Free Download TTC - Warping Reality Inside the Psychology of Cults Released 10/2024 MP4 | Video: h264, 1280x720 | Audio: AAC, 44.1 KHz, 2 Ch Genre: eLearning | Language: English | Duration: 12 Lessons ( 6h 15m ) | Size: 5.23 GB Many of us have a deep, personal drive to seek inner fulfillment. We want to grow as individuals, explore our own potential, and make an important and lasting contribution to the world. It's easy to run into groups that promise to help us along the way, and some of these groups are sincere. When a group, or even a charismatic individual, promises to help us meet our goals but then corrupts our good intentions for their own gain-when they exploit people in an organized fashion-that's when the situation turns into something destructive. That's when you may have become a member of a cult. And it can happen much more easily than you might think. In the 12 fascinating lectures of Warping Reality: Inside the Psychology of Cults, you will learn about some of the most widely known cults of modern times. But unlike any standard news reporting or documentary about groups like The Peoples Temple, the Manson "Family," the Branch Davidians, Heaven's Gate, Children of God, Unification Church, or NXIVM, your expert, Dr. Wind Goodfriend, will help you explore the psychology of these cults. How could these cult leaders have committed such heinous crimes under the guise of "helping" members in their development? And why is it so easy for cults to bring people into the fold? There are thousands of cults in existence right now, so working to understand how cults operate-and why even skeptical, well-informed people can fall prey to their promises-is a crucial undertaking for the sake of your safety and that of your loved ones. Meeting Former Cult Members In this course, you will not only learn about cults, but you will also meet two former cult members who are willing to share their stories. They explain what led them to join these groups, what they had hoped to get from the groups versus the reality, and why they each stayed for over a decade before walking away. You'll meet Alexandra Amor, author of the award-winning Cult, A Love Story, as well as numerous other books, both fiction and nonfiction. Alexandra discusses her involvement with a cult called The Circle located in British Columbia. When she joined, it seemed to be just a group of people who were all interested in spiritual growth, with a leader who could help guide Alexandra's spiritual maturation. You'll also meet Tom Heinzen, a professor emeritus of psychology and author and coauthor of several books. Tom joined a group called Salem Acres in rural Illinois. It seemed to be a group of very loving people who were simply working the land of a rundown farm and building apartments. Alexandra and Tom eventually realized the groups they had joined were not for their benefit-not at all. Dr. Goodfriend will introduce you to the "eight deadly sins" (identified by Robert J. Lifton) that are often used to characterize cults. These traits become more than simple bullet points or guidelines when revealed through the real-world experiences of Alexandra and Tom. The traits include Milieu Control. This type of control involves the control of all communication within the group and also between the group and the outside world. Demand for Purity. Cult members receive constant judgment from the cult leader and the group members. Standards of behavior are set impossibly high, with the cult leader being the only judge. Punishments are imposed when group members step over the line. Doctrine over Person. The cult leader gaslights members to the point that they question their own instincts and perceptions, warping their own thoughts and memories. The Psychology of Cult Leaders Many books and documentaries have described cult leaders, but here you will dive below the surface to reach the "why" of these charismatic and destructive individuals. What is the psychological profile of a cult leader? What are the personality traits or circumstances that contribute to the cult leader's rare ability to amass a loyal following and their malevolent mindset? Most cult leaders suffered through a traumatic childhood. For those individuals, their childhood trauma left them with a pathological need to control everything and everyone in their environment as a way of avoiding that same hurt ever again. If that pathology is combined with the ability of a master manipulator, the individual can control a large following. When analyzing the "why" of a cult leader's behavior, you will consider three major psychological factors Narcissistic Personality Disorder. This disorder is noted in people who have a grandiose sense of their own importance and believe they are destined for greatness. Some psychologists believe this is actually a mask for deep-seated insecurity, which could be one reason they cannot tolerate anyone questioning their authority. Antisocial Personality Disorder. People with this disorder may behave impulsively and/or violently and may be manipulative and avoid responsibility. Both people with this disorder and narcissists can exhibit a chilling lack of empathy for others. Psychopathology. While "psychopath" is not an official diagnosis, it is a term often used in the criminal justice system. It can include the disordered traits listed above, as well as a superficial charm. Without this key feature of superficial charm, cult leaders wouldn't be able to attract a consistent stream of new followers. You Would Never Join a Cult . Would You? Chances are each of us is certain we would never join a cult. We like to think that we would never be so gullible as to give up all our possessions and freedoms simply because some fake guru told us to. We would never cut all communication with our family just because a charismatic grifter said our earthly ties were destroying our spiritual ascent. We would certainly never allow our children to be sexually abused by a self-proclaimed prophet who said it was for the benefit of the group's salvation. And yet many thousands have done these things-and worse. In 1978, more than 900 members of Jim Jones' Peoples Temple were murdered (including 300 children) or committed "revolutionary suicide" because Jim Jones told them to. We imagine cult members to be desperate, ignorant, hopeless individuals who would follow any leader and believe any doctrine. But that is not at all what social scientists have found. Instead, they have found that people who enter a cult are from all educational levels, religions, and economic and ethnic backgrounds. As a group, they are neither desperate nor ignorant. While a common profile of a typical cult member doesn't seem to exist, cult members do seem to have several things in common. They tend to be Going through some type of major life transition; "Seekers" who are looking for a purpose in life or a community to be a part of; and Capable, industrious, and well-liked people who believe the cult will help them become a better person or help them make the world a better place. It is not the cult members who were interested in cult membership to abuse and betray others, but it is the cult leader who has lied to, manipulated, and used their members in fraudulent and violent ways. Learning about cults, and the psychology of their leaders, is the best way to limit their ability to gain control over our communities, loved ones, and ourselves. What Will You Learn?

Free Download TTC - History of Ancient Rome Last updated 10/2024 MP4 | Video: h264, 1280x720 | Audio: AAC, 44.1 KHz, 2 Ch Genre: eLearning | Language: English | Duration: 48 Lessons ( 24h 12m ) | Size: 20.2 GB There are many reasons to study ancient Rome. Rome's span was vast. In the regional, restless, and shifting history of continental Europe, the Roman Empire stands as a towering monument to scale and stability. At its height, the Roman Empire, unified in politics and law, stretched from the sands of Syria to the moors of Scotland, and it stood for almost 700 years. Rome's influence is indelible. Europe and the world owe a huge cultural debt to Rome in so many fields of human endeavor, such as art, architecture, engineering, language, literature, law, and religion. In this course you see how a small village of shepherds and farmers rose to tower over the civilized world of its day and left an indelible mark on history. Rome's story is riveting. Professor Garrett G. Fagan draws on a wealth of primary and secondary sources, including recent historical and archaeological scholarship, to introduce the fascinating tale of Rome's rise and decline. You learn about all the famous events and personalities Horatius at the bridge Hannibal crossing the Alps during Rome's life-or-death war with Carthage Caesar assassinated before a statue of his archrival Pompey Doomed lovers Antony and Cleopatra Mad and venal emperors Nero and Caligula The conversion of Constantine, and more. From pre-Roman Italy through the long centuries of Republican and then Imperial rule, Professor Fagan interweaves narrative and analysis. Chronologically, the focus is on the years from 200 B.C.E. to 200 A.D., when Roman power was at its height. The narrative of the rise and fall of Rome is itself compelling, and Professor Fagan's richly detailed and often humorous discussions of Roman life are uniquely memorable. You study women and the family, slaves, cities, religious customs, the ubiquitous and beloved institution of public bathing, the deep cultural impact of Hellenism, and such famous Roman amusements as chariot racing and gladiatorial games. "Images and themes derived from or rooted in ancient Rome continue to exert an influence on the modern mind," says Professor Fagan. "Unlike many ancient states, Rome changed hugely in many spheres over the course of its 1,500-year history, and thus the history of Rome is an engaging, complex, and challenging subject." From Village to Monarchy to Republic The first 10 lectures of this course map the development of a group of preliterate hamlets into the Roman Republic. In them, you learn about The nature of the historical evidence for antiquity The geopolitical and cultural shape of pre-Roman Italy The foundation legends of Rome itself The cycle of stories that surrounds the kings of Rome The shape of early Roman society The fall of the monarchy at Rome and the foundation, in its wake, of the Republic (traditionally dated to 509 B.C.E.). These lectures examine two major forces that shaped the early Republic: the Struggle of the Orders and Roman military expansion in Italy. The lectures also explain how the Romans ruled their conquered territories in Italy, setting the foundations for the later acquisition and maintenance of the Empire. Early Expansion and Rapid Collision Moving outside of Italy, you next explore the expansion of Roman power in the 3rd and 2nd centuries B.C.E. In two lectures Professor Fagan charts the course of the Romans' first two titanic struggles with their archrival in the west, Carthage. In these wars, the Romans developed a large-scale navy, sent armies overseas, acquired foreign territories, and displayed what was to become one of their chief characteristics: a dogged determination to prevail, even in the face of seemingly impossible odds. This was particularly clear in the Second Punic War, when the gifted Carthaginian general Hannibal roamed freely in Italy, threatening the city of Rome itself. Greek Influence and Roman Government In Lectures 16-19, Professor Fagan pauses the narrative to examine the influence of Greek culture on Rome and the nature of the Roman Republican system of government. This latter system-complex and replete with archaisms and redundancies-has influenced the form of several modern policies, including that of the United States. Finally, Professor Fagan examines the pressures of empire on Roman society, charting considerable social, economic, and political changes brought about by Rome's overseas expansion. On the rocks of these pressures, the Republic was destined to founder. The Roman Revolution Lectures 20-27 follow the course of what modern scholars have termed the "Roman Revolution." In the century between 133 and 31 B.C.E., the Roman Republic tore itself apart. It is a period of dramatic political and military developments, of ambitious generals challenging the authority of the state, of civil wars and vicious violence, and of some of the first great personalities of European history: Marius, Sulla, Pompey, and Julius Caesar. The story is intriguing, complicated, and at times horrendous, and it illustrates perfectly the historical principle of contingency. With a few exceptions, each protagonist in the drama of the Revolution acted within the bounds of necessity or precedent, and thereby set new and dangerous precedents for later protagonists to follow. In this way, the Roman Revolution was not a staged or planned event, but a cumulative snowball of crises that combined to shatter the system of Republican government. After pausing to examine the social and cultural life of the Late Republic, you return to the last phases of the Revolution and the rise to power of the man who was to become Rome's first emperor, Augustus. The Roman Empire Lectures 31-33 examine the long reign of Augustus (31 B.C.E.-14 A.D.) and his new political order, the Prin[beeep]te. The Prin[beeep]te stood for centuries and brought stability and good government in a way that the old Republic could not. Augustus's solution to the Republic's problems was clever and subtle. It also had a flaw at its core-the issue of succession-and what happened when an emperor died was to prove the single most destabilizing factor in the Prin[beeep]te's existence. The next three lectures cover the early Imperial period, from the death of Augustus to the instability of the 3rd century. This is the era of such familiar Roman historical figures as Caligula, Claudius, Nero, and Hadrian. Finally, Professor Fagan shows how the problem of the succession combined with ominous developments among Rome's external enemies in the 2nd and 3rd centuries A.D. to generate a period of great crisis, indeed near-collapse, in the mid-3rd century A.D. Life in Classical Rome Leaving the Empire under pressure, Professor Fagan considers life in classical Roman civilization in nine lectures. He explores the broad shape of Roman society, slavery, the Roman family, the role of women in Roman society, urbanism, public leisure and mass entertainment, paganism, and the rise of Christianity. The End and a New Beginning To conclude the course, the final three lectures return to the Empire's last centuries. The Empire is restored to order and stability at the end of the 3rd century, but under an increasingly oppressive government. The institutionalization of Christianity to legitimize Imperial power and a more openly autocratic regime created, in many ways, a Roman Empire closer to medieval Europe than to the Empire of Augustus. As such, the later Empire is treated only in general terms here, since it warrants closer study by itself. The course ends with one of the great questions in history: Why did the Roman Empire fall? We see how, in the eyes of most modern scholars, the Empire did not fall at all but just changed into something very different, a less urbanized, more rural, early medieval world.

