OpenDOAR The Directory of Open Access Repositories

URL: http://www.opendoar.org/

What?

The OpenDOAR service provides a quality-assured listing of Open Access Repositories (OAR) around the world. OpenDOAR staff harvest and assign metadata to allow categorisation and analysis to assist the wider use and exploitation of repositories. Each of the repositories has been visited by OpenDOAR staff to ensure a high degree of quality and consistency in the information provided: OpenDOAR is maintained by SHERPA...

Aims?

Survey the growing field of academic open access research repositories and categorise them in terms of locale, content and other measures.
Produce a descriptive list of open access repositories of relevance to academic research.
Provide a comprehensive & authoritative list for end users wishing to find particular types of, or specific repositories.
Deliver a comprehensive, structured and maintained list with clear update and self-regulation protocols to enable development of the list.
Play a prominent international role in the organisation of and access to open access repository services.
Support Open Access outreach and advocacy endeavours within institutions and globally.

Useful?

At present there is no single comprehensive and authoritative list which records academic open access repositories. In a networked environment, Information Discovery and Retrieval are the keys to the successful delivery of services. By listing archives and their descriptions, OpenDOAR will support third party service providers - for example, search services - in developing new services for end-users...

Findability?

Although OpenDOAR was not originally intended to provide a search service for individual articles held in repositories, the advent of Googles Custom Search Engine has made this possible. You can therefore now both search for the full-text of material held in open access repositories listed in the Directory using Search Repository Contents, or use OpenDOAR to find repositories or groups of repositories that fit particular needs using our Find facility.

Masterminds?

OpenDOAR is being developed and maintained by the University of Nottingham as part of a portfolio of work in Open Access and repositories under the SHERPA umbrella. OpenDOAR was started and initially developed by the University of Nottingham, UK, and the Lund University , Sweden...

Currently, there are 930 repositories in the directory (Surely to grow!). Here is one of many juicy informative and visual statistics about what you can find in OpenDOAR :)

Thwarted Innovation What Happened to E learning and Why

Link to Report (By Robert Zemsky & William F Massy)
Abstract: "The Thwarted Innovation report suggests that educational technology and e-learning have not delivered on the promise of revolutionizing the classroom and making higher education more profitable. It suggests that, despite the rapid growth in the US of online education, many teaching staff at colleges do not use innovative technology on their courses, and that not much benefit has been gained from the investment in educational technology. E-learning was studied at six institutions: Foothill College, Hamilton College in New York, Michigan State University, Northwest Missouri State University, the University of Pennsylvania, and the University of Texas at Austin over a 15-month period for the report.
The Learning Alliance includes higher education research centers at Stanford University, the University of Michigan, and the University of Pennsylvania. The report is 61 pages long (excluding title pages and appendices)."

Creating and Testing T L Strategies for the Virtual Classroom

Link to article (By Nancy E. Thompson)
Full Title: Creating and Testing Teaching/Learning Strategies for the Virtual Classroom "...the purpose of this study is to define and describe teaching/learning strategies for use in distance education, use those strategies in designing distance education instruction, and test their effectiveness. Three theoretical frames were used in the creation of the strategies: adult educational theory; brain-based educational theory; and the Effective Distance Education Model."

Findings:

Teaching/learning strategies developed within a theoretical frame of adult education, brain-based education and the Effective Distance Education Model can be effective when used in the virtual, graduate classroom.
Inexperienced instructors need additional help to succeed, and therefore should go through induction programs, which consists of training, support, and sustained feedback in a collaborative environment.
Training sessions should be designed to acquaint the teacher with distance education teaching strategies.
It is recommended to pair the new teacher with an experienced teacher to provide the new teacher with a role model, friend, advisor, and confidante (mentor).
Encourage the role of reflection in the development of teaching skills as teachers learn to know themselves and view themselves through the eyes of their students, their colleagues, and the professional literature (e.g. video tape the instructor and review, periodic assessments of the teacher by students, participation in informal professional-development groups, and study professional literature.)

