Chemistry With the Delta G<|endoftext|>

Chemistry With the Delta G<|endoftext|>The Delta G is the base unit of the periodic table and represents the bottom most rank of the elements. The Delta G can be explained as the 'base' that most of the other important elements are compared to.The Delta G can be written in terms of a 'Tetradecagon'. A tetrahedron has six faces and thus provides a very good foundation for the calculation of an element. Hence, the Tetrahedron is a very important element in the periodic table and can be seen at the bottom of the table.The Delta is used in chemistry and has a great significance to the whole of the periodic table. It is the base of the pyramid and represents the bottom most rank of the elements.A Geiger Element is the name given to a Geiger Counter that is used to measure the amount of radiation given off by an element. There are many types of Geiger Counters that are used to measure different elements with a particular aspect or another such as KVY, P-type, HI or ZE.An Aperture Rad ar (A-Type) is a type of Radar that is used to measure the speed of the moving electrons in a beam of Gamma Rays. The gamma rays are used to help separate the light energy from the matter energy.Gamma Ray Imaging of a substance such as DNA Fragments is using to find out how that substance was formed. By using an A-Type Alpha Station Radiometer this is done using just a gamma ray from a Gamma Ray Imaging Facility.The Delta is used to give a relative value of different elements. The Delta in Chemistry is also used to give the mass of an element in its atomic number.

Student Stress Tips - Private Tutoring

Student Stress Tips BobbiM Mar 20, 2013 The kids at the local high school by my house are taking the SAT Test and the ACT Test this week. Heres the crazy thing: a few of these kids go to my church and I could actually sense a visible and material signs of stress in their faces, voices, and in their mannerisms. In sum, these are some stressed out kids. Now, if you take my experience and multiply that by the tens of thousands of high school kids worrying about the ACT Test and the SAT Test, but also the college students stress from their classes the cumulative effect of all of that stress cannot possibly be good for anybody. Certainly not good. Now, Im an expert on meditation or anything, but I have some experience with stress and have meditated through my practice of martial arts. And, keep in mind, I graduated from Brigham Young University in 3 years while I worked 20 hours per week to support my wife and 2 kids. Later, I graduated from a top 5 graduate school while trying to juggle being a husband and dad to 3 kids. I have stared stress in the eyeballs and have won that staring contest! So, here are some suggestions from someone who has dealt with stress and isnt actually very stressed much anymore: Close your eyes and Breathe: Simple, I know. Seriously, turn away from what ever you were doing, close your eyes, and breathe. Breathe for several minutes by inhaling through your nose and exhaling out your mouth. Heres an important tip when you inhale, do not stick your chest out, instead stick your stomach out. Thats how babies breathe. Try it for several minutes. It will help you relax. Exercise and Sweat: For real get up and do something. When you are exercising, you are breathing. And, oxygen in your body is good. And, when you sweat, you are also releasing toxins (dont quote me on that one). Believe me exercise is good. It will help your mind relax. Drink Healthy Herbal Tea: I like chamomile and apple spice, but you can drink any healthy herbal tea. Warm tea will help you relax and the herbs will revive your mind. Go some place high: Go on your roof or on top of a tree or on top of a hill. If you can see the landscape and broad land beyond you, you will gain perspective. And, when you stressed, gaining the proper perspective will neutralize most stressful situations. Pray: If you are religious, then pray to your God. If not, then pray to something higher than yourself. It will bring you a sense of humility and help you realize that theres more to this world than your problems. Give these student stress tips a try. I hope they help you out.