Free Download TTC - Great Battles of the Ancient World Last updated 10/2024 MP4 | Video: h264, 1280x720 | Audio: AAC, 44.1 KHz, 2 Ch Genre: eLearning | Language: English | Duration: 24 Lessons ( 12h 25m ) | Size: 10.4 GB Hollywood has gone to elaborate lengths to recreate the violence and mayhem of ancient warfare in movies such as Gladiator and Troy. But what were ancient battles really like? What weapons, tactics, armor, training, and logistics were used? And what were the crucial factors that could turn the tide of battle, giving one side victory and consigning the other to slaughter, capture, or, at best, escape to fight another day? A professor of classics and history at The Pennsylvania State University and the teacher of our immensely popular course, The History of Ancient Rome, Dr. Garrett G. Fagan has devoted extensive study to ancient warfare. In these 24 lectures he takes you into the thick of combat in some of the most notable battles fought in the Mediterranean region from prehistoric times to the 4th century A.D. Great Battles-Crucibles of History "Battles, for all their madness, are worthy of study if for no other reason than that they are the crucibles of history," says Professor Fagan, who notes that a few hours of hard fighting can determine the fates of entire empires. Among the many fateful battles you study are Marathon: This clash between Athenians and the invading Persian army in 490 B.C.E. demonstrated the fearsome effectiveness of Greek hoplite phalanxes against Persian arms. Later European history would have looked very different had the Greeks lost at Marathon. Gaugamela: In 331 B.C.E., Alexander the Great crushed a vastly superior Persian force in a classic hammer-and-anvil battle, in which his cavalry (the hammer) outflanked the enemy to drive it onto the spear-wielding phalanx (the anvil). When the dust had settled, King Darius III was in flight, and Achaemenid Persia, which had dominated Asia for three centuries, was at an end. Masada: The Romans showed their mastery of the difficult art of siege warfare by breaching the virtually impregnable Jewish fortress of Masada, which fell on April 16, A.D. 73. The defenders took their own lives rather than surrender, ending the last chapter of the Jewish Revolt against Rome. Famous Generals You also follow celebrated confrontations between commanders of ancient times, including Hannibal versus Scipio, the 3rd-century B.C.E. equivalent of Lee versus Grant during the American Civil War, or Rommel versus Montgomery during World War II. At the head of a Carthaginian army, Hannibal nearly broke the back of Roman power in Italy, inflicting the worst Roman defeat ever at the horrendous Battle of Cannae in 218 B.C.E. But he met his match in P. Cornelius Scipio, who lured him to Africa for a killing blow at the Battle of Zama. Scipio was known ever afterward as Scipio "Africanus." Other generals you study include Alexander the Great: Arguably the greatest general ever, Alexander was heir to the tactical innovations of his father, Philip II of Macedon, who, in turn, had learned new battle techniques from Epaminondas of Thebes. Alexander's stunning victories are marked by his maximally efficient use of military tools. Julius Caesar: A brilliant tactician and master chronicler of his own exploits, Caesar won battles against barbarian armies and Roman rivals alike. He was preparing to conquer the Parthian Empire when he was struck down in the Roman Forum on the Ides of March in 44 B.C.E. Xenophon: Elected general after the massacre of his commanding officers, this soldier of fortune led a beleaguered army of 10,000 Greek mercenaries on a daring retreat from deep within Persian territory. What You Will Learn This course focuses on warfare in the ancient Mediterranean world, encompassing the region from Mesopotamia to Western Europe, including Egypt and North Africa. The first eight lectures chart the development of warfare from prehistoric times to the glory days of the great states of the ancient Near East and Egypt. After examining theories about how to define war, you survey different models for the origins of warfare in the Upper Paleolithic (c. 37,000-12,000 years ago) and Neolithic (c. 10,000-5,000 years ago), testing them against the archaeological evidence, which provides our only clues to organized violence among prehistoric peoples. Then you move into the historical era, starting with the first battles for which we have written accounts. These took place between the city-states of early Sumer (c. 3000-2350 B.C.E.), when armies of infantry that used rudimentary chariots clashed over honor, irrigation rights, and boundaries. Next you travel to Egypt and survey the changing nature of warfare in the Old to New Kingdoms (c. 2700-1070 B.C.E.), including the first fully recorded battle in history: the Battle of Megiddo between Pharaoh Thutmose III and a coalition of Syrian lords, fought outside the walls of a town in Palestine. You examine the fearsome Assyrian war machine as it developed c. 900-612 B.C.E., and the sophisticated army that allowed the Assyrians to forge the largest empire yet seen in the region. You also address disputed matters of the Trojan War and Homeric warfare. In the next eight lectures you cover warfare among the Greeks and their distinctive form of combat using hoplites, a type of armored infantry that fought in close formation called the phalanx. You study the Persian invasions of Greece (490-479 B.C.E.), examining the battles of Marathon, Thermopylae, Salamis, and Plataea that decided this titanic clash. The disastrous Athenian expedition against Sicily (415-413 B.C.E.) during the Peloponnesian War is next, followed by the military revolution in the 4th century B.C.E., which saw the creation of a new and formidable fighting unit spearheaded by the cavalry and a reformed phalanx. This integrated and flexible army reached its pinnacle of efficiency under Alexander the Great, and you survey the battles at the Granicus River, Issus, and Gaugamela that made Alexander king of Persia. In the third part of the course you study the legions of Rome, which evolved brutally effective tactics that gave them dominion over the entire Mediterranean basin. It is unclear how Roman legionary armies actually fought, and you explore various theories before following the legions into combat in their colossal struggles with Hannibal in the Second Punic War (218-202 B.C.E.). Then you compare the Roman legion and Macedonian phalanx-the two most efficient killing machines of the day-in duels fought in Italy in the 3rd century B.C.E. and in the Balkans and Asia Minor in the 2nd century. Next you consider Roman skill in siege warfare as exemplified by Julius Caesar's siege of Alesia (52 B.C.E.) and the siege of Masada in Judea in A.D. 72-73. The final two battles covered are Roman defeats and introduce the German tribal warrior. These are the battles of the Teutoburg Forest in A.D. 9, considered one of the most important battles in European history, and Adrianople in A.D. 378, which heralded the decline of Roman imperial power. In the final lecture, Professor Fagan considers the recent proposal by scholar Victor Davis Hanson that there is a distinctively "Western way of war" traceable from the Greeks to the modern age. This intriguing view represents hoplite warfare as a unique development of Greek conditions that casts its shadow down to the present. Despite the theory's attractive simplicity, it has problems that Dr. Fagan details in a fascinating glimpse of scholarly debate in action. Clash of Theories The battles you study were fought so long ago, and accounts of them are so incomplete, that what happened involves considerable controversy. Professor Fagan presents contending theories and often his own hypotheses about how events unfolded during these bloody encounters. For example The standard view of battle mechanics adopted by opposing armies of Greek hoplites is that they advanced shoulder-to-shoulder in close-ordered formation and crashed into each other head-on. Then they sought, quite literally, to shove their opponents off the field, all the while stabbing with their spears. The minority view is that hoplite battle was more open, with hoplites standing up to six feet apart and fighting individually rather than as a mass. Dr. Fagan demonstrates how this minority view "is a lot more plausible and is supported by the ancient evidence better than the strange business of ritualized shoving." Similarly, it is far from clear how Roman legionaries fought their battles. The prin[beeep]l ancient source, the historian Livy, is so confused on the point that it is obvious he never witnessed a legion in action. After considering various schools of thought, Professor Fagan draws on clues from different battle narratives to conclude that flexibility lay at the heart of the Roman system, so that no one "battle deployment" fit all. On the issue of whether the Greek hoplites at Marathon charged the Persians across the one-mile gap separating the armies, as described by the ancient historian Herodotus, Professor Fagan notes that experiments carried out at The Pennsylvania State University with physical education majors suggest that Herodotus was wrong. Wearing weighted jackets and carrying mock nine-pound shields, only one of the Penn State athletes could run the mile-long course, and he was utterly exhausted-certainly not in a position to fight 24,000 Persians! War's Grim Reality Dr. Fagan ends by reminding us of the grim reality of war: Throughout history many millions have died on battlefields. "We owe it to them," he concludes, "and to the thousands who continue to perish in our planet's wars, to understand as fully as possible what it was that killed them. If this course has advanced its audience's comprehension of war even a little, then it has amply fulfilled its purpose."

Free Download TTC - Geometry An Interactive Journey to Mastery Last updated 10/2024 MP4 | Video: h264, 1280x720 | Audio: AAC, 44.1 KHz, 2 Ch Genre: eLearning | Language: English | Duration: 36 Lessons ( 18h 18m ) | Size: 15.3 GB Inscribed over the entrance of Plato's Academy were the words, "Let no one ignorant of geometry enter my doors." To ancient scholars, geometry was the gateway to gaining a profound knowledge of the world.$1#$ Today, geometry's core skills of logic and reasoning are essential to success in school, work, and many other aspects of life. Like other math fields, geometry teaches us how to think. It leads students to uncover new truths based on already established ideas and facts. It requires us to test and examine the conclusions of others. It teaches us to lay out our thinking clearly, describing each step so that others can follow along and verify our results. This systematic way of thinking is essential in many fields. Drawing conclusions from experimental data is the basis of scientific discovery. Our justice system depends on compelling evidence to render a verdict in a court of law. And we use logical reasoning in everyday conversations to win friends over to our point of view. In fact, the great Greek scholar Euclid demonstrated just how much you can do with logic. He worked out that basically all of geometry stands on just 10 core principles. You can build the rest using straightforward, logical reasoning. In short, geometry is among the great intellectual feats of humankind. However, geometry goes far beyond being just an intellectual exercise. Its real-world applications extend to navigation, architecture, engineering, physics, technology, and even art. Botanists use the geometry of triangles to estimate the heights of trees. Astronomers use an understanding of ellipses to describe the orbits of planets. Quantum physicists use the mathematics of rotation to explain aspects of subatomic physics. Architects use principles of symmetry to develop aesthetically pleasing buildings. Engineers use the properties of parabolas to design headlights and satellite dishes. With its powerful blend of intellectual accomplishment and practical application, it's no wonder that most schools consider geometry a core subject. Yet as award-winning Professor James Tanton of The Mathematical Association of America shows in Geometry: An Interactive Journey to Mastery, geometry can be an exciting adventure at any age. Those who will benefit from his 36 clear and accessible lectures include high school students currently enrolled in a geometry class; their parents, who seek an outstanding private tutor for their students; home-schooled students and others wishing to study high school geometry on their own; collegestudents who are struggling with math requirements and who need to strengthen their grasp of this fundamental subject; and anyone curious about the intellectual challenge of logic and reasoning that underlies mathematics, the sciences, and our technological world. Professor Tanton's excellent teaching style makes the course ideal for those students who have ever believed they're "not good at math" or have had challenges understanding geometry in the past. A Different Way to Learn Geometry Even students who have done well in other math courses such as algebra can sometimes find geometry a challenge. More so than algebra and other equation-based math, geometry places particularly strong focus on making logical inferences from facts and building a story of reasoning. Plus, geometry involves a more visual approach-working with shapes and patterns from the real world. Many geometry courses begin by teaching the results of geometric thinking-by listing a set of beginning rules first. But how can one build the foundations of a house without first having a sense of what the house should be? Professor Tanton encourages students to start by playing with ideas of the mind (and acts of the hand!) to develop a feel for geometric rules and a context for those rules. In Geometry: An Interactive Journey to Mastery, Professor Tanton guides students as they build an understanding of geometry from the ground up. With this approach, the instruction focuses on the intellectual play of the subject and its beauty as much as its utility and function. Students begin with elementary building blocks like points, lines, and angles and observe how those basic units interact. From a clear understanding of the fundamental principles, students use logical reasoning to expand their understanding of geometry. Like building a house brick by brick, each new discovery stands upon the others-without any sudden or confusing jumps. In the first part of the course, students develop an intuitive context for thinking about terms like point, line, angle, plane, and flat; grasp how to create logical proofs; and uncover the three deep and fundamental assumptions of geometry-the Pythagorean theorem, the parallelism postulate, and the similarity principles. In the second part, students study common geometric shapes and their properties (such as triangles, polygons, and circles); explore the intersection of geometry and algebra; examine the basics of trigonometry; and learn how to calculate areas. Once students understand the core principles, they are set loose to play in the third part of the course. Students ponder a range of fascinating and sometimes counterintuitive applications for geometry. They combine two seemingly disparate fields: geometry and probability; dive into the wild world of fractals; investigate conics and their many practical applications; use complex numbers to solve tricky geometry problems; and contemplate spherical and even "taxi-cab" geometry. Delightful Real-World Examples A beauty of geometry is its wide variety of fascinating and unexpected applications. Some of the examples students explore in this course include these Width of a river: You're on a walk and come across a river. Can you estimate how wide it is? See how you can-with no more than a bit of geometry and a baseball cap. Geometry and nature: From the orbits of planets to the shape of your small intestine, geometric shapes appear in some surprising places throughout nature. See how geometry helps us better understand the marvels and mysteries of the world around us. Modern cell phones: Swiping the screen on a cell phone seems to be an ordinary activity. But did you know your phone is actually relying on some clever geometry? Find out exactly what your phone is doing and the mathematics behind it. Works of art: When people think of applications for mathematics, they often mention the fields of science or engineering. But geometry also has its place in the visual arts. See how great artists like M.C. Escher used geometric shapes and principles to create masterpieces. A game of pool: If you're playing pool and want to play a trick shot against the side edge, how do you need to hit the ball? See how you can determine this and more using the reflection principle. A Teacher of Teachers Professor Tanton is committed to sharing the delight and beauty of geometry and works with teachers across North America to develop more effective teaching methods for geometry and other math courses. He is not only a teacher of math, but a teacher of the best ways to teach math. His experience has taught him where students most frequently flounder, which has given him the skills to explain mathematical concepts in a way that removes mental roadblocks to success. Making each example come to life, Geometry: An Interactive Journey to Mastery engages students in a visual adventure. Professor Tanton uses bright and colorful slides, easy-to-understand whiteboard drawings, and interactive demonstrations to make his explanations crystal clear. And to help students better understand geometric principles, a workbook complete with sample problems and solutions accompanies the course. Equipped with a firm understanding of geometry, students walk away from the course with the tools and knowledge to continue on to greater challenges in mathematics, school, and life. Your journey into this world of joy and wonder has only begun.

