Life is what you make of it, such that a person can be an astronaut to become the next Neil Armstrong or work at a fast food establishment. Each one of these occupations have their own benefits but one thing they don’t have in common is education. With education and higher skill level there will be more work responsibility, finical compensation and more opportunities for advancement. Without additional education there is less chance for advancement In 2015, I was forced into a position to make a choice if my current employment was right for me or if going to school would open up more opportunities for me. I was working full time at a local Computerized Numerical Control (CNC) Machining company, making enough to get by, some work freedom and…

nature. They promote design for the masses but without serious consideration they could cause massive amounts of careless waste. 3D printing already represents a sizeable portion of present additive/modern manufacturing and will only grow with time due to the ability to make either incredible artistic forms,products that are essential to a modern designer; 'Additive manufacturing technologies have removed many of the manufacturing restrictions that may previously have compromised a designer 's…

the conversation to continue. Whereas if the same individual was to respond by saying “ko.” The singular full stop indicates that he/she is unimpressed and he/she would like an immediate nullification of the conversation. Capital letters are used to express anger. In order to show one’s enraged state all of their acronyms or words -if at that moment, is the instance discussed previously where the English language must be incorporated with Gibba Jabber - must be capitalized . The longevity of…

Part B Diagnostic Interview and Tutoring Sessions Permission was granted (Appendix A) to interview and tutor Athena*, who is a 9 year old student in Year 4 who returned to Australia in the middle of Year 3, after living in the United States for 5 years. The Mathematics Assessment Interview (MAI) was conducted on a weekend afternoon at Athena’s home shortly after lunch (Australian Catholic University, 2011b). She did not seem to be nervous and was informed that the purpose of the questions was to…

In fourth grade various new math ideas are presented and many students can face difficulties when new material is introduced. Difficulties are especially displayed when it comes to discovering decimals. Although decimals are introduced in fourth grade they are continuously presented in math thereafter. One common misconception held about decimals is the idea that the more digits that are presented in a number, the greater the value of the number. An example of this is students believing that 3…

and a ruler) were introduced. Boris’s was observed during the initial assessment, working out the number lines by using fractions to divide the lines evenly (half then quarters) prior to skip counting within halves or quartered partitioned lines, this method was continued in the tutoring sessions for comprehension continuity. The intention was to use Boris’s ZPD (as cited in Reys et. al. 2012 p. 24.) to and refine the process based upon their improved confidence, comprehension and practice,…

The second grade classroom I am in began this year the students in the classroom practicing their addition and subtraction in a one-digit numbers through various strategies, word problems, and diverse lessons. However, as the year went on my cooperating teacher had the students begin solving two-digit addition and subtraction problems. My classroom is set up for their numeracy portion of the class that they usually start with whole group lesson, then move into small groups to practice the lesson…

Obtaining a fundamental understanding of the underlying physics of granular systems is important both for academic interest and industrial applications. Experimental measurements in full three-dimensional (3D) large industry scale granular system are complicated and expensive. Computational techniques such as the Discrete Element Method (DEM) can potentially be applied as a tool to provide understanding granular machine systems dynamics, virtual equipment design and evaluation of machine…

Ancient India, China, and Mesopotamia, if you look from the outside in, don’t seem like they have a great deal in common, and you would be right, but do you know what they do have in common? China and India are 2 of the oldest continuous civilizations that have yet to fall. They have become ancient to modern civilizations. Both India and China are both composed of lesser states than the Middle East and Europe The ancient civilizations were shaped by their past and it helped the countries develop…

A student will start to develop their place value knowledge once they are confident using number names, classifying objects, identifying patterns and as they begin to develop their counting skills. From Year 1, the Australian Curriculum expects students to count collections to 100 by partitioning numbers using place value (ACARA, 2016). This means students need to learn about grouping in tens and that two-digit numbers are made up of tens and ones. Booker, Bond, Barrow and Swan (2014, p. 87)…
