Extractions: The DELTA format (DEscription Language for TAxonomy) is a flexible method for encoding taxonomic descriptions for computer processing. It has been adopted by the International Taxonomic Databases Working Group (TDWG) as a standard for data exchange. DELTA-format data can be used to produce natural-language descriptions, interactive or conventional keys, cladistic or phenetic classifications, and information-retrieval systems.

Extractions: Revised Bloom's Taxonomy The Taxonomy of Educational Objectives was created by Benjamin Bloom in the 1950's as a means of expressing qualitatively different kinds of thinking. Bloom's Taxonomy has since been adapted for classroom use as a planning tool and continues to be one of the most universally applied models across all levels of schooling and in all areas of study. The Revised Bloom's Taxonomy During the 1990's, Lorin Anderson (a former student of Benjamin Bloom) led a team of cognitive psychologists in revisiting the taxonomy with the view to examining the relevance of the taxonomy as we enter the twenty-first century. As a result of the investigation a number of significant improvements were made to the existing structure. Before turning to examples of how the newly revised Taxonomy may be applied, it would be appropriate at this point to make both the revisions and reasons for the changes explicit.Figure1 below describes both the

http://www.ebi.ac.uk/newt/

Extractions: NEWT is the taxonomy database maintained by the Swiss-Prot group. It integrates taxonomy data compiled in the NCBI database and data specific to the Swiss-Prot protein knowledgebase. NEWT is updated daily. Species with protein sequences stored in the Swiss-Prot protein database are named according to Swiss-Prot nomenclature. For each species, NEWT displays the following taxonomy data: Swiss-Prot scientific name, Swiss-Prot common name and Swiss-Prot synonym, lineage, number of protein sequence entries in Swiss-Prot and TrEMBL, its computer-annotated supplement. Entries are displayed with the NiceProt interface on the ExPASy server. Links to external sites are chosen by the Swiss-Prot taxonomy team and show pictures and various scientific data of interest (taxonomy, biology, physiology,...). Due to the sheer volume of data present on the world-wide web, it is unfortunately not possible to contact each site individually. The complete list of current external sites that are linked to NEWT is available here . Should you wish to have your site linked to NEWT, or would prefer us to have the link to your site removed, please do not hesitate to

Extractions: Writing Assignments Types of Writing Assignments Assessing the Research and Writing Process Assignment Design Tools from Other Web Sites ... Contact EWP Assistant Director Student Resources A great deal of the writing that students are asked to do invites them simply to demonstrate knowledge. On exams and quizzes and in many out-of-class writing assignments, they are asked merely to recall and report what they know or have collected in research. In Bloom's Taxonomy , the acts of recalling and reporting knowledge are seen as less sophisticated than the alternatives of translating information into new forms, applying it to new contexts, analyzing, synthesizing, and evaluating it.

Extractions: Phylodendron is an application for drawing phylogenetic trees, used in evolutionary biology. It will read tree data in New Hampshire (Newick) format, then display graphical views of the phylogenetic tree. Various options allow you to modify, adorn and edit the tree. Standard application functions to save, print, edit and manage preferences are included. This program will not estimate nor produce the tree data. For that, software such as Phylip, Clustal W, and others may be used. Phylodendron is written as a Java application. This means that it will run on most personal computers and workstations as a standard program. This application is an enhancement of the Mac Hypercard program "Tree Draw Deck" released by the author in 1990. LVB - Reconstructing evolution with parsimony and simulated annealing

http://www.lis.uiuc.edu/~chip/pubs/taxonomy/

Extractions: Champaign, IL 61820 We describe a new way of classifying uses of educational technologies, based on a four-part division suggested years ago by John Dewey: inquiry, communication, construction, and expression. This taxonomy is compared to previous taxonomies of educational technologies, and is found to cover a wider range of uses, including many of the cutting-edge uses of educational technologies. We have tested the utility of this taxonomy by using it to classify a set of "advanced applications" of educational technologies supported by the National Science Foundation, and we use the taxonomy to point to new potential uses of technologies to support learning. Discussions in the field of educational technology concern a host of issues, including pedagogical theory, choice of hardware or software, methods of use, and evaluation of effectiveness. But in many cases these debates leave unexamined some fundamental assumptions about what counts as educational technology, or how we might think about innovative applications. Experts often disagree about what constitutes the objects of their study but avoid addressing their disagreements directly. It is no surprise that discourse in the field appears disjointed and inconclusive.

The Brachiopoda
Introduction to the morphology and taxonomy of the Brachiopoda with detailed sections on each major group.
http://www.palaeos.com/Invertebrates/Brachiopods/brachiopoda.htm

Extractions: Links Brachiopods are marine shelled invertebrates that look superficially very much like clams. They are actually quite different from clams in their anatomy, and they are not closely related to mollusks at all. In fact they belong to a (possibly polyphyletic ) group known as the Lophophorata , because they feed by using a fringe of tentacles known as the lophophore . These tentacles sweep microscopic food particles in the water into the creature's mouth. Most species of brachiopods are attached to the substrate by a muscular stalk, known as the pedicle . There is however still a free-floating larval stage. Sixteen hundred genera and many more species of Brachiopoda are known altogether, the vast majority being fossil (extinct) forms. Brachiopods superficially resemble bivalve mollusks in that the animal secretes a bivalved (two-part) shell of calcium carbonate or a combination of calcium phosphate and chitinous organic substance. However, Bivalve mollusks generally have shells that are equal in size and shape (although mirror images of each other), whereas the two shells of brachiopods are of unequal size (the technical term is inequalvalved ).

Extractions: TreeMap is an experimental program for comparing host and parasite trees. It is available for both Windows and Apple Macs. by Michael Charleston and Roderic Page is available for Mac OS. Response to Ashley Dowling's critique of TreeMap in Cladistics TreeMap versus BPA (again): A response to Dowling. Roderic D. M. Page and Michael A Charleston . Technical Reports in Taxonomy 02-02. 4 July 2000 There are two bugs in the randomisation routine in TreeMap, which have surfaced as a result of papers presented at the recent Glasgow meeting on host-parasite cospeciation in August 1999, and a workshop I gave at Sydney in June 2000. Because much of the tree and interface code libraries used by TreeMap are shared with other programs (such as TreeView ) and have changed dramatically in the five years since TreeMap was written, it has been difficult to create a stop-gap release with these bugs fixed. A new version of TreeMap is currently being developed, which will fix the randomisation bugs. This version uses a completely different (and better) algorithm for reconstructing the history of host-parasite assemblages ("jungles"). Until TreeMap 2 is released, please interpret the results of TreeMap 1.0 statistical tests with great caution.

(NOTE: This document has been slightly modified for the WWW from its original appearance in Vol.26, No. 1 of the Great Lakes Entomologist , pp. 297-310, 1994.) ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION RESULTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ... FORMICINAE ABSTRACT A total of 113 species of ants is recorded by county from the state of Michigan. The list is based upon literature records and specimens in the authors' collections and those of the University of Michigan Museum of Zoology and the Michigan State University Department of Entomology. The list includes 3 species in Ponerinae, 44 in Myrmicinae, 6 in Dolichoderinae, and 60 in Formicinae. Ten species represent new state records. Five distribution patterns are evident: statewide (39 species), southern counties only (5), southern 3/4th of Lower Peninsula (10), Lower Peninsula (17), and Upper Peninsula (2). Forty species have been collected too infrequently to determine the distribution within the state.
