Beer sample - Work safely
An introduction to procedures in scientific and medical
testing laboratories for preparing beer samples for examination under a microscope.
Covers safety protocols, spill cleanup and waste disposal.
Prepare samples for testing
An introduction to laboratory testing required by laboratory
technicians. Covers biological, chemical and physical testing samples provided by clients.
It also looks at procedures carried out by lab technicians in performing tests on each
samples of effluent, preparing, labelling and storage of samples. All testing laboratories
use Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and Standard Operating Procedures
(SOP).
Transfer samples aseptically - Use Aseptic Techniques
An introduction to aseptic techniques used by scientific
and medical laboratory technicians to collect and test material without
contamination. Covers the use of aseptic techniques to transfer sample material
during laboratory tests.
Most Probable Number Test - Counting Microorganisms
An introduction to microbiological laboratory procedures
for lab technicians in scientific and medical testing laboratories. Covers
procedures for counting micro-organisms using the most probable number
test.
Urine sample - Prepare samples for microscopic examination
An introduction to procedures in scientific and medical testing
laboratories for preparing cultures from urine samples for examination under a microscope.
Covers safety issues, aseptic technique and smear preparation.
Terrific Tastebuds
Developed for third grade. The students will be given an introduction to tastebuds, focusing on the different types of tastebuds, what they taste, and where they are located on the tongue. They will do this by sampling four different tastes (lemon - sour, sugar - sweet, salt - salty, and tonic water - bitter) and determining which can be tasted the best in what areas of the tongue. Given a diagram that maps out the main regions of the tongue, the students will indicate which area is designated f
2.997 Direct Solar/Thermal to Electrical Energy Conversion Technologies (MIT)
This course introduces principles and technologies for converting heat into electricity via solid-state devices. The first part of the course discusses thermoelectric energy conversion and thermoelectric materials, thermionic energy conversion, and photovoltaics. The second part of the course discusses solar thermal technologies. Various solar heat collection systems will be reviewed, followed by an introduction to the principles of solar thermophotovoltaics and solar thermoelectrics. Spectral c
6.087 Practical Programming in C (MIT)
This course provides a thorough introduction to the C programming language, the workhorse of the UNIX operating system and lingua franca of embedded processors and micro-controllers. The first two weeks will cover basic syntax and grammar, and expose students to practical programming techniques. The remaining lectures will focus on more advanced concepts, such as dynamic memory allocation, concurrency and synchronization, UNIX signals and process control, library development and usage. Daily pro
21W.784 Becoming Digital: Writing about Media Change (MIT)
"Becoming Digital" traces the change in practice, theory and possibility as mechanical and chemical media are augmented or supplanted by digital media. These changes will be grounded in a semester length study of "reports from the front." These reports, found and introduced by students throughout the semester, are the material produced by and about soldiers and civilians on the battlefield from the introduction of wet photography during the Crimean and Civil Wars to contempor
17.202 Graduate Seminar in American Politics II (MIT)
This is the second in a sequence of two field seminars in American politics intended for graduate students in political science, in preparation for taking the general examination in American politics. The material covered in this semester focuses on American political institutions. The readings covered here are not comprehensive, but it is sufficiently broad to give students an introduction to major empirical questions and theoretical approaches that guide the study of American political institu
21W.747-1 Rhetoric (MIT)
This course is an introduction to the theory, the practice, and the implications (both social and ethical) of rhetoric, the art and craft of persuasion. This semester, many of your skills will have the opportunity to be deepened by practice, including your analytical and critical thinking skills, your persuasive writing skills, and your oral presentation skills. In this course you will act as both a rhetor (a person who uses rhetoric) and as a rhetorical critic (one who studies the art of rhetor
6.701 Introduction to Nanoelectronics (MIT)
Traditionally, progress in electronics has been driven by miniaturization. But as electronic devices approach the molecular scale, classical models for device behavior must be abandoned. To prepare for the next generation of electronic devices, this class teaches the theory of current, voltage and resistance from atoms up. To describe electrons at the nanoscale, we will begin with an introduction to the principles of quantum mechanics, including quantization, the wave-particle duality, wavefunct
Design and Technology
A clever student produced slide show with musical accompaniment showing the many fields within Design and Technology. Â A very good introduction to Career and Technical courses. Â
The Human Adaptation for Culture
Professor Michael Tomasello from the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology’s Department of Developmental and Comparative Psychology, in Leipzig, Germany gave the inaugural annual public address for the School of Psychology entitled The Human Adaptation for Culture.
Lying at the core of his argument is language and therefore culture is the product of remarkable and recently evolved faculty to understand othe
