A 2 minutes presentation regarding to the design concepts for BC Hydro Innovation Challenge...
The challenge question is "How to foster an energy conservation culture in British Columbia?"
Digital presentations are increasingly important within schools. "Death by PowerPoint" is also common in schools. Technology and graphic design are famously neutral. It is people that are boring! It is time to reflect on our use of digital presentations and perhaps explore different approaches. It is also time to give some consideration to the design of the individual slides and the most effective ways of getting our message across. Enjoy!
If you are a geography teacher and you have the time, please consider filling in the questionnaire which accompanies this presentation and return it to alandohertyuk@yahoo.co.uk. Much appreciated. Thanks!

The last ice sheet to completely cover Scotland (the Devensian ice sheet) began to melt and its margins retreat about 20,000 years ago as summer sunlight in the northern hemisphere increased. Over the following 10,000 years, the average global temperature rose by 3.50C and most of the Devensian ice sheet melted in the “Great Thaw”. In Scotland, however, a seemingly contradictory readvance of the ice took place. Around 12,900 years ago, the temperatures in Scotland plummeted and remained low for about 1300 years. This glacial period, known as the Younger Dryas, is thought to have been caused by huge quantities of meltwater escaping into the North Atlantic and closing down the North Atlantic Ocean Conveyor.
The evidence for this readvance was first analysed and appreciated in the broad hummocky lowlands to the south of Loch Lomond and this became the type area for the readvance .
A general introduction to the Quaternary Ice Age in Scotland, delivered to the Whitburn Probus on the 30th May, 2012. This went down very well and also started a discussion on how you could appraise the quality of the different landscapes inherited from the passage of the ice. This set me thinking...

Getting really fed up with the uneven playing field so thinking of making them all into videos and using Vimeo as a more stable and realistic platform. Let me know what you think on Flickr. Now if the Guardian got rid of their stupid headers and footers....
Anyway enjoy this one if you are a geographer, geologist or just interested in our planet.
Finding fault in Hollister, CaliforniaAlan Doherty
We’re going to be looking at strike-slip (or transform) (OK sideways!) faults and at one specific example in particular – the Calaveras Fault in Central California. We’re going to find this fault and then follow its trace in Hollister, California. We then go in search of the big picture. Enjoy!
The most extensive basaltic plateau in the British Isles has its own charms. Not least, the exploration and analysis of the wonderful trap landscape. Enjoy
Musings on the changing character of Britain's cultural landscape. It is a plea to the retail shed builders to look at themselves and begin to respect their potential customers. It is a warning to the potential customers of ASP-Host and Web Solutions. It is a plea to the Law Society to put the upholding of the law at the top of their agenda rather than the protection of their cartel. The presentation is amusing yet serious. If you like it, spread the word and pass it on. Thanks.
Twucwuc land is a new acronym for scamland. WULs have been around for a while. Fast-buck Britain and Buckfast Britain are the same place. An invoice reminder should be an invoice reminder and should never be post-dated. Take care on your journey.
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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
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.
