Dickinson, is an invaluable resource for IB Physics teachers, whether new to teaching the course or a seasoned veteran. This second edition has been fully updated to align with the latest requirements of the Internal Assessment (IA) aspect of the IB Physics Guide (first assessment 2016). It is a collection of 60 lab experiments from a range of physics topics, rewritten to comply with the latest guide’s Personal Engagement (P), Exploration (EX), Analysis (A), Evaluation (EV) & Communication (C) criteria. The guide accompanies the textbook, Physics for use with the IB Diploma Programme also by Michael J. Dickinson. Written in plain English with an international audience in mind, it is the ideal teaching and learning resource for both standard and higher levels of the IB Physics course. This Practical Scheme of Work contains: • A collection of 60 lab experiment sheets covering a wide range of topics, each one containing a marking grid so that the criteria being assessed is easily identified. • Invaluable information which is aimed to help teachers understand the latest requirements of the Internal Assessment (IA) aspect of the course (first assessment 2016). • Examples of the 4/PSOW and new 4/CSS coversheets describing exactly what information is required by the IBO when student IA sample work is submitted for moderation. • An explanation of the regulations regarding the Personal Engagement (P), Exploration (EX), Analysis (A), Evaluation (EV) and Communication (C) criteria of the Practical Scheme of Work. • A marked example of the new Individual Investigation written in accordance with the IB Internal Assessment regulations, with supporting notes to provide guidance to teachers and students regarding the IB assessment of the students’ practical work. • Numerous titles for practical experiments that teachers can use as inspiration for their own practical scheme of work, ideas of titles for students’ Individual Investigations or topics that students can use when deciding on a title for an Extended Essay in Physics. • An explanation and example of the requirements of the Group 4 Project.

Machine Learning in Action is unique book that blends the foundational theories of machine learning with the practical realities of building tools for everyday data analysis. You'll use the flexible Python programming language to build programs that implement algorithms for data classification, forecasting, recommendations, and higher-level features like summarization and simplification.

This revealing book documents the design and manufacture of intimate apparel from the ancient world through the twentieth century. From as far back as 3000 B.C., it traces the development of what women wore beneath their outer clothing, including hoops, stays, petticoats, corsets, brassieres, and other foundation garments. Fashion historian Elizabeth Ewing examines in detail the ways in which underwear reflects social influences, from women's emancipation and the introduction of new materials and methods of manufacture to the sexual motivation that underlies all fashion trends. Generously illustrated with Jean Webber's delicate line drawings, this excellent reference features a full bibliography and index. In addition to its value to professional historians and designers, it provides fascinating reading for all fashion lovers.
