Cabo Verde is an archipelago of 10 volcanic islands located in the Atlantic Ocean, 640 km west of Senegal. It has its own musical genres like morna, funaná, and coladera. Cesária ?vora is Cape Verde's most famous singer, known as the "barefoot diva" for performing barefoot. After gaining independence in 1975, Cape Verdean art flourished as artists expressed the newfound freedom and joy. Today Cape Verde's culture is influenced by other countries. Traditional Cape Verdean cuisine includes dishes like cachupa, similar to Portuguese bean stew.

Beth learned how to create and use several new tools for sharing information online, including a wiki, RSS aggregator, blog, and web publishing tools. She found the tools to be very user-friendly and sees great potential for using them in both her personal and professional life to help coordinate plans and share resources. Specifically, she thinks a teacher blog would be useful for sharing ideas and successes with other teachers in her district.

The document discusses instructional design models and processes. It describes the traditional ADDIE model which involves 5 phases: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. It also discusses other instructional design models and processes like Gagne's 9 instructional events, Instructional Systems Design (ISD), and the ASSURE model. A key theme is that instructional design is an iterative collaborative process that should be learner-centered and focus on usability.
The document outlines different methods for growing and harvesting algae to produce algae fuel. Open pond growing is the most natural but least controlled method, while closed-tank bioreactors allow for the largest production of algae indoors. After algae is produced, various extraction methods can remove 75-100% of oil from the algae to create "green crude," which can then be processed into drop-in replacement fuels like gasoline and jet fuel through transesterification and refining similarly to conventional oil. Algae is a promising source for fuel as it can grow rapidly using CO2 and sunlight.
Este documento define la disnea respiratoria y describe su fisiopatología. Explica que la disnea es la sensación subjetiva de dificultad para respirar y puede evaluarse por su intensidad. Describe la anatomía y fisiología del sistema respiratorio, incluida la ventilación, perfusión y difusión de gases.

Southeast Asian prehistory spans thousands of years and includes early human migration to the region as well as the development of complex civilizations. The earliest evidence of human habitation in Southeast Asia dates back over 50,000 years ago during the Pleistocene era. Archaeological sites from this period contain stone tools and evidence that early humans hunted now-extinct animals.
This document outlines the course description, goals, themes, textbook, and major assignments for an Advanced Placement United States History class. The year-long course is a rigorous survey of American history from pre-Columbian era to present. Solid reading, writing, and study skills are needed. Emphasis is placed on critical thinking, essay writing, and interpreting primary sources. Major assignments include unit essays, a document-based question essay, and a term paper. The course follows a textbook and uses primary source documents.
The document provides information about designing structures according to Eurocodes. It introduces the Eurocodes as a common set of structural design standards adopted by EU member states. Each member state will adopt the Eurocodes but account for local differences in their National Annex. The document lists the 10 Eurocode standards covering various structural elements and notes that the British Standards Institution has published a free companion guide to help understand applying the Eurocodes. It provides guidance on searching for Eurocodes using the NTU Library database and lists some relevant book titles available in the library collection.

Cabo Verde is an archipelago of 10 volcanic islands located off the west coast of Africa. It gained independence from Portugal in 1975. The culture of Cabo Verde is influenced by its Portuguese and African roots. Some key aspects of Cabo Verde culture discussed in the document include music genres like morna, funaná, and coladera and popular singer Cesária ?vora. The art that emerged after independence expressed freedom and joy. Creole is the most widely spoken language, being an Africanized form of Portuguese. Local cuisine blends Portuguese, African, and international influences, with one traditional dish being cachupa.
