Kyrene School District's governing board gave the OK to fix some critical roadways at several schools when it approved the 2014-15 Proposed Budget and Identification of Insurance and Condemnation Proceeds by a 3-1 vote during Tuesday evening's governing board meeting.
Jeremy Calles, chief financial officer, opened the meeting with a brief synopsis of the proposed budget and explained what types of projects would be done at schools across the district.
One of the major projects Calles discussed during the meeting was the adjacent ways project, which would focus on repairing the entrance ways of schools so buses and fire trucks could enter the school with minimal disturbance.
The funding for the adjacent ways project would come from the primary tax rate.
Calles showed photos of the cracked concrete at schools around the district that would need to be replaced.
One photo shown was from Kyrene Akimel A-al Middle School's fire lane, which showed visible separation from the concrete.
"What we would be proposing here is to tear up the slab to get that back in order," Calles said. "There has been shifting that's occurred with some of the slabs on some of these fire lanes."
He said the adjacent ways would also further safety for children who walk the school grounds on a daily basis.
"When we are looking at these items in terms of safety, it's more of a tripping hazard for students. When we are looking at the fire lanes at our schools, a lot of the times kids are running up and down the fire lanes … so when there are cracks on the concrete and it's not at the same level, a child running is prone to trip when the concrete isn't at the same level," Calles said.
Board member John King said that in some of the photos, it seemed as if fixing the adjacent ways could be more about the students' safety than the buses and fire trucks entering the school's property.
Calles said the 2014-15 offers the best time to address the adjacent ways because of the decline of the secondary tax rate and the fact that the district's debt service payments are lower than normal.
"Because our debt service payments are lower than normal, it makes it easier for us to afford to address it this year than next year," he said.

So last week I applied for a Fashion Foundation course that is being held at the St James Cavalier centre for creativity. I had my first 3 hour session yesterday and I must say it was rather interesting. It was more of an overview of the Fashion Industry but we also got a couple of exercises, both individual and group work. One of them was thinking up a 'Jenny' for our hypothetical collection.
We also went briefly into mood boards, so for today we had to create one of our own. The theme I wanted to go with was a chaotic, dynamic and grungy sort of feel. The collection behind this mood board would be something with contrast, something with a structured, tailored feel but still has that dynamic look. Little stones and metal embellishments with an asymmetrical cuts and lines. I'd probably do pops of well integrated colour with whites, creams greys and blacks.
Also, our lecturer , Alison Coates, explained how the type of mood board like below is better than a bunch of clothing and catwalk looks. I'd imagine that a mood board for styling ideas would, in fact, be made as a number of inspiring looks, but for design ideas it's not the same.
It didn't take that much to make but I did think about it and visualize a lot. I do like the final outcome. I'm not particularly into dark colours but I do like that grunge feel so I think what I came up with is adapted to this.
Inspirations for this look were also the Chanel Fall/Winter 2011/2012 show. I loved that show, even more than this year's. The music, the mood, I like it better.

By Mike Brehm, USA TODAY
In the sternest penalty handed down under the new rule against hits to the head, Phoenix Coyotes captain Shane Doanwas suspended for three games for an illegal check against the Anaheim Ducks' Dan Sexton.
Doan had lost the puck in the offensive zone and Sexton had passed it to a teammate Sunday when Doan, in pursuit, gave him a shoulder to the head from the blind side. Such hits were outlawed late last season after blows to David Booth and Marc Savard left both with severe concussions.
Sexton took a spill Sunday but was not injured. No penalty was called on the play.
"While it was fortunate that Sexton did not suffer an injury, the message should be clear that this is the type of hit we want out of our game," said Colin Campbell, the NHL's executive vice president of hockey operations.
ILLEGAL: Shane Doan's hit on Dan Sexton
LEGAL: Shane Doan hit on Cam Fowler
The NHL fined Ottawa Senators forward Nick Foligno $2,500 for an illegal check to the head of Carolina Hurricanes forward Patrick Dwyer.
Doan, who makes $4.55 million, will forfeit more than $73,000 in pay.
Chicago Blackhawks defenseman Niklas Hjalmarsson got a two-game suspension for a hit that left the Buffalo Sabres' Jason Pominville with a concussion, though that was more of a classic hit from behind.
Doan's third-period hit on Sexton was the second big one of the game by the physical winger. He took Cam Fowler hard into the boards behind the net after the Ducks rookie defenseman made an end-to-end rush, but that was a standard hockey check that looked worse because Fowler appeared to lose an edge and went face-first into the boards.
Fowler, 19, broke his nose, but he's expected to join the Ducks on their four-game trip and is considered probable for Wednesday's game at the Columbus Blue Jackets.
Doan will miss games against the Los Angeles Kings, Hurricanes and Montreal Canadiens. He is eligible to return Oct. 26 at the Ottawa Senators.
Around the rinks:New York Rangers center Vinny Prospal had knee surgery and will miss six to eight weeks. He had yet to play this season. …Atlanta Thrashers goaltender Ondrej Pavelec has been cleared to resume practice. He passed out in the season opener against the Washington Capitals, hit his head on the ice and suffered a concussion. …Tampa Bay Lightning center Vincent Lecavalier missed Monday's game with a right hand injury. He was hit on the knuckle by a shot during Saturday's 6-0 loss at the Florida Panthers. The captain is day-to-day and hopes to return Thursday.

