This devicedetects motion outside the machine, and if no activity is sensed, this device turns off the vendingmachine after a compressor cycle is completed. If activity is sensed in front of the machine, or ifthe device calculates that the compressor should run to keep the soda cool, the vending machineis turned back on. The other technology tested uses electroluminescent (EL) panels in place ofthe traditional fluorescent lights. Surprisingly, lighting accounts for approximately half of theenergy used by a typical soda vending machine. The results of this comparison were provided toFocus on Energy

Educators face a seeming dichotomy: persist in traditional anti-cheating educational structures,advancing anti-cheating technology and jurisprudence; or, embrace technological progress and encourage the cooperativeuse of student technology in learning. Finally, we propose incorporating Agile approaches in education as a potentialsolution.I.

Thisreport ranged from funding, whereby students would be expected to take a greater responsibilityfor the cost of the courses, quality assurance within Higher Education by the establishment of anew Quality Assurance Agency for granting degree-awarding powers, and to the need to establisha closer link between industry and academia and within the courses, between training andacademic study.1.1 TechnologyThe report supported the use of
