University of Canberra/Student satisfaction

This 2010 university student satisfaction data was systematically sampled from 300 University of Canberra students, as a class exercise for Survey research and design in psychology. For more information about the methodology and some other results, including a graph of the means shown below, please see http://ucspace.canberra.edu.au/display/7126/Research (2010-2011) and Survey research and design in psychology/Assessment/Project (2012-2013).

The data is based on a convenience sample of 300 students who were systematically sampled from the campus concourse area in Weeks 1 to 4, Sem 1, 2010. Links to data for 2011-2013 are at the end.

Some limitations of this data include:
 * Representativeness
 * e.g., part-time students were less likely to be on campus and therefore were less likely to be sampled
 * Approx. 20% of the sample consists of students enrolled in a third year research methods in psychology unit

Descriptive statistics
53 satisfaction items were measured on a 5-point scale, with higher scores indicating greater satisfaction.

2011-2012
Data is publically available - but haven't got the links in here yet, so ping [mailto:james.neill@canberra.edu.au james.neill@canberra.edu.au] for the links

Image Tagging File:FFA5-yh.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:FFA5-yh.jpg. I notice the image page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikimedia Commons (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page. If the content is a derivative of a copyrighted work, you need to supply the names and a licence of the original authors as well.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag, then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use to release it under the multilicense GFDL plus Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike All-version license or PD-self to release it into the public domain. See commons:Commons:Copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find all your uploads using the Gallery tool. Thank you.
 * Notice carboned via email. Geoff Plourde 23:21, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

File:HarryPotter.ogg
Hi there Yihulin. I'm afraid I've had to delete this file because it will be protected by copyright and to host it here would violate that copyright. Regards. Adambro 12:28, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
 * "it will be protected by copyright and to host it here would violate that copyright" <-- is this a legal opinion? Yihulin, I suggest you develop a fair use rationale for the deleted content. --JWSchmidt 12:49, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

Copyright problem with File:Tug of war-yh.jpg

 * David, the uploader clearly states authorship. Unless there is a policy requiring us to document this further, I'm letting this file pass. Feel free to discuss this or point to policy. Thanks for notifying the uploader, originally, but I now see that I'm confused: the file you tagged was deleted and you then tagged File:Tow-yh.jpg.

 * Yihulin, I am relying upon your statement of authorship, in other words, your apparent claim that you own the rights to this file and can legally grant them. If that is not true, please inform us otherwise; if we find that someone else owns this file, misrepresenting copyright status is a serious problem and could result in being blocked as a user. Thanks. --Abd 14:21, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

Harry Potter vs. Voldemort in the Goblet of Fire
Please watch the video bellow.

Especially pay attention on the section of 1:44 - 2:25 in which Harry Potter was fighting Voldemort. At the beginning of the fighting, Voldemort got the upper hand because his power was stronger. In other words, if the magic power made by Harry was stronger than the one from Voldemort, Harry was able to control and defeat the enemy.

Similar examples
These are examples related to two forces against each other and you must have many similar experiences in your daily life.

What is Force Field Analysis?
Now, come back to your workplace. Have you ever thought why your supervisor hinders your effort in launching a new reformation? Why your good suggestions are never implemented? While you may or may not be able to observe the reasons, you can feel that if the supporting forces are not with you, you cannot reach to a result as desired as you thought.

Force field analysis is a management tool to analyze the driving forces and restraining forces which affect change initiatives in organizations. It was introduced by Kurt Lewin in the early 1950s. The concept now is widely used in organization development as a technique for
 * assessing and identifying effects,
 * planning feasible implementations,
 * implementing organizational changes, and
 * evaluating strategies.

In this lesson, we place the focus on the use of FFA as a tool in the area of needs analysis to help you identify your client’s problems and then plan feasible recommendations.

