National Research Council Aims to Improve Science Education

Anew publication from the National Research Council (NRC), Ready, Set, Science! is an educational tool that explains how the latest research on learning and teaching can be put into practice in K-8 science classes. The book provides teachers with summaries from the recent NRC report, "Taking Science to School: Learning and Teaching Science in Grades K-8." The summaries include results from the learning sciences and provide case studies to make the implications of research clear, accessible and stimulating for science educators. The book aims to use these real classroom experiences as examples teachers can use to help improve the learning process within their own classrooms. Teachers are shown how to select and design engaging instructional tasks and conduct productive discussions as well.

Do Static Source Code Analysis Tools Really Work?

jlunavtgrad writes "I recently attended an embedded engineering conference and was surprised at how many vendors were selling tools to analyze source code and scan for bugs, without ever running the code. These static software analysis tools claim they can catch NULL pointer dereferences, buffer overflow vulnerabilities, race conditions and memory leaks. Ive heard of Lint and its limitations, but it seems that this newer generation of tools could change the face of software development. Or, could this be just another trend? Has anyone in the Slashdot community used similar tools on their code? What kind of changes did the tools bring about in your testing cycle? And most importantly, did the results justify the expense?"
