Critical Reasoning Question 16-Editorials - Private Tutoring

Critical Reasoning Question 16-Editorials BobbiM Feb 17, 2014 This editorial cannot be a good argument because it is barely literate.  Run-on sentences, slang, and perfectly dreadful grammar appear regularly throughout.  Anything that poorly written cannot be making very much sense. Which of the following identifies an assumption in the argument above? A.  This editorial was written by someone other than the usual editor. B.  Generally speaking, very few editorials are poor in style or grammar. C.  The language of an argument is indicative of its validity. D.  Generally speaking, the majority of editorials are poor in style and grammar. E.  The author of the editorial purposely uses poor grammar to disguise what he knows is a bad argument. Think you know the answer? The correct answer is C. The authors claim that the editorials argument is no good because it is poorly written depends on the assumption hat an arguments validity is related to its use of language.  After all, if an arguments language didnt indicate its validity, the authors argument wouldnt make any sense at all. (A)s not assumed because the argument doesnt concern whos to blame for the bad editorial.  (B) and (D) fail because the argument addresses this editorial only, so theres nothing assumed about what happens generally.  And (E) goes too far: The author neednt assume that the writer deliberately wrote badly to hide a bad argument, just that, as (C) says, the poor writing indicates a poor argument.

My Summer Memories in Elementary School

My Summer Memories in Elementary School As a child, I remember that summer was not much different from the regular school year for my family and I. My parents would still wake me up at 6:30 in the morning and take me and my brother to summer school so that they could go to work. I was raised in a middle, working class environment, so this is what I was used to doing. I didn't know any different anyways. Many of my friend's families were the same way, so, for many years, summer just felt like a season where it was hot and we didn't have to do as much homework as the regular school year. Looking back on it now though, I realize that those summers that I spent in summer school benefited me in a way that not even my parents could understand it.I remember that many kids in my class would return to the classroom in late August and joke around about how they had forgotten how to write because it had been so long since they had actually done any schoolwork. On the other hand, I had spent the majority of my summer practicing my pen manship, working on my times tables, doing cool science experiments, reading books and presenting book reports about them, and even going on educational field trips. We never necessarily learned anything new during summer school, but it did help me reinforce what we had learned the previous school year. I remember coming into the new school year prepared to tackle whatever was going to be thrown at me in the coming nine months.Now, I understand that nowadays, many families and parents have the privilege to stay home with their kids whenever they have breaks from school and I think that is fantastic! I am not trying to convince you to send them off to summer school for the entire break because it will make them smarter. No. I am just trying to get across that when students take long breaks from education, sometimes they can stray off the tracks and start to fall behind. I encourage you to take just a few hours a week with your students over the summer and give them a refresher on wha t they have already learned. You can do things like take them to museums, art galleries, and even the local library to have them pick out a book or two to ready over the summer. The internet is also a wonderful source where you can print out times tables for them to practice or educational programs you can download to keep them up to speed. If you are a high school or college student, I encourage you to do the same thing and keep up to date on everything that you have studied. Happy Summer everyone and Good Luck on the rest of the school year that is remaining :)-Michael Minkoff