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 Sem. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Sem~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 23:57, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

You have been blocked for block evasion. Moulton, you know we cannot allow that behavior. You have a platform to add and we are all well aware of what you think on the matter. Please do not inflame the situation by evading your block like that. Ottava Rima (talk) 14:40, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

 * What you are saying is that Hillgentleman is right. Wikiversity lacks mutually understood and mutually agreed-upon terms of engagement, and thus does not afford common ground.  The evidence for this view is the high frequency of controversial rollbacks, reversions, deletions, blocks, and bans.  See The Governance Model of Wikipedia for more details.  —Moulton 14:48, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

User:Egm6341.s10.team3.heejun/HW5 update

=  Compare the result of the given circumference formular with the complete elliptic integral of the second kind method =

Problem Statement
$$ \displaystyle Compare\, the\, results\, i)\, and\, ii)\, $$

$$ \displaystyle i)\, Evaluate\, the\, given\, circumference\, formular\, with\, Comp. Trap,\, Romberg\, and\, Clencurt\, $$

$$ \int_{\theta=0}^{\theta=2\pi} dl = C $$

$$ \displaystyle Where\,\,\,\, \begin{align} dl &=d\theta [r^2+(\frac{dr}{d\theta})^2]^(\frac{1}{2})\\ r(\theta) &= \frac{1-e^2}{1-ecos(\theta)} \\ e &= sin(\frac{\pi}{12}) \\\end{align}\ $$

Ref: Lecture Notes [[media:Egm6341.s10.mtg25.djvu|p.25-2]] and [[media:Egm6341.s10.mtg30.djvu|p.30-3]]

$$ \displaystyle ii)\, The\, complete\, elliptic\, integral\, of\, the\, second\, kind\, method\, $$

$$ \displaystyle C = 4a E (e) $$

$$ \displaystyle E(e) = \int_{0}^{\pi /2} [1-e^2sin^2(\theta)]^{(\frac{1}{2})} d\theta $$

Ref: Team 4 in HW 4 [|problem_11] and Wikipedia[|Elliptic_integral]

Solution
$$ \displaystyle i)\, Quad\, function\, $$

$$ \displaystyle a)\, Define\, function\,\, dl\, $$

$$ \displaystyle b)\, Integrate\,\, dl\,\, with\, Quad\, $$

$$ \displaystyle Therefore\,\,\, \int_{\theta=0}^{\theta=2\pi} dl = 6.176601938988738 $$

$$ \displaystyle ii)\, Comp.\, Trap.\, $$

$$ \displaystyle a)\, Define\, function\,\, dl\, $$

$$ \displaystyle b)\, Integrate\,\, dl\,\, with\, Comp.\, Trap.\, $$

$$ \displaystyle Therefore\,\,\, dl = 6.176601987658693 $$

$$ \displaystyle iii)\, Romberg\, $$

$$ \displaystyle a)\, Define\, function\,\, dl\, $$

$$ \displaystyle b)\, Integrate\,\, dl\,\, with\, Romberg\, $$

$$ \displaystyle Therefore\,\,\, dl = 6.176601987700596 $$

$$ \displaystyle iiii)\, Clencurt\, $$

$$ \displaystyle The\, above\, input\, is\, under\, BUSY\, on\, Matlab.\,\, Acually\, I\, have\, no\, idea\, for\, it.\, I\, may\, approach\, with\, other\, ways\,$$

$$ \displaystyle iiiii)\, The\, complete\, elliptic\, integral\, of\, the\, second\, kind\, method\, $$

$$ \displaystyle Therefore\,\,\, C = 4aE(e) = 6.176601933080789\,\,\, when\, a=1\, $$

$$ \displaystyle Therefore\, $$

Portal:Jewish Studies/Eliashiv discussion

Birthday greetings
Happy belated 100th birthday to Rabbi Yosef Sholom Eliashiv. May he continue to lead the Jewish nation for many years to come, Biz a Hondred oon Tzvonzig! Chesdovi (talk) 10:59, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

