Then I tried crutches and blindfolded; it wasn’t a big deal being on crutches because you get used to it once you have time with them. The only bad thing was that we don’t have many elevator or ramps in the college. Although being blind was the worst of all, because you can’t see anything on your way, and there’s no signs that shows where things are; in addition the classrooms and the buildings are not marked in braille. After that I tried the 25 pounds weight, and found out that there’s some places were you just can’t pass through because of the tight halls. Finally I came to the conclusion that the college needs more wide places for passing through and more ramps and automatized doors; the college needs an emergency exit in each building and elevators for getting to the second floor of some places like the library or the dorms.
Plimpton 322 Questions Question A: I think that Buck’s interpretation was extremely incorrect. He used modern math to find patterns shown in Plimpton 322. He did not take into account if the Babylonian’s had knowledge of the equations that he used. He did find patterns, but it is easy to find patterns in math, especially when using advanced theories. It was as if he was searching for how to plug their math into ours, not the other way around.
Testing Intelligence PSY/201 08/21/2011 Testing Intelligence While completing the intelligence test at www.intelligencetest.com/, I found that my score was considered lower average. I do find that this information is correct, even if it does hurt to be considered lower average. Since I consider this information correct, I do understand that since I have not had any formal education in over twenty years, it could result in a lower score. Since I was able to complete thirty questions and only answered twelve correctly, this also shows with my testing ability and something that I have struggled with throughout my life. I do not think that the test was particularly biased since there were questions in multiple different areas and
In addition, the degree of participation could range from zero to 100% in different PM stages (Cotton et al., 1988; Black & Gregersen, 1997; Brenda, 2001). Autocratic decision making or sometimes referred to as consultative decision making is the simplest and most straightforward strategy. It is the process by which the group leader makes the decision alone, using only the information that the leader possesses. The major advantage is that it is fast. However, because the decision is made based only on what the leader knows, the quality of the decision may suffer, making it less of an effective strategy.
Introduction I will be evaluating my web animation for Unit 65. The web animation is about 4 seconds long in the format of a Flash file, and is supposed to be used on my website for an electronic musician who goes by the name of Sadhu, aka Stephen Colsell. In hindsight, I felt that this assignment was quite challenging as I had little to no experience of using Adobe Flash, however all in all I felt it was quite enjoyable, and in the end, I came out with a result I was somewhat proud of. Planning As mentioned above, I have little to no experience in Adobe Flash, or any form of animation for that matter. Therefore, my planning played a critical part in achieving a final product of which I would be proud of.
The research will also cover the advance technology that was used to create this massive structure without machines of mass power. Many researchers theorize that there might have been external ramps and cranes to lift the blocks that weighed 2.5 to 15 tons each. Others theorize that there would have only been the use of ramps, and that the stones would have been hauled up. Another mystery of this pyramid is its perfect geometrical alignments. This pyramid has the “designed geometry of an equal lateral triangle and a 52-degree incline”
Almost everyone has heard the term "Y2k", but most have no clue what it means. This research paper will explain what it means, what is to blame, and possible effects the problem could have in the future. Although the issue seems a simple, even pointless one on the surface, once examined, you can discover many separate causes and implications and how widespread this problem actually is. The genuine meaning of the Year 2000 Bug also known as Y2k (Y representing "Year", "k" stands for thousand), or Millennium Time Bomb is simple to understand. It represents the computer's inability to differentiate between the years 2000 and 1900.
PARABLE OF THE PENCIL The Pencil Maker took the pencil aside, just before putting him into the box.“There are 5 things you need to know,” he told the pencil, “Before I send you out into the world. Always remember them and never forget, and you will become the best pencil you can be.”One: “You will be able to do many great things, but only if you allow yourself to be held insomeone’s hand.”Two: “Y ou will experience a painfulsharpening from time to time, but you’ll need it to become a betterpencil.”Three: “You will be able to correctany mistakes you might make.”Four: “The most important part of you will always be what's inside.” And Five: “On every surface you are used on, you must leave your mark. No matter what thecondition, you must continue to write.”The pencil understood and promised to remember, and went into the box with purpose in its heart.Now replacing the place of the pencil with you. Always remember them and never forget, and you will become the best person you can be.One: “You will be able to do many great things, but only if you allow yourself to be held in God’shand. And allow other human beings to access you for the many gifts you possess.”Two: “You will experience a painful sharpening from time to time, by going through variousproblems in life, but you’ll need it to become a stronger person.”Three: “You will be able to correct any mistakes you might make.”Four: “The most important part of you will always be what’s on the inside.” And Five: “On every surface you walk through, you must leave your mark.
In 2011 a research group reported that: “People in a crosswalk simulator reached the other side more quickly while doing a math problem, for instance, than while conversing on a cell phone” (Jaffe). Mr Ira Hyman, a physiology professor from the Western Washington University in Bellingham, Washington, calls this preoccupation “inattention blindness,” meaning that someone looking at an object, while using any gadget, can fail to register the object or process what it is (Ritchel). This is the reason many are not
(3) The total work required to assemble the product can be divided into small work elements. (4) It is technologically impossible or economically infeasible to automate the assembly operations. 2. What are the four reasons given in the text that explain why manual assembly lines are so productive compared to alternative methods in which multiple workers each perform all of the tasks to assemble the product? Answer: The four reasons are the following: (1) Specialization of labor, which asserts that when a large job is divided into small tasks and each task is assigned to one worker, the worker becomes highly proficient at performing the single task.
