...the middle of the data set when it was in order. The median of the price of required course materials is $300. That means that the typical full time WMU student who has declared their major pays about $300 for required course materials each semester. For question 7, we used mode to find the measure of center. The mean and median do not make sense to use for this question since it is categorical. Categorical questions do not have a set value, therefore can not be put in any numerical sort of order. Mode is the only way to find measure of center for categorical data because it will be the category that occurs most frequently. The category that occurs the most frequently is some before, some after, so the mode is some before, some after. 4. For question 2, to find the measure of variability, we used the range of the data. We used the range because the scale is 1, the minimum is 12, and the maximum is 21. That means that the range is 9. Since the numbers are so close together, we thought it would make the most sense to use the range to show variability. Also, since the range is only 9, it shows that the data has little variability. For questions 3 and 7, there is no way to find the measure of variability, because both of these questions are categorical questions. Since categorical questions have no set value, there is no way to measure variability, For question 6, to find measure of variability, we used the Inter Quartile Range (IQR) to find the measure of variability...

...to buy but raises the cost of living for farmers due to the lower production costs. Sustainable agriculture causes more human labor, which increases the price of food. With fair trade prices, farmers are able to grow and preserve their land using sustainable agriculture techniques. This allows for better prices for farmers as well as a better environment and crops for consumers as well. Urbanization is the process whereby cities, towns, and suburbs grow as populations shift from rural to urban livelihoods. The rate of urbanization in many areas across the world has increasingly changed over the years. Cities continue to grow; the reduced need for labor has increased food supply and has started pushing people out of rural areas. Question #4 a. England’s BREXIT: leaving the EU i. BREXIT refers to the United Kingdom leaving the European Union. In June 2016, citizens of the United Kingdom won the majority vote, which was to leave the European Union. Citizens voted to leave, for one, because they believe there are too many rules on business in the United Kingdom; secondly, the United Kingdom is charged billions of pounds a year in European Union membership fees for little in return. And finally, so that they can control their borders and reduce the number of people coming to live and work in the United Kingdom. Many people from British Overseas Territories, decide to pack up and move to the United Kingdom for better employment opportunities and better benefits from the United...

...A1. Include visual supports in your daily schedule. The visual supports that I have chosen for Maria’s daily schedule include a group of numbers to signify math, a blue and white “Bathroom Break” image, a picture of the resource room for her resource room time, a music note, art sign and P.E for her different specials depending on the day. I also included a lunch sack for lunch time, a book for core reading time, a picture of a group of students reading for reading interventions groups, a picture of the playground for recess, a molecule for science, a thumbs up for choice time, and lastly, a bell for dismissal. A1a. Explain why the visuals you have included are developmentally appropriate for Maria: The visuals that I have chosen are developmentally appropriate because they are at her age level. Maria is a ten-year-old girl who is in fourth grade. Her reading assessments show that she is between yearend of first grade and beginning third grade level for reading. Because there was such a vast range in her reading abilities, I chose some pictures that had words and others that did not. I made sure not to use any younger kid pictures as to ensure that I was respectful of her age and abilities. A1ai. Justify the use of visual supports for Maria using scholarly sources: According to Child Language Teaching and Therapy, students with Down Syndrome have a deficit in short term verbal memory but are much stronger in short term visual memory. Verbally reminding Maria to stop...

...Relative Thinking and Quantities and Change. In this problem, students are given measurements of two individuals in the unit of buttons, but only one of their measurements in the unit of paperclips. The problem is to find the other individuals measurement in paper clips. For Relative Thinking, students are required to use multiplicative logic to solve for a proportional change between units. It is very similar to a typical Relative Thinking problem involving growth of two objects, however, the change of units makes it also a good introductory task for Unitizing as they must understanding the difference and scales of the two units. For Quantities and Change, students must understanding how the measurements are changing between the objects and the units. The essential question is how much the measurement in paper clips changes depending on how much the...

...Unit 4 Assignment Short Answers 1. Modules allow the programmer to write an operation once, and then be able to execute it any time needed later in the code. 2. Header – The starting point of the module Body- The list of statements that belong to the module 3. The program returns to the memory address just after from where the module was called, and continues to execute 4. A local variable is a variable that is declared from within the module. Only statements in that module can access it. 5. A local variable’s scope begins at the variable’s declaration and ends at the end of the module in which it is declared. 6. Passing an argument by value is a one-way communication from the main program to the module. Changes to the parameter variable inside the module do not affect the argument in the calling part of the program. Passing an argument by reference is a two-way communication from the main program to the module and it allows modification of the variable in the calling program 7. Global variables make a program difficult to debug because any statement in a program file can change the value of a global variable. If you find that the wrong value is being stored in the global variable, you have to track down every statement that accesses it to determine where the bad value is coming from. 1.

...Denietra Franklin PT1420 Juan Hernandez 4/13/2015 Unit 4 Research Assignment 1. List 5 advantages and 5 disadvantages of using global variables. Advantages: 1.It is accessible to all the modules in a program. 2.You only have to declare it once outside the modules. 3.It is good to use it for constants you want to keep consistant. 4. It simplifies maintenance, avoids duplication of local constants. 5. It can make a program easier to read in reference to constants. Disadvantages: 1.It makes debugging difficult. 2.Any statement in a program can change the value. 3.If modules use global variables it is dependent upon the module and if other modules are presented you have to redesign all over each time. 4.It makes a program hard to understand since it can be modified and have to be aware of all other parts of the program that access it. 5.Global variables are not writing direct into flowcharts. 2. How can you declare global and local variables in flowcharts? Global variables are displayed in pseudocode but not in flowcharts directly. 3. How can you declare global and local variables in pseudocode? You can declare variables using the Global, Local, or Component statements, or you can use local variables without declaring them. Here are some examples: Local Number &AGE; Global String &OPER_NICKNAME; Component Rowset &MY_ROWSET; Local Any &SOME_FIELD; Local ApiObject &MYTREE; Local Boolean &Compare = True; Variable declarations...

...Bradley Griffin Keith Warren PT1420 Unit 2 Assignment 1: Homework Short Answer: 1. If the problem is program assignment of some sort, than the first step would be to design the basis of the program in pseudocode to gain a clear picture of what kind of commands will work where, then move into flowcharting to start putting together the logic. b. If the problem is an issue in the code that is preventing it from executing, than the first thing that should be done is to look over the program for syntax errors and logic errors. 2. Pseudocode is fake code. This is where a programmer writes out the code without worry of syntax or logic errors to get a visual feel of how the program should unfold. 3. Input, Process, and Output 4.
