As a company with a lot of knowledge, Biff Bang Pow offers students the opportunity to gain creative experience in the workplace. We know that students’ work placements often consist of spending the day making coffee, answering the phone and sorting papers, but at Biff Bang Pow we do things differently and try to make these visits a truly useful learning experience. We often begin by introducing students to our work and getting them to analyse the aesthetics and functionality of their favourite websites - this way they start seeing websites from the designer’s point of view and find out what does and doesn’t work in a website. The next step is for them to design and develop their own responsive site. This means collecting images, making a sitemap and producing a layout in Photoshop, before finally bringing their design to life using HTML and CSS. During their time with us, we also clue them in on the other services we provide, helping them to understand things like search engine optimization, responsive web design and content management systems. A work experience placement at Biff Bang Pow is a rewarding opportunity that will help to improve both creative and practical skills as well as prepare students for the world of work.

THE 2016 SCHEME IS NOW CLOSED TO APPLICATIONS. The purpose of the awards is to give experience of research to undergraduates with research potential and to encourage them to consider a career in scientific research. The awards provide support for the student at a rate of £180 per week (or £190 per week in London), for a period of between 6 and 8 weeks. The London Mathematical Society does not pay overheads and does not offer research expenses except in exceptional circumstances. The bursaries produce no National Insurance contribution liability. The closing date for receipt of applications is 5pm Thursday 4 February 2016. Change to Scheme for 2016 Please note the following change to the Scheme for 2016: Departments are asked to provide match-funding for half of the grant awarded. Departments offering match-funding will be able to receive funding for up to 4 half-funded Bursaries. Departments not willing to provide match-funding will only be able to receive funding for up to 2 Bursaries. Eligibility Students may only take up the award during the summer vacation between the intermediate years (i.e. 2/3, 2/4 or 3/4) of their undergraduate degree. Students in the final year of their degree intending to undertake a taught Masters degree immediately following their undergraduate degree may apply. Applications on behalf of first-year undergraduates will not be considered. Researchers in Mathematics at universities and research institutions within the UK are eligible to apply. Interdisciplinary projects will be considered providing the project has significant mathematical content. Postdoctoral researchers and new lecturers, early in their careers are also encouraged to apply, and should note this on the application form. Only one application should be submitted by a supervisor. Departments are asked to provide match-funding for half of the grant awarded (for example, for a 6 week grant at £180 per week, departments will be asked to contribute £540 and the Society will contribute £540). Departments offering match-funding will be able to receive funding for up to 4 half-funded Bursaries. Departments not willing to provide match-funding will only be able to receive funding for up to 2 Bursaries. Please bear in mind that this is a national scheme with a limited number of bursaries. Mature students are eligible to apply, but must not have a previous degree in any subject. Students will normally be expected to be on track for a first class degree in order to be considered. Students must be registered at a UK institution for the majority of their undergraduate degree. Supervisors and students do not necessarily have to be based at the same institution, however we expect that they will work together at the same institution for the duration of the project and have regular meaningful personal contact (an average of 1 hour per week meeting in person is the minimum expected). Bursaries will not be awarded for projects that are a part of degree work, or that take place overseas for more than 50% of the project time. Bursaries will only be granted for the student named on the application form; awards are not transferable between students. How to apply Before applying for a research bursary, you should check that the conditions of award and reporting requirements are acceptable to you, to the nominated student and to the institution that will be administering the grant.

