Describing pictures can be challenging but following some basic guidelines makes it easier. Focus on describing the key elements of the picture by discussing the subject, setting, and any important details. Try to be as objective as possible by noting what can actually be seen rather than interpreting or analyzing the image. Keep descriptions concise using only a few simple sentences.

Online Intercultural Exchange provides opportunities for students to develop transversal skills like navigating tools, managing identity, and understanding language and cultural differences through online interactions with others from different backgrounds. It involves information exchange, collaborative tasks, and comparative analysis activities. Frameworks have been developed for badging achievements in online intercultural exchange, drawing from typologies of telecollaborative tasks and the learning process.
Natural Disasters
This document defines and provides the pronunciation for several types of natural disasters: avalanche, hurricane, cyclone, earthquake, tsunami, tornado, forest fire, blizzard, drought, flood, and monsoon. It explains that an avalanche is a large mass of snow falling down a mountain, a hurricane is an extremely violent wind or storm, and a cyclone is a violent tropical storm where the air goes round and round. Earthquakes cause the ground to shake, tsunamis are huge waves caused by earthquakes that flow onto land, and tornadoes are tall columns of air spinning very fast. Forest fires are big fires that can destroy trees and houses, blizzards are very bad storms with snow and strong winds
Collaboration and innovation in the open ALT 2016
This document discusses an open educational project called WIHEA that aimed to take risks, share lessons, and promote open practice. The project team used shared courses and online groups through Warwick's learning platform and Google Apps to design a self-directed, wandering approach to learning called "flâneurism." By clicking links and exploring serendipitously, students developed digital literacies while mediating a cultural transition. The outcomes emphasized process over product and interest-led learning. Going forward, the project aims for even closer collaboration and embedding the approach more broadly.

The memorable life of Amelia Earhart
Amelia Earhart was born in Kansas in 1897. She became the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean in 1932. Earhart also founded The Ninety-Nines, an organization for female pilots, in 1929. In 1937, Earhart embarked on a flight to circumnavigate the globe, but disappeared over the central Pacific Ocean near Howland Island during the final leg of the journey, despite extensive search efforts. Neither Earhart nor her plane were ever found.

Prince & Pauper
Mark Twain was an American author born in 1835 in Missouri. He had experiences working as a steamboat pilot and journalist that influenced his writing. Two of his most famous works were The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, which drew from his experiences growing up in Hannibal, Missouri and working on the Mississippi River. These novels typified Twain's style of writing realistically about things he knew firsthand. Even when writing other works set in different time periods and places, like The Prince and the Pauper, Twain drew from his own experiences of boys gradually losing their innocence.

The innovation diffusion process outlines 5 steps: (1) Knowledge, where an individual learns of an innovation; (2) Persuasion, where an opinion is formed; (3) Decision, deciding whether to adopt; (4) Implementation, using the innovation; and (5) Confirmation, deciding continued use. An individual's decision is influenced by perceived characteristics of the innovation like relative advantage and complexity, as well as their own characteristics. The process explains how innovations are adopted over time through communication channels within a social system.

Floods occur when an area receives too much rain or water, causing the water levels to rise over the land. They can be caused by heavy rainfall or other factors. Floods affect the environment, economy, and people. They pollute water, destroy businesses and infrastructure, and can kill people or force them to evacuate damaged homes. Many regions around the world experience frequent flooding, including parts of Brazil, North and South America, Europe, Australia, Asia, and Mexico. While floods are a natural disaster, their impacts are exacerbated by factors like increased rainfall and lack of adequate flood control measures. Prevention methods include building more canals, dams, and channels to redirect excess water.

Scientific Method - Portfolio Presentation Example
The student conducted an experiment to determine if water has the same mass in liquid and solid form. They weighed ice cubes and then melted the ice and weighed the liquid water. In two of the three trials, the masses were equal, supporting the hypothesis. However, in one trial the liquid water had a slightly higher mass, possibly due to sources of error like not fully drying the beaker. The student concluded that while the masses are nearly equal, more trials could provide more definitive evidence.

This document discusses the causes and effects of droughts based on evidence from various sources. It identifies the main causes of droughts as lack of rain and high temperatures. The effects mentioned are migration, loss of homelands, and economic and agriculture problems. As an example, it discusses the Dust Bowl that occurred in the Great Plains. Prevention methods include storing water, watering plants/trees regularly, and protecting water resources. Maps and graphs are presented showing drought intensity in different years and locations around the world. The conclusion is that lack of rainfall over long periods of time leads to droughts, and that droughts could increase significantly over the next 100 years.
