Urban Informatics: The Internet, locative media and mobile technology for urbanites
Marcus Foth overviews various urban informatics projects, exploring the communicative ecology of urban residents, community engagement using public history and digital storytelling, and social navigation for mobile urban information systems Cities are exciting. Cities are buzzing. They are alive with movement. A rapid flow of exchange is facilitated by a meshwork of infrastructure connections: road systems, building complexes, information and communication technology and people networks. In this
2.4 Other spectrographs
This unit looks at how telescopes and spectrographs are designed to improve our ability to observe the universe. You will examine how different technologies have been developed over the last four hundred years to enable us to look deep into space.

2.2 The clockwork Universe
The restless Universe introduces you to major achievements and figures in the history of physics, from Copernicus to Einstein and beyond. The route from classical to quantum physics will be laid out for you without recourse to challenging mathematics but with the fundamental features of theories and discoveries described in sufficient detail to whet your appetite for further physics study.

Students speak at climate conference
Students weigh in at climate conference in Mexico, UN agency says greenhouse gasses a real threat.
James Clerk Maxwell
James Clerk Maxwell (1831-1879) is arguably the father of electromagnetism, and unarguably one of the greatest physicists ever. Einstein called Maxwell's equations 'the most important event in physics since Newton's time, not only because of their wealth of content, but also because they form a pattern for a new type of law'. This unit will examine Maxwell's greatest triumph, the prediction that electromagnetic waves can propagate vast distances through empty space and the realisation that light

The Mobility of English School Children
This paper reports the findings of an empirical research study which analyses the mobility of a sample of pupils in state schools during the period 2001 to 2003. It defines pupil mobility as pupils who change school from one school year to the next, but its particular focus is on pupils changing schools at times other than natural transitions, such as from primary school to secondary school.
Toying with Transmedia: The Future of Entertainment is Child’s Play
In what could be the ultimate twist on Toy Story, Henry Jenkins suggests that action figures -- those Star Wars and Masters of the Universe dolls from a few decades ago -- had the power to spark human creativity and transcend their original function. Jenkins argues such toys served children and yo
Jeroen Tromp, Anatoly Spitkovsky, Curt Hillegas: Applications of High Performance Computing at Princ
Lunch 'n Learn presentation: Two Princeton faculty describe their research uses of Princeton's high performance computing facilities. Professor Anatoly Spitkovsky will discuss "Simulations of Astrophysical Shocks. He will talk about the first-principles plasma simulations of shock waves in astrophysics, addressing a very simple-sounding problem --- what happens when two clouds of ionized gas collide in space? Professor Jeroen Tromp will talk about "Simulating the Big One, a large-scale 3D nu
Modern War & Modern Law
Warfare has become a legal institution. Law organises and disciplines the military, defines the battle-space, privileges killing the enemy, and offers a common language to debate the legitimacy of waging…

Strategic leadership in the media industry - Ashridge Journal Article
Autocratic, manipulative, power hungry, perhaps even deranged - the media mogul as portrayed in the press is one of history's more enduring figures. What are the strategic approaches and leadership traits that make for success in this fast moving, often turbulent industry? Lucy Kung combines recent thinking on leadership in creative environments and makes some recommendations for leaders in the media.
