Cluster: die Ordnung im Chaos. Von Rüdger Heins Cluster: die Ordnung im Chaos Von Rüdiger Heins Die Interaktion der beiden Gehirnhälften Das Handwerk des Clustering Vom Lösen der BlockadenVom Urknall zum Cluster Das Cluster im Textlabor Ein Übungsbeispiel Die Idee für eine Geschichte ist gut. Das Cluster gehört im Creative Writing (Creative Writing, auch Composition genannt, wird an Hochschulen gelehrt) zu den wirkungsvollsten Methoden, einen Text ins Fließen zu bringen. Der Autor nimmt ein leeres Blatt, legt es quer vor sich hin und schreibt in dessen Zentrum den Schlüsselbegriff für seine Idee. Die Interaktion der beiden Gehirnhälften Die visuelle Form des Clusterings ermöglicht dem Gehirn eine Korrespondenz mit der linken und der rechten Hemisphäre. Aber die rechte Hemisphäre alleine würde nicht ausreichen, um einen Text zu dem werden zu lassen, wie wir ihn gerne hätten. Das Handwerk des Clustering Vom Lösen der Blockaden Ein Cluster ist also mehr, als nur ein Handwerkszeug, das Texte abrufen kann. Vom Urknall zum Cluster Weiter: 3.
Creepy Gmail sem-es-london-_chinesebasket.pdf (application/pdf-Objekt) Die Staatlichen Seminare für Didaktik und Lehrerbildung (SSDL), die Pädagogischen Fachseminare und die Fachseminare für Sonderpädagogik unterstehen der Fachaufsicht des Kultusministeriums und der Dienstaufsicht des Regierungspräsidiums. Die Seminare haben die Kernaufgabe, auf der Basis der Ausbildungs- und Prüfungsordnungen des Kultusministeriums für die jeweiligen Lehrämter auszubilden. Die SSDL bereiten die angehenden Lehrkräfte im Studium und vor allem im Vorbereitungdienst auf ihren Beruf als Lehrerin oder Lehrer an der Schule vor - sie schlagen also die Brücke von der Wissenschaft zur Schulpraxis. A stateless language that Europe must embrace | Education | Guardian Weekly The language policy in the European Union is both ineffective and hypocritical, and its ideas of linguistic equality and multilingualism are costly and cumbersome illusions. Why have these illusions been kept up for so long? First, because the French with their traditionally superior position in Europe cannot accept the decline of their own linguistic power, second, because the politically-correct ideologies of some sociolinguists constantly fuel opposition against the idea of English as a European lingua franca and third, because powerful translators' lobbies fight for their raison d'tre. The translations produced in the world's largest translation bureau are taken as tokens for equality: what counts is that they exist, not what they are like - many EU officials doubt their accuracy and openly prefer to read the more reliable English and French originals. The EU's ostensible multilingualism sets it apart from other international organisations.
We Can Put an End to Word Attachments by Richard M. Stallman Don't you just hate receiving Word documents in email messages? Word attachments are annoying, but, worse than that, they impede people from switching to free software. Maybe we can stop this practice with a simple collective effort. All we have to do is ask each person who sends us a Word file to reconsider that way of doing things. Most computer users use Microsoft Word. But it hurts us, too, when they assume we use Word and send us (or demand that we send them) documents in Word format. For us users of free operating systems, receiving Word documents is an inconvenience or an obstacle. Many GNU users who receive Word documents try to find ways to handle them. Worst of all, it has already done so. When you receive a Word file, if you think of that as an isolated event, it is natural to try to cope by finding a way to read it. If we all do this, we will have a much larger effect. These replies are meant for individuals who send Word files. I am puzzled. John D.

The Art Instinct / aesthetics / anthropology / evolution / criticism / Denis Dutton / Senior finds imperfection in supercollider detector Xiaohang Quan ’09 was working on her senior thesis when she found a miscalculation in a detector attached to the world’s largest particle accelerator. Quan, a physics concentrator, traveled to Geneva, Switzerland, last week with physics professors Christopher Tully GS ’98, Jim Olsen and Daniel Marlow for the annual meeting of the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). This year, however, they also came to discuss Quan’s discovery with the designers of the hardware for the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment, which, as part of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), has the potential to revolutionize particle physics. In the hardware used to record and capture events in the LHC, she discovered errors that were leading to the appearances of double images because of particle streams known as jets. Quan’s thesis focuses on the various jet selection criteria for the LHC and finding which algorithms will be most efficient for analysis of the physics.