Free Download TTC - Communism in Decline From Sputnik to Gorbachev Released 9/2024 MP4 | Video: h264, 1280x720 | Audio: AAC, 44.1 KHz, 2 Ch Genre: eLearning | Language: English | Duration: 12 Lessons ( 6h 42m ) | Size: 5.61 GB Communism was more than a new philosophy to Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels when they wrote the Communist Manifesto in 1848. They saw it as a brand-new way of life, a new civilization for the modern man and woman. The communist way of life was to represent a total liberation from all of history, which they saw as nothing more than struggle, exploitation, and suffering. Instead of building upon the past, they proposed that communism would focus only on the future, promising total social equality for all and sharing in a new stage of human societal evolution. When measured against other social theories throughout world history, communism is more than just another a philosophical thought experiment. The beliefs and practices of communism were institutionalized in Lenin's Bolshevik state, as experienced within the experimental and unprecedented development of the Soviet Union. For 74 years, the experiment held together. Communist regimes, at their peak, ruled more than one-third of the world's population. What happened? What really caused this giant experiment to decline and fall apart? In Communism in Decline: From Sputnik to Gorbachev, Professor Vejas Gabriel Liulevicius reveals the internal and external forces that ripped apart the grand communist experiment. What were the mistakes made by the Soviet leaders who believed too deeply in their own propaganda? And why were they not able to see the many ironies in their own poor decisions? In 12 fascinating lectures, you will learn how the Soviet Union went from winning the space race against the United States in 1957 to Gorbachev's resignation and the dissolution of the great experiment in 1991. The Men at the Top Eight men led the Soviet Union from its founding in 1922 to its collapse in 1991. Each of them believed that communism was the only way forward to achieve a bright and successful future for modern society. Theoretically, at least, they believed that political power should belong to the workers and peasants; but if that was the ideal aspiration, no one came close to achieving it. As the leader of the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution, Vladimir Lenin became the guiding personality of the Soviet Union after founding the Russian Communist Party, then signing treaties with nearby countries and regions. After serving only two years as the head of the Soviet Russian government before his death in 1924, he was succeeded by Josef Stalin. In power from 1924 until his death in 1953, Stalin's murderous dictatorship caused the death of millions in the Soviet Union. Stalin is also known for becoming an ally of the United States in the effort to defeat Germany during World War II. In the years after Stalin's death, there were several notable Soviet leaders who followed Stalin. What did these men bring to their leadership roles and how did their decisions shape the Soviet Union and the world? In this course, you will learn about Nikita Khrushchev. Khrushchev ruled the Soviet Union during the complex times of the Bay of Pigs invasion and the Cuban Missile Crisis and when his country was arguably at its zenith-when Sputnik won the space race for the Soviet Union in 1957. Leonid Brezhnev. Brezhnev saw himself as the leader of the worldwide fight against capitalism. That mission resulted in the USSR coming to the aid of any socialist or communist government that seemed to be on the verge of failing. This "Brezhnev Doctrine" led him to the 1968 invasion of Czechoslovakia's Prague Spring and the invasion of Afghanistan in 1979. Mikhail Gorbachev. Explore the "Gorbachev Phenomenon" and "Gorbymania." Although not so popular at home, this Soviet leader was beloved internationally. He knew the Soviet Union needed to move forward economically, and he "thawed" the Cold War as one way to achieve that goal. In 1991, Gorbachev oversaw the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Promises vs. Reality The communist doctrine promised a great deal that its leaders never delivered. No one knows what would have happened if the Soviet Union had followed Lenin's doctrine, and if the longest-serving Soviet leader had not strangled his country as a murderous dictator. By the time Gorbachev decided the Soviet Union could improve its standard of living by coexisting with capitalist countries and getting back to the best of Lenin's philosophies, it was too late. Too many systemic problems existed for Gorbachev to overcome, including Commodities Shortages. When people had to stand in line for hours to purchase the basic necessities for their families-if anything was on the shelves by the time they got to the front of the queue-it was clear their government was not providing for "each according to his needs" as Marx had proposed. What "They" Have. With the standard of living in the West being so much higher than that of the Soviet Union, it was difficult for citizens to believe that capitalism should be their mortal enemy. The National Problem. The Soviet Union attempted to blend people of numerous ethnicities into one state. Leadership promised that each ethnicity would share in the power while preserving their own cultural attributes. Instead, as economic shortages worsened, each group felt they were taken advantage of by the others. Dissent After the death of Stalin, the most violently repressive of all Soviet leaders, some voices of dissent could be heard arguing for freedom of speech and greater respect for human rights. Although Khrushchev initially allowed some dissent to distinguish his rule from Stalin's, he eventually cracked down on free speech, afraid it would undermine his power. In Communism in Decline: From Sputnik to Gorbachev, you will learn about the well-known major demonstrations such as Solidarity in the shipyards of Gdansk, Poland and demonstrations in Beijing's Tiananmen Square. Additionally, you will learn about more subtle forms of dissent, including Laughter. Repressed people fight back however they can, and in the Soviet Union telling jokes became a widespread form of dissent. In this course, you'll hear many of the political jokes that became a form of social protest-criticizing the system, its ideology, and the resulting daily indignities. Books. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn is one of the most well-known writers who used literature to reveal the truth about the Soviet prison camps and life in the country, in general. His most famous work, The Gulag Archipelago, was smuggled out to the West and published there in 1973. Samizdat. When an uncensored, non-Soviet-approved text could be found, people took it upon themselves to copy its pages one at a time, via typewriter or by hand, and then pass the pages around. Whoever received these samizdat ("self-published") products would have only one night to read them before passing them on to the next person. While communism failed in the Soviet Union in the long term, it had lasted for 74 years and remains the official ideological system today in China, North Korea, Laos, Vietnam, and Cuba. Only time will tell whether communism as practiced specifically in those countries will be able to overcome the problems that took down the Soviet Union. What Will You Learn?

Free Download TTC - Music Theory - The Foundation of Great Music Last updated 9/2024 MP4 | Video: h264, 1280x720 | Audio: AAC, 44.1 KHz, 2 Ch Genre: eLearning | Language: English | Duration: 18 Lessons ( 7h 32m ) | Size: 6.23 GB Music has a phenomenal power to move, transport, and delight us. Across numerous styles and forms-from the iconic masterpieces of the classical tradition to genres such as jazz, rock, pop, and folk-great music expresses the inexpressible, speaks across time and cultures, and galvanizes audiences across the world. And the more we understand about music, the more we appreciate it, and a knowledge of music theory is the best place to start. Music may be the most abstract of the arts, as its sonic language is a spectrum of tones, but it has a highly organized structure, a structure that allows for both its form and its meaning. In fact, the great expressive capacity of music and its ability to captivate us and to deeply communicate is rooted in its organized structure and how that structure is used creatively by composers, as well as by performers. A clear knowledge of the theory of music-the "how" of music-offers you insight into How a musical narrative is created and how music communicates; How music uses time and moves through time; How the tension, release, and resolution of musical harmony play an essential role in the expressive power of music; The diversity of musical styles, and what makes musical styles and genres what they are, be it classical, jazz, bluegrass, or rock & roll; How rhythmic structure influences the effect the music has on us; How different expressive effects are created, both by composers and players; How music is conceived by those who write and play it; and more. In Music Theory: The Foundation of Great Music, you'll delve into the inner workings of Western tonal music through 18 enjoyable and revealing lessons taught by Professor Sean Atkinson of Texas Christian University. Professor Atkinson, an eminent music theorist and teacher, makes music theory refreshingly clear and accessible, demystifying the skill of reading music as well as the principles of musical analysis. Using a highly interactive approach, he orients the lessons to an understanding of how music creates its remarkable effects, both formally and expressively, and how this understanding benefits us as listeners and players. At the heart of these lessons lies the ability to read music as a tool for understanding what you hear and for deepening your enjoyment in listening, as well as for playing music. As you learn, step by step, to read and understand the written score, you'll see the structure of the music and how the music unfolds on the page. You'll also see how musical tones are written down in the form of notes, with each note having a rhythmic value, showing how long the note lasts in time. And you'll study how rhythm and meter work in music, how the key element of musical harmony functions, how a musical score is performed, and much more. With highly valuable insights for both listeners and instrumentalists, these 18 engaging lessons will teach you to become literate in the language of music. Discover the Inner Structure of Musical Expression As you develop your skills in reading and understanding the score, you'll explore the essential elements of musical form, structure, and composition, such as Tonality-Grasp how most Western music is based in tonality-the organization of musical tones into recognizable patterns; learn how musical scales, 7-note sequences, form the sonic grounding or tonality of works of music, how major and minor scales are often associated with different states of mind, and how musical scales are related to one another; Rhythm and Meter-Learn how rhythm forms a central structure or backbone for a piece of music, and build skill in reading and performing musical rhythms; also, study meter, the organization of musical pulses or beats within the music and on the page, and explore the systems of simple and compound meter; Counterpoint-One of the core features of Western classical music, uncover the parameters of counterpoint, the writing of two melodic lines which are played at the same time; see how the melodic lines move in very specific ways, forming a coherent sequence that makes melodic and harmonic sense, and creating the basis for musical narrative; Harmony-Study the laws of harmony, the foundation of tonal music, where two or more notes are played together; learn how chords, groups of three or more notes that sound at the same time, form sequences or progressions, creating tonal tension or instability that leads finally to resolution or stability-an integral element of the expressive power of music; Musical Narrative: Phrase Structure-Witness how a piece of music unfolds by means of musical units called phrases, which have a beginning and an end; then see how phrases are encompassed within larger units called periods and sentences, allowing the music to create a sense of a narrative or "story" in sound; and Playing the Score: Elements of Expression-Explore the markings within a score that indicate how the music should be performed; take account of dynamics, the volume or loudness of a given sequence, articulation, the way an individual note should be performed, and tempo, the speed of the music, and how these indications are realized by performers. Enjoy Literacy in the Language of Music Throughout the course, Professor Atkinson's spirited and approachable teaching style makes for a thoroughly compelling and fun excursion into music theory and its applications. He illustrates the elements of musical form and structure with recorded examples from great works by Bach, Mozart, Haydn, and Robert and Clara Schumann, as well as excerpts from jazz, rock, and other musical genres, showing how the principles of tonal music apply within different musical forms. Extensive onscreen graphics clearly illustrate the musical elements under discussion, making the material easy to follow and directly graspable. A special course workbook provides many additional resources for study and practice. A particularly special feature of this course is a live session with a working jazz pianist, who plays several jazz classics, interpreting the songs using only chords and a melody line. Here you witness musical improvisation in action, and its relevance to understanding musical form and expression. Music Theory: The Foundation of Great Music offers you an adventure in listening, a richly insightful inquiry that will deepen your appreciation and enjoyment of one of our world's most sublime art forms.

