So many times we use the phrase “Teaching & Learning” but really we need to be asking ourselves: Are we focusing on teaching or learning? This came up in a discussion with Kim earlier today, (BTW….the two of us in a room for longer than 10 minutes is enough deep conversation to keep me going the rest of the day) that what we are focusing on is not necessary student learning, but instead teachers teaching. ...

Bastante sorprendente la utilizad que le han encontrado un grupo de científicos y que gracias a Google Earth y según leo en , han descubierto que el ganado tiende a pastar alineando su cuerpo en dirección Norte-Sur.

Rear-projection may be deader than dead as far as the biggies are concerned, but the folks at nLighten are intent to squeeze a bit more life out of these 72-inch 1080p DLP sets by sticking an infrared camera inside next to the light source that detects cursor points from an IR-tipped pen, allowing for a simple (no multitouch) touchscreen interface. It can act as a standard Windows mouse allowing for 1080p touchscreen Google Earth, or ...

In questo video si vede come ottenere queste informazioni grazie a Google Earth. Basta cliccare sul bottone per aggiungere un segnaposto ed una finestra fornirà latitudine e longitudine, aggiornando i dati mentre si ...

A year ago we ran a post on tracking a train using the Nokia N95 and Sports Tracker. The iPhone 3G is perhaps playing catchup but with a rash of new navigation orientated applications in the Apple Store it is now possible to add tracking capabilities to Apples phone. We took the free InstaMapper application for a spin on a Thames Clipper over the weekend to see how the iPhone 3G's GPS tracking shapes up.InstaMapper ...

Scoring a big win for its Google Maps and Google Earth online mapping program, Google has snagged exclusive rights to satellite imagery from the worlds highest resolution, commercial Earth-Imaging satellite. The new satellite will be able to distinguish objects on the Earth’s surface as small as 0.41-meters (16 inches) in size in B&W and 1.65 meters (5ft) in color. While the satellite will be able to collect imagery at 0.41-meters, the government requires re-sampling the ...

Para além do tempo de vida muito superior dos LEDs (cerca de 10x mais que as lâmpadas habitualmente usadas nos projectores) estes são muito mais eficientes e geram menos calor, dispensando ventoinhas ruidosas e permitindo equipamentos ainda mais silenciosos. O uso de LEDs dispensa ainda o uso de obturadores e ...

Google Earth的地标功能非常受欢迎,而Google Map却一直是一张光秃秃的地图,而现在地图上的内容终于可以丰富起来了. Google已经将Wiki的概念带入了Google Map,它可以让你利用“MapMaker”在地图上标志方便大家的内容,例如咖啡厅等,当然商家也可以利用它来吸引网上的客人,但目前为止57个国家支持了这种服务,Google Map的中国版还是无法做到这一点.含视频和图像.
