Activity 1 Click on 'View document' below to open and read part of Audrey Linkman's article on 'Photography and art theory', then answer the questions. Learning outcomes After studying this unit you should be able to: explain the relationship between research on national cultures and the development of the culture perspective in business studies; describe some of the problems of working in, and doing business with, businesses in other countries; offer a definition of organisational culture; recognise the factors that constitute or influence the culture of a business. Introduction Culture is just one perspective that can help us to understand more about a business. 'Business culture' is not just about how others see a business, but also about how the individuals within an organisation understand it. In this unit we explore how the concept of culture developed from research into differences between cultures at a national level. It is possible to see, or ‘feel’, that one business is different from another, and that this involves more than just how it presents it Acknowledgements Except for third party materials and otherwise stated (see terms and conditions), this content is made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.0 Licence All materials included in this unit are derived from content originated at the Open University.

Learning outcomes After studying this unit you should be able to: evaluate technical descriptions of communication protocols and demonstrate your understanding of their operation; describe the characteristics of circuit-switched and packet-switched networks, and of connectionless and connection-oriented modes in packet-switched networks; describe the role played by primitives in the OSI reference model; explain how ‘vertical’ and ‘hori Introduction People have always communicated with each other – initially by face-to-face communication through gestures and sounds, then over a distance through written messages and signals in the form of fires, lights or flags. Technology, for instance in the form of electrical signals, has reduced many of the limitations of distance. Communication networks have become very important, and modern society depends on them for the smooth operation of economic and social activities.

In England and Wales in 1980, male teachers constituted around 23 per cent and female teachers 77 per cent of the workforce (DES, 1980). By 1999 the number of men had decreased to 17 per cent and that of women had increased to 83 per cent (DfES, 2002). There is reason to think that this trend is continuing. Primary teaching is certainly a ‘feminised’ workforce, but there are also anomalies re 1 The rise of the paraprofessional

Students model and design the sound environment for a room. They analyze the sound performance of different materials that symbolize wallpaper, thick curtains, and sound-absorbing panels. Referring to the results of this analysis, they then design another room based on certain specifications and test their design.
Watch how a none poisonous snake use its tongue to trick predators, and a double headed snake having the same features of its tail as its head(Running Time 2:00).
In this middle-school level activity, students work as NASA scientists to make repeated observations of our Sun and the planets to determine their rotation rates. First, students create a playground model of rotation and create representative diagrams. Students then observe NASA images of sunspots to determine the rotation rate of our Sun. In the last phase, students download NASA movies from the Internet and measure rotation rates for objects in the solar system.

Recent studies suggest that, as in other aging syndromes, the Hutchinson-Gilford syndrome is due to a defect in the mechanism of DNA repair. Mutations have been found in the Lamin A gene (LMNA) situated on chromosome 1.