Free Download TTC - Writing Great Fiction Storytelling Tips and Techniques Last updated 9/2024 MP4 | Video: h264, 1280x720 | Audio: AAC, 44.1 KHz, 2 Ch Genre: eLearning | Language: English | Duration: 24 Lessons ( 12h 18m ) | Size: 10.3 GB Whether you're huddled around the campfire, composing an email to a friend, or sitting down to write a novel, storytelling is fundamental to human nature. But as any writer can tell you, the blank page can be daunting. It's tough to know where to get started, what details to include in each scene, and how to move from the kernel of an idea to a completed manuscript. Writing great fiction isn't a gift reserved for the talented few. There is a craft to storytelling that can be learned, and studying the fiction writer's techniques can be incredibly rewarding-both personally and professionally. Even if you don't have ambitions of penning the next Moby-Dick, you'll find value in exploring all the elements of great fiction. From evoking a scene to charting a plot to selecting a point of view, Writing Great Fiction: Storytelling Tips and Techniques offers a master class in storytelling. Taught by acclaimed novelist James Hynes, a former visiting professor at the famed Iowa Writers' Workshop and the University of Michigan, these 24 insightful lectures show you the ins and outs of the fiction writer's craft. More than just delivering lectures, Professor Hynes offers the first steps of an apprenticeship, showing you not only how fiction works but also how to read like a writer. Here you'll find explications of novels and stories across the ages Rediscover classics such as Jane Eyre, Bleak House, Middlemarch, Mrs. Dalloway, and others. Gain new insights into bestsellers such as the Harry Potter and Game of Thrones series. Explore the world of literary fiction, from Chekhov's "The Kiss" to Marilynne Robinson's Housekeeping. Reflect on what makes characters such as Anna Karenina and Sherlock Holmes so memorable. Find out how to create suspense like Dashiell Hammett, George Pelecanos, and John le Carré. In addition to showing you how the elements of fiction work, this course is an interactive toolkit. Professor Hynes closes each lecture with an exercise to get your creative juices flowing. Only you know what story you want to tell, but the many examples and writing prompts in these lectures will get you from thinking about writing to the act of writing-often the toughest part of any project. Begin with the Basics William Faulkner once said that writing a novel is like a one-armed man trying to hammer together a chicken coop in a hurricane. That may be an exaggeration, but finding your way into a story can take an equal amount of creative experimentation. In the opening lectures of this course, you will learn how to Evoke a Scene: There is a fine art to selecting just the right imagery to bring a scene to life. Whether you're heeding the old advice to "show, don't tell," or you're seeking to create what novelist John Gardner called a "vivid and continuous dream," scenic detail is the life-blood of good fiction. Professor Hynes shows you how to choose rich details while keeping your narrative uncluttered. Develop a Character: When you create a fictional character, you're creating the illusion of reality-suggesting a real person rather than replicating one. Four lectures on character development teach you how to build characters who think and act in plausible ways. See how novelists such as Joseph Conrad, Virginia Woolf, George R.R. Martin, and many others develop their believable and memorable characters. Craft Great Dialogue: Just as characters are illusions that suggest real people, so too does dialogue suggest authentic speech. Good dialogue serves at least one of a few key functions in a narrative, such as evoking character, advancing the plot, or providing necessary exposition. A two-lecture unit sheds light on balancing dialogue with narration, with examples from the work of Charles Dickens, Alice Munro, and Toni Morrison, as well as the professor's own fiction. Build the Story's Structure Literature creates order out of chaos. To do so, you need to provide structure to your story, which can be one of the most challenging aspects of writing fiction. Among the topics you'll study are Story versus Plot: Whether it's a novel, a short story, or a blog post, one of a story's primary functions is to keep the reader reading. One way to achieve this is by creating a compelling plot. After exploring the difference between "story" and "plot"-as defined by E.M. Forster-Professor Hynes unpacks the many techniques of storytelling, and he concludes this six-lecture unit with some thoughts about keeping momentum in relatively "plotless" fiction such as James Joyce's "The Dead." Point of View: As you'll see in this three-lecture unit, much of a story hinges on the perspective from which it's told. From the omniscience of Middlemarch to the free indirect discourse of Light in August, and from the double consciousness of Huck Finn to the unreliable narrator of The Aspern Papers, Professor Hynes surveys the range of narrative possibilities. Time, Place, and Pace: A story's setting is a powerful way to create mood. Think of London in Bleak House, or Middle Earth in the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Time plays an equally important role in fiction-the era of a story's setting, the sequence of events that occur, and the timing with which information is revealed to the reader are all pivotal elements. You'll learn how to syncopate action and exposition, scene and summary, short scenes and long scenes, present-time narrative versus flashbacks, and more. Drafts and Revisions: All stories must come to an end. In this course's final unit, you'll step back from the specific elements of scenic composition and consider the story as a whole. How do you build a complete draft? What are some strategies for revision? And what do you do when you've finished? A Practical Toolkit to Get You Writing As a working novelist, Professor Hynes is able to imbue his teaching of the elements of fiction with the wisdom of personal experience. He uses vivid examples from the history of literature as well as lessons and anecdotes from his own time in the novel-writing trenches. He shares his personal processes and techniques, and even examines specific examples where he struggled as a writer, revealing how he overcame those difficulties. But this course is meant to be a toolkit, not an instruction manual. The beauty of fiction writing is that it's a creative field. There are no right answers, no single way to tell a story. A wealth of exercises will get you writing so that you can practice the many techniques you learn. Along the way, Professor Hynes is an able guide, showing you what has worked for him and other novelists, and pointing out pitfalls to avoid. Writing Great Fiction: Storytelling Tips and Techniques is truly an exceptional course for anyone interested in storytelling. What Will You Learn? Learn how to create and develop meaningful fictional characters - both major and minor. Explore the dynamics of good dialogue, and learn how to integrate it into a narrative. Distinguish between points of view to determine which one will work best for your story. Investigate the pros and cons of writing drafts - and the importance of revisions. Get a realistic, business-oriented view of how to make a living as a fiction writer.

Free Download TTC - Mathematics Describing the Real World Precalculus and Trigonometry Last updated 9/2024 MP4 | Video: h264, 1280x720 | Audio: AAC, 44.1 KHz, 2 Ch Genre: eLearning | Language: English | Duration: 36 Lessons ( 18h 42m ) | Size: 15.7 GB What's the sure road to success in calculus? The answer is simple: Precalculus. Traditionally studied after Algebra II, this mathematical field covers advanced algebra, trigonometry, exponents, logarithms, and much more What's the sure road to success in calculus? The answer is simple: Precalculus. Traditionally studied after Algebra II, this mathematical field covers advanced algebra, trigonometry, exponents, logarithms, and much more. These interrelated topics are essential for solving calculus problems, and by themselves are powerful methods for describing the real world, permeating all areas of science and every branch of mathematics. Little wonder, then, that precalculus is a core course in high schools throughout the country and an important review subject in college. Unfortunately, many students struggle in precalculus because they fail to see the links between different topics-between one approach to finding an answer and a startlingly different, often miraculously simpler, technique. As a result, they lose out on the enjoyment and fascination of mastering an amazingly useful tool box of problem-solving strategies. And even if you're not planning to take calculus, understanding the fundamentals of precalculus can give you a versatile set of skills that can be applied to a wide range of fields-from computer science and engineering to business and health care. Mathematics Describing the Real World: Precalculus and Trigonometry is your unrivaled introduction to this crucial subject, taught by award-winning Professor Bruce Edwards of the University of Florida. Professor Edwards is coauthor of one of the most widely used textbooks on precalculus and an expert in getting students over the trouble spots of this challenging phase of their mathematics education. "Calculus is difficult because of the precalculus skills needed for success," Professor Edwards points out, adding, "In my many years of teaching, I have found that success in calculus is assured if students have a strong background in precalculus." A Math Milestone Made Clear In 36 intensively illustrated half-hour lectures, supplemented by a workbook with additional explanations and problems, Mathematics Describing the Real World takes you through all the major topics of a typical precalculus course taught in high school or college. Those who will especially benefit from Professor Edwards's lucid and engaging approach include high school and college students currently enrolled in precalculus who feel overwhelmed and want coaching from an inspiring teacher who knows where students stumble; parents of students, who may feel out of their depth with the advanced concepts taught in precalculus; those who have finished Algebra II and are eager to get a head start on the next milestone on the road to calculus; beginning calculus students who want to review and hone their skills in crucial precalculus topics; anyone motivated to learn precalculus on his or her own, whether as a home-schooled pupil or as an adult preparing for a new career. The Powerful Tools of Precalculus With precalculus, you start to see all of mathematics as a unified whole-as a group of often radically different techniques for representing data, analyzing problems, and finding solutions. And you discover that these techniques are ultimately connected in a beautiful way. Perceiving these connections helps you choose the best tool for a given problem Algebraic functions: Including polynomial functions and rational functions, these equations relate the input value of a variable to a single output value, corresponding to countless everyday situations in which one event depends on another. Trigonometry: Originally dealing with the measurement of triangles, this subject has been vastly enriched by the concept of the trigonometric function, which models many types of cyclical processes, such as waves, orbits, and vibrations. Exponential and logarithmic functions: Often involving the natural base, e, these functions are built on terms with exponents and their inverse, logarithms, and describe phenomena such as population growth and the magnitude of an earthquake on the Richter scale. Complex numbers: Seemingly logic-defying, complex numbers are based on the square root of -1, designated by the symbol i. They are essential for solving many technical problems and are the basis for the beautiful patterns in fractal geometry. Vectors: Quantities like velocity have both magnitude and direction. Vectors allow the direction component to be specified in a form that allows addition, multiplication, and other operations that are crucial in fields such as physics. Matrices: A matrix is a rectangular array of numbers with special rules that permit two matrices to be added or multiplied. Practically any situation where data are collected in columns and rows can be treated mathematically as a matrix. In addition, Professor Edwards devotes two lectures to conic sections, slicing a cone mathematically into circles, parabolas, ellipses, and hyperbolas. You also learn when it's useful to switch from Cartesian to polar coordinates; how infinite sequences and series lead to the concept of the limit in calculus; and two approaches to counting questions: permutations and combinations. You close with an introduction to probability and a final lecture that features an actual calculus problem, which your experience in precalculus makes ... elementary! Real-World Mathematics Believing that students learn mathematics most effectively when they see it in the context of the world around them, Professor Edwards uses scores of interesting problems that are fun, engaging, and often relevant to real life. Among the many applications of precalculus that you'll encounter are these Public health: A student with a new strain of flu arrives at college. How long before every susceptible person is infected? An exponential function called the logistic growth model shows how quickly an epidemic spreads. Surveying: Suppose you have to measure the diagonal width of a marsh without getting wet. It's a simple matter of walking two sides of a triangle on dry land and then using trigonometry to determine the length of the third side that spans the marsh. Astronomy: One of the most famous cases involving the sine and cosine functions that model periodic phenomena occurred in 1967, when astronomer Jocelyn Bell detected a radio signal from space at 1.3373-second intervals. It proved to be the first pulsar ever observed. Acoustics: The special properties of an ellipse explain why a person standing at a given spot in the U.S. Capitol's Statuary Hall can hear a whisper from someone standing 85 feet away. Computer graphics: How do you make an object appear to rotate on a computer screen? Matrix algebra allows you to move each pixel in an image by a specified angle by multiplying two matrices together. Probability: Have you ever forgotten your four-digit ATM PIN number? What is the probability that you can guess it? A simple calculation shows that you would have to punch numbers nonstop for many hours before being assured of success. An Adventure in Mathematical Learning A three-time Teacher of the Year in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at the University of Florida, Professor Edwards has a time-tested approach to making difficult material accessible. In Mathematics Describing the Real World, he enlivens his lectures with study tips and a feature he calls "You Be the Teacher," in which he puts you in the professor's shoes by asking how you would design a particular test problem or answer one of the frequently asked questions he gets in the classroom. For example, are all exponential functions increasing? After you hear Professor Edwards's explanation, you'll know that when someone uses the term "exponentially," you should ask, "Do you mean exponential growth or decay?"-for it can go in either direction. He also gives valuable tips on using graphing calculators, pointing out their amazing capabilities-and pitfalls. What Will You Learn?

