An adult learner in the classroom can be challenging, as they become another sub-demographic of needs to be met in a traditional or online course room. The needs of an adult leaner was first articulated through Malcolm Knowles’(1968) andragogy; the art and science of helping adults learn (Merriam, Caffarella, and Baumgartner, 2007, p.…

Results The results focus on the effect of the personalized mus- cle geometry on the force generation in the lower limb. DistMo defines the model personalized with the PA ob- tained with the straight line approach, while CenMo describes the model personalized with the PA obtained with the centroid line approach. GenMo represents the model that used the generic values of the PA from OpenSim (PARF = 13.9◦, PAV I = 4.5◦, PAV L = 18.4◦, PAV M = 29.6◦). The inter-model force and moment variations…

John .F. Kennedy one said "Mankind must put an end to war before war puts an end to mankind."

This essay argues towards the conclusion that Robert Nozick’s ‘experience machine’ thought experiment does not successfully challenge hedonism as a theory of rational action. It will first explore the concept of hedonism and what would be required to mount a successful challenge to it. It will then outline the ‘experience machine’ thought experiment and assess the conclusions Nozick draws. Referring to epistemological objections raised by Woolard and Hewitt alongside methodological objections…

In order to construct the interdependent modular networks, first, two isolated networks labeled A and B was generated and both A and B are small-world modular networks[3, 46], where each modular has the Watts-Strogatz(WS) networks structure[5]. Without loss of generality, the two networks are designed with the same number of nodes NA=NB=N. Then, we coupled the two isolated networks with a certain preferences. Watts and Strogatz in their seminal paper discovered that many real-world networks are…

In 1895, H.G. Wells wrote The Time Machine- a seemingly simple time-travelling adventure with much deeper undertones alluding to Wells’ view of the inequality within society at the time. Time and time again, the story refers to class oppression, some way or another. The overarching theme of the oppressive nature of class distinction in society is clearly shown through the societal origins of the Eloi and Morlocks, the actions of the Morlocks and Time Traveller, and the various titles of the…

Technological During World War II: Was the Enigma Machine the Start of the Computer Age? It is true that the loss of life sorely exceeds the individual developments and inventions in technology; but as a whole, technology exceeded most expectations that occurred during the infancy of these advancements. Most of the technology created was meant to hurt one population or another, but it has impacted all of our lives in a positive way since. Possibly the worst time in the history of the world, we…

Drake students with peace of mind knowing that their children will have access to around the clock medical supplies. By default, the University would be a beneficiary of our product. Not only would we have to pay the University rent for our vending machine space, but MedMachine would be a feature that they could market to prospective students and their parents. Also by having 24/7 access to various health products the student body would be overall healthier and recover from illnesses quicker…
