The Asia Literacy Dilemma : A Curriculum Perspective
The Asia literacy dilemma brings forward a novel approach to the long-standing global debates of Asia-related teaching and learning.By bringing into focus ‘Asia’ as a curriculum area, the book provides original commentary on the rationale and feasibility of ‘Asia literacy’ and its role and significance within and for twenty-first-century education. The book’s unique contribution lies in a comprehensive problematisation of ‘Asia’ as planned, enacted and experienced curriculum, bringing together policy, teacher practice and student experiences to present an extensive discussion.By contextualising the problematics of Asia-related curriculum within contemporary national and transnational curriculum challenges, Cairns and Weinmann take account of conflicting discourses of nation-building, ethnocentrism, transnationalism, geo-economics and the purposes of twenty-first-century education.Its use of interview data with teachers and students recentres key actors that are often sidelined in official curriculum policy discourse.The book also introduces the concept of curricularisation to describe the process through which objects and discourses of curriculum are produced and reproduced.In doing so, the book presents a comprehensive discussion of the impossibilities and possibilities of Asia curriculum in the Australian context, providing an innovative longitudinal and integrated understanding of the status quo of Asia curriculum. Highlighting the urgent need to reinvigorate the re-emerging centrality of curriculum in recent education debates around policy, teacher standards, assessmentand learning outcomes, this book is an important reference for education policy experts and academics in the fields of curriculum studies, teacher education and studies of Asia.

Machine Learning : A Probabilistic Perspective
A comprehensive introduction to machine learning that uses probabilistic models and inference as a unifying approach. Today's Web-enabled deluge of electronic data calls for automated methods of data analysis.Machine learning provides these, developing methods that can automatically detect patterns in data and then use the uncovered patterns to predict future data.This textbook offers a comprehensive and self-contained introduction to the field of machine learning, based on a unified, probabilistic approach. The coverage combines breadth and depth, offering necessary background material on such topics as probability, optimization, and linear algebra as well as discussion of recent developments in the field, including conditional random fields, L1 regularization, and deep learning.The book is written in an informal, accessible style, complete with pseudo-code for the most important algorithms.All topics are copiously illustrated with color images and worked examples drawn from such application domains as biology, text processing, computer vision, and robotics.Rather than providing a cookbook of different heuristic methods, the book stresses a principled model-based approach, often using the language of graphical models to specify models in a concise and intuitive way.Almost all the models described have been implemented in a MATLAB software package-PMTK (probabilistic modeling toolkit)-that is freely available online.The book is suitable for upper-level undergraduates with an introductory-level college math background and beginning graduate students.

Is the cavalier perspective the same as the parallel perspective?
No, the cavalier perspective and the parallel perspective are not the same. The cavalier perspective is a type of 3D drawing where the object is shown in its true size and shape, but the depth is not shown accurately. The parallel perspective, on the other hand, is a type of 3D drawing where the object is shown with accurate depth and proportions using parallel lines to create the illusion of depth. In summary, the cavalier perspective does not accurately represent depth, while the parallel perspective does.
-
What distinguishes the parallel perspective from the vanishing point perspective?
The parallel perspective, also known as isometric perspective, does not use a vanishing point to create the illusion of depth. Instead, all lines remain parallel and do not converge towards a single point. This results in a more uniform and less realistic representation of space. In contrast, the vanishing point perspective uses a single vanishing point to create the illusion of depth and three-dimensional space, resulting in a more realistic and dynamic representation of objects and scenes.
-
What is the difference between central perspective and parallel perspective?
Central perspective, also known as one-point perspective, is a type of linear perspective where all lines converge to a single vanishing point on the horizon. This creates the illusion of depth and distance in a two-dimensional drawing or painting. On the other hand, parallel perspective, also known as two-point perspective, involves two vanishing points on the horizon line, making it suitable for depicting objects from different angles or viewpoints. In parallel perspective, objects appear more realistic and three-dimensional compared to central perspective.

Is the internal perspective and the external perspective always distinguishable?
The internal perspective and the external perspective are not always easily distinguishable. The internal perspective refers to an individual's thoughts, feelings, and experiences, while the external perspective refers to how others perceive and interpret the individual's behavior. However, these perspectives can often be intertwined, as an individual's internal experiences can influence their external behavior and how others perceive them. Additionally, individuals may not always be aware of their own internal perspective, making it difficult to separate from the external perspective. Therefore, while the two perspectives are distinct in theory, in practice they can be interconnected and challenging to differentiate.
