PUB DATE Dec 94 NOTE 29p.; Adapted from a paper submitted in partial fulfillment of class requirements for VTE 500, Contemporary Concepts in Vocational-Technical Education, Spring 1994, and published in the 1994 American Radio Relay League National Educational Workshop proceedings.

DESCRIPTORS *Communication (Thought Transfer); Educational Innovation; *Educational Radio; Educational' Technology; Elementary Secondary Education; Interdisciplinary Approach; Language Arts; Self Esteem; *Student Motivation; ''Teaching Methods; *Vocational Education IDENTIFIERS *Ham Radio ABSTRACT Amateur radio is a technology and activity that offers great potential when integrated into academic or vocational curricula. Programs with electrical, electronics, and electromechanical content can benefit from the use of amateur radio, and can also enhance language and communications skills. The biggest value of amateur radio may lie in its ability to enhance a student's motivation and self-esteem. In addition to its specific vocational and technical applications, amateur radio can assist in teaching basic skills and in reducing the isolation of students and teachers as it promotes interdisciplinary education and cultural awareness. Amateur radio is distinctly different from citizens band, as it is a noncommercial service. Ham operators do not need an electronics background, although technical knowledge and skills are helpful. Several examples of the educational use of amateur radio illustrate its potential for academic and vocational education.

  • China's Power Sector Heads Towards a Cleaner Future
    EMBARGOED TO 10AM Beijing Time, 27 AUGUST 2013 CONTACT (China) Jun Ying, Bloomberg New Energy Finance +86 10 6649 7522 [email protected] CHINA’S POWER SECTOR HEADS TOWARDS A CLEANER FUTURE China’s power capacity will more than double by 2030 and renewables including large hydro will account for more than half of new plants, eroding coal’s dominant share and attracting investment of $1.4 trillion. China’s power sector carbon emissions could be in decline by 2027. Beijing, 27 August 2013 – China’s power sector is expected to go through significant changes through to 2030, according to a new report released by Bloomberg New Energy Finance. China will add 88GW of new power plants annually from now until 2030, which is equivalent to building the UK’s total generating capacity every year. China is already the world’s largest power generator and its largest carbon emitter. Over the next two decades China could add more than 1,500GW of new generating capacity and invest more than $3.9 trillion in power sector assets. However, as a result of shifts in generation mix, China’s total power sector emissions could start declining as early as 2027. Bloomberg New Energy Finance analysed China’s power sector based on four scenarios. In the central scenario, dubbed ‘New Normal’, China’s total power generation capacity more than doubles by 2030, with renewables including large hydro contributing more than half of all new capacity additions. This, together with an increase in gas-based generation, would drive the share of coal-fired power generation capacity down from 67% in 2012 to 44% in 2030.

  • Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) Handbook 2018 I CONTENTS
    FOREWORD This handbook has been produced by the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA), and is intended for use on ships that are: • compulsorily equipped with GMDSS radiocommunication installations in accordance with the requirements of the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea Convention 1974 (SOLAS) and Commonwealth or State government marine legislation • voluntarily equipped with GMDSS radiocommunication installations. It is the recommended textbook for candidates wishing to qualify for the Australian GMDSS General Operator’s Certificate of Proficiency. This handbook replaces the tenth edition of the GMDSS Handbook published in September 2013, and has been amended to reflect: • changes to regulations adopted by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) World Radiocommunications Conference (2015) • changes to Inmarsat services • an updated AMSA distress beacon registration form • changes to various ITU Recommendations • changes to the publications published by the ITU • developments in Man Overboard (MOB) devices • clarification of GMDSS radio log procedures • general editorial updating and improvements. Procedures outlined in the handbook are based on the ITU Radio Regulations, on radio procedures used by Australian Maritime Communications Stations and Satellite Earth Stations in the Inmarsat network. Careful observance of the procedures covered by this handbook is essential for the efficient exchange of communications in the marine radiocommunication service, particularly where safety of life at sea is concerned. Special attention should be given to those sections dealing with distress, urgency, and safety. Operators of radiocommunications equipment on vessels not equipped with GMDSS installations should refer to the Marine Radio Operators Handbook published by the Australian Maritime College, Launceston, Tasmania, Australia. No provision of this handbook or the ITU Radio Regulations prevents the use, by a ship in distress, of any means at its disposal to attract attention, make known its position and obtain help.
