Reusable bootstrap resources zend con 2010Hector Virgen
ZendCon 2010
This session demonstrates how to build configurable and reusable bootstrap resources powered entirely by application.ini. Covers basic and advanced bootstrapping techniques, sharing bootstrap resources between applications, and accessing resources from within your applications.
The Ministry of Basic Education (MINEDUB) ordered a diagnostic study on the organization and functioning of collegeswithin the framework of the G.T.T.C. reform process. The study carried out by Mrs. Marguerite Altet, a CIEP (French Centre for Educational Research) expert, and published in 2011, highlights numerous pedagogic gaps, namely:
- The absence of a sound curriculum, given that syllabuses are presented as a list of contents with 26 disciplines;
- The one-year course duration for GCE A/Lstudent-teachers is inadequate;
- The heterogeneous academic entry qualification of student-teachersleads to some shortcomings on
the part ofGCE O/L student-teachers at the end of the course;
- The lack of a synchronized programming of pedagogic activities (practicum and evaluation);
- An inadequate training as concernsthe different pedagogic reforms implemented in Basic Education.
From this crucial diagnosis confirmed by MINESEC officials, the Minister of Secondary Education with a view to improve on the quality of teachertraining for our basic educational system, decided to draw up new T.T.C.curricula taking into account the political vision advocated by the Head of State.
2. Characteristics of the curricula reviewed following the Competence-Based Approach
The new T.T.C. curriculum is drawn up following the Competence-Based Approach(CBA)in respect to the methodological requirements of the development of a curriculum. The process started with the writing of a Teacher‟s Referential of Professional Activities with the collaboration of field experts; this enabled designers to identify basic professional competences to be developed during the initial training of a teacher. The basic professional competences were presented in a Referential of Competences used by the editorial team as supporting document to draw up the current curriculum.
Therefore, this document remains a multidisciplinary curriculum which lays emphasis on common abilities otherwise referred to as “cross abilities” while integrating various practical aspects (simulation, practicum, various practical activities, case studies etc.)
The new T.T.C. curricula target the five domains of the contents taken from the former syllabuses. These domains are:
-Bilingual training;
-Didactics of Primary and Nursery school activities;
-Sciences of Education;
-Educational Technologies;
-Reinforced alternated practicum(teaching practice…)
The training content is the same for the three levels but its dosage takesinto consideration the entry qualification of student-teachers.

Cotton Candy Construction - Lot Build by Hurricane IslandheartHurricaneIslandheart
This is a lot I created for the Build-n-Share Candy Crush Challenge. http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/373316.page The Lot and the Sim in this slideshow will both be available for download. There are a lot of slides, but it was a lot of ground to cover for a 20x20 lot! Thanks for taking a look!

Essay about My Childhood Home
1. Dawn Cottage: Build and Share Week 54, All According to plan By AuroraDay(Aurora)
2. We’ll Start with the floor plan layout as requested in the brief. I added the closets when I built this house and customised them to make them look like closets.
3. This is what Dawn Cottage looks like zoomed in. Those who know Latin will realise that Aurora is Latin for Dawn. It’s a standing joke in my family.
4. Ignore the completely Random build tools, my camera shots are being annoying today. Anyway, I fenced around the bin and popped a gate in. To be honest I don’t think our sims would appreciate a great big bin stuck right in front of their doorway. I know I wouldn’t!
5. Here is where the mailbox is and if you will follow me this fenced path leads to the back of the house. There is actually supposed to be a tree there but it has faded while I am taking pictures!
6. You go through this gate here and follow the entire path along to the back of the house.
29. Here is the other side of the room, I believe the CC is transferable but if not, it is the Nola Bedroom Set by Angela at TSR which you may be able to find at Paysites Must be destroyed.
31. Here is a sink area, with a place for the ladies of the house to put on their make-up.
32. Over here is a toilet area near a window...but luckily it’s away from the prying eyes of the neighbours.
33. Finally, this is the bathtub in the master bathroom. I hope you enjoyed this tour and have many fun hours playing with Dawn Cottage. I also hope that your sims enjoy it!
