The course is designed for people with little or no knowledge of statistics. It will be spread over three days covering material ranging from means and standard deviations to simple linear regression, and basic ANOVA. Some basic categorical data analysis will be included with the emphasis (...)

In this talk, Jenni draws on more than a decade of education research and teaching in chemical engineering to focus on the central issue of improving student learning in engineering education.

Illustrating these points through a range of innovations at the 2nd year level in chemical (...)

In this highly interactive masterclass, participants who are relatively new to engineering education research (although they might be experienced researchers in science or engineering) will engage closely with some of the key foundational issues in this research field.

Key questions (...)

Many contemporary concerns in higher education focus on the student experience of learning. With a larger and much more diverse intake than ever before at the same time that funding for higher education is being cut back in some parts of the world and at least limited elsewhere, questions are being (...)

This presentation will provide information on Canadian research grants in all disciplines available to academic staff and postgraduate students.

The Energy and Minerals ECM research theme covers areas from fuels and energy utilisation, exploration, mining and mineral extraction, to environment and policy development.

This workshop will be convened by the Theme Leader, Winthrop Professor Andy Fourie. Potential speakers are now (...)

Controversy continues to surround national student assessment in Australia. However, I argue that testing is neither good nor bad: the devil lies in what people – teachers, school, systems and even parents – do about the tests and the data they generate. I report the experiences of principals (...)

The “21st century microscope” will not be a single instrument; rather it will be an orchestration of specialised imaging technologies, data storage facilities, and specialised data processing engines. This presentation will detail two complimentary national projects that are creating an (...)

Researchers from the Optical + Biomedical Engineering Laboratory (OBEL) share their research findings related to the use of light as a medical diagnostic tool at the Lawrence Wilson Art Gallery on Friday 12 April 2013.

OBEL is based within the Faculty of Engineering, Computing and (...)

LUMINOUSFLUX explores the ways in which local and international artists harness the magical palette of light. In this talk, researchers from the Faculty of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics will discuss their current research related to the use of light as a medical diagnostic tool.

The VSG team will be at iVEC to introduce researchers to VSG Avizo and Amira visualization and analysis software solutions. Three, 1-2 hour sessions will be run: 10.30am (Life Sciences), 1.30pm (Materials Sciences & Engineering), and 3.30pm (Geosciences, Oil&Gas, Mining), and you will have (...)

In Australia there has been a recent drive to look more closely at the real-world impact of research paid for with public funding, as evidenced by the 2012 joint ATN / Go8 'Excellence in Innovation' assessment trial. David Pannell, whose research was well rated in the trial, will discuss his (...)

Scope: How do you creatively plan for a population of 62 million by 2100? Australia’s current major city planning frameworks only account for an extra 5.5 million people. Whether we want a ‘Big Australia’ or not, Australia’s 21st century is likely to see rapid and continual growth – if (...)

iVEC@UWA in conjunction with the iVEC Visualisation and Education program invite expressions of interest for hands on training using the Avizo or Amira 3D visualisation and analysis software, to be held during September/October.
