" This course provides you with a framework to understand the structure and dynamics of high-tech businesses, together with an approach for their effective strategic management. It is focused on domains in which systems are important, because either or both products are parts of larger and more complex systems, or they are comprised of systems. The domains covered include computing, communications (in particular the mobile and IP domains), consumer electronics, industrial networking, automotive, aerospace and medical devices. The course will be of particular interest to those interested in managing a business in which technology will likely play a major role, and also to those interested in investing in or providing counsel to these businesses. The emphasis throughout is on the development and application of ways of thinking or mental models that bring clarity to the complex co-evolution of technological innovation, the demand opportunity, systems architecture, business ecosystems, and decision-making and execution within the business."

Our linked subjects are (1) the historical process by which the meaning of technology has been constructed, and (2) the concurrent transformation of the environment. To explain the emergence of technology as a pivotal word (and concept) in contemporary public discourse, we will examine responses--chiefly political and literary--to the development of the mechanic arts, and to the linked social, cultural, and ecological transformation of 19th- and 20th-century American society, culture, and landscape.

"This class will be constructed as a lecture-discussion, the purpose being to engage important theoretical issues while simultaneously studying their continuing historical significance. To enhance discussion, three debates will be held in class. Each student will be required to participate in one of these debates. Each student will also be required to write three short papers. Class participation is essential and will be factored into the final grade.The course will portray the history of theory neither as the history of architectural theory exclusively, nor as a series of prepackaged static pronouncements, but as part of a broader set of issues with an active history that must be continually probed and queried. The sequence of topics will not be absolutely predetermined, but some of the primary issues that will be addressed are: pedagogy, professionalism, nature, modernity and the Enlightenment. Classroom discussions and debates are intended to demonstrate differences of opinion and enhance awareness of the consequences that these differences had in specific historical contexts."

El uso del Raspberry Pi, como computadora de bajo costo, fue un proyecto piloto con estudiantes de la Universidad Estatal a Distancia (UNED).
Con estos video tutoriales podrá contar con herramientas modulares de consulta para llegar a la respuesta buscada ante diferentes situaciones que se le puedan presentar al trabajar con un Raspberry Pi.
Estos materiales parten de situaciones reales o posibles que pueden suceder a la hora de utilizar un dispositivo como este, y cada elemento presente en los videos se explica en forma detallada. Usted tendrá la opción de hacer diferentes acciones, que van desde el primer acercamiento al dispositivo hasta hacer cambios en los programas que trae preinstalados.
Además, los videos presentan procedimientos completos que permiten realizar una o dos acciones como máximo, de manera que se convierten en cápsulas específicas para lograr una conexión, un ajuste o una acción similar.
Cada video tiene asignada una o varias etiquetas, por lo que hay agrupaciones de temas que permiten revisar los videos similares en una misma pantalla. Como algunos videos tienen más de una etiqueta, aparecen en diferentes agrupaciones.

For vegetative growth and development, plants require, within reach of their roots, water of adequate quality, in appropriate quantity and at the right time. Most of the water a plant absorbs performs the function of raising dissolved nutrients from the soil to the aerial organs, from where it is released to the atmosphere by transpiration: agricultural water use is intrinsically consumptive. Crops have specific water requirements, and these vary depending on local climatic conditions. this first lesson students will be introduced to different methods of irrigation. These methods are specifically associated to vineyards, however they could be adapted to address irrigation methods that are used in your area. You will need computers and internet access for this lesson. Students will be creating digital infographics that will be used as resources in an app they will create as the culminating project.

Lasers are essential to an incredibly large number of applications. Today, they are used in bar code readers, compact discs, medicine, communications, sensors, materials processing, computer printers, data processing, 3D-imaging, spectroscopy, navigation, non-destructive testing, chemical processing, color copiers, laser "shows", and in the military. There is hardly a field untouched by the laser. But what exactly is so unique about lasers that makes them so effective? This brief video course is designed for engineers, scientists, medical personnel, managers, and others who work with lasers and/or fiberoptics, or who anticipate working with lasers and/or fiberoptics, yet have little or no background in laser or fiberoptic basics. The course focuses on fundamentals and emphasizes a physical intuitive interpretation of laser and fiberoptic phenomena and their applications. Because Prof. Ezekiel keeps mathematics to a minimum, the topics covered are easily understood, without the need for a strong technical background. Prof. Ezekiel uses plain language, graphic illustrations, and video demonstrations to explain the basic characteristics of lasers and fiberoptics. High quality versions of the videos are also available through Zeelase. These videos were produced by the MIT Center for Advanced Engineering Study.