Polk One of the most complicated and advanced computers on Earth can't be purchased in any store. This astonishing device, responsible for storing and retrieving vast quantities of information that can be accessed at a moment's notice, is the human brain. How does such a dynamic and powerful machine make memories, learn a language, and remember how to drive a car? What habits can we adopt in order to learn more effectively throughout our lives? And how do external factors like traumatic injuries and mood affect our gray matter? The answers to these questions are merely the tip of the iceberg in The Learning Brain. These 24 half-hour lectures offer in-depth and surprising lessons about how the brain learns and how we can optimize that learning. Begin your journey by focusing on which parts of the brain are responsible for different kinds of memory, from personal experiences and memorized facts to short-term memory, and how these systems work on a psychological and biological level. Then, discover how to better absorb and retain all kinds of memories in all stages of life. This course is chock-full of valuable information, whether you're learning a new language at 60 or discovering calculus at 16. If you need better study habits, struggle with learning a new skill, or just worry about memories fading with age, The Learning Brain will provide illuminating insights. Take this journey with Thad Polk, professor of psychology at the University of Michigan, whose well-organized curriculum and relaxed teaching style ease you into intricate aspects of learning science, including the underlying cognitive and neural mechanisms involved. Professor Polk's credentials in psychology and over 20 years' experience in education shine through every lecture of The Learning Brain as he firmly supports this rigorous exploration with scientific studies conducted over the last several decades of neuroscientific research.

Fagan Even today, the influence of Ancient Rome is indelible, with Europe and the world owing this extraordinary empire a huge cultural debt in almost every important category of human endeavor, including art, architecture, engineering, language, literature, law, and religion. At the peak of its power, Rome's span was vast. In the regional, restless, and shifting history of continental Europe, the Roman Empire stands as a towering monument to scale and stability, unified in politics and law, stretching from the sands of Syria to the moors of Scotland. And it stood for almost 700 years. In this series of 48 spirited lectures, you'll see how a small village of shepherds and farmers rose to tower over the civilized world of its day and left a permanent mark on history. In telling Rome's riveting story, Professor Fagan draws on a wealth of primary and secondary sources, including recent historical and archaeological scholarship, to introduce the fascinating tale of Rome's rise and decline, including the famous events and personalities that have become so familiar: Horatius at the bridgeHannibal crossing the Alps during Rome's life-or-death war with CarthageCaesar being assassinated before a statue of his archrival PompeyThe doomed lovers Antony and CleopatraThe mad and venal emperors Nero and CaligulaThe conversion of Constantine. The course also addresses one of history's greatest questions: Why did the Roman Empire fall? And you'll learn why most modern scholars believe that the empire did not "fall" at all, but, rather, changed into something very different - the less urbanized, more rural, early medieval world.

And what does it mean, for us in the West and for humanity's future? Speaking to these vital and fascinating questions, these 48 penetrating lectures by Professor Baum bring to vivid life the human struggles, the titanic political upheavals, and the spectacular speed of China's modern rebirth. Offering multilevel insight into one of the most astounding real-life dramas of modern history, the lectures weave together the richly diverse developments and sociopolitical currents that created the China you now read about in the headlines. You'll get a detailed understanding of all the core events in China's century of stunning change, including the collapse of the Qing dynasty, the Republican era and civil wars, the "Great Leap Forward", the Cultural Revolution, and the post-Mao economic "miracle". Throughout, Professor Baum reveals highly unusual details that enrich the cinematic sweep of the story. For example, you'll learn about the Christian warlord who baptized his troops with a fire hose, the strange kidnapping of Chiang K'ai-shek, and Professor Baum's own smuggling of top-secret documents out of Taiwan. A core strength of these lectures is that they make sense of the dramatic events of the story by getting deeply at what underlay them, culturally, socially, and historically - leaving you with a nuanced knowledge of the forces moving China's modern emergence. Bringing alive the passionate reinvention of China with deep discernment and humanity, they portray the confounding, majestic, heart-rending, and visionary story of a modern giant.

But in stories, myths, and fables, dreams are vital. They're often used as a literary device to provide insights and foreshadowing. Through the dreams in stories, we get to the heart of deep philosophical, scientific, and religious problems. Dreams allowed writers to transcend boundaries and confront things otherwise off-limits. In this eye-opening six-part series, Dr. Franziska Kohlt looks at the concept of dreams through the lens of the stories that feature them. You'll visit the enchanted slumbering land of Sleeping Beauty and the dark and mysterious realm of The Sandman. You'll explore the ironic dreaming devices of Slaughterhouse-Five; the trippy, fantastical world of Alice in Wonderland; and many more on the quest to deconstruct the symbolism and intent of the dreams that are part of the narrative-or even, in some cases, that are characters in the narrative. Join Dr. Kohlt in exploring your favorite books, stories, comics, and myths, and gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of them by shining on a light on the parts of the tale that happen in the dark.

Bellenoit No era is more pertinent to understanding how present-day India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh evolved than the nearly 200 years of British rule. This colonial period was a time of deep change and transformation - for India and for the world. These 24 engrossing lectures offer you new perspectives on the history of European imperialism, on world economic history, on the features of British colonialism, and on the rich cultures of the Indian subcontinent. Over the course of this remarkable saga you'll explore: How the English East India Company, a commercial trading entity, established a presence in India and took the reins of power in one of the strangest political transformations in world historyHow the monumental Mughal Empire, builders of the Taj Mahal and longstanding Muslim rulers in India, gradually came apart in the face of British conquestHow Britain extended its rule across the subcontinent, built a huge economic machine in India, and ultimately exacted a heavy price from the Indian peopleHow India finally achieved independence in 1947, through one of humanity's most noteworthy examples of resourceful and philosophically sophisticated leadership You'll trace the economic motives that brought the British and other Westerners to India, like how the emergence of the English as a stereotypically tea-drinking society was directly related to the Indian colonial economy. You will also take stock of the incredibly lavish lifestyles of India's maharajahs and how the British leveraged alliances with them. And you'll grasp the fundamental moral contradiction of the Raj, the conflict between Britain's economic interests and the human needs of the empire's Indian subjects, and more. In A History of British India, you'll relive a crucial era in international relations, one with deep and lasting implications for our contemporary world.

Bartlett In almost every way that matters, historical Europe was the laboratory in which the world you now live in was conceived and tested. And you'll be living with the consequences for the rest of your life. These 48 lectures lead you through the doors of that laboratory and guide you through the development of Europe from the late Middle Ages through the eve of World War II. As you follow Professor Bartlett through the dramatic story of European history, you'll learn about the major ideologies and "isms" that bubbled forth from Europe's constantly fermenting cauldron of debate and conflict, including absolutism, scientism, rationalism, capitalism, nationalism, liberalism, and totalitarianism. You'll investigate the forces that intermingled to create the Industrial Revolution and the accompanying economic and social upheavals that would, in turn, create so many more. You'll also make sense of the European ideologies of government, including the rule of law, the concept of "the consent of the governed," taxation, an independent judiciary, and other concepts. You'll explore the new roles for religion in European life, from the end of the traditional union of altar and throne to great upheavals such as the Protestant Reformation and the Great Schism. And you'll witness the evolution of the European class system, which influenced the social forces that swirled around it just as much as it was influenced by them. Rather than offering a laundry list of dates, events, and famous individuals, Professor Bartlett leaves you instead with an understanding of historical and social causality. More important: He offers you the chance to experience Europe's development from a European perspective.

Free Download The Aging Brain [TTC Audio] English | June 24, 2016 | ASIN: B01GW3RPDS | M4B@64 kbps | 6h 18m | 183 MB Lecturer: Thad A. Polk We're all getting older every day, and scientific research has shown that starting in our 20s, some brain functions begin a linear decline. But is old age all doom and gloom? Not at all! While it's true that some functions in the aging brain decline, neuroscientists have discovered that many other brain functions remain stable - or even improve - as we age. Furthermore, nurture plays as significant a role as nature, and there are a number of strategies you can implement to stave off declining brain function, including: Incorporating physical activity into your routineEating a healthy dietMaintaining a vibrant social lifeReducing your stress The science behind the aging brain tells a fascinating - and often counterintuitive - story. Is "aging" a disease or merely a natural occurrence that produces disease-like symptoms? If humans are biologically programmed to survive and thrive, why do we age at all? Is it possible (or even desirable) to "cure" aging altogether? Delve into these questions and more in The Aging Brain. Taught by a neuroscientist and award-winning professor at the University of Michigan, these 12 eye-opening lectures will give you a wealth of new insights into what happens to the brain over time - as well as strategies to mitigate the effects of aging and enhance your quality of life into old age. With a mix of scientific research and practical applications, Professor Polk brings cutting-edge science to life. He takes you down to the cellular and even molecular levels of the brain to show you why certain functions decline, how some aspects of brain aging are under genetic control, and what you can do to prolong your health and keep your mind sharp. Aging affects us all, but you have some control over how it affects you.

Free Download Rome and the Barbarians [TTC Audio] English | July 08, 2013 | ASIN: B00DTO5ZFO | M4B@64 kbps | 18h 24m | 541 MB Lecturer: Kenneth W. Harl The history of the Romans as they advanced the frontiers of Classical civilization is often told as a story of warfare and conquest - the mighty legions encountering the "barbarians." But this only tells one side of the story. Who were the Celts, Goths, Huns, and Persians met by the Romans as they marched north and east? What were the political, military, and social institutions that made Rome so stable, allowing its power to be wielded against these different cultures for nearly three centuries? What role did those institutions themselves play in assimilating barbarian peoples? These 36 engaging lectures tell the story of the complex relationship between each of these native peoples and their Roman conquerors as they intermarried, exchanged ideas and mores, and, in the ensuing provincial Roman cultures, formed the basis of Western European civilization. You'll study the institutions that made Rome so extraordinary, as well as the extraordinary figures - both Roman and barbarian - whose names have been familiar to us for so long. You'll learn about Augustus, Constantine I, Diocletian, Gaius Julius Caesar, Nero, Attila the Hun, as well as a myriad of figures whose names are less familiar to us. But these lectures deliver far more than personal snapshots, as compelling as those may be. Professor Harl brings to life the institutions that shaped both Rome and her relationship with, and assimilation of, the barbarians at her constantly expanding frontiers. You'll come away with a new appreciation of how our Western world came to be and detailed knowledge about the individuals from royalty to "barbarian" who played key roles in that process.

