Pedagogical Innovation in New Learning Communities: An In-Depth Study of Twelve Online Learning Comm
<p>The aim of this study is to review and assess the new social and pedagogical approaches to<br />
learning that are emerging in new ICT-facilitated collaborative learning settings. In addition<br />
to formal education, such communities are increasingly emerging in informal and non-formal<br />
lifelong learning environments where learning is happening in a freely organised manner,<br />
bringing together learners, experts, and other parties. This study aims to ex
Directional design: study desk
Design a desk that is well suited for uses in a home and also has a
low impact on the natural environment. Look closely at requirements in a design brief
such as storage and ergonomic features. Ask a family and consultants which design
factors are important. Improve the desk's appeal and usefulness by choosing options for
an element such as colour, materials and finish. Minimise environmental impact by
choosing elements such as surface
Directional design: study lamp
Design a desk lamp that is well suited for studying and also has a
low impact on the natural environment. Look closely at requirements in a design brief
such as energy efficiency, stylishness and stability. Ask a family and consultants which
design factors are important. Improve the lamp's appeal and usefulness by choosing
options for an element such as materials, shape of the shade and base. Minimise
environmental impact by choosing de
Introduction to Small Business: transport and distribution: study guide
This module aims to introduce principles of small business management - the concepts and factors required to run a small business in the transport industry. It has been designed to suit people who currently or plan to, manage small transport companies. This is the introductory module in Certificate III in Small Business Management (Transport and Distribution) and the only mandatory module for the Certificate. The nominal number of hours for this module is 40 hours.

TALAT Lecture 2105.01: Case Study on Pressure Vessels
This lecture helps to create an understanding of how material properties, costs of materials and of their fabrication, required product life, and product liability interact in different ways depending on the product. Some knowledge of fabricating processes and the significance of such factors as fatigue, fracture toughness and environmental performance on material selection is assumed.
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. From TLP: Slip in Single Crystals, http://www.msm.cam.ac.uk/doitpoms/tlplib/slip/videos.php
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
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. From TLP: Slip in Single Crystals, http://www.msm.cam.ac.uk/doitpoms/tlplib/slip/videos.php
SEM study of slip in undeformed cadmium single crystal, long version
SEM video of the appearance of slip steps as slip begins on a previously undeformed single crystal of cadmium. Longer version of video 53 - From TLP: Slip in Single Crystals, http://www.msm.cam.ac.uk/doitpoms/tlplib/slip/videos.php
