vignette


discussion #1
Use the following vignette to respond to the discussion questions.
Four teachers want their students to understand the rule saying that non-essential clauses in sentences are set off by commas.
Janet Reeve displays six sentences on the overhead, three of which contain essential clauses and three others that contain non-essential clauses. She points out the clauses, correctly punctuates them, and explains why they are punctuated in this way. She then gives the students several sentences for practice, directing them to correctly punctuate the clauses in the sentences.
Steve Smith presents several sentences which contain essential clauses and other sentences that contain non-essential clauses. He directs the students to look for clauses in the sentences that have commas around them, and he guides them to conclude that the clauses set off by commas are not essential, whereas those that don’t have commas around them are essential. He then gives the students some additional sentences to punctuate correctly.
Javier Sanchez presents a paragraph which contains three underlined essential clauses and three other underlined non-essential clauses, each punctuated correctly. The class discusses the common features of the underlined and italicized clauses, and, with Javier’s guidance they arrive at a rule for punctuating essential and non-essential clauses. Javier then directs the students to write a paragraph containing at least three examples of essential clauses and three other examples of non-essential clauses, all punctuated correctly.CLICK HERE TO GET MORE ON THIS PAPER.....
Susan Welna presents a passage in which several examples of essential and non-essential clauses are embedded. She asks the students to describe the passages, and after they have made several observations, she punctuates the sentences properly, explaining the rule in the process.

University education.
The Uk now boosts six of the world’s top 20 universities, according to a new global table. Edinburgh and kings collage London have edged into the top 20 of the QS world university rankings.
Cambridge, UCL, imperial and oxford all made it into the top 10.
But john o’leary, of QS, warned that unless the uk puts more funding into higher education its leading position could slip.
Edinburburgh rose to 17th place from 21st place last year and kings collage London to 19th from 26th in 2012.

Us Domination
The top Uk University was Cambridge in third position, behind Massachusetts institute of technology at the top of the table and Harvard in the second. University collage of London (UCL) and imperial occupied fourth and fifth places, with oxford in sixth. Universities in the United States made up the rest of the top 10. There were eight Uk universities in the top 50 and 18 in the top 100, with graduates from oxford and Cambridge rated as the world’s most employable by 27,000 global graduate employers polled for the ranking.
“clearly the prestige of a degree is recognised by employers around the world, and the brand name value of oxbridge has so far survived any negative publicity following the tuition fee hikes and students protests,” said Bensowter, head of research at QS.
However the ranking also suggest that Uk universities struggles to keep up with the US when it comes to cutting-edge research. Of UK University, only Cambridge made the top 30 for research citations, with UCL, Oxford and imperial in the top 50

“The UK invest below the OECD average in higher education, so it is unrealististic to expect its universities to continue to punch above their weight indefinitely,” said john o’Leary, of the QS global academic advisory board. “The current success of the leading institutions shows how vital it is that the government matches the investment being made by other countries of education order to maintain their world-class status.” UCL’s new president and provost, Professor Michael Arthur, said the university’s high place in the rankings reflected its effort both in the uk and overseas.
But he said: “As pleasing as it is, rankings success will not divert us from focussing on our core mission of educating and inspiring our students and delivering world class research.”
Dr Wendy Piatt of the Russell Group noted that all six Uk universities in the top 20 and 17 of the 18 in the top 100 were members of the group.
“Their focus on research excellence and high-quality teaching means the Uk performs formidably well against other nations in spite of its size”, said Dr Piatt.
However, she warned:” if our universities are to compete in the future they need the government to provide light-tough regulation and continued investment, and to be welcoming to genuine international students. “it is worth again highlighting that the process of ranking universities is fraught with difficulties and they should not be used alone in judging the quality of an institution,”
Universities minister David Willets said the ranking were “fantastic news for the universities, their academics, and their students, who are some of the most employable in the world-however we are not complacent, and know we must work hard to remain the best”.
He added:”Our reforms to undergraduate finance have put universities on a sustainable financial footing and sharpened incentives to deliver a world-class student experience.
“We have protected research funding, encouraging universities to invest in cutting-edge research and we are helping our universities make the most of the growing opportunities globally through our international education strategy.”
YOUR TASK: using contemporary illustrative examples from academic literature and reputable business publications, discus the challenges to education establishment wishing to move up the rankings. What kind of marking strategy will enable them to move further up? Make recommendations, suitable to an educational entity of your choice, to enable them harness the growth currently being experienced in this region.