Balance Thermo Ripped is a science-based thermogenic fat burner that attacks fat from all angles, ensuring rapid and total fat domination. The Thermo Ripped formula revolves around several powerful thermogenic supplements designed and carefully chosen to help you during an intense cutting phase or simply limit fat gain while bulking.
...quickly transports fat, allowing it to be easily converted to energy that will keep you fueled all day long.
...provides a big dose of caffeine that not only wakes you up, but dramatically sharpens your sense of alertness and focus.
...acts as an antioxidant, unleashing powerful polyphenols and fighting potentially harmful free radicals in the body.
...also contributes antioxidant protection, cleaning up anything missed by Green Tea.
...boost energy metabolism and work synergistically with Forskolin, a compound known for its ability to metabolise fat.
Whether you're a professional bodybuilder seeking single digit body fat or a recreational lifter trying to pack on muscle with limited fat gain, Thermo Ripped has the ingredients to make it happen.
Serving Size: 1 Capsule
Some fat burners, like Balance Thermo Ripped, rely on a set of ingredients called thermogenics. They're known for their ability to ramp up your body's metabolic rate, which increases the amount of calories you burn (energy expenditure). Most fat burners make use of thermogenic ingredients, but not all of them.
That's not an easy question - we carry a ton of thermogenic fat burners. To get started, check out our fat burner collection. If you're interested in thermogenic supplements but haven't used them before, you might want to do some reading before you get started. Not everyone responds to thermogenics in the same way.

Lil Wayne is staying busy while he's on the road for his I Am Still Music tour. In addition to hitting the stage in different cities, the rapper is also making some high-profile cameos. Last night, @LilTunechi stopped by the set of J-Lo's video "I'm Into You" to shoot his scene. The two music stars were side-by-side in front of the camera for Weezy's guest spot.
The video will make its world premiere on The Today Show on May 2, just one day before the release of Lopez' highly anticipated Love? album.

Bicycling to Budapest
I took leave of my Japanese friend Yumi on the eastern fringes of Gyor with a big goodbye and a hopeful "we'll meet again someday," and rode fast out of the city. It was mid-afternoon and I was making my way towards Budapest.
"First peddles, bicycle journey, feel so good," I spoke to myself as I speedily passed under a mess of highways on the outer shell of Gyor. I was then faced with a decision:
I could follow the dips and turns of the buff River Danube and ride out an ancient Path to Hungary's capital city, albeit it was on a motor road with the promise of a decent amount of traffic, or I could play it safe a smooth and straight bike path almost all the way to my glorious destination through a somewhat monotonic countryside. This was a Halliburton-esque battle of Romance versus Discretion.
Romance – the River Danube by my side and a highway full of cars, trucks, and other fast paced motor vehicles.
Discretion- a quaint and safe bicycle trail through central Hungary.
"Romance, Discretion, Romance, Discretion," I kept repeating to myself as I neared the intersection that was the crux of my decision. One way lead to the Danube, the other straight to Budapest.
"Discretion is nothing other than an unwooable old maid," I spoke the words of Halliburton.
Of course I chose Romance.
I chose wrong.

