Holiday break

Hope you have a happy (and restful) Christmas.

The final test for the continuous assessment will be in the second week of January in class time. It will take 2 hours and cover all the material of the semester. We will still have a lesson in the week before the test.

Don't forget that if you missed any classes you can access the Summaries online through the ESTBarreiro webpage.

See you in 2006,

The El Teide peak overlooks Puerto de la Cruz where I attended the WSEAS conference last weekend. It is a volcano and 3,700 metres high making it higher than any mountains in continental Spain. I got up fairily near the top last Monday. Spectacular view but very, very cold (wind chill 17 degrees below zero).

Conference in Tenerife
I will not be available for Atendimento from 15 to 20 of December because I will be participating in the World Scientific and Engineering Academy and Society conference on Educational Technology.
The paper I am presenting is here and the full programme here.

I expect to be accessing my email while away.

Continuous assessment reminder

The second written test will be during lesson time in the week 9 - 13 January.

Pollution lesson

Some students missed the lesson on Pollution due to the December public holiday so here are some examples of Mind Maps done by students in the Turma Nocturna based on material on page 77 of the Sebenta and from Wikipedia
