Death Star Plans

Many Bothans died to bring us these plans.

Kittens

This is a scientific diagram illustrating the cuteness of juvenile felines. It shows one such specimen basking in the warm midday sun to rejuvenate it's stamina before a long afternoon of purring and rubbing against people's legs.

ICT Enhanced Learning and Teaching Process Model

I have been working on a process model and framework, adapted from earlier theoretical and practical examples. In the process, I have attempted to develop a set of tools that help answer the question "Where do I start?" for practitioners who are unfamiliar with adapting education resources to make effective use of ICT Enhanced Learning and Teaching (ICTELT). Employing a scaffolded approach appropriate for working in small teams, or as individuals, the guiding questions form the foundation for collaborative discussion of design choices, ICT tool selection, and the incorporation of a range of pedagogical approaches with a variety of tools. The model and framework can be used with new and/or existing programmes, modules, units, sessions, or learning objects, but initially practitioners are encouraged to trial the process on a small scale.

Polymorphism (COMP1004)

In this session we build on inheritance and look at overriding methods and dynamic binding. Together these give us Polymorphism - the third pillar of Object Oriented Programming - and a very powerful feature that allows us to build methods that deal with superclasses, but whose calls get redirected when we pass in sub-classes.
