What if you could change the department-level factors that don’t support teaching and learning? Explore answers to this fascinating question and many more with Reimagining the Science Department.

In his duty position as S1 of the 1st Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division during Operation IRAQI FREEDOM, Major Karl Strellner ran the brigade rear command post co-located in the Brigade Support Area. Always within 30 kilometers (but typically within five kilometers) of the forward trace of troops, Strellner tracked the battle during his January to August 2003 deployment, ran three simultaneous nets and supported the Brigade Combat Team in its maneuvers with critical assets and supplies. Additionally, he was involved in mortuary affairs, the tracking and medical processing of battlefield casualties, forecasting replacement troops, conducting risk assessments, monitoring unit morale, safeguarding and transporting personal effects, and coordinating the assignment of embedded reporters. Strellner offers detailed insights into both pre-deployment and post-deployment processing procedures as well as suggestions for improvement. His dealings with the Red Cross, the essential role of the rear detachment commander, his experiences transitioning from Phase III (major combat operations) to Phase IV (stability and support operations), and the importance of expanded cultural awareness training, particularly at the officer level, are also discussed at length.
Spanish fantasy story directed by Guillermo del Torro ('Cronos') with stunning sets, shocking scenes and effects - set in the mind's eye of a lonely young girl. Ofelia (Ivana Baquero) is a young girl in a remote mountain village in Spain in 1944 after Franco's ascension to power. To escape the upheaval and hardship her family faces (her father died in the war and her mother (Ariadna Gil) has been forced to re-marry to a despotic Captain in Franco's fascist army), Ofelia creates a world in her mind. It's a beautiful place though not without its dark side but she's guided by a ghastly yet kindly fawn creature. The Captain, it soon transpires, is more interested in the son Ofelia's mother is carrying, than he is in either Ofelia or her mother. Mercedes (Maribel Verdú), the Captain's considerate servant, and Dr. Ferreiro the Captain's physician, are, it transpires, in league with the revolutionaries in the woods surrounding the army encampment. These resistance fighters are intent on liberating the rationed food and medicines they need. As the increasingly manic and paranoid captain assassinates anyone who looks at him the wrong way with alarming regularity, Ofelia's secret quests set by the fawn creature to unlock the portal to another world become more and more urgent. With its deft mixing of CGI and actual character scenes, political and social statement, Pan's Labyrinth has been referred to already as 'The Citizen Kane of fantasy films'.
Second big screen outing for the popular cult superhero Hellboy (Ron Perlman), who originally appeared in Mike Mignola's Dark Horse comic series. In this highly acclaimed instalment, the mythical world starts an uprising against humanity in a bid to take over the Earth, and Hellboy and his team are all that stand in their way. Can the superheroic redfaced demon prevent the destruction of mankind once again? Guillermo del Toro writes and directs, and Selma Blair reprises her role as Hellboy's love interest, Liz Sherman.
Visionary director Guillermo del Toro (Hellboy, Blade 2, The Devil's Backbone) creates a unique, richly imagined epic with Pan's Labyrinth, a gothic fairy tale set against the postwar era of Franco's Spain. Pan's Labyrinth unfolds through the eyes of Ofelia, a young girl uprooted to a remote military outpost commanded by her new stepfather. Powerless and lonely in a place of great danger, Ofelia lives out her own dark fable as she confronts monsters both otherworldly and human after she discovers a neglected labyrinth behind the family home. There she meets Pan, a fantastical creature who challenges her with three tasks which he claims will reveal her true identity.
Supernatural horror about a group of college students who are terrorised by malevolent supernatural being The Bye Bye Man (Doug Jones). Trouble begins when the three friends move into an old house together off-campus. There, The Bye Bye Man begins to stalk them and appears whenever they say his name or even dare to think about him. Their investigations into the history of The Bye Bye Man lead them to believe he may be responsible for possessing a number of historical murderers and forcing them to carry out their killing sprees. Meanwhile, he enters their minds and grows in power the more they think about him. They decide the only way to get rid of the evil entity is to try and forget about him and keep his existence a secret for all of time, but can they first save themselves and stop others from being hunted by The Bye Bye Man?
Biopic of notorious French singer-songwriter and provocateur Serge Gainsbourg, adapted by Joann Sfar from his graphic novel. Starring Eric Elmosnino in the title role as the chain-smoking Jewish iconoclast who flouts authority at every turn, the film traces his life from his childhood in 1940s Nazi-occupied Paris to his rise to success in the 1960s and relationships with French icons Juliette Greco (Anna Mouglalis), Brigitte Bardot (Laetitia Casta), France Gall (Sara Forestier) and Jane Birkin (Lucy Gordon).