2016 brings our 14th Annual Teaching With Technology Summer Workshops , and we have built an incredible program on a diverse set of topics. This year, we are returning to Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, and San Francisco for a number of exciting NEW topics to compliment many of our favorites from previous summers AND we are headed to new cities: Baltimore, Maryland and Boca Raton, Florida. Each summer, we bring together some of the best educators in the country to lead our workshops. All of our instructors have classroom experience and value high quality professional development. We use a hands-on, challenge-based approach to maximize the amount of time that participants have working with the tools and apps. Participants leave our workshops armed with new ideas and strategies that can be implemented in their classrooms as soon as the school year begins. Popular Workshops The iPad Classroom: iPads put the power of creating, curating, and connecting in the hands of students. This session focuses on effective iPad integration from both a conceptual as well as a practical standpoint. With our philosophy of "All of the Good Apps Fit on One Screen" as a guiding principle, this workshop provides participants not only with an understanding of the device itself, but also its potential for empowering students as creators of their own learning artifacts. Key topics addressed in this three-day workshop include reading and note taking, screencasting and multimedia creation, portfolios and publishing, as well as collaborative projects. Whether you have a cart of shared iPads, a 1:1 program, or a single device in your classroom, this workshop provides an excellent starting point for thoughtful integration into any curriculum. The Chromebook Classroom: Chromebooks and Google Apps for Education provide incredible opportunities for students to create, collaborate, and connect. In this hands-on workshop, we will explore proven strategies for not only understanding and using Chromebooks, the Chrome Browser, and Google Apps in purposeful ways, but also to design student-centered, collaborative learning experiences for students. Beyond the basics of learning about Chromebooks and the Chrome OS, participants will explore Chrome Apps and Extensions to support individual learners and empower students as creators. Participants will also delve into other Web 2.0 tools that integrate with Chromebooks and Google Apps. Key topics will include Formative Assessment, creating and curating, as well as collaborating and publishing. By the end of the workshop, participants will leave with the skills, strategies, and practice to effectively use Chromebooks and Google Apps for Education in the classroom. Creating Innovators Design Thinking & Maker Spaces: While we cannot predict what the future looks like, we do know that innovation and creativity are skills that our students will need. Design Thinking has emerged as a proven framework for helping people develop a creative problem solving mindset. The Design Thinking process first identifies a problem and then proposes and tests solutions, all with the needs of the end user in mind. In this session, we will take a hands-on approach to understanding Design Thinking and how we can use its principles to create a learning environment that engages students, fosters curiosity, and encourages a collaborative approach to solving problems. In the first part of this session, we will engage in hands-on design challenges. Next, we will explore ways that exemplar schools have incorporated Design Thinking activities into their own curriculum and how the Maker Movement, a movement to empower students as creators and tinkerers can be utilized to support students and educators as they prototype solutions to problems. We will also explore how to incorporate Maker Empire and 3D printing into the design and creation of a physical product. Finally, we will create specific activities and examples that you can use with your teachers and students right away to foster exploration and creativity.

Ever wondered how computer programming works, but haven't done anything more complicated on the web than upload a photo to Facebook? Then you're in the right place. To someone who's never coded before, the concept of creating a website from scratch - layout, design, and all - can seem really intimidating. You might be picturing the Harvard students from The Social Network , sitting at their computers with gigantic headphones on and hammering out code, and think to yourself, I could never do that. But you can! Anyone can learn to code, just like anyone can learn a new language. In fact, programming is kind of like speaking a foreign language - which is exactly why they're called programming languages. Each one has its own rules and syntax that need to be learned step by step. Those rules are ways to tell your computer what to do. More specifically, in web programming, they're ways of telling your browsers what to do. The goal of this post is to, in plain English, teach you with the basics of HTML, CSS, and one of the most common programming languages, JavaScript. But before we begin, let's get an idea of what programming languages actually are. A Brief Intro to Programming Languages Programming, or coding, is like solving a puzzle. In a human language like French or Arabic, the puzzle might be the translate a sentence perfectly. In programming, the puzzle could be to make a web page look a certain way, or to make an object on the page move. So, when a web designer is given an end goal like "create a webpage that has this header, this font, these colors, these pictures, and an animated unicorn walking across the screen when users click on this button, " the web designer's job is to take that big idea and break it apart into tiny pieces, and then translate these pieces into instructions that the computer can understand - including putting all these instructions in the correct order or syntax.

