This inadequate presentation of the counterargument that supports headphones cripples Heffernan’s argument because the key to any good argument is the presence of a good analysis of both sides and then comes the refuting. Instead Heffernan put’s in one measly phrase that supports headphones while she spends three and a half pages arguing against headphones which makes her argument seem one sided and weak. Heffernan ends her article by further pointing out that headphones are…

of map making and maps itself. I enjoy geography and applying my keen sense of direction to everyday life. As someone who draws maps for fun I have already seen how math plays into the art of map making simply by having to preform math equations to set an accurate map up. In this paper, I will combine my personal uses of math in cartography along with the research I have found regarding the use of math in cartography. The three main uses of math in cartography that I will be discussing is map…

The main focus of education in Flatland is polygon recognition. When looking at another polygon in Flatland, they all look like lines. However, in early childhood, everyone learns how to feel one another’s angles in order to determine what type of polygon one is. Yet, with further education, it is possible to detect the type of polygon through sight recognition. In Flatland, there are two main variables that determine the route of one’s education; gender and social status. If one is male, they…

There are maps that express ideas, maps that explain how to complete a task and maps that are small-scale representations of a large area or location that is difficult to navigate. This small representation is to help the user find their way around the area or location. This document proposes a reevaluation of the usefulness and accessibility of the maps that are on the University of Houston…

geography and explores why maps have always been so interesting to him and to fellow fans everywhere. Jennings takes readers on a world tour of geogeeks from the London Map Fair to the bowels of the Library of Congress, from the prepubescent geniuses at the National Geographic Bee to the computer programmers at Google Earth. Each chapter delves into a different aspect of map culture: highpointing, geocaching, road atlas rallying, even the "unreal estate" charted on the maps of fiction and…

variety of maps because it helps us explain what goes on, on the Earth, see what the Earth will be like in the future, and research why the earth does things the way it does. Maps help us explain the weather, the patterns in geology, and other miscellaneous facts. They also help us see what we need to wear, and prepare for like tornados or hurricanes, even earthquakes. Lastly maps help us research why there are hot and cold days, what the average whether will be in a country or city. Maps help…

dangerous; they create room for several issues to arise such as fear in the learning environment, abuse of gun regulations, crimes like theft, and they do not increase campus safety.” In this case, the last four things listed go on to act as my major arguments for the essay. Each point is not strictly limited to one paragraph, but it is easy to see these four main points stand out as I continue with the essay. I do not say anything in that sentence that doesn’t appear later on, and I do not add…

The progression of maps to where they are today can be illustrated and is closely paralleled by childhood cognitive development. Maps, like a child’s development, went from a “egocentric, purely sensory perception of the world to… [a] abstract and objective analysis of experience.” It also caused society to go from a purely sensory observation of the world to a more abstract and objective view of life.