novels Brave New World


Paper instructions:
First of all, you need to have read the novels Brave New World, 1984 and maybe the anthem.
Write a 3-3.5 page paper and follow what it says in the next paragraph
In the following passage, the contemporary social critic Neil Postman contrasts George Orwell’s vision of the future, as expressed in the novel 1984 (written in 1948), with that of Aldous Huxley in the novel Brave New World (1932). Read the passage, considering Postman’s assertion that Huxley’s vision is more relevant today than is Orwell’s. Then, using your own critical understanding of contemporary society as evidence, write a carefully argued essay that agrees or disagrees with Postman’s assertion. Please integrate Ayn Rand’s “anthem” into your response as well.CLICK HERE TO GET MORE ON THIS PAPER.....
We were keeping our eye on 1984. When the year came and the prophecy didn’t, thoughtful Americans sang softly in praise of themselves. The roots of liberal democracy had held. Wherever else the terror had happened, we, at least, had not been visited by Orwellian nightmares. But we had forgotten that alongside Orwell’s dark vision, there was another – slightly older, slightly less well known, equally chilling: Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World. Contrary to common belief even among the educated, Huxley and Orwell did not prophesy the same thing. Orwell warns that we will be overcome by an externally imposed oppression. But in Huxley’s vision, no Big Brother is required to deprive people of their autonomy, maturity and history. As he saw it, people will come to love their oppression, to adore the technologies that undo their capacities to think.CLICK HERE TO GET MORE ON THIS PAPER.....
What Orwell feared were those who would ban books. What Huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one. Orwell feared those who would deprive us information. Huxley feared those who would give us so much that we would be reduced to passitivity and egoism. Orwell feared that the truth would be concealed from us. Huxley feared the truth would be drowned in a sea of irrelevance. Orwell feared we would become a captive culture. Huxley feared we would become a trivial culture, preoccupied with some equivalent of the feelies, the orgy porgy, and the centrifugal bumblepuppy. As Huxley remarked in Brave New World Revisited, the civil libertarians and rationalists who are ever on the alert to oppose tyranny “failed to take into account man’s almost infinite appetite for distractions”. In 1984, Huxley added, people are controlled by inflicting pain. In “Brave New World”, they are controlled by inflicting pleasure. In short, Orwell feared that what we hate will ruin us. Huxley feared that what we love will ruin us.

The balance of power


Project description
This week’s assignment involves the sort of data collection and manipulation that
you might have to do for a project of your own. It seems straightforward, but the
devil is in the details: there are a lot of land mines even the simplest data-gathering
exercise. The assignment is designed to point them out and help you walk around
them.
The Correlates of War Project (COW) produces one of the most widely-used
datasets in all of international relations: the National Material Capabilities Index
(NMCI). This index consists of annual values for total population, urban population,
iron and steel production, energy consumption, military personnel, and military
expenditure of all countries in the international system, from 1816-2007. In order
to calculate a country’s overall capabilities, COW takes the average of each country’s
share of system-wide resources in each of these six categories.
In this assignment, you will reproduce a more limited version of the NMCI
using present-day data.
1. Go to the Wikipedia pages for world population, GDP, and military expenditures.
?? For each page, extract the relevant data into a separate Excel spreadsheet.
(For population, use United Nations estimates.)
2. Get rid of all columns except country name and the quantity of interest (GDP,
population, and military expenditures, respectively). Add a first row and use
it for column names (“Country” and “GDP,” for example.)
3. Tidy up the data. Get rid of any extra characters. Select the key numeric
variables, go to the Format menu, choose “Cells…”, and convert them to
General—this gets rid of commas, dollar signs, percentages, etc., which are a
real pain when saved to a .csv file. When working on this step, beware of the
following problems:
??Wikipedia is convenient, but the data quality sucks. Never forget this. If this were more than an
exercise, you’d take the time to find better sources.
1
(a) Unless you used Outwit Hub in step 1, some of the country names will
have spaces in front of them. These are a pain to get rid of. The simplest
way is to copy them from the Excel spreadsheet into a text editor, use a
Find-and-replace command to get rid of them, and copy and paste them
back into Excel.
(b) Some names and numbers have Wikipedia footnotes (“b”, “[20]”) stuck
on the end. Outwit won’t save you from these. Deleting them by hand
in Excel is probably the fastest way to get rid of them.
(c) Wikipedia authors don’t always use the same names for the same countries,
so you need to make sure they’re consistent before merging them.
In particular, watch out for “China” and “People’s Republic of China,”
“Gambia” and “The Gambia,” and various combinations with “Congo”
and “Macedonia.”
4. Once you’re done tidying, save each dataset to a separate .csv file.
5. Create an R command file that does the following:
(a) Read each of the three .csv files into appropriately-named data frames
(for example, Pop, GDP, and MilEx).
(b) Summarize each of these data frames.
(c) In each data frame, create a new variable that reflects each country’s
percentage of the world total. (That is, divide the data column by the
world total.) Make sure that this new variable is part of the same data frame as
the original data column.
(d) Merge the three data frames. Match the data using country name.
(e) Create your version of the NMCI by calculating each country’s average
share of each of these three resources. If a country has 2% of the world’s
population, 1% of world GDP, and 4% of world military expenditures,
for example, its average share should be (2+1+4)/3 = 2.33%.
Your final dataset should have 8 columns: the name of the country, GDP (total
and percent of world), population (total and percent of world), military expenditures
(total and percent of world), and NMCI.
Due to Assignment 4 Drop-box: three .csv files and an R command file that creates
the data set described in 5., above.

