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 Rumon. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Rumon~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 23:42, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

observations from Erkan Yilmaz for 2008 May

You are invited to add your comments (e.g. but my perception of this issue is different) - please sign anything you add (howto Signature).

May 31 - improvement possibilities for German Wikiversity - by an "outsider"
Had a phone call with a friend - we talked also about German Wikiversity (WV) and this is a very short resume after it:

 * we talked about mission of WV and he knows it now :-)
 * some improvement potentials from his side about the topics of his study and PhD (no comment by me, just stating):
 * more categorizing - after structures from real life, something like that people can see easily: this resource is for 4th class schools, this is for 1st semesters from university
 * materials are like scripts - this he can have also at university - he misses explanations/descriptions at begin - that is why he searched at 1st place

background info:
 * a few months ago he just knew Wikipedia, he uses Wikipedia regularly, but doesn't contribute
 * initial assumption after that by him: Wikiversity = Wikipedia

May 24 - What can motivate to give away "their" stuff to all - more willingly ?
During the OER course I uploaded some audio files to commons. But honestly: since it took much time to upload and add a category, description - my motivation sank to do this soon. But 2 days ago I rediscovered the CheckUsage button on commons and saw that one of the audio files was used at Chinese Wikipedia. That blew my mind. I didn't expect that.

Well that gave me a boost to upload now all 123 audio files (in German, Turkish and French). Let's see in the future where they will be used.

I think if we could see (more) easily where a (learning) resource is used, that could help that people more willingly give away "their" stuff to all.

May 19 - OER last week: Comments, reflection, peer evaluation and feedback
So, the course Composing free and open online educational resources has finished (as the time schedule says). But I am sure the next cycle of the course will happen. And hopefully some of the participants will contribute here also in the future.

questions and answers
Someone send me these questions, so I will answer them here openly.

What is the most important thing you've gained through participation in the Wikiversity course?

 * That I was "forced" to see Wikiversity from another point of view/role as usual. This could benefit future learning projects here at Wikiversity.
 * (Even though the question asks for one thing: We got a new custodian: User:Jtneill - though I am not quite sure, if this was the only influencing factor (for him))

Were you involved with Wikiversity before taking this course?

 * Yes :-) Wanna stalk (only English Wikiversity) ?

Did you or will you complete this course? What factors have influenced your completion status in this course?

 * Completed
 * Factors:
 * being familiar with the topic/Wikiversity
 * I am regularly at Wikiversity - so also seeing how other participants contributed here gave a motivation.

Will you continue to take an interest in Wikiversity after this course? Explain.

 * Yes. Reason: I like it here.

Does this course fit in with other courses you are taking? Or are you doing it out of professional, personal or other interests?

 * It is a different course than I usually do/did (see also point 1). Reason I invested some time is: that the course is also of interest for Wikiversity.

Feel free to comment about any other aspects of your experience in this course

 * See other contributions during the course time (but don't judge too hard :-) I must still look at them also for the final review of the course.)
 * or just ask - time is money :-)

User:Smileyface1234/Spanish

Spanish One, Lesson One, Pronunciation Summary: Spanish is a fairly easy language to pronounce, since with only a few exceptions, all letters only have one phonetical sound. The exceptions to this are "w" and "x", which aren't used very frequently. The pronunciations of the letter stay consistent, but there are several marks that can change the pronunciation of the word as a whole. In each word, there is an implicit accent. If the word ends in a vowel, "n", or "s", the implicit accent is on the second to last syllable. If the word ends in a consonant other than "n" or "s", the implicit accent is on the last syllable of the word. Accent marks change the implicit accent. The diaeresis also changes the pronunciation of a word. Normally, when "g" is followed by "ue" or "ui", the "u" is silent. When there is a diaeresis, the "u" is pronounced. With only a few pronunciation rules to learn, Spanish is an easy language to read and speak aloud.

Workplace learning

Types of workplace learning
Informal learning Informal learning takes place in a number of ways:
 * asking for help from peers
 * observing others
 * trial and error
 * corridor conversations
 * mentoring relationships

Formal learning in the workplace Most of the formal learning in the workplace normally occurs in the first few weeks of employemt. Sadly many companies neglect formal training of employees.
 * Site Induction
 * Safety training

Learning Management Systems Companies that do invest time and resources into training employees may elect to use a Learning Management System to provide, track and record training taken by their employees.

