...Meets Science Real Life 1 Science Meets Real Life: Unit 10 Final Project Lashundra T. Jones Kaplan University SC300-09 Professor Morris December 5, 2010 Science Meets Real Life 2 Science Meets Real Life: Unit 10 Final Project With life you never know what to expect, a famous actor once quoted in a movie Life is like a box of chocolate, you never know what you will get. (Forrest Gump, 2000). That was an understatement if you were to ask me! But what most individuals dont realize is that life and science go hand and hand. We use reasoning to denote certain things about people or places. We even use the scientific method to solve everyday problems without even realizing it. Take a look at two of my life scenarios and see how I applied the scientific method to each of these problems and came up with my solution. After that we will take a ride and see why I cannot live with or without science. So hold this should be an interesting journey. As I started my entrance into my home one night after getting off late to find that the light to the front room would not come on. I asked myself two questions; why did the light not come on and what could be wrong with it? Here is where we use the scientific method in our lives without even giving it a second thought. After I asked those two questions I had to do some research and come up with a few good reasons or in science terms (construct a hypothesis) as to why the light did not come on. After careful consideration I came up with two hypotheses...

...Instructional Supervision Plan and Matrix Introduction Successful schools are generated by strong plans and visions. Administrators and teachers look at what they have done in the past, seeing what works, and seeing where they need to improve. Lakota Middle School’s School Improvement Plan (SIP) is written in a way that the administration, teachers, and students know what role they play in the success of the school. Having a plan will help the school move in the right direction. When you do not have a plan, you will fail to improve because you lack focus and direction. School Context Lakota Middle School (LMS) is located in the Federal Way Public School district. Federal Way Public Schools (FWPS) is located in the suburban community of Federal Way. This community has a wide span of socioeconomic groups. This beautiful array of colors and cultures is evident at Lakota Middle School. Our school has children that are American Indian/Alaska Native, Asian, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander, Black, Hispanic, White, and multi-racial. Part of what makes our school unique and challenging is that along with the different cultures and races we have the different economic levels amongst our families. Lakota Middle School is a uniform school. Having uniforms helps in two ways. It helps teachers and staff identify students, and it helps our low-income families with the school clothes budget. For example, students are not distracted by the latest fashion trends because...

Understanding Computer Science, is necessary because of its power and influence in modern society. Learning of Computer Science should be activity based, process oriented, student-centred, environmental based and life oriented. The approach to learning is based on five domains of science: Knowledge domain, process domain, application and connection domain, domain of attitudes and values and creativity domain. But we know that most of the present vocational higher secondary teachers are not familiar with this paradigm. Hence for the first time we are introducing sourcebooks for all the subjects in the vocational higher secondary curriculum. This source book for computer science aims to provide guidelines to the teachers of our state to change their pedagogy from the conventional content-based approach to the process...

...school education because at this stage specialised discipline based, content oriented courses are introduced. Students reach this stage after 10 years of general education and opt for Chemistry with a purpose of mostly for pursuing their career in basic sciences or professional courses like medicines, engineering, technology and studying courses in applied areas of science and technology at tertiary level. Therefore, at this stage, there is a need to provide learners with sufficient conceptual background of Chemistry, which will make them competent to meet the challenges of academic and professional courses after the higher secondary stage. National Curriculum Framework for School Education – 2005 recommends a disciplinary approach with appropriate rigour and depth with the care that syllabus is not heavy and at the same time it is comparable to the international level. It emphasizes a coherent focus on important ideas within the discipline that are properly sequenced to optimize learning. It recommends that theoretical component of Higher Secondary Science should emphasize on problem solving methods and the awareness of Syllabus for Secondary and Higher Secondary Levels 22 historical development of key concepts of science be judiciously integrated into content. The present exercise of syllabus development in Chemistry at Higher Secondary Stage is based on this framework. Salient features of the present syllabus are thus: • Some background of Chemistry from secondary stage...