FORT GEORGE G. MEADE, Md. -- Defense Finance and Accounting Service warns of email scams targeting military members, military retirees, and civilian employees.
Scammers have even gone so far as to "spoof" DFAS email addresses so that the recipients would think it was actually coming from DFAS personnel. In a spoofing email, the scammer makes it appear that the message is coming from a legitimate source. This is to try to lure the reader into believing it's genuine.
DFAS officials are developing pages on their website to highlight their official email policy, examples of scam emails and law enforcement agencies that can initiate an investigation.
"As long as you keep your login credentials private and to yourself, then your account is pretty much assured a fairly decent amount of security.

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Will the Oscar go to "Button" or "Milk", or will "Slumdog" be top dog next month?
Final Oscar ballots were mailed on Wednesday to some 5,800 members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences who will cast their votes for the best 2008 movie, actor, actress, director and 20 other categories, organizers said.
The ballots -- still on paper despite the dominance of email and text messaging -- are due back on February 17, just ahead of the February 22 Oscar ceremony in Hollywood where the movie industry's highest honors are handed out.
They will be tabulated by accounting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers, who have never seen a breach of security concerning the winners in their 75 years of handling the Oscar ballots.
"The Curious Case of Benjamin Button", about a man born old who ages backward, leads the field with 13 Oscar nominations, including best film and best actor for Brad Pitt. The Mumbai rags-to-riches story "Slumdog Millionaire" has 10, while gay rights tale "Milk", post-Holocaust romance "The Reader" and political drama "Frost/Nixon" round out the best movie contenders.
Only two PricewaterhouseCoopers partners know the identity of the winners ahead of the live, televised Oscar ceremony. The envelopes with the winner's names are handed to award presenters immediately before they walk on stage, the accounting firm said.

Today's post publicly acknowledges and celebrates geekery, more specifically, my own. This is motivated by two things – first of all, a recent visit to Game On, a history of video games held at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image, and the completion of my first ever cross-stitch. Well, maybe not first ever – I might have done some when I was quite small – but it's safe to say it's the first time I've ever enjoyed it. Which is worth celebrating.
Oh. So many games. Three hours passed before I even thought to reach overload point. Best $10 I've spent in a while… The exhibition is organised into game families and chronology, and there are examples of everything, most of them playable. Nostalgia for anyone who has ever pushed a pixel. All I could think, everywhere I looked, was oh god, that would look great as a cross stitch.
This is my first successful embroidery. It is of Kirby, from Kirby's Dreamland, a game I used to play on my GameBoy in primary school. Look at him! Isn't he cute? Is he flying, or is he sucking up an enemy to use as firepower? I GUESS WE'LL NEVER KNOW.
The pattern came from my first and favorite geek craft site, Sprite Stitch. What an endless resource. But! For geek needlearts, look no further than the absolutely mindblowing Geek Central Station. They made an entire set of Firefly amigurumi!
Such amazing detail is included with the individual figures. Jayne even come with Vera!
Jayne 3Q Right Front , originally uploaded by artoo1121.
Or, if Firefly isn't your thing, gaze in wonder at Dr Zoidberg, everyone's favorite grotesque stinking lobster!
Zoidberg Front, originally uploaded by artoo1121.
If you wanted a piece of the action you could even kick it up a notch with a to crochet your own Spice Weasel lip balm cozy. BAM!
Other sites worth looking at is the 'geek craft' tag collection of *geeksugar, and Geek Crafts. Need to make anyone a Tardis cake? Find your inspiration here.
So, sometimes I'm a little embarrassed to own up to being a geek. My geek cred is pretty poor, really, when it comes down to it, but there nonetheless. However, if I'm ever feeling too geeky, I will remember the man who inserted an entire computer into a GameBoy, and I will remember, I'm not that bad. Yet. A computer in a GameBoy?? I do wonder a little, what's the point? But really, I imagine the point is that he could. Isn't that enough?

