Inaugural Lecture: It’s Third Space, Jim, but not as we know it: universities...Alex Dunedin
?
This is a podcast of the Inaugural Lecture of Professor Keith Smyth at the University of the Highlands and Islands: "It’s Third Space, Jim, but not as we know it: universities, community and digital practice"
Keith Smyth talks about the new and innovative ways that the digital can be used to support learning, and how the idea of empowering the learners can be an important space to set up for inventive learning and education. Getting the tools to create and the latitude to be creative can often be a missing element from education.
The lecture covers a great deal of ground which you can listen to and see the slides which accompany his talk when he officially accepted the Professorial role in the UHI.

Synchro erp scheduling for casting manufacturer'sVictoria Smith

This document discusses tools for scheduling foundry operations. It notes that each foundry requires unique scheduling tools due to differences in capacity constraints like time, moulding box availability, and oven capacity. It outlines considerations for processes like rack or stack moulding, investment foundries, and pressure diecasting that affect scheduling. The document also covers scheduling by time, job sequencing, splitting production runs, highlighting anomalies, automatic rescheduling, bottleneck monitoring, and configurable data screens and filters. The goal is to provide a toolkit of scheduling features tailored to each foundry's specific needs and constraints.
The document discusses the need for more sidewalks and bike lanes in Hawaii. It notes that currently there are few sidewalks and bike lanes, forcing many to drive even for short trips. This has environmental impacts from increased emissions and economic impacts from higher fuel costs. Having more walking and biking infrastructure would encourage active transportation, reducing costs while improving health and the environment. The solution proposed is to build more sidewalks and bike lanes, especially around schools, to create a more sustainable transportation system.