Anaheim Physics Tutor Tip What is a Joule - TutorNerds

Anaheim Physics Tutor Tip What is a Joule - TutorNerds Anaheim Physics Tutor Tip: What is a Joule? A Better Understanding of Energy Anaheim Physics Tutor Tip: What is a Joule? A Better Understanding of Energy A common difficulty for physics students is conceptualizing new measures and what they represent.   It’s easy enough to understand meters and seconds since we’re used to these concepts of distance and time.   Other units, however, that aren’t as common in our day-to-day can be harder to understand.   As an Anaheim physics tutor and physics teacher, I’ve found that if students have a strong understanding of units and learn to trace and connect different units, that it dramatically in both their physics understanding and their physics grades. We have already discussed this concept when reviewing the concept of the Newton.   Now, we will be discussing another common contributor to physics confusion: the Joule. The joule is a measure of energy.   This is probably a concept you are familiar with, but not in specific scientific terms like it is used in physics.   Here, energy is the unit that is transferred in order to do work on something or to heat something.   However, this definition is not usually very helpful in helping students understand what one joule is.   Instead, let’s try to get a better picture by looking at some of the equations that include it: Our first equation is one that you will work with often in introductory physics classes which is the equation for kinetic energy.   Here, kinetic energy is defined as one-half of the mass times the velocity squared.   This represents the energy that a moving object has.   That’s why our only variables are mass and velocity.   The heavier a moving object is, the more energy it has; and the faster an object is, the more energy it has.   Now, let’s break these variables down into their units: As we just discussed, the unit for energy (including kinetic energy) is the joule.   The unit for mass is kilograms, and velocity is meters per second.   By squaring the velocity units like in the equation, we get to this simplified unit definition of joules (note that the “one half” isn’t a variable and doesn’t have units â€" it’s just a number). We’ve now seen one explanation of the joule as it’s used in kinetic energy.   However, in physics, we use lots of equations for joules.   If a joule is always a unit of energy, then it should be the same regardless of which equation we use.   Let’s try again with another common introductory physics equation: potential energy. Potential energy is determined by the weight of an object and how far it is from the ground.   Specifically, this is called gravitational potential energy â€" it’s the energy caused from separating objects with mass from each other where there is a force from gravity.   In most introductory physics applications, the gravity we are talking about is from the earth, which is approximately 9.8 meters per seconds squared. Again, our unit of energy is the joule, mass is kilograms, the acceleration from gravity (“g”) is meters per seconds squared, and height is measured in meters.   Again, we only care about the units, so we’ll drop the 9.8 and multiply the units to get our simplified definition: Notice that we got the same answer when using both kinetic energy and potential energy: even though they’re different equations, they lead to the same definition.   Let’s try one more time with a different equation. Remember that energy can be defined as the ability to do work.  As such, we often use equations that involve equating work and energy.   So, we may have an object with a starting kinetic energy, but some of that energy is lost when it does work.   This means that work is measured in joules, but how can that be if the equation looks so different?   Work is the applied force multiplied by the distance it is applied for (specifically the displacement).   Let’s see what happens if we break it down into the units. Work is measured in joules, force is in newtons, and distance is in meters.   However, we already learned that newtons can be broken into its definition in basic units (***see here again for newton post*****). Newtons are now written as kilogram*meters per seconds squared.   This clears up our equation a lot, because now if we multiply by the last unit of meters we get our simplified equation: Which is the same as our definition that we found when using the kinetic or potential energy equations. For fun, you can also think about the famous physics equation (that is not often used in introductory physics classes) of E=mc2.   This equation is also for energy, and is measured in joules.   Here, “c” is the speed of light, which â€" since it’s a speed â€" is measured in meters per second.   See what you get if you break this equation into its fundamental units and if it is the same as our definitions above. Learning how these new units can be broken down into fundamental units can help with your understanding of physics and your execution of equations when taking tests or solving problems.   Take the time to break up your equations into fundamental units and you may be surprised at how related many of them are.

Mistakes are the portals of discovery - ALOHA Mind Math

Mistakes are the portals of discovery All parents have different ways of dealing with children’s mistakes. One of the common approaches nowadays it to make light of them, so as not to affect the child’s psyche by pointing them out too much. It is debatable whether this is the best way to prepare a child to face the future and bigger challenges in life. Experts in child development suggest that it is better to let children understand mistakes and figure out a way to resolve the issue themselves. We as parents would probably be surprised by the inventive problem solving skills that this leads to. It is also a great natural method of improving the intelligence and IQ of a child, since it helps the child figure what the problem is all about, rather than just learning from rote. Once such an outlook is fostered in the child, give him a math problem, and he will strive at arriving at the solution despite making mistakes. Such a practice enables children to be more independent with their homework. Along with encouraging a child to be independent and learn from their mistakes, it is also equally important to praise their efforts. Developmental theories show that children may have different learning styles, and each one may take their own time to handle such an approach.By enabling your child’s self-efficacy, you will be preparing and encouraging him/her to be his/her own person and handle even high-stress situations with confidence. When faced with a situation such applying for as a scholarship, such a child will not back away or be worried about failure, but will think of applying multiple times to succeed. To put all that in a nutshell, we need to Give children the space to learn from their own mistakes and not jump in to do everything for them. Not harp on earlier mistakes, but discuss the one at hand and what might have gone wrong, so that the child gets a hint of what went wrong and to correct themselves. Encourage and praise children when they solve problems on their own. Support their independence by letting them treat their mistakes as stepping stones. Abacus is a great way to improve your child’s confidence and to improve his mental math abilities which in turn will have a positive impact on his attitude to learning too.

Language Teachers Improved Courses and Scheduling

Language Teachers Improved Courses and Scheduling Over the last few months, weve taken in feedback from both students and teachers about how the Language Teachers and Language Courses work. Were now releasing a set of changes, based on your feedback, to make the system easier and more useful. In the next two blog posts well tell you what you need to know about these changes. New Scheduling System We have made a number of changes to the scheduling system with the goal of making it easier for students and teachers to match up. When requesting a session, students are required to select an available time from the teachers calendar. Teachers now set a schedule which shows when they are available. When students try to book a session with the teacher, they must choose from those times. This helps avoid the situation where students schedule a lesson for a time when the teacher is asleep. Therefore, it is critical that teachers update their calendars with all possible available times. If a teacher has no available times, students will not be able to request a lesson with them. In addition, students must request sessions at least 24 hours in advance. This gives teachers enough time to respond and prepare for a lesson. Teachers will allow be able to set vacation times, or dates when they know they will not be able to teach classes. (We will be sending a message to your inbox with a full list of changes.) Language Courses We have also made some initial changes to the way Language Courses are handled. Eventually, we hope Language Courses will give teachers a way of showing off specific classes or skills that they can teach. Likewise, we hope it is a way for students to find a specific teacher or structured teaching plan that fits their goals. Notably, if a student wants help on test preparation, translation, or business vocabulary, this would be the place for students to browse. We are still making many improvements, and we are definitely interested in hearing your suggestions about how to improve Language Courses, the scheduling system, or anything else about the website. Please feel free to send us ideas through our feedback form or via email at (feedback at italki dot com).

