Affirming Strengths Essay On strengthsquest.com, I completed the StrengthsQuest assessment and discovered my five themes: Restorative, Input, Developer, Futuristic and Empathy. At first, I was unsure if the results of the assessment would encompass me, but I do feel that I embody a large portion of my themes. In “My Signature Themes”, a downlodable PDF description of my themes, Restorative describes a problem solver- someone who enjoys fixing or reviving things. Initially, I did not see myself…

Strength All the data obtained from this experiment is plotted on the graph. The accuracy and precision can be determined from the graph. Based on the graph , as the line do not pass the origin , it can be deducted that the result is fairly accurate. Since there are few outliers on the graph , the precision of this graph is moderate. Accuracy of the graph is affected by systematic errors while the precision is affected by random errors. A few measures had been taken prior in getting more…

The book “The Signal and the Noise” by Nate Silver, so far has emphasize the skill of using probability and statics which is a practical art of mathematical model building. I believe Silver takes a big-picture approach using statics, combining sources of data (ex. Baseball), sound statics and analysis, and historical data which is tested by many researchers and experts who have significant roles in the media. In the first six chapters, Silver covers the topics; the failure to predict the 2008…

The Northwestern R-I FFA Chapter is looking to reorganize the FFA Alumni. At one point, Northwestern R-I had an FFA Alumni, which was created to support and promote the FFA organization, FFA activities and agricultural education on local, state, and national levels. Personally I think having an FFA Alumni will benefit not only this chapter, but it will also benefit this community and surrounding areas. According to “Starting a local FFA Alumni Chapter Handbook,” FFA is a lifelong organization…

My purpose is to see if there is any relationship between the height and diameter at breast height (DBH) in podocarp trees. My response variable is the DBH and my explanatory variable is height. All of my data comes from a random sample collected from the Waitutu Forest during 2001-2008. By looking at this graph, I can see that there appears to be a clear linear trend with a positive relationship. Therefore, it would be sensible to use a linear regression model to investigate the…

Only one thing will be certain in the future, and that is mystery. It is this very mystery, this uncertainty about the future that provokes the mind to anticipate and predict based off of previous experiences and encounters. The mere nature of uncertainty forces individuals to actively think and foresee outcomes that will shed light on the matter. In Oliver Sacks’s “The Mind’s Eye,” Sacks introduces blind individuals who seem to be able to interpret their worlds before actually interacting with…

[ ] For my first focus child, to succeed within a big group, she needs reassurance and one-on-one feedback and interactions. It is important to provide positive feedback just as equally as constructive feedback. She enjoys one-on-one interactions and works well with another child partner as well. By giving her feedback such as, “That’s a good prediction”, she is given positive reassurance that she is understanding the content and is doing what is expected. If feedback that wasn’t positive was…

We began our analysis by first examining the data provided to us in the Excel file. We were given the percent of customs who purchased Harry Potter book 7 and what price they paid. We then graphed the data points using a scatter plot to identify a trend. In order to determine the predicted sales for the Harry Potter sequel we first had to use a power regression. A regression is a technique that attempts to measure the relationship between the outcome variable and the explanatory variables, or…
