Slides to support a workshop on visual thinking across the curriculum at the IntegratEd Conference. Portland, Oregon, February 2013.
Over 80% of our brains are used interpreting visuals. It seems a waste not to take advantage this powerful channel into the minds of our students. What sorts of ways can a single image be used to tell stories and explore complex ideas in Math, Science, Language Arts or Languages classrooms? What could we do with a series of pictures? How can we do this beyond the time and space of the classroom walls and have our students generate a bank of powerful visuals to inspire future students to create even more powerful learning imagery?
In this hands on session participants will mash up their ideas with powerful images, painlessly share them with the group and spend the lion’s share of our time together thinking deeply and discussing our shared vision for what real learning looks like in our classrooms. We’ll touch on ideas of ethical and responsible use of technology, creative commons and some thoughts about visual design.
Bring your camera enabled mobile device. We’re gonna use it. And show you how to take better pictures in the process.

Extension services strategies in adaptation to climate change in oyo state, n...Alexander Decker
The document discusses extension service strategies for adapting to climate change in Oyo State, Nigeria. It finds that farmers experienced impacts of climate change like drought, changes in rainfall patterns, and decreased water availability. To cope, farmers adopted strategies recommended by extension agents, including changing crops grown, conservation agriculture, and early warning systems. The roles of extension agents were seen as important for building farmers' capacity to adapt, through demonstrations and sharing innovations. However, low funding, changing policies, and lack of access to information constrained adoption of adaptation strategies. The study concludes that more public education on adaptation is needed to support extension agents' work in mitigating climate impacts.

The text discusses Brazil's recent elections in which electronic voting machines allowed results to be announced quickly. However, the country's courts were slower, ruling one day before the election that votes for barred candidates should be set aside. As a result, the final results are still uncertain, as 11 million votes went to ineligible candidates. Politicians can appeal their barred status, and if successful by December 31st, could replace candidates currently declared victors. Elections for lower congressional seats are also complicated, as surplus votes for candidates get passed to allies, but the courts have yet to determine if candidates can be elected this way if disqualified. Some candidates like the clown Tiririca, who won over 1.3 million votes despite

This document discusses various types of photography and their applications. Advertising and promotional photography aim to sell products by portraying them in a controlled, appealing light. Fashion photography uses slim models and lighting/editing to make clothing look desirable. Documentary photography captures real situations without control, like war photos. Portraiture instructs subjects in poses and uses lighting/backdrops to frame faces. High street studios take posed family photos in studios with artificial lighting and editing. Architecture photography uses lenses and lighting to capture buildings in different styles. Illustrative photos accompany information books to help readers understand subjects. Medical photography accurately records diseases/procedures without editing. Fine art explores various subjects through the artist's vision, with editing ranging from minor

LAMPS aims to establish a network of long-term monitoring plots across Australian ecosystems to study key ecological questions. It will integrate existing fine-scale research with larger-scale mandated monitoring.

An initial workshop brought together researchers to plan LAMPS and identify major ecological questions and data needs. The network will be overseen by researchers from University of Adelaide, Australian National University, and James Cook University.