Polk For millennia, philosophers and scientists have been trying to unlock the secrets of the mind with only limited success-until now. Today, with modern technologies including the best in neuroscience, medical imaging, and recent advances in artificial intelligence, we are making more progress than ever before. In Introduction to Cognitive Science, Professor Thad A. Polk takes you on a fascinating tour of the latest discoveries in the relatively new field of cognitive science. The goal is nothing less than understanding every interaction working in the human brain to produce all forms of cognition. Computer scientists, engineers, linguists, physicians, psychologists, and more are all pursuing the mysteries of the most complex structure in the known universe, the elegant human brain. But how do we learn about the mechanisms underlying human cognition? Unlike scientists studying other parts of the body, hands-on examination of the brain yields limited results. We can certainly learn about the brain's structure, but where is the "thinking"? How can we best use our mind to learn about the mind? In 24 exciting lectures, Professor Polk shares dozens of the most challenging questions in cognitive science today: How do humans process language? How do we make decisions, and why do we so often regret them later? What are emotions, and why do we feel them? How does the brain affect our visual perception of the world? In this course, Professor Polk gives the latest, exciting answers for these questions, and many more.

No matter where we have lived on this planet, we've formed our identities with whatever information has been available to us. Today, with relatively easy access to our DNA ancestry, we have more data about ourselves and family history than previous generations could have imagined. In the 12 fascinating lessons of Identity in the Age of Ancestral DNA, Anita Foeman, PhD, professor of communication and media, and founder and primary investigator of the DNA Discussion Project at West Chester University, takes us behind the scenes to examine what really happens when individuals receive their personal DNA ancestry results. By learning about their individual and family reactions, we learn more about our own identity narratives as well. Your results will tell you where your ancestors likely lived, and you will probably receive a chart indicating what percentage of your ancestors came from which parts of the world. But no matter what else shows up in your DNA ancestry chart, your personal lineage goes back to Africa. Scientists have identified the most recent common matrilineal ancestor and patrilineal ancestor of every person alive today. As a consequence of this common heritage, the DNA of every human being alive today - regardless of height, skin color, head shape, or any other physical characteristic - is 99.9 percent identical. As you'll discover in Identity in the Age of Ancestral DNA, genetics brings us all to conversations that would have been impossible just a few decades ago. As we investigate our own DNA ancestry, there's hope we'll become more willing to accept a fluid identity in ourselves and others. We do have the ability to reclaim the totality of what we are and live well with any paradox - working toward a more wide-reaching American narrative.

Free Download TTC - Writing Great Fiction Storytelling Tips and Techniques Last updated 9/2024 MP4 | Video: h264, 1280x720 | Audio: AAC, 44.1 KHz, 2 Ch Genre: eLearning | Language: English | Duration: 24 Lessons ( 12h 18m ) | Size: 10.3 GB Whether you're huddled around the campfire, composing an email to a friend, or sitting down to write a novel, storytelling is fundamental to human nature. But as any writer can tell you, the blank page can be daunting. It's tough to know where to get started, what details to include in each scene, and how to move from the kernel of an idea to a completed manuscript. Writing great fiction isn't a gift reserved for the talented few. There is a craft to storytelling that can be learned, and studying the fiction writer's techniques can be incredibly rewarding-both personally and professionally. Even if you don't have ambitions of penning the next Moby-Dick, you'll find value in exploring all the elements of great fiction. From evoking a scene to charting a plot to selecting a point of view, Writing Great Fiction: Storytelling Tips and Techniques offers a master class in storytelling. Taught by acclaimed novelist James Hynes, a former visiting professor at the famed Iowa Writers' Workshop and the University of Michigan, these 24 insightful lectures show you the ins and outs of the fiction writer's craft. More than just delivering lectures, Professor Hynes offers the first steps of an apprenticeship, showing you not only how fiction works but also how to read like a writer. Here you'll find explications of novels and stories across the ages Rediscover classics such as Jane Eyre, Bleak House, Middlemarch, Mrs. Dalloway, and others. Gain new insights into bestsellers such as the Harry Potter and Game of Thrones series. Explore the world of literary fiction, from Chekhov's "The Kiss" to Marilynne Robinson's Housekeeping. Reflect on what makes characters such as Anna Karenina and Sherlock Holmes so memorable. Find out how to create suspense like Dashiell Hammett, George Pelecanos, and John le Carré. In addition to showing you how the elements of fiction work, this course is an interactive toolkit. Professor Hynes closes each lecture with an exercise to get your creative juices flowing. Only you know what story you want to tell, but the many examples and writing prompts in these lectures will get you from thinking about writing to the act of writing-often the toughest part of any project. Begin with the Basics William Faulkner once said that writing a novel is like a one-armed man trying to hammer together a chicken coop in a hurricane. That may be an exaggeration, but finding your way into a story can take an equal amount of creative experimentation. In the opening lectures of this course, you will learn how to Evoke a Scene: There is a fine art to selecting just the right imagery to bring a scene to life. Whether you're heeding the old advice to "show, don't tell," or you're seeking to create what novelist John Gardner called a "vivid and continuous dream," scenic detail is the life-blood of good fiction. Professor Hynes shows you how to choose rich details while keeping your narrative uncluttered. Develop a Character: When you create a fictional character, you're creating the illusion of reality-suggesting a real person rather than replicating one. Four lectures on character development teach you how to build characters who think and act in plausible ways. See how novelists such as Joseph Conrad, Virginia Woolf, George R.R. Martin, and many others develop their believable and memorable characters. Craft Great Dialogue: Just as characters are illusions that suggest real people, so too does dialogue suggest authentic speech. Good dialogue serves at least one of a few key functions in a narrative, such as evoking character, advancing the plot, or providing necessary exposition. A two-lecture unit sheds light on balancing dialogue with narration, with examples from the work of Charles Dickens, Alice Munro, and Toni Morrison, as well as the professor's own fiction. Build the Story's Structure Literature creates order out of chaos. To do so, you need to provide structure to your story, which can be one of the most challenging aspects of writing fiction. Among the topics you'll study are Story versus Plot: Whether it's a novel, a short story, or a blog post, one of a story's primary functions is to keep the reader reading. One way to achieve this is by creating a compelling plot. After exploring the difference between "story" and "plot"-as defined by E.M. Forster-Professor Hynes unpacks the many techniques of storytelling, and he concludes this six-lecture unit with some thoughts about keeping momentum in relatively "plotless" fiction such as James Joyce's "The Dead." Point of View: As you'll see in this three-lecture unit, much of a story hinges on the perspective from which it's told. From the omniscience of Middlemarch to the free indirect discourse of Light in August, and from the double consciousness of Huck Finn to the unreliable narrator of The Aspern Papers, Professor Hynes surveys the range of narrative possibilities. Time, Place, and Pace: A story's setting is a powerful way to create mood. Think of London in Bleak House, or Middle Earth in the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Time plays an equally important role in fiction-the era of a story's setting, the sequence of events that occur, and the timing with which information is revealed to the reader are all pivotal elements. You'll learn how to syncopate action and exposition, scene and summary, short scenes and long scenes, present-time narrative versus flashbacks, and more. Drafts and Revisions: All stories must come to an end. In this course's final unit, you'll step back from the specific elements of scenic composition and consider the story as a whole. How do you build a complete draft? What are some strategies for revision? And what do you do when you've finished? A Practical Toolkit to Get You Writing As a working novelist, Professor Hynes is able to imbue his teaching of the elements of fiction with the wisdom of personal experience. He uses vivid examples from the history of literature as well as lessons and anecdotes from his own time in the novel-writing trenches. He shares his personal processes and techniques, and even examines specific examples where he struggled as a writer, revealing how he overcame those difficulties. But this course is meant to be a toolkit, not an instruction manual. The beauty of fiction writing is that it's a creative field. There are no right answers, no single way to tell a story. A wealth of exercises will get you writing so that you can practice the many techniques you learn. Along the way, Professor Hynes is an able guide, showing you what has worked for him and other novelists, and pointing out pitfalls to avoid. Writing Great Fiction: Storytelling Tips and Techniques is truly an exceptional course for anyone interested in storytelling. What Will You Learn? Learn how to create and develop meaningful fictional characters - both major and minor. Explore the dynamics of good dialogue, and learn how to integrate it into a narrative. Distinguish between points of view to determine which one will work best for your story. Investigate the pros and cons of writing drafts - and the importance of revisions. Get a realistic, business-oriented view of how to make a living as a fiction writer.

