What is seen in the data is that there is not a steady decline in the reaction time when you compare each column to the previous or next respectively. The time increases when comparing Group A to Group B, but not Group B to Group C. The same also applies to Group C to Group D and then a decrease from Group D to Group E. Figure 1 shows a clearer picture of the RT when compared to all of the reaction time. Even though the time decreases in some areas, there is clear increase or RT when looking from the

for this lesson. I followed the plan given to me by the curriculum book by talking about the activity first then letting the students work together in groups to divide the cakes as best as possible. I thought it would be beneficial to let students come up to the board and practice with dividing the cakes before letting them work with their groups. I think that by allowing a few of them to show their initial thought process allowed others to see how they could divide their cakes as well. I then gave

This paper will show the history of algebra, how it started, and how it grew to be what it is today. It will show that it started it developments from the basic arithmetic operations that first were used to solve simple addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division and how it went incorporating more operations that permitted it to solve problems that involve abstract concepts. It will show that the recorded history begins mostly with the Egyptian papyrus, and how it went passing from one civilization

Jessica Scruggs Phil 307 Response Paper #3 11/11/16 Millikan’s “Biosemantics” Millikan’s goal for “Biosementaics” is to explain what connects a representation with the thing it represents. To reach this goal, Millikan has to explain that there are special conditions that need to be met to form a connection between a representation and its object. These “content-fixing” conditions cannot be statistically normal conditions, because normal is a relative term. An example Millikan gives is that of a red

Multiplicative thinking, fractions and decimals are important aspects of mathematics required for a deep conceptual understanding. The following portfolio will discuss the key ideas of each and the strategies to enable positive teaching. It will highlight certain difficulties and misconceptions that children face and discuss resources and activities to help alleviate these. It will also acknowledge the connections between the areas of mathematics and discuss the need for succinct teaching instead

the generation, application, combination, and extension of new ideas. In the context of groups and teams, creativity is inventing or creating a new idea, strategy, principle, or approach to solving a problem (Beebe and Masterson 302). A technique we used to enhance our team creativity was group brainstorming. Brainstorming is a creative problem-solving method, developed by Alex Osborn, designed to help a group

challenging at some situations because all my teammates were depending on me in order to have positive results. The team builder activity that we did in class was very interesting to do because every person in the group had restrictions and limitations on what they could contribute in the group which made me a bit challenging especially because time was against our favor. This activity made me realize that every person can make a difference based on what capabilities they have and this

completed that task? That feeling is caused by a phenomenon known as the bandwagon effect. Concepts such as the bandwagon effect are explored in Ayn Rand’s Anthem. In the novella, there is a collectivist society that believes more in the importance of the group instead of the individual. Personal preferences are suppressed, and people who question the collectivist ideals are persecuted by society. The people cannot decide what they want to become because the Council picks what occupation they receive based

, their symmetry, their happy balance; in a word it is all that introduces order, all that gives unity, that permits us to see clearly and to comprehend at once both the ensemble and the details”(Poincaré). The need for symmetry to understand the whole is found not only in math, but also in literature. In The Knight’s Tale, symmetry provides balance to stories by highlighting critical aspects for understanding. The balance of conflict and resolution help complete the story and create a sense of

Divide students into groups of 4 Each student will have an assigned role in the group: Leader: Manages time, and makes sure everyone is on-task.  Recorder: Records group answers and discussion outcomes. Material Manager: Collects and deals with the materials. Spokesperson: Reports the group's conclusions. Have material managers come up and collect the supplies that belongs to their group.
