Basic Education at a Distance
Open and distance learning has been used in many ways in the recent past to provide both primary education and adult education. The Commonwealth of Learning works with governments, schools and universities with the aim of strengthening the capacities of Commonwealth member countries in developing human resources required for their economic and social development. Many existing policy documents link distance education with new information and communication technologies, portraying them as a promising universal access and exponential growth of learning. This book answers the key questions to these issues and assesses the impact and effect of the experience of basic education at a distance all over the world and in a wide variety of forms. This is the first major overview of this topic for twenty years.

The Gregory Rift Valley and Neogene-recent Volcanoes of Northern Tanzania
The structure and volcanic activity of the northern Tanzania sector of the Gregory Rift Valley have hitherto been less well described than those in Ethiopia and Kenya. This book focuses on northern Tanzania where, although the volcanic area is smaller than those to the north, there are major features such as Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain on the African continent; Ngorongoro, one of the largest calderas on Earth; and Oldoinyo Lengai, the world's only active carbonatite volcano. Following an account of the discovery and early exploration of the rift valley, there are descriptions of the individual volcanoes. These are set within the context of the regional geology and geophysics of the rift valley, and in relation to the structural evolution of the rift and its associated sedimentary basins which include Olduvai, an important site in the history of human evolution The volume concludes with a discussion of the volcanism as related to the plume-related African Superswell.
Sepenggal sejarah
Sejarah bukanlah sesuatu yang kuno. Dari sejarah banyak hal bisa kita ambil sebagai pelajaran, bagaimana perjuangan, pengorbanan dan bahkan para pahlawan rela mengorbankan hidup mereka demi menjamin anak cucu mereka merasakan hidup tenang di negeri sendiri. Sudah saatnya kita mengingat, menghargai dan belajar dari tokoh bangsa di masa lalu, untuk membangun generasi muda yang lebih baik. “Bangsa yang besar adalah bangsa yang menghormati jasa pahlawannya.” (Ir. Soekarno) Buku ini berisi cerita-cerita fiktif yang berlatar belakang pada sebuah sejarah/tragedi/peristiwa penting lainnya yang pernah terjadi di masa lalu, seperti: perjuangan melawan penjajah, tragedi gunung meletus dan sebagainya. Beberapa bumbu fiktif seperti perjalan waktu, kisah asmara, pertaruhan hidup/mati, dll, menambah keseruan dalam cerita.
