Reader Suggestion: College Lectures
2008-02-16 03:27:00 I had asked yesterday if anyone desired a specific entry. The first reply wanted me to discuss what a typical college lecture was like. So, I'll do my best to describe class fairly, without my bias interfering with the facts.Disclaimer: Every lecturer is a bit different in style and delivery, so this is what to generally expect.Classes fall under three different categories. The first is a lecture, the second is a discussion, and the third is a read-along.Lecture classes are typically the toughest for students. They require constant note taking and incessant attention. The lecturer bases his exams on the material presented in class, so if you miss a day try to get the materials from a classmate. A lecturer, using the blackboard, white board, or power point, presents and discusses the information he deems most important for the subject at hand. He may refer students to the text book if they want to explore other topics, but on the whole, he is only interested in what he himself has t...

Although I have only recently began examining Burge, I am already a big fan of the clarity and precision of his writing.

iTunes U — are the canned lectures a benefit to the students … or to th
2007-10-28 18:40:00 In his article YouTube U. Andy Kessler suggests it’s the professors. Some highlights: Without much fanfare, college lectures are being put online, for free. MIT lectures can be downloaded from iTunes University, and you can watch Cal professors pontificate on your computer via YouTube. Is this some new trend? Do colleges feel threatened by Wikipedia? Something funny is going on. No one gives anything away for free without some ulterior motive. I mean, don’t they know college is big business? Right now, 17 million students are involved in higher education, some higher than others. As a business, college is growing faster than sales of multicolored Crocs. Since 1980, the population of students under 25 has grown 40 percent–and for those over 25, it’s up even more at 52 percent. Is this what your neighbors are doing during the day? Could be. Even better (for colleges, anyway), since 2002 tuition has jumped 35 percent in real terms (that’s adjusted for ...

Saudi Arabia Lectures the EU on Human Rights
2007-10-09 10:00:00 Brussels Journal - The “Human Rights Commission” of Saudi Arabia, a country where slavery was formally abolished as late as the 1960s and is still practiced more or less openly (it is allowed according to sharia law), now lectures Europeans on Islamophobia. Notice that this is not an isolated incident; it is part of a sustained, ongoing effort with the explicit goal of surrendering half a billion Europeans to Islam.Saudi Arabia’s Human Rights Commission (HRC) will urge its counterparts in the European Union to ask their governments not to link terrorism to Islam and also to issue regulations to protect Muslims from prejudice and discrimination because of their faith. The government-funded rights body will also address various human rights issues in Europe: when Muslims are unjustly interrogated, treated with disrespect, physically or mentally abused, or not allowed to practice their faith freely such as Muslim girls being prevented from wearing the hijab (head cover) in some s...

Homeopathy lectures & courses by Prof Vithoulkas
2007-09-15 09:35:00 George Vithoulkas is a teacher and practitioner of homeopathy.. Vithoulkas asserts that the paradigm of conventional medicine has been disastrous for the health of mankind, having failed to prevent or cure disease, and that the excessive use of powerful chemical drugs is responsible for a worldwide degeneration of health. In his view conventional treatments for serious diseases lead to a reduced quality of life rather than longer life. He contends that this is due to medical researchers ignoring the "eternal truths" that underlie the "true principles of medicine and health", and foretells a spiritual crisis if this is not changed. He believes that "conventional medicine, instead of curing diseases, is actually the cause of the degeneration of the human race." He blames modern medicine, vaccinations, and antibiotics for mental disorders including various neurosis, hay fever, asthma, cancer and AIDS, claiming that "immune systems of the western popul...