A Pen Pal Exchange for Communicative Writing Practice

A Pen Pal Exchange for Communicative Writing Practice More on pen pals: Start a Pen Pal Exchange project for studentson the Virtual Writing Tutor. For instructions on how to create a pen pal exchange for your students, check out these step-by-step pen pal exchange creation instructions for teachers.Click here for an article on pen pals that students can read to introduce them to the concept of pen pal writing. For ESL/EFL instructors teaching beginners, finding authentic and meaningful communicative writing tasks can be difficult. One challenge is figuring out how to keep a substantial conversation going. Social media posts are often short, eliciting short comments and likes. Emails are often utilitarian vehicles for conveying digital information, with file attachments, or for making requests. They do not lend themselves to extended, deeply meaningful exchanges that sustain students interest over long periods of time. Blog writing and hypertext narrative writing tasks are different, but these are written equivalents of monologues, a type of one-way communication for broadcasting to the masses. And yet, Applied Linguistics has taught us that languages are best taught by maximizing the repeated exchange of meaningful messages with a focus on form, right? Isnt it strange, then, that when we teach writing, many of us teachers focus primarily on structure, form, accuracy, and critical thinking? Strange, but unsurprising because engaging, meaningful, focused, authentic writing tasks are hard to come by. How can we make writing meaningful, repetitive, form-focused, and engaging for learners? Languages are best learned through an engaging and repeated exchange of meaningful messages with a focus on target structures Instead of resorting to 5-paragraph essay writing activities, a discourse model that does not exist in the wild, we can support the development of Basic Interpersonal Communication Skills (BICS) with online pen pal writing tasks instead. Think about it. Pen pals usually live far from each other and so try to convey theirday-to-day lives through letters. Pen pals often try to communicate who they are, their culture, their family, food, holidays, and life eventsthis is all basic, interpersonal stuff!So pen pal writing projects seem really well-suited for learners trying to develop their BICS. The obvious problem with pen pal writing is that it takes a long time before letters in the mail arrive where they are going, and longer still to get a reply. There are only so many weeks in a semester, so pen pal writing is impractical for instructed language learning contexts. It is something a learner might do in addition to an English Second Language course, right? Maybe not. Maybe there is still a way to integrate pen pal writing into an ESL course. Maximizing Repetitions Sending letters internationally takes about two weeks. Pen pals cannot, therefore, expect more than one letter a month. In terms of maximizing meaningful, form-focused repetitions, college writing teachers wont get much in a three-month English Second language course. Something needs to be done to maximize the number of exchanges. A colleague of mine gets students to write messages to anonymous pen pals in their Hilroy notebook as informal writing practice. He collects the notebooks and redistributes them to students in another group on a different day. They write replies or questions, and he collects them back up again and returns them to the original author. It is a lot to keep track of, but the students enjoy it he saysand I believe him! At theend of the semester, he arranges for the pen pals to meet each other at an end-of-semester party. The Pedagogy of Notebook Pen Pal Exchanges For the record, I love the idea of notebook pen pal exchanges because of the meaningful exchanges it produces. However, I have not implemented this activity in any of my courses because I cant figure out how to ensure that it prepares students for competency-based writing evaluations in a direct and coherent way. General, unfocused language practice is not the highest expression of good CLT pedagogy, is it? Here are a few thoughts on my pedagogical concerns with notebook pen pal exchanges at the college level. Later, I will propose a solution that should improve upon this otherwise excellent activity. Not evaluated: Since this type of pen pal writing is framed as informal writing practice, it doesnt count toward the students final score. What counts instead are formal essay assignments during midterm and final exams. As such, pen pal writing reduces the cohesion of a course. Students pen pal writing does not prepare them for writing that counts. Since the meaningful exchange does not prepare students for competency-based evaluations, its value is restricted only contributing only to general proficiency and a reduction to writing apprehension.Feedback on errors:Giving corrective feedback on weekly writing has proven impossible for my colleague. There is just too much writing to correct, so he doesnt. This makes pen pal writing ineligible for evaluation. If students dont get formative feedback, pen pal writing tasks cannot be used for summative evaluations.Feedback on target structures: Students are invited to use the grammar from the lesson, but there is no follow-up on theuseof th e targets.Drop-outs: Some students go missing for a week or two. Sincehe keeps the notebooks in his office, students cant participate in the exchange if they are absent. Some students drop out of the course and notebook pen pal exchanges become difficult to manage. Some students complain that their pen pal is delinquent. the teacher is quick to pair students up or substitute another pen pal who also lost a partner. Designing an Online Pen Pal Exchange for ESL Learners Whats needed, obviously, is a system that can match up students in the same class and or in other countries. Also, there needs to be a way to provide fast feedback on spelling errors and grammar errors, so that students can get help with their extensive grammar errors. Indeed, it would be useful to know if students are writing more than the minimum number of words. Short messages wont do. Finally, there needs to be a way of ensuring that students use the grammar and vocabulary that they learn in their lessons because of the problem of grammar avoidance. The VWT grammar checker robot can help Sounds like a job for the Virtual Writing Tutor, right? The Virtual Writing Tutor grammar checker can already, count words, check spelling and grammar, and check for target structures. All thats needed, then, is a way to match students up and track their progress. Introducing the Virtual Writing Tutor Pen Pal Exchange Project. Designed for ESL teachers, by an ESL teacher, the system can match up students within the same class or from different classes taught by other teachers. All they need is a free account. It can also, check spelling, check grammar, check for target structures, add voice recordings and photos, and automatically score each pen pal message based on criteria defined by the pen pals teacher.

