The document proposes biofuels as a more eco-friendly alternative aviation fuel. It discusses using algae and biomass to produce biofuel. Algae can be grown and processed to extract oil that is then processed into biofuel. Biomass fuel can be produced from waste materials through gasification processes. Potential benefits include reduced CO2 emissions, diversified fuel supply, and economic and social gains for developing areas. The proposal argues that biofuels could help support greener aviation in the future.
The document discusses the design and validation process for a crankshaft. It begins with an overview of crankshafts and their function in converting linear piston motion to rotational motion in engines. It then outlines the 5 main steps in the design and validation process: 1) conceptual design, 2) process analysis and selection, 3) testing, 4) production, and 5) quality improvement. Key aspects of each step like dimensions, stresses, fatigue testing, and hardening processes are covered. The goal is to take an initial design concept and improve it using analysis, testing, manufacturing, and standards to validate the design.
This document provides instructions for recording, editing, and publishing podcasts using Audacity software. The key steps are:
1. Download and install Audacity, LAME MP3 encoder, and iTunes. Use an external microphone connected to the computer to record audio.
2. In Audacity, click record and stop to record segments, and use editing tools like cut and paste to rearrange the audio. Additional effects can be added.
3. Import background music files and edit the tracks to incorporate music into the podcast.
4. Save the project as an MP3 file, then add pictures using the iTunes interface to create a visual podcast experience for listeners.

The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like anxiety and depression.
This document provides step-by-step instructions for using the Chekhov mobile phone app to build and publish a story. The app allows users to write stories, add pages and images, record audio narration for each page and word, preview the finished story, and then publish it for worldwide distribution. The process involves naming the story, selecting publication settings, writing pages with text and images, recording narration, previewing the story, submitting it for review and publication, and having the approved story distributed through the app store.

2013 Partners in Learning Innovation workshop session 5SchoolNet SA
The document provides instructions for an innovation workshop activity where participants are asked to brainstorm and create their own learning activity. They are prompted to consider how to incorporate ICT, collaboration, knowledge construction, self-regulation, skilled communication, and real-world problem solving related to topics they will be teaching. Participants are then instructed to upload their proposed learning activity details to a shared online forum for others to see.
This document contains a series of tweets from #schoolnetsa11, which was an education technology conference in South Africa. [1] Attendees shared information about sessions on tools like Glogster and Turnitin, [2] discussed building online learning communities and using blogs and wikis in the classroom, and [3] highlighted the potential of technologies like Google Apps, Skype, and online math resources to enhance teaching and learning.

Transforming Education with 21st Century Skills and ICT Literacy:
In the education sector, there has been a growing movement toward infusing 21st
century skills into teaching. Driven by organizations around the world, this trend is more than a passing fad, and has caught the attention of those training and equipping teachers for the digital-age classroom. 21st century skills are what today’s students and graduates need to compete, and succeed, in today’s global workforce. There are a series of concepts and themes that go beyond the conventional to teach safe and effective technology integration and application skill sets. Whether you are a professor, an administrator, an instructor, a trainer or a future teacher, you must understand 21st century skills to be effective. So are you wondering exactly what 21st Century Skills and ICT Literacy's are all about? Are you trying to determine what steps to take to begin bringing 21st Century Skills into your classroom projects infused with Information, Communication and Technology (ICT) literacy?