Criticism of Rabbi Elyashiv
What Rabbi Elyashiv rules is not synonymous with how Jews should behave, even though so many Jews seem to think it is. The leader may interpret the law, but the law still governs the leader and places limits on his authority. Chapter 12 of the book of Melachim Aleph (1 Kings) in the Tanakh criticizes leaders who are too restrictive of their people. King Rehoboam is told to "lighten the harsh labor and the heavy yoke which your father laid on us." He responds by saying, "My father imposed a heavy yoke on you, and I will add to your yoke." This seems to be Rabbi Elyashiv's approach to Judaism. While R. Elyashiv has imposed many stringencies, such as the ban on sheitels from India and the ban on the use of a Sabbath elevator, he has contributed few leniencies. In Rehoboam's time, most of the Israelite tribes ran off in revulsion from Rehoboam and joined forces with the idolatrous King Jeroboam. These people became the Ten Lost Tribes. This is like what is happening in Judaism today, when so many Jews are assimilating themselves out of a dialogue such as this. These people find the Haredi or Orthodox interpretations of the commandments too burdensome for them, and are alienating themselves from the whole of Judaism. Today, one of the greatest threats to the continuity of the Jewish people is that so many modern Jews are living as Gentiles, marrying Gentiles and raising their children non-Jewish. However, a basic premise of Rabbinical Judaism and Devarim (Deuteronomy) is that Jewish precepts are not too difficult. Perhaps fewer Jews would be strangers if Rabbi Elyashiv, in the spirit of Rav Kook, embraced other Jewish movements for what they were and what they could accomplish rather than criticizing them for what they are not going to be and trying to discredit their conversions. The secular and religious, after all, are in the same world together. Islam believes there is no fundamental distinction between the two. However, Rabbi Elyashiv is cutting off so many people simply because their involvement in derech eretz means that they will read the Torah according to one of the other 69 interpretations besides his. If every Jew is like a letter in the Torah, I am concerned that R. Elyashiv is erasing whole passages from our book. May Rabbi Elyashiv live to a hundred and twenty, but I hope he does not spend another 20 years thinking up new ways to restrict Jewish life.

Gospel of John (CBS)/Week 1/Essay

I have decided to offer periodic extra credit opportunities in the form of essay prompts. These essays allow you to demonstrate comprehension of one of the major themes of this unit, without the stress that would come from making it mandatory. The question for this unit is: ''Describe the audience that the Gospel of John was written for. How did John's choice of language and words make it more effective among its intended audience?'' You are allowed to post on this week's talk page and seek help. I will be responding to questions placed there, or you can collaborate with others to better understand an answer. However, the submission I receive must be your original work, as I will not tolerate plagiarism. I really have no interest in expelling anyone from this class, so please don't plagiarize someone's else's essay. Your essay should be written clearly and free of major grammatical and style errors. I recommend Strunk and White's The Elements of Style if you need a resource about formulating your writing. The basic essay format requires an introduction, a body, and a conclusion. Beyond the existence of these three simple sections, there is no prescribed length, number of paragraphs, or word count; as you should focus on quality over quantity. Likewise, you should focus on answering the question over adhering to form. I will be reading your essay and providing feedback, so my ability to actually read it is important. This assignment must therefore be word processed in a legible font with consistent formatting. You are not restricted to classmates and are free to work with anyone you want when composing your essay. This essay must be turned into Moodle prior to the Unit 1 test. Click on the assignment marked “Essay 1” and upload your essay as a OpenOffice, Word, or Wordpad document (.odt, .doc, or .rtf). It is your responsibility to get the assignment to me before the deadline. If you are unable to upload the document, send me an email with your essay as an attachment.

Wikiversity:Talking point

Talking point is a Wikiversity initiative created in Easter 2010, with the aim of being a debate / discussion area for regular contributors, visitors, teachers, learners - all comers, really!

A topic will remain active for a period, perhaps a day, perhaps a month - or somewhere in between - the idea is to allow relatively superficial teaching and learning to occur, although with links to deeper resources, or perhaps the energy created to spin off and work on resources right here on wikiversity.

This is a place to ask questions, speak freely (forthright is good, but always with respect, please), and share your views on the matter at hand. Please don't edit others' comments, and please sign yours with four tildas. Thanks! Privatemusings 02:21, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

29th March - Perspectives on health care internationally
You might want to take a look at Wikipedia's article on US healthcare reform or Wikipedia's article on the March 2010 act.

Living down here in Australia, it struck me following the recent news of Obama's landmark health care bill, how little I know about the modern US healthcare system. I did live in the US for a while, and always had private health insurance, but was lucky enough not to use it (I probably attended the doctors once or twice, but can't remember how that worked).