Tips on How to Weather the Midterm Storm

Tips on How to Weather the Midterm Storm Weathering the StormThe young scholars. The creme of the crop. Know-it-all by nature. The future of the world lingers in the wit of our decisions. Doused in our fearless, yet uncertain, egos, our humanity remains intact. And like all larger than life figures, we have our shortcomings and flaws. With this, we fall victim to the infamous “Midterm Misery”. It is the middle of the semester, and most of us feel the peaking of our breaking points. Assignments are getting lengthier and deadlines are approaching..Collectively, we walk a tightrope of performing our best in class and securing our sanity. Stress builds, sleepless nights, cramming and retaining information to apply it on an exams, we become the mechanical dispensers of knowledge. Here are 5 life hacks and reassurances that everything will be fine. Study to understand, not just to regurgitateInformation is easier to remember if it makes sense. Even though memorization seems to play a key part in learning, it has definitive use unless it can be can be understood and applied. You will find that most information can be memorized naturally if understood. Just try it. Adopt a study habit that allows you to use your comprehensive skills. You will see that the memorization comes more naturally when concepts are understood.Understand that pressure can be beneficialHere is the thing. As humans, we are able to perform our best and tap into autonomic responses on cue when we are under high pressure. Referring to Nixon P. Stress Response Curve (1979), as stress increases, so does performance. So what does this mean? When the pressure is on, we tend to not overthink or overanalyze anything, we naturally act accordingly. When applying this concept to schoolwork, we can began to apply the information we learn in an easier thought process. Let your body and mind do the work for you, Pressure is normal, and our bodies are naturally ready to respond to it. So in a way, we are in control, whether we know it or not. Keep an eye on your bodyWe love Starbucks. Energy drinks give us a jolt. We indulge in anything that will help heighten our senses and keep us energized. And though this is ideal behavior for us as college students. We must be mindful that over consumption could be harmful to our bodies. Remember, our bodies are naturally equipped with the chemicals it needs to help us function naturally. Let us not throw off the functionally by drinking too much caffeine. One cup could suffice. Try balancing your meals and getting plenty of rest at night. Our bodies are like clocks, let us keep them oiled and ticking. Realize your potentialThe only thing keeping you from making the grade you want...is you. Okay, well maybe your instructor can throw in a few twisted challenges, but you can top it! We must understand that we execute tasks at our full capacity IF we are aware of the extent of our capabilities. But wait….what if we are not exactly sure of how much we are capable of? Well, give a stab at it. It is okay to remind yourself every now and again, “I got this”. You are in total control of your situation.It is only a matter of timeLooking at your course syllabus can be quite intimidating. But what is more rewarding than putting an X on those deadlines as the semester progresses? The only thing that separates where you are and where you will be in the semester, is time. And as time suspends, we must perform accordingly. Get a head start on a some readings, or pitch some ideas for an upcoming paper. Surely soon, these things too will be crossed off of your “to do” list. In closing….We are halfway through the semester and in the eye of the storm. Brace yourself. Push through. Do your best. Weather the storm. Cheers!!-Kendra D. Scott

