...studentNational University of Singapore MW5200 MSC SCIENCE COMMUNICATION PROJECT Project Report Strengthening student engagement in the classroom. Course: Msc (Science Communication) Faculty of Science National University of Singapore Ganeshini D/O Sri kanthan A0075383Y Name: Student ID: Project Supervisor: A/P Helmer Aslaksen ABSTRACT The Ministry of Education (MOE) recognizes the importance of student engagement in the classroom. However, keeping students engaged in the classroom is a challenge for many educators these days. Student engagement is a contested concept, theorized in a variety of different ways within academic literature. This projects aims to define and understand the concept of student engagement. The purpose of this project was also to find out the usage of engagement based approaches in the classroom. The survey results in this project indicate that teachers do use these approaches in the classroom but not frequently enough. Usage of engagement based approaches in the classroom can be increased with changes in attitudes of teachers, sufficient support from schools and changes in modes of assessment. i AKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank the following people who have helped me in making this Masters Project interesting and a memorable one: Associate Professor Helmer Aslaksen for his guidance and patience. Without his constant assurance and encouragement this would not be possible. Colleagues and friends who contributed...

A corporation ling its rst return must annualize its income if the tax period is less than 12 months. A taxable year may be as short as one day and may exceed 366 days. Under no circumstances may a corporation change its scal year without IRS permission. A taxpayer engaged in two or more separate and distinct businesses may use different accounting methods for both businesses. A grocery store may use the cash basis of reporting sales. In general, a CPA on the cash basis method will never have a bad debt deduction. A cash basis taxpayer may deduct prepaid business expenses currently. Both cash and accrual basis taxpayers will be taxed on a dividend when it is actually received. Computing cost of goods soldand being on the accrual basis are independent of each other. If, in the IRSs opinion, the taxpayers books do not clearly reect income, the IRS may revise them so that they do. Taxpayers must generally obtain the permission of the IRS to change accounting methods. A correction of an error in a tax return is usually considered a change in accounting method. The IRS can require a change in accounting methods if the method used by a taxpayer does not clearly reect income. IRS permission is not required for a change from FIFO to LIFO. The installment method cannot be used unless the total selling price...

...Chapter I INTRODUCTION Background of the Study Our character is a collection of our habits, and habits have a powerful role in our lives. Habits consist of knowledge, skill, and desire. Knowledge allows us to know what to do, skill gives us the ability to know how to do it, and desire is the motivation to do a certaintask (Covey, 1990). Habits are routines of behaviour that are repeated regularly and tend to occur subconsciously. Habitual behaviour often goes unnoticed in persons exhibiting it, because a person does not need to engage in self-analysis when undertaking routine tasks. Study skills include how a person studies, as well as the particular resources a person uses. They are intentional use of one or more cognitive processes to accomplish a particular task. Good study skills include note-taking, reading, summarizing, organizing, identifying important information, and meaningful learning and elaboration (Ormrod, 2008).They are generally critical to success in school, are considered essential for acquiring good grades, and are useful for learning throughout one's life. Study skills are the methods of researching and learning that are used to absorb educational information. It has been widely accepted in modern times that college is a time to learn, experiment, and grow. Academic performance is the commonly used gauge with which to determine whether or not a student has indeed learned what he has been taught. It is the ability of the student to apply academic...
