E-book conversion Often the book we want to read on our ebook reader is in a format that is incompatible or just doesn’t look good. When this happens we have four choices (1) forget the whole thing, (2) forget that ebook (file) and try to get free or, more likely, pay more money for, a new, compatible ebook file, (3) get another ebook reader, or (4) convert the file to something we can use. If you picked #4 then this section of the Wiki page is for you.

Learning English Mooc to be launched on FutureLearn The British Council is to offer its first free online course for learning English on the UK massive open online course platform FutureLearn. It is the first course to be delivered by one of the “cultural partners” of the Open University-owned Mooc provider, rather than by a university. Other such partners include the British Library and the British Museum. The course, which will begin this autumn, is aimed at non-native speakers with intermediate levels of English language proficiency, and will include learning about British culture and traditions to enable learners to gain a better understanding of life in the UK. It is not designed to link directly with any UK government-recognised Secure English Language Test, however the British Council said it hoped that participants on the course would “feel confident to then explore options towards taking a SELT”. chris.parr@tsleducation.com Click to rate 1 star out of 52 stars out of 53 stars out of 54 stars out of 55 stars out of 5 0 out of 5 stars

History[edit] The first volume of the taxonomy, "Handbook I: Cognitive" (Bloom et al. 1956) was published in 1956. Cognitive[edit]