Barriers to informal information flow

 * Lack of respect - the new employee does not respect the older more experienced employee
 * Distrust - employees will withold information from peers for fear of being made redundant - "I am not teaching him to have him replace me!"
 * Misinformation - the deliberate passing on of wrong information to new employees with the aim of sabotaging them.

Statistical significance

In inferential statistics, a result is statistically significant when it is judged as unlikely to have occurred by sampling error alone.

Statistical software packages generally report statistical significance using a test statistic and a p (probability) value (ranging between 0 and 1). If the p-value is less than a pre-selected critical value (critical α) then in classical test theory it is considered to be "statistically significant".

The greater the statistical power, the greater the likelihood of a test being statistically significant.

Logic
If you were betting on coin tosses, how many heads in a row would someone else need to throw before you'd protest that something “wasn't right” (i.e., there was bias - it isn't a 50-50 coin)?

This is the logic as significance testing - basically, how unlikely would a set of results need to be before you'd conclude that it is different to one's expectations?

See also: A Coin-Flipping Exercise to Introduce the P-Value

Based on the distributional properties of a sample dataset, we can extrapolate (guessestimate) about the probability of the observed differences or relationships existing in a population. In doing this, we are assuming that the sample data is representative and that data meets the assumptions associated with the inferential test.

A null hypothesis (H0) states the expected effect in the population (or no effect). A p-value is obtained from sample data to determine the likelihood of H0 being true. Researcher tolerates some false positives (Type I error; critical α) in order to make a decision about H0

History
Significant testing evolved during the 20th century and become an important scientific methodology.

Karl Pearson laid the foundation for ST as early as 1901 (Glaser, 1999).

Sir Ronald Fisher 1920’s-1930’s (1925) developed significant testing for agricultural data to help determine agricultural effectiveness e.g., whether plants grew better using fertilizer A vs. B. The method was used to test whether variation in agricultural output were due to chance or not.

Agricultural research designs couldn’t be fully experimental because variables such as weather and soil quality couldn't be fully controlled, therefore it was needed to determine whether variations in the DV were due to chance or the IV(s).

Significance testing spread to other fields, including social sciences. The spread was aided by the development of computers and statistical method training.

Criticisms
The use of significance testing was critiqued as early as 1930. Cohen, in particular, provided a substantial critique during the 1980’s and 1990’s of the widespread use of Null Hypothesis Significance Testing (NHST), including over-use and mis-use. This lead to a critical mass of awareness and changes were made to publication guidelines and teaching during the 2000s to avoid over-reliance on significant testing and to encourage use of alternative and adjunct techniques, including consideration of effect sizes, confidence intervals and statistical power.

The key criticisms include:
 * 1) The null hypothesis is rarely true
 * 2) Significance testing only provides a binary decision (yes or no) and the direction of the effect - but mostly we are interested in the size of the effect – i.e., how much of an effect?
 * 3) Statistical vs. practical significance
 * 4) Sig. is a function of ES, N and critical α - e.g., can get statistical significance, even with very small population differences, if N, ES and/or critical α are large enough

An example of the criticisms include:
 * "For example, Frank Yates (1951), a contemporary of Fisher, observed that the use of the null hypothesis significance test: "has caused scientific researcher workers to pay unde attention to the results of the tests of significance that they perform on their data and too little attention to the estimates of the magnitude of the effects they are investigating... The emphasis on tests of significance, and the consideration of the results of each experiment in isolation, have had the unfortunate consequence that scientific workers often have regarded the execution of a test of significance on an experiment as the ultimate objective (pp. 32-33)""Kirk, 2001, p. 213)
 * A more strongly worded criticism by Paul Meehl (1978) was: "I believe that the almost universal reliance on merely refuting the null hypothesis is a terrible mistake, is basically unsound, poor scientific strategy, and one of the worst things that ever happened in the history of psychology" (p. 817)
 * "The current method of hypothesis testing in the social sciences is under intense criticism, yet most political scientists are unaware of the important issues being raised. Criticisms focus on the construction and interpretation of a procedure that has dominated the reporting of empirical results for over fifty years. There is evidence that null hypothesis significance testing as practised in political science if deeply flawed and widely misunderstood. This is important since most empirical work argues the value of findings through the use of the null hypothesis significance test." (Gill, 1999, p. 647)
 * “Historically, researchers in psychology have relied heavily on null hypothesis significance testing (NHST) as a starting point for many (but not all) of its analytic approaches. APA stresses that NHST is but a starting point and that additional reporting such as effect sizes, confidence intervals, and extensive description are needed to convey the most complete meaning of the results... complete reporting of all tested hypotheses and estimates of appropriate ESs and CIs are the minimum expectations for all APA journals.” (APA Publication Manual (6th ed., 2009, p. 33)