Educational games are they useful or not - ALOHA Mind Math

Educational games are they useful or not Most school going kids today are absorbed into the current media rich, universe, popularly known as the, “always connected” world. As Bill Gates (2005) noted in his address at the National Educational Summit on High Schools, “Training the workforce of tomorrow with the high schools of today is like trying to teach kids about today’s computers on a 50-year-old mainframe. It’s the wrong tool for the times.” Do you think of a need to reform the educational system which could effectively prepare students for a much more technology driven, interconnected and competitive “flat world”? Will educational games act as values addition or not to achieve this? Are these games worthwhile to play, or are they are just a waste of time for your children? Well, I think game-based learning helps to teach children important skills for future jobs such as collaboration, problem-solving, and communication. Games provide a practice for students to create solutions and understanding for the very real challenges and risks in a world and most importantly it is always easy to understand and reproduce concepts when learnt with a fun aspectattachedto it.In todays technological era there are certain computer-based games that can boost the working memory capacity which is a basic ingredient of intelligence and academic success. Wait benefits do not end here have you heardabout the video games which encourage kids to be helpful and friendly? Educational games can take on innumerable forms to accommodate childrens learning styles, It is very important for you to keep in mind the way your kids learn while you choose an educational software or game for them to use or play. I would suggest you to choose games like JumpStart,Elementary Advantage 2011, and Schooltown that will appeal to your kids and reinforce the things theyre learning in school too. Here are few interesting online games I came across: Whyville is a virtual world featuring games and activities for kids aged 8-14. The game teaches academic subjects like art history, civics, economics and ocean science. Free educational video games at the NASA website. These games there are mostly quick, casual games of logic, memory, or math. Nobel prize organizations free educational video games. Games include “The Diabetic Dog Game” (which teaches kids about caring for someone with diabetes) and “Lord of the Flies” based on the novel by William Golding. I have had fun playing few of these educational games, so why wont your Kids. Share with us any such game that you think have some commendable educational benefits.

Heres why you keep missing the boat on recruiting teachers ?