Enjoy a spa treatment
Chianciano Terme is a spa resort, the word 'terme' being the Italian for thermal bath. Its heyday was in the 50s and 60s as you'll note from the hotels. The baths themselves have a surprisingly sophisticated set-up with multiple pools, baths and treatments available.The staff at the main spa in Chianciano are incredibly helpful with plenty of information in English.
Visit a winery
Nearby Montepulciano is home to the famous Vino Nobile di Montepulciano and Rosso di Montepulciano wines. Situated under the Palazzo Tarugi and Palazzo Sinatti (two of the oldest buildings in the town) is the Talosa Cellar. Take a tour of these 16th century cellars which include an Etruscan tomb and then enjoy tasting these renowned wines or try the Cantina Contucci just off the Piazza Grande, where you can view how the city's jail was converted into a wine cellar.
Take a walk around Montepulciano
A beautiful Italian town full of Renaissance palaces, ancient churches, and charming squares. A walk through Montepulciano is the best way to view the town and its landmarks as well as enjoy stunning views of the surrounding countryside. Piazza Grande is the heart of Montepulciano and the setting for its main events, including the barrel-racing Bravio delle Botti contest held at the end of August.
Train trip to Florence
Trains leave from Chiusi, just 20 minutes drive from the house and in 1 hour 30 minutes you will be pulling in to Florence. One of the most beautiful cities in Italy, if not the world, Florence (or Firenze in Italian) must be visited, if only for a day. Surrounded by the beautiful Florentine hills, the city sits either side of the River Arno in a natural bowl. The 'centro storico' consists of an overwhelming abundance of Renaissance 'palazzi', museums and churches that are world famous for their beauty, art and history.
Train to Rome
Leaving from Chiusi, you can be in Rome by train in under 2 hours ready to explore the many sights of this city which has captured the imagination of visitors for millennia. The world's largest open air museum, a walk around the city will take you past the Colosseum, the Trevi Fountain, and the Spanish Steps - to name just a few of the famous landmarks. With so much to see a day's sightseeing will only afford a tantalising glimpse of what it has to offer.
Visit Siena
Often described as Florence's rival, Siena is well worth a visit. More gothic in style, this striking medieval town spills across three hill tops. Siena's heart is its unique central piazza, Il Campo, shaped like a shell with scalloped edges and known worldwide for the famous Palio run, a horse race that is run around the piazza every summer. The painters Duccio, Simone Martini and the Lorenzetti brothers made Siena their home and were among a host of brilliant artists who created the distinctive Sienese style.
Visit Perugia
The capital of the region and its largest city, Perugia is one of Umbria's best preserved medieval hills towns. A beautiful and elegant place, it teems with history, architecture and art yet at the same time, it is very much a modern city, vibrant and full of life with lots to see and do throughout the year. You may wish to take the 'Perugia City Tour' bus, which leaves Piazza Italia throughout the day or you may simply want to start wandering and discover the city at your own pace, stopping for a cappuccino at one of the many cafés, or to look in the windows of the stylish shops lining the Corso Vannucci.
Pienza - the city of cacio (cheese!)
This charming village is widely known as the "ideal city of the Renaissance", the creation of the great humanist Enea Silvio Piccolomini who later became Pope Pius II. Pienza is also the city of cacio, which means cheese! The Pecorino of Pienza is a tasty cheese made from sheep's milk, renowned worldwide and delicious. The town streets are full of small charming shops selling various types of pecorino that you can taste together with a number of other typical local products, such as fine wines, spices, and pici (handmade pasta). We recommend stopping and tasting!
Round of golf
There is a 9 hole golf course approximately 30 minutes drive from Mulino d'Anna, the Golf Club Valdichiana.
Take a boat trip
You can book a private boat trip across nearby Lake Trasimeno from Castiglione del Lago and Passignano. There are also public ferries that leave from the lakeside villages of Tuoro, Passignano and Castiglione regularly throughout the summer to Isola Maggiore in the middle of the lake.

How to Play Warhammer 40,000 with the basic 5th Edition rules
Warhammer 40,000 is one of the most popular and most derided games on the planet. Very few games are so fun, so harmless, and so beloved, and yet people who play are often labeled nerds and it has never caught in in mainstream America (different story in Europe and Australia, where it's HUGE). If you've been considering playing, you've come to the perfect place. Warhammer 40k is a complex game, but this video series will teach you everything you need to know to start playing. It uses the basic 5th Edition rules, which are standard, and should have you enjoying this tremendously rewarding game as soon as possible.

