PATHWAY: The Pitch Drop Experiment
The Pitch Drop Experiment: "The first Professor of Physics at the University of Queensland, Professor Thomas Parnell, began an experiment in 1927 to illustrate that everyday materials can exhibit quite surprising properties. The experiment demonstrates the fluidity and high viscosity of pitch, a derivative of tar once used for waterproofing boats. At room temperature pitch feels solid - even brittle - and can easily be shattered with a blow from a hammer (see the video clip below). It's quite amazing then, to see that pitch at room temperature is actually fluid!"

History
Before the day of computers and pocket calculators all mathematics was done by hand. Great effort was expended to compose trigonometric and logarithmic tables for navigation, scientific investigation, and engineering purposes. The larger efforts involved rooms of semi skilled people, called 'computers', capable of doing reliable arithmetic who would be under the direction of a skilled mathematician.
In the mid-19th century, people began to design machines to automate this error prone process. Many machines of various designs were eventually built but, the most advanced and famous of these was not. The Babbage Difference Engine.
Because of engineering issues as well as political and personal conflict the Babbage Difference engines construction had to wait until 1991 when the Science Museum in London decided to build the Babbage Difference Engine No.2 for an exhibit on the history of computers."

A P R E S S . C O M : Learn How to Program Using Any Web Browser: "Learn How to Program Using Any Web Browser teaches the basics of programming using JavaScript. JavaScript, a modern programming language, can be written using any text editor and displayed in almost any web browser, regardless of the operating system. In the process, author Harold Davis discusses modern computer programming principles and explains concepts such as object-oriented programming in an easy-to-understand manner."
Learn to Program, by Chris Pine (319)
Learn to Program, by Chris Pine: "There were a few guiding principles that I tried to stick to. I think they make the learning process much smoother; learning to program is hard enough as it is. If you're teaching or guiding someone on the road to hackerdom, these ideas might help you, too."

Teaching Programming (319)
Teaching Programming: "This is a brief overview of my approach to the teaching of programming at 'A' level (11th/12th grade), which has evolved over several years. I first try to establish key concepts, before going on to introduce a variety of programming techniques. At the same time, I am trying to reinforce important theoretical elements, appropriate to an advanced computing course. My students currently program in Turbo Pascal. Pascal was chosen because of its readability and the way that it parallels pseudo code algorithms. However, the principles described below can be adapted to any procedural language."

Just Spin the colour wheel and get a selection of three random colours.