Here’s why you keep missing the boat on recruiting teachers ? First, imagine you’re a teacher at an international school. The first few weeks of the term have sped by in a blur of lesson-planning, dusting the cobwebs from your students’ brains, and trying to remember everyone’s name! When you’re not dashing madly between classes, you’re at your desk trying to get ahead on your admin work. While it’s been hectic, you’ve made it through the first few weeks and are starting to settle into a routine. This is your second year at your current school and you have a big decision to make. Renewals are just around the corner and you’re still fine-tuning lesson plans, the stress is real! You’re not even sure if you should stay here…the world is so big and mysterious and there are far-flung countries whispering your name… Wait, hold up ? our teachers only worry about teaching! Maybe you don’t like the thought of teachers fretting about their own future when there are students that need their full attention? But teachers are completely human. They have a long list of worries aside from just their future. The future is as big and scary and ever-present as it is for anyone. Teachers are not immune to a bout of existential dread. Just 7 worries your teachers could be having on any given day: What am I doing with my life? Is this my true calling? Will I retire here and teach the children of my current students? Are the grade twos really grasping the imperative and should I try a more hands-on project-based approach with grade three - they seem a bit distracted? Why is technology conspiring against me! AGAIN! I need to make a backup list of activities for days when the computers aren’t working. I wonder if any of the other teachers are tired of these lunches? If I could teach anywhere… would it be here? Even if my benefits are pretty cushy, are there better ones? Should I adopt a cat, cats fix loneliness, right? Even the happiest teacher is going to have questions about their life and career They might be sitting there counting their blessings: great students, supportive leadership, lovely textbooks, access to tech that makes teaching easier, colleagues they actually like spending time with and a community of expats that are willing to celebrate special occasions by attempting to roast a turkey in a toaster oven. What more could an expat teacher want? (A conventional oven, I hear you say… but no, that is not quite the point I am making). Maybe this teacher has a bucket list, a passion for surfing or an urge to become a Buddhist in their spare time. Maybe they’ve thought about teaching in a country where one, or even both of those things are possible. Psst: Want to know wha 12,618 international teachers are really looking for in their next teaching job? Grab your free copy of Download Teach Away’s 2019 International Education Recruitment Report - we’ve got the answers for ya! Don’t forget that there’s a bit of wanderlust in their hearts Even if your school presents them with the fattest possible renewal bonus, the chances are teachers are weighing up their other options. Schools will be putting pressure on them to sign a letter of intent and they’ve barely just got their heads above water with lesson-planning. It’s a lot to process. Should they stay in their current situation, or follow the wanderlusting heart that landed them in your school in the first place? What if there’s a place in the world where they can start the day by surfing to a Buddhist temple before school has even started? It’s a tough call for anyone in a good situation. Should I jump ship, even though the ship is well-built and sailing on calm waters. What if I dive head first into turbulent waters? Teachers in international schools have taken risks before, it’s worth remembering that they’re used to uprooting their lives, and once they’ve done it once, they know they can do it again. It’s not that they want to leave, and years ago they mightn’t have. But now with Google, they can easily take a peek at the greener grass on the other side…they don’t even have to really be looking. Well, this is all very scary. What can I do to keep teachers? The best move for schools is to be as proactive as possible. You will have teachers that renew time and time again, but you can’t only depend on that. Sometimes it just won’t be the perfect fit, and the Buddhist temples might call harder than you like. Building your school’s online presence so that you constantly have a pipeline of new teaching talent is half the battle. That way when some teachers don’t renew, you’re not stuck. It’s also worth remembering that just because a teacher leaves, it doesn’t mean they’re done with you. They might still see the value of your school and help refer another teacher, provide a smooth transition of their classes and offer valuable insights into how to find a teacher who will love the position as much as they did. Candidates are beginning their job search earlier and earlier This is partly because renewals come around so early. The recruitment season is starting earlier and earlier and with technology, candidates aren’t afraid to start looking as much as a year in advance. Letters of intent are becoming more commonplace. And incentivizing teachers to sign them earlier and earlier is happening too. For good reason. Pragmatic school heads want clarity on their recruitment needs as soon as possible so they have more information to make better decisions/plan their recruitment strategy/tactics. Tech is changing the job hunt for everyone Perhaps the biggest reason for the change in job-hunting habits is down to the technology available today. If teachers have a hard month in the classroom, you can be sure that a bit of FOMO will set in from an Instagram scroll...and some career-related Googling is sure to follow. Sometimes just out of escapism, and other times to seriously check out their options. With information at everyone’s fingertips, it’s important that you’re putting your school front and center. You never know when teachers will be looking…maybe a bored hour on the bus, or while home sick for a week. Chances are they won’t trekking to job fairs hundred of miles away, they’re more likely to do a bit of extensive research on education career sites and bookmark any schools they find interesting. The internet works both ways. Get yourself on Google, too. If you want to have a competitive advantage, you need to make sure your virtual doors are always thrown wide open - that a curious teacher, at any stage of the recruitment journey, can take a peek inside. That if they should google something as simple as “teach in Indonesia”, suddenly your school will waltz across their screen and say “pick me”. Whether they stumble across your job postings/website/social media, you want them to think “oooooh! That looks alright, doesn’t it?” So what’s the easiest way to solve the how-can-I-show-up-in-a-Google-search conundrum? Get your school listed on a search-engine-optimized job board geared towards international educators! Google is a bit of a clever clogs (and yes, more than a little creepy). It knows these are the sites that give job-hunting teachers what they’re looking for, and they’re not afraid to plug those at the top of the page. If you’d like to talk about how to kickstart your recruitment ASAP, feel free to drop me a line!

