Arthritis is a medical condition that causes joint inflammation, stiffness, and resulting pain. This disease affects an estimated 40 million Americans, with a positive correlation towards old age. Opening medication bottles can be difficult for arthritis patients who struggle to open twist lids, snap lids, and click-locks. Janet Kramer is an arthritis patient that struggles to open her medicine bottles. This solution uses a sliding mechanism that requires no twisting motion and little force. The mechanism is operated by pulling on a rod, and pushing down. The downwards motion creates a class one lever that uses the shell of the bottle as a fulcrum. The effort force is magnified by a mechanical advantage to lift the cap. This solution will be designed according to design specifications and evaluated with the performance benchmarks. If the concept performs unsatisfactorily, the design process will reiterate until the problem is solved for the stakeholder.

The U.S. public education system has been subject for debate for many years now, budget cuts, overcrowding and lack of innovation have severely impacted the effectiveness of our schools. As a result, according to a report by Education Week, “In mathematics, 29 nations and other jurisdictions outperformed the United States by a statistically significant margin, up from 23 three years ago” (Heitin). Coupled with our 19th and 22nd ranking of literacy and science respectively, because of this, we can conclude a reform is necessary if we want to remain prevalent in tomorrow 's economy (Heitin). To get to the root of the problem and secure economic prosperity for our children, we need to reconcile the relationship between schools and students. Some of the reasons students dislike school is because it revolves around the prospect of failure, not gaining knowledge or solving problems. Therefore, this method is not very effective as it does not encourage curiosity and relies on extrinsic motivation.

2. Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire - Pokemon has been around for almost 10 years now, a regular entry in the Gameboy RPG market, really the only entry in that market, and a damn good one. By the time this pair was released (the usual duplicate games with slightly different monsters in each), the same gameplay was reused a good four times and starting to get a little old, but it's still sound gameplay, and who doesn't like to collect as much of something as they can. I'm older yes, but I still enjoy the mindless capture and battle system of Pokemon. It's cathartically simple.

Pokemon was created in the 1990s, by a Japanese game designer named Satoshi Tajiri, who was inspired by his childhood hobby of collecting insects. Pokemon exploded soon after its inception, selling hundreds of thousands of copies around the world, inspiring an anime series that continues to this day, and capturing the minds of millions of young children. The original release of Pokemon featured a single region containing 151 species. Today, there exist six unique regions that collectively house over 700 species!

The consumer video game systems offer an exciting opportunity to discuss and analyze the design of technology based on the strategy of each of the players within the industry.

The five forces that drive industry competition, a model established by Michael Porter, are; threat of substitution, threat of new entrants, bargaining power of suppliers, bargaining power of buyers, and intensity of rivalry. The video game industry must deal with all five of these forces. The analysis of the strength of these five forces within the video game industry will help to draw a conclusion as to whether or not it is an attractive industry for Sony to be in.

Mathematics, like every creation of man, have evolved without really knowing how far you can get with them: the scope of the computer, physics, chemistry, algebra, all are evidence of this. Every aspect of our culture is based in some way or another in Mathematics: language, music, dance, art, sculpture, architecture, biology, daily life. All these areas of measurements and calculations are accurate. Even in nature, everything follows a precise pattern and a precise order: a flower, a shell, a butterfly, day and night, the seasons. All this makes mathematics essential for human life and they can not be limited only to a matter within the school curriculum; here lies the importance of teaching math in a pleasure, enjoyable and understandable way. Mathematics is an aid to the development of the child and should be seen as an aid to life and not as an obstacle in their lifes.