Yes, there is a lot to learn from this article! Induction programs, mentoring, and continuous support to new and inexperienced teachers in any educational institution could covert them into great virtual teachers (within a very short time. Say, two (2) months! Trust me!).

Link to OpenEducation.net

"OpenEducation.net (by Go College) is a site dedicated to tracking the changes occurring in education today. In an era where it is possible to photoshop images, facebook people, and access an endless stream of knowledge by googling, the Internet Age offers both great promise and enormous challenges for educators. At OpenEducation.net, readers will be exposed to both an objective and subjective look at the many issues facing the profession today (Source)."

EDITOR?
The site editor Thomas J. Hanson (31 years in education), “relishes the opportunity to share his thoughts on the challenges facing educators and families in today’s complex world. Tom’s belief has always been that teaching is the second most difficult and the second most important job in the world, second only to the challenge and importance of being a parent. He publicly acknowledges his frustration regarding the lack of respect now accorded public school educators, noting that the expectations placed upon schools today are greater now than at any time in history yet the challenges facing children have never been more significant (Source)."

LEARNING JUICE?
If you want to keep yourself updated on changes or issues occurring in education today (especially in North America) this is an excellent new learning avenue to explore (since June 1, 2007) . Here, you can find articles or posts discussing distance learning, teaching and learning, open source software, OpenCourseWare, public policy, intellectual property and much more. The articles (blog posts) published on this site are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License.

Personally, I like the fact that this site (or blog) is updated consistently and often, and the posts are original, stimulating, attractive (cool graphics!), useful and relevant. Here are three (3) articles to support my case:

Innovative Teaching - Chris Wilson Discusses the Comic Book Movement
Athletics Do Offer Lessons that are Missing from the Classroom
Education In the News - What’s Worth Checking Out

Thumbs up on the learning juice factor! Perhaps, they should make the archive a bit easier to access, enabling us easily to jump and scan through all the interesting articles published here. Anyway that is a small matter, which can easily be tweaked if wanted or needed.

Overall, I believe (I hope!) I have shared with you enough learning incentives to explore this excellent site further, which is free for all :)

LN 05 Personalized Learning Video Speed Matters! Tom Kuhlmann Responds Quickly!

"Learning speed matters for watching videos, too! The Rewind and Forward buttons are not enough!"

- Zaid Ali Alsagoff

LEARNING SPEED

Do you read fast? Say, 400 words per minute. Or perhaps you read more than a 1000 words per minute! Or perhaps your reading speed is really slow (250 words or less)? Can you imagine if you were forced to read at a specific pace to learn, wouldnt that be terrible?

What about when watching learning videos, doesnt the same apply here? It is great that we can rewind and forward learning videos, but wouldnt it be cool if we had tools to control the pace of the talking professor (or whatever we are listening or watching). Some Professors speak so slowly that they put us to sleep even before they start. Some MIT and Harvard Professors speaks so fast only aliens and IQ geniuses can understand. And that is when perhaps we need to slow down the pace to decipher their super complex algorithms explained at the word of light (Well, we still might not understand, but at least we can capture the words said).

Alright, auto-translated audio to text (in multiple languages) is fine, but I like to listen also the passionate voice of the Professor, too (even if he or she might sound like Mickey Mouse when paced faster).

COURSERA GETS IT!

Have you ever taken a Coursera course? If you have, you might have noticed that you can decrease (.75x) or increase up to two times the speed (2x) of the learning videos, so that you can pace it to your liking. Personally, I would like it to be even more flexible, so that we can increase the speed further to even three times or more. For example, blind people can usually listen extremely fast to narrated speech, so 2 times faster might seem quite slow for their preferred learning speed pace.

Also, I would like to highlight here that I cant see the video pace buttons, or know how to speed it up on my iPad (Only on my laptop!), so that is kind of frustrating! So, Coursera what are you doing about that?

YouTube gets it, too! It even allows you to slowdown to 0.25 (though, sound seems to only work from 0.5 and upwards) and increase up to 2 times the original video speed. Though, I would love to be able to increase the video speed further, especially for people with accessibility issues and super learners!

