  • On the Craft of Fiction—EL Doctorow at 80
    Interview Focus Interview VOLUME 29 | NUMBER 1 | FALL 2012 | $10.00 Deriving from the German weben—to weave—weber translates into the literal and figurative “weaver” of textiles and texts. Weber (the word is the same in singular and plural) are the artisans of textures and discourse, the artists of the beautiful fabricating the warp and weft of language into everchanging pattterns. Weber, the journal, understands itself as a tapestry of verbal and visual texts, a weave made from the threads of words and images. This issue of Weber - The Contemporary West spotlights three long-standing themes (and forms) of interest to many of our readers: fiction, water, and poetry. If our interviews, texts, and artwork, as always, speak for themselves, the observations below might serve as an appropriate opener for some of the deeper resonances that bind these contributions. THE NOVEL We live in a world ruled by fictions of every kind -- mass merchandising, advertising, politics conducted as a branch of advertising, the instant translation of science and technology into popular imagery, the increasing blurring and intermingling of identities within the realm of consumer goods, the preempting of any free or original imaginative response to experience by the television screen. We live inside an enormous novel. For the writer in particular it is less and less necessary for him to invent the fictional content of his novel. The fiction is already there. The writer’s task is to invent the reality. --- J. G. Ballard WATER Anything else you’re interested in is not going to happen if you can’t breathe the air and drink the water.

  • Night and Day Year 3 Earth and Space Sciences
    Fully aligned with theCurriculum Australian Night and day Year 3 Earth and space sciences About this unit Night and day What causes night and day? The rising of the Sun and the Moon are daily reminders of the awe and wonder, beauty and power of the universe. Studying the relationships between the Sun, Earth and Moon helps us understand how we experience day and night on Earth. It also helps us understand directions in terms of North, South, East and West, how time is based on the apparent movement of the Sun across the sky and how time can be determined using a sundial. The Night and day unit is an ideal way to link science with literacy in the classroom. Students explore the sizes, shapes, positions and movements of the Sun, Earth and Moon. They investigate how shadows change throughout the day and link these changes to the Sun’s apparent movement across the sky. Students role-play the movements of the Earth in relation to the Sun and Moon. Through investigations, they explain night and day in terms of the Earth spinning on its axis.

  • Filled with Lavish Soundscapes, Epic Climaxes, Dramatic Builds, Intimate
    Filled with lavish soundscapes, epic climaxes, dramatic builds, intimate piano moments and inspiring orchestral arrangements, the timeless 12 track instrumental debut The Edge Of The Light by FLOATING IN SPACE is a masterful merging of both delicate and energetic sounds. The album, which tends to lean towards the dramatic side of cinematic songwriting, will undoubtedly appeal to fans of Deep Elm artists including Lights & Motion, U137, Carly Comando, Christoffer Franzen and Inward Oceans. Stream the album preview for The Edge Of The Light here: bit.ly/Dis-eotl “This album is a travel through time, space, distance and feelings. Through my songs, I try to show my vision of a world where light and shadows, calm and fears, solitude and togetherness meet in the vastness of space. There are two things that never cease to inspire me when I look through my window: the sea and the sky. I see all vital experiences, dreams and fears more clearly when taking a night walk along the coastline. Those walks inspire me to describe my feelings through music” says Caballero. He continues, “So I've created an album that I would want to listen to, as if my experiences and feelings were sequences of a movie with my music as the soundtrack. I strongly believed Deep Elm was the ideal record label for Floating In Space due to its superb catalog and their know-how and experience in the genre. It is of vital importance for me to work with people who share my passion for music and who pay attention to every small detail of a song, encouraging their growth and taking them to a whole new level.

    TEFAF Maastricht 11th March – 20th March 2016 Opening Preview on 10th March Stand No. 223 The Yufuku Collection 2016 Our Raison D'etre In recent years, the emergence of a group of Japanese artists who have Kumi Sugai Takafumi Asakura 06 38 spearheaded a new way of thinking in the realm of contemporary art has helped to shift paradigms and vanquish stereotypes borne from the 19th century, their art and aesthetic understood as making vital contributions to the broader history of modern and contemporary art. This new current, linked by the phrase Keisho-ha 10 Sueharu Fukami 42 Niyoko Ikuta (School of Form), encompasses a movement of artists who, through the conscious selection of material and technique, create boldly innovative works that cannot be manifested by any other means. The term craft holds no true meaning to this movement, nor do the traditional dichotomies that have traditionally separated 14 Ken Mihara 46 Akihiro Maeta fine and craft art. In the words of Nietzsche, "Craft is dead." A new age beckons. No country exemplifies this expanding role more so than the artists of contemporary Japan, a country that continues to place premium on elegance in execution coupled with cutting-edge innovation within tradition. No gallery 18 Shigekazu Nagae 50 Naoki Takeyama represents this new movement more so than Yufuku, a gallery that has nurtured the Keisho School from its conceptual inception. Michelangelo once said, "every block of stone has a statue inside, and it is the task of the sculptor to discover it."

  • The Model of the Rectilinear Propagation of Light and the Study of the Variation of the Size of a Shadow
    US-China Education Review B 2 (2012) 173-186 D Earlier title: US-China Education Review, ISSN 1548-6613 DAVID PUBLISHING The Model of the Rectilinear Propagation of Light and the Study of the Variation of the Size of a Shadow Abdeljalil Métioui Louis Trudel Université du Québec à Montréal, Université d’Ottawa, Montréal, Canada Ottawa, Canada The international community of the researchers in science education unanimously agrees on the necessity to take into account, in the elaboration of educational strategies, to specify that all development of educational strategies, the conceptual complexity of the scientific models as well as the various conceptions of the learners. In the present research, we are going to identify the conceptions of future teachers of the primary school with respect to the rectilinear propagation of light as well as the survey of the formation of a shadow and the variation of its size. The analysis of the data of a written questionnaire showed that the majority has erroneous conceptions compared to the scientific conceptions. We are going to see also that one can make evolve their conceptions while developing a didactic strategy centered on the conceptual conflict. Keywords: training teacher’s, primary school, conceptual change, light, qualitative research Introduction A review of various researches on the sensitive issue of sciences in elementary schools indicated that children show a fascinating curiosity to understand the material environment with which they interact and, consequently, they develop different conceptions prior to any formal teaching. However, despite of their functional and operational roles, these conceptions appear to conflict with accepted scientific theories (Potari & Spiliotopoulou, 1996, Ravanis, Zacharos, & Vellopoulou, 2010; Russel, Harlen, & Watt, 1989; Selley, 1996; Sharp, 1996; Slone & Bokhurst, 1992).
