  • The study concluded that children, especially in low income groups, learned an average of 7.5 more letters than children who didn't use the system during the same time period.
  • A new study indicates that preschoolers become literate faster in a curriculum that uses video and online technology. Menlo Park's SRI International conducted the research at a school in East Palo Alto. Do literacy skills increase when preschool classrooms incorporate video and games? To answer that question, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting commissioned Education Development Corporation and SRI International. They studied 80 classrooms from New York to Ravenswood Child Development Center in East Palo Alto, where Tanya Senegal teaches 4-year-olds. "They're great," she says. "As you can see, they're eager, they love the sound, they love the music. And I like the fact that they can get up and be engaged with the video. They don't have to just sit."

      Note 1: Regardless of this evidence showing that Rohn possessed many different forms of false identification, the court reversed Rohn's conviction because the government was unable to show that Rohn "knowingly possess[ed] with intent to use unlawfully or transfer unlawfully five or more identification documents"^'' as required by 18 U.S.C. § 1028(a)(3).^^ Note 2: n unlawful use because Rohn had not demonstrated a lawful one."^^ The court stated that the government tried to convict Rohn under a statute that Congress did not write, and that because the government did not technically meet all elements of the statute, the conviction had to be overturned. Thus, even though the government had charged an individual who had obviously stolen and used many different identities, the government was unable to convict this individual based on the technical language in the statute. Note 3: The U.S. Supreme Court agreed with the Petitioner, holding that the government must prove that a defendant knew that the "means of identification" he or she unlawfully transferred, possessed, or used did, in fact, belong to another person.'**^  Note 4: Thus, because the government could not prove that the petitioner technically knew that the identification numbers belonged to other people, the Supreme Court reversed the aggravated identity theft charges.'*'

  • The technology is based on magnetic induction -- the process used to recharge electric toothbrushes. In the toothbrush, the base has a magnetic coil that generates a magnetic field. A second coil in the toothbrush captures some of that field, inducing an electric current.But electric toothbrushes transfer power only from the primary coil to the secondary one at very close range. Move the brush a short distance from the base, and it won't charge.
  • WiTricity has signed a technology transfer and licensing agreement with MediaTek, a semiconductor company in Taiwan, to collaborate on systems for wireless charging of mobile handsets, tablet computers, game controllers and other devices, Mr. Giler said.

    AFP - RELAXNEWS (English International Version) Two film stars, Michael Douglas and Paul Rudd, are to share the title role in the next film from "The World's End" director Edgar Wright, due 2015. After Robert Redford's stint in "Captain America: The Winter Soldier," Marvel has recruited another legendary actor for an upcoming blockbuster in Michael Douglas. The 69-year-old will become the face of Henry Pym and hand over the Ant-Man moniker to Scott Lang, the new hero played by Paul Rudd. Ant-Man first appeared in print in 1962 and has become the alter ego for a number of Marvel characters; the film sees Lang succeed Pym as the electronics whizz in charge of wearing the Ant-Man mantle, able to shrink, grow, and communicate with insects. Dated for July 31, 2015, "Ant-Man" should also result in the character's addition to the supporting cast of the next Avengers film, set for mid-2018.

  • To help students who have auditory processing problems or dyslexia, schools are using various computer technologies to make students more aware of the sounds of words when others speak or when students themselves read aloud.
  • Recent summer school data revealed that this combination of technology and direct instruction helped some students improve as much as two grade levels in their word attack skills over six weeks, Egli says.
