Written college examination finally over!

Posted on November 19, 2008 in Shockwave macromedia

Last Saturday, I sat the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) written examination for the fellowship. Now, I have only the clinical examination in May 2007 and assuming that I pass both and gain my fellowship, I will technically be a GP. Although I am glad that one hurdle is past, I can only say that the written examination was long and painful, and in my humble opinion, unduly so. It was in two parts; a three hour short answer paper in the morning, followed by a four hour multiple choice paper in the afternoon. One has to question whether a seven hour examination actually provides any more information than something that is shorter. Then, there were the entirely stupid questions like the multiple choice question asking for the antibiotic of choice for Legionella pneumonia. Frankly, if one of my patients had Legionella , the local public health unit and infectious diseases department would be jumping on the patient, I would discuss with my local microbiologist first before commencing treatment, not to mention that they would probably be admitted into hospital. Insofar as the management of Legionella pneumonia in general practice, the choice of antibiotic is frankly one of the least important aspects. Anyway, four weeks to go until the clinical examination and then FREEDOM! cheap oem software buy software

instructional software design project

Posted on November 18, 2008 in Dreamweaver extensions

I submitted the following article to the Australian Maths Teacher Journal in 1994 but it was rejected for publication. The note I received back said that my students hadn't really achieved much learning in Fractions. I still think this was a very worthwhile Project and that the reviewer didn't take into account all of the meta-learning that happened. The approach used is still relevant today but it does require a high skill level for the teacher in a variety of areas - programming skills and managing a complex learning environment. The article also includes a comprehensive explanation of the "instructional software design project" approach which was pioneered by Idit Harel and Seymour Papert and which still draws positive reviews today. Anyway, the era of paper journals is over. I can publish what I want. You, the reader can ignore, critique or praise. Education Software: Designed by Kids, for Kids - link to full article written by Bill Kerr in 1994 Abstract Students at the Year 8 level used LogoWriter software to design computer screens to teach Year 3/4 students Fractions. Students were set the task of doing transformations between words, symbols and pictures using LogoWriter. They recorded their experiences in a journal and identified problems they encountered and solutions to those problems. They helped each other solve problems in Fractions, design and computer programming. Outcomes from this learning sequence included expressive writing about mathematics, improved scores in a Fraction test, improved fluency in Logo programming, improved self management skills, increased cognitive resilience (overcoming frustration and not giving up), improved time management, and increased faith by the students in their own thinking patterns. Students remained motivated and interested in the Fractions topic for a 7 week block using this approach. The culture of mathematics was perceived by the students to be different and more interesting than traditional textbook maths. Some students dropped in at recess and lunch to work on their projects. The final combined software product is a useful piece of educational software that can be utilised by other teachers for diagnostic purposes as well as being an exemplar of what can be achieved with LogoWriter when it is used in this way. Conclusion Teachers face the task everyday of how to make their subjects relevant and interesting to their students and this is seen to be a particular problem with maths. One way to look at this is from the point of view of objects to think with. The teacher and students co-construct a learning environment that is replete with "objects to think with". These "objects" include: The challenge of teaching others and designing screens for this purpose using Logowriter The structure of fractions and their transformations (words, symbols, pictures) Other students, eg. best friends, class experts, the Year 3/4 students Teacher (Is he/ she approachable, friendly and skilled?) Journal reflections Taken together these objects represent the ISDP (Instructional Software Design Project) Harel and Papert (1990) argue that some materials are better with regard to the following criteria: appropriability (some things lend themselves better than others to being made one's own) evocativeness (some materials are more apt than others to precipitate personal thought) integration (some materials are better carriers of multiple meaning and multiple concepts) When used in the way described above LogoWriter is a most effective learning medium to think about Fractions and Design according to these criteria.

Spelling reform

Posted on November 18, 2008 in Buy adobe photoshop

I’m pretty interested tween spelling reform, at least theoretically. I’m fairly intolerant of inelegant solutions, to boot English spelling certainly is. However, I’m along pretty attached to really, you be schooled, for able to aim , so I acknowledge this it would be pretty annoying to appliance reform halfway reality. Along the upside, it is not unreasonable to envisage manifold matter transformation filters that could simply be written to allow round-trip translation medially old spelling too new spelling. The first shanty I overhear just now generally spelling reform, by Justin B. Rye, is a Oddly informal designate containing a point-by-point refutation of the lurking arguments against the whole thing. He like refutes arguments not previously materialized. Anyway, it’s a titanic introduction, plus fluently compulsatory. His anti-Esperanto leaf is inordinate for nest egg. A adventitious spelling regeneration The simplest, most coherent uniformity I’ve seen materialized (admittedly, I haven’t seen frequent, nor looked into particle among troops :) ) is described somewhere smart money spellingsociety.org, knit together from Wikipedia. The solutions there salvation checking spelling inconsistencies over lots as within reach infinity including acknowledging the fact that a possibly “ideal” intention would be variety and far cry to be adopted closed the community. It’s including in fact depleted separating keeping phonetics out of the whole hasten, which can be an easy target seeing fraction spelling reform motive. A illustration, settled from the above, is shown below. Granted, it’s unequal at first Showboat, but once you fathom the habits the learning is empty tied up English currently is not. The advantages, theoretically, are persuasive: excepting intellection potentiality used overcoming English’s idiosyncrasies. Which weapon quicker teaching since kids.

