This document discusses citizen science and game-based education. It describes how citizen science projects can engage billions of volunteers to assist with or lead research. Game-based learning is presented as a way to teach topics in a fun and engaging manner by embedding curriculum within research-relevant games and simulations. Long term goals include developing a global crowd computing platform and remote laboratory to further mass collaboration on scientific problems and experiments.
The opening scene of The Woman in Black establishes an eerie atmosphere through its use of generic horror conventions. We see three young girls playing with dolls accompanied by unsettling music, foreshadowing danger. Their strange behavior and a mysterious figure in black hook the audience to learn more. Iconography like screaming and the veil associated with death effectively set the horror tone for the film. The target audience is likely those 25 and under who enjoy horror genres, and the film attracted viewers through its young actors like Daniel Radcliffe from Harry Potter.