Free Download TTC - Mathematics Describing the Real World Precalculus and Trigonometry Last updated 9/2024 MP4 | Video: h264, 1280x720 | Audio: AAC, 44.1 KHz, 2 Ch Genre: eLearning | Language: English | Duration: 36 Lessons ( 18h 42m ) | Size: 15.7 GB What's the sure road to success in calculus? The answer is simple: Precalculus. Traditionally studied after Algebra II, this mathematical field covers advanced algebra, trigonometry, exponents, logarithms, and much more What's the sure road to success in calculus? The answer is simple: Precalculus. Traditionally studied after Algebra II, this mathematical field covers advanced algebra, trigonometry, exponents, logarithms, and much more. These interrelated topics are essential for solving calculus problems, and by themselves are powerful methods for describing the real world, permeating all areas of science and every branch of mathematics. Little wonder, then, that precalculus is a core course in high schools throughout the country and an important review subject in college. Unfortunately, many students struggle in precalculus because they fail to see the links between different topics-between one approach to finding an answer and a startlingly different, often miraculously simpler, technique. As a result, they lose out on the enjoyment and fascination of mastering an amazingly useful tool box of problem-solving strategies. And even if you're not planning to take calculus, understanding the fundamentals of precalculus can give you a versatile set of skills that can be applied to a wide range of fields-from computer science and engineering to business and health care. Mathematics Describing the Real World: Precalculus and Trigonometry is your unrivaled introduction to this crucial subject, taught by award-winning Professor Bruce Edwards of the University of Florida. Professor Edwards is coauthor of one of the most widely used textbooks on precalculus and an expert in getting students over the trouble spots of this challenging phase of their mathematics education. "Calculus is difficult because of the precalculus skills needed for success," Professor Edwards points out, adding, "In my many years of teaching, I have found that success in calculus is assured if students have a strong background in precalculus." A Math Milestone Made Clear In 36 intensively illustrated half-hour lectures, supplemented by a workbook with additional explanations and problems, Mathematics Describing the Real World takes you through all the major topics of a typical precalculus course taught in high school or college. Those who will especially benefit from Professor Edwards's lucid and engaging approach include high school and college students currently enrolled in precalculus who feel overwhelmed and want coaching from an inspiring teacher who knows where students stumble; parents of students, who may feel out of their depth with the advanced concepts taught in precalculus; those who have finished Algebra II and are eager to get a head start on the next milestone on the road to calculus; beginning calculus students who want to review and hone their skills in crucial precalculus topics; anyone motivated to learn precalculus on his or her own, whether as a home-schooled pupil or as an adult preparing for a new career. The Powerful Tools of Precalculus With precalculus, you start to see all of mathematics as a unified whole-as a group of often radically different techniques for representing data, analyzing problems, and finding solutions. And you discover that these techniques are ultimately connected in a beautiful way. Perceiving these connections helps you choose the best tool for a given problem Algebraic functions: Including polynomial functions and rational functions, these equations relate the input value of a variable to a single output value, corresponding to countless everyday situations in which one event depends on another. Trigonometry: Originally dealing with the measurement of triangles, this subject has been vastly enriched by the concept of the trigonometric function, which models many types of cyclical processes, such as waves, orbits, and vibrations. Exponential and logarithmic functions: Often involving the natural base, e, these functions are built on terms with exponents and their inverse, logarithms, and describe phenomena such as population growth and the magnitude of an earthquake on the Richter scale. Complex numbers: Seemingly logic-defying, complex numbers are based on the square root of -1, designated by the symbol i. They are essential for solving many technical problems and are the basis for the beautiful patterns in fractal geometry. Vectors: Quantities like velocity have both magnitude and direction. Vectors allow the direction component to be specified in a form that allows addition, multiplication, and other operations that are crucial in fields such as physics. Matrices: A matrix is a rectangular array of numbers with special rules that permit two matrices to be added or multiplied. Practically any situation where data are collected in columns and rows can be treated mathematically as a matrix. In addition, Professor Edwards devotes two lectures to conic sections, slicing a cone mathematically into circles, parabolas, ellipses, and hyperbolas. You also learn when it's useful to switch from Cartesian to polar coordinates; how infinite sequences and series lead to the concept of the limit in calculus; and two approaches to counting questions: permutations and combinations. You close with an introduction to probability and a final lecture that features an actual calculus problem, which your experience in precalculus makes ... elementary! Real-World Mathematics Believing that students learn mathematics most effectively when they see it in the context of the world around them, Professor Edwards uses scores of interesting problems that are fun, engaging, and often relevant to real life. Among the many applications of precalculus that you'll encounter are these Public health: A student with a new strain of flu arrives at college. How long before every susceptible person is infected? An exponential function called the logistic growth model shows how quickly an epidemic spreads. Surveying: Suppose you have to measure the diagonal width of a marsh without getting wet. It's a simple matter of walking two sides of a triangle on dry land and then using trigonometry to determine the length of the third side that spans the marsh. Astronomy: One of the most famous cases involving the sine and cosine functions that model periodic phenomena occurred in 1967, when astronomer Jocelyn Bell detected a radio signal from space at 1.3373-second intervals. It proved to be the first pulsar ever observed. Acoustics: The special properties of an ellipse explain why a person standing at a given spot in the U.S. Capitol's Statuary Hall can hear a whisper from someone standing 85 feet away. Computer graphics: How do you make an object appear to rotate on a computer screen? Matrix algebra allows you to move each pixel in an image by a specified angle by multiplying two matrices together. Probability: Have you ever forgotten your four-digit ATM PIN number? What is the probability that you can guess it? A simple calculation shows that you would have to punch numbers nonstop for many hours before being assured of success. An Adventure in Mathematical Learning A three-time Teacher of the Year in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at the University of Florida, Professor Edwards has a time-tested approach to making difficult material accessible. In Mathematics Describing the Real World, he enlivens his lectures with study tips and a feature he calls "You Be the Teacher," in which he puts you in the professor's shoes by asking how you would design a particular test problem or answer one of the frequently asked questions he gets in the classroom. For example, are all exponential functions increasing? After you hear Professor Edwards's explanation, you'll know that when someone uses the term "exponentially," you should ask, "Do you mean exponential growth or decay?"-for it can go in either direction. He also gives valuable tips on using graphing calculators, pointing out their amazing capabilities-and pitfalls. What Will You Learn? Get introduced (or reintroduced) to inverse, rational, exponential, and polynomial functions. Delve into the laws of sine and cosine. Dig into the rudimentary world of probability to determine your odds at winning the lottery.

Free Download TTC - Great Castles of Europe Released 8/2024 MP4 | Video: h264, 1280x720 | Audio: AAC, 44.1 KHz, 2 Ch Genre: eLearning | Language: English | Duration: 24 Lessons ( 12h 48m ) | Size: 10.5 GB The castles of Europe are one of the glorious legacies of the Middle Ages. Beautiful and fascinating to explore, great castles dazzle us with their grandeur, and their power to evoke an age of lords and ladies, knights and peasants, battles and sieges. But beyond their architectural majesty and romantic allure, great castles offer something much more. From the mighty fortresses of the Normans and the châteaus of France to the crusader castles of the Mediterranean, great castles are invaluable, historical artifacts that give us an incredible window into the medieval world, in all its drama, passion, and human striving. Castles were part of the very fabric of medieval society, and profoundly influenced the political, economic, demographic, and social evolution of Europe. In the 24 compelling lectures of Great Castles of Europe, expert castellologist Victoria L. McAlister, of Towson University, guides you through the era of the Middle Ages and into the Renaissance, highlighting numerous of the most memorable and historically significant castles of these extraordinary times. Professor McAlister's thrilling presentation combines her own in-depth research, insights, and enthralling commentary with exciting scholarship from the interdisciplinary field of castle studies, drawing from cutting-edge research in history, archaeology, architecture, art, and literature. Great Castles of Europe offers you a deep and unforgettable encounter with some of history's most remarkable buildings, as you see how major historical events such as the Crusades, the Reconquista, and the War of the Roses impacted castles and their evolution. You'll also explore the experiences of the people who lived in them, from kings and queens to lords and castle holders, and the experiences of the knights, administrators, churchmen, peasants, and women of all ranks whose lives intersected with the functioning of life within the castle. A Breathtaking, Historical Journey In this vivid and compelling course, you'll take a panoramic excursion into the remarkable world of castles, uncovering the true story of these amazing structures and their place in medieval life. In doing so, you'll encounter the many and diverse historical roles of castles, at stunning sites such as Caernarfon Castle of Wales. This soaring, monumental edifice, built to consolidate the English crown's hold on Wales, served as a weapon of political propaganda. The Alhambra of Spain. The exquisite interiors of the complex's Palace of the Lions were the sumptuous royal residence of the sultans of the Nasrid Dynasty. Denmark's Kronborg Castle. Immortalized by Shakespeare as Elsinore in Hamlet, this superbly elegant Renaissance castle served prin[beeep]lly as a customs station for passing ships. Massive Malbork Castle. Located in Poland, this classic medieval castle served as the administrative hub of a political state and the center of huge commercial networks. France's Carcassonne. One of the most beautiful and iconic medieval walled cities in Europe, Carcassonne emblemizes military action at castles, seeing a devastating siege during its tumultuous history. In Great Castles of Europe, you'll enjoy a spectrum of the most magnificent and historic edifices ever built, and a richly detailed view of life in the Middle Ages. Masterpieces of Medieval Architecture While we tend to associate castles with warfare, their defensive role was only one side of their story. You'll learn that a great majority of castles never saw sieges or military conflict. At the beginning of Great Castles of Europe, you'll look at the three functions that historians dictate that a structure must serve in order to be considered a castle. Castles must have Defensive Capabilities encompassing the architectural elements of curtain walls, battlements, towers, gateways, moats, and more; Residential Features including Great Halls, kitchens, residential apartments, hunting parks, and ornamental gardens; and Administrative Functions as centers of manorial estates and local affairs, encompassing roles such as agricultural production, courts of law, tax collection points, religious centers, and much more. Within this context, you'll explore the multidimensional lore of castles in the Middle Ages, as the story unfolds across the European world Castle Builders of Britain. Track British castle-building from the Norman invasion to the English civil wars and beyond; study sites such as the earth-and-timber castle Hen Domen, and its dramatic history, the famous Tower of London, with its classic Norman architectural features, and Bodiam Castle, an archetypal medieval castle that divides scholars as to its true purpose. Classic Castles of Spain and Italy. Trace the medieval history of the Iberian peninsula, where the mix of Christian and Islamic cultures produced unique castle architecture, as seen in the spectacular Alcázar of Seville and the great fortress-palace complex of the Alhambra. Also experience the beauty and unusual geometric form of Italy's Castel del Monte, a royal pleasure palace of Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II to indulge in his passion of hunting. Christian Fortresses of the Holy Land. Witness the proliferation of castle-building during the Crusades, in the crusader kingdoms of the Mediterranean, often under the aegis of the military orders of the Teutonic Knights and Hospitallers. Take in the site of the awe-inspiring Crac des Chevaliers, its elaborate concentric design and innovative military architecture. Monastic Castles of Eastern Europe. In the wake of Europe's crusades against pagan peoples, relive the era of conquest, religious conversion, and colonization that produced Baltic castles that resembled fortified monasteries. Delve into the scholarly and scientific study of Latvia's Cēsis Castle, administrative center of military orders and the site of fierce battles and sieges. France's Renaissance Châteaus. As the age of castles waned, visit the astonishing châteaus of France, which featured ostentatious splendor and a minimizing of defensive features, such as the palatial Fontainebleau and Château d'Amboise. Study the majestic Château de Chenonceau, and the other building projects of French queen Catherine de Medici. Castles and Medieval Lives Throughout these richly informative lectures, Professor McAlister illuminates not only the castles themselves and their historical trajectory, but also the remarkable people whose lives were lived in and around them. While many of the histories surrounding these castles hinge on the actions of male figures-such as King Richard Lionheart of England, builder of Château Gaillard in France; Master James of St. George, castle architect to Edward I of England; and embattled Dutch castle builder Dirk Loef van Horne-you'll also learn about the integral and intriguing roles of women in medieval castles. You'll discover that there were multiple cases of women who not only owned and managed castles, but also who built them and defended them militarily. Among these cases, you'll follow the stories of castle builder, Lady Roesia de Verdun; heiress Isabel de Clare, who defended the siege of Kilkenny Castle; and Margaret Paston, matriarch and estate manager of England's Caister Castle. You learn Margaret's story from the astonishing Paston letters, a trove of documents that tell the incredible narrative of one family's struggle to hold onto a castle through wars and politically volatile times. In rounding out the story of castles, you'll learn the history of the dehumanizing "slave castles" of the West African coast; you'll visit Neuschwanstein, the famous Bavarian fantasy and pseudo castle; and you'll follow the trail of Bram Stoker's Dracula to the castles of Transylvania. The 24 eye-opening lectures of Great Castles of Europe offer you a deep and unforgettable encounter with some of history's most remarkable buildings, and with the extraordinary human sagas that took place within their walls.

