History of Quebec and Canada
Hi, I uptdated some of the questions on your History of Quebec and Canada guide, but I didn't know the answers. Do you?--Rayc | (Talk) 23:29, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

History of Quebec and Canada Study Guide
Hi Mikec, I just wanted to say "good work" on History of Quebec and Canada/Study Guide/Topic 1: Reasons for Exploration. It looks nice and well-thought out - though the title is slightly unwieldy, don't you think? Could we think up a more compact one without damaging the structure you see it fitting in to? Cormaggio 10:56, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Hey there. Looks like you're doing good work with this. Mind adding a more specific explanation on the front page of this guide explaining what the context of the course is? Ultimately, I'd like to see us generalize the material you have there into a useful course in the School of History designed for everyone in the world, but you may as well finish this version first, to help students in that particular class. Jade Knight 20:20, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the reply, Mike. Well, the way you're linking to pages is fine, of course - through simply creating a link to it from one page and then editing it (though there are a number of pages in the study guide which aren't linked to from History of Quebec and Canada/Study Guide - see Category:History of Quebec and Canada). I was just commenting on the naming of pages - ie. being possibly unnecessarily long. But that's no big problem. If you want to keep them the way they are, that's ok. Or, if you'd like to change them slightly, you can do that through the "(page) move" function (it's a button two across from the edit button) - for example, move "History of Quebec and Canada/Study Guide/Topic 1: Reasons for Exploration" to "History of Quebec and Canada/Reasons for Exploration". However, I think I'm beginning to realise that Wikiversity will foster complex page names - so the naming of your course is really up to you. I would only apply a general maxim - anywhere - of: "keep the structure as simple and intuitive as possible". Cheers! Cormaggio 10:22, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Hello!
Hi there. Check out my edits to History of Quebec and Canada/Study Guide/Topic 2: Cartier's Voyages - I hope this is the effect you were trying to achieve with the learning materials? --HappyCamper 01:02, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Javascript
Hi Mike, I'm not sure what kind of permission you are looking for. Is it that you want to upload files that are in a proprietary format? If so, there's really nothing I can do in an immediate sense. In this case, I would recommend that you try to work around it (eg. by finding an alternative format), or raising this issue on a broader channel (such as the foundation-l mailing list - which I could also do). However, if I've misinterpreted your situation, please clarify to help me understand your needs. Cormaggio 13:43, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi Mikec, I noticed your request for assistance at Cormaggio's talk page. There is a learning project or infrastructure activity setup to develop the capability of delivering java applets from within the mediawiki pages here at Wikiversity. There is at least another page describing the current status and progress. Aha! I think user Airwolf at Wikipedia is heading it up and he has some code loaded at sourceforge. Maybe the test page was at the meta site. It did not work for me but my system currently has known problems. Anyway, I hope the capability shows up soon. I need it too at here and here. If you are familar with Java we could sure use some help occasionally when the neophytes start dropping by with their game designs in hand. Mirwin 08:54, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

=response= As you can see since 1998 ( thanks to evidence from web.archive.org) I have had a web presence for my original material:

1998 Baldwin Cartier School Board

I developed the materials and was given authority (ftp+password) to upload them to this site. Example: http://web.archive.org/web/19980121172227/www.baldwin.qc.ca/history/

"Prepared by Michael Carley and provided by Baldwin Cartier School Board"

2002 LESTER B PEARSON SCHOOL BOARD

I developed the materials and was given authority (ftp+password) to upload them to this site.

Since my retirement I have developed and added new material to this site.

Example: http://web.archive.org/web/20020603020351/http://www.lbpsb.qc.ca/~history/

1999 QESN

I developed the materials and was given authority (ftp+password) to upload them to this site. Example: http://web.archive.org/web/19991114032916/http://www.qesn.meq.gouv.qc.ca/history/toolkit.htm#QUESTIONS

"These multiple choice questions were constructed by Michael Carley,

Social Studies consultant at the Baldwin Cartier School Board."

QESNRECIT and LEARN reformatted them and removed my upload authority. The latter adding a © symbol to its page.

2002 QESNRECIT

if you would like to contribute materials to the site, please send an email to Christine Truesdale at ctruesdale @ qesnrecit.qc.ca

I developed the materials and sent them to this site. Example: http://web.archive.org/web/20020414142042/www.qesnrecit.qc.ca/socialsciences/cycles45/frameset.html

"These review lessons were created and developed by Michael Carley Social Studies consultant at the Lester B. Pearson School Board."

"These review lessons were created and developed by Michael Carley Social Studies consultant at the Lester B. Pearson School Board."

As you can see from the chain of evidence I am the original author of this material. At all time (except after I sent it to QESNRECIT and LEARN) I was in control of the material. I wrote,coded, uploaded, edited, and tested all the material. Collaborators (much like wiki) reviewed and edited within the original framework.

I do not know Bev White ( LearnQuebec) I gave QESN the material 5 years ago, and as you can see from the history of the use of the materials, how can they ask that they be credited for the content of this course, after I gave it to them and all they did was to format and host it. In their adult section they don't host it but simply link to it.

Finally to quote from your site:

"You acquire copyright automatically when you create an original work or other subject matter."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Copyright_FAQ#What_is_copyright.3F

"A copyright gives you the sole right to produce or reproduce your work"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Copyright_FAQ#What_is_copyright.3F

I appreciate that you have volunteered to work on the site and are placed in a difficult position when a third party who places a © symbol on their page requests its removal, however the evidence I have presented shows that under all the circumstances stated I retain the right to reproduce my work. I let them use it, not coypyright it.

