New Robots Clone Themselves
space exploration and in hazardous environments, where they could take care of themselves without human help. One robot could even build out of its own components a new type of robot for a specific task, Lipson said. The robots and their capabilitie...
Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy: conservation biology
originally developed in Australia. Significant differences of approach in the two traditions were resolved in the late 1990s through the formulation of a consensus framework for the design and adaptive management of conservation area networks. This entry pre...
Robert Full on animal movement
surfaces, though, animals add claws. And you probably feel them if you grabbed it. Did you touch it? CA: I did. RF: And they do really well at grabbing onto surfaces with these claws. Mark Cutkosky at Stanford University, one of my collaborators, is an extraordinary engineer who developed this tec...
Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy: Chinese room argument
Reply The Robot Reply concedes Searle is right about the Chinese Room scenario: it shows that a computer trapped in a computer room cannot understand language, or know what words mean. The Robot reply is responsive to the problem of knowing the meaning of the Chin...

Research in the News: Tuberculosis - Out of Control Again (Grades 9-12)
designed to outsmart mutating bacteria. TB patients take several different antibiotics, either at the same time or in series. The chance that the bacteria will develop resistance to several different antibiotics is much much less than the likelihood that they will develop resistance to a...

37 Appendix B: How Can You Learn From Our Modular Approach? This guidebook includes inquiry-based activities for the classroom, for the laboratory, for the computer laboratory, and for homework. What do we mean by inquiry-based activities? Instead of giving you the answers and requiring you to memorize facts, we give you questions that will lead you toward a deeper understanding of chemistry concepts and approaches used by scientists in solving problems. The curriculum requires active participation from

No single site or approach seems overwhelmingly better than any other. Instead, the most important factor in preventing subsequent pregnancies may be the strength of the relationship built between the teenage mother and the individ- ual working with her. For instance, home visiting programs may encourage strong relationships because