Half Titration


Determining Ka by the
Half-Titration of a Weak Acid
A common analysis of a weak acid or a weak base is to conduct a titration with a base or acid of known molar concentration to help determine the equilibrium constant, Ka, for the weak acid or weak base. If this titration is conducted very carefully and very precisely, the results can lead to a valid approximation of an equilibrium constant. In this experiment, however, you will use a different technique to determine the Ka for a weak acid, acetic acid.
Your primary goal in this experiment is to calculate the Ka of acetic acid. The data that you will use to complete your calculations will come from the reaction of acetic acid with a solution of NaOH. Recall from your work with weak acid-strong base titrations that the point at which a reaction is half-titrated can be used to determine the pKa of the weak acid. In this experiment, the half-titration point will exist when you have added half as many moles of HC2H3O2 as moles of NaOH . Thus, OH– will have reacted with half of the HC2H3O2, leaving the solution with equal moles of HC2H3O2 and C2H3O2 –. At this point, according to the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation,
if there are equal moles of HC2H3O2 and C2H3O2 – at the half-titration point, then pKa is equal to the pH value of the solution.
In this experiment, you may find it surprising that you do not need to keep close track of the volume of NaOH titrant added, as you would in most titrations. It is also unusual to conduct a titration without plotting or analyzing a conventional titration curve. This is the nature of a half-titration; it is only important to know when equal amounts of OH– and HC2H3O2 have been added.CLICK HERE TO GET MORE ON THIS PAPER.....
OBJECTIVES
In this experiment, you will
• Conduct a reaction between solutions of a weak acid and sodium hydroxide.
• Determine the half-titration point of an acid-base reaction.
• Calculate the Ka and pKa for the weak acid.
Figure 1
MATERIALS
LabQuest 1.00 M sodium hydroxide, NaOH, solution
LabQuest App 1.00 M acetic acid, HC2H3O2, solution
Vernier pH Sensor phenolphthalein indicator solution
50 mL buret distilled water
buret clamp magnetic stirrer and stirring bar
250 mL beaker plastic Beral pipets
two ring stands utility clamp
PROCEDURE
1. Obtain and wear goggles.
2. Use a buret clamp to connect a 50 mL buret to a ring stand. Rinse and fill the buret with
1.00 M acetic acid solution. Handle the acetic acid with care. It can cause painful burns if it comes into contact with the skin.
3. Transfer precisely 25.0 mL of the acetic acid solution to a 250 mL beaker.
4. Use a plastic Beral pipet to remove a small volume of the acetic acid from the 250 mL beaker. Draw enough acetic acid into the pipet so that the bulb is about 1/4 full. Carefully set aside the pipet of acid, to be used later.
5. Add 1–2 drops of phenolphthalein indicator solution to the beaker of acetic acid.
6. Connect the pH Sensor to LabQuest and choose New from the File menu. If you have an older sensor that does not auto-ID, manually set up the sensor.
7. Obtain about 50 mL of 1.00 M NaOH solution. CAUTION: Sodium hydroxide solution is caustic. Avoid spilling it on your skin or clothing.
8. Begin the half-titration.
a. Place the beaker of acetic acid on a magnetic stirrer and add a stirring bar.
b. Set up a ring stand and clamp to hold the pH Sensor in place (see Figure 1). Position the pH Sensor in the beaker so that the tip of the probe is completely immersed.
c. Gently stir the acetic acid solution.
d. Do not start data collection. Monitor the pH of the reaction mixture on LabQuest.
e. Use a new plastic Beral pipet to slowly add the 1.00 M NaOH solution, in ~1 mL increments, to the beaker of acetic acid solution (see Figure 1).
9. Conduct the titration carefully. As the reaction approaches the equivalence point, at about pH 6, add the NaOH solution drop by drop. When you reach the equivalence point, the pH will increase rapidly and the indicator will change color. If necessary, add another drop of NaOH, so that the reaction is slightly past the equivalence point. Remember that the pH will not increase rapidly beyond the equivalence point (pH ~10).
10. Add all of the acetic acid from the Beral pipet, which you removed in Step 4, to the beaker of reaction mixture. Check the pH readings and observe the indicator color. The mixture should be slightly acidic once again.
11. Carefully add NaOH, drop by drop, to the beaker of reaction mixture, until you reach the equivalence point as precisely as possible. A very slight pink color of the phenolphthalein indicator is visible. This is your half-titrated solution, because you have neutralized precisely 25.0 mL of the original 50.0 mL of acetic acid that you measured out into the buret.
12. Transfer the remaining 25.0 mL of acetic acid from the buret to the 250 mL beaker of reaction mixture. Stir the solution in the beaker thoroughly. Read and record the pH of the solution in the beaker.
13. When you have finished the testing, dispose of the reaction mixture as directed. Rinse the pH Sensor with distilled water in preparation for a second trial. Repeat the necessary steps to test a new sample of the acetic acid solution.
DATA TABLE
Titration Results Trial 1 Trial 2
Equivalence point pH 8.68 8.25
pH of half-titrated solution 4.84 4.77
DATA ANALYSIS
1. Calculate the pKa and Ka using the results of your testing.
2. Find the accepted values for the pKa and Ka of acetic acid. How well do the accepted values compare with your calculated values? Explain.
3. Explain why the pH at the half-titration point is equal to the pKa in your experiment.
4. Explain how this test could be done using only an indicator solution and no electronic means of measuring pH.

