What is novel engineering? -- section II. Case studies from the classroom -- section III. Enacting novel engineering."Picture your students designing a hearing aid for the main character in El Deafo-and then disguising it as a fashion accessory. Or imagine them helping the shipwrecked Swiss Family Robinson build a structure to keep them cool under the hot sun. Novel Engineering shows how your students can use anything from a picture book to a novel to a historical text as the basis for an engineering design challenge. This innovative resource will have your students pulling information from literature to identify a problem. Then, using details from the story, they'll apply the engineering design process to develop functional solutions for their "clients"-the book's characters. Novel Engineering provides you with plenty of practical guidance for integrating engineering and English language arts (ELA), including a thorough introduction to the concept and detailed implementation advice. But the book comes to life through five in-depth case studies featuring the use of novels, a biography, and a nonfiction historical text. In addition to demonstrating Novel Engineering projects in the classroom, the case studies let you practice thinking about what your own students' work could look like and how you would respond. You'll see that this approach doesn't require books outside your existing ELA or social studies curriculum or a specific building-materials kit. You'll also see that Novel Engineering can help you engage students in a powerful new way. As the authors write, "We have been encouraged by the excitement that students and teachers have shown for their work during Novel Engineering units. ... Students have taken ownership of their learning and are able to navigate the steps of the engineering design process, creating functional solutions to problems they have identified in texts.""--Provided by publisher.EngineeringStudy and teaching (Elementary)EngineeringStudy and teaching (Secondary)EngineeringStudy and teaching (Elementary)EngineeringStudy and teaching (Secondary)620.00712Milto Elissa1968-1559816MiFhGGMiFhGGBOOK9910794578703321Novel engineering, K-83825329UNINA05908oam 22015014 450 991097377930332120250426110140.0978661284172997814623679001462367909978145187079414518707959781451988291145198829X97812828417271282841726(CKB)3170000000055117(EBL)1605853(SSID)ssj0000943994(PQKBManifestationID)11503135(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000943994(PQKBWorkID)10978557(PQKB)11605604(OCoLC)762469891(MiAaPQ)EBC1605853(IMF)WPIEE2008221(IMF)WPIEA2008221WPIEA2008221(EXLCZ)99317000000005511720020129d2008 uf 0engurcnu||||||||txtccrCommodities and the Market Price of Risk /Shaun Roache1st ed.Washington, D.C. :International Monetary Fund,2008.1 online resource (25 p.)IMF Working PapersIMF working paper ;WP/08/221Description based upon print version of record.9781451915327 1451915322 Includes bibliographical references.Contents; I.

Conclusion; References; AppendixCommodities are back following a stellar run of price performance, attracting financial investor attention. What are the fundamental reasons to hold commodities? One reason is the exposure offered to underlying risk factors. In this paper, I assess the macro risk exposure offered by commodity futures and test whether these risks are priced, using Merton's (1973) intertemporal capital asset pricing model for a sample of commodity prices covering the period January 1973 - February 2008. I find that commodity futures offer a hedge against lower interest rates and that investors are willing to accept lower expected returns for this position. Although some commodities are also a hedge against U.S. dollar depreciation, this risk is not priced.IMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;No. 2008/221RiskEconometric modelsCommodity futuresEconometric modelsCapital assets pricing modelBanks and BankingimfCapacityimfCapital and Ownership StructureimfCapitalimfCommercial productsimfCommoditiesimfCommodity MarketsimfDerivative securitiesimfFinanceimfFinancial InstrumentsimfFinancial Risk and Risk ManagementimfFinancial risk managementimfFinancial services law & regulationimfFinancing PolicyimfFuturesimfGoodwillimfInstitutional InvestorsimfIntangible CapitalimfInterest ratesimfInterest Rates: Determination, Term Structure, and EffectsimfInvestment & securitiesimfInvestmentimfInvestments: CommoditiesimfInvestments: FuturesimfInvestments: GeneralimfMacroeconomicsimfMarket riskimfNon-bank Financial InstitutionsimfPension FundsimfReal interest ratesimfReturn on investmentimfSaving and investmentimfValue of FirmsimfUnited StatesimfRiskEconometric models.Commodity futuresEconometric models.Capital assets pricing model.Banks and BankingCapacityCapital and Ownership StructureCapitalCommercial productsCommoditiesCommodity MarketsDerivative securitiesFinanceFinancial InstrumentsFinancial Risk and Risk ManagementFinancial risk managementFinancial services law & regulationFinancing PolicyFuturesGoodwillInstitutional InvestorsIntangible CapitalInterest ratesInterest Rates: Determination, Term Structure, and EffectsInvestment & securitiesInvestmentInvestments: CommoditiesInvestments: FuturesInvestments: GeneralMacroeconomicsMarket riskNon-bank Financial InstitutionsPension FundsReal interest ratesReturn on investmentSaving and investmentValue of Firms330.015195Roache Shaun1815930DcWaIMFBOOK9910973779303321Commodities and the Market Price of Risk4371720UNINA