Wikiversity translations/De to En archive

Original German - Scope of research - #2
Zunächst ein genereller Hinweis: Eine Unterscheidung zwischen original research und secondary research ist im deutschsprachigen Kulturraum unbekannt. Der alleinige Begriff ist dort „Forschung“ und impliziert als solcher stets eine über die Beschäftigung mit Literatur hinausgehende methodische Vorgehensweise.
 * 1) Die Diskussion sollte mit einer Definition des Begriffes „Forschung“ einsetzen. Einer im deutschsprachigen Wissenschaftsbetrieb geläufigen Formulierung folgend schlagen wir hierzu folgendes vor: „Forschung ist die methodische Suche nach Erkenntnis“.
 * 2) Aus unserer Sicht ist Forschung in hohem Maße disziplinabhängig. Daraus folgt, dass jeder Fachbereich für sich entscheiden sollte, welche Art von Forschung erlaubt sein sollte. Eine allgemeinverbindliche Regel für alle Fachbereiche in Wikiversity erscheint uns problematisch.
 * 3) Bisher haben die einzelnen Sprachversionen der verschiedenen Wikimedia-Projekte ihre eigene inhaltliche Ausrichtung sowie ihre internen Arbeitsabläufe selber bestimmt (beispielsweise unterscheiden sich sowohl die deutschsprachige Wikipedia als auch das deutschsprachige Wikisource-Projekt erheblich von ihren jeweiligen Pendants in englischer Sprache). Dies trägt zur geistigen Vielfalt bei und sollte auch für Wikiversity gelten. Deshalb schlagen wir vor, die Entscheidung über die Arten der erlaubten Forschung nicht nur den einzelnen Fachbereichen, sondern auch den einzelnen Sprachversionen zu überlassen.

machine translation then human edited and revised)
This is a translation from German to English that was generated by the online AltaVista translator (original German version at the German language Scope of research page, section #2) followed by some edits by smithgrrl--Smithgrrl 01:03, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

"First a general observation: the distinction between "primary" and "secondary" research is unknown in German cultural practice. Thus, the only relevant term here is"research" and, as such, this term implies a set of critical methodologies. that transcend the merely literary.

1. The discussion should begin with a definition of the term "research". Subsequently, we would like to suggest the following formulation, which is common to German-language science enterprises: "research is the methodical search for knowledge".

2. From our point of view the definition of "research" per se, is to a considerable degree, discipline dependent. Hence it follows that the area specialists of each area should decide for themselves, what is meant by research and what kind of research it should be permitted to do. A universally binding rule for all specialist areas in Wikiversity appears to us problematic.

3. Thus far the individual language versions of the different Wikimedia projects have independently determined their own content and direction, as well as their internal operational procedures (for example, both both the German-language Wikipedia and the German-language Wikisource project differ substantially from their respective counterparts in the English language). This state of affairs is positive in that it contributes to intellectual diversity, and this principle should apply to Wikiversity as well. Therefore we would suggest that, the decision, as to what kinds of research should be permitted, should be left to the invididual specialist areas as well as the individual language versions."

Im IRC sind wir nach einigem überlegen zum Ergebnis gekommen, dass die wahrscheinlich beste Übersetzung, die Aufteilung in "vergleichende Forschung und (sonstige) Forschung" ist. Eine andere Übersetzung erscheint nicht sinvoll. Ebenso ist der Zusatz "aktive Forschung" eher ungewöhnlich und wird in anderem Zusammenhang verwendet. Aschoeke

Machine translated, needs "the human touch": further edits by smithgrrl --Smithgrrl 04:48, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

After some thought, we on IRC #wikiversity-en came to the conclusion that probably the best translation is to divide the categories into "comparative research and further (single-focus?) research". Another translation does not appear to have much meaning. Likewise the additional phrase "active research" is rather odd and is used in a different context. Aschoeke

Ich sehe einen Anteil der Unterscheidung "original research"/"secondary research" in dem deutschen Begriffspaar: „empirische Forschung“/„Literaturstudium und Dokumentation“ wiedergegeben. --Purodha 00:55, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Wenn die Komitee-Regelung sein sollte, dir Wikipedia-Regel no original research hier durchzusetzen, dann sollten wir imho das Projekt in Wiki-Kolleg umtaufen. --Purodha 00:55, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Machine translated, needs the attention of a human:further edits by smithgrrl--Smithgrrl 04:54, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

I see a portion of the distinction "original research"/"secondary research" implied in the German terms: "empirical Research"/"Literature and Documentation". --Purodha 00:55, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

If the committee regulation means to implement your Wikipedia rule here about "NO original research" then we should imho rename the project in Wiki-Colleg. --Purodha 00:55, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Hi
Hi Talonhawk, and welcome (again) - thanks for your comments so far, and I definitely hope you can bring something to Wikiversity (as it looks like you do). Will you be mostly working on the areas of computer science? Cormaggio 07:48, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Yes, most likely I will stay with what I know, and I know I still have much to learn. I have always thought that the best way to learn higher levels of any skill or area of knowledge is to teach what you already know. Talonhawk 18:21, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

School:Computer engineering

Computer Engineering (also sometimes given the title 'Electronic and Computer Engineering') is a discipline that combines elements of both School:Electrical engineering and School:Computer Science[1]. Computer engineers are electrical engineers that have additional training in the areas of software design and hardware-software integration. In turn, they focus less on power electronics and physics. Computer engineers are involved on all aspects of computing, from the design of individual microprocessors, personal computers, and supercomputers, to circuit design, as well as the integration of computer systems into other kinds of systems (a motor vehicle, for example, has a number of subsystems that are computer and digitally oriented)[2]. Common computer engineering tasks include writing embedded software for real-time microcontrollers, designing VLSI chips, working with analog sensors, designing mixed signal circuit boards, and designing operating systems. Computer engineers are also well-suited for research in the field of robotics, which relies on using computers together with other electrical systems.

