hearing. Defining the problem is when you identify a conflict that requires a solution to be solved. A hypothesis is a proposed explanation based on the evidence and observation. Testing the hypothesis is when we experiment and try to prove that our theory is correct. Gathering evidence is the process of recording the information gathered during the experiment. It includes quantitative…
We would like to start by introducing our group which consists of Salome Fregoso, Roxanne Wagstaff, Andrea Lopez, Mehwish Kazi and Angel Mejia, we named our group the Avengers. For our first group assignment we were asked to pick a topic from the three provided on blackboard. We chose option one which is about theories. Our assignments were to interview three parents of children ages 12 months - 5 years and ask them to share some stories about their children and about themselves when they were a…

There are many reasons as to why groups experience conflict but one business I want to highlight refers to conflict within the organizational structure. "Good introductory paragraph Organizational…
mathematics curriculum to compare the representation of multi-digit number magnitudes, which will have the effect of expanding the understanding levels. Ultimately, my investigations into the cognitive science of numerical representation lead to two major theories. First, I argue for building up accurate estimation skills and corresponding representation models to help low-performed students. My future research will continue in this pursuit to determine additional factors can influence change in…
remember? What effect has the group experience had on your life? How did your thinking process differ from the other group members? Now, take a moment, to work on phrases that capture how you are feeling about our work together. In addition, what will you take away ‘beneficial’ from your time in the group?

In following the order of participation; we had to keep in mind that, “whenever people are together in face-to-face groups, they are communicating. Even if they are not…
addresses those impediments that can prevent a group of people from working effectively and efficiently together towards a goal. My experience as a member of a Cornerstone formation team last year exemplifies how those obstacles make team work almost impossible and definitely unpleasant. I will summarize that experience and evaluate it in terms of the five dysfunctions explained in the book, ending with my assessment and recommendation on how our group could have overcome the dysfunctions we…

In theory, Madison wanted groups to come together to create policy together with the greater good of man in mind. Unfortunately, Madison feared that…
Architectural elements harmonize and organize architecture. Without order confusion can set in, using architecture elements and principles there will be order and harmony.

Both buildings have elements and principles of architecture that will we…
Understanding of multiplication facts is essential to have down by fourth grade. Knowing the times tables and being able to fluently recall immediately is needed throughout the entire year because of PA Mathematics Standards beginning with multiplication of multidigit numbers. There were students in my fourth grade classroom that had yet to be fluent with their multiplication facts, and it was necessary for them to have it down, for everyday mathematics and for the PSSA’s. I discussed with my…
