Study on the collaborative design process over the internet: A case study on VRML 2.0 specification
In this paper, we analyze the process of VRML 2.0 (Virtual Reality Modeling Language, Version 2.0) specification design for the deeper understanding of Internet-based collaboration. The VRML design process has the characteristics of being open to the public, geographically distributed, long-term, large-scale, and diverse. First, we examine the overall features of the design process by analyzing the VRML mailing list archive statistically. Secondly, we extract prototyping vocabulary (operational

1.322 Soil Behavior (MIT)
This class presents a detailed study of soil properties with emphasis on interpretation of field and laboratory test data and their use in soft-ground construction engineering. Topics to be covered include: consolidation and secondary compression; basic strength principles; stress-strain strength behavior of clays, emphasizing effects of sample disturbance, anisotropy, and strain rate; strength and compression of granular soils; and engineering properties of compacted soils. Some knowledge of fi
21H.405J The Ancient City (MIT)
This course focuses on the archaeology of the Greek and Roman city. It investigates the relationship between urban architecture and the political, social, and economic role of cities in the Greek and Roman world, by analyzing a range of archaeological and literary evidence relevant to the use of space in Greek and Roman cities (e.g. Athens, Paestum, Rome, Pompeii) and a range of theoretical frameworks for the study of ancient urbanism.

Wednesday, November 12, 2014, 5:30 PM
Srimoyee Mitra’s talk will address Border Cultures, a curatorial experiment and an exhibition-in-progress at the Art Gallery of Winsor, whose objective is to examine the complex and shifting notions of national boundaries through contemporary art practice. Conceptualized in three parts – Part One (homes, land), 2013, Part Two (work, labour), 2014, and Part Three (security, surveillance), 2015 – the exhibition is a platform to engage in

‘The biology of the 21st Century’
Professor Denis Noble, who was a pioneer in the field of systems biology building the first working mathematical model of the heart and has been given an honorary degree at Warwick, talks about how the future study of biology will change in the 21st Century.
3.1 Learning styles Not everyone learns in the same way. We have all had different experiences of learning – whether these were at school, college or elsewhere. To find out a bit more about what kind of learner you are, try this Learning Styles Questionnaire [accessed 3 October 2006]. Once you have submitted your answers you will see a feedback page which allows you to draw some conclusions. Now read the document below about learning styles. If you want to, this would be a good opportunity to practise ma

2.2 Children’s and parents’ views What do children and parents think of teaching assistants? Curiously, little has been written about their perspectives. A small-scale study involving 78 primary-aged children in England (Eyres et al., 2004) showed that children can, when asked, differentiate between their own class teacher and other adults who work with them. However, the children reported a substantial overlap between the activities of teachers and teaching assistants. For instance, eight-year-old Sarah said: "We came here to win"-Pro-Russian militant in Ukraine 1.2 Key resources 3.2 Search engines and subject gateways Enterprise in the sports industry From Neurons to Perception: Insights into Brain Function and Dysfunction by Randolph Blake 4.6 P is for Provenance 6 And action! Getting the cameras rolling is just the beginning – there are endless possibilities you can explore. As a visual medium, DV lends itself to the creative expression of ideas, feelings and information, but it is harder to define what constitutes creativity. It's easy to equate a creative medium with a lack of constraints – an ‘anything goes’ attitude. In BECTA's pilot study, however, teachers reported that placing clear constraints on pupils’ coursework generated the best Chem 201: Organic Reactions Mechanisms I