My reaction to Obama's act passing was relief and hope - it seemed to me to be shameful that so many in the US didn't have access to healthcare, and I've always supported the NHS in England, and the public hospital system down here in Australia. Do you agree with me that this is a fantastic step forward for both the US, and the world?

Here are some other questions I'm interested in asking editors from all countries;

 * Do you pay for healthcare?
 * roughly how much?
 * Do you know how other country's healthcare systems work at all?
 * Particularly, are you aware of a really good system in place anywhere in the world?
 * Hows about a really bad system? - what works and what doesn't?

I'll sign this post - but do feel free to edit above if you think the 'proposition' could be improved, or clarified etc. - and be bold! - let's talk and learn! Privatemusings 02:21, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

your views
Spot on, Privatemusings! You're exactly right :-) Privatemusings 02:33, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

one at a time, please ;-) - maybe we don't quite have the participation we'd like yet :-) - do feel free to pipe up! Privatemusings 08:20, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

 Hello , you can call me Jacob Frank. I'd like to be your mascot and welcome you to Wikiversity. Even though I was a plain and untutored man back in 18th-century Europe, that still didn't stop me from contributing my ideas to the world. Neither should it stop you. As a religious leader who developed the doctrine of "purification through transgression," my advice to you is to be bold and to ignore all rules—yes, these are two of Wikiversity's official policies! Happy editing.

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 DMG. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name DMG~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)

User:Fannyl

=== Fanny is lecturer at University of Canberra, teaching Industrial Design. She is interested in promoting "culturally sensitive design" and a more ethical design practice.

The topic of her PhD, "Exploring culturally sensitive design in Aboriginal Australia"Indigenous communities, cultural identity and design is detailed below:

Industrial Design is about creating manufactured objects for people. These objects, commonly called products, are most of the time mass-produced and target Western World environments and users. Before industrial design existed, the concept of ‘product’ wasn’t known, and tribes made objects with their hands to hunt, fish and protect themselves from the elements. With the invention of the wheel tribes settled, gathered in communities, villages. They started growing their food instead on relying on hunting or fishing for survival, and developed a whole universe of tools and objects to ease their lives and add comfort to their existences. The Aboriginal people are amongst the oldest human groups ever known. Before the arrival of Captain Cook in Australia (1770), the Aborigines had been living according to their own traditions. They were hunter gatherers, lived in basic settlements and crafted a whole range of traditional objects linked to ceremonial life, hunting and fishing or stone tools. The arrival of British colonies made new materials available, which the Aborigines used and transformed to make new objects suited to their needs and millenary traditions. All over Australia the Aboriginal way of life has been severely affected by the effects of colonization, however many traditions have survived and this study proposes to observe the way the not always smooth blending of two cultures (Western world with Aboriginal) has meant a deep evolution and redefining of the Aboriginal’s material culture. Indeed, objects from the Western World have been adopted, adapted or rejected by Aboriginal people over the past two centuries. In this beginning of 21st century, globalisation has invited itself even in the most remote Aboriginal communities, forcing manufactured items into traditional behaviours and environments. How has this evolution happened and how did Aboriginal communities cope with this rapid change in material culture? This question is central to Fanny's study, which aims not only at analysing this evolution but also at measuring the impact of western world objects and built environment on traditions and the everyday life. This thesis identifies areas where objects or housing may not be well accepted because they may not be relevant to the Aboriginal culture and way of life. The conclusions of the thesis will lead to propose guidelines for the design of specific culturally sensitive objects and housing relevant to the needs and wants of Aboriginal people in Australia, with a focus on the West Kimberley in a specific case study.

