She shows the book in two different forms of narration. In each odd-numbered paragraph, the story is narrated in first and third person about Conrad Jarrett. Conrad is one of the two main characters in the novel. In every even-numbered paragraph, the story is narrated using fist and third person speaking about Calvin Jarrett. Calvin is Conrad’s father who also is a major role in the book.
These rephrase the main idea but are shorter. The sentences are also expected to be joined by words that effectively provide transition, and thus connect ideas (De, 104). An example of Jane Schaffer strategy for writing a two paragraph chunk would be as follows; TS, CD, CM, CM, CD, CM, CM and CS. This paper seeks to show that the strategy has been effectively used by Gerda Weissman Klein in displaying the themes of the book ‘All But My Life.’ It is about her experiences during World War 2. Gerda has used Jane Schaffer writing strategy in displaying various themes in the book.
NVQ Level 2 Questions INTRODUCTION TO COMMUNICATION 1.1 Identify different reasons why people communicate To express need to share ideas and information, to reassure; to express feelings; to build relationships; socialize; to ask questions; to share experiences. Communicating it is the primary form of transmission and reception of information. 1.2 Explain how effective communication affects all aspects of own work A good communication help to understand people needs, build trust prevents misunderstanding. When communication is well set up, allows you to provide better customer service, saving time and avoiding misunderstandings.

My mentor is the tutor Paula and my manager is Sam Nolan. 1.3 Describe ways to ensure that personal attitudes or beliefs do not obstruct the quality of work. I feel being aware of how your beliefs and personal attitudes can obstruct your quality of work is a good first step, identifying and understanding your own views. By having an awareness of this you can notice when you may not come across as friendly with someone who has different views and by noticing you can adapt your behaviour. For example, I have a particularly strong anti-war ethic and some clients have been in the army and are very proud of that.
In the following narrative written by Gary sotto, he uses several different literary devices. He uses these devices to effectively describe and recreate one of his experiences with guilt from when he was just a small child. Among these devices used to recreate Sotto’s past are repetition, imagery, and diction. Repetition is used several times throughout the passage of him when he was a child in order to make the more important details evident to the readers. Repetition in this passage is used a not by just repeating the same word throughout the narrative, but by also repeating certain ideas and thoughts as well.
This being said, the study does provide results in which can be analysed and as a result help to aid memory. For example, the results of the study show that chunking is important in retaining information in the short term memory; as smaller the chunks are, the easier it is to retain information. Cowan’s psychological research also supported as well as challenged Miller’s research. He concluded that the capacity for the short term memory is limited to four chunks, which also indicates that the short term memory is limited, but not to the same extent as Miller suggested. Cowan's research also supports Miller’s study as his research suggests that chunking is an important factor in memorising information in the short term memory.
Ultimately, the purpose of studying history is to gain knowledge and experiences that forms “ that elusive creature, the well informed citizen.” (Stearn, Pg.5) With historical knowledge itself, an individual is well immersed in their own culture and identity, and able to understand the values of the current society. When confronted with future conflicts, they use what they know as a guide to efficiently discover the solution. The skills they pick up throughout this process is also greatly beneficial in many other aspects of
Social identitiy theory proposes that people belonging to a group can increase their pride and self esteem, as the group gives a sense of belonging. A group provides rules and norms to each the whole group obey to, these rules are internalized and we use them to regulate our behaviour. The theory states that in group will discriminate against outer group to make them feel better and to enhance their self image. This theory was proposed by John Turner and Henri Taijef in 1979, they stated that there are three mental processes involved in evaluating others as ‘us’ or ‘them.’ These three mental processes are; social categorization, social identification and social
Humanistic psychology looks at positive realisation, it states that everyone is different and that those differences are good as it makes people have different views. The humanistic approach sets out a hierarchy of needs which everyone work to achieve the goal of being a fully functioning person. The Cognitive view of psychology tries to understand the internal mental processes of an individual, associates brains with computers in the sense that we process information and produce an outcome from the stimulus as we process and give an output on the data we have encoded. The social learning theory depicts people as copying behaviour of others when that behaviour is observed to being rewarding for that person. The psychological approach believes human behaviour as determined by reinforcement and punishment contingencies in the environment.
The former includes the phenomenon of the ‘figure-ground contrast’; that is, how we perceive objects distinctly from their surroundings. This can be studied via so-called projective tests. ‘Constancy’ is also a principle of perception; that is, objects maintain perceptual stability through transformations of various types, such as alterations in size and proportion. The most systematic attempt to study the organization of perceptual phenomena is probably that of the Gestalt (‘form’, ‘figure’, or ‘holistic’) psychologists, who emphasize the role of innate patterning in visual perception, although behaviourist approaches have also been influential, notably in America. (Scott & Marshall 2009) According to the Axia college week five reading Perception and Individual Decision Making (2005) “Perception is a process by which individuals organize and interpret their sensory impressions in order to give meaning to their environment” (¶ 8).