Practical significance
Statistical significance means that the observed mean differences are judged to be unlikely due to sampling error.

Practical significance is about whether the difference is large enough to be of value in a practical sense. In other words, is it an effect worth being concerned about – are these noticeable or worthwhile effects? e.g., a 5% increase in well-being probably has practical value

Recommendations

 * 1) Use traditional Fisherian logic methodology (inferential testing)
 * 2) Use alternative and complementary techniques (ESs and CIs)
 * 3) Emphasise practical significance
 * 4) Recognise merits and shortcomings of each approach

Summary

 * Criticisms of NHST:
 * 1) Binary decision
 * 2) Doesn't directly indicate ES
 * 3) Dependent on N, ES, and critical α
 * 4) Need to know practical significance

 * Recommendations:
 * 1) Use complementary or alternative techniques, including power, effect size (ES) and CIs
 * 2) Wherever a p-level is reported, also report ES, N and critical α

Hi MBisanz, I've read your name in the Bureaucrats list in Wikipedia so I thought I could ask you some information that maybe the English admins might not be able to give me:

 * 1) Is there a "UTRS" and an "ArbCom" also on Wikiversity (and other projects) or the ones in Wikipedia are valid also in Wikiversity (etc)?

 * 1) Is there a sort of list of a admins who deal with the requests to UTRS/ArbCom (or maybe something like a template in their user pages instead) or, on the contrary, is there no way to know which admins deal with them?

I hope that there's no problems with my question and that you can help me with such information, thanks in advance if you will :-) Soverope (discuss • contribs) 16:09, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

Survey research and design in psychology/Overview

This page describes the "Survey research and design in psychology" unit of study for participants.

Unit outline
The unit outline contains specific details for formally enrolled students.

Syllabus
This is a third-year tertiary-level, 3 credit point (150 hour), semester-long unit of study in applied psychological research methods. Learning content and activities focus on:
 * 1) Developing knowledge and skills involved in conducting well-designed, ethical, survey-based research in psychology and the social sciences;
 * 2) Theory and practice of survey-based research, including how to ask a research question, survey design, sampling, multivariate data analysis (descriptives and graphing, linear correlation, exploratory factor analysis, multiple linear regression), and interpreting and communicating results in APA style.

Learning outcomes
On completion of the unit, participants should be able to:
 * 1) Design and conduct ethically- and scientifically-sound survey-based research in the social sciences;
 * 2) Use statistical software (SPSS and Excel) to manage data and to conduct descriptive statistics, graphing, exploratory factor analysis and reliability analysis, and multiple linear regression;
 * 3) Communicate the results of survey-based research in APA style.

Prerequisites
Since the unit is targeted at third-year tertiary (university) level, it is assumed that participants have already completed the equivalent of:
 * 1) A first year tertiary education introductory research and statistics unit (preferably in the social sciences)
 * 2) A second year tertiary education research and statistics unit (preferably in the social sciences)

As a result of successfully completing such a three-year sequence of units, a student should be equipped for supervised post-graduate and professional research work.