typepad questions

Posted on November 18, 2008 in Studio 8

So as I’ve written in here previously I’ve been toying with the possibility of switching to a typepad account and hosting my blog on my own domain as www.ComfortableShoesStudio.com, which is a domain that I already own. So I’ve already put that into process. I’ve purchased the typepad account, and set things up at my domain host and currently your able to see a basic version of my blog at ComfortableShoesStudio.com It won’t be stable for 14 days or so while I evaluate how much I like typepad or dislike it. So far I like it just fine. However I realized right after I went through all that trouble that I managed to miss that Blogger offers the same damn service, for free. So I’m debating the need for the typepad account. I have a 14 day trial period to determine if I like the service or not, after that I’m paying. So the major discussion in my head is whether or not I like the service typepad offers. I’ve heard a lot of good things about it, I’ve been pretty happy with blogger, so I’m not sure a switch is a good idea or not. So for now I’m posting posts to both accounts. cheap oem software buy software

The discomfort of strangers - great piece

Posted on November 17, 2008 in Adobe photoshop cs2 free trial

By Sean Coughlan BBC News It's a crowded train in central London, and I'm sitting opposite an Asian man carrying what looks like a large laptop bag. Is it a coincidence that no one else is sitting near us? Is it an accident that he's pushed out his corporate ID card so that it's clearly visible over his jacket, hanging like the open page of a passport? Public transport can be a world of unspoken signals and gestures - but am I right in thinking that he looks self-conscious, sometimes burying his face in his arms as though asleep? When that woman getting into the carriage half-turned towards us and then moved away, was that a deliberate decision, or was it a random commuter choice? How would it feel to have someone literally turning their back on you? Mind-games I change Tube lines and in the next train I'm sitting close to a woman wearing Islamic dress. But this time, all the seats are filled around her, and the atmosphere feels relaxed. What's going on in the thoughts of passengers? What judgements are they making? It's a mind-game being played out all over the Tube network, and indeed on many trains and buses throughout the country. It's performed in silence, with people unsure of their neighbours' motives and guilty about their own feelings of suspicion. Following the London bomb attacks, there have been stories swapped all over the capital of people switching seats because of "suspicious" passengers. And targets of that suspicion have talked about their sense of frustration at the unsubtle attention of other travellers. Even though people say little when they're travelling, there's plenty going on inside - fears of danger, changed routes, calculations to avoid risks, guilt at making stereotypical assumptions, anger at being unfairly distrusted. Stopped carrying rucksacks In the rather unreal atmosphere of familiar places facing unfamiliar threats, people are taking note of actions and appearances they wouldn't usually see. Hundreds of e-mails sent in to the BBC News website show how, in the uneasy mood on public transport, we're thinking all kinds of unspoken thoughts. There are flickers of bigotry and thinly-disguised racism, but there are also convincingly understated descriptions of people's edginess - and examples of how it is changing people's behaviour, including a number who say they have stopped taking Tube trains. Marcus, who says his family are Greek-Cypriot, has devised a strategy to avoid "odd looks" on the Tube (which he attributes to his Mediterranean appearance). To make himself seem non-threatening, he now wears a Make Poverty History wristband and makes a point of reading the Economist. "Whilst this sounds ridiculous it does reassure people around me. Of course, the whole thing is ridiculous but these are ridiculous times we are living in," he writes. An Asian reader says fears about what people are thinking have stopped him carrying a rucksack. "I do not take my rucksack to work anymore, which had my lunch and work shirt. I would rather wear a dirty shirt left at work than be looked at suspiciously. I also wear a T-shirt to work now, as I am afraid to wear too much, after the shooting," he writes. There are also people who have stopped wearing their MP3 players or iPods because of worries about trailing wires or not hearing orders from the police. Empty seat Being on the receiving end of such a hostile atmosphere has persuaded Leila, a white convert to Islam, to stop travelling by Tube altogether. "I sensed people's fear of me because of my Muslim dress. Sometimes people even preferred to stand rather than sit by me, leaving an empty seat next to me." Hindu and Sikh readers have also written to say they have experienced the same sense of rejection. "As I got on the tube with my rucksack, a fellow passenger saw me, waited a second then got up, to wait on the platform for the next train," writes Dev. Violence This distrust between travellers is a phenomenon that feeds on itself, says psychologist Gary Fitzgibbon, from the north London-based consultancy, Fitzgibbon Associates. "You've got a strange effect here. Everybody's awareness of a threat is raised - and everyone is looking round suspiciously. So they're looking at each other - and what they observe is people looking at them suspiciously, which immediately raises their awareness that this person might be a threat. "You can get very anxious situations arising - and in the extreme it could lead to violence." Mr Fitzgibbon says fear is a natural response to a threat - but the prolonged media coverage, and the way that people continue to talk about the bombings, can generate a response that is greater than the actual threat that exists. And amid such fears, he says that people can tend to seek people more like themselves and to avoid those who are different. Such a reaction, already witnessed by people sending in e-mails, would threaten what a worried reader described as the capital's "multi-cultural mini-world". ------- And this is the outcome of terrorism - less tolerance and understanding. It seems counter-intuitive. Rather than a sympathetic view of the terrorists' world view, people are reacting quite rationally. We forget today's European tolerance of "others" is quite recent - the holocaust was only 50 some years ago. Threats like the London bombings might rekindle all kinds of behaviors. buy software cheap oem software
