Jigsaw puzzle

written a memoir of his journey of writing. In my eyes, he has another winner here. I automatically related to King because of his unsettled childhood. King described his memories as out of focus snapshots. I have always described mine as a jigsaw puzzle with many missing pieces. King was generous enough to share some of his writing revelations with us such as: 1. “The editor is always right.” 2. “To write is human, to edit is divine.” 3. “Imitation precedes creation.” 4. “Don’t Staple…

Rosemarie Garland-Thomson the author of “Misfits: A Feminist Materialist Disability Concept,” examines the concept ‘misfit’ through a feminist materialist perspective. She see’s it as something that emulates the shift from a more deviating analysis on disability, towards a material meaning using the relation between a body and its outer surroundings. The argument being made is that through observing lived experiences of disability located in a place and time, while simultaneously viewing…

In the forward of *Thinking in Pictures,* renowned British neurologist, Oliver Sacks, describes Temple Grandin's work as "a deeply moving and fascinating book because it provides a bridge between our world and hers, and allows us a glimpse into a quite other sort of mind." (xviii) Grandin's writings offers readers a rare and luminously clear account of her internal world. Her mind seems to function in distinctly different ways than those of non-autistics, and these differences are both…

stress from school work and lose myself to the brush strokes. In Painting Club, I painted my worries away and focused on my imaginations coming to life. It was fascinating to watch the picture gradually fill up the blank canvas like the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle coming together into an unexpected image.

Figuring out where you want to go and what you want to do with your life is a jigsaw puzzle. There are times when it’s just a big messy pile of seemingly unrelated pieces. Moments where it’s frustrating and difficult to find the pieces you need. Then slowly the edges are formed, the corners get placed and the picture starts to make sense. At four years old, I stared across the worn wooden floor of my grandma’s kitchen. In front of me was the person I had always believed was superwoman. Except…

World Peace and Atomic bombs The question of whether atomic bombs are an essential ingredient in keeping and maintaining world peace is as complex and mind-boggling as trying to complete a jigsaw puzzle with a gun to one’s head. Arguments on the topic are diverse and develop from opposite spectrums of our collective moral and ethical compass. Extremists who are often trigger-happy believe that peace is achieved by stirring deep-rooted fear into enemies and potential oppressors by waving around…

Rationale I decided to turn this lesson into a flipped lesson as the topic on ionic bonding is something very microscopic and I feel it would help students to develop a more concrete understanding of an abstract topic. By recording the lecture which includes a step-by-step guide on drawing a dot-and-cross diagram, the weaker ones will be able to study at their pace and choose to pause or rewind should they not understand. This helps them to understand the concepts better, as opposed to going…

They affect how people make decisions and lead their lives. Every day, we make decisions and evaluate their reasons and results on a case-by-case. Sometimes, we argue about what is ethical in which case and at the end, we run into big contradictions between right and wrong such as on abortion, terrorism, euthanasia, death…
