundreds of thousands of dolphins, whales, porpoises, seabirds and sea turtles each year. Through this curricular unit, students analyze the significance of bycatch in the global ecosystem and propose solutions to help reduce bycatch. They become familiar with current attempts to reduce the fishing mortality of these animals. Through the associated activities, the challenges faced today are reinforced and students are stimulated to brainstorm about possible engineering designs or policy changes that could reduce the magnitude of bycatch.

The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"More than 350 million adult survivors of war throughout the world suffer from post-traumatic stress syndrome (PTSD) and/or major depression Most live in low- and middle-income countries While treating the systemic impact of PTSD in these areas is extremely difficult, effective treatments are available Exposure therapies, such as Narrative Exposure Therapy, can be brief, culturally sensitive and help communities affected by complex traumatic stress Exposure therapy involves imaginatively reliving the life-altering moments leading to a PTSD diagnosis Evidence suggests that exposure therapy works by reconnecting areas of the brain that stopped communicating due to experiencing one or more traumatic events Although the focus of exposure therapy is on reducing individual PTSD symptoms, the impact of therapy can extend beyond the individual level leading to better relationship functioning and social engagement Multi-level treatments like exposure therapy and relational interventions could be a powerful.."
