  • A Level Music
    A level Music Areas of Study – Other Perspectives NB: updates to this document were made in April 2021 and these are highlighted in yellow. © artwork: Mark Bolitho | Origami photography Pearson Education Ltd/Justin Hoffman Introduction This qualification features a Component entitled Appraising. The purpose of this component is for students to develop their listening and appraising skills through the study of music across a variety of styles and genres. The content is grouped into six areas of study, containing either two or three set works. This component gives students the opportunity to reflect on, analyse and evaluate music in aural and/or written form. To achieve this objective, students need to use their knowledge and understanding of musical elements, context and language to make critical judgements about the repertoire and context of music within the areas of study. Students should also study a range of pieces beyond these set works. The suggested other musical pieces for each area of study (see Appendix 4 of the specification) provide students with breadth, enabling them to place their knowledge of musical elements, context and language in a wider context, and apply their knowledge and understanding to more pieces of music. The suggested other music can help students to relate their learning to music in the set works, but their study is not compulsory. Teachers can identify and teach other pieces of music to support their students’ learning. The following music and musicians are examples of how each of the areas of study can be approached from a diverse range of other perspectives. The pieces have been chosen to encourage students to think beyond the mainstream and over-represented composers and styles of music, and instead to consider alternative and less well-known types and origins of music.

How long you want to do this? The dingy alley is crowded with old pallets and dumpsters. No way a car could get through it. The alley runs near the DETROIT RIVER, which separates Detroit and Windsor, and the U.S. from Canada. It’s cold as shit, and ice floes make their way down the water. Even after all these years, Foley still looks great. The edge to him that’s always been just below the surface is now more pronounced.

Declaration Hereby I declare that this paper is my original authorial work, which I have worked out on my own. All sources, references, and literature used or excerpted during elaboration of this work are properly cited and listed in complete reference to the due source. Pavol Ulbrich Advisor: doc. RNDr. Barbora Kozlíková, Ph.D. i Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisor, Bára Kozlíková, for an excellent mentoring and guidance through the last stages of my master studies. Then my thanks go to two of my colleagues, Víťa Matela and Vojta Frodl, for countless nights in sixth floor of the faculty building. Writing our theses. iii Abstract To better understand the constitution and spatial arrangement of protein sequences, L. Kocincová et al. [1] proposed a novel method of comparative visualization, which combines traditionally used 1D and 3D representations. Its main contribution is the ability to observe the spatial differences between the proteins without any occlusion problems, commonly present in 3D view. However, the practical im- plementation of the innovative method has remained unfinished. This thesis aims to create a web application for comparative visualization of protein secondary structures, which will benefit from the qualities of the method proposed by Kocincová et al.

  • Lexical Innovation on the Internet - Neologisms in Blogs
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2009 Lexical innovation on the internet - neologisms in blogs Smyk-Bhattacharjee, Dorota Abstract: Studien im Bereich des Sprachwandels beschreiben traditionellerweise diachronische Verän- derungen in den Kernsubsystemen der Sprache und versuchen, diese zu erklären. Obwohl ein Grossteil der Sprachwissenschaftler sich darüber einig ist, dass die aktuellen Entwicklungen in einer Sprache am klarsten im Wortschatz reflektiert werden, lassen die lexikographischen und morphologischen Zugänge zur Beobachtung des lexikalischen Wandels wichtige Fragen offen. So beschäftigen sich letztere typischer- weise mit Veränderungen, die schon stattgefunden haben, statt sich dem sich zum aktuellen Zeitpunkt vollziehenden Wandel zu widmen. Die vorliegende Dissertation bietet eine innovative Lösung zur Un- tersuchung des sich vollziehenden lexikalischen Wandels sowohl in Bezug auf die Datenquelle als auch bzgl. der verwendeten Methodologie. In den vergangenen 20 Jahren hat das Internet unsere Art zu leben, zu arbeiten und zu kommunizieren drastisch beeinflusst. Das Internet bietet aber auch eine Masse an frei zugänglichen Sprachdaten und damit neue Möglichkeiten für die Sprachforschung. Die in dieser Arbeit verwendeten Daten stammen aus einem Korpus englischsprachiger Blogs, eine Art Computer gestützte Kommunikation (computer-mediated communication, CMC). Blogs bieten eine neue, beispiel- lose Möglichkeit, Wörtern nachzuspüren zum Zeitpunkt, in der sie Eingang in die Sprache finden. Um die Untersuchung des Korpus zu vereinfachen, wurde eine Software mit dem Namen Indiana entwickelt. Dieses Instrument verbindet den Korpus basierten Zugang mit einer lexikographischen Analyse. Indiana verwendet eine Kombination von HTML-to-text converter, eine kumulative Datenbank und verschiede Filter, um potentielle Neologismen im Korpus identifizieren zu können.

While these resources are good for some purposes, serious research and academic work often requires access to databases, articles and books that, if they are available online, are only accessible by subscription. Fortunately, the UMass Library subscribes to most of these services. To access these resources online, go to the UMass Library Web site (library.umass.edu). For the best possible help finding information on any topic, talk to a reference librarian in person.

For a complete guide to Google’s features go to http://www.google.com/help/ Simple Search Strategies Google keeps the specifics of its page-ranking techniques secret, but here are a few things we know about what makes pages appear at the top of your search: - your search terms appears in the title of the web page - your search terms appear in links that lead to that page - your search terms appear in the content of the page (especially in headers) When you choose the search terms you enter into Google, think about the titles you would expect to see on these pages or that you would see in links to these pages. The more well-known your search target, the more easy it will be to find. Obscure topics or topics that share terms with more common topics will take more work to find.
