cultural tools and cognitive development, the role of language and private speech, the zone of proximal development and the role of learning and development. Vygotsky and Piaget saw the importance of social interaction in cognitive development, however Piaget was of the view that interaction between peers were very important as this cause them to challenge each other’s thinking ability. (Woolfolk 2007) Vygotsky views were that if the children interact with they peers as well as adults it will…
Research question: To what extent is the maths behind the double pendulum correct and what are its limitations due to chaos theory. Chaos theory is the idea, in simple terms, that certain natural events and occurrences are unpredictable in their behaviour. Examples of this are: weather, turbulent flow in certain liquids and even the double pendulum. These things can be explored and determined mathematically just how unpredictable they are and under what conditions they may become predictable,…
value and hence showing plateaus on figure 1 [1980]. It was a definitely remarkable discovery featured by a wonderful equation R_H=h/ie^2 saying that the hall resistance is quantized where i is an integer. This equation relates physical quantity to fundamental physical constants, and thus can be served as a standard of physical quantities like resistance []. This essay will explain how the hall resistance is quantized and its contributions to physics world. Two…
Consumer motivation is “the driving forces behind human actions [which] drive consumers to address real needs” (ppt ch 5). In other words, consumer motivation is consumers trying to satisfy a need or want. There are two types of motives, utilitarian and hedonic. A utilitarian motive is wanting a product that can be used to “accomplish something” (ppt ch 5). For instance, the purchase of a washer machine drives from the utilitarian motive of wanting clean clothes.Thus, the purchase of a washer…
of the localized d and f electrons in the solids, the self interaction correction is introduced. Within the LSDA, the spurious self-interaction tends to underestimate their localization. In SIC-LDA formalism, the localized electrons see a potential (SIC potential) different from that of the delocalized ones for which the self-interaction vanishes and whose potential therefore reduces to that of the LSDA. It is known that self-interaction is important only for localized states in the solid. The…
Ultrasonic interferometer Working principle An ultrasonic interferometer is a simple and direct device to determine the ultrasonic velocity in liquids with a high degree of accuracy. An ultrasonic interferometer is used to determine the accurate ultrasonic velocity in liquids. The principle used in the measurement of velocity is based on the accurate determination of the wavelength in the medium. The principle of ultrasonic interferometer for the measurement of velocity is determination of the…
Introduction: Quantum physics, also known as quantum mechanics, is the branch of physics that uses quantum theory to predict and describe the properties of a physical system. While chemistry is the science of composition, properties, structures, and reactions of matter; it is also known as the ‘central science’. While reading the book Alice in Quantumland by Robert Gilmore, one is able to link the two together, causing a curiosity to learn more. It is amazing to see how the two correlate and…
A Social Worker’s Key To Motivation The questions revolving around the motivations behind human behavior have been pondered and theorized by scholars living across boarders, cultures, and even time periods; despite that, many questions still remain. It is probable that almost everyone, if not everyone, can say that they have come in contact with someone, at least once, who seems to have little motivation to do anything more than sit around. Vice versa, it is also probable that everyone can say…
status, responsibility. Black Boy is a memoir by Richard Wright, where he illustrates his status and reputation in the South as a child, teen and adult. Richard goes through many mistreatments and disrespects, the community around him rejects his fundamental rights of a mentally healthy human being. In Richard Wright’s Black Boy, Richard struggles with how to feel good about himself, but ultimately his experience promotes him to be a great writer that unites people through his words. As a kid,…
Abraham Maslow believed that people possess a set of motivation systems unrelated to rewards or unconscious desires. He then created a five stage model of the most important human needs starting at the bottom with: physiological needs, then safety needs, social needs, esteem needs, and finally self-actualization needs. He then discovered that one must first establish lower level needs before progressing up to higher level needs. Every human is fully capable of achieving the highest level of…
