Classical antiquity

In most of the cases, if not all, human is capable to learn without understanding the nature of the learning process (Bigge, 1982). However, by understanding the basic nature of the process and learning the way to manage it, they are able to solve numerous practical problems of the control of learning for their own needs (Hilgard and Bower, 1966). In order to effectively utilise and enhance their ability to use both themselves and their environments in a more productive way, the curiosity to…

Developed in the late 18th century, classical economics contains the idea of economists who hold various theories regarding how society works under the backgrounds of emerging capitalism. Though with occasional theoretical variations, each classical economist shared similar thoughts and advanced these hypotheses of former writers. Discussed by the most influential classical economists Adam Smith and David Ricardo, one specific distinctive of classical economics is its theory of wages in which…

Introduction The main objective of this lab is to observe the behavior of a metal block while experiencing uniaxial translation and oscillation in respects to time to calculate the acceleration, spring constant, and damping factor. The experiment was split into two different labs. Part one, the drop test, to take the block to a fixed height and drop it. This would then allow us to calculate the friction force, along with the acceleration of the metal block. Part two, the bounce test, is…

The development of Athenian democracy was influenced by complex social, economic, and military issues, not to mention the obvious political aspect. However, even among these complex set of factors, one aspect in the development of Athenian democracy that stands out and affects all three sets of issues is warfare. Warfare was a constant in ancient Greece, and indeed most of the ancient world. City-states constantly fought, mostly against each other, though they would often band together against…

the road terrifies me, how Josh effected me, and also that I need to figure out who I am. In the article “Evocation of Behavioral Change by the Reinforcer is the Critical Event in Both the Classical and Operant Procedures,” the author John Donahoe expresses that the stimulus occurs before the response in classical conditioning (Donahoe). The car accident caused me to be prepared when traveling on that part of the road because of my past experience there. I think this concept applies to the best…

Thinking Critically – Question 1: Max is doing a study on his high school football team. The way he is collecting his data is he attends every football game and observes the football players. What type of research method is Max doing. Answer 1: Naturalistic Observation- a research tool in which a subject is observed in its natural habitat without any manipulation by the observer. Question 2: Aaron is an all-state football player. On the game Friday he hurt is arm. The trainer didn’t think it…

modern day pop music. In addition to the structure of each piece we studied, we also examined the historical context surrounding each piece in comparison to other time periods. For instance, when we studied the classical period we discussed the similarities and differences between the classical period and the Baroque era. In order to apply my understanding of the material we learned in class, I attended two distinctly different concerts. The concerts I chose to attend were the performance held…

simply goes to show you how an independent way of learning can effect a learning environment. The ability to have that type of learning is something that is very powerful but very dangerous. Throughout the semester, I found myself actually enjoying classical music and the progressions that come with it. I find meditative elements in it and it often times allows me to relax and focus on things. There were many pieces that I was drawn to, but there were only a few that changed my perception of…

Today’s modern research is finally beginning to prove Einstein’s theory absolutely correct. Scientists from around the world have stated that Einstein’s interpretation of the expansion of the universe has evidenced right with “incredible accuracy” and is handling to support the scientists to conclude and comprehend the unfathomable hastening of the universe. Is Einstein’s Theory of relativity really all what it adds up to be? Does it really matter?? The most important discovery in Physics…

Why did you lock up Isaac Newton?he didn’t do anything wrong he just creating a new math discovery called calculus.what is his backstory?how did he create this?,or why would he create this? You may be wondering about Isaac Newton’s backstory?well I tell you how it all went down.Isaac Newton was born december 25,1642 Woolsthorpe,Lincolnshire.He was born only with a mother and a step father ,since his father had died before he was born.Then he was three his mother left him with her grandma when…