Talk:Science as religion

This totally doesn't belong under Evolutionary Biology. Let's move it to sociology, philosophy, or religious studies. -Tom Hmm. I have to say that if the goal is really to "understand the relationship between science and religion", using the title "Science as Religion" is not a good start... - dcljr 08:03, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

 * "using the title 'Science as Religion' is not a good start" <-- why not? --JWSchmidt 12:32, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Well, the stated goal of the project makes it sound like it's trying to be an unbiased investigation, but the very title of the project (not to mention the first source article linked to) is very one-sided. Not only does it rhetorically subjugate science to religion, it confuses (in my opinion) what science and religion actually are (simply put: science is not a kind of religion, by the very definitions of the two concepts that people generally accept). Now, I'll assume that this title was chosen because it's actually the very idea that science is a kind of religion that this module is trying to address. If so, this needs to be more clearly explained in the description of the project. In other words, are you actually investigating science or a certain perspective some people have on science? The distinction is an important one. In the first case ("let's investigate science as a kind of religion"), the exercise is starting off with a strong underlying assumption (I would say a false premise) that needs to be questioned. In the second case ("let's investigate this idea that science is a religion"), the description of the project should be rewritten to clarify this as being the objective. And finally, if the goal is as currently written ("let's investigate the relationship between science and religion"), why start out by defining that relationship a priori in the title? - dcljr 22:06, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * If I still haven't made my objections clear, I can simply edit the description of the project in a way that I think is more appropriate, assuming you want to keep this title. - dcljr 22:11, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I agree that many people who claim that science is religion are probably either confused or trying to confuse others. An exception would be those who suggest that science can be combined with a sense of wonder and in so doing satisfy many of the same emotional needs that for some people are satisfied by religions. Some people claim that science is a religion and this learning project was created as a place to investigate that idea.
 * Agreed, reading through title, and going on to read through the page it seams very bias. The only reason I ended up here at the discussion page. RichMac 03:12, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
 * As the comments on the Talk:Darwinism as religion page pointed out, the idea that science is religious seems to be a strictly American phenomenon. Perhaps it would be less inflammatory to name the course something like "Science and Religion in America" (or maybe "Science and Religion in the United States"). Furthermore, the idea of "science as religion" don't seem to come from anyone who could be considered an "expert" in any scientific field, but rather from conservative political writers. This isn't a problem in itself, but their points are hugely flawed (implying that evolution is some sort of overarching theme in all of science rather than a specialized topic, so clearly geologists must be experts in evolutionary biology too) or patently false (claiming that most of the evidence for evolutionary biology "has been revealed as hoaxes and fakes", as if a broad field of scientists have nothing better to do than continue their long running joke). There doesn't seem to be much of a point in a course which discusses the merits of articles written to attack biology by authors who don't know the first thing about biology. I do, however, think this course could still be useful as a possible study on how this phenomenon began, why it's isolated to the US (or if it is; as a USian I can't speak for everyone else), its effects on US politics, its effects on how the world views the US (for example, on Talk:Darwinism as religion, someone stated that they have a separation of church and state in Switzerland, implying that we do not. Does the rest of the world view our church/state separation as weak in some sense?), etc. From a sociological perspective, the topic seems rather interesting, and I wouldn't mind learning about it. It also seems like the approach would make it much easier to maintain a NPOV. --Nick Driscoll 21:00, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

Maybe this should be merged with the [Darwinism as religion] page? Right now, the content of the 2 pages is pretty similar.
 * In my view, "Science as Religion" is a large topic and Darwinism as religion is one specific example of how some people have tried to link a particular type of science to religion. Rather than merge, we just need to expand the list of topics on the "Science as Religion" page. For example, I think there could be a "lesson" dealing with claims physicists have made about how their work reveals something about god. --JWSchmidt 23:33, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Nietzsche would be good to bring up—he put Science (and Reason) in the same category as religion, and rejected both on the same grounds. The Jade Knight 02:33, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
 * A lot of people confuse Naturalism with Science. Is that what you mean by "Science as Religion"?  Also, "Science as Religion" does not automatically mean "Religion as Science", which is arguably another matter.  The Jade Knight 08:23, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * If I were to Assume Good Faith and try to find a core of rationality behind the idea that we can constructively view Science as Religion, I would start with the fact that it is possible for people to try to adopt a scientific approach to understanding the world and then stop questioning the foundations of science. In my view, the results of science are always tentative. The history of science is full of examples of scientists being sure that they knew something, but a few years later they find out that they were wrong. So I think some people can make science look like a religion if they are not willing to admit that the results of science are simply the best ideas that we can come up with today, and our current ideas might later be shown to be incomplete or otherwise misguided or wrong. Another main issue is the distinction between "natural" and "supernatural". Much of what we call "religion" touches on the idea of there being "supernatural" features in the world. I think there needs to be a more developed science of the supernatural. It the very least we need to study why people are often attracted to a supernatural "explanation" of some phenomena. I suspect there is a fairly simple biological and sociological account of why people adopt belief in the supernatural. If science can reveal the biological and sociological basis of belief in the supernatural then I think that will help people think more clearly about the relationship between religion and science. --JWSchmidt 16:26, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Another interesting tidbit: DesCartes used the scientific method to attempt to prove the (quite supernatural) existence of God. In his mind, at least, he was using perfectly rational and skeptical science to get to this point.  He more or less came up with the modern scientific method, but saw no need to limit Science to something Naturalistic.  This also may be very relevant to the discussion.  The Jade Knight 18:35, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Is this the argument you are thinking of? "[S]ince I am a thinking thing, and have in me an idea of God, whatever finally the cause may be to which my nature is attributed, it must necessarily be admitted that the cause must equally be a thinking thing, and possess within it the idea of all the perfections that I attribute to the divine nature." (Trademark argument) --JWSchmidt 04:03, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