History


1. The well-known historian Simon Schama once quipped that “1794 was just 1789 with a higher body count.” By this he meant that something about the French Revolutionary was inherently bloody and radical from its beginnings. By his account the Reign of Terror was neither a corruption of the original Revolutionary vision nor the outcome of events such as civil and foreign war, but rather the inevitable outcome of events. Using Sieyes’s 1789 pamphlet “What is the Third Estate?” and Robespierre’s 1794 speech “Principles of Political Morality” speech, examine whether there is any truth in what Schama has said. After first explaining Seiyes and Robespierre’s different historical and ideological contexts, consider their areas of difference and/or similarity. Questions you may want to consider include: What similarities and differences do we see in terms of how the nation is conceived and the policies necessary to defend it? Who are the enemies and what must be done with them?

education is big business


Paper instructions:
The education profession is over riddled with clichés such as “education is big business,” “Education is a major user of the nation’s economic resources,” “Education is costing too much to the lower and middle class.” The challenge of distributing and spending tax revenues in an equal and fair manner is a challenge. Equity should not be considered synonymous with quality, as equality relates to treating everyone the same, whereas equity means treating one fairly. As Federal and State budgets are being reduced, as taxes are being held to a ceiling limit, revenue is not keeping up with the financial demands for running a school system. Despite these constant cuts and the impact on the school budgets across the nation, the issue of equality and equity are major concerns. To meet the challenge of funding schools equally, various patterns of financing education are emerging, but the fairness and equality is always an area of debate among taxpayers.
Activity Required Reading:
• Financing education in a climate of change. Chapters 3, 4
• School Finance: From Equity to Adequacy (2004)
Main Task:
Present a critique on the positive / negative fiscal trends and issues impacting in your state’s school funding formula and impacting local school budget. How can the problems identified be improved upon by a revised funding formula, which promotes fairness and equality among the tax payers.
Criteria:
Length: 5-7 pages
References: A minimum of 5 scholarly resources
Your paper should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts that are presented in the course and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards. Review APA Form and Style.
Outcomes
• Analyze the importance of investing in education and utilizing local, state and Federal funds for the betterment of our future society.

CREDE Standards Reflected in Instructional Strategies for ELLs


Reflect on the CREDE standards for effective pedagogy, as presented by Dr. Roland Tharp. These standards emphasize the importance of the student/teacher relationship, types of interactions students have in the classroom, and nature of the curricular materials. Creating what Dr. Tharp calls a "CREDE classroom" can ensure that all of your students, including ELLs, have high-quality learning experiences. Further, this week’s Learning Resources present a wide variety of specific instructional strategies you can employ to foster the academic achievement of ELLs in your classroom. Examine the strategies presented in the course text, 50 Strategies for Teaching English Language Learners, focusing specifically on how the approaches demonstrate the CREDE standards for effective pedagogy. Choose two strategies that you believe exemplify one or more of the CREDE standards, and think about how these strategies might be helpful for the students in your classroom.
With these thoughts in mind, follow the instructions below to post your response to this Discussion topic.
? Post a description of at least two strategies that you believe demonstrate one (or more) of the CREDE standards, explaining how you think the standard(s) can be met by using these strategies. Also, explain why you think these strategies will effectively support ELLs in your class and list any recommendations, questions, or concerns you might have for implementation.
