Section 1 Good morning Riverdale Preschool, Sally speaking.

Hello, my name's Robert.

I've got a four-year-old daughter called Susie,

and I'd like to get some information about your preschool, please.

Sure, Robert.

Well, Susie's the right age.

We take three and four-year-olds in classes of 20 students.

Oh, great.

And how many teachers do you have?

We have two.

The first group is taught by Mrs Oliver,

Mrs Oliver and the second group is taken by Mrs Keogh.

Just a moment, I'll write that down.

Could you spell the last name please?

It's an unusual one, isn't it?

Yes, it's K-E-O-G-H.

OK, I've got that.

Now, I know the children attend for two or three days a week.

That's right.

The older ones, like Susie,

are here for three days,

which means 15 hours a week.

The younger ones, the three-year-olds,

attend two days a week.

That's a total of 10 hours.

And what do they do during that time?

Well, half the day is spent outside and the children can run around

and play games with their friends or do a calmer activity,

like painting, for example.

We have a great outside play area that we're improving all the time.

Yes, we were walking past the other day and Susie noticed.

You've recently put in a new slide, haven't you?

Yes, we're really pleased with it it.

It's a big one and the children love it.

And are you thinking of adding anything else outdoors?

Well, we were hoping to build a playhouse,

but that was too expensive.

So we're now making plans for a garden where the children will be able to grow flowers and vegetables.

Lovely.

And what else do the children do?

Well, the other half of the day is spent indoors.

This year the children seem to be very interested in music,

so the teachers are doing a lot of activities related to that.

Last year there seemed to be more of an interest in dancing.

Well, Susie would love either of those.

The teachers may sometimes play quiet games with the children,

but we always make time for a story each day.

It's a very important part of the program here.

Yes, of course.

Now, I'd like to ask you about the fees, if that's okay?

Sure.

We actually had to put them up this term, I'm afraid.

Yes, I heard I heard from a friend of mine that it used to be $420 for the term,

but it's just gone up to $470.

Is that right?

Yes.

We had to add the extra $50 to cover costs.

Things got a lot more expensive last year.

Hmm, I understand.

And I think the fees are still quite reasonable.

Another school I've spoken to charges $500 per term.

Oh, really?

My friend also told me that his daughter went on a trip to the local zoo

and that the cost of that was covered in the fees.

Is that right?

Yes, we did that last year,

but we'll be going to a farm this year instead.

We vary it, so, for example,

we may go to the theatre next year.

OK, it sounds like fun.

Also included in the price is membership of a special library.

Children can borrow a toy and keep it for a week,

and choose a different one the following week.

It's very popular.

What a great idea.

We would certainly make use of that system if we enrol.

Now, is there anything else I should know?

Well, the children have a rest here during the day,

and we make up a little bed for them with sheets and blankets.

But we advise parents to pack a pillow in the child's bag,

as we don't provide one.

OK.

I'll make a note of that.

So, what should I do if I want to come and look around the school during the day and meet the staff?

The best thing is to call the teacher on the classroom mobile,

and she'll tell you which time is best to visit.

Shall I give you the number?

Yes, please.

Okay, it's 0914 638 520.

Thanks for all your help,

Sally, and we hope to see you soon.

No problem.

Bye for now.

Section 2 Hi, thanks for coming along.

My name's Marissa, and I'm going to tell you a bit about finding part-time jobs.

Not everybody wants to work when they're studying,

and as this is your first year,

you may feel that you've quite enough to do as it is.

But you may change your mind or find that you need to earn some extra cash.

100

However, if you are a student from overseas,

101

there may be particular conditions attached to working in this country,

102

so you should check with the staff at the center before applying for a job.

103

Right, now the university has its own job center on the campus.

104

Well, actually, it's not on this main, Hilston campus.

105

It's based in the Student Services Building on the campus called Woodside, spelt W-O-O-D-S-I-D-E.

106

The center works on a drop-in basis,

107

which means that you don't have to make an appointment.

108

It's open six days a week,

109

Monday to Saturday, and nine hours a day from 10 in the morning until 8 at night.

110

The center is run by other students,

111

but a professional employment lawyer is on hand every Tuesday if you want any advice about your job.

112

There may be a queue,

113

in which case you will have to wait,

114

so make sure you allow plenty of time.

115

Part-time jobs become available almost every day,

116

and they are advertised on the university website,

117

which you can access through the library if the computer center is closed.

118

You should check things daily,

119

and if you see a job which interests you,

120

call in at the center.

121

There's a good variety of jobs on offer in the university itself just now.

122

For example, they're looking for people to check that all the vehicles using the university car parks have got up-to-date permits.