 * We need a definition of religion here. (e.g. w:Religion, but not as clear-cut as the definition of science below)
 * We need a definition of science here. (e.g.w:Science)
 * I think they are different, and neither is a subset of the other. Perhaps someone can explain whether one is a "subset" (loosely speaking) of the other.
 * There may be scientific theories fitting both definitions, and darwinism may be example.  But then the title should be Scientific theories as religions.--Hillgentleman 04:29, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
 * A relevant definition of religion (based on Mirriam-Webster) has been provided here. However, defining religion is an inherently troublesome affair.  The Jade Knight 18:54, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Bias
It is biased to focus upon Darwin's theory whilst excluding all other scientific theories in the debate. As far as one can tell the whole argument hinges on the premise that a theory that fits all the facts may not be true and a supernatural influence is the actual answer. For this reason I have included gravity in the discussion as it illuminates the whole argument. Newton's theory of gravity was demonstrated to be incorrect - so the most current theory of gravity, by Albert Einstein, is used as a very serious example. It is the example that gives modern science its own creation story (the big bang), so I feel it is the most important theory to discuss. (Others may wish to include quantum mechanics or electromagnetism - all theories that just happen to fit observations amazingly well!) Astrophysicist 11:03, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

 * To me it smacks of satire, which would belong under Literature or Folklore, not here. The Jade Knight 06:09, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
 * The matter is serious. It appears that the 'Science as Religion' article merely concentrates on one particular scientific theory. This led me to believe that it is a cover for ID, and low and behold the rest of the article is about evolution. The scientific method is larger than any one theory and advances by disproving a particular theory in favor of one that more closely fits observations. Gravity is a prime example where Newton's theory of gravity was superceded by Einstein's. Gravity is also important in the discussion because it is a powerful predictive theory that leads sciencists to conclusions about the nature of the universe - the big bang etc. There could indeed be elements of religion in such thinking as it leads to a possible point of creation. From another angle, if one does not dismiss ID then one cannot easily dismiss IF so easily. Indeed if there is any weight to ID then IF becomes more probable - totally directed by a 'higher power'. I am in no way mocking Wikiversity, indeed I am defending it by ensuring a balance is achieved. I have helped build several pages when it was part of wikibooks already and am keen to continue.
 * People believe in ID; no one seriously believes in IF. As such, it is impossible to compare them as similar belief systems.  If you wish to make such a comparison, it will need to be on entirely different grounds.  You're welcome to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of Naturalism, if you like, or of ID, or of Atheism or Agnosticism, or of Buddhism or Islam—but please do not bring in something which is satirical in nature and designed explicitly to mock the views of another and claim that it is an equal example.  The Jade Knight 02:55, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Question: what is going on here?
Can somebody please explain me (an experienced Wikipedia writer) what this course/page is about? This is as far as I know not a subject taught in schools or universities. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Andries/Definitions_of_religions and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Andries/Theories_of_religion 24.132.223.160 19:11, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Within science there are some fundamental ideas that are adopted by most scientists but which are rejected by others who prefer religiously-motivated alternative ideas. For example, Darwinism as religion explores the claim that evolutionary biology is little more than a religion that is forced upon school children. This claim is an interesting attack on conventional biological thought that is part of on-going attempts to put religious ideas on equal footing with science in competition for coverage in schools. This learning resource is a starting point for discussions that explore the relationship between science and religion. --JWSchmidt 22:54, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Anything as Religion
Once you would be able to associate with "Religion" a specific way to deal with a topic x, you can issuisize any x under the label "x as religion". You can misuse the discussion "x as Religion" with the objective to make people believe, that "x is a religion" - rather that discussing an inappropriately religious way to deal with x. This could happen here in wikiversity to science and darwins findings. You can treat science and darwins theories "religiously", but that doesn't turn these categories into a religion. One should not allow this "Science as Religion" project to be the trojan horse of those, who want to assimilate everything, which is not religion yet, into their religious model of reality.

Economics as Religion as an example: Economics can be and has been dealt with as if it was a religion. There surely is a belief system in economics. But the popular claim, that economy is a religion goes to far and is dishonest. Economics as religion simply is bad economics (besides lots of good economical research, of which we have plenty), as in general science as religion simply is no science and thus has to be distinguished from science which still deserves to be called science. --Snark 17:27, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Well - deep subject. What must be asked is "What is Religion?" It is in most cases a personal and subjective belief system, a world view or a way of life. The root of the word is related to a Latin term - ligo which is the same root found in the word "ligament" for instance. It means to "re-link" presumably to "God" or the "Divine" - a creator and subject/object of worship (worth-ship). The very etymology of the word, religion suggests that mankind was once linked (connected, tied, bound...) to a supreme being, but somehow that link became broken. Religion then encompasses a myriad of attempts to re-establish the original connection to the Godhead. These attempts range from atheism (relinking to the void) to pantheism (relinking to anything) to monotheism (relinking to the real God, whomever He/She/It is).

