The decisions of those who work in these varied fields result in infrastructure that shapes the built environment. The resulting infrastructure is included in this broad definition of architecture and functions as a form of regulation through architecture
This is the heart of her thesis?
In the following article, I want to make a case for why we should talk about affect when we talk about writing, reading, and literacy
Although much of the letters' interest lies in the fact they give individual voices to the anonymous mass of the 'reading public', it is possible to identify several common themes which unify them as a group. A vast majority of these women express feelings of alienation from the world, identification with Byron, and a desire to make some kind of contact with the poet.
I agree with Joseph, as this statement follows a clear presentation of a thesis, starting with a qualification, "Although much of...", and continuing with a claim/reason to investigate, "it is possible to identify..."
Connections betweenvariables are specified to form a network, and inferencing aboutthe value of a variable in the network is accomplished by Bayesiancalculations on other variables connected to it (Millán, Loboda, &Pérez-de-la-Cruz, 2010).
Does technology dictate pedagogy? If so - do certain ITS' lock in a specific pedagogy - if so which one?
Last, it is possible that ITS’s effectiveness differs as the users’age or educational levels differ. The current meta-analysis focusedon studies of ITS’s impact on college students’ learning, while thelatter focused on ITS’s influence on K-12 students’ mathematicallearning. It is likely that ITS may function better for more maturestudents who have sufficient prior knowledge, self-regulationskills, learning motivation, and experiences with computers thanfor younger students who may still need to develop the abovecharacteristics and need more human inputs to learn. This hypoth-esis needs to be tested in future research.
This is very interesting.
It’s not, of course, that there’s anything wrong with making (although it’s not all that clear that the world needs more stuff).
The wave of "Internet of Things" seems to be co-opted by consumerist view of the world needing more "stuff". While repairing or repurposing is kind of a second class activity, particularly in the Global North and in contrast with the Global South (see for example the gambiarra approach and critique from Brazil).
So this maker of the new and visible seems not only informed by gender but also by race/place.
Almost all the artifacts that we value as a society were made by or at the order of men. But behind every one is an invisible infrastructure of labor—primarily caregiving, in its various aspects—that is mostly performed by women.
The main issue here is the visible versus the invisible work. Making in the "makers" movement sense is related with making the visible stuff, usually the hardware/software related one with a strong formal correlate (because stuff takes the form of programmed code or is the result of programming code, i.e 3D printing), while "soft" informal stuff, like the day to day issues of logistics about places and doings is invisible.
The question in not solved simply by making the invisible visible, as Susan Leigh Star has pointed out (in the case of nursing, for example). It's also about leaving the invisible to be agent of important stuff without being trapped by the formalism of the visible. To give the visible and the invisible the proper weight without only trying one to become the other.
In this post I discuss the possibilities for using your personal blogs, and Medium to create a fishbowl discussion for use in project and research planning
Purpose of post
In this post we hope to both expand their definition of what annotation can be and inspire them to experiment with new ways of doing it
purpose of article--a call to action.
cause disability has such potent cultural reso- nances, its visualization has been enlisted to manipulate viewers for a wide range of aims. This essay focuses on how that manipulation has operated and what meanings it has carried.
This essay explores popular photographic images of disability rather than medical images, whose circulation was generally limited to text- books and clinical studies aimed toward a specialized and often elite audi

We are very far from the knowledge needed to make good climate policy
According to MIT's Pr Emanuel and Pr Solomon, the thesis of this article "does not follow from the scientific substance of the essay". Their full argumentation is on The Equation. Here is the extract:
"Koonin notes several key scientific fundamentals. He does not deny that climate is changing, that human activities are at least partly responsible for it, or that policy formulation should take climate change into account. But the headline statement—that not enough is known about climate to warrant significant action given the risks—is a statement of values and does not follow from the scientific substance of the essay."
the field is not yet mature enough to usefully answer the difficult and important questions being asked of it.