File:Bicycle-Cardboard-Sheffield Hallam University.jpg
Hello Fannyl, I'm and I wanted to let you know that one of your files was recently tagged for deletion as having no fair use rationale. Freely licensed media contributions to Wikiversity, such as images you have created yourself, are highly encouraged; but if an image or other media file has been taken from someone or somewhere else, Wikiversity requires that such non-free content must be tagged with an appropriate explaining why the image is important for Wikiversity's scope. Files not given such an explanation may be deleted within one week. See these considerations and Wikiversity's official criteria for the official policy on inclusion of fair use content and for more details. That image by the way, is most likely copyrighted to your purported source Sheffield Hallam University, and the license in their terms of use is incompatible with Wikiversity's free content guidelines. So it needs a proper fair use description to remain here at Wikiversity. I think you can consult site custodian Jtneill or email the University directly to find out the best way we can approach this issue.

Physics/Essays/Fedosin/Monopoles

Monopoles – physical objects that contain the source (charge) of some field isotropically distributed around the respective object. A typical example is an electric monopole with electric charge, the electric field of which is directed radially around and decreases with distance from the monopole inversely proportional to the square of the distance. Similarly, the gravitational monopole has around a radial gravitational field strength and the monopole mass plays the role of gravitational charge. Magnetic monopole is now regarded as a hypothetical object with a non-zero magnetic charge and magnetic field. The torsion monopole has the same status and would be a hypothetical source of torsion charge and gravitational torsion field in the covariant theory of gravitation (or the hypothetical source of gravitomagnetic field in the general relativity). In reality instead of magnetic monopoles the monopole quasiparticles were found in condensed-matter systems and in superfluids. The monopole quasiparticle typically is a magnet with two different magnetic poles at the ends, the north pole and the south pole, which connected by magnetic string. The magnetic fields of poles of the quasiparticle looks like the field of a magnetic monopole.

The hypothetical particle that has both electric and magnetic charge is known as a dion. The object with separated positive and negative charges is the electric dipole, which may be modelled with the help of two electric monopoles. The monopoles represent the first terms in the multipole expansions of different field functions.

Charges and masses
Some monopoles can be described with the following fundamental physical charges and masses:

The elementary charge as an electric charge quantum, first proposed by G. Stoney (1881):

 * $$q_e = e = 1.602176565\cdot 10^{-19} $$ C.

The fictitious magnetic charge quantum, first proposed by Paul Dirac (1931), which equals to elementary magnetic flux $$\phi_0 $$ and twice magnetic flux quantum $$ \Phi_0 $$:
 * $$q_m = \phi_0 = h/e = 2\Phi_0 = 4.135667513\cdot 10^{-15} $$ J/A,

where $$h $$ is the Planck constant.

The proton mass as a gravitational mass quantum:

 * $$m_p = 1.672621777 \cdot 10^{-27} $$ kg.

The fictitious gravitational torsion quantum, which equals to elementary torsion flux $$\Phi_p$$ and twice velocity circulation quantum $$ \sigma_p $$ and strong gravitational torsion flux quantum $$ \Phi_\Gamma $$ :
 * $$ m_{\Omega} = \Phi_p = h/m_p = 2\sigma_p =2 \Phi_\Gamma = 3.961487086\cdot 10^{-7} $$ m2/s.

The electron mass as a gravitational mass quantum:
 * $$m_e = 9.10938291\cdot 10^{-31} $$ kg.

The fictitious gravitational torsion quantum related to electron:
 * $$ \Phi_e = h/m_e = 7.273895098\cdot 10^{-4} $$ m2/s.

Coupling constants
The fine structure constant for electromagnetic interaction of two electric monopoles with elementary charges is:
 * $$ \alpha = \frac{e^2}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0 \hbar c},$$

where $$~ \hbar = \frac {h}{2\pi } $$ is the reduced Planck constant, $$~ c $$ is the speed of light in vacuum, $$~ \varepsilon_0 $$ is the electric constant.

The coupling constant for interaction of two nucleons as gravitational monopoles in the field of strong gravitation according to the gravitational model of strong interaction is:
 * $$\alpha_{pp}= \frac{ k \Gamma m^2_p }{\hbar c }=13.4 k $$,

where $$ ~ \Gamma $$ is the strong gravitational constant, $$ ~ k $$ is equal to 0.26 for the interaction of two nucleons, and tending to 1 for particles with a lower density of matter.

For the coupling constant for interaction of nucleon and electron as gravitational monopoles in the field of strong gravitation we have:
 * $$\alpha_{pe}= \frac{ \Gamma m_p m_e }{\hbar c }= \alpha $$.

