Lovely story book, published by the National Biodiversity Authority (NBA). Get your children to read it; you read it too. Short, sweet, topical.

"The Land Where The Sticker Tree Grows" offers a simple glance at urban and peri-urban environments to capture the conflict between biodiversity and modernization.

"The most successful LX designers today are delivering content that brings in outside influences to cultivate engagement. They use technology to foster connections to faculty, other students and real-world experiences that make online courses more meaningful to students."

The term “user experience” or “UX” wasn’t always an overused Silicon Valley buzzword. Coined in the mid ‘90s by Don Norman, while he was vice president of advanced technology at Apple, it refers to an abstract way to describe the relationship between a product and a human. Back then, Norman argue

"The book gave me the vocabulary to figure out how to listen for my dream—how we have to have a dream, and if we don’t have a dream, we have to listen, and listen to our instincts, and listen to the signs that the universe does send to us, so that we can figure out what that dream is, so that we have a purpose in life."

There are some books that can transform how a teacher sees himself. For English teacher Ray Salazar, that book is "The Alchemist."

From ancient trade to modern theoretical physics and computer programming, the history of mathematics closely mirrors the history of zero – first as a concept, and then ultimately as a number. Narrated by the UK mathematician Hannah Fry, this short animation explores how the evolution of the underst...

FoID (Foundations of Instructional Design) is a workshop being conducted by Punam Medh of iDesign Skills. Knowing Ms. Medh, this promises to be a stellar programme, one which is practice-oriented, rather than plain theory. It is a 3-day programme, aimed at those who are looking for a systematic process- based approach to their work.

Highly recommended.