 * My personal choice is the re-linking to God the Universal Father who was manifest to me (and many others) through a visit to the planet some 2 millenia ago by a certain Jesus of Nazereth whom we understand was, is, and will always be the first-born Son of God. He is not, therefore only the healer of the breech, but is Himself, the Link. In our belief the link was broken as a result of the rebellion of a certain angel (lower diety, demigod...), Lucifer (The devil, Satan, Beelzebub...) causing what we know as the "Fall of Man". The whole package works for me, so that's what I use. But, science or anything else as religion is nonsense to me. --CQ 18:45, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I do think that many take Naturalism religiously, and that for them it thus functions as a religion. This is not the same thing as "Science", and it is somewhat more difficult to think of something like the Scientific Method as being a religion in and of itself, though it could be perhaps adhered to "religiously".

Theory of Everything Project

Welcome to the Theory of Everything Project, a learning project of the Institute of Particle Physics.

Project summary
Participants of the Theory of Everything Project develop collaborative research projects intended to produce unified descriptions of different physical phenomena.

This search for unification may take various paths, like study of data for cosmological and particle physics experiments involving public databases, survey of grand unification theories, comparison of different interpretations of physical concepts... The content of this project is organized according to these different paths.

The purpose of this project is manyfold:
 * 1) gain insight and understanding of natural phenomena,
 * 2) facilitate research related to this highly specialized topic in a wiki way.
 * 3) produce and organize learning resources on fundamental issues of Physics
 * 4) provide background reading material

Subprojects of the Theory of Everything Project
Choose or add a research subject. Organize it in order to facilitate learning and collaboration.

Learning materials and learning projects are located in the main Wikiversity namespace. Simply make a link to the name of the lesson (lessons are independent pages in the main namespace) and start writing!

You should also read about the Learning model. Lessons should center on learning activities for Wikiversity participants. Learning materials and learning projects can be used by multiple projects. Cooperate with other departments that use the same learning resource.

Experimental data interpretation
Experimental cosmology and particle physics may provide data that will help guide these efforts in theoretical physics.

Grand Unification theories
Grand unification theories explore the idea that at very high energies, the electromagnetic, weak nuclear, and strong nuclear forces might share a single physical description. In addition to those three forces, a theory of everything would also be able to account for gravity within a single coherent physical theory.

Problem solving
There are currently some problems that hinder a unified comprehension of Physics. Lee Smolin (in The Trouble with Physics, 2006) has listed 5 major problems:
 * 1) Combine general relativity and quantum theory into a single theory.
 * 2) Resolve the problems in the foundations of quantum mechanics.
 * 3) Determine whether or not the various particles and forces can be unified in a theory that explains them all as manifestations of a single, fundamental entity.
 * 4) Explain how the values of the free constants in the standard model of particle physics are chosen in nature.
 * 5) Explain dark matter and dark energy.

Exploring anomalous effects
There exist some experimental behaviors which have not a clearcut explanation or on which there is not a widely accepted consensus. Exploring them may open or close paths towards TOE.
 * Pioneer anomaly
 * Allais effect
 * Muon magnetic moment

Texts

 * Particle Physics

Activities
What else is Gravity?

Readings
Each activity has a suggested associated background reading selection.

Wikiversity translations/7 September IRC

This was an attempt to make sense of German terminology concerning research and literature reviews.

From IRC (Freenode) #wikiversity-en
Log file opened at: 9/5/06 12:44:20 AM [edited for readability]

SB_Johnny has joined channel #wikiversity-en

JWSchmidt: hi SB_Johnny

guillom|away is now known as guillom SB_Johnny: Hi everyone

guillom: hi johnny

SB_Johnny: hi guillom

SB_Johnny: raining today... got any chores for me?

SB_Johnny: more translating?

guillom: not for the moment i think

guillom: unless you can translate from english to french :)

SB_Johnny actually *can* read both French and German, but he's a bit rusty.

guillom: don't mind

SB_Johnny: I might be able to go from French to English, but not English to French.

JWSchmidt: Wikiversity translations

wikiversil: http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Wikiversity_translations

guillom: thanks john, i didn't know this page

guillom: great indeed

Scope of research
SB_Johnny: I'll give this a shot: http://beta.wikiversity.org/wiki/Wikiversity:Scope_of_research/De#2

JWSchmidt: SB_Johnny: thanks

JWSchmidt: do you see the machine translation version

SB_Johnny: what's the destination page?

JWSchmidt: we need a good translation at Beta: "Wikiversity talk:Scope of research/En"

JWSchmidt: http://beta.wikiversity.org/wiki/Wikiversity_talk:Scope_of_research/En

JWSchmidt: http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Wikiversity_translations#machine_translation_.28not_adequate.29

SB_Johnny: oh, I see the problem. they would use "Interpretation" and "exegisis" for what we call "secondary research"

SB_Johnny: Exegesis

wikiversil: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exegesis

JWSchmidt: "Interpretation" and "exegisis" <-- so does that mean "literature review"?

SB_Johnny: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Textinterpretation

SB_Johnny: sort of. interpreting texts and drawing conclusions that are metadiscursive

SB_Johnny: "the September 4"... yup, he's German alright :)

SB_Johnny: there's not much sense translating that... it's really just a "what the fuck are you guys talking about?" entry. I'll try to explain on the talk page.

