Mass-Valderrama CHM1032 summer ‘12 Graphing and Estimating Formal Lab Report Introduction: Today scientists put acquired data into a form of a graph. This said graph is designed to help make predictions and furthermore, study and understand the experiment and its contents at hand. The Graphing and Estimating lab involves just that. The lab is designed to collect data from several tests involving burn time of a candle. Oxygen, O2, is a kind of gas. A lot of the air we breathe as human beings is
assessments, than the approximate 20% of New Zealand children that reported they did not ever read for fun (Chamberlain, 2008, as cited in Fletcher, Grimley, Greenwood, & Parkhill, 2012 p. 4). Previous research has supported the claim that teachers can promote motivation among their students regarding reading in middle and upper primary grades, when teachers select literature that involves a climax that is likely to peak the student’s interests and read aloud as a whole class setting (p. 9). Although
collected is imprecise because it is affected by many variables. The mortality rate of the people in Ethiopia can affect my data highly. During this time Ethiopia had a high rate of migration, this could also be included as one of the variables that have affected my data. I will be using this set of data to draw a graph so that I can generate a model to represent this data so that I can use it to predict the population after five years. Year Population (in millions) 1 2015 99.3 2 2010 87.5 3 2005
As our team got ready to start quarter 3 and our third decision, we had to take a look back at quarter 2. We are firm 2 and currently in last place at the end of quarter 2. Sure we had the 2nd highest cumulative profit at $311, 553 compared to firm 3 at $339,969 but we were quite a bit ahead of firm 1 at $299,061. But it’s not all about the cumulative profit but it’s about the net profit and at end of quarter 2, we were in dead last. Firm 1 was actually in first place with the net profit at $170
Casio is a consumer electronics company renowned for their inventions and contributions to electronic engineering. While most people are familiar with Casio’s trendy G-Shock watches, digital cameras, and musical instruments it can be easy to overlook the company’s impressive track record. Featuring many of the world’s “First including an electronic dictionary, inkjet printer, personal calculator, and even the world’s first cellphone with a built-in 3.2 megapixel camera.” Casio Computer Co. LTD was
Over the past few years technology has taken on a whole new meaning. We have moved from the days of chalkboards, to whiteboards, to interactive whiteboards. Our students seem to be more computer savvy than their teachers. Home telephones are starting to become a thing of the past, and cell phones have turned into mini-computers. Technological geniuses have even tried to eliminate books by creating electronic books, for example the Kindle and Nook. It has become pretty evident that being technologically
I just reminded the class that they are trying to answer the question to best of their ability using whichever strategy that they felt the most comfortable with or thought would yield the correct solution and that wrong solutions are okay as long as we learn from the mistakes. While walking around the room and checking in on each group after they had time to individually examine the task, I noticed first that members in Michaela’s group were really all trying different, independent strategies because
Introduction Assumption/Hypothesis Confirm a common assumption about data statistics: data statistics are accurate in calculation but can be misleading in interpretation and decision making. Background “There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics.” This quotation is often attributed to Benjamin Disraeli, the 19th century British Prime Minister. In research studies, Statistics allow us to distill a large number of experiences down to a few simple truths. But the truths may not

Iowa State. One of the key points at these meetings was how to integrate technology in the class (standard XI). We were shown interactive websites, ideas with smart boards, and how to use graphing calculators to integrate instruction in the class. I used graphing calculators and interactive powerpoints in the classroom as much as possible. Students are tech savvy, and the more you can use technology, the more engaged students will be. Throughout my student teaching, I would reflect upon my instruction
