Yet despite this slow progress, the silver screen is consistently portraying less fiction and more prediction. Starting with Georges Méliès' Le Voyage dans la Lune (A Trip to the Moon) in 1902, science-fiction films have a tradition of taking contemporary science and extending it to logical conclusions. Modern developments are bringing us closer to that predicted future, but there is still a gulf between reality and Hollywood's artistic license. We've looked at some of our favorite science fiction films to see how they reflect the reality of our times. Here are six kinds of technologies that sci-fi movies have long relied on, and how we're approaching or diverging from those fictional applications.

DESCRIPTORS English Instruction; Higher Education; Instructional Innovation; *Mass Media Role; Mathematics Instruction; *Popular Culture; Science Instruction; Secondary Education; Time IDENTIFIERS Deep Space 9; *Star Trek; Star Trek the Next Generation; Story Concepts ABSTRACT A teacher of reading across the curriculum uses stories, many based on the television show "Star Trek"or its derivatives "Star Trek: The Next Generation" (STNG) and "Deep Space 9," to illustrate educational theories and practice,. Theteacher began a discussion of the nature of language, meaning and the significance of literacy by discussing an episode of STNG entitled "Darmok" in which an alien race spoke only in metaphor. Humor is present in many episodes of "Star Trek," as wellas concepts like the power of fear. Cultural differences are explored in a number of episodes of STNG. The teacher uses "Star Trek"as an introduction to a lesson and as an impetus for story writing. One of the most enduring qualities of the three series is their focuson problem solving, which can serve as demonstrations for students. The series are also used for teaching the technique of role playing. Episodes of STNG and of "Deep Space 9" can be used to teach contentareas such as English, mathematics, history, physics, chemistry, and biology: "Clues" involves an examination ofspace and time; "Drumhead" involves a Joe McCarthy-like investigator; "Cause and Effect" involves a time loop; "Time's Arrow," involving backward timetravel and Mark Twain; "Emissary" deals with guilt, responsibility,and explaining the nature of time to an immortal-ace; and "The Forsaken" which involves a "shape-shifting" character.

  • Heteroglossia in the Ensemble Programme

    Heteroglossia in the Ensemble Programme

    Heteroglossia in the Ensemble Programme By Roberta Pearson We asked Rick Berman whether Trek’s message shows tended to be on the liberal side of the spectrum. “I would say that they do. I think they certainly did with Gene, and I think there’s a bit more of a liberal bent. But we’ve tried to examine issues from both sides.”i Berman’s answer underestimates television and Trek’s capacity for a remarkably complex engagement with the public sphere; the multiple narrative voices of a series with an ensemble cast enable the presentation of many more than two sides. The ambiguities resulting from this polysemy make it difficult to identify the “truth” within the textual actual world or, by extension, in the real world upon which it comments. Says Marie-Laure Ryan, Though the text should be regarded as the highest authority in establishing the facts of the fictional world, this authority does not derive from a monolithic power but is distributed – in accordance with Mikhail Bakhtin’s idea of dialogism – among a plurality of narrative voices. Since these voices may contradict each other, fictional truths cannot automatically be derived from textual statements. ii A television programme with an ensemble cast resembles in many respects the novel from which Bakhtin derived his concepts of heteroglossia and the dialogism to which it gives rise. According to Bakhtin The novel can be defined as a diversity of social speech types … and a diversity of individual voices, artistically organized…. The novel orchestrates all its themes, the totality of the world of objects and ideas depicted and expressed in it, by means of the social diversity of speech types and by the differing individual voices that flourish under such conditions.

    Proving Intelligent Design by Examining Unconscious Decision Processes

    Proving Intelligent Design by examining unconscious decision processes Martin K. Dubreuil 1, Sergii Koliada April 14, 2014 Abstract: Prompted by previous research results we analysed human decision processes for unconscious patterns. Like former studies [1, 2] we were able to find law-like patterns that were not consciously created. We calculated the residual uncertainty about the pattern to 1 : 10 13 and proved a high correlation ratio for the data source related to the found pattern through an intra class correlation test (3.2). We showed that conscious human behaviour and natural selection (3.3) are not able to explain this result. We showed that the found patterns content support Intelligent Design (3.4). This gives Intelligent Design a testable and verifiable hypotheses for the first time.

We first used the gained data set for intraclass and interclass analysis. Then we searched for other unusual characteristics. There were 318 bit strings entered with an average length of 80 digits. We discovered, that not a single time „00000000“ or „11111111“ were entered. For a row of 318*80 = 25440 digits it is very unlikely that there is no row of 8 equal digits.