JWSchmidt: lol SB_Johnny: Actually, I can't find entries for either primary research or secondary research on wp... SB_Johnny: Original_research

wikiversil: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Original_research JWSchmidt: I put some references here: http://beta.wikiversity.org/wiki/Wikiversity_talk:Scope_of_research/En#Reading SB_Johnny: ok, now we just need someone to translate that into german :) SB_Johnny is a one-way translator

aschoeke
aschoeke has joined channel #wikiversity-en aschoeke: hi there SB_Johnny: hi! JWSchmidt: hello aschoeke SB_Johnny: hold on, finding the page aschoeke: got to learn for my java exam, but go ahead SB_Johnny: (aschoeke is a german speaker) SB_Johnny: http://beta.wikiversity.org/wiki/Wikiversity:Research/En SB_Johnny: http://beta.wikiversity.org/wiki/Wikiversity:Secondary_research/En SB_Johnny: because of this:  http://beta.wikiversity.org/wiki/Wikiversity:Scope_of_research/De#2 SB_Johnny: you'll see the problem :) SB_Johnny: even just a sentence or two explaining what we mean by primary and secondary research would do... they're rather confused by our use of the terms aschoeke: ok SB_Johnny: thanks! aschoeke: i"ll have a look SB_Johnny: ok. let us know if there's any trouble. :) aschoeke: well, in my opinion it is not that difficult aschoeke: There is actually a term for it in german aschoeke: but it isn't used that often ;) JWSchmidt: if we have the German word it might be possible to cite a source aschoeke: In Sociology you would talk of "der akademische Mittelbau" for original research. i think aschoeke: the problem is, that it is rather far away from the original word aschoeke: so i would suggest something like "forschung und lehre" :-/ aschoeke: as you divide the university also in reality JWSchmidt: Primary and Secondary research in the context of social science research (in English): http://ec.hku.hk/acadgrammar/report/resProc/research.htm aschoeke: ok SB_Johnny: ah yes, akademische Mittelbau. Unfortunately my German is very good for reading Husserl and Hegel, but not so good for chatting :) aschoeke: dont know aschoeke: is a bit more complicated SB_Johnny: I think the difference is mainly between Forschung and Textinterpretation SB_Johnny: or maybe Untersuchungen aschoeke: it looks like there is also a problem of empiric research and theoretical research envolved SB_Johnny: yes, that's the kernel. JWSchmidt: we could use a list of different types of research SB_Johnny: Primary = empirical (with data collection) aschoeke: JWSchmidt, wouldnt work aschoeke: nono aschoeke: that will not do SB_Johnny: Secondary = based on preexisting texts JWSchmidt: Wikiversity must decide on policy for which types of research are allowed aschoeke: as you can not divide empirical and preexisitng aschoeke: you need booth for primary SB_Johnny: right aschoeke: ok aschoeke: how about "aufbereitende und aktive Forschung" aschoeke: would be preparing and active research SB_Johnny: Aber ich glaube dass das sogennante "Primary Research" die sammlung des data auch impliziert aschoeke: yes SB_Johnny: ...weil diese sammlung im "Secondary Research" nicht impliziert. aschoeke: so it is a question of the word "aufbereitend" SB_Johnny: I think so, hold on SB_Johnny: yes, I think. how the materials for the research are collected and prepared. aschoeke: ok aschoeke: aufbereitend is misleading aschoeke: maybe vorbereitend ;) aschoeke: but that is a bit far away again aschoeke: next try: vergleichende und aktive forschung... may be that aschoeke: ? SB_Johnny: yeah. It's really just a difference in that secondary research doesn't involve the collection of raw data, but instead relies on the interpretation of already-written texts that have already analyzed the data SB_Johnny: are those expressions used in German? aschoeke: vergleichende forschung yes aschoeke: but i dont know of a counter part SB_Johnny: ah, that's it! SB_Johnny: There is no counterpart. Original research is just Forschung SB_Johnny: "Original" is simply implied. aschoeke: yes, i think so too SB_Johnny: cool. That makes things much easier then. aschoeke: cool :) SB_Johnny: Thanks so much! Would you mind dropping a note on the talk page there so they'll understand what we're trying to say? aschoeke: ok

GarageBand

Welcome to Introduction to GarageBand.

GarageBand is software that allows you to make great music, podcasts and movie sound tracks. This tutorial allows participants to learn how to use GarageBand to make audio and visual resources for projects such as Wikiversity the Movie. If you have audio or visual clips to donate, please upload them to Wikiversity and/or leave a link at Introduction to GarageBand/Audio and video resources.

How to get GarageBand software
GarageBand software is included with all Macintosh computers manufactured by Apple (after January 6, 2004). GarageBand is part of iLife, a suite of applications that allow creation and organization of digital images and sounds. In addition to GarageBand, iLife includes iPhoto, iMovie, iDVD, iTunes, and iWeb. The GarageBand 3 version of 2006 introduced two major features, support for podcasting and support for movie sound tracks. If you have an older Macintosh (pre-2006) with GarageBand 2, you need to purchase iLife '06. You can purchase the latest version of iLife (which is only available for OS X, excluding iTunes) for $79 from Apple. Once you install Garageband, it is recommended to check for updates, as they could contain bug fixes.

The 10.0 version of Garageband has a lot more variety of musical loops, and to get more sounds it requires a download of 14.4GB. Even better, it's free!

