SECTION 2 BarterOnlineUK is a young, up and coming website in the United Kingdom, where users can ‘buy’ new and used goods; however, instead of paying with money, registered users instead exchange their purchase for an item of similar value. This part is perhaps the most complicated, as the registered users themselves must mutually decide on an appropriate value, with value either being the recommended retail price (RRP), or simply how much they believe the item to be worth, The website has been founded by a group of four friends in QI the north of England. Originally they exchanged their belongings among family members. They frequently found themselves swapping their belongings when they no longer had any use for them. They live by the motto ‘one person’s trash is another person’s treasure’, and hate to throw things away. As more and more people caught wind of the idea and wanted to participate in the exchanges, the group decided that the idea had the potential to become a successful business venture, and so it did. _ BarterOnlineUK is a start, UP Online i Sand has now been runnin, hates 8 for short time ago, the website h, , Which took Stound half a year Despite a r 88 already pamereq about | 500, a huge achievement i United kin tonths to set up being founded a gp Tegistered users, O13 ders.

Although bartering is an age-old process, many of the website’s users are unsure how to decide which of their own items to exchange. It often helps to order items by popularity using the “filter” button provided, this will tell the website to find out popular items for users’ convenience. To this, the QI7 founding members say just put everything you don’t want on there, efi people have different tastes, and you never know what they might be looking 78 for! In order to aid registered users in their exchanges, and to provide them with assurance, the founders recently added a new feature whereby on completion of an exchange, users will be encouraged to provide ene oa it with feedback. This feedback will include criteria such as the quality o i e item as compared with how it was edveniees the ae ei Se a With the seller, the speed at which the item was delivere baad oe friends believe that using this method, users will have a and trustworthy bartering experience.

To start with, what should be included first in the reflective journal? Perhaps suggestions from others? Prof. Tomlinson: No no, firstly you should include the study goals you set Q2/ yourself at the beginning of the module. This section should have been discussed in some detail towards the beginning of the course by Professor May. You should be able to find her suggestions on the slides she has provided the class online. Annie: Okay, thank you, Professor. Could I also trouble you to take a brief look at my bibliography and footnotes?

The only problem is that I don’t know what my career: orked as a greatest achievement actually is. I've only ever wi waiter in a hotel restaurant during the summer holidays from university. If you worked as a waiter in a hotel restaurant, you're bound to have worked with other waiters as part of a team. Would you say that during your time as a waiter, you developed any Prof. Tomlinson: leadership skills? Tom: Yes, well I suppose I was asked to become the team leader 73 of the food and beverage department. But that’s hardly an achievement. Prof, Tomlinson: You might not think so, but if you write that you were offered the position of the team leader, it shows a lot more about your character, for example that you’re charismatic and work well in a high-pressure situation. Tom: Tnever would have thought to write that down, thank you! | Q24 guess J should start listening to others more often! Annie, do you have any more questions or are you ready to go back to the library? Annie: Yeah, I think I’ve got everything I need, Thank you very much, Professor Tomlinson!

Oh goodness, we really should have asked him that I've been having trouble with it too, It just seems like such a pointless task What do you reckon the answers are? Hmm... think writing an essay might be a way of identifying and resolving a problem, because you have to state the problem in the introduction and then solve it, I’m not so sure about taking exams...1 thought they were supposed to develop lots of different skill sets. If I really had to choose, I'd say that taking exams enables you to become more confident in yourself. ..do you agree? Maybe, I really don’t know either. What do you think about the last two? Making class notes and presentation notes? Oh it’s so difficult! I think making class notes has to be a way of becoming a more independent learner because you yourself decide what the important information is and learn it.

Chimpanzees belong to the Hominidae family, together with gorillas, orangutans and indeed humans. Current research tells us that the chimps broke away from the human branch of the Hominidae family approximately six million years ago, and remain the closest living relative to humans to this day. More modern researches into chimpanzees have centred on their behavioural characteristics, once all biological and genetic factors have 031 been ruled out. In this way, scientists have unearthed an unfathomable amount of similarities between human and chimpanzee behaviour. Although much of this research has taken place through observation of captive chimps, the results are widely seen as an authoritative reflection of chimps living in the wild, Chimps live in lange so-called communities comprised of many male and female members, with the social hierarchy determined by an individual chimp’s position and influence. Through such research, scientists have found that chimps lear and adapt through : ale is often seen to alter yr oak in BOE the alpha male i Mt 04 ple he might puff himself up in hat ed to behave more intel observation of others’ behaviour, (0 retain pow’ lower-rankit Je grunting.