Colloids Chemistry

Colloids ChemistryColloids are chemical substances that are used in the production of pharmaceutical products. The term 'colloid' can be defined as 'forming when two or more elements are combined into a homogeneous mass.' For example, colloidal silver is a colloid. It is produced in the presence of silver and other chemical agents and are injected directly into the body.Colloids are used to make powders and liquids to be injected into the human body. In the early twentieth century, there was a huge explosion in the use of colloids in the development of medicines for curing many diseases. There were several reasons why the use of colloids was adopted by the medical community. The most common reason was that there were very few suitable drugs to treat certain types of diseases. Therefore, the best method to treat these diseases was to use colloids in their medications.Another reason for the use of colloids in medicine was that they can be prepared in different sizes and forms. This mea ns that when medicines are prepared using colloids, the dosage could be altered accordingly. Also, colloids are known to have a lower oral absorption rate than other drugs. Thus, colloids are used extensively in the treatment of certain kinds of disease.In addition to the above two reasons, colloids have numerous advantages over other forms of medicine. For instance, the excretion of colloidal silver through the kidneys is considered to be faster and easier than other forms of medication. Also, colloids can be used to build up the immune system and thus allow the body to fight against a wider range of illnesses. Additionally, colloids can also be used to boost the body's resistance to diseases such as cancer. In general, colloids are considered to be one of the most effective forms of medicine available today.Colloids are usually mixed with other ingredients before being injected into the body. In this way, the body is exposed to a greater range of colloidal substances and is made t o absorb them more effectively. However, it is essential to use colloids without any chemicals. Any kind of chemical will disrupt the process of absorption and cause adverse effects on the body. So, if there is no chemical present in the solution, there is a better chance of the excretion of colloidal silver through the kidneys. This process is not beneficial for a lot of people.Colloids can also cause inflammation in the body. Although colloids can cause some temporary inflammation, the effects tend to disappear after a while. For people who suffer from chronic inflammation, the use of colloids can be very harmful. The main reason for this is that the body gets rid of the aluminum contained in colloids slowly.Overall, colloids are one of the most important methods of medicine in the medical world. As such, colloids should be used in the right quantities and should never be used in an excessive quantity.

Why is it That When We Want to Get an Online Free Tutor For Math, We Are Often Disappointed?

Why is it That When We Want to Get an Online Free Tutor For Math, We Are Often Disappointed?Why is it that when we want to get a free online tutor for math that we are often disappointed. Why is it that when we are looking for a suitable tutor for math that we find that we are spending a lot of time and money on it, even when we find that it doesn't make us feel any better about ourselves? There are two possible explanations. Some people get hooked up to them and then lose interest, or some people don't feel that they can do it so why bother.The first explanation sounds like being hooked up to a sugar daddy. If you are under the impression that if you can only get a tutor for math that they will allow you to feed them the money you are trying to make then this is probably not going to happen. If you can manage to convince the tutor to show up to your house at any time and make dinner for you, then your hope is going to be up and then off again. The internet and free resources are sti ll not big enough. You are going to have to go the old fashioned route and you may be dealing with some good one on one tutors that will try to get something for nothing.However, the second explanation also applies and I am more of a skeptic on the internet. Why do we need to have another person feeding us money like this? The internet has much to offer that it has been able to do.There are some fantastic people out there that want to help other people. Not to say that they won't be willing to do a good thing if you pay them. There are some exceptional tutors out there that will want to help out their fellow human beings in a truly genuine way. The internet can offer a good example of how one can go about finding someone to help you in a lot of ways. It is up to you to be a good role model in helping others to be a good role model.We all know that there are some bad people out there. They may not want to help you in the real sense, but they will always come along and make things dif ficult for you and your classmates. They may also ask for a lot of money for something that is really nothing. On the other hand, there are some good people that want to help people and they know that if they offer a chance to work with them that the higher the chances are that people will take that up. And they also want to help.You can look for a good online professional tutor for math that will work with you and your students. You can also look for a tutor for math that will work with you that is going to provide for you the best you can hope for. You should look for a tutor for math that is going to have a lot of interaction with you and your classmates.There is also the second reason for you to make sure that you are getting what you pay for. There are lots of people out there that are willing to take your money but not be totally sure how they are going to use it. You will also be spending a lot of time on the internet looking for a tutor for math that is going to help you. Yo u may want to look for a tutor for math that gives you the chance to interact with them that are not paid and not totally confident that they are going to work out.
