In geometry, congruence means the figures have the same measure and shape. For a student to effectively discuss congruence they must first recognize the figure and its attributes. To achieve this, the learner must be able to differentiate one figure from another. To compare figures and establish that one is congruent to the other or not, the student pulls on an understanding of shapes. To prove congruence, the student makes connections with axioms, properties, analysis, and logic. The…

Observation of plant and animal cells through a light microscope. A cell is the most basic structure of any living organism and is capable of independently reproducing. Cells can be grouped into two categories, prokaryotic and eukaryotic. In a eukaryotic cell there are small organelles that carry out specific functions which can be compared to the organs in the human body. Some of these organelles include the nucleus, which holds the cells DNA, mitochondria, which produce ATP from glucose and…

As two neighboring countries, both of which containing exceedingly complimentary economics and societies, it seems absurd to many that Japan and China continue to struggle with relations. However, few know of the historical backgrounds, political relations and bilateral economics that have led the countries to have such an intricate relationship. Japan and China have many things to gain from a proper alliance, and under the administration of Japan’s Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, the two could…

muscle is on the spinous processes of thoracic vertebrae 7–12, the thoracolumbar fascia, the iliac crest, and the lower ribs (Figure14). The tendon is attached to the humerus anteriorly floor of bicipital groove. The tendon is either wing-like or quadrilateral. Most of the deep surface of the tendon of the latissimus dorsi is separated from the underlying tendon of the teres major muscle by a bursa. The latissimus dorsi has several different functions, all of which involve movements of the arm.…

minds to never actually think outside the box - or painting in this case. However, there isn’t a border towards the bottom right; this is to show that you can still fall out of sanity, into the world below. The blood drips fall into the white quadrilateral abyss with only a black bar above it to hold onto. As we go through life, we never quite understand how close to…

The Van Hiele Levels of Geometric Reasoning describes how students learn geometry. It was a theory worked on by Pierre Van Hiele and his wife, Dina Van Hiele-Geldof. They were Dutch researchers and teachers. They came up with this theory at the University of Utrecht in the year 1957. The Van Hiele’s did multiple research experiments and it took years for them to complete this thesis. Shortly after the thesis was complete, Dina passed away (Šafránková, 2012, p. 72). These levels have five…

They planned to recapture Nice and Savoy with no thought for the consequences. Cavour panicked, realising the catastrophic consequences of attempting to start a war with France could have. However news from Sicily about a rebellions occurring led to Garibaldi changing course. Garibaldi arrived in Sicily and moved up through the state acquiring more recruits and people joined his growing army. Soon Sicily was in the hands of Garibaldi and entirely under his control. He then headed north, towards…

Clever TITLE here The Octavia Art Gallery currently exhibits two artists: Regina Scully and Iva Gueorguieva. Regina Scully’s works consisted of acrylics of an abstract nature. The use of various vibrant colours in her works, as well as their abstract and subjective essence, made them fascinating to behold. Her work reminded me of Kandinsky’s. I could have spent close to an hour fully examining and exploring her many works in the Gallery. Conversely, I would and did spend minimal time observing…

My chosen area of mathematics is angles in polygons, due to the visual nature of geometry enabling the students to be engaged and stimulated (Chambers & Timlin, 2013). Not only this, but since geometry is present in our everyday lives, students have a basic grasp of shapes, however, they have not developed a critical understanding of what properties define that shape (Bell et al., 1983). This basic foundation knowledge can also cause difficulty when it comes to teaching and learning as the…