ARTICULATE

What about Rapid e-Learning tools such as Articulate Presenter, Articulate Storyline, Camtasia and Captivate? Do they empower you to speed up the video pace to your personalized learning speed? Well, Articulate player interfaces dont, and that is a shame. As we at our University (IMU) use Articulate tools a lot, we would like to see such features embedded really soon.

To speed up the process, I tweeted my request right to the Articulate (Super) man...Tom Kuhlmann (and Articulate):

@tomkuhlmann @Articulate Presenter (interface) should empower users to increase the audio/presentation speed...Learn from Coursera :)
— Zaid Ali Alsagoff (@zaidlearn) December 4, 2013

An then I quickly realized, perhaps I should a create a Screenr (screen recording) clarifying visually what I want, so Articulate are perfectly clear what I want.

@tomkuhlmann @Articulate This is what I want! Can you do it? Enlighten us how it can be done! Thanks @coursera http://t.co/m2v0RIIttd
— Zaid Ali Alsagoff (@zaidlearn) December 4, 2013

TOM RESPONDS WITHIN 8 HOURS!

Tom being Tom, responds within 8 hours: Ive added it as a feature request :)" (as a comment to the Screenr video).

Thumbs up! That is why Tom Kuhlmann is the RAPID E-LEARNING GUY (in the world)!

WHEN?

Wait a second! Until I can publish Articulate content with learning video speed features, I am not going to celebrate! So, Articulate the waiting period has begun!

Now, it is time for Articulate to show us HOW RAPID THEY CAN BE!

Well, it might take longer than I had initially hoped, because Tom e-mailed me that "the challenge with this type of functionality is that it works well for video, but if the course content is audio synced to other elements its not easy, especially interactive content."

I am (still) waiting eagerly to speed learn Articulate content at my personalized learning pace :)

Editable Spelling Practice Book!

Yikes! This cold has taken its toll on me this week... I even missed my Wednesday linky party! I thought I had scheduled the post but I managed to leave it as a draft so it didnt post!

Anyway, a few months ago I made this cute spelling practice book for my class, and it has made a world of difference for my students. One of my parents even said, "Thank you for sending the book home. He never wanted to practice his spelling words since they werent printed on a sheet that said homework and now he has no excuse!" My kids love bringing in their book each Friday, and I love how well theyre doing on their tests.

I still do lesson plans in class for spelling, but this book has made a major difference in getting them to practice at home!

This editable book allows you to input your own list of 5 or 10 spelling words. It has special instructions to encourage your students to practice writing their words at home every single night! Just type in the date of the spelling test and change the words on the book. Copy the book two sided and fold it in half like a book. The book itself is only one page from and back!

1. Remove x , y axis ... remove border

 * By default when you create a chart you will get X-axis and Y-axis so you need not explicitly add X-axis and Y-axis. 
 * Removing X-axis : 
      Add below Extension Points : 
  xAxisRule_strokeStyle =#e9f1f4;
  xAxisTicks_strokeStyle = #e9f1f4;
  xAxisEndLine_strokeStyle=#ccd8dd;
 * Removing Y-axis : Set below property to the chart component. 
  Ortho Axis Visible = False
 * To remove the border of the chart set below property to the chart component
  plot2FrameVisible=False

2. Print values vertically on X-axis
 * Add below Extension points : 
  baseAxisLabel_textAngle=1.6
  baseAxisLabel_textBaseline=middle
  baseAxisLabel_textAlign=right

3. how to remove ticks of Axis ?

  * Removing ticks can be achivable by setting below property 
               baseAxisTicks= False

4. what is ortho axis , orthoaxis 2 ?

     Ortho Axis is nothing but Y axis.
     Orthoaxis 2 is nothing but 2nd Y axis . i.e., you can treat it as a y axis right of the chart when you develop a mixed chart 
     (i.e., mixed chart = a bar chart + a line chart).

