.Toen de Nederlanders zich in 1652 aan de Kaap de Goede Hoop vestigden, wachtten ze niet lang met het oprichten van scholen. Reeds in 1658 stichtte Kommandeur Van Riebeeck de eerste school ,,voor de Angoolse Comps, slaven en de slavinnen", ten einde hen ,,tot het school off leeren van de cristelijcke gebeden" te gewennen. Het spreekt vanzelf, dat het onderwijs in die eerste jaren slechts van zeer elementaire aard was. Zodra de kinderen de ,,proevstukken in 't lesen, schrijven, cijferen, en huns geloovs articulen" gegeven hadden, werden ze als volleerd beschouwd. Deze toestand van zaken duurde bijna onveranderd voort tot 1714. Dit jaar is belangrijk voor de Geschiedenis van 't onderwijs, niet alleen omdat in dit jaar "den Extraordinaris raad van Nederlands India en gouverneur d'Edele heer Maurits Pasques de Chavonnes en den raad van Cabo de Goede Hoop" het "van hooge nootsaakelijke g'aght hadde, vermits met leetwesen ondervond, dat nog op dat goede
werk, in dit gouvernement geen bequame order of regulament gesteld is geworden", een Ordonantie beraamde, "waarna den rector en schoolmeesters in dit gouvernment hun voortaan sullen hebben te reguleeren", maar ook, omdat in dit jaar, door het oprichten van de eerste Latijnse School, de eerste poging gedaan werd om 'n hogere Standaard van onderwijs te bereiken. Tot Rektor van deze inrichting werd benoemd Lambertus Slicher "van Middelburgh", die, zoals hij zelf vertelt, "in 't jaar 1714 met 't schip 't Vaderland Getrouw, in de qualiteyd van adelborst hier zijnde aangekomen" nadat hij "in 't vaderland ruym ses jaaren te Lille het predykampt heeft bedient ..
Helen Knothe Nearing: A Biography
No full textThe following dissertation is a biography of the American author and homesteader Helen Knothe Nearing (1904- 1995). The study traces the chronology of Nearing\u27s life, beginning with her spiritual formation through the early twentieth century Theosophical Society in Europe, India and Australia. It follows her relationship with Old Left socialist Scott Nearing and their pioneering experiments in homesteading (voluntary, self-sufficient living) in Vermont and Maine. The Nearings co-authored The Maple Sugar Book (1950) and their seminal work L i v i n g the Good L i f e (1954) based upon their homesteading experience, along with several other autobiographical texts that, through Helen\u27s promotion, established the Nearings as spokespeople for a simple, rural life in the United States at mid-century. With the republication of both works in 1970, the Nearings would furthermore become the symbolic grandparents of the late twentieth century back-to-the-land movement in the United States. This study demonstrates that Helen Knothe Nearing made their project a public endeavor by publicizing and performing the Nearings\u27 homesteading narrative. In so doing, she served as a social catalyst, an agent for change making Scott Nearing\u27s Old Left radicalism accessible to a later generation of followers. She completed their dialectic of praxis, complementing Scott\u27s theories with her practices as she promoted their personal narrative. The researcher culled evidence for this argument from Nearing texts, secondary materials, manuscript collections, oral interviews and material artifacts. Furthermore, she considered the shortcomings of biography as a genre within the field of history, as well as the limitations of personal narratives as both historical resources and vehicles for social change
Bronisław Knothe (1881—1950) Nauczyciel, społecznik, polityk
Full text linkBronisław Knothe was born in a patriotic family. He graduated from a Radom gymnasium in 1902. Then, he studied at the Philosophical Faculty of the Jagiellonian University. He obtained his teacher’s qualifications in 1907, having passed his final exams at the University of Warsaw. As he settled in Skierniewice, he started to teach the Polish language at the local “real gymnasium” (Polish Gimnazjum Realne). In the year 1914 he transferred to Łódź, where he worked subsequently in two schools. During this time, he began his intense engagement in social work in local organizations. After four years he wound up in Zagłębie Dąbrowskie (the Dąbrowa Coal Basin), where he participated in political life of the region, to eventually be elected as an MP in 1922. During his five‑year term, B. Knothe became a member of the PSL “Piast” party and at the same time published numerous press articles. In the year 1927 he settled in his family village of Ruszcza, where he administered a landed estate until 1944. Under the German occupation he was involved in underground activity. He died in 1950 in Kraków.Bronisław Knothe do czasu, kiedy wybrany został posłem w 1922 roku, pracował jako nauczyciel w Skierniewicach, Łodzi i Sosnowcu. Większą część swojego życia poświęcił działalności społecznej, politycznej i publicystycznej. Aktywność ta pozwalała mu stać się autorytetem dla każdej lokalnej społeczności, w której przebywał. W trakcie okupacji niemieckiej zaangażowany był w konspirację oraz pomoc materialną dla potrzebujących

