The GFC in Our Region: India and Indonesia
These back-to-back public lectures, sponsored by the ANU Chapter of Golden Key, will present expert views on the economies of our close neighbors India and Indonesia in the context of the global financial crisis, and the implications for Australia. The lectures will be aimed at a general audience, and an extended Q&A session will be held afterwards. Free refreshments and nibbles will be available before the lectures, and wine and cheese after they conclude. Professor Hal Hill speaking on Indones
Too Hot To Talk About: Why Is Australia Still Debating Climate Change?
Some international commentators have expressed dismay that Australia is still debating climate change while other developed and developing economies have moved on and are already making positive steps towards climate change strategies. Is Australia out of step with the rest of the world?Who's telling fibs and who's providing facts about climate change in Australia? Have the Australian people switched off? On 25 November 2009 at 12.30 pm the ANU Climate Change Institute and the ANU Centre for Pub
APW2010:Understanding the idea of an Asia Pacific Community
Professor Peter Drysdale (Crawford School of Economics & Government, ANU) has pursued a busy life as an academic researching the economies of East Asia, especially Japan, and advocating trade liberalisation, especially in the Asia Pacific. He will discuss how better understanding of the international economy is critical for anyone wishing to influence governments or to shape public debate. He has a PhD from the ANU.
India and China: Can two tigers share a mountain?
To outsiders, India and China show some striking similarities. Both are ancient civilizations reincarnated as modern republics in the mid twentieth century, and are now rising powers. Both have nuclear weapons, burgeoning economies, expanding military budgets and large reservoirs of manpower, and seem to be vying for influence in the Indian Ocean, the Persian Gulf, Africa, Central Asia and East Asia. Yet little attention is paid to the relationships between them. (From India and China: Conflict
Frontiers of knowledge: Thailand's border patrol police in the age of Internet research
Over the past decade, Thailand has experienced rapid growth in the number of Internet users and today about one third of the Thai population is regularly online. These Internet users have readily become producers of content, and the proliferation of local language material sees Thai ranked in the top 20 global Internet languages. Thai security agencies have embraced these trends and now maintain a wide range of official websites. In this paper I sketch out a tentative methodology for studying Th
Astrophysics Science and Technology Project: Integrating Research and Education (ASPIRE)
The ASPIRE Lab is now one of the most innovative and interactive science education websites available on the Internet. You will find not only fun interactive labs, but well designed and produced curriculum content, created by teachers for teachers. The powerful combination of inquiry-based content, along with interactive, hands-on labs provides a powerful visualization tool for you and your students to use. Best of all, the ASPIRE Lab is free!

5.311 Introductory Chemical Experimentation (MIT)
5.311 is the first of a three-term laboratory subject sequence for chemistry majors. Experimental work emphasizes development of fundamental laboratory skills and techniques: volumetric and colorimetric analysis; nuclear magnetic resonance; preparation, purification, and characterization of chemical substances; and data analysis. Acknowledgements The experiments for 5.311 have evolved over a period of many years and include contributions from past instructors, course textbooks, and others affili
12.864 Inference from Data and Models (MIT)
This course covers the fundamental methods used for exploring the information content of observations related to kinematical and dynamical models.
Calculus on the Web
COW is an internet utility for learning and practicing calculus. The principal purpose of COW is to provide you, the student or interested user, with the opportunity to learn and practice problems in calculus (and in the future other topics in mathematics) in a friendly environment via the internet. The most important feature of the COW is that you get to know whether your answer is correct almost immediately. It is as if you had a tutor looking over your shoulder and helping you along as you wo
Activiate your students scientific minds with these great interactive tasks
Edheads helps students learn through educational games and activities designed to meet state and national standards. We partner with various school systems in the United States, which help us research, design and test our activities
