This document discusses various data transformations that can be used to satisfy assumptions of normality, homogeneity of variance, and linearity. It describes how to compute logarithmic, square root, inverse, and square transformations in SPSS. For each transformation, it provides details on specifying the target variable name, selecting the appropriate function or formula, and adding any necessary constants to the values. The purpose of these transformations is to modify non-normal, non-linear, or heteroscedastic data to better meet the assumptions of parametric statistical tests.
This document provides an introduction to behaviour therapy and cognitive-behaviour therapy for psychiatric registrars. It discusses the theoretical bases of these therapies, distinguishing characteristics, suitable disorders, behavioural analysis techniques, and examples of specific behavioural and cognitive-behavioural strategies for treating anxiety, depression, chronic pain, and other conditions. The document is intended to educate registrars on the principles and techniques of these learning theory-based therapies.

Overview of the Implementing Innovation CourseBrad Power
Leading high tech companies (such as Amazon and Google) are achieving a new standard of performance, combining operational excellence and innovation simultaneously. Established companies (such as GE and IBM) are introducing innovation into their traditional management approaches to similarly achieve growth and cost reduction. We apply the lens of process management to examine the operating model which makes this possible, and introduce a number of topics covered in our course:
What is continuous innovation?
How to structure experiments?
How to create an environment for innovation?

This document discusses cost segregation, which is a strategy to maximize tax benefits for commercial property owners through accelerated depreciation. It can generate substantial tax savings and increased cash flow by reallocating components of real property to have shorter depreciation schedules. An engineering firm offers cost segregation studies using an engineering-based method to comprehensively analyze a property and identify all qualifying assets. This approach aims to maximize tax benefits within IRS guidelines. The firm has performed over 10,000 studies and can provide an initial no-cost analysis and proposal for property owners.
This document provides instructions for using the Virtual Telescope Project, which allows remote control of a robotic telescope. It describes how to connect via software, control the telescope to point at objects, take test and final images using camera software, and receive saved images. The system is designed for amateur astronomers and requires registration for paid access, but offers the first hour for free to become familiar with the process.
CoExistence: Today’s Performance Engine and Tomorrow’s Innovation EnergyBrad Power
There are four powerful and competing forces operating in all organizations today: (1) the turbulence of daily work, (2) incremental process improvement, (3) sustaining innovations, and (4) disruptive innovations. All are essential but truly different in most respects. In a perfect environment, with finite resources, an organization would have all operating together in harmony, with the right proportion of resources devoted to each.
How do you get the balance right in your organization between today and tomorrow?

Ways in which the organization was able to make process improvements stick
The document describes a 21st Century Skills Map created by The Partnership in cooperation with the National Science Teachers Association to illustrate the intersection between 21st Century Skills and the core subject of Science. The map was developed through extensive research and feedback from educators and business leaders. It provides examples of how skills like critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication can be integrated into Science learning at various grade levels. The goal is to help students advance their learning in core subjects and prepare for the future.
The document provides guidance for evaluating the EU-UNAWE astronomy awareness programme. It outlines domains of learning including motivation, scientific skills, knowledge, and intercultural attitudes. Evaluation methods are suggested to gather evidence from children and teachers. For children, options include pre-and post-activity drawings, observations during games or activities, and optional surveys. For teachers, a survey is provided. The goal is to demonstrate the programme's impacts in a way that combines data from different locations and activities.
Astronomy curricula for different ages and cultural backgroundsJacekKupras
This document outlines astronomy curricula for different age groups and cultural backgrounds developed by EUNAWE Germany. It provides guidelines for teaching astronomy concepts to children ages 4-10 in a developmentally appropriate way that links both mythical and scientific thinking. Younger children ages 4-6 focus on observational skills and classification through stories and pretend play. Children ages 6-8 learn about the earth, sun, moon and planets through models and explanations while inspiring curiosity in astronomy. For ages 8-10, the curriculum emphasizes abstract thinking through hands-on observations, models, explanations and biographies of astronomers while introducing more advanced topics like other solar systems. The overall approach aims to foster interest in science, global citizenship and intercultural understanding.

EU-Universe Awareness uses astronomy to encourage children's interest in science and technology and foster global citizenship. Its Universe in a Box program provides hands-on activities and materials to teach difficult astronomy concepts simply to children ages 4-10. The program aims to help children understand their place in the greater universe through activities on the moon, earth, sun, planets, and constellations while promoting respect for other cultures and environmental stewardship. Universe in a Box uses a modular approach with inquiry-based learning to gradually expand children's worldview.
Curiosity is a car-sized Mars rover launching in 2011 to explore Gale Crater using a variety of scientific instruments. It will characterize the planet's geology and climate, assess biological potential, and prepare for future human exploration. Curiosity will use a sky crane maneuver for the first precise landing on Mars and employ a nuclear power source to investigate rocks and soil with tools including cameras, a laser, spectrometers, and a drill. The rover is expected to operate for one Martian year, relaying data to Earth via orbiters to further understand if Mars could have supported microbial life.
The document contains details of images taken by camera 3644 to 3697 from March 22, 2012 to April 6, 2012. It lists the date, time, orbit number, camera status and location photographed for each image taken. Many entries note the camera system was unavailable and list locations in Africa, Australia, South America and elsewhere.
This document provides an introduction to a guide for teaching computational thinking concepts through creative computing with Scratch.
