GroverCode : code canonicalization and clustering applied to grading
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)Teachers of MOOCs need to analyze large quantities of student submissions. There are a few systems designed to provide feedback at scale. Adapting these systems for residential courses would provide a substantial benefit ... -
Growing a green job : essays on social movements and the emergence of a new occupation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Professions and occupations play a central role in shaping institutional arrangements, organizational forms, and individual organizations. I argue the emergence and development of new occupations should be among the central ... -
Growing a second skin : towards synthetic biology in product design
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Synthetic biology is a rapidly growing engineering discipline widely used in biotechnological applications. However, there are few examples of using synthetic biology in product design and there are even fewer - perhaps ... -
Growing crack analyses using nodal release technique
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995) -
Growing machines
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)construction is developed in three dimensions. It is similarly shown that right-angled tetrahedrons, when folded from an edge-connected string, can generate any three dimensional structure where the primitive pixel (or ... -

The growing pains of global cities : struggles in the urban environment of Dubai and Singapore
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)This Master's thesis explores the validity of current theories of globalization through the analysis of two prominent second level global cities, Dubai and Singapore. The hypotheses of global homogenization and hybridization ... -
A growing space for dialogue : the case of street vending in Nairobi's Central Business District
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)The tension in Nairobi between the desired modernization of the city and the ongoing "un-modern" activity of street vending is replicated in many cities in developing countries, often pitting the city's local government ... -
Growing sustainable business communities : lessons from cities leading the way
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2014)A new phenomenon has emerged over the past decade in a rising number of cities across America: what I am calling "sustainable business communities." These are place-based networks of independent, locally-owned businesses ... -
Growing up virtual : the computational lessons of development
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Cognitive development is one of nature's most important mechanisms for creating robustly adaptive intelligent creatures. From felids to oscines, developing animals are capable of learning in adverse environments with a ... -
Growing up with AI : Cognimates : from coding to teaching machines
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)Conversational agents and intelligent toys are present in children's homes. This raises questions as to the impact of Al on their development. In this context, we explore how to educate the children that are growing up ...
