The student needs to save time she is taking up to much time using her precision skills. Looking up every word she doesn’t know, and reading every detail takes up a lot of time. She needs to use her technical skills to figure out what is important in the text, and what is not important. The student does not read the whole text. He only reads about 10%. That is a problem because he is not using precision to get the details of the text. It is good that he uses critical thinking to get the bug picture. Reading is not the way that the student gets knowledge. He does not read to do his school work. He needs to use his...

...Student’s Name: Course: Tutor: Date Love, commitment and pure relationship In 1980, Sharon Thompson conducted an investigation about the attitudes values and sexual behavior of American teenagers. She discovered major differences between the way boys and girls discussed this topic. She found that the boys were not in a position to talk much about sex. The boys only talked about sex in a briefed manner that appears it only occurs at different intervals in time. What she discovered on girls was contrary to the boys. The girls seemed to understand this topic very well that they discussed lengthy on the topic with very little contribution from the interviewer. Sharon concluded that girls are more addicted to love and romance than boys. Thompson concluded that romance gears sexuality in a way that sexual activities are seen as a way an ultimate relationship. However, this affects mostly the girls because girls breaking their virginity is considered as a loss while boy’s first sexual experience is considered as again. Boys tend to force sexual activities while girls prefer to take it slow. Virginity in girls is seen as something given up. Thompsons concluded that sexual diversity exist along the persistence of romance thoughts although it is not easy at times. This was discovered from the lesbians interview where they found it irresistible than the heterosexuals. Thompson discovered that girls she spoke to did not have to fight to attain sexual freedom. These...

...Lab Report 3: Effect of UV Light on Microbial Growth Kristin Holmes – April 2, 2013 PURPOSE: The purpose of this lab is to determine the effects of ultraviolet light on microbial growth and the effectiveness of the repair mechanisms of light repair and dark repair on UV damage. INTRODUCTION: Can Ultraviolet (UV) light be a viable form of sterilization and/or disinfection? This lab experiment will look to examine and answer that question. UV light is a form of electromagnetic radiation that is invisible to the human eye. It has a short wavelength and is considered high energy which allows it to pass through some materials. The biological effects are potentially devastating based on the length of exposure and the length of the wavelength exposed to. The reason UV light can be so detrimental is due to its effect on DNA and the mutations that can occur because of exposure. The absorbance of UV photons causes the formation of pyrimidine dimers; these in turn create challenges to DNA replication. While DNA repair mechanisms can remove these dimers, with increased exposure and/or repeated exposure as well as incomplete repair, DNA replication is not always exact. (Aishwariya) UV radiation is typically placed into one of three categories. UV-A radiation is the longest wavelength and has the least damaging effect. UV-B radiation is medium length and UV-C is the shortest wavelength. (Aishwariya) UV-A radiation can have long term effects; however the most damage, on the cellular level...

...was to investigate the favorable and unfavorable study habits and study attitudes of the freshmen students and determine its implications in formulating academic intervention programs. The Survey of Study Habits and Attitudes (SSHA) instrument developed by Brown and Holtzman (1969) was used to assess the study habits and attitudes of the students. Results show that students generally do not approve teacher methods and classroom management, and have inefficient time management. Favorable and unfavorable study habits and attitudes of the students were also revealed. Implications of these findings were discussed and the theory of confluent education was considered in designing a framework of academic intervention programs among HEIs. Index Terms—study habits, study attitudes, study orientation, academic achievement, academic intervention programs, confluent education I. INTRODUCTION A great deal of research literature provides an evidence that study habits and study attitudes are both significant variables which determine the academic performance of students [3, 5, 9, 12, 15].Yet, in spite of the perceived importance of study habits and study attitudes to educational achievement, very little attention were given by academic institutions to improve these factors. This is manifested from the very low understanding level and the equally poor and deteriorating knowledge of many students which is still a great...

...Beck-Gernsheim argue that such choice and diversity has led to a renegotiation of family relationships as people attempt to find a middle ground between individualisation and commitment to another person and/or children. Postmodernism: Study 2 In support of Beck and Beck-Gernsheim, Beck argues that society today is a ‘risk society’, as there is more choice & diversity than ever before. The emphasis is on individual needs and people have the freedom to leave relationships if their needs are not met, meaning that diversity is having a positive impact on some indivduals. Giddens argues that romantic love has been replaced by ‘confluent love’ this type of love arises in what Gidden’s calls a ‘pure relationship’ where the couple will stay together out of choice. The relationship is negotiated and is based on openness and mutual satisfaction. Confluent love need not last forever, especially if the relationship is not working. This is very different from notions of romantic love, which includes ideas that you fall in love and stay with the loved one forever. Postmodernism: Study 3 In support of Postmodernists, Stacy argues that the family no longer progresses through a set of key stages. Families are diverse and so...

...Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis: Introduction The HeLa cells that you have been using have transferrin receptors that line the plasma membrane. Transferrin is a protein, and if the endocytosis of the transferrin is successful, then the cells will fluoresce just like in the cytoskeleton staining lab. Successful results mean that the receptors acknowledged the transferrin and brought it into the cell through endocytosis. The transferrin protein is tagged with Alexafluor448 in order to see the results under the fluorescent microscope. Receptor- Mediated Endocytosis You must warm up each solution in your hand before you use them because they are not very viscous coming out of the fridge. Remove the media from two flasks that are roughly 75% confluent. Add 5mL of PBS, swirl for ten seconds and...

...one but to add to that it must be catered to your own personal learning style in order to be a successful learner. In terms of learning I typically Use First my technical reasoning learning pattern, because I like to try to figure things out on my own first. Then if I need to, I use my precise learning pattern and ask questions or seek help for my professor or other resources. I tend to use my sequence often as well making sure I am organized and staying on task. Confluence helps me to brainstorm and get my creative juices flowing. It also helps me to piece the information that I have learned together because I am learning in my own way. These are my learning pattern scores, sequence 27, precise 23, technical 31 and confluent 27. Sequence, technical and confluent are my Use First level of use and Precise is Use as needed, with these scores I am considered a Strong Willed Learner. My strategy is simple, dive right in. After reading, whether it be to complete a reading assignment, instructions to a discussion, assignment or quiz, I begin to break down the assignment. Of course if don’t understand I may read again a couple of times for more clarity, and if I still don’t understand then I seek other resources like websites or my instructor. I took advantage of my learning strengths because I feel it’s important to be creative when learning new information. For me it’s less stressful when I have examples to follow or...

SALVADOR, JEMELZON ANGGUZ DJORGE SUBMITTED TO: Maam Marianne Shalimar g. del Rosario CHAPTER 2: Rebyu ng mga Kaugnay na Literatura at Pag-aaral And edukasyon ay isang bagay na mahalaga na dapat taglayin ng isang indibidwal. As it defined, it is a form of learning in which the knowledge, skills, and habits of a group of people are transferred from one generation to the next through teaching, training. Moreover, it frequently takes place under the guidance of others, but may also be autodidactic. Any experience that has a formative effect on the way one think, feels, or acts may be considered educational (Wikipedia). That is the reason why, the Philippine government assigns the highest budgetary priority (Article XIV sec. 5 of the 1987 Philippine Constitution) to provide free education to all. According to one of the readings, education is absolutely beneficial for society on the whole. It is a lifelong process to each person that needs to be reinforced throughout life. However, we need education system that may eradicate illiteracy and may provide the common man an access not only to basic education but also to higher and technical education. Education is a teaching and learning process that involves teachers whose function is to teach young individuals and learners who will gain all the learning imparted...

...Max Newman Mth/110 October 11, 2015 Rosemary Hirschfelder Max Newman Introduction The prominent life of Max Newman was an astonishing contribution to the history of mathematics. Newman excelled at an early age in various academics, but most notably his interest in mathematical practices like Boolean algebra, combinatory topology, and mathematical logic. The mathematical practices of Newman revolutionized world history in ways that produced many accomplished understudies after his death. “The work to which Newman contributed, though distinct from that on Enigma, has been described as being of comparable importance” (Groups, 2015). This paper will discuss the early stages of Max Newman’s life, his contributions to mathematics, and accomplishments of his life. Early Stages of Life Max Newman was born Maxwell Herman Alexander Neumann February 7, 1987. Max was born in the city of Chelsea, London, United Kingdom. In 1916, Max changed his last name from Neumann to Newman for a contemporary fit. Max’s father was Herman Alexander Neumann, and his mother was Sarah Ann-Pike. His father was a secretary originally born Jewish from Germany, who immigrated to the United Kingdom. His mother was a British schoolteacher. In 1914, Max's father was reverted to Germany because of his German descent and WWI. In 1934, Newman married wife Lyn Lloyd Irvine. Lyn was a writer in which her and Max had two kids. Their kids were named Edward and William. During the time of...

When you’re in the not knowing, asking questions isn’t a sign of weakness; it shows that you want to know what the right way of doing or knowing something. It’s being more knowledgeable. If she just interacted with her fellow students and teacher more, her work would have been completed correctly. It’s like the Chinese proverb, “He who asks a question is a fool for a minute; he who does not remains a fool forever”. She also needs to actually read her work instead of skimming it. When you skim through something (especially an assignment), you’re not really getting a good understanding of what needs to be done.