For the coupling constant for interaction of two electrons as gravitational monopoles in the field of strong gravitation we have:
 * $$\alpha_{ee}= \frac{ \Gamma m^2_e }{\hbar c }= \alpha \frac{m_e}{m_p}$$.

Since there is $$ ~ \frac{m_p}{m_e}\approx 1836 $$, then the electromagnetic interaction of electrons 1836 times more of their strong gravitational interaction.

If the magnetic monopoles could exist in nature the energy of their magnetic interaction would be equal to:
 * $$ U_m = \frac { q_m^2 }{4\pi \mu_0 r},$$

where $$ ~ \mu_0 $$ is the vacuum permeability, $$ ~ r $$ is the distance between two magnetic charges.

The energy of photon is:
 * $$ U_{ph} = \frac { hc }{\lambda}.$$

With condition $$ ~ \lambda = 2\pi r $$ the magnetic coupling constant will be:

 * $$ \beta = \frac { U_m }{ U_{ph} } = \frac { q_m^2 }{4\pi \mu_0 \hbar c }= \frac{h}{2\mu_0 c e^2 }=\frac{1}{4\alpha } . $$

Charges and masses
In the theory of Infinite Hierarchical Nesting of Matter it is supposed that magnetars as a special class of neutron stars and stellar analogue of protons may have a certain electric charge:
 * $$ Q_s = 5.5\cdot 10^{18} $$ C.

The typical mass of magnetar is about $$~M_{s}= 1.35 M_c=2.7\cdot 10^{30}$$ kg. The mass of the discon – the analogue of the electron is: $$~ M_d=1.5 \cdot 10^{27}$$ kg or 250 Earth masses, or 0.78 Jupiter masses.

The stellar gravitational torsion flux quantum, as the velocity circulation quantum, is: $$ \Phi_s = \frac{ \pi \hbar_s }{M_s} = 6.4 \cdot 10^{11}$$ m2/s, where $$~ \hbar_s= 5.5 \cdot 10^{41} $$ J∙s is the stellar Dirac constant for the system with the magnetar.

The stellar magnetic flux quantum : $$ \Phi_m = \frac{\pi \hbar_s } { Q_s } = 3.1\cdot 10^{23} $$ J/A.

Stellar coupling constants
The stellar fine structure constant is: $$~ \alpha_s = \frac{ Q_s^2}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0 \hbar_s C_s }= \frac {G M_s M_d}{\hbar_s C_s }= \alpha ,$$ where $$ ~ G $$ is the gravitational constant, $$~ C_s= 6.8 \cdot 10^{7}$$ m/s is the stellar speed as the characteristic speed of the matter particles in a typical neutron star.

The coupling constant for interaction of two magnetars as gravitational monopoles is:
 * $$\alpha_{ss}= \frac{ k G M^2_s }{ \hbar_s C_s }=13.4 k $$.

Due to SPФ symmetry and similarity of matter levels, the values of dimensionless constants are the same as at the level of atoms and on the level of stars.

Wikizens with a Second Life account

This learning project wants to explore how learning can take place when using Second Life. If you want to connect with other Wikiversity users, please see list below.

Participants

 * A wikizen is a person that is one with the wiki community that he or she participates in.

 * Second Life account: ErkanYilmaz Core, Wikiversity user: User:Erkan Yilmaz
 * I was surprised how easy it was participating at Second Life (registering and in linux you just have to start a shell script after extracting the downloaded archive). Have to investigate more. Erkan Yilmaz uses the Chat (try) 12:18, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Second Life account: David Fingerpin, Wikiversity user: User:Geoff Plourde
 * you?

Where to start?

 * Try to connect to people:
 * In Second Life you can connect with: menu Search > People and then "Add Friend..."
 * At Wikiversity use a specific user's talk page (see also: User talk page).
 * How about adding to your user page such a box? (so others get interested)
 * just add:

 * Look if you find something of interest in Category:Second Life. Nothing you like there? Be bold + add something fresh.
 * Create location in Second Life where learners can come to