This 1963 Chevrolet Corvette 327/300 Convertible sold for $1,605,000 at Mecum's Chicago sale (photo courtesy of Mecum)
Mecum moved its annual Fall Premier auction 20 miles northeast from St. Charles, Ill., to the more convenient Schaumburg Convention Center. The Oct. 10-12, 2013, event showed strong gains, with $17.6M in total sales off of 590 vehicular lots sold. This is up from $11.6M in 2012 and $12.5M in 2011. Largely responsible for the increase was a boost in the sales rate, from 47% two years ago to 62% this year.
Most impressively, Mecum managed to sell a million-dollar Corvette for the second time in two sales. In Dallas it was a $3.424M 1967 L88 convertible, whereas in Chicago it was Harley Earl's own 1963 convertible that earned $1.605M, including commission. The car carried a number of unique design features — appropriate for America's preeminent design figurehead — and the amount paid was truly remarkable.
Some of the sale's other top consignments were not as fortunate, as the four-car Hurst "Hemi Under Glass" collection was bid up to $750,000 but didn't find a new home; the 1968 "Desert Rat" Yenko Camaro fell short at $440,000; and one of the 1967 Eleanors from the 2000 movie "Gone In 60 Seconds" stalled at $245,000. A 1970 Ford Boss 429 Mustang also missed reserve at $200,000
The Earl Corvette wasn't the only high-profile car to impress, however, as a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 sold for $535,000 — a price that acts as a counterpoint to those who would point to the previously mentioned no-sales as proof that top-tier American muscle is still lost in the wilderness. Mecum also set a world record of $72,760 for possibly the best 1978 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am in existence. On the lower end of the spectrum, a 1948 Willys Jeepster with an older restoration and the desirable 6-cylinder motor traded for a bargain $11,770.
Top 10
Mecum's next car sale is scheduled for Nov. 21-23, 2013, in Anaheim, Calif. This marks the second installment of Mecum's Los Angeles area presence, with last year's auction earning $15.0M.

Facebook: Good Company But Not A Great Stock!
- Facebook has successfully monetized mobile.
- Solid revenue growth marks Facebook in 2013.
- At current valuations, FB stock is overpriced.
Social Media Stocks like Facebook & Twitter have been the hottest internet stocks of 2013. Today we focus on Facebook (NASDAQ:FB), the social media giant. Will Facebook's exponential growth continue in 2014, or is a correction long due?
Facebook revenues grow with successful mobile monetization
Facebook had a turn-around in its financials this year as compared to the dip in 2012, especially due to the successful monetization of its mobile user base. Year on year growth in 2013 averaged at 50%, while operating margin went back to its pre IPO levels of 37% in the recent quarter. The road ahead is also filled up with opportunities, with Facebook's new launch of video ads, which is expected to generate around 15%-20% of additional revenue. The company has the largest worldwide active user-base of 1.2 billion with maximum engagement as compared to its peers. However, the question remains whether Facebook can successfully monetize it to its benefit.
Facebook financials: a detailed look
On the revenue front Facebook is growing at a rate lower than its 3 year compounded annual growth rate. However, the company is growing at a far higher rate as compared to industry average growth numbers. Moreover, both its net income margin and operating margins are at higher levels than its 3 year average. So overall, our revenue and accretion score for Facebook stands at 4.
Facebook Income statement Score: 4/5
Facebook Valuation Analysis
The company is currently trading at an annualized price to earnings ratio of 138, which is way above industry average. Also the price to sales ratio of 21.3 & price to book ratio 11.9 currently is too high for comfort. Therefore, our rating for relative valuation as compared to industry average stands at 2.
Our Facebook Relative Valuation Analysis (as compared to industry analysis score): 2/5
Facebook Free Cash Flow, ROE and ROIC Analysis
At a return on equity (ROE) of 13%, and Return on invested capital (ROIC) of 30%, the company has provided good returns to its shareholders and other investors. Facebook also generates a healthy free cash flow, with a free cash flow to sales margin of 33% in the latest quarter. We rate this key parameter at 4.2.
Our Facebook Free Cash Flow, ROE and ROIC Score: 4/5
Overall Weighted Score for FB stock: 4/5
Facebook Valuation based on future estimates