By comparison, the their female counterparts lighter, but with longer arms and legs; however, both species walk on all fours, Z and climb trees with great ease. Jane Goodall made a groundbreaking discovery in 1960, when she observed the use of tools among chimpanzees, including 933 c digging for termites with large sticks. A recent study claimed to reveal that Q common chimpanzees in Senegal have been using spears sharpened with their : teeth to hunt; however these reports remain unsubstantiated. Researchers have witnessed such tools, namely rocks, being used by chimps to open coconut gig ! shells and indeed crushing nuts with stone hammers. As scientific technology 935 has developed, so too has our knowledge of the sheer extent of the chimp’s intelligence. Research has now shown that chimps have the capability to learn and use symbols, and understand aspects of the human language, including 936 syntax as well as numerical sequences. x As I mentioned earlier, the umbrella term ‘chimpanzee’ is comprised of the common chimpanzee and the bonobo. These two sub-species are divided along fe Congo River, with the common chimps living on one side, and the bonobos living on the opposite side of the river. Over the past few decades, both of these 037 sub-species have witnessed an alarming decrease in portation density, with O38 animal activists now working hard ler than ever to protes i : ct those: encourage procreation. a In additi pepe F addition, next week's episode will focus more closely on how chi i impanzees in ivi ‘ é leat eel. a f 939 ee Senaviour of hum ; o40 (ss) pank YOU ey much for attending this evening's lecture, 1 ae WE yeectallY stimulating, and 1 look forward to seeing 5a lope you found it 4 u again next wei ek, Goosniett! gsecTION CG eee question 31 genetic eee ee rapa ROTA Corentrscach, HAWURE aR i ENS C ch EY ager: ABE — research [5] #41874 modem researches, [X09 “M fears inv chimpanzees have centred on their behavioural characteristics, onee all _ ae , once all biological and ate factors have been ruled out.” (EVER sical BAGH, BUA genetic, HE, (SI cor HAN LEWEMT OS gen 718, bolo question 32 observation aml ETA lear through, HAMA. geet: ABRSA, PURVDSRABA—H, ETH “Through such research, scientists fave found that chimps learn and adapt through observation of others’ behaviour”, {UA{ observation Question 33 tools R@tHRN - FELIZ Jane Goodall, chimpanzees, OMS BERT : ENTE “Jane Goodall made a groundbreaking discovery in 1960, when she observed the tse of tools among chimpanzees...

Does it open in June? Yes, of course, Madam. The exhibition will take place during July, and will showcase the history of automobiles from the very first commercial car in the late 1800s all the way through to the present day. Is the exhibition open for the duration of July? No, Madam, the exhibition will last 3 days, from the 1* of July to the 3" of July, and then the cars will be taken to another exhibition. Okay.

I think the real argument we should consider is global warming and protection or replacement of finite fuels. Solar power provides us with an incredible opportunity to replace electricity, and governments should definitely increase spending on research in this field. The theories discussed in our lectures, like 997 Simpson’s and Grey’s, are so vague and lack proof, so I don’t understand why we even study them. . T see what you mean, I don’t like learning unsupported theories for exams, and I’d rather spend my time learning something else. For example, I’d be much more interested in studying the animals in safari Q28 parks than researching migratory birds, particularly the effect of tourists on the quality of life of animals. As we know, every year thousands of visitors will drive in their own vehicles or ride in yehicles provided by the facility to observe freely roaming animals. Yeah, that would be really interesting!

