Tutorials / Etching Your Own Circuit Board
This tutorial will outline the process for etching your own circuit board. While breadboards are good for prototyping and perf boards are swell for creating a simple, robust circuit, etching your own circuit board provides the opportunity for inexpensive fabrication of more complex circuits. It allows you to create multiples of the same circuit, and your design is no longer tied to the grid of the perf board. This opens the door for creativity in the design of your circuitboard. 1.105 Free College Lectures

Programs | Hewlett Foundation
The Hewlett Foundation makes grants to solve social and environmental problems at home and around the world. Our grantees are working to reduce poverty in the developing world, curb carbon emissions that lead to climate change, and improve education for students in California and elsewhere, among many other valuable goals. While the goals of the Foundation are about problems that we're trying to solve, our Foundation is organized in such a way that grants are made from particular programs. We've tried to provide sufficient information about each program's grantmaking to give the visitor a comprehensive understanding of what we fund and why.

Learning Styles - Learning skills from MindTools
Understanding Your Learning Preference Understand different learning styles, with James Manktelow & Amy Carlson. Have you ever tried to learn something fairly simple, yet failed to grasp the key ideas? Or tried to teach people and found that some were overwhelmed or confused by something quite basic?

Did you ever question why the course that your friend said was so easy turned into a struggle for you? Do you notice that you and your roommate have different opinions on whether or not to have the radio on while you're studying? The reason behind some of these discrepancies may be differences in learning styles. What is a "learning style"? To put it simply, your learning style (or learning preference) is the way you tend to learn best.

The purpose of this inventory is to find out about your own study habits and attitudes.All thinking occurs within, and across, disciplines and domains of knowledge and experience, yet few students learn how to think well within those domains. Despite having taken many classes, few are able to think biologically, chemically, geographically, sociologically, anthropologically, historically, artistically, ethically, or philosophically. Students study literature, but do not think in a literary way as a result.