TTC Video - Great Utopian and Dystopian Works of Literature Course No. 2341 | .MP4, AVC, 700 kbps, 856x480 | English, AAC, 128 kbps, 2 Ch | 24x30 mins | + PDF Guidebook | 4.28 GB Lecturer: Pamela Bedore, Ph.D. Can literature change our real world society? At its foundation, utopian and dystopian fiction asks a few seemingly simple questions aimed at doing just that. Who are we as a society? Who do we want to be? Who are we afraid we might become? When these questions are framed in the speculative versions of Heaven and Hell on earth, you won't find easy answers, but you will find tremendously insightful and often entertaining perspectives. Utopian and dystopian writing sits at the crossroads of literature and other important academic dis[beeep]lines such as philosophy, history, psychology, politics, and sociology It serves as a useful tool to discuss our present condition and future prospects-to imagine a better tomorrow and warn of dangerous possibilities. To examine the future of mankind through detailed and fascinating stories that highlight and exploit our anxieties in adventurous, thought-provoking, and engaging ways. From Thomas More's foundational text Utopia published in 1516to the 21st-century phenomenon of The Hunger Games, dive into stories that seek to find the best-and the worst-in humanity, with the hope of better understanding ourselves and the world. Great Utopian and Dystopian Works of Literature delivers 24 illuminating lectures, led by Pamela Bedore, Associate Professor of English at the University of Connecticut, which plunge you into the history and development of utopian ideas and their dystopian counterparts. You'll encounter some of the most powerful and influential texts in this genre as you travel centuries into the past and thousands of years into the future, through worlds that are beautiful, laughable, terrifying, and always thought-provoking. Professor Bedore brings an acute understanding of literature's ability to both reflect and shape society, as well as an immense enthusiasm for great storytelling, introducing you to fresh perspectives on deep-rooted themes you thought you knew. She will take you on an expedition through a variety of idealized utopian and flawed dystopian worlds, embarking across a broad survey of the differing perspectives and historical backdrops that shaped the genre, from the influence of scientific optimism in the 17th century and satire in the 18th to deeply political and sociological approaches in the 19th and 20th centuries and beyond. Even if you are familiar with these writers, this course provides so many deep insight and alternative perspectives, it will be as if you are reading them for the first time. Uncover the darkness behind seeming utopias and discover the hope that lives beneath the terror of dystopias as you deep dive into classics, blockbusters, and little known gems by: Jonathan Swift Louisa May Alcott Samuel Butler Ursula K. Le Guin Edward Bellamy H.G. Wells Samuel Delany George Orwell Octavia Butler Anthony Burgess Margaret Atwood And many more With Professor Bedore, you'll follow these authors and more as they explore the limits of how humans live together, build societies, and view our own humanity. The Heavenly Places of Utopia Professor Bedore begins her study of utopian and dystopian storytelling with a look at utopia, the earlier of the two genres to be widely recognized. Utopia, both as a word and a concept, is a paradox. As she notes, the word "utopia" means "no place," but it is also a homonym for eutopia-a good or perfect place. This contradiction is the foundation on which the genre is built and why it provides such rich opportunities for exploration. Can we invent a perfect place if it is also no place? Starting with the book most often credited as the beginning of the utopian genre, Thomas More's Concerning the Highest State of the Republic and the New Island Utopia, Professor Bedore moves chronologically through history. She examines how humor was introduced into utopian literature with Jonathan Swift, reveals how utopian concepts were used to market the idea of the American Dream, and explores the intersection between utopian stories and science fiction. Lastly, Professor Bedore looks at alternative and selective approaches to creating utopias, such as that of Charlotte Perkins Gilman, who tells the story of a world populated only by women. As you travel through time and across various lands, you'll discover classic and contemporary authors, novels, and short stories that have critiqued, educated, and ultimately contributed to impacting the world as we know it. The Hellish Nightmares of Dystopia The Hunger Games. Divergent. The Giver. The Maze Runner. The City of Ember. In recent years, much has been made of the terms "dystopian literature," specifically in relation to Young Adult literature. The modern generation misleads itself by assuming that the dystopian novels which are popping up left and right were created simply for them. At the same time, the older generations does this fascinating classification of books a disservice if they believe the young adult selection chronicles the entire genre. First used in public by John Stuart Mill in a speech in 1868, the term "dystopia" has often been understood to be the opposite of utopia. If one is an idealized version of society, wouldn't the other be its the nightmare alternative? Professor Bedore demonstrates how the truth-that utopia and dystopia are both based on the same impulses through different means-is less counterintuitive than it first appears. The turn of the 20th century saw the beginning of the transition in thought from utopian visions to dystopian. Was this merely a reflection of modern cynicism, or are there deeper reasons that we turn to darker visions of the future? Professor Bedore dives deep into our fascination with worst case scenario stories, exploring many of the political and social forces that brought dystopian anxieties to the surface of literature. She reviews the impact of historical milestones such as: Globalization and political strife: the wars of the 20th century have been particularly impactful thanks to global scale and the technologies of modern warfare Rapid industrialization: the loss of traditional and agricultural jobs and increasing urbanization have led to rapid change and precarious quality of life for many Increasing reliance on technology: the increasing automation of modern life has displaced workers and led to speculation about the increasing influence of "intelligent" machines Democratization of literature: dime novels, penny dreadfuls, and other popular entertainments have often focused on the sensational and the lurid-elements much more familiar to dystopia than utopia Professor Bedore will introduce you to the "Big Three Dystopias" of the 20th century-Yevgeny Zamyatin's We (1921), Aldous Huxley's Brave New World (1932) and George Orwelll's Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949) in a whole new light. She will dissect how each one reflects the tensions and anxieties of the modern world and trace their influence through later writers like Ursula K. LeGuin, Octavia Butler, Margaret Atwood, Samuel R. Delaney, and many more. Two Sides of the Same Coin? Utopian and dystopian novels transport us to other worlds, but as this course will point out, those utopias and dystopias are often the same speculative world. Many of the portrayals of the future being depicted in current films and books including The Hunger Games, Elysium, and 3% present a push-me, pull-me worldview, with an elite set of haves and a distinct set of have-nots. As Professor Bedore explores, one of the key elements of dystopia-and by extension, utopia-is the balance of different social and cultural needs; utopias are an attempt to create harmony between the needs and desires of people and dystopias are often the result of drastic imbalances. However, it's not the only balancing act that utopian and dystopian novels tackle. The most powerful and enduring works covered in this course are often the result of examining particular tensions and contrasts like: Freedom vs. security- what is the ideal balance between being safe and being free? Chaos vs. conformity- how much structure is necessary for a "good" society? Kinetic vs. static- do people crave change and rapid growth or comfortable predictability? Intellectual vs. visceral- are the greater joys in life the ones of the mind or of the body? In a world with limited resources, these equilibria are not easy to maintain in perfection, which means a utopia for some often results in dystopia for others. Visions of the Past and Future Utopian and dystopian literature is considered "speculative fiction," which also includes the genres of science fiction and fantasy. Likewise, utopia and dystopia are also broad categories themselves that contain many subgenres with differing ideologies and techniques: feminist utopia, cyberpunk dystopia, heterotopia, apocalyptic lit and many more. Among the various subcategories presented by Professor Bedore is a particularly useful one known as "euchronia," a utopia that is set in a different time rather than a different place. Euchronias are usually set in the "real world" but also in a different time, anywhere from a few generations to several hundreds of thousands of years forward or backward. Euchronias are often a more direct way for authors to critique their own society-seeking to transport readers to extreme, alternative realities. Euchronias are exemplified by works like H.G. Well's The Time Machine, set over 700,000 years in the future, Edward Bellamy's Looking Backward, which occurs just a little over 100 years into the future (from its original date of 1887), or Ursula K. LeGuin'sHainish Cycle novels set in an alternate history and future throughout the series. These stories are fascinating not just in their speculation about the future or the past, but also in their ambivalent view of progress. They present complicated worlds that are both utopic and dystopic depending on the perspective-an important thread that runs throughout the utopian and dystopian traditions. Whether you'd rather escape to an idealized world or explore the depths of the human condition, you'll get the best of both worlds through this fascinating scope. Under the brilliant command of Professor Bedore, you'll understand the motivations of these subversive worlds, the basis for these memorable characters, and how the body of literature has fueled lasting change. Open your imagination, suspend your disbelief, and take a provocative adventure through the great works of utopian and dystopian literature.

TTC - Outsmart Yourself: Brain-Based Strategies to a Better You [24 M4V+24 MP3+1 PDF]|2.95 GB This is the most compressed version of the videos. Corresponding Audios are also present What if you aren't as in control of your actions as you think you are? What if your subconscious is driving your decisions without your approval? Is there a way to "hack" your brain to perform better, live healthier, and break your bad habits? We all can think of things about ourselves we'd like to change, but as neuroscientists are coming to realize, changing our behaviors isn't as straightforward as you might think. Many of our everyday decisions are rooted in the subconscious, which means we have to "outsmart" our own brains to see results. Outsmart Yourself: Brain-Based Strategies to a Better You will give you insights into how your mind works and the tools you need to make lasting change. Taught by Professor Peter M. Vishton, Associate Professor of Psychology at William & Mary, these 24 exciting lectures give you a wealth of practical strategies for enhancing your thinking and improving your well-being. You'll see how the subconscious guides much of our behavior, leading to a kind of autopilot through much of life, including when it comes to making important decisions. The brain is an amazing instrument, and neuroscientists today have more information than ever about how it works-as well as strategies for helping us live better every day. The surprising thing is just how counterintuitive some of these strategies can be. For instance, the best way to combat procrastination is often todo nothing for 20 minutes. By forcing yourself to do nothing, you won't get caught up in time-sucking avoidance behaviors like checking email. After 20 minutes, you'll find yourself focused and ready to get to work. Neuroscientists have stumbled onto countless insights for living better, many of which go against the grain of what you might think you know. Examine why exercise is less helpful for weight-loss than we had previously believed (but is valuable in other ways), why talent is an overrated predictor of success, how the effects of mindfulness meditation have benefited us since our hunter-gatherer days, what procrastination can do for your creativity, and more. Whether we're distracted by too many tasks, being influenced by crafty marketers, or simply living in a rut of bad habits, our conscious brains aren't always guiding us toward the best actions. Fortunately, Professor Vishton offers the latest in scientific research to outsmart the automatic workings of your brain. Outsmart Yourself: Brain-Based Strategies to a Better You empowers you take charge of your life and harness your brain's full potential. Uncover Evidence-Based 'Hacks' For Your Brain One common misconception is that we only use 10 percent of our brains. In fact, Professor Vishton explains, it's clear that we use much more than that, but we may only understand 10 percent of our brains. The good news is that recent years have seen an explosion of knowledge about the brain, and with that knowledge comes new opportunities to perform better. One key theme running through Outsmart Yourself: Brain-Based Strategies to a Better You is that a few simple practices really can offer dramatic results in our performance, creativity, physical health, and mental well-being. From the myth of multitasking to the mechanisms behind falling-and staying-in love, Professor Vishton shows you what is happening inside your brain, which will help you achieve your goals like never before. Improve Your Physical, Mental, and Emotional Health: Curb your unhealthy snacking, unlearn your phobias, improve mindfulness, and combat depression. These things are easier said than done, but brain-based strategies for living healthfully offer immeasurable dividends. Master the Mental Game: Researchers have discovered that simply imagining yourself performing an exercise can make as big an impact on your strength as physical practice. From how language shapes your brain to the practice of "monotasking," encounter ways to improve your performance. Hone the Subtle Art of Persuasion: Learn the tricks of the salesperson's trade, from after-dinner mints at a restaurant to the pricing strategy at your local watering hole. Researching the art of persuasion will empower you in your negotiations and make you a savvier consumer. Uncover the Key to Happiness: If money doesn't buy happiness, where do you turn for a fulfilling life? Based on longevity studies, see why valuing your time and deepening your friendships might be the most important thing you can do for yourself. Build a Toolkit of Strategies for Better Living When you complete this course, you will have an abundant list of practical, everyday ways to strengthen your creativity, improve your problem-solving, enhance your health, and generally operate on a higher level: Examine why keeping a notebook might be the easiest way to shake bad habits such as biting your fingernails. Delve into the psychology of anger and emotional mirroring, which will help you better diffuse interpersonal tensions. Perform a bit of time travel to outsmart your "present self" to make life better for your "future self." Consider eating fermented foods next time you feel the blues and need an emotional pick-me-up. If you want to boost your creativity, try taking a walk-preferably in a nice outdoor green space. These are just a few of the many tips and strategies Professor Vishton offers to help you overcome your brain's hardwiring. In each lecture, he backs up each of his strategies with evidence from psychological studies and the recent discoveries in the field of neuroscience. You'll explore some of the classic experiments in psychology, from John Watson's behaviorism to Stanley Milgram's obedience studies. Thanks to research with EEGs, fMRIs, and other technologies, you'll go inside the brain to find out how our neurochemistry drives our behaviors-and what we can do about it. Parti[beeep]te in Each Lecture One thing that makes this course so unique is that not only do you walk away with practical tips, you also get the chance to put these tips into practice during the lectures. How do you use a five-gallon and a three-gallon jug to measure out exactly four gallons? How do you connect two ropes hanging from the ceiling if they're more than an arm's width apart? Professor Vishton gives you ample opportunities to test your creativity and problem-solving skills with engaging puzzles, brainteasers, word games, and more. These mental calisthenics are sure to get your neurons fired up. Whether you are looking for a mental stimulus or want increased clarity for the challenges of everyday life, Outsmart Yourself: Brain-Based Strategies to a Better You offers a satisfying blend of theoretical knowledge and practical know-how to help you jumpstart a more productive and fulfilling life.
