...Teach Like A Pirate Part 1 of Teach Like a Pirate is divided into 6 sections: Passion, Immersion, Rapport, Ask and Analyze, Transformation, and Enthusiasm. Passion can be divided into content passion, professional passion and personal passion. A teacher who is fully immersed in the moment has a special type of intensity that resonates with great power in the classroom, regardless of the activity. Building rapport is all about interacting with your students as fellow human beings, not just subordinates. Rapport is important because it helps create buy-in. Ask and Analyze says that if you consistently ask questions that lead to creative and outside-the-box thinking, your mind will provide you with creative and outside-the-box answers. The Honda Odyssey example is so true! Transformation deals with reframing. A teachers job is to create a mental paradigm shift by reframing the content and its value and relevancy to their lives. Enthusiasm is contagious. Your attitude carries with it your single most powerful tool to influence your classroom. Part 2 of Teach Like a Pirate discusses crafting engaging lessons. I learned many ideas from Dave Burgess’ hooks. I liked “Move It, Move It”. It encourages kinesthetic activities in the classroom. We do a lot of music and movement in Kindergarten. I have also used the “People Prop” hook by having groups make human letters with their bodies. (ex: making the letter A by laying on the floor) The “Picasso” hook is used...

...Green Mountain Resort Case Study HRMG314 – Managing Organizational Change Green mountain resort was a small resort that was not expected to be in business very long. The resort manager had other plans, as part owner he had visions of making Green Mountain Resort a first-class resort. The issue he faced with achieving his vision was the resorts turnover problem. He had tried many different strategies to reduce turnover including focusing on streamline training, simplify jobs, don’t become dependent on individuals, and making HR processes more efficient (Palmer, Dunford, & Akin, 2009, p. 40). Despite his efforts his turnover problem still existed, he would lose the best service people and be left with the poorest performers. Gunter held the director image when managing turnover. Since he was the manager and part owner he was directing the organization in a particular way hoping to change the outcome of the turnover (Palmer, Dunford, & Akin, 2009, p.27). The hospitality literature took on the image of a coach. This literature was used to try and shape the organization to be successful (Palmer, Dunford, & Akin, 2009, p.30). The focus was highlighting the training and management development showcasing their capabilities. The consultant took on the role as an interpreter. The consultant listened to the problem and the previous attempts to fix the problem and was able to assist with making sense of the outcome and refocus Gunter...

...Techniques on getting people to like you Today I am going to share on how to get people to like you. Or more exact, I am going to teach you on how to make your best first impression. I will give you numerous way to make people to like you and I will be covering on rapport building, mirroring, matching, representational systems and rapport mistakes. The first technique we are going to cover is rapport building. The definition of rapport is the development of a close and harmonious relationship in which two or more people understand each other and can communicate well. Most people try to build rapport by being nice to someone, followed by a sharing of common experiences. By doing this you’re saying, people like people like themselves, and these are the reasons I’m like you. These common techniques can work some of the time but definitely not all of the time. Building Rapport is normally the difference between getting someone to quickly like you, or not. I’ll teach you know what to look for and how to effortlessly gain rapport with anyone. When you are with someone you trust, you may not notice, but you are naturally mirroring him or her. Mirroring is defined as when you copy someone else’s behavior; their movement, body position, hand gestures, tone of language, etc. A clear example of mirroring is seen when a couple naturally completes each other’s sentences. They are so in tune they actually seem to read the others thoughts. What most people do not realize is that mirroring...

...Effect of Molecular Weight on the Rate of Diffusion Olive Kristianne C. Quicoy Group 4 Sec. Y-5L October 7, 2015 ------------------------------------------------- A scientific paper submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements in General Biology 1 laboratory under Ma’am Joan Christine O. Adajar, 1st sem., 2015-2016 ABSTRACT The relationship of molecular weight and rate of diffusion was determined using three colored substances with different molecular weights, namely Potassium permanganate, Potassium dichromate and Methylene Blue. A water-agar gel in a petri dish was used to be able to observe the movement of the particles of each substance. Potassium dichromate had the fastest rate of diffusion among the three substances. Thus, the smaller the molecular weight, the faster the rate of diffusion. INTRODUCTION The movement of molecules from the area of higher concentration to the area of lower concentration is called diffusion (Mader & Windelspecht, 2013). Diffusion is observed when cooking pasta, a helium balloon deflates, drinking hot tea, and in many other situations in our daily lives, thus understanding it is important. A lot of factors affect the diffusion of particles, such as time and molecular weight. Molecules of smaller mass diffuse faster than those with larger mass (Robinson and Hotzclaw, 1988). If this is so, then the smaller the molecular weight, the faster the rate of diffusion. To observe how time and molecular weight affects the rate of diffusion...

