There are several advantages of a design-bid-build contract. The traditional structure is a familiar one and most owners, consultants, and contractors understand their roles and obligations. The completion of the design in advance of the bidding process allows for greater certainty for the contractor in fixing the price and for the owner in budgeting and financing the project. Since design and construction are completed sequentially, the owner maintains a detailed control of the design and the design team remains impartial and looks out for the interests of the owner. Design-bid-build also uses competition to improve the efficiency and quality for owners by providing a range of potential options and new contractors. 3, record 2, English, - design%2Dbid%2Dbuild%20contract

Scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) has proved to be a ... powerful technique in the field of surface science. The fact that sets the STM apart from most other surface sensitive techniques is its ability to resolve the structure of surfaces on an atomic scale, that is atom-by-atom, and furthermore its ability to study the dynamics of surface processes. 4, record 4, English, - scanning%20tunneling%20microscopy

La [...] microscopie à effet tunnel (STM) a été inventée par G. Binning et H. Rohrer en 1981. Son principe est le même que la microscopie optique à champ proche. Une sonde métallique est approchée au plus près de la surface d'un matériau conducteur, afin de détecter les ondes électroniques évanescentes des électrons de conduction du métal. On sait que l'amplitude de ces ondes décroît exponentiellement en fonction de la distance à la surface pour un observateur placé en dehors du métal. Le courant tunnel sonde-surface est donc une fonction décroissante de la distance qui sépare la surface de l'apex de la pointe : typiquement un ordre de grandeur par 0,1 nm [nanomètre]. De plus, le courant tunnel reste très localisé au voisinage de la pointe. En balayant avec cette sonde la surface à analyser et en conservant le courant constant, le signal d'erreur de la boucle de contre-réaction permet de reconstruire une image de la surface avec une résolution latérale inférieure à 0,2 nm, et une résolution verticale inférieure à 0,05 nm. 6, record 4, French, - microscopie%20%C3%A0%20effet%20tunnel

Learning is divided into two categories: technical learning and pedagogical learning. Technical learning includes the mechanics of operation of the technology. For example, if the chosen technology were video production, a TLC [Technology Learning Cycle] participant would need to learn how to plan and produce a video. Pedagogical learning is the extension of technical learning into the classroom to enhance learning. It is divided into three parts: preparation, planning, and practice. 2, record 5, English, - pedagogical%20learning