Start using GarageBand
The GarageBand application can be found in the Applications folder of a new Macintosh. The image (Figure 1, to right) shows the GarageBand icon in the dock and part of a GarageBand project window containing musical notes in an edit window. GarageBand has eight menus including "Track", "Control" and "Help". The Help menu provides access to the GarageBand Help feature (see Figure 2, to left).

There is more help at the Apple webpage for GarageBand: www.apple.com/garageband. At the Apple website there is a video tutorial for GarageBand. The Apple tutorial video emphasizes how to use GarageBand for making podcasts and sound tracks for movies. There are many help files in GarageBand Help, the first help file is called "GarageBand basics".

A fun way to get started with GarageBand is to download a project file.

GarageBand comes with pre-recorded sound files called "Apple Loops". To access the Apple Loops, click on the "loop browser" button (see Figure 3, right, below). The loop browser helps you find interesting instrument sounds and hear them. When you find a sound you like just drag it up into the "tracks" window. Click the "play" button and adjust the volume control slider.

Note: the red button is for recording (see below for details). The play button (triangle) works as both a play button and a stop button and you can also use the space bar to control play of your project's sounds.

Movie scores
When you start GarageBand 3 you can select music, podcast or movie score projects (See figure 4, left). As an example, imagine that someone created a movie (QuickTime .mov format) corresponding to the animated Gif shown in Figure 5. This tutorial will explore how you can use GarageBand to produce a sound track for the movie. First, launch GarageBand 3 and select a new movie score project. After the new project window opens, drag a copy of the movie into the area of the GarageBand window that says "drag movie here". In this case, the original movie file only has video. Once the movie is in your GarageBand project, you can start adding sound tracks. In this case we will use several over-lapping channels of Apple Loops and voice input. The movie that is used as an example was created as an example for Wikiversity shorts, so it is a short movie, only about 15 seconds long.

The sample movie (Figure 5) is playing around with the term "short". The basic background sounds of the movie are sounds like electrical "shorting". The voice content is simple, "Learning the wiki way". See the QuickTime version of this short movie with a sound track produced by GarageBand.

The GarageBand project for the sample movie combines four GarageBand sound tracks to produce a single sound track for the final QuickTime movie (See Figure 6, below). The list of tracks first shows the video track of the movie followed by two sound effects tracks, a music track and a voice track. All of the sounds used were taken from the Apple Loops library of sounds that comes with GarageBand, but some of these sound samples were shortened (easily accomplished by just click-draging the end of the colored box representing a sound). The Apple Loops browser at the bottom left of Figure 6 shows the source of the electrical sound used when the words "Wiki" and "Versity" collide. The track information for the voice track is shown in the lower right corner of Figure 6.

Time-variable volume control was used for three of the four sound tracks (the blue shaded track volume profiles). The voice saying "Learn the wiki way" was computer generating using the built-in Macintosh voice synthesizer. The desired text was entered into the SimpleText application, read by the computer and recorded (use the red "record" button) into GarageBand using the Macintosh's built-in microphone. The video preview window (upper right corner in Figure 6) allows you to watch the movie as you build the sound track.

When you are happy with the sound track for a movie, use the "Share" menu to export the finished movie.

Your turn
Try a small Garageband project. Describe your experience below:

Podcast creation with Garageband
There is a set of tutorial videos that you can download from Apple's website into iTunes. If that link does not work for your browser (requires iTunes), try this one.
 * Creating Your Own Podcast	- An overview of what a podcast is and how to create, manage and publish your podcast using iLife'06.
 * Planning Your Podcast Recording Session - Setting a structure for each episode and outlining each segment.
 * Recording Your First Podcast Episode - Creating a new episode, setting recording levels, and starting to record.
 * Polishing the Sound of Your Podcast Episode - Eliminating mistakes or pauses and adding introductory music and sound effects.
 * Enhancing Your Podcast Episode with Artwork and Chapters - Adding images and web links to each segment.
 * Exporting Your Podcast to iWeb - To begin collecting your episodes into a podcast series, you export from GarageBand to iWeb.
 * Making a Video Podcast - Using iMovie HD to capture and edit a video episode.
 * Adding a Podcast - Using iWeb to create a podcast with the episodes you made in GarageBand or iMovie HD.

Sample podcast
The basic idea for this sample podcast (Wikiversity Reports Volume 1) was to put the contents of this report on Wikiversity into podcast format. GarageBand exports podcasts in M4A format. This example file is about 3.7 Mb and runs 5 minutes.

If you are using most browsers including the Safari browser, use the link for "Wikiversity Reports #1" at this ourmedia webpage to view the podcast. If your browser has problems with that webpage, please leave a note describing your problem.

You can also use this webpage to download the "Wikiversity Reports Volume 1" podcast to your hard drive. If your web browser has problems downloading this file, you may want to use Firefox. Other browsers may load the M4A file into a browser window as a text file. If so, you can right click on this link and download the "text" file to your hard drive (WikiversityReports1.m4a.txt). Remove the ".txt" extension from the downloaded file name and open the "WikiversityReports1.m4a" file using QuickTime or iTunes (see below).

RealPlayer will play the audio part of the podcast, but it has trouble with the images. Windows media player does not recognize M4A files.

You can view the downloaded podcast with Apple's Quicktime player. For some reason, the Quicktime player by default opens the images in a 160 x 160 pixel window. For best viewing of the podcast images, use the Window menu of the player to open "Movie Info". Re-size the podcast window to 300 x 300 pixels.

