Assessment

A suitable intervention for children with mental health complications includes a variety of approaches to guide the individuals, including their families and communities, to the best health outcome. The complexity of determining an actual diagnosis from a false positive may be difficult, but necessary if the intervention seeks accreditation. Although MHFA provides positive intentions, there is room for incremental improvements to ensure the intervention is working at optimal capacity. There have…

The meaning of the word accurate is, careful and precise. This word describes me the best because I try to be the most accurate and the best version of myself every day. This includes academics and sports. For sports, I am extremely accurate because every shot or stroke counts and represents me. I will never hit sloppy shots or swim carelessly. I try to do everything right and take my time. I also try to do the best possible job on the courts or in the pool. For example, at tennis practice or a…

The main issue with FOS was coming up with an algorithm that determines the important deliverables of thermocouple systems by using time history data generated from a first-order system. Deliverables include: our MATLAB coded algorithm -which outputs the parameters yL, yH, ts, and � - an executive MATLAB file -which outputs SEE and standard deviation values- and a regression plot which compares the prices of FOS models to �. Determining these four parameters within 20.0% of the calibrated data…

Intervention Plan for Reducing Childhood Obesity The life course theory hypothesizes that adult chronic disease shows the overall lifetime exposure to physical and social environments that are harmful to the individual (Nickitas, Middaugh & Aries, 2010). Obesity is a risk factor that continually exposes overweight or obese children to cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. Fortunately, health promotion provides a platform that can be utilized to implement health intervention policies to mitigate…

This review discusses the article mainly in four parts: the appropriateness of the research approach, the confidence in the knowledge generated, the potential impact of…

1. At the end of the lesson, elicit from the students the stages/activities of the lesson and write them on the board. 2. Ask students to copy down the stages and award 0-3 points for how useful they thought each stage was (0 = not useful, 3 = very useful) and then ask them to award 0-3 points for how enjoyable they thought each stage was (0 = not enjoyable, 3 = very enjoyable). 3. Ask students to write a comment for each stage and give some examples e.g. • I want to do more of this • The…

THREE MODELS FOR EFFECTIVE TEACHING Sadker (1991: 89) in his book Teachers, schools and society suggests three models of effective teaching. They are briefed here. 1. Direct teaching model: This model is effective for subjects that are highly structured, such as mathematics, reading, grammar and vocabulary. In this model, the role of the teacher is that of a strong leader, who structures the classroom and sequences subject matter to reflect a clear academic focus. This model is also called…

1. Classroom environment: Describe in detail the type of classroom you observed. (For example, the type and makeup of the classroom (inclusion/self-contained), what disabilities you observed, the size of the class, how many adults.) The content matter covered in class. How the students were evaluated. Do not pass judgment on the teacher, simply report what happened in the classroom. When I observed Dr. Besvinickm’s class she gives the class time to settle from their previous extra…

Activity One: Students isolate beginning or end sounds in student names. Inform students that you are going to say a name and only enunciate the initial phoneme. Have students guess the name being said. Repeat as desired and also use for ending sounds. Can also be done with objects. Lay objects out on the table and have students guess the name of the item you are saying the name of after giving the phoneme. Activity Two: Have students sit in a circle. Prepare a bucket with picture cards…

a. Questionnaire The questionnaire was in the form of multiple choices questions. There were some questions in which the students were only allowed to choose one option, and there were some questions in which the students were allowed to choose more than one option. The highest percentage was considered as the student’s needs. 1) Target Needs Target needs are an umbrella term which contains a number of important points such as goals, necessities, lacks and wants. The explanations of those four…
