Nukes 6of6: Worst Case Scenario and Nuclear Waste Storage
Lecture by Professor Richard Muller of the University California, Berkeley. Taken from Lecture 7 of the spring 2006 webcasts of Physics For Future Presidents. Also known as Descriptive Introduction to Physics. Empahsis is on conceptual understanding, rather than mathematics. This lecture deals with nuclear reactions, bombs and reactors. Also some information about the nuclear programme of Iraq in the 90s and North Korea recently. All Lectures: www.youtube.com
How do you store and organize your lecture notes?
How do you organize your notes from all your different classes so that you can both bring them around with you, and find any specific notes you might want to?
I use a binder with dividers, but it gets pretty full. Some people use a different binder for each class. What do you do?
Teaching Political Science
Teaching a lecture class can be intimidating. How do you organize your points, make the material accessible, and connect with your students? Stanley Hoffmann, a Harvard University professor since 1955, draws from his vast experience to share his thoughts on teaching and demonstrates his techniques in a lecture class on Charles de Gaulle. Hoffmann emphasizes the importance of organization — focusing on the essentials rather than geteting lost in the details — and being accessible to students. He also addresses the challenges of helping his students bridge the gap between their world and other eras and cultures. For more, visit bokcenter.harvard.edu

Geologic Carbon Sequestration: Mitigating Climate Change by Injecting CO2 Underground
July 21, 2009 Berkeley Lab summer lecture: Climate change provides strong motivation to reduce CO2 emissions from the burning of fossil fuels. Carbon dioxide capture and storage involves the capture, compression, and transport of CO2 to geologically favorable areas, where its injected into porous rock more than one kilometer underground for permanent storage. Oldenburg, who heads Berkeley Labs Geologic Carbon Sequestration Program, will focus on the challenges, opportunities, and research needs of this innovative technology.