Educational approach
Three educational themes guide the andragogical design and facilitation of this unit:
 * 1) Collegiality : Emerging academics participate in facilitated learning events
 * 2) Emerging academics ("students") and more experienced academics ("teachers") participate in a collegial academic culture which is designed to develop participants' skills and knowledge through facilitated learning events (lectures, tutorials, readings, assessment, and discussion).
 * 3) Learning attitude : engage + work hard = learn + succeed
 * 4) Engagement and active participation in the learning events develop the skills and knowledge needed to demonstrate achievement of the learning outcomes. Basically, this means adopting a "learning attitude".
 * 5) Open education
 * 6) The unit materials and learning resources are freely available as open educational resources on Wikiversity and so as to maximise their utility. These materials were used to supplement face-to-face (f2f), campus-based teaching at the University of Canberra (UC) by James Neill (2005-2018).
 * 7) Participants are welcome to contribute by editing and/or commenting on unit materials.
 * 8) The open educational resources include:
 * 9) Lecture slides
 * 10) Lecture recordings
 * 11) Readings
 * 12) Tutorial notes

Assessment
The assessment for this unit consists of online quizzes (45%), a data collection and entry exercise (10%), and a lab report (45%) which focuses on the use of exploratory factor analysis and multiple linear regression.

Workload
The amount of study needed for this unit will depend on your prior knowledge and pace of learning. The unit is designed to involve approximately 150 hours of study (including contact time and personal study time) - or an average of 11 hours per week. The following table provides a break-down of the main learning activities and the estimated time involved:

Special needs
People who need assistance in undertaking the unit because of disability or other circumstances should inform the Unit Convener as soon as possible so that necessary arrangements can be made.

Participation requirements
Attendance at tutorials is strongly recommended but not compulsory.

Tutorials develop hands-on data analysis skills through direct contact with teaching staff.

Tutorial learning activities are closely related to the assessment tasks, particularly the lab report.

Required IT skills
A moderate level of expertise in using word-processing and spreadsheet software is required.

Previous introductory experience using SPSS software is expected.

Collaboration

Collaboration, in the context of wikis, is the art of being able to write and discuss as a team. Due to the multiple user possibility of wikis and the ability to have a history and diffs to highlight new changes, users are able to write in collaboration. There are pros and cons to writing this way; usually, some users find that they are unable to contribute to existing content and they decide to write forks, alternative pages instead of trying to find an agreement. Usually, the agreement cannot be made because the original contributors are gone.

Wikia

 * VirileMail is an example of a novel written by 2 authors mainly (although many users contributed), at Fiction Wikia. Author John Schmidt wrote major parts of the story and then David joined the effort. Wikis have the advantage of talk pages, which are very good to discuss themes. Besides, in that wikia there is a category of pages for meta content; that is, pages to develop plots for stories. Using those tools and IRC they could complete a story that was abandoned for 3 years.

Definitions of trust typically refer to a situation characterized by the following aspects:
 * Trustor/Trustee Relationship: One party (trustor) is willing to rely on the actions of another party (trustee);
 * Temporal aspect: situations of trust are directed to the future.
 * Control: the trustor (voluntarily or forcedly) abandons control over the actions performed by the trustee.
 * Uncertainty: As a consequence of abandoned control, the trustor is uncertain about the outcome of the other's actions; they can only develop and evaluate expectations. The uncertainty involves the risk of failure or harm to the trustor if the trustee will not behave as desired. Vladimir Ilych Lenin expressed this idea with the sentence "Trust is good, control is better". . In a social context, trust has several connotations.

