The VARK Categories (http://www.vark-learn.com/english/page.asp?p=categories)

The acronym VARK stands for Visual, Aural, Read/write, and Kinesthetic sensory modalities that are used for learning information. Fleming and Mills (1992) suggested four categories that seemed to reflect the experiences of the students and teachers. Although there is some overlap between categories, they are defined as follows.


Visual (V):

This preference includes the depiction of information in maps, spider diagrams, charts, graphs, flow charts, labelled diagrams, and all the symbolic arrows, circles, hierarchies and other devices, that instructors use to represent what could have been presented in words. It could have been called Graphic (G) as that better explains what it covers. It does NOT include movies, videos or PowerPoint. It does include designs, whitespace, patterns, shapes and the different formats that are used to highlight and convey infomation.


Aural / Auditory (A):

This perceptual mode describes a preference for information that is "heard or spoken." Students with this modality report that they learn best from lectures, tutorials, tapes, group discussion, email, using mobile phones, speaking, web chat and talking things through. It includes talking out loud as well as talking to yourself. Often people with this preference want to sort things out by speaking, rather than sorting things out and then speaking.


Read/write (R):

This preference is for information displayed as words. Not surprisingly, many academics have a strong preference for this modality. This preference emphasizes text-based input and output - reading and writing in all its forms. People who prefer this modality are often addicted to PowerPoint, the Internet, lists, filofaxes, dictionaries, thesauri,quotations and words, words, words...


Kinesthetic (K):

By definition, this modality refers to the "perceptual preference related to the use of experience and practice (simulated or real)." Although such an experience may invoke other modalities, the key is that people who prefer this mode are connected to reality, "either through concrete personal experiences, examples, practice or simulation" [See Fleming & Mills, 1992, pp. 140-141]. It includes demonstrations, simulations, videos and movies of "real" things, as well as case studies, practice and applications.

Мне, конечно, стыдно. Но интересно, кто-нибудь из мужиков заметит за что?

[508x699]

"Так все люди не делают!"

"A. Einstein showed that, relative to the 4-D space-time coordinate system, the motion of systems occurs in such as way as to maximize the time..." Угу, лень -- это наше всё. Понятно, что перемещаться, вообще, -- чудовищная глупость.

Тяжело человеку выросшему в СССР совершить покупку после которой вместо многолетних сбережений появляются многолетние долги и нечто аморфное, называемое собственностью. Поразительно, как крепко и глубоко внутри сидит очень неконструктивная идея порочности наличия отрицательного баланса. Надо как-то себя убедить, что большие долги – это очень естественно даже для пессимиста. В конце концов, если нет возможности выплачивать долги, значит всё уже настолько плохо, что от их наличия не может стать хуже…

На мой взгляд, одна из лучших лекций...

Abstract:
Individual mobility is closely linked to the welfare of any society. Not surprisingly, the number of automobiles has been inexorably increasing and is likely to double in the next twenty years. Clearly, this development creates many benefits and economic opportunities, but also many problems, such as air pollution, traffic fatalities, increased energy consumption and carbon dioxide emission.

In this talk the relevance of these problems will be prioritized and some of the most likely technological solutions will be presented. One key point is that in most – if not all – of these approaches automatic control systems will be an enabling factor, without which no true breakthroughs are possible. After these rather general remarks, the following some examples will be presented to show what typical problem setups are to be faced and what methods are to be used to tackle these problems.

Karl Johansson --> Чарльз Джексон

Страна – как женщина – торгует либо телом, либо головой. Те, что живут телом (природными ресурсами) неизбежно впадают в расслоение населения на касты и неистрибимую повсеместную коррупцию. Ужаснулся я когда-то побывав в ЮАР, теперь смотрю на Мексику и вижу к чему катится Россия. Научные школы умирают, успешные ученые превращаются в специалистов по написанию заявок, конкуренты не пускают на мировые рынки технологий, мы завязаем в торговлю телом и это очень грустно...

This is a quite comprehensive page about tapas in Seville that people from the Departments of Applied Mathematics (I and II) at the Universidad de Sevilla prepared for the 20th European Workshop on Computational Geometry in 2004. We think it is a very good source of information and, hence, we have decided to include it in our homepage.

"Tapas" in Seville:
The name "TAPA" originated from the idea of having a slice of ham or a piece of cheese whilst drinking a glass of wine. This was done, in essence, to conserve the aroma of the wine. "Tapas" include dishes such as "cocina casera" (home-made dishes),"chacina" (cured meats), "marisco" (seafood), "caracoles" (snails), "pescadito frito" (fried fish), "revueltos" (scrambled eggs) and "ensaladas" (salads) which can be found in almost any bar. Another option is to order a "ración"(a plateful) or, in some places, a "media ración"(half plate). A 'plateful' would be about six or seven "tapas" and would cost about that amount.

Typical wines from the Seville area include white wines and "fino" (pale,dry sherries which make good aperitifs). These wines are most easily found in "bodegas" (characterized by their wine barrels where the wine is stored). Another popular wine found in "bodegas" is "manzanilla" (pale,dry,white fortified wine) from Sanlúcar de la Barrameda, "moscatel" (sweet wine) from Chipiona and "fino" from Jerez, Puerto de Santa María, Chiclana (Cádiz) and from the Condado County (Huelva). These wines are usually less expensive than other bottled wines and are equally delicious. With respect to eating out, the following is a glossary of Andalusian and Sevillan specialties:

ADOBO: A sauce with vinegar, garlic, paprika and oregano, where the fish, usually dogfish, is macerated before be fried.

lyrics

Once a label is on something
It becomes an it
Like it's no longer alive

It's like a loss of vision
Or some dark impression
Or a black spot on your eye

If it's up to you
My little sweet baboo . . .

lyrics

Многие считают, что шведы – люди крайне не общительные. Это совсем не так. Пообщаться со знакомыми они почти никогда не проч, да и приятных новых знакомств избегать не станут. Но вот при первой встрече с незнакомым человеком, среднестатистический швед просто-напросто не знает как себя вести пока не получит ответ на два вопроса. Первый – каков уровень образования собеседника, и второй – к какой основной социальной группе влияния он относится. Поразительным образом, представители власти и правоохранительных органов становятся почтительнее и вежливее, искренне стараются помочь чем только могут (в законных рамках) и произвести хорошее впечатление на любого хорошо образованного человека из крупной социальной группы. Ну а уж если он ещё и иностранец! Появляется назойливое подсознательное желание не опростоволоситься и покрасоваться. При этом, классифицировав встречного как малообразованного представителя маловлиятельной группы, они инстинктивно становятся грубыми и стараются не утруждать себя попытками даже вникнуть в проблему. Кстати, принадлежности к социальным группам тут традиционно семейные, вылезти в группу повыше без боя не получится.

Какие всё же попадаются наглые нынче аспиранты.

Маяка сегодня процитировала свекра:
"Дети для родителей - всегда недоумки, а внуки для бабушек - всегда не кормлены".

А моя бабушка считала немного по-другому:
"Родители - дураки, а дети - свиньи".