Today’s students have become fast-forward so much so that they are taking keen interest in learning about the art of web designing and trying to gain proficiency in web design field as their strong professional career. The first 30 days of learning web design for the students are vital as they need to stick to it, rather than thinking of quitting. They should learn the useful tips and tricks about web design and remain on track. There are many resources for learning web design that every student designer should know. You as a student may ask how to begin learning, or you may face excess choices and finally get confused which resource will be of great help. It is really noteworthy to understand the actual fundamentals of web design if you want to work in this field. We have approached with a guide that would help the students in learning about web design online. 1. Get started with HTML and CSS The first step to get started should be with HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) and CSS (Cascading Style Sheets). They both offer the primary code that builds the graphic user interface of internet’s World Wide Web. HTML is the actual structure of any current website. CSS mainly presents that structure a classy style. It is essential to know about these two easy languages if you want to become an ideal web designer. The moment you grab the logic behind HTML and CSS, you can easily learn them. 2. Resources regarding HTML and CSS You need to come across some right books to begin with HTML and CSS. Head First HTML & CSS may the only engaging book on HTML and CSS which concentrates on your learning experience. Some of the other learning resources include: RockingCode- 1sxtWebDesigner’s Own Ultimate Web Design Course in 2015; Udacity; Codecademy; Udemy; and Mozilla Developer Network . You can also go through some of the wonderful articles of 1stWebDesigner, including Basic Visual Web Design Mistakes, Call to Action – Web Design Usability, and Learn Web Design - Quit College. 3. Excellent Free Web Design Courses You can come across some of the significant free online courses as well as educational platforms for learning about web design. These cover: CodeYear; CodeAvengers; Mozilla’s School of Webcraft; A Beginner’s Guide to HTML/CSS; 30 Days to Learn HTML &CSS; Hack Design; Basic HTML and CSS for Non-Web designers; HTML5 & CSS3 Fundamentals: Development for Absolute Beginners; Diploma in Web Design; and Programmr . 4. HTML/CSS Ebooks You students can also try out recommended books on web design that includes HTML and CSS: Design and Build Websites (an approachable, brilliantly designed introduction to HTML and CSS); The Web Book (free ebook on how to craft websites and applications with HTML, CSS, PHP, JavaScript, and MySQL); CSS Mastery (advanced topics on CSS); and CSS Basics (learning the basics of CSS design). 5. Content Management Systems If you as a student seriously want to know about web design, then you are suggested that you need to learn how one should encode the themes for the CMS. The best and the most popular option is WordPress. WordPress approaches with many free plugins and themes. Joomla though complicated than WP, but it is also strong, and comes up with superb community and many add-ons. Drupal is considered as the best flexible open-source CMS platform. Tumblr comes with free customized blogs; and Squarespace is a cloud-based web design as well as hosting platform that is fine for professionals and speedy websites. 6. Consistency is the key While getting into web design, consistency is certainly the key. You have to learn about web design in small bits every day, rather than going through the materials in only one day or two of the week. Also you need to apply the new concepts at least for three times every week that you have learnt. In this way you can surely improve and gain about web designing more. 7. Creating the right-to-do lists You can make your own right-to-do lists that may cover: finish site map; create page wireframes; design page layouts (graphics, colors, etc); code pages in HTML; collect written materials; gather images/photos; set up teacher tools (blogs, calendars, etc); and finally launch of site. It is an appropriate idea of keeping track of your regular tasks using checklist, which will prove to be more productive. 8. Motivation is like a fuel You need to motivate yourself often for learning new concepts about web design that would assist you to gain more knowhow in short time. You can explore what actually motivates you to become skilled by observing yourself and by the approach you act. You can read blogs on web design; and those blogs that talk about different small startups that are being bought and which is software based ones. We hope the above guidance will surely assist you in gaining knowledge about web design and also developing your own attractive websites.

Applied mathematical science involves the use of analytical and computational mathematics to solve real-world problems. Its core is comprised of modeling, analysis and scientific computing. Using that core, applied mathematical scientists study a broad spectrum of problems across several disciplines. In fact, applied mathematicians are connected more closely through their shared approach and attitude toward interdisciplinary research rather than a shared interest in any particular set of problems. Moreover, an explicit goal of applied mathematical science is to contribute significantly to another discipline. Hence, the objective of applied mathematics is to foster interdisciplinary research and education. Research and education in applied mathematical science involves four stages: Find an interesting problem that may benefit from mathematical analysis. Develop an abstract model (i.e., a "mathematical model") that describes salient features of the problem. Apply existing analytical and computational methods or developing new methods to solve the mathematical model. Determine what insight the mathematical model has provided to the original problem. Applied mathematicians are inherently interdisciplinary. As mentioned above, applied mathematicians are connected closely through their shared approach toward interdisciplinary research. They are individuals who are well trained in the development of mathematical models for real-world problems, and the modern analytical and computational tools to solve them. A strong group of applied mathematicians can be a great asset to any number of scientific and engineering programs within the university where they can provide the theoretical/quantitative support or foundation.
