Did you know that the most appealing number to the eye is 1.618? This number is known as the Golden Ratio. In fact, our brains are seemingly hard-wired to prefer objects and images that use the Golden Ratio. The Golden Ratio is the limit of the ratios of successive terms of the Fibonacci sequence. The Fibonacci ratio is very close to the Golden ratio. The mathematical ideas the Fibonacci Sequence leads to, the Golden Ratio, and the Golden Spirals. As the number increases, the ratio becomes…

In lord of the flies the survivors of a plane crash are convinced that there is a “beast” among them, as their trying to survive for their lives… first they think that it is a pig head and then they think that is a dead piolet… and eventually they kill their own kind because of it.

implement the experiment, the stimuli used were strings of varied number of letters and randomized color condition or not, which were manipulated based on the experimental design. After all the…

seconds. There was a probe item that measured the participant’s memory for recall, with a total of 60 trials. Computer specific details were provided. The “n” key was used to start the next trial, the “m” key was used to answer yes when the probe number had appeared in the test trial and the “z” key if it had not. Procedure Every participant had to log onto the class’s subscription based website coglab.com and sign into their individual…

Sub point 1: But there are those that are even worse than that. According to End Homelessness, in January 2014, there were 578,000 people experiencing homelessness on any given night in the United States. Of that number, 216,000 are people in families, 362,000 are individuals and about 9 percent of homeless people - 49,933 - are veterans. Transition (signpost, summary, preview): Now I have gone over a few problems, lets examine habitat for humanity and its effort…

Holmium is a brilliant dim metal found in the lanthanide section on the periodic table, which is for the most part appeared at the bottom of the periodic table. This element has 67 protons in its nucleus, which implies it is the 67th component on the periodic table. Holmium is pliable, which infers it can be bowed and folded. It is the foremost magnetic component of the periodic table. The name comes from the element lanthanum. The lanthanides are also known as rare earth elements. Although…

Similar to the red and black chip model that we learned in class, the students here used green and red chips to show negative and positive numbers. This was helpful for students to be able to see positive and negative numbers in a different way, instead of just seeing the negative and positive signs. It was also helpful for students to be able to write either positive or negative in the orange circle, that way they would not forget…

the ones responsible with developing our students’ conceptual understandings of mathematics in such a way that our lessons cater to the meaning of what is being taught. Number (Description of misconception) Number is the predominate strand in mathematics. When misconceptions occur in number, the development of the concept of number becomes more difficult as students lack the understanding of what is being taught…

negative numbers. It was interesting to read about the different responses that the students gave her when she asked them a series of questions. Through this article, I learned about six different models that explained the way the first graders were thinking when they were asked to count backwards until the smallest number. The first model is called whole mental model, in which the students order the negative numbers next to the positive number. For example, -2 will go next to 2 in the number…

and needs. This would in turn trigger the technology development in the target market to adapt to the change. If a company could manage to take this opportunity, then it is rated high with a positive number under “Technology” of “Opportunity and Threat”. Otherwise, it would be rated with a negative number as a threat to the company. Demand in Strength and Weakness refers to the stability of customer source. If a company has quite stable large customers in each year, then it is rated high in…