Are Academics Different? Last week’s column about Denis Rancourt, a University of Ottawa professor who is facing dismissal for awarding A-plus grades to his students on the first day of class and for turning the physics course he had been assigned into a course on political activism, drew mostly negative comments. The criticism most often voiced was that by holding Rancourt up as an example of the excesses indulged in by those who invoke academic freedom, I had committed the fallacy of generalizing from a single outlier case to the behavior of an entire class “Is the Rancourt case one of a thousand such findings this year, or it the most outlandish in 10 years?” (Jack, No. 88). It may be outlandish because it is so theatrical, but one could argue, as one reader seemed to, that Rancourt carries out to its logical extreme a form of behavior many display in less dramatic ways. Statements like this are likely to provoke the objection that “Academe should not be a Business or a Corporation” (No. 228, G.
How some military rabbis are trying to radicalize Israeli soldiers. - By Christopher Hitchens Recent reports of atrocities committed by Israeli soldiers in the course of the intervention in Gaza have described the incitement of conscripts and reservists by military rabbis who characterized the battle as a holy war for the expulsion of non-Jews from Jewish land. The secular Israeli academic Dany Zamir, who first brought the testimony of shocked Israeli soldiers to light, has been quoted as if the influence of such extremist clerical teachings was something new. This is not the case. Christopher Hitchens (1949-2011) was a columnist for Vanity Fair and the author, most recently, of Arguably, a collection of essays. I remember being in Israel in 1986 when the chief army "chaplain" in the occupied territories, Rabbi Shmuel Derlich, issued his troops a 1,000-word pastoral letter enjoining them to apply the biblical commandment to exterminate the Amalekites as "the enemies of Israel." The problem here is precisely that the rabbi was not making a "political" statement.
FALSE ALARM: Why Almost Everything We’ve Been Told About Global Warming is Misleading, Exaggerated, or Plain Wrong » Climate change: Learning to think like a geologist Paul MacRae, June 24, 2008 Most geologists aren’t part of Al Gore’s “100 per cent consensus” of scientists that humans are the principal cause of global warming and that we have to take drastic steps to deal with it. For example, in March 2008, a poll of Alberta’s 51,000 geologists found that only 26 per cent believe humans are the main cause of global warming. Forty-five per cent believe both humans and nature are causing climate change, and 68 per cent don’t think the debate is “over,” as Gore would like the public to believe. The position of the American Association of Petroleum Geologists is quite clear: The earth’s climate is constantly changing owing to natural variability in earth processes. Why do geologists tend to be skeptics? A geologist has a much longer perspective. Current climate conditions are not unusual Temperatures since 1860. It’s possible to look at a graph of the past century and conclude: “Oh, my God, the planet is burning up!” But what if we take a longer view? Notes
Klimawandel - Geologen ticken anders - Wissen Anzeige Geologen bemessen Klimaverschiebungen in langen Zeiträumen - in sehr langen. Was wir als dramatische Veränderungen wahrnehmen, ist für sie oft nur ein kurzfristiger Trend. Geologen pflegen ihren eigenen Umgang mit der Zeit. Die Erde aber ist 4550 Ma alt - sagt der Geologe. Die Gelassenheit des Geologen demonstriert Salomon Kroonenberg in seinem Buch "Der lange Zyklus", das unter dem Titel "Das menschliche Maß" zuerst in den Niederlanden erschienen ist und dort die Debatte um den globalen Klimawandel aufgemischt hat. Mit dem menschlichen Maß meint Kroonenberg unsere Wahrnehmung von Zeit, die allenfalls bis zur übernächsten Generation reicht. Die Prognosen des definitionsmächtigen Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change gehen bis zum Jahr 2100, erdgeschichtlich betrachtet ein lächerlich kurzer Zeitraum. Nun können achteinhalb Minuten ausreichen, um ein Lebewesen zu zerstören. Schwankungen des Kaspischen Meeres
