The project will be carried out throughout the semester where students will be assigned to measure and document
a historical / architecturally significant or heritage building and translate all the data into a set of drawings. Each
group will have to only measure one particular building assigned by the course coordinator.
Evaluating an Open Research project: Balancing the imperative to share with e...SarahG_SS
A poster presented at the joint International Consortium for Educational Development (ICED) and Higher Education Learning and Teaching Association of Southern Africa (HELTASA) Conference 2016 held at the University of Cape Town from 23-25 November 2016. This poster reports on the evaluation of the Research on Open Educational Resources for Development (ROER4D) project, a project that is commitment to open research. Some of the emerging benefits and drawbacks of conducting an evaluation on an open research project are highlighted.
The Win Strategy™ is the Parker business system and was introduced in 2001. It has been instrumental in transforming the company’s operations and optimizing performance. The Win Strategy has served Parker exceptionally well and many of its core principles will remain in place. However, under new leadership, the company has reached an opportune time to set a new course for Parker in a fast-changing and increasingly challenging global environment. The new Win Strategy will position the company to achieve top quartile financial performance among its diversified industrial proxy peer companies. Over time, executing the new Win Strategy will ensure Parker is on track to achieve its vision of Engineering Your Success.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The purpose of this research paper aims to conduct a thorough study on the implementation
of vernacular Malay architecture in 8D House. It also aims to investigate how these design
strategies help to reduce solar heat gain and achieve thermal comfort in this building. Due to
the rise of commercial developments in Bukit Damansara that contributes to the increase of
thermal heat, the 8D House was designed by architect Dr Tan Loke Mun to curb this climatic
issue to improve the thermal comfort for the users in the building. To assist the validation of
research, literature reviews based on various sources such as books and online research on the
researched building and thermal comfort were conducted to complete this case study paper.
The vernacular Malay architecture is greatly influenced by climate and weather and it is the
most appropriate for thermal comfort in Malaysia’s climate. 8D House is efficiently designed
to suit this local climatic requirements using raw local materials such as masonry, concrete
and timber. 8D House has a perfect rectangular building form which makes it easier to lose
internal heat to the outside. The building is also orientated with the long façades are arranged
to face the direction of incoming prevailing wind. Landscaping such as vegetation and water
features are carefully placed in relation to sun paths and prevailing winds. Vegetation helps
shade the north-east façade, preventing direct solar radiation. Hardscape is shaded from direct
solar radiation while softscape is used to absorb heat and reduce ground temperature. 8D
house uses large insulated overhanging canopy roof to control the penetration of solar
radiation. The roof tends to be under lighted to give a psychological effect of coolness as
strong light is often mentally associated with heat. Its roof was constructed with lightweight
metal decking in light grey colour and has an air gap that act as a barrier to heat flow. This
bungalow also controls glare from the open sky and surroundings by using metal louvered
sun screens to wrap the entire mass of the living spaces. Louvers are also extended from the
façade to allow air ventilation and different lengths vary on different sides of the façade,
where facades that face more solar radiation have longer louvers. Hence, it has come to a
conclusion that the application of these design strategies in reference to vernacular
architecture does reduce solar heat gain and reduce thermal comfort in 8D House.
