This document outlines how iPads can be leveraged for learning. It proposes using three apps - Blackboard Mobile, PDF-Notes, and Dropbox - to reduce paper usage and allow for easier document management and quick feedback. The keys to success are focusing on pedagogy, gaining support from IT, using fewer apps, and engaging students. Useful links are provided for exploring iPad integration further.
The document provides information about average wages, interest rates, food and commodity prices, automobile costs, housing prices, and the cost of Monopoly board games in the 1930s United States.

The document discusses the use of forms and conventions in the media product's narrative, sound, continuity and editing. Music is used to set the tone and pace of the thriller genre. The opening music signifies a fast-paced thriller with hospital sounds and a female voice to appeal to female audiences. Sound mixing and both diegetic and non-diegetic music are used to manipulate time and create tension. The narrative subverts expectations through nonlinear editing and a protagonist with dissociative identity disorder. Techniques like foreshadowing, red herrings and arbitrary signs are employed to establish mystery and intrigue.
Women in the Middle Ages had very limited roles and faced much discrimination. They were expected to focus on domestic tasks and childrearing. Some educated women became writers, musicians, or healers, but those in the latter role often faced persecution if accused of witchcraft. The powerful Catholic Church also exerted much control over people's lives, including harsh treatment of those deemed heretical.

From demystification to learner engagement: Doing education differentlyJacques Cool
This document discusses the changing landscape of education and teaching in today's digital world. It notes that the number of internet and social media users has grown significantly, with over 2.5 billion people online and 1.9 billion using social media. It emphasizes that teachers can no longer work in isolation, but must connect with other educators and experts. An effective teacher is always learning, uses technology and visuals effectively, allows students choice and creativity in projects, and links learning to real-world issues. The focus for teachers should be on pedagogy, content and understanding student contexts rather than just integrating new technologies. The goal is for every student to find their passion and want to come to school.

3) Her antagonist personality subverts expectations by being dressed in dark clothing and portrayed as a shadowy, demonic figure, unlike her normal self in light clothing.
