The workshop aimed to ease faculty transition to online writing instruction. During a five day summer workshop, faculty would be introduced to recent pedagogies and best practices for online writing instruction. The workshop agenda covered establishing course goals, organizing content delivery through the course management system, engaging students through synchronous and asynchronous methods, facilitating collaboration through tools like peer review and group work, assessing student writing and addressing plagiarism. The need for the workshop was addressed due to faculty resistance to technologies and resulting poor online teaching practices. The workshop emphasized applying pedagogy-driven practices like process scripts and scaffolding to promote student engagement and selecting technologies to support writing instruction.
This document outlines plans for a proposed multimodal composition course at a mid-sized Midwestern university. The course would integrate traditional print literacies with new technology-based literacies and address issues of rhetoric, social implications of technology, and making literacy practices more visible. It would be organized in three units around blogs, wikis, and visual rhetoric. The goal is for the course to bridge academic and new media discourses, develop multiple literacies, and critique the social aspects of digital technologies.
Nanotechnology involves manipulating and controlling materials at the nanoscale, which is approximately 1 to 100 nanometers. It has applications in many areas such as electronics, energy, medicine, and water filtration. Some key benefits of nanotechnology include developing stronger and lighter materials, more effective cancer treatments, and improved solar cells and membranes for water filtration that remove particles down to a few nanometers in size. The future of nanotechnology involves further development of self-assembly techniques to build complex structures at the nanoscale.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help boost feelings of calmness and well-being.
The 3-year-old Ryan wants to play with someone but only a "human kid" like his 5-year-old friend Josh. Ryan sees mom, Josh, and the dog Teddy as potential playmates but understands Teddy is neither a kid nor human. This shows Ryan is developing an understanding of different categories of beings. Development results from the interaction between biological factors and environmental experiences over time. Nature and nurture work together to shape cognitive development through complex dynamic systems rather than isolated stages.
Distance education relies on technology to connect students and teachers from different locations. It requires more planning, time and money compared to traditional classroom learning. Students in distance education need different study and communication skills. Distance education delivery can involve various levels from single mode institutions to virtual universities and involves different media types from text to artifacts. Effective distance education requires considering student and instructor characteristics as well as inputs like course design and technology when evaluating outputs like student satisfaction and achievement.

Thiazide diuretics like hydrochlorothiazide are a known risk factor for hyponatremia in the elderly. Three articles were reviewed to identify specific risk factors:
1) The odds of developing hyponatremia were 3.87 times higher in patients over 70 years old compared to those under 70.
2) Independent risk factors included lower body weight, lower serum potassium levels, older age, and use of the thiazide indapimide.
3) Elderly hypertensive women over 75 years old faced up to 16 times higher odds of diuretic-induced hyponatremia compared to younger women. Daily hydrochlorothiazide doses averaged

Context-aware mobile computing allows mobile applications to take advantage of contextual information about the user's environment to provide better services. This literature review explores the evolution of context-aware technologies and their impact on society. Key developments include location sensing technologies like GPS and WiFi that provide context data, as well as augmented reality projects like Google Glass and Project Tango that give mobile devices a 3D understanding of space. Context-aware software like Google Now uses this information to deliver the right data to users at the appropriate time.
This document discusses mobile augmented reality technologies. It begins by defining augmented reality and how mobile AR overlays digital information onto the real world viewed through a camera. It then discusses the hardware capabilities of modern smartphones that enable AR applications like cameras, sensors, and high-resolution displays. It also reviews several open-source and proprietary AR software development kits (SDKs) and tools that facilitate creating AR applications. Examples are given of many existing AR applications across different domains.