Learning Tasks

 * (COVID-19) Contact tracing is a relevant measure for epidemical containment strategy, i.e. limit the impact of an epidemiological spread to minimal number of people (not lockdown) by identification of those community members that had contact with someone who was infected. This contact tracing needs trust on different levels of stakeholders, that apps performing those contact tracing respect the privacy of those people that support the IT based epidemiological control with the intallation of that app. Discuss the following aspects
 * (Privacy of Epidemiological Status of Citizens) trust in the software, that it does not expose epidemiological status of individuals to other people that do not need to know that. Compare that with public health strategies for notifiable diseases!
 * (Commercial Data Harvesting and Health Related Data) Now we compare public health app for contact tracing with basic principles of data collection in economy. For tailored advertisments for users of mobile devices Commercial Data Harvesting is a strategy to show only specific advertisments that users more likely would respond to (generate a user profile for the tailored advertisments). By this strategy user profiles can be aggregated and traded between companies and used for business management. Analyse the technical possibilities to collect data on different levels of IT infrastructure (e.g. hardware, operating systems, applications, network, ...) for Commercial Data Harvesting and identify measures that assures the privacy of health related data on the app.
 * (Risk Literacy) The measures to assure the privacy of health related data must be comprehensible to the public, because contact tracing will work for epidemiology if a large majority of the population will use the app (e.g. 60%). If you look into the basic Risk Management cycle of knowing about the risk and being able to select appropriate measures for risk mitigation then also the reponse to that risk needs to be addressed. So knowledge about the princples, benefits and weaknesses of specific technologies must be comprehensible (e.g. Wikiversity course about different options of contact tracing). So public acceptance of technology needs capacity building and learning. So that people know what they are doing. Identify main steps for that capacity building course for public health authorities and the public would finaly use that app for contact tracing.
 * (Open Innovation Ecosystem) How can you use an Open Innovation Ecosystem to build with trust? Assume you have 1000 contributors that want contribute to an innovative step and the group of contributors perform experiments with different specifications, to find the best solutions in a process of innovation? Only 1 contributor comes up the best solution (999 have a result with a lower quality). Discuss the principle of "The winner takes it all" in comparison to the trust in a shared benefit of all 1000 contributors. What is a trusted open innovation ecosystem in which the contributors will share the benefits and drawback of the work for the innovative step. Open Innovation Ecosystem could provide open access to the results for all 1000 contributors to problem solving. Design an Open or Closed Innovation Ecosystem for yourself and explain to the other students why you designed the innovation ecosystem the way you did it. Ask the other students if they would trust your proposal of the innovation ecosystem as why they trust you or why they would not trust your proposal.
 * (Neuroscience) Some studies indicate that trust can be altered e.g. by the application of oxytocin. . Identify the current state of the art in neurosciences and discuss the societal challenges of those results? What are required ethical guidelines?

Trust between People and Collaboration
Trust can be attributed to relationships between people. Collaborative work requires a mutual trust between humans and respectful interaction based on human rights and a sustainable way of interaction. Decision making in a trusted network of people is made by many individuals and is composed of multiple single decisions.
 * Explain how a collaborative objective (e.g. of Humanitarian Open Streetmap Team, Doctors without Border, Wikipedia, ...) can be accomplished and contribute to a Common Good?
 * Define the terminology Collaboration and Interoperability and identify examples in which interoperability improves collaboration and vice versa, how collaboration can define requirements for interoperability.
 * Analyze learning environments between students and the relationship between students and teachers according to trust and privacy. The final degree will show the success at the end of a learning process. Explain the role of trust between students and teachers within learning process to make errors and learn from errors without the fear. Teachers as facilitators of learning processes and as supporters if difficulties and problems occur.

Trust between groups/organisations
Conceptually, trust is also attributable to relationships within and between social groups (history, families, friends, communities, organisations, companies, nations, etc.). It is a popular approach to frame the dynamics of inter-group and intra-group interactions in terms of trust. The trust formations of people towards different actors in society has been shaped into a generic model of trust with three levels of application, i.e. Macro, Micro, and Meso.

Trust of People in Technology/ICT
The Digital Revolution, the Internet of Things (IoT) and the notion of alternative facts creates a high scientific demand on trust in technology, ICT and privacy especially with the commercial data harvesting strategies of TwoogleBook et. al. . One of the key current challenges in the social sciences is to re-think how the rapid progress of technology has impacted constructs such as trust. This is specifically true for information technology that dramatically alters causation in social systems.

We access data, information and knowledge with information and communication technology. Key questions are:

 * is the information build on scientific facts and evidence?
 * who generated the information and are the named authors the real authors of the information?
 * what are the drivers for publishing a certain information?

In general we have to distinguish between:

 * (Technology) trust in technology, that is works as expected (no exploitation of user data) and
 * (Information Channel) trust in an information channel and
 * (Information) trust in the information exchange via the available information channel

When it comes to the relationship between people and technology, the attribution of trust is a matter of dispute. The intentional stance demonstrates that trust can be validly attributed to human relationships with complex technologies. However, rational reflection leads to the rejection of an ability to trust technological artefacts.

In the social sciences, the subtleties of trust are a subject of ongoing research. In sociology and psychology the degree to which one party trusts another is a measure of belief in the honesty, fairness, or benevolence of another party. The term "confidence" is more appropriate for a belief in the competence of the other party. Based on the most recent research, a failure in trust may be forgiven more easily if it is interpreted as a failure of competence rather than a lack of benevolence or honesty. In economics, trust is often conceptualized as reliability in transactions. In all cases trust is a heuristic decision rule, allowing the human to deal with complexities that would require unrealistic effort in rational reasoning.

