Ok, I am back from a very successful E-Learn 2008 Conference in Las Vegas. I actually got home a few days ago, but it has taken a little while to catch my breath.

Group think: The turn to online research is narrowing the range of modern scholarship, a new study - (USA)
Group think: The turn to online research is narrowing the range of modern scholarship, a new study suggests But perhaps the greatest boon is the sheer quantity of readily accessible knowledge. Millions of journal articles are available online, enabling scholars to find material they never would have encountered at their university libraries. From classic psychology studies to the most esoteric literary theory, it’s all just a few clicks away. A recent study, however, suggests that despite th

So many people came to gawk at the long-limbed figure that handlers started charging 10 cents’ admission in a vain effort to limit the crowds. By the next year, his fame would spread to far-off London, where a magazine called him “a reptilian master of the world.” It was

Need of Community Policing in India - (USA)
Man is a social animal and lives in the society. In India the constitution has set up many things in the society. Different laws are imposed on the public for different works. For the enforcement of the law, the police play an important role. In India, except some states, others are facing the problem of increasing crime rate day by day. The main reason for that is the public-police ratio. Due to the increasing population the number of police persons is insufficient. In such situation the police

Unity on science education - (USA)
Liberal Conspiracy has a good article up from Unity in response to the Schools Minister Sarah McCarthy-Fry's comments on the lack of schoolgirls opting to study sciences. He points out that science is science and that there really is no such thing as the 'girl-friendly' science that the Minister would like schools to teach. The scientific method is important and that requires a certain degree of rigour - which an education system based on 'teaching to the test' can not necessarily do. For cul

Tower of Babel - fact or parable ? - (USA)
Ancient Babylon conjures up images of wealth, wisdom, splendor and beauty but also, mystery and magic. The Tower of Babel is perhaps one of the most intriguing of the ancient tales. It is thought that Nimrod commissioned the construction of the Tower of Babel. Nimrod was the great grandson of Noah, grandson of Ham and son of Cush. He was King and founder of many cities following the flood - he is associated with Babylon, Mespotonia, Uruk, Akkad and Calneh. He is depicted as a tyrannous ruler, a

Are There Too Many Women in Medicine? - (USA)
Imagine being asked this question at a job interview, as a male or female candidate. To answer ‘yes’ is to acknowledge that there are more female than male doctors, and to assume that such a disparity is detrimental to medical education, clinical practice and research. Consider this question from the perspective of clinical students in their penultimate year of undergraduate study, with job applications imminent; approaching the crossroad between education and employment. This is the position