|Expected revenue for 2015
|Current Market Cap of FB
|Forward price to sales ratio
|Estimated price to sales ratio
|Expected Market Capitalization
|Expected stock price
For the analysis, we assume Facebook's growth at 60%. Although it might sound like a high number to some, and surely a challenging number for Facebook to achieve, we feel Facebook has good growth opportunities and can continue to generate the current growth numbers few years into the future. That being said, even at an estimated growth of 60%, Facebook forward PS multiple of 6.8 is too high for comfort. Using an estimated PS ratio of 5 for the industry, we are getting a fair price of $52 per share, showing a downside risk of 10% from its current price of $58.23 a share.
With our financial analysis score of 4 out of 5, where 5 stands for the best, Facebook shows a picture of solid growth and healthy profitability. However, we feel that these growth expectations have already been factored into the current price levels. Valuations levels are too high for investment at this time, as indicated by our low relative valuation score of 2, which is below the acceptable level of 3. The company will have thus to over perform the analysts' expectations to gain further valuations. Q4 results are keenly awaited by investors. View our Facebook stock analysis.

Japan's economy is stagnant and its future direction unclear, the Government's Economic Planning Agency said yesterday in its monthly economic report. ''Some favorable signs for market sentiment can be seen, such as in recent stock movements, but severe corporate and consumer sentiment have affected consumer spending and business investment and the economy is stagnant,'' the report said.
The agency has used the word ''stalled'' to describe the economy since November, but Akira Furukawa, director of the agency's Economic Research Bureau, said the word was too upbeat. Downgrading its assessment of three key indicators, the agency said consumer spending was at low levels, growth in capital spending had slowed and inventories were high.

That is moderately epic, because it has been almost a year since the Vikings were a road favorite – for the record it was Week 4 of last year when the Vikings lost to Kansas City 22-17. But even more surprising is that, if the Vikings win Sunday, which the Boys from The Outfit say should happen, it will be considerably rarer than most Vikings fans would think.
Since 2001, a span of 11 seasons, the Vikings have started 2-0 just three times. The last time was in 2009, when the Vikings rolled up a 12-4 record and ran all the way to New Orleans and the NFC Championship Game. Before we get ahead ourselves, however, the other two seasons in which the Viking started 2-0, they finished 6-10 and 9-7, respectively, and missed the playoffs both years.
The good news, however, is that the Vikings started 0-2 the last two seasons and never recovered from the early hole they dug themselves. To get off to a 2-0 start – even if they've been favored to win both – is the ideal elixir for the hangover-style headache Vikings fans have had the last two years.
Just as a 0-2 start creates a panic mode in a team that often leaves them with little alternative than to run off a series of wins to attempt to make up for the early deficit, a 2-0 start leaves wiggle room for struggles down the line. Since 2008, only two teams that started 0-2 made the playoffs, one of them being the 2008 Vikings (lest we forget Frerotte Mania). Almost two-thirds of the teams that have started 2-0 since 1990 made the playoffs. Granted, the Vikings have posted two of the non-playoff teams in that scenario.
For now, the Vikings were just happy to pull a win last Sunday from the jaws of defeat.
"Our biggest thing was finish. We said that before the game," receiver Percy Harvin said. "Coach, he didn't scream at us, but he reiterated that at halftime and everybody was just finish, finish, finish. He said it (Monday) in the team meetings, to be on the opposite side of that this year felt a little bit better."
A 2-0 start won't guarantee the Vikings anything but bragging rights early on in the 2012 season, but, for the first time in three years, Vikings fans will be walking tall on Monday and, given the fact that Chicago is playing at Green Bay and Detroit is playing at San Francisco, when Monday arrives, the Vikings, if the Vegas odds hold true, will stand alone atop the NFC North.

