!Mira que luna! Look at that moon! Resources for learning English
Fernando Olivera: El rapto.- TEXT FROM THE NOVEL The goldfinch by Donna Tartt (...) One night we were in San Antonio, and I was having a bit of a melt-down, wanting my own room, you know, my dog, my own bed, and Daddy lifted me up on the fairgrounds and told me to look at the moon. When "you feel homesick", he said, just look up. Because the moon is the same wherever you go". So after he died, and I had to go to Aunt Bess -I mean, even now, in the city, when I see a full moon, it's like he's telling me not to look back or feel sad about things, that home is wherever I am. She kissed me on the nose. Or where you are, puppy. The center of my earth is you". The goldfinch Donna Tartt 4441 English edition

Collaboration Seeks to Create Interdisciplinary Undergraduate Curriculum 

Four Universities Will Design Materials Based on What Science Students Should Learn
The Howard Hughes Medical Institute has launched a new science education experiment that will bring together four universities with an ambitious goal: to create and share effective models for teaching interdisciplinary science, including new courses and ways of assessing how well they work.
The four-year, $1.8 million National Experiment in Undergraduate Science Education, or NEXUS, will bring together Purdue University; the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC); the University of Maryland, College Park, and the University of Miami. Each institution will work on creating a different aspect of the curriculum that connects biology with physics, math, and chemistry.