USB Disk Security 6 3 0 30 Full version with serial keys

Info:
USB disks let you add unlimited storage to your desktop or laptop (especially laptops!) for movies, songs, images, backups, and other bulky data. USB thumbdrives and portable storage devices let you carry gigabytes of data with you. The USB interface means compatibility with almost every PC. And heres the problem: huge capacity, total portability, universal compatibility, and absolute indispensability work together to render your USB disks and devices especially vulnerable to viruses and other malware. USB Disk Security from Zbshareware Lab is an effective solution for securing your USB disks and data. This easy-to-use shareware is widely compatible with antivirus programs and other security tools. Its free to try, but the fully licensed version comes with lifetime updates and support.
Software tends to look like its type: media players, graphics apps, and e-mail clients usually look like media players, graphics apps, and e-mail clients. USB Disk Security looks like an up-to-date PC security tool, with a colorful and stylish yet professional-looking interface, clearly labeled buttons, and file list views. USB Disk Security incorporates several tools, including USB Shield, with real-time monitoring of USB drives; USB scan, a malware scanner optimized for USB drives; Data Prevention, which consists of the USB Access Control and USB Drive Control tools; and Safe Sites, with a URL Scanner and a Safe Web Navigation feature that sets the programs LinkZB page as your browsers home page. USB Disk Security also bundles some useful System Tools: Disk Cleanup, Repair System, and Autostart List. Unsafe and deleted files are moved to a Quarantine directory. The Settings menu is simple: just a password feature and language menu. But the Help menu is extensive and clearly written as well as illustrated with many screenshots.
We use a lot of USB disks and drives for a lot of different types of data, and weve used many utilities designed to protect them, but never one as powerful and capable as USB Disk Security, or with as many extras. If you like USB Disk Security, the registration cost is a small price to pay to keep your drives and data safe and secure. Read more

    Inherits Windows.Forms.Button
    Public Sub New()
        Making Existing Button Transparent
        Me.FlatStyle = Windows.Forms.FlatStyle.Flat
        Me.FlatAppearance.BorderSize = 0
        Me.FlatAppearance.MouseDownBackColor = Color.Transparent
        Me.FlatAppearance.MouseOverBackColor = Color.Transparent
        Me.BackColor = Color.Transparent

        ReDevelop the existing Button adding image to a transparent image
        Me.BackgroundImage = My.Resources._1button
        Me.BackgroundImageLayout = ImageLayout.Stretch

    End Sub

    Private Sub TheCrazyProgrammersBtn_MouseDown(sender As Object, e As MouseEventArgs) Handles Me.MouseDown
        Me.BackgroundImage = My.Resources._1button_click
    End Sub

    Private Sub TheCrazyProgrammersBtn_MouseHover(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Me.MouseHover
        Me.BackgroundImage = My.Resources._1button_hover
    End Sub

    Private Sub TheCrazyProgrammersBtn_MouseLeave(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Me.MouseLeave
        Me.BackgroundImage = My.Resources._1button
    End Sub

    Private Sub TheCrazyProgrammersBtn_MouseUp(sender As Object, e As MouseEventArgs) Handles Me.MouseUp
        Me.BackgroundImage = My.Resources._1button
    End Sub
End Class

Inter panel communication in pentaho CDE ClickAction and Listeners usage in pentaho CDE

Hello guys,
This post will teach you how to communicate the panels in pentaho CDE dashboard.

Example Scenario :
Panel 1 : BarChart is placed in panel-1
Panel 2: Table data displayed in panel-2
Functionality : When you click on any of the bars, then the corresponding data should be displayed in 2nd panel. i.e., Make use of parameters, clickAction property, Listeners.

Example Developed on :
Pentaho 5.0 CE server
Pentaho C-Tools version : 13.09
Database : postgresql-foodmart( jasper food mart database)

Steps:
1) Create parameter (Lets say : param1_position_title)
2) Add it to listeners & parameters in your table component.
3) Add it to parameters in your data source for table query
Example:
SELECT
        employee_id,
        full_name,
        position_id,
        department_id
FROM
        employee
WHERE
        position_title=${param1_position_title}

4) Add to parameters in your chart(bar chart).