Have you read Ernest Cline's novel, Ready Player One yet? It's a fun book that postulates a not too distant future where the real world has pretty much gone to heck but there's a cyberspace world, called Oasis — one part video game and one part virtual reality — where everyone goes to escape. The plot involves a big hunt for a hidden treasure but one of the aspects of Oasis that I found interesting was that there were schools in there. These schools mean kids can get an education no matter where they are, assuming they can get an Oasis connection (and WiFi connectivity is the one thing that hasn't gone down the tubes in the world described in the book). So our hero hides out all day in an abandoned van and attends school in cyberspace. How cool is that?
Yesterday Apple held a big announcement about the future of textbooks in electronic form. James Gaskin covered the event for ITworld so if you somehow missed the news you should read that first. As cool as interactive textbooks are, they don't really have much of an impact on me since I long ago left the scholastic system behind. The chance of me sitting down with a textbook to slog through is pretty slim.
The announcement that really caught my eye was the release of an iTunes U app for iOS devices. iTunes U lets you take high school and collegiate courses, for free. It's an awesome resource; finally Apple has released something that caused me to dust off my iPad and leave my Android tablet alone for a day.
I just had to test this out and because no sacrifice is too great for my readers, I decided to fire up a course called Intermediate Algebra, taught by Pamela Watkins of HACC (Harrisburg Area Community College). It's been a long time since I did any algebra but back in the day I kind of liked math so figured it'd come back to me.
So here's how it works. First you "subscribe" to the course you want to take. It downloads some framework files onto your iPad (or other iOS device). There are 4 tabs along the right side of the course framework, and Posts is where all the good stuff is.
In the case of Intermediate Algebra, the first post prompted me to download a "Meet the Teacher" file in which Ms. Watkins introduced herself, shared her teaching credentials and a picture of her dog (really). OK so we're trying to convey that she's a real person. Moving on...
The next post was labeled 1.1 Solving Linear Equations. Step 1 asked me to download and print out a handout. Downloading wasn't a problem but I don't have an iPad friendly printing solution. The good news is that when I tapped on the handout to open it (it was a PDF) I could use the "Open In..." menu to access Dropbox. This let me upload the file to my Dropbox account, and from there I hopped onto my PC and printed out the handout. If you have an Airprint printer this part will be much easier.
The handout turned out to be one slide and 7 algebra equations waiting to be solved. I marked getting the handout step as done (every step includes a 'Completed' checkbox to help you track where you left off) and went to the next step, which was to download and watch a podcast. Actually the next two steps were downloading part 1 and part 2 of the same podcast; it seems iTunes U likes to keep sessions to 15 minutes, which makes fitting a session into a busy day pretty easy.
So I fired up Part 1 of the podcast and found myself looking at an electronic version of the same handout I had, with Ms. Watkins talking in a language that seemed completely foreign for a few seconds but that I then realized was math. I kid, Watkins actually did a great job of introducing the material. As she talked, she wrote on her 'whiteboard' to illustrate the concepts she was discussing. At certain points she askes the student to pause the podcast and attempt the next equation (the handout leaves plenty of room for working the problem). She then walks through the solution. Part 2 of the podcast was more of the same except it introduced more abstract concepts. The point of this post isn't to review this course but to describe the experience of using iTunes U, so I'll leave off the math talk for now.
That's as far as I got in one night, but looking ahead the next few sections are about word problems and follow the same structure of using a handout and then a podcast to give theory and hands-on practice. After that is a self-assessment section.
I have to say, I'm delighted so far. Algebra is a pretty obscure topic for a man of my age to be studying, but there's a wide range of topics covered in iTunes U. Everything from science and math to history, literature, and most specific topics like iPad App Development. Of course self-assessment for a math course is relatively easy: did you solve the problem correctly or not. It'll be interesting to see what, if any, self-assessment is included in, say, a history course.
Most of the content appears to be free but now and then some of the materials include a charge. For instance in a course called American Revolution, taught by Joanne Freeman of Yale University, one of the supplemental materials is a book (The Minutemen and Their World by Robert A Gross) that costs $9.99. You could probably skip that if you really had to.
Anyway I'm generally not a huge fan of Apple, but I have to say I'm really impressed by this iTunes U app and the content it holds. I guess a lot of these courses have been available via the iTunes Store for some time, but I wasn't aware of them and doubt I would've taken advantage of them if it meant sitting in front of my computer for another hour every day. Having it on the iPad where I can take it to my favorite easy chair to relax and learn? And it's free to boot? That's just amazing. I tip my hat to Apple, and wait to see if Google can come up with a response.