You can also use iTunes to watch the image "slide show" that is in this podcast. Make sure you turn on the "song artwork" feature of iTunes (use the button circled in red, Figure 8). The default size for the song artwork window in iTunes is too small. Click and drag the window boundary (green oval in Figure 8) to enlarge the window. You can also get an even larger magnified view of an image by clicking on the song art window. While the song art window is in the lower left hand corner of iTunes, the chapter menu button is at the top near the search tool in iTunes 6. In iTunes 7, there is a regular chapter menu for podcasts with chapters. Chapters. Each image in a podcast can be given a chapter name and a URL can be provided. Quicktime and iTunes use different methods for display of a chapter's link at the bottom of the image (compare Figure 7 and Figure 8). The method used by iTunes is the same as what is shown in the GarageBand image preview. The QuickTime view of the podcast at this website does not allow you to select chapters and for some browsers the links in the chapter images may not function optimally. It is best to subscribe to the podcast and view from within iTunes.

Tips and hints. The GarageBand interface has a few features that I found to be sources of problems. As a company that has done much to bring us "what you see is what you get", Apple got a bit lazy with how GarageBand shows the video images for podcasts. The video image preview within GarageBand can be misleading. It does not indicate the way that either iTunes or QuickTime shows images by default.

When you insert an image into GarageBand, it creates a rectangular box that represents the temporal location and duration for display of the image in your podcast. GarageBand allows you to drag these rectangles around, but be careful! If the last thing you clicked on was the icon representing the entire image channel, then all of the individual images are selected. If you try to move or re-size just one image, you will actually move or re-size all of the images. If you are zoomed in on one image you might not notice that you have messed up all of the other images until you zoom out again. Always make sure you know exactly what is selected before you edit your podcast.

GarageBand can also be misleading in terms of audio quality. There are several choices available for podcast audio quality. In order to save on size, you might export your podcast project with a lower level of audio quality that what you heard while working in GarageBand. This can be a problem for certain sound and voice effects that might essentially become inaudible or simply be heard as noise in your final podcast.

Video podcasts
Video podcasting is for situations where you have a real digital video track. For example, see this video podcast of Jimmy Wales.

An example of a video podcast that was made using GarageBand on a Macintosh is for the example video from Figure 5, above. Video podcasts are basically just .mov QuickTime files.

User talk:Smarkham~enwikiversity

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Smarkham. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Smarkham~enwikiversity that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

User talk:Vassilis~enwikiversity

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Vassilis. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Vassilis~enwikiversity that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 00:11, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

Wikiversity talk:Wikiversity the Movie/Script outline

Is there some other way to do this? Perhaps not Seinfeld? I am thinking of ideas, but others may have more!

Hold on!
Um, maybe we should star with what we want the movie to say (via vote?), then move on to how make it say it, then focus on writing the script, eh? Of course, in wikiworld, the script gets written *before* the movie's topic is defined--Rayc | (Talk) 05:34, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
 * "we should run small experiments, tests, see what works, what doesn't, and be prepared to be flexible and change, and not be too locked into stone about how things should work." (source) --JWSchmidt 14:53, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Ok. But, what is the movie going to be about?--Rayc | (Talk) 17:27, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

--- Hey everyone, hoping to get involved with this.

Not sure about Seinfeld. We do need to be very clear about what this DVD is! What are we trying to get across with the film?

I would put it as...
 * 1. What Wikiversity is - its unique strengths over standard studies (ie. free, new styles of learning etc)
 * 2. Why is this a valid learning source? (ie. give confidence to 'students' that this is accurate, useful information!)
 * 3. Collaborative nature. Appealling not only to potential students but to potential authors.

Those are the three main things I can think of. This is, after all, surely an advertisement?

Personaljesus 12:59, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

 * I agree that the three points listed above include the kinds of concepts that the movie should communicate. In addition to the serious content, I think the movie should be entertaining. Wikiversity Reports. --JWSchmidt 14:54, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * That podcast was good. How do you make it?--Rayc 18:10, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
 * See: Podcast creation with Garageband. --JWSchmidt 18:25, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

 * There are some parts of that Seinfeld idea that could work - and some parts are funny - but I honestly think that, on the whole, it's more confusing than anything else. I think we could come up with something better - punchier (ie. shorter), more focussed, and funnier. However, the timeline for doing this is pretty tight if production really is the end of January...

International law

This learning project has resources on the issues surrounding laws applicable between states (and governments), regulating areas such as human rights, international conflicts, international criminal law, etc.

Public International Law (PIL) should be distinguished from Domestic Law (i.e. the law within a single state) and from Private International Law (i.e. the law regulating activities between people, companies or / states that occurs across international borders).

Resources

 * Sources
 * Public International Law - Where does it come from (sources)? Who / what is bound by it (subjects and personality)? What does it do (remit)? How is it different from Private International Law (Wikibook), Regional Law (e.g. European Union Law), and Domestic Law (i.e. law within a state)?
 * /Statehood and personality/ - What are states? How are they created? How can they end? What status do they have - what rights and duties? Are there alternative forms of 'personality' within PIL?
 * Constitutional and International Law Papers
 * International Law in the United States at Wikibooks
 * /Human Rights/ - Theoretical and philosophical foundations of Human Rights, the obligations of States under Human Rights Law, substantive rights (generations of rights), the Universal System for the protection of Human Rights (UN System), the Regional Systems for the protection of Human Rights (Inter-American, European, African).
 * /Criminal/
 * /Theory/
 * /Space Law and Policy/
 * /Law of the Sea/

User talk:Igauz~enwikiversity

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Igauz. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Igauz~enwikiversity that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