5) BarChart query example:

SELECT DISTINCT
    position_title AS position,
    sum(salary) AS salary
FROM employee
GROUP BY position_title

6) In the chart properties
clickable = True
clickAction
function fun()
{
     Dashboards.fireChange(param1_position_title, this.scene.atoms.category.value);
}
NOTE:
It is like drill down with in the same dashboard, but here we make use of Dashboards.fireChange function.

Terrain Correction of SAR Images Part 2

Rather than clicking through each applied method in the menue, a production chain can be implemented with the "Graph Builder". Choose "Graphs>Graph Builder" and by right clicking in the graph space you can add methods and connect them with arrows in the order of running through these.

You can save the whole graph as an xml-file for later use, and this is also needed for batch command line processing. The individual tabs in the Graph Builder are just the same as described in part 1, only be aware that for the SARSIM Terrain Correction three individual parts have to be chosen (below the numbers 6 through 8). The "SARSIM-Terrain-Correction" you can choose is only part of the similarly named SARSIM Terrain Correction in Part 1!

The Next iPhone Dissected

http://www.gizmodo.com

We took apart the next iPhone.
There are a number of interesting facts gained from the dissection, the most important of which is more concrete confirmation (as if we needed any more) that this phone is from Apple. There are three separate places, inside the case, where APPLE is written prominently.

Upon unscrewing the bottom two screws—just like with the 3GS—you can use a suction cup and pry off the back portion of the phone, not the front like on iFixits 3GS teardown. Once open, youll notice that the battery takes up around 50% of the phone, give or take. Very impressive.

Diving deeper becomes much trickier. There are a total of around 40-50 screws inside the phone, positioned at various angles that are almost frustratingly impossible to get to. Components can be removed and detached from other components. There are a handful of pieces like this. But you dont know which ones are meant to detach, because you dont have the manual. Once you get all the screws off and pry off the pieces that connect the micro-SIM, the camera, the on/off switch and volume buttons, youre ready to access the brains.

The main logic board is one very weird piece of this puzzle. Unlike the iPhone 3GS teardown, which revealed a large logic board along with another part down by the dock connector, this design only has something maybe 1/3 of the size, along with one or two extraneous parts. Basically, the guts have shrunk drastically.

Unfortunately for us, Apple intends to keep this a secret. There are no markings on the board, but even so, the board was encased in metal all around so nothing could get through and would be very difficult to remove without breaking the device. Anyone trying to take this part off the phone would damage the device irreparably. On top of this metal, there was a thermal paste-like material. And on top of that, black tape. They really didnt want people looking inside.
I wanted to make sure I didnt damage the components beyond repair, so I didnt take the metal off. So this is as much as I could learn without actually breaking the phone. And this is why I couldnt find out if there was an A4 processor—like the iPads—in this iPhone. I also couldnt really identify many parts, because they were hidden under the metal sheath.
Once the guts are out, all you have left is the screen. The back of the screen (on the inside) is a shiny mirror, and if youre not careful when taking it apart, you can scratch the face of the phone from the back, like a CD.
If it wasnt obvious by the micro-SIM card, this particular phone most likely wasnt for Verizon. Thats not to say that there isnt a Verizon phone in the works, but Im pretty sure what I held in my hand was not it.
No, the battery is not user-removable. You have to open the case to get at it.

Two lessons can be learned from the hours and hours it took to disassemble the phone. First is that everything fits in here like an intricately-designed jigsaw puzzle. This is definitely laid out like a final product. To think that theres more room left for any components for this case is unreasonable. Unless Apple decides now to go with a larger case so they can fit more things in there, this is the most that were going to see this summer. Apple put all these components in here to test, to make sure that theyre available for use if necessary. Its also possible that Apple will take out components at the last minute, be it due to a contract issue, or a manufacturing problem, or a cost comparison.
Second, Apple really, really shrunk down their parts to make this phone thinner. It might weigh 3 grams more than the 3GS, but remember, the battery is 19% larger than before. Everything else is way reduced to fit the smaller case.
After subsequently putting the phone back together, I really feel sorry for the factory workers in China who do this all day.