To start your visit I'm just going to give you a brief account of the history of the memorial before letting you roam about on your own. I won't keep you long. OK? Mount Rushmore is South Dakota’s top tourist attraction and features the heads of four United States Presidents — George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln. Each head is 18 metres tall, which is taller than the heights of eleven people combined! The scul but due to a Jack of fundin} to depict the presidents from head to waist, Iptor initially wanted 2 the vision could be real eads at Mount Rushmore. on construction had to stop before this government $1 million to sculpt the hy onstruction of the presidents’ heads, the mountain Was just bare «a few hikers a year. The new carving at Mount Rushmore has bi bol of presidential greatness and hi appeared in works of fiction and other popular works. The sculpture has also m, which was its intended purpose, Q12 Before the c ng onl rock and forest attr as come an iconic s a way to develop tou! worked perfectly and now attracts over two million people a year. al plan was to carve the Presidents’ faces into the granite pillars e rocks The o known as ‘The Needles’, however the sculptor soon realised that thes ure. Instead he Were too eroded and delicate to support such a large sculpt hose to locate the carving at Mount Rushmore due to its grand appearance and brightly lit rock faces that experience maximum exposure to sunlight throughout the day as a result of the south-east orientation. Upon seeing Mount Rushmore, O13 the sculptor declared ‘America will march along that skyline.” The name of Mount Rushmore also has an interesting history. The location was originally known as the Six Grandfathers, however during an expedition in 1885 the mountain was renamed after Charles E. Rushmore, a prominent New York lawyer who joked that his annual treks fo the mountain had earned him the right Q/4 to have it named after him. Forty years after the mountain was renamed, Charles E. Rushmore donated $5,000 towards the sculpting of the president’s heads — the largest single contribution. In 1927 the construction work started and seven QI5 years later was complete with no fatalities. So that’s the history for you. If you'd like any more information, please feel free to ask me questions, or you can soak up the information from our fantastic guide book.

In order to gain top marks, you must include a range of primary, secondary, and tertiary sources. Are there any questions? Yes, Professor, I have a question. We haven’t yet covered how to undertake this sort of research in much depth, and I’m a little unsure of what you want us to do. In telling us to include primary sources, do you mean you want us to design and distribute a questionnaire, analysing the results? You could design a questionnaire, but you'll soon find that distributing a questionnaire on such a large scale is somewhat troublesome. We couldn’t possibly expect you to do it effectively as an individual university student without the necessary resources. No, ideally I would like you to form one or two focus groups, and interview them. This will provide you with a more qualitative approach. If your strengths lie in mathematics, please by all means take a more quantitative approach, but this will be more strenuous and time consuming, and isn’t entirely necessary for the purpose of this study.

My advice for you is don’t be i ambitious, and try to include as much information about various people or sectors. For those who haven’t ever collected original data before, what do there are plenty 124 you suggest we do? I would suggest that you read accounts from other people who have undertaken such research to see what advice they can give. I would also encourage you to read Chapter Eight in the course textbook, which should give you a good introduction to collecting data. Moreover, you should try to practice using the data table 25 provided in your course handbook.

Indeed, the downward pressure on traditional media prices means that media companies are being forced to get creative on how to make a profit.

And welcome back to Star Radio! A Today on the show we have a visitor from Yazoo Car Rental who is going to give us an insight into his company and into the public transport system! Welcome Jonathan! JONATHAN: Thank you for having me. Yes, I would like to start by introducing my company Yazoo Car Rental. We are the cheapest and most reliable rental company in the city and have won multiple awards for the quality of our services. This success did not come easily, however, and it proved important that we stay fresh and are always thinking of ways to attract new customers. a Our first attempt to do this was to offer a free gift with every a car rental, which we were confident the customers would be ach rental, — QI very interested in. The offer of a free hoover with ef juickl however, did not attract any new customers SO we quite stopped offering it. portion make to us and we In 2002, a new taxi company opened next door ~ ot of business £0 them, 30 we introduced an 4 might compete with their service, We here you could rent a car with a driver started losing that we hope anew package extra fee.

This offer in more fun colours like reds and some new customers of a younger age roup, however not some new customers younge group, however not as_ many as We hoped. Next I decided to offer our services at a discounted price on our website where it could be seen by thousands of people I thought that this could be a great way to attract a number of new customers who would never have heard of us before and it worked fantastically well. Following the success of the discount offer, we had so many customers that it became necessary to open a new branch of the company in the centre of the city. The cost of renting offices in the city centre was very high, so we hoped that our profits would justify this expensive decision, We made enough profit to keep our city 9 O12 913 ols centre offices open, but we had hoped for a greater increase. in customer numbers.