Engineering an Ecosystem : Taking Cues from Nature’s\ud Paradigm to Build Tissue in the Lab and the Body
No full textThis manuscript took a 'top down' approach to understanding\ud
survival of inhabitant cells in the ecosystem bone, working from higher to lower length and time scales through the hierarchical ecosystem of bone. Our working hypothesis is that nature “engineered” the skeleton using a 'bottom up' approach,where mechanical properties of cells emerge from their adaptation to their local me-chanical milieu. Cell aggregation and formation of higher order anisotropic struc-\ud
ture results in emergent architectures through cell differentiation and extracellular matrix secretion. These emergent properties, including mechanical properties and\ud
architecture, result in mechanical adaptation at length scales and longer time scales which are most relevant for the survival of the vertebrate organism [Knothe Tate\ud
and von Recum 2009]. We are currently using insights from this approach to har-ness nature’s regeneration potential and to engineer novel mechanoactive materials\ud
[Knothe Tate et al. 2007, Knothe Tate et al. 2009].\ud
In addition to potential applications of these exciting insights, these studies may provide important clues to evolution and development of vertebrate animals.\ud
For instance, one might ask why mesenchymal stem cells condense at all? There is a putative advantage to self-assembly and cooperation, but this advantage is\ud
somewhat outweighed by the need for infrastructural complexity (e.g., circulatory systems comprised of specific differentiated cell types which in turn form conduits\ud
and pumps to overcome limitations of mass transport via diffusion, for example; dif-fusion is untenable for multicellular organisms larger than 250 microns in diameter.\ud
A better question might be: Why do cells build skeletal tissue? Once cooperatingcells in tissues begin to deplete local sources of food in their aquatic environment,\ud
those that have evolved a means to locomote likely have an evolutionary advantage. Once the environment becomes less aquarian and more terrestrial, self-assembled\ud
organisms with the ability to move on land might have conferred evolutionary ad-vantages as well. So did the cytoskeleton evolve several length scales, enabling the\ud
emergence of skeletal architecture for vertebrate animals? Did the evolutionary advantage of motility over noncompliant terrestrial substrates (walking on land)\ud
favor adaptations including emergence of intracellular architecture (changes in the cytoskeleton and upregulation of structural protein manufacture), inter-cellular con-\ud
densation, mineralization of tissues, and emergence of higher order architectures?How far does evolutionary Darwinism extend and how can we exploit this knowl-\ud
edge to engineer smart materials and architectures on Earth and new, exploratory environments?[Knothe Tate et al. 2008]. We are limited only by our ability to imagine. Ultimately, we aim to understand nature, mimic nature, guide nature and/or exploit nature’s engineering paradigms without engineer-ing ourselves out of existence
An Improved Knothe Time Function Model in the Prediction of Ground Mining Subsidence by Using the Kalman Filter Method
No full textThe Knothe time function is a classical method in predicting the ground mining subsidence. Nevertheless, it does not take the observation data into account in the prediction process. The Kalman filter method can solve this issue at large extent. Taking a coal mining work face of Xishan Coalfield as an example, this research compares the performance of the traditional Knothe time function and that of the improved Knothe time function by using the Kalman filter method. The comparison results show that through an improvement by using the Kalman filter method, the RMSE is improved from 133.4 mm to 78.3 mm; ME, from 91.9 mm to 3.1 mm; and the relative error, from 8.1% to 5.7%. Meanwhile, the improved model has good astringency. These verify that the improved model has higher accuracy and reliability. Hence, this research presents an effective method in predicting ground subsidence of mining area by improving the Knothe time function using the Kalman filter method
