to the problem. COA #2 had its merits based on financial cost to the unit. The requested assets were already in the Army inventory. One of the major pitfalls to this COA was that there was no guarantee that these assets would be available to the unit on a consistent basis. Availability would be determined by the higher headquarters at the division. And finally, COA #3 did not solve the problem at all and would force the unit to accept the critical shortfall.

Synopsis Professor Cindy D’On Jones seeked to find out how different approaches to teaching kindergarten students various writing skills affected how they acquired those skills. Instead of the usual one independent variable experiment, two different teaching styles were compared independently of each other to the controlled, “normal” teaching style. Ultimately, the researchers found that the differing teaching styles did not affect the improvement of students’ scores on the foundational writing…

As of writing this letter, no treatment exists that is capable of impeding AD progression. However, Dr. Carter’s hypothesis that increasing apolipoprotein…

The Arctic Circle in recent years has been the source of international conflict as natural resources are discovered and climate change is impacting the indigenous people, wildlife, and changing the arctic environment. The current governing body, the Arctic Council, and global agreements and treaties are not adequately protecting the Arctic environment.

Among the things I learned is that the project is implemented in the beginning of the unit and should dictate the flow of lesson and activities. It provides context or theme to deliver the different concepts essential for the unit. On the other hand, technology is used to reinforce the context in the form of simulation and modeling as the concepts are introduced and applied in the form of spreadsheet,…

see how many circles they can make out of each container. I observed three students, whose names were Haigen, Emma, and Cohen. The teacher goes over to their table and sits down beside them.
