6.4.1 Writing a chemical equation to describe a chemical process
Atoms, elements and molecules are the building blocks of everything that makes up our world, including ourselves. In this unit you will learn the basic chemistry of how these components work together, starting with a chemical compound we are all very familiar with – water.
6.4 Mentored presentation
Effective communication is the key to a successful presentation. This unit will provide you with a systematic approach to develop the necessary skills. It is important to understand that effective presentation skills can be practised and learned. It is the content of your presentation, and the simple delivery of clear and reasoned arguments, which will help you to achieve your objectives.
Screening for Autism Spectrum Disorders: Pediatric Practices Eight Years after Publication of Practi
This project describes current general developmental and autism screening practices of pediatricians in the United States following the latest practice guidelines published by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) in November 2007. It compares results to data collected in previous surveys on this topic, which suggest that pediatricians are not following the AAP guidelines despite repeated recommendations to do so over the past 8 years. A 110-question web-based survey was made available to 386
Introduction to Theory of Literature
This is a survey of the main trends in twentieth-century literary theory. Lectures will provide background for the readings and explicate them where appropriate, while attempting to develop a coherent overall context that incorporates philosophical and social perspectives on the recurrent questions: what is literature, how is it produced, how can it be understood, and what is its purpose?
4.5 A different perspective
Writing reports and assignments can be a daunting prospect. This unit is designed to help you develop the skills you need to write effectively for academic purposes. You will learn how to interpret questions and how to plan, structure and write your assignment or report.

Networks and Communities of Practice: The Good, The Bad and The Ugly - Larry Prusak
Larry Prusak is a globally recognised authority in the field of knowledge management . He received the Lewin Award from Organization Science and Work Frontiers International has named him as one of the ten most admired knowledge leaders in the world. His books include Working Knowledge.
Basic Concepts of Mathematics
This book helps the student complete the transition from purely manipulative to rigorous mathematics. The clear exposition covers many topics that are assumed by later courses but are often not covered with any depth or organization: basic set theory, induction, quantifiers, functions and relations, equivalence relations, properties of the real numbers (including consequences of the completeness axiom), fields, and basic properties of n-dimensional Euclidean spaces.
12.753 Geodynamics Seminar (MIT)
In this year's Geodynamics Seminar, we will explore the depth and breadth of scientific research related to Earth's present and past ice-sheets, glaciers and sea-ice, as well as extraterrestrial planetary ice.
Invited speakers have been chosen from experts in the current frontiers in ice-related research, including planetary ice, climate records from polar and tropical ice cores, the Snowball Earth, subglacial volcanoes, ice rheology, ice sheet modeling, ice microkinetics, glacial erosion and t
08 - Nanotechnologies : débat d’anticipation et débat impossible ?
La place de la science dans la société s’est modifiée au cours des dernières décennies, à la fois du fait des scientifiques eux-mêmes, mais aussi des risques liés à l’idée de progrès qu’elle pouvait incarner, en particulier dans les sciences dites exactes. De plus, la libéralisation croissante de l’économie, la construction d’un espace politique supra-national et le mouvement de réformes des années quatrevingt-dix en Europe sont autant de questions qui interrogent le
Die Deutschen in Toulouse
Dans le cadre des interviews allemandes pour la rubrique VO sur Canal U, nous jetons aujourd'hui un regard sur « les Allemands à Toulouse ». Ils sont environ 10.000 à vivre dans l’agglomération toulousaine, la plupart d’entre eux à Pibrac, Blagnac, Colomiers et Tournefeuille.
Lorsqu’on parle de la « présence allemande » à Toulouse, on pense surtout à des entreprises telles que Airbus et EADS. Mais depuis les années 1960 un réseau allemand particulièrement dense et

9.8 Debate 5: the novel today
Sunset Song was written in the early 1930s and is still one of the best-known and most-debated Scottish novels. In this unit, we discuss whether Sunset Song succeeds as critique of capitalism and whether it has value as a work of literature separate from its propagandistic ambitions.
Game Theory
This course is an introduction to game theory and strategic thinking. Ideas such as dominance, backward induction, Nash equilibrium, evolutionary stability, commitment, credibility, asymmetric information, adverse selection, and signaling are discussed and applied to games played in class and to examples drawn from economics, politics, the movies, and elsewhere.
Episode 89: Moving and seeing again: the promise of neural interface technologies Prof John Donoghue and Prof Robert Shepherd discuss the development of neural interface technologies, the product of researchers across many disciplines, that could enable the brain to interact with damaged limbs and eyes. With host Shane Huntington.