123

Office jobs rarely come up,

124

but in future the University is hoping to be able to offer jobs in the IT center.

125

There are also recruitment open days,

126

which are held regularly during the year,

127

when local employers come into the University to recruit students for part-time work within their company.

128

These two-day events are scheduled well in advance each term and are advertised in the usual places.

129

Of course, part-time work is useful to supplement your income,

130

but it's also a valuable way of building up an employment record that reflects your skills and capabilities.

131

One of the most common complaints of graduates leaving university is that many jobs require proven experience.

132

So those applicants who have evidence of part-time work on their CV often have an advantage.

133

The Job Center advertises jobs which will give you skills such as using word processing packages,

134

spreadsheets, or supervisory skills.

135

So if you have to work,

136

use the opportunity to develop skills which will help you secure a job in the future.

137

Now, what about the financial side of things?

138

Well, students who work part-time can no longer expect to be paid cash.

139

An employer will deduct tax from what you earn.

140

Depending on your own individual circumstances and how much you earn in a year,

141

you should be able to reclaim some of this.

142

You may also have to contribute towards an insurance scheme,

143

but you must ask your employer about these deductions.

144

You should also check whether you will be paid weekly or monthly,

145

and if you work extra hours,

146

what your overtime rate will be.

147

It's also necessary to make sure that your employer knows that you may only be able to work during term time.

148

Communication between you and your employer is very important,

149

but don't expect all employers to use email.

150

If you are ill or cannot get into work for whatever reason,

151

make sure your employer knows in good time.

152

That shouldn't be a problem now that everyone has a mobile phone.

153

And if you decide to leave the job,

154

you should make sure you put this in writing some employers require a month's notice even for a part-time job

155

so what sort of work can you expect to find section three hello john come in and sit down

156

you're here to discuss your research project are you yes i've more

157

or less decided what to do

158

but i'd like your opinion fine you've chosen a topic yes

159

i want to look at how people use public services in their local area.

160

Things like parks and swimming pools.

161

Right.

162

Well, the kind of information you'll get is very useful for town planning, of course.

163

Do you have a special interest in public services?

164

Not really.

165

It's just that I found a report in the college library about an investigation that was done ten years ago,

166

and I thought it'd be interesting to do a parallel one.

167

Hmm.

168

Ten years is a relatively short space of time.

169

What do you expect to find?

170

Do you think things will be more or less the same as before?

171

I think there'll be some differences.

172

For example, I think the number of people going to the library will have decreased.

173

And I'd guess that older people are using the sports centre more often than they used to.

174

Fine.

175

So those are your hypotheses.

176

Now what sort of data are you going to use?

177

I was thinking of using official records from the management or the local council and analysing them.

178

They should be easy to obtain.

179

I don't think that sort of information would be confidential.

180

Yes, you're probably right.

181

There might not be as much information as you'd like,

182

but it'd certainly be the easiest kind of data to work with.

183

But have you considered using a questionnaire as well?

184

It's okay to get data from more than one source.

185

Absolutely.

186

It's a bonus.

187

You've already done the module on questionnaire design, haven't you?

188

And it'll be good to get experience,

189

because next year you'll have to do something similar for your final dissertation,

190

on a bigger scale.

191

OK.

192

And what are the variables you'll be looking at?

193

Are you going to look at people's level of education?

194

Whether they have a degree, for example?

195

I hadn't planned to.

196

Do you think I should?

197

Well, you might see some interesting patterns.

198

OK.

199

And that'll tie in nicely with my plans to analyse the kind of work people do.

200

Hmm.

201

What about the size of your sample?

202

Have you got any thoughts on the number of questionnaires you might send out?

203

The previous study surveyed 120 people.

204

I don't think I can really analyse more than 50 working by myself,

205

so I should probably distribute about 80 questionnaires altogether to allow for wastage.

206

Do you think that's enough?

207

Definitely.

208

I know that your project guidelines recommend a minimum of 100,

209

but that's an ideal number,

210

and you're working by yourself.

211

And anyway, this assignment is mainly about giving you practice in research methods.

212

Right.

213

And think of ways you can encourage people to actually complete the questionnaire.

214

For example, to make sure that your questions make sense,

215

you should try them out beforehand.

216

OK, that's no problem.

217

My friends will help.

218

Good.

219

Sometimes you get unpredicted responses and you have to rephrase a question.

220

And I know that you usually get a better return if you deliver questionnaires in person,

221

but there'll be too many.

222

But I could enclose a stamped envelope for the return post.

223

It's a bit expensive, but I think it'd be worth it.