...Case Study : Morton Salt 1. Briefly describe salt production, from brine production to finished round cans. Salt is obtained by introducing water into salt caverns which in turn dissolves the salt deposits within the caverns, allowing the salt solution (brine) to be brought to the surface for further processing. The brine is boiled in order to remove most of the liquid, resulting in salt crystal deposits. The salt crystal deposits are then further dried to remove all residual moisture to produce the final product; salt. The finished product is stored within a silo awaiting production. The round cans used for packaging salt are produced on-site. The cans are produced by gluing two sheets of chip board and rolled into a continuous tube. The tube is then cut into long sections and then cut again into can-size pieces. The finished pieces are moved on conveyor to where the various parts can be assembled into cans and glued. Once the cans are formed, they are filled with salt and the pour spout is added to the can. Once completed, the finished cans containing salt are loaded onto pallets and placed into inventory awaiting shipping to distributors. 2. Briefly describe quality assurance efforts in round can production. Quality is checked primarily by visual inspection including verifying the assembly was done correctly, checking the filled cans for correct weight, inspecting cans to ensure labels are correctly aligned, and checking to see whether metal pour spouts are correctly...

...FROM FOOD TO WAR From seasoning their food to conquering nations, salt had many uses in Biblical times. Nowadays when people hear salt they think of salting their food or melting the ice on their steps, but it has many other uses both now and in Biblical times. Believe it or not salt is mentioned 40 times in the King James Version of the Bible. One of which is Luke 14:34, which states as follows, “Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted.” It was very useful in culture and the military, impacting both the everyday lives of the people and the lives of the soldiers. A big use of salt in culture was with food. Salt was of extreme abundance in Israel and the surrounding area and was a common item in households. Even the poorest were familiar with it and used it. The people there used it to season their food similarly to how we do today. The people would season their food before cooking it. Unlike modern times, the people in biblical times did not have the table salt like we have today but used a different, more natural form. Also like modern times, the people used it to preserve their food. In the heat of the Middle East, it was easy for the meat and other foods to spoil, but the natural minerals found in salt would protect it temporarily from the heat....

...IB Chemistry Lab Report Design Example— Effect of Temperature on Solubility of Potassium Chloride in Water Research question How does temperature affect the solubility of potassium chloride in water? Hypothesis As the temperature of water increases, the particles of solid Potassium chloride, KCl, which are absorbing energy from its surrounding, start moving more easily between the solution and its solid state because. According to the second law of thermodynamics, the particles will shift to the more disordered, more highly dispersed solution state. I predict that as the temperature of a KCl and water mixture increases, then the solubility of the KCl will also increase. Variables Dependant variable The dependant variable will be the solubility of Potassium chloride in water that will be calculated at different temperatures. The solubility will change as temperature increases. Independent variable The control variables need to be constant in order to get valid and accurate results. The temperature of the solutions. Controlled variables The volume of distilled water used to dissolve Potassium chloride in each beaker The amount of Potassium chloride deposited into each beaker. The volume of the solution extracted by the syringe.

...OBSERVATION: During the winter, you spread salt daily on your driveway to melt the snow. In the springtime, when the lawn begins to grow, you notice that there is no grass growing for about three inches from the driveway. Furthermore, the grass seems to be growing more slowly up to about one foot from the driveway. QUESTION: I wonder if the grass growth is inhibited by salt? INTRODUCTION: Salt is a chemical compound (NaCl), or Sodium Chloride. Sodium Chloride has many uses in everyday life, such as in our bodies, in our food, and on our road ways. Having two elements, Sodium and Chloride, each have a number of jobs to do in our bodies. Salt is found in many of our foods naturally, from fish to vegetables, as well as being used for cooking and at the table. Also salt is used all over the world when it snows to prevent slip and falls and car accidents by it being sprinkled on sidewalks and road ways to melt the ice. When salt hits water or ice it lowers the freezing point in an effect known as freezing point depression and melting it in the process. According to (greenergreengrass.com) salt can also affect the pH of soil and can create an unsuitable environment for grass and plants to grow. HYPOTHESIS: The grass that gets exposed to more salt will not grow as much as the grass that gets exposed to little or no salt. PREDICTION: If the grass is exposed to salt then it will not grow as fast as the grass that is not exposed to salt at all. CONTROLLED EXPERIMENTAL METHOD: ...
