Entrepreneurship: The Real-Time Case Study
As you read this, the managers of a new high-tech company, (to be announced), are striving to achieve the entrepreneurial dream. On a special website you will follow that company, and see their progress week by week. But you will do more than just watch. You will be actively engaged with the company, analyzing its problems, and making input. You will be participating in an in-depth, real-time case study. Unlike traditional case studies, this real-time case will dig deeply into one company during

Todd and Robert Sonkin Migrant Worker Collection, consists of audio recordings, photographs, manuscript materials, and publications.
Givology 101: The Study of Effective Philanthropic Giving
In a five-minute lecture on Locust Walk in the center of the University of Pennsylvania's campus, Katherina Rosqueta, the executive director for Penn's Center for High Impact Philanthropy, discusses effective charitable giving. Organized by Givology, a student group designed to raise money for international educational development, the free lecture was open to the public.
The Center for High Impact Philanthropy is a resource center for donors who want their charitable dollars to have the gre
Star Library: Counting Eights: A First Activity in the Study and Interpretation of Probability
Students explore the definition and interpretations of the probability of an event by investigating the long run proportion of times a sum of 8 is obtained when two balanced dice are rolled repeatedly. Making use of hand calculations, computer simulations, and descriptive techniques, students encounter the laws of large numbers in a familiar setting. By working through the exercises, students will gain a deeper understanding of the qualitative and quantitative relationships between theoretical p
College Lesson Study Project
The process of Lesson Study is a unique form of collaborative classroom inquiry, frequently practiced in Japanese elementary schools, in which a small team of instructors designs, teaches, studies and refines a single class lesson.

Geopolitics and Imperialism: the British Empire and Halford Mackinder 1890-1940
It was perhaps no coincidence that Halford Mackinder, the most famous exponent of geopolitical theory, wrote his seminal essay in 1904 when British world power seemed on the verge of a secular crisis. This lecture examines how far the insights contained in Mackinder's four major works explain the geopolitical fortunes of the British world system in its age of blood and iron.

SEM study of slip development in deformed cadmium single crystal
Slip proceeding on previously deformed single crystal of cadmium. An unusually large slip step can be seen on the left-hand edge of the specimen. As slip proceeds, the slip planes rotate towards the tensile axis, but the large slip step does not increase in size.

SEM study of slip in deformed cadmium single crystal
Slip proceeding on previously deformed single crystal of cadmium fracturing in an SEM. The trace of the slip planes can be seen. Markers have been dropped onto the surface of the crystal to allow the relative movement of parts of the crystal to be clearly seen.

SEM study of fracture in cadmium single crystal
SEM video of a single crystal of cadmium fracturing under tensile load. The mode of fracture is ductile tearing. Shows how the angle of the fracture surfaces mimics the angle of the slip planes in the deformed crystal. From TLP: Slip in Single Crystals, http://www.msm.cam.ac.uk/doitpoms/tlplib/slip/videos.php
