The anatomy cook book : a dissection guide with recipes
The Anatomy Cookbook has been written to accompany an anatomy and physiology course for bioengineers who would otherwise have missed out on the opportunity to study real organ systems at first hand. It is not an alternative to a standard anatomy text, it acts more as a laboratory supplement. The fun bit is that your kitchen takes the place of the dissection room. Each recipe provides an insight into one or more organs, and all you need to do is go to the supermarket and be prepared to think abou
Serious Breaches Relating to the Food Act
Use of e-learning tools for 3 units of Certificate III in Hospitality
(Commercial Cookery) for apprentice cooks. These units are the first 3 units to be
studied in the program and to be available on line can reduce the face to face learning
time and enable the apprentice to commence study while waiting to commence trade
school.

15.099 Readings in Optimization (MIT)
In keeping with the tradition of the last twenty-some years, the Readings in Optimization seminar will focus on an advanced topic of interest to a portion of the MIT optimization community: randomized methods for deterministic optimization. In contrast to conventional optimization algorithms whose iterates are computed and analyzed deterministically, randomized methods rely on stochastic processes and random number/vector generation as part of the algorithm and/or its analysis. In the seminar, w
Design of an eLearning System for Accreditation of
Non-formal Learning
This paper deals with issues related to the non-formal learning in vocational
education, and the role of ICT for providing appropriate accreditation model in such
education. The presented conclusions are based on the Leonardo da Vinci project
LeoSPAN. The paper emphasises on the development of a model and a prototype
of an adaptive eLearning system that ensures the pre-defined learner outcomes.
One of the advantages of the eLearning system is the flexibility for people who