Cooking/Roux

Roux
Description: Roux is a mixture of wheat flour and fat. It is the basis of three of the mother sauces of classical French cooking: sauce béchamel, sauce velouté, and sauce espagnole (and from those we can make all sorts of yummy sauces and dishes from cheese sauce to gumbo). Butter, vegetable oils, or lard are common fats used. It is used as a base for gravy, other sauces, soufflés, soups and stews.

Assessment Checklist
Objective: This will teach you to make a basic roux in 3 segments. One light, one medium, one dark. We will use a variety of fats, each best suited to the application.

Directions: each individual will prepare 3 rouxs. The first will be a light roux made with butter and flour. This should be prepared as if it were to be used in a béchamel sauce. The Second will be prepared medium for gravy and will be made of drippings (bacon drippings are easiest here) and flour. The third will be prepared for a gumbo and will be prepared dark, using vegetable oil as a base because it has a high burn point.

Items Needed
 * 2 cups butter (in 1 cup portions)
 * 1 cup vegetable oil
 * 3 cups flour (in 1 cup instalments)
 * 1 cast iron or other rounded skillet
 * 1 whisk (ideally a small one)

Scale
 * 4 (excellent) – All 3 sauces were properly prepared and have a good colour and constancy.
 * 3 – Rouxs are a shade over or under, but still serviceable.
 * 2 - Roux is over or underdone. At least one, probably the dark roux, is uselessly burned or uselessly underdone and tastes of flour (probably the light).
 * 1 - Roux is lumpy and over or underdone or both. Most do not taste good and may be burned or raw.
 * 0 – All 3 roux attempts are poor. Very little difference in shade between the 3, many lumps, and roux either over or underdone universally.  tastes of burn or flour.  Does not thicken well.

Conditions of Assessment
 * The proper cooking tools and ingredients are available
 * The individual indicates when the assessment should begin.
 * The assessment ends as soon as the individual indicates

Here We Go
Okay, now that you've gotten your assignment, let's go ahead and start work. Odds are good you've never made a roux before, so I'll walk you through it. Let's begin with the ...

Light Roux

 * You're going to want to use a cast iron skillet if you can, since it'll have the best application of heat for your roux. If you don't have one, a regular skillet will do.  Try to find one with rounded edges so you can get at it with your whisk (which we will need).

 * Now, put a cup of butter into the skillet on a medium heat and no higher. You don't want to burn your roux.

 * Once the butter is melted and the water is out of it (you'll know because the butter will stop making that sizzle noise) you can add your flour.

 * Go ahead and just dump it. No need to do it slowly, but make sure you start whisking right away.

 * Now the hard part. Keep whisking. It'll get boring, but do it.  it doesn't have to be constant or even fast, but keep that roux moving.  Eventually it will thicken up and the flour will cook into what we call a "White Roux" or "Blond Roux" on the dark side.  It will be mostly white, but still faintly tanish, as if it's starting to go golden (which it is).  This is when you're ready to turn it out, so dump this roux into a bowl and set about cleaning your skillet (if it's cast iron, remember to let it cool down first and clean with really hot water).

Medium Roux

A medium roux is often called a caramel or peanut butter roux due to the colour and that's what we're shooting for. Something the colour of light peanut butter or a caramel. Pretty much, we start like above and cook longer till we have the right mix.

 * Add the cup of butter, melt, get the water out, and add the flour as before.

 * Whisk this in really good till it's nice and smooth.

 * Then keep cooking on the same medium heat. It'll take time, but just keep the roux moving more or less constantly.  The flour will eventually start to cook.

 * Once the flour is a nice golden brown you'll get your brilliant peanut butter colour.

 * This is the sort of roux you'd want to use for a light gumbo or other soup.

 * Again, set it aside and clean your station up to prepare for your last roux.

Dark Roux

This time we're going to make a really dark roux called a "Brick Roux". This is the last stage of roux making right before it burns and is useless and it's the one you're most likely to mess up. Careful.

 * This time we're using vegetable oil instead of butter, because it's less likely to burn. The process is the same for the oil, get it hot, then add in the flour in equal amounts.

 * Keep stirring. Toward the end, whisk constantly. it'll happen fast.

