As a kid, I was sure that we’d have flying cars and self-drying jackets a la Back to the Future II. Recently BLDGBLOG took a look at a series of postcards created by French artist Villemard in 1910 called “Utopie” which provided a glimpse of the future … all the way to the year 2000. BLDBLOG, being an architecture blog, was most fascinated by the picture above in which an architect sits in a box and commands his robot workers to assemble a building by pushing knobs and dials.
It’s actually not that crazy–a pair of Swiss architects are essentially trying to develop the same thing. When I first saw this picture, I laughed out loud. Teleconferencing looks so much cooler in alternate 2000 than it does now. Oh no, the sky cops! This picture, titled “A Chemical Dinner,” correctly predicts the rise of either molecular gastronomy or fast food.
These, oddly enough, actually exist. Electric trains! 02. Universo mecanico: La ley de la caida de los cuerpos 2/2 (03:06) שקרים יפים | על נתונים, אינפוגרפיקות, ומה שהולך לאיבוד בדרך.

Mike Matas: A next-generation digital book. Laws of Simplicity. Organization makes a system of many appear fewer. The home is usually the first battleground that comes to mind when facing the daily challenge of managing complexity. Stuff just seems to multiply. There are three consistent strategies for achieving simplicity in the living realm: 1) buy a bigger house, 2) put everything you don’t really need into storage, or 3) organize your existing assets in a systematic fashion. These typical solutions have mixed results.
At first, a larger home lowers the clutter to space ratio. But ultimately, the greater space enables more clutter. The storage route increases the amount of empty space, but it can be immediately filled in with more stuff that will need to go into storage. Concealing the magnitude of clutter, either through spreading it out or hiding it, is an unnuanced approach that is guaranteed to work by the first Law of reduce. Setting Learning Outcomes - LTC. Following the principle of constructive alignment (see curriculum design) we need to be able to describe learning outcomes that our students can achieve and that are capable of being assessed. Learning outcomes are the specific intentions related to what students should know, understand or be able to do.
They are often described as discipline specific (related to the subject) or generic (related to certain skills such as presentation). Outcomes should be explicit and intelligible to students and other users, expressed in such a form that permits their achievement to be demonstrated. When related to a program of study, outcomes should ideally be developed with reference to relevant forms of external information such as benchmarks or other frameworks. Outcomes often use action verbs such as those described in Bloom's Taxonomy of Educational Objectives.
Broader statements related to the development of knowledge or understanding are better described as 'aims' or 'objectives'.
