...on the internet as a student is very important and many students use this information for papers or other assignments. Without the ability of identifying credible a student runs the risk of basing an assignment around information that is misguided, disproven, or flat out untrue. This is why students should learn how to not only gather information but also evaluate it for accuracy and credibility. * * Describe three strategies that students can use to identify which search results are worth exploring when using the Internet to research a topic? There are quite a few strategies students can use to identify which search results are worth exploring. Firstly, looking at the URL is the most important strategy to me. Looking for ".org", ".gov", or ".edu" in the URL is very important. The website name is also important when doing research, remembering that sites like Wikipedia are not as credible as TheNationalGeographic.com, for example. Most things ending in “.com” may not be the most credible in all cases but there are a few. That is why you must also check the summary or description of the search results. Looking at the synopsis and examining the related searches listed is very important. The summary may show signs of bias, which can show whether the site is personal, political, or research oriented. At times the synopsis may be vague but this does not mean the search is...

...add 0.05 M NaOH drop-by-drop to back-titrate the solution until the pH is neutral. What this means is that, the stronger the antacid tablet, the less NaOH it will take to help bring the acid to neutral. (In other words, the stronger antacid tablets counteract more of the original HCl, leaving the solution closer to neutral before the NaOH is added.) Here are your results: Maalox Mass of one dose antacid mL NaOH used in backtitration 20.0 g Tums 21.0 g Mylanta 18.0 g CVS brand 18.3 g Rennies 17.5 g 24.1 mL 22.4 mL 20.0 mL 19.9 mL 24.4 mL 1.

When people do back titrations, they usually watch the solution for a color change when the solution becomes neutral. What might you have used in the above experiment to get this color change to happen in the solution? At what pH would the solution have been neutral? 4. If you had walked into the lab, only to discover that you only had 0.1 M sulfuric acid available to run your tests, how might this have affected your calculations? Why? 5. In...

...individual interacts on a daily basis. These ideas can be good or bad but either way it affects how we act towards people and ourselves. In some cases we have to take a step back and analyze the reasons why we act the way we do. There are ways we can do this by writing how we feel down, having someone analyze us, or taking surveys. The LSI survey is a way we can see where we fit in amongst other individuals. This survey helps assess our personality characteristics and other traits according to how we interact in society. I took the survey to see where my personality traits rate with other people. I will go over the results and how a person can learn and change from them. The LSI survey is a circle that is broken in many parts. There are 3 areas that the circle is broken into which are satisfaction needs, task orientation, and security needs. The primary part is the satisfaction needs whereas the backup tells you what causes these traits. When it comes to the scoring of the survey I had my highest in the constructive styles 1, 2, 11, and 12. These help with self-enhancing thinking and behavior that causes satisfaction. Number 1 is the humanistic encouraging The Humanistic-Encouraging scale measures our interest in people, our tendency to care about others, and our ability to encourage them to improve.

...7 Signs You May Need a Responsibility Makeover Erica Hopkins GEN 200 03/02/14 Dr. Crystal Sears 7 Signs You May Need a Responsibility Makeover I believe that not everyone knows about personal responsibility. It should not be looked upon as a handicap, but as one area within everyone that can be developed. Once developed, personal responsibility can contribute to life achievements, goals obtained, and more sense of control over one’s own life. This is great because I think there are a few basic things to look for in your life to identify if you are someone who could really use a good look at yourself. Read on to find to if you can identify with any of the following signs. Do you need a responsibility makeover? Theodore Roosevelt once said “If you could kick the person in the pants responsible for most of your trouble, you wouldn't sit for a month.” Good Reads (2014) He certainly would be one who would know a great deal about personal responsibility. Theodore Roosevelt was a president that achieved a great deal during his time. Despite having a few health conditions, including asthma which was considered quite a deadly illness in the mid 1800’s, he created his own exercise routine that is said to have been pretty difficult and included both weightlifting and boxing. Bio True Story (2013) The seventh sign that you may need a personal responsibility makeover is you constantly complain about your job, but do nothing to better your employment situation. So many people...

...Memento assignment The structure What we see beneath is how the parts that is coloured in the movie is played. The dots are where the scenes start and stop, and the green numbers above the arrows is scenes. We start at the end of the movie at dot number 2 and then we see scene number 1 which ends at dot number 1. Afterwards we see the first black/white part of the movie. The black/white parts are played in chronological order. After we have seen the first black/white part we jump to dot number three and watch scene number 2 which ends at dot number two. After seeing scene number two we watch the second black/white part. Then we jump to dot number 4 and so on. The real chronological order would be to first see all the black/white scenes in the movie in the order we see in the movie. Afterwards we would see scene 7, then scene 6 and so on until we have seen the last scene, the scene the movie started with. Because of this structure of the movie you need to follow closely or you need to know before you watch the movie how it works or else it can be very confusing. It also demands from the viewer that he/she notices the little things that happens for example when we see Sammy Jenkins at the institution and when someone walks by and suddenly it is Lenny sitting in the chair. As a viewer you also need to know when we deal with flashbacks and when we just jumped one scene back. Through the story we kind of experience how it feels to suffer from short-term memory loss like Lenny...