Is There Really Such a Thing As Chemistry Free Response Answers?

Is There Really Such a Thing As Chemistry Free Response Answers?Is there really such a thing as chemistry free response answer tests? As in other areas of school, some students find these types of tests necessary for success. When the teacher asks for a free response test and you do not have an answer to the question, you are usually given one of two choices - to explain the answer or not to answer at all.So is chemistry free response answer testing fair? Of course not! That is why these types of tests are used in some schools.In some cases, you will have the option to take the science test over again. This is called a repeated-measures design. This type of test is based on the theory that your score will go up the more times you take the test and the more ways you cover questions. It is kind of like if you are allowed to take more tests than you should, but those tests are not too difficult.Another type of test may be given in which you will do the work during the whole day. In this type of test, there are no breaks for lunch, so the only break you get is if you take time to read the lesson.If you are an adult who is thinking about taking the AP Chemistry free response tests, you should not rush into it. It can be very draining, and time consuming. Take your time, make sure you know what you need to do and make sure you do your best.The great thing about taking an AP Chemistry free response test is that it can help you prepare for AP exams, especially if you are taking them for the first time. Knowing what to do can really help you achieve your goal.So to summarize, the best answer is that there is no such thing as chemistry free response test. The only option you have is to wait until you receive the instruction booklets and start studying!

Achieving Your Goals With Coaching and Tutoring Orphans

Achieving Your Goals With Coaching and Tutoring OrphansCoaching and tutoring orphans in different countries across the world is one of the most helpful ways for many reasons. There are lots of financial benefits, that would be enjoyed by everyone, by teaching the orphans.Teaching the orphans in an early childhood development program would empower them to have a well-rounded education. If they attend an international school, they would get more exposure to the language they speak and acquire other related skills and knowledge which could have benefits for their future as well.Many families have to worry about their children's living a normal life, without the presence of their mom or dad around. An international school is the best place to spend the summer for these children who have to spend their time attending school to gain education and other skills for themselves. Many kids enroll in a middle school or high school but it is better to send them to an international school where th ey will have the chance to interact with adults as well.Most of the schools offer successful development programs for orphans and also international students. By sending the child to the school, you are not only helping him develop skills but you are also boosting his confidence and self-esteem.The international school could be situated at a far place or near the place of your home. Even if it is a distant place, you can keep the child around you to build a relationship and friendship with the person teaching him. You can ask other parents who have enrolled their kids in the school for referrals.It is not necessary to ask the parents for the names of the parents because there is no harm in doing so. If you get referrals, it is easy to contact the family members and get in touch with them.A lot of parents think that sending their child to an international school is going to be too expensive. However, this is not true. This can be very helpful in educating your child in a particular l anguage.

Organic Chemistry Tutor Uniform Circular Motion

Organic Chemistry Tutor Uniform Circular MotionThere is a buzz going around about the organic chemistry tutor uniform circular motion. This story is mostly coming from the internet. Although it may have to do with running a business. It is not a bad story, and should be looked at.To be honest, I have not seen anything from a chemical manufacturing company that is as exciting as the circular motion and the sort of thing that is discussed in the news today. There are a number of websites that deal with the demonstrations that show that this uniform has been worn by chemists all over the world for the last few years. The uniforms are not designed for just anyone to wear.The material that the uniform has been created out of is a material that will keep the ball moving. Once the ball is in the rotation state it is then plated on the uniform that is visible. This plating is then bonded onto the uniform to make it circular motion. The ball can still move, or it can stop moving.How the ball makes its circle and stops the rotation is unclear, but it is certainly impressive. When I saw this story, I thought that the story was very different from the dress styles that have been available for the last several years.There are other things about the uniform that are interesting. The uniform is water resistant. The ball comes in a green/blue color, which is the color of the earth. The ball is not part of the uniform.The uniform circular motion is available at several web sites, and retail stores. The cost of the uniform varies, but the prices are not unreasonable. It is not known to me if this is the only uniform out there, but it appears to be the only one of its kind. If you have not checked it out you may want to consider checking it out.This uniform circular motion is not designed for mass consumption, or a person who has not seen a uniform circular motion. This uniform is a demonstration for the purpose of being shown off at a few events and for making some friends. The uniform will be used in a few events and then disappeared.