Due to the lack of people using the service I have found that the buses are never overcrowded so there is always a seat available. They are also never dirty as they get cleaned regularly. However, [have found Q/9 that sometimes the bus can be over a half hour behind schedule which can be very frustrating. There has been a lot of fluctuation in the price of bus tickets in the last couple of years. In the past, £1,80 for a ticket was enough to sustain the bus companies, however, as the price of fuel increased so did the ticket prices. Now the ticket prices are declining as the bus companies try to 020 encourage more people to use their service again. Well, that’s all from me today.

It is imperative that construction elements such as the insulation are fitted into the building in dry weather to prevent it from getting wet. This makes winter an undesirable season for construction as the heavy rainfall can have adverse effects 036 ‘on the building, Another climate type that has an enormous affect on buildings is humidity. Constructions made of steel and stone are largely unaffected by humidity, however, it can have a serious effect on wooden constructions if the 037 timber has not been correctly treated. Moisture from the air can condense in the grain of the wood, which then swells and shrinks in proportion to the magnitude of change in its moisture content. This variation in size can have disastrous consequences. In areas of the world that are prone to earthquakes, certain design and environmental conditions are preferable for protecting buildings in the event of a tremor.

Has the course been effective in improving the environment? Yes, absolutely. We have seen great results. Last year we planted a small field of trees and we have been measuring their oxygen outputs to see the benefits that they have provided to the environment. Since we were regulated by law last month, we are now able to hugely enhance our efforts. Our current goal is to introduce a lot more tree species to the plot so that we can establish a complex habitat and compare the benefits of each species. In order to do this we need to get a lot more students involved in the project, so I am very pleased to hear about your interest. Well, the project sounds fascinating.

Yes, it is of the utmost importance to our organisation that we find a way to repair the terrible damage that has been done to the environment by the human species. This is no small undertaking and our resources still need management, but from reports taken of our studies we have found that teachers and students have greatly benefitted from field. trips to the tree plantation. Yes, I visited the plantation myself on a field trip two years ago and I found myself greatly impressed by it. We have received a lot of feedback from visiting groups telling us how impressed teachers, researchers and students alike have been during their visits. Due to the educational facilities that we have carefully structured, I know that the visits are useful and engaging for students and that their experience is particularly special. So what is the particular focus of the organisation and the reports that it provides? Lam personally very interested in soil erosion, so 1 knew that | definitely wanted to focus some of the report on this area. Before I set up the organisation, I looked up information on what areas were currently being researched and I found that there were already studies into air pollution and water pollution. I obviously wanted to find a unique area to research and so these were no good. I was tempted to look into the background of overgrazing, but the impacts of forest exploitation are far more devastating and very little research has been carried out on this subject, so I decided that this should also form some focus for the report, Yes, that makes sense, What have you found to be the greatest benefits of the activities carried out by the organisation?

Roberts has a philosophy pioneering and innovation, having been responsible {or the invention of numerous technologies since it was founded by Dwayne Roberts in 1957. It has achieved many of its aims over the years, but its principal and founding aim persists through time, which is to explore new facts and imagine the unimaginable. ‘The cameras produced by Roberts have a multitude of potential applications that are currently being explored. One of these is an anti-gravity camera that they aim to attach to a space satellite from where it will record live, high-definition video and provide fascinating new views of planet earth. It could also prove useful in exploring other planets by providing researchers with never before seen images of the universe. Roberts are also experimenting with attaching the cameras to small drones that will fly through the rainforest in search of plants that could be used to develop future medicine, The camera also has the potential 20% cheaper than the speed cameras that are this means that more of them could be ‘toad network where they can control traffic by m by the speed regulations.

Holiday makers and tourists no longer have to carry a big, heavy camera around with them on thei travels! They ean instead purchase a set of eyewear with the built-in camera, which will capture the moment with a simple tap. Roberts are also developing a model of this tiny camera for use during medical procedures and operations. The camera will be used during non-invasive keyhole surgeries to enable the surgeon to see what they are doing inside the body without having to make a large incision. This innovative application for the camera could make surgeries a lot faster and the saved time and energy will ‘also make it far more efficient, As the patient will no longer have to undergo a large incision for their surgery, it also means that their recovery will be much faster with a greatly reduced chance of post-op infection. If any of you have an interest in working in this field of technological invention, Roberts is a very diverse and fast-growing company that would be a fantastic internship opportunity. Every year they organise a series of competitions where 40 entrants stand the chance of winning a place in their internship programme, so I would suggest that all of you enter.
