An isotope is an atom containing different numbers of neutrons, differing in atomic mass. Basically an atom with a different atomic mass. What’s special about radioactive isotopes is that a radioactive isotope has a nucleus that decays spontaneously giving off particles and energy. 6. Radioactive tracers are used in science to label certain chemical substances, so metabolic processes can be followed and substances can be located in an organism. Radioactive tracers are important diagnostic…

to recognise that children are individuals and as such will differ in expectation, motivation and learning styles which can be affected by factors such as culture, gender, family, peers and previous experiences. The teaching assistant supports the school and teachers to develop inclusion so that all children regardless of barriers can access the curriculum and enjoy a good learning experience. This may be achieved by providing ideas, materials and strategies, organizing and managing…

suggested that although students can move throughout ability groupings, many teachers find that movement through groups is a cumbersome task and it is easier to have more permanent groupings. It is to be noted that this study was completed in a primary school in London and focused on the use of within-class ability grouping in mathematics, not reading. However, since it is not dealing with quantitative…

However, in the more than 60 years since that landmark Supreme Court victory de facto segregation persists in many schools and a real deficit still exists between the academic…

should be. A NBA player should not be able to make 5.15 million first starting out, while a teacher is barely starting at 30k. A teacher will spend up to eight to ten hours sculpting the minds of the future, not including the time set aside outside of school to prepare. Just to have their students rush home to watch the game. Teachers have to put so much time and effort into the class-setting that they become stressed and fatigued. A lot of teachers have to work two jobs to make ends need, while…

individual lives can determine how a day will go for someone. Even being around someone who had a bad day can make someone else’s day bad as well. As a child growing up, we did not have this understanding that comes as we grow and learn in life.
