Fish-fragrant Aubergines yuxiang qiezi 鱼香茄子 Cooking oil, for deep-frying 1½ tbsp Sichuan chilli bean paste 1½ tbsp finely chopped garlic 1 tbsp finely chopped ginger 150ml hot stock or water 4 tsp caster sugar 1 tsp light soy sauce ¾ tsp potato starch, mixed with 1 tbsp cold water 1 tbsp Chinkiang vinegar 6 tbsp thinly sliced spring onion greens Salt Cut the aubergines into batons about 2cm thick and 7cm long. Sprinkle with salt, mix well and set aside for at least 30 minutes. Rinse the aubergines, drain well and pat dry with kitchen paper. Heat the deep-frying oil to around 200°C (hot enough to sizzle vigorously around a test piece of aubergine). Add the aubergines, in two or three batches, and deep-fry for about 3 minutes, until tender and a little golden. Drain well on kitchen paper and set aside. Carefully pour off all but 3 tbsp oil from the wok and return to a medium flame. Add the chilli bean paste and stir-fry until the oil is red and fragrant: take care not to burn the paste (move the wok away from the burner if you think it might be overheating). Add the garlic and ginger and stir-fry until they smell delicious. Tip in the stock or water, sugar and soy sauce. Bring to the boil, then add the aubergines, nudging them gently into the sauce so the pieces do not break apart. Simmer for a minute or so to allow the aubergines to absorb the flavours. Give the potato starch mixture a stir and add it gradually, in about three stages, adding just enough to thicken the sauce to a luxurious gravy (you probably won't need it all). Tip in the vinegar and all but 1 tbsp of the spring onion greens, then stir for a few seconds to fuse the flavours. Turn out on to a serving dish, scatter over the remaining spring onions

Photo of computer screen All styles no substance Honey and Mumford's model, although marketed heavily, and used widely in adult education and training, seems to have no serious academic validity. As a theory it does attempt to widen the trainers' view of learning, and trainees' view of themselves as learners. However, beyond this intuitive appeal to difference, the theory is crude, crudely applied and even when the learning styles questionnaire is applied, rarely carried through to different types of learning experience for the supposed different types of learners. This issue has been addressed in several commissioned reports. A review of learning styles commissioned by the Association of Psychological Science examined the evidence and found it wanting. "We conclude therefore, that at present, there is no adequate evidence base to justify incorporating learning-styles assessments into general educational practice. Thus, limited education resources would better be devoted to adopting other educational practices that have a strong evidence base, of which there are an increasing number, However, given the lack of methodologically sound studies of learning styles, it would be an error to conclude that all possible versions of learning styles have been tested and found wanting; many have simply not been tested at all." Frank Coffield, through Learning and Skills Development Agency research, found a 'bedlam of contradictory claims' with a 'proliferation of concepts, instruments and strategies'. In total they uncovered 71 competing theories. All were found (seriously wanting" with (serious deficiencies. Many were downright dangerous as they 'over-simplify, label and stereotype

Book page Maybe it's hard to shift from thinking your planet is safe at the centre of it all to knowing in fact it's a planet of normalish size and normalish mass rotating about an average star in a solar system of average everything in a galaxy of innumerably many, and that the whole thing is going to explode or collapse.
