be valued or construct to get detailed characteristics of a person. As we cannot physically see the traits, there will be a question about is it really there or true? Scientists made some interference about people and how they are like and such measurement are hypothetical most of the times. Smith (2005) was explaining in his study that even though those theoretical theories are there, it is necessary to make sure they are measure “in a convincing, valid way” (P. 396). Validity is important and…
Response Essay: How Measurement Fails Doctors and Teachers This essay will cover the topic of measurement and analytics in the medical and educational sectors and how it is negatively impacting each one respectively. I personally agree with the writer’s viewpoint and feel as though our current methods of measurement in both the healthcare and educational fields are incorrect; with issues and metrics of greater importance being overlooked due to an excessive amount of measurement. However, the…
elements: an X-ray tube, a sample holder, and an X-ray detector. The different annealing time will cause different microstructure, and people can summarize the change rule of the annealing time vs. structure. Result and Discussion Thicknesses measurement data Group 1: 12156.525 Å Group 3: 15074.94…
seems like a simple concept for adults, Battista (2006) claims measurement can be a difficult concept for children to understand. A common misconception in measurement is the students’ misreading the scale on a ruler, as they do not know “whether to count the marks or the spaces” (Averill & Harvey, 2010, p. 106), or whether to start from the one or the zero. It is merely a misunderstanding of the meaning of the concept of measurement. If students are asked to measure 7cm on a ruler, students…
Part #1.- Adian and I created a carrier for two Ping-Pong balls that look like pair of glasses. To make this model we used four rectangular prisms and a cube. We used two long and skinny rectangular prisms to make the two temples of the glasses, and we used two rectangular prisms to make the two lenses. Then, we made a cube to be the bridge of the pair of glasses. We selected these shapes because when put together they resemble a pair of glasses, and we were familiar with the shapes. We also…
measuring the gravity. I found this experiment to be very interesting since I’ve seen and used pendulums a lot before, but I have never really reflected on why they oscillate. After this lab and understanding of the theory, I even know how to relate measurements to figure out the force of gravity. That is why I love physics, everything is related which makes it possible to explain phenomena seen in the everyday life.…
The Human Resources department plays an integral part in an organization functionality, strengthening the organizations foundation and pathways to its goals. The department’s strategic actions and employee engagement can boost business with rigorous metrics improving the workforce. Making the use of strategies and planning a necessary part of an organizations success. The Human Resources department needs to determine what measurement’s should be utilized and collected to achieve optimal success.…
10/15/15: Today my experiment was approved. I plan to start on the 18th. 10/18/15: Today was the start date of my experiment. Today I performed the bulk of the procedure. First, I gathered all of the materials. Then, I put 147mL of soil in each of the cups and marked each cup. Next, I did level one (100 W) for 30 seconds in the microwave. Coming out of the microwave they were about the same temperature and texture. For level 5 (500 W), the grass seeds were in the microwave for 30 seconds and…
Measure the Immeasurable: The World of Smell and Taste (“MIM”). This ten-point checklist has been applied against Six Sigma project case studies. MIM is not a case study by definition, but more of a look at industries’ use of new electronic measurement techniques and the influence they can have on and the opportunities they present to companies and teams using the DMAIC. More specifically, MIM explores the food and drink industries’ primary soft critical-to process elements, smell and taste,…
Basic Rhetoric Analysis of Science Fair Fun Booklet The purpose of this memo is to analyze the booklet titled Science Fair Fun, written by the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response (OSWER). This booklet will be evaluated on how it incorporates Markel’s six main characteristics of technical documentations effectively. The analysis will be written with sections categorized by the six characteristics. Summary of the Booklet The booklet,…