224

Yes, good.

225

Some people say that another way of increasing returns is to make the questionnaires anonymous.

226

But usually people put their names on anyway,

227

so I don't think that would make much difference.

228

Okay.

229

And can you give me a bit more advice about the questionnaire?

230

Would it be a good idea to have a short paragraph at the top explaining what I'm doing and why?

231

Definitely.

232

And don't forget, you'll need to get a bit of information about your subjects,

233

what age group they're in and perhaps how long they've lived in the area.

234

So you'll need questions for that.

235

Yes.

236

I suppose that'll mean it takes a bit longer to complete, but...

237

Should I give them my phone number in case there's anything they're not sure about?

238

I wouldn't if I were you, no. Okay.

239

And do I have to use open-ended questions as well as closed questions?

240

I know the books say it's better to have a mixture.

241

Well, it depends.

242

In this case, I'd stick to closed questions.

243

The results will be much more manageable like that.

244

Hello everyone.

245

I have an exciting announcement to make.

246

The university has decided to enter an international competition next year,

247

and we are going to need some enthusiastic undergraduates to help us with the project.

248

The competition is to make an automated vehicle,

249

a kind of robot that will be able to move quickly and accurately on its own.

250

All the vehicles will then enter a race,

251

which will take place here in the U.S.

252

So the engineering school will be collaborating with the computer science department and possibly the automotive design department,

253

although that's yet to be confirmed.

254

What they have to do is try to design an automated vehicle which will be able to complete the course.

255

To give you an idea of how tough this race is,

256

one vehicle last year only managed 12 kilometers of the 280-kilometer stretch of California desert that forms the racetrack.

257

The vehicles in the race must cover the whole distance,

258

without a human driver, and,

259

quite autonomously, identify and steer around corners and avoid unexpected hazards.

260

Things like rocks, for example.

261

It's a challenging task, because there are lots of obstacles of this kind along the route.

262

As I said in last year's event,

263

the most successful vehicle only drove 12 kilometers.

264

Then its team decided to deactivate it because it had gotten too near a cliff.

265

In the race held earlier this year,

266

there still wasn't a winner.

267

But they did much better,

268

and there was one design which we will be analyzing carefully in seminars.

269

Its strength was in its onboard technology.

270

That particular vehicle built a three-dimensional picture of its surroundings using video cameras and lasers.

271

was equipped with seven laptop computers,

272

which analyzed the incoming information ten times a second,

273

and it drove along at a comfortable 55 kilometers per hour.

274

The design details have been published,

275

so we hope to learn from them and go on to make ours even better for next year's competition.

276

The competition is open to all universities,

277

and there's a prize of two million dollars for the winner,

278

but it's really about more than that.

279

The sponsors are hoping to see innovative design ideas that they can transfer into commercial production.

280

You'll get a lot out of this project as well,

281

in terms of working as a team and broadening your knowledge of the subject.

282

The key to winning is unlikely to be anything to do with what the vehicle looks like.

283

Programming skills will decide who eventually wins first prize.

284

The design will need technological expertise in this area above all,

285

and that's what the team who work on the project will need to focus on.

286

I'll be handing out some scientific reports about this year's vehicle shortly.

287

It's interesting to read that even after months and months of planning,

288

building and trials, many of the teams were amazed that the vehicles did what they wanted them to do it all,

289

because so many things can go wrong on the day.

290

So even though no vehicle actually completed the course,

291

they were pleased they got as far as they did.

292

Right.

293

If any of you are interested,

294

this is the plan of action.

295

Keep an eye on the main notice board for details.

296

Firstly, at the beginning of May,

297

we'll be scheduling a seminar to introduce the project to anyone who might be interested.

298

Later in the month, we'll be asking you to submit a short essay,

299

letting us know why you feel you should be chosen to take part in the project.

300

You'll need to tell us about any particular skills that you have,

301

and can bring to the team,

302

and any experience you may have had in the field.

303

Then, in June, we're organizing a trip to a factory to chat over some design considerations with specialists there,

304

who have kindly agreed to act as consultants throughout the project.

305

Then at the beginning of the next semester in September,

306

we thought we'd hold a weekend workshop to share ideas and see computer-aided design demonstrations.

307

We have a brand new package which sponsors have kindly financed.

308

You'll need to be able to use it with confidence before we start.

309

In December we'll be asking you to submit your outline designs,

310

and the following month we'll choose the team and start work in earnest.

311

Okay, it sounds like a lot of fun,

312

but it will also require serious commitment.

313

So please think this through carefully.

314

Some handouts are coming around now.

315

Any questions?
