Learning outcomes By the end of this unit you should be able to: demonstrate an awareness of current media and policy discourses surrounding young people's physical and mental health; critically analyse ideas about young people's wellbeing using a range of theoretical perspectives; demonstrate an understanding of some of the ways in which young people's experience of mental health is shaped by diversity and inequality; demonstrate an awareness of diffe
2.3 Horizontal communication In the OSI reference model there is a clear separation of services and protocols, but this separation is not always evident in practical applications, so it is worthwhile spending some more time on the differences between them. A service is provided by one layer to the layer above, and the capabilities of a service are defined in terms of primitives and their parameters. A service relates to two adjacent layers in the same system. In contrast, a protocol defines the communication between two
1.2.2 Summary The results of successive editions of the Eurobarometer show that in most EU countries only a very small percentage of people, around 5 per cent, declare having an exclusive European identity, while up to 50 per cent do not have any sense of European identity. European political identity is weak and there is a great variation across states.
4. Music and learning ‘In music the sages found pleasure, and saw that it could be used to make the hearts of the people good. Because of the deep influence it exerts on man, and the change it produces in manners and customs, the ancient kings caused it to be one of the subjects of instruction.’ Confucius (551–479 BCE) Dr Georgi Lozanov has done considerable research into the effects of music on learning,
Combating air pollution
What’s in the air you breathe and how do you know it’s safe? Pollution control is vital since nobody has a choice when it comes to inhaling the air around them. This album introduces the scientific processes behind air monitoring and air quality management. The five video tracks explore the nature of pollution arising from different forms of transport, and look at how data is interpreted and how pollutants can be minimised. To complete the album, Senior Lecturer Rod Barratt explains the cho

8.1.2Why do you think the Home Secretary did not draw on this research when interpreting the asylum Considering these findings alongside the statistical data and our personal stories, we can draw some conclusions about the production and reproduction of knowledge about refugees and asylum seekers through research:
2.3 Synchronous and asynchronous message passing
Synchronous message passing involves one entity (usually a client) in the message passing process sending a message and a second entity (usually a server) receiving it, carrying out some processing and then sending back some response which the first entity processes in some way. While the second entity is carrying out the processing the first entity pauses waiting for the response. In asynchronous message passing each entity in the process does not have to wait for the next part
3.6 Supporting Napoleon's bulletins The scene broadly accords with Napoleon's bulletins, which similarly focus on the Russian casualties and, in expressing sorrow at the horrors of the battlefield, imply that the blame lies with other leaders: the sight, he wrote, ‘is made to inspire in princes the love of peace and the abhorrence ofwar’ (quoted in Prendergast, 1997, p.163). The incident with the Lithuanian was apparently Denon's invention. In his letter announcing the competition, Denon justifies the choice of moment by cl
What you get is what you expect
Pain is a major health care problem worldwide. It affects the well-being of millions of individuals, and its financial burden upon our societies is considerable. Pain is not a simple reflection of the degree of tissue-damage, it is strongly influenced by expectations and beliefs individuals hold about pain and their ability to cope with it. In this lecture, Dr Katja Wiech from the Centre for Pain Research, talks about research into how expectations can influence the outcome of pain treatment.
1.2: Converting to geometric form You have seen how any vector given in geometric form, in
terms of magnitude and direction, can be written in component form.
You will now see how conversion in the opposite sense may be
achieved, starting from component form. In other words, given a

Birth of the Solar System
This is a brief look at the birth of our solar system. It begins with the formation of our star, and goes over things ranging from the big bang to the creation of elements. It includes brief interviews with scientists.

Vanderbilt University students, faculty, and staff joined together to witness a once-in-a-lifetime event: a total solar eclipse.
Synaesthesia and Citizen Science
Part one. The team examines the neurological condition synaesthesia and the recent Oxford study which sheds light on its genetic basis. Also explored is Galaxy Zoo, an innovative Oxford project which asks the public to help classify galaxies.
Enacting European Citizenship (ENACT)
The term 'European citizenship' triggers an immediate association with the European Union, its member states, and people who are citizens of those states. This free course, Enacting European Citizenship (ENACT), develops another way of thinking about European citizenship whereby European citizenship need not be granted by the state, limited to the territory within the EU borders or acted out by people who are already citizens.

If we make allowance for regional and sectarian variations, we can gain some truly representative insights into a central preoccupation of living Hinduism.

Overseas contractors were selected on the basis of market price, quality and reliability, not on whether forced or child labour happened to be employed to stitch the product together. However, all that changed in the early 1990s when the geographical ties between the big retailer Acknowledgements Grateful acknowledgement is made to the following sources for permission to reproduce material within this course: Course image: P K in Flickr made available under Creative Commons Attribution 2.0 Licence.