 * As soon as the roux hits the colour of light brick, get it out of there. Don't pull the pan off the heat and wait, just start transferring it to a bowl.  The heat from the skillet will burn your roux.

 * If you've done it right, this roux will have a lot of flavour, but won't taste burned.

Thickening
Bear this is mind when using a roux. The darker it is, the less thickening power it has. The lighter it is, the less flavour it has.

This is what makes a blonde or peanut butter roux the most commonly used. they thicken well but also have flavour. A brick roux has a lot of flavour (this is what I would personally use for gumbo) but will barely thicken at all, so plan to use other thickening agents for that. Another type of roux, perhaps, or okra.

That completes your lesson in roux. Now that you can make one, you can make just about any sauce you can imagine. So let your mind go and see what you can come up with. Remember that cooking is a lot like playing, but you get to eat the mud pies ... without getting sick.

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 Dbobcat. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Dbobcat~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 23:30, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Boundary Value Problems/Numerical Methods

Return to Main Page *Boundary Value Problems

These lessons are to introduce you to Numerical Methods used to calculate numerical solutions to the 2-D BVPs discussed earlier. Two resources that would be useful for the exercises are
 * 1) MATLAB MathWorks
 * 2) MAPLE MAPLE

However any computational system that can solve a system of equations will meet the needs of many of the elementary exercises. Three Linux based packages (free) are:
 * 1) Scilab Scilab (similar to Matlab)
 * 2) Maxima Computer Algebra System Maxima
 * 3) Octave

'

Finite Difference Method
The Finite Difference method is a numerical method used for approximating the solution to a differential equation. The fundamentals of FD methods with application to an ODE and the 1-D heat equation can be found at [Finite Difference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_difference_method]

A particular application is the Finite Difference Time Domain method to wave propagation problems

Assignment: FD-1

 * Read the material at [Finite Difference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_difference_method].
 * Also read Chapter 7 in Power's
 * Attempt the following problems FD-1 problems
 * Check your results against the FD-1 posted solutions posted solutions.
 * If your solution provides additional insight (you think) to the solving of the problem, please create a solution using the solution template solution template

Finite Elements Method
The Finite Elements Method constitutes a numerical approach to approximating the solution of an ordinary differential equation over a two-dimensional grid that is not rectangular, or one in which the data points, or nodes, are not evenly spaced. This gives it an advantage over the Finite Differences Method.

The first step of the method consists of triangulating the region to be integrated by dividing it into triangles, with the nodes as vertices. The next step is to determine the values of the unknown function at the nodes. Here is where the "finite elements" come in. A finite element is a function $$\phi_j$$ whose graph is a pyramid with its peak over a node $$v_j$$. A finite element solution to an ODE is a linear combination of finite elements: $$U(v_j)=\sum_{j=1}^n C_j\phi_j(v_j)$$ where $$\phi_j(v_j)=\begin{cases}1 \text{ at j-node} \\ 0 \text{ at other nodes}\end{cases}$$. The constants $$C_j$$ are then the values of the function at the nodes. Once these values are found, each triangle is integrated using the "Three Corners" method (the triangular version of the Trapezoid method) and summed.

Plot of Finite Difference Example
Example of $$u_{rr}+\frac{1}{r}u_r+\frac{1}{r^2}u_{\theta \theta}=0$$ on a half annulus geometry with: ]
 * $$u(1,\theta)=sin(\theta)$$
 * $$u(2,\theta)=0$$
 * $$u(r,0)=0$$ for $$1<r<2$$
 * $$u(r,\pi)=0$$ for $$1<r<2$$

 * 2) Profession: Assist. Prof. Mathematics  (undergraduate education)
 * 3) Location: Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology.
 * 4) Primary Goal: I am interested in developing my courses online as part of the Wikiversity. I have started a Boundary Value Problems page but at this point I am still learning how to code in "wiki" and it does not have much content.
 * 5) Secondary Goal: A textbook for one of our introductory classes is listed at $170. Yet you can buy an earlier edition online for $30. Introductory texts have not really changed their content much, even though the new editions are sometimes in their 8th edition. Does it really take eight editions to get the fundamentals correct? So I am interested in exploring the use of Wiki-ology as a tool to educate people that cannot afford these prices.
