This 4 week facilitated workshop will cover the following topics: Week 1: Getting Started. Select a Moodle activity and join your team. Learn how to navigate, view & change course settings, profile options, work with files & folders, access and use editing tools. Week 2: Moodle Resources. Learn how to add a label, compose a webpage, link to a web site and link to a file. Research and learn about your selected Moodle activity. Week 3: Moodle Activities. Develop a learning module with example activities and resources to teach team members how to create and use your selected Moodle activity. The 10 Moodle activities are: assignments, chat, choice, forums, glossary, hot potatoes quiz, journal, survey, wiki, workshop. Week 4: Learn & Share. Complete the other learning modules developed by your team to Learn how to create and use other Moodle activities. Share your learning experience with all course participants.

NRI develops chip to contain entire library
by Ramakant Navghare 30 Apr '10

30 Apr '10

To, Dear All, An Indian-American scientist has developed a computer chip that can store an unprecedented amount of data - enough to hold an entire library. The new chip stems from a breakthrough in the use of nanodots, or nanoscale magnets, and represents a significant advance in computer-memory technology. "We have created magnetic nanodots that store one bit of information on each nanodot, allowing us to store over one billion pages of information in a chip that is one square inch," says Jay Narayan, professor of Materials Science and Engineering at North Carolina State University (NCSU). Narayan, a product of the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Kanpur, conducted the study. The breakthrough is that these nanodots are made of single, defect-free crystals, creating magnetic sensors that are integrated directly into a silicon electronic chip. These nanodots, which can be made uniformly as small as six nanometres in diameter, are all precisely oriented in the same way - allowing programmers to reliably read and write data to the chips, an NCSU release said. A nanometre is the billionth of a metre. The chips themselves can be manufactured cost-effectively but the next step is to develop magnetic packaging that will enable users to take advantage of the chips - using something, such as laser technology, that can effectively interact with the nanodots. The research was presented at the Materials Research Society Spring Meeting in San Francisco. -- Thank You, Regards, Ramakant Amar Navghare (M.L.I.Sc/NET) Administrator, Knowledge Management --------------------------------------------------------- KPMG Lodha Excellus Apollo Mills Compound, N.
