The advantages of attending Mount Aloysius College to me are the small class sizes, proximity to home, and the overall atmosphere of the campus. As a high school senior one of the major deciding factors of a school was the size of the college. Throughout public school, I always found that one-on-one is the type of classroom that I did best in. Due to this my main attraction in a school was small class sizes and a small campus. The reason that a small campus was appealing to me was due to the small size of my high school and not wanting the difficulty of driving building to building or having a hundred students in my class.
Standardized tests are very common in today’s modern society. They are used as a tool to measure a person’s performance and indicate how their estimated performance will be in a college class. Every year hundreds of students take the ACT or SAT in order to get accepted into their college of choice and to receive scholarships, but they fail to see the problems with these standardized tests. As more and more people take these tests, the national average score falls causing doubt in the extremely important system. This is leading people to question whether or not the ACT and SATs are accomplishing what they were created to do.

I believe this is because periodic trends and chemical bonding and structure are less mathematical and more explanation and evaluation than our earlier topics. She still did very well for the quarter in all aspects of the class. The specific nature and meaning of much of the HL Chemistry content requires extra time to study and process and Jiahui may find it helpful to study a little more each night rather than trying to study a lot right before the exam. In our class discussions she is very attentive and asks many questions. When given practice questions she uses her time wisely and will often seek clarification about difficult questions.
There are some certain rules and instructions to follow when using a Chemistry laboratory. Most of the times students have to engage with hazardous chemicals which are flammable, poisonous, carcinogenic and sometimes explosive. All the accidents which are happening during a chemistry practical or an experiment are due to the carelessness, impatience, improper or unauthorized experimentation and most importantly disregarding the rules and regulations in a laboratory. [1] So, there are some rules and instructions to follow when using a laboratory. • Unauthorized experiments or work should not be performed in a laboratory.
(Second Semester) Origins allows students ten weeks of reading and discussing the Creation vs. Evolution debate. The last five weeks are devoted to a simple section on chemistry, in which students learn how to use the periodic table and build models of
I was always the smartest in my family and between my siblings; Literally, I had no life back during the elementary. mid-school and high school besides books and libraries. I graduated from the high school with a high GPA in scientific intensive section; back in Kuwait, where I come from we have two sections in high school that we have to choose one of the two section in the beginning of grade eleven. However, in grade ten we take a common general courses and subjects that let us find ourselves and our interest, is it more about science or about arts, then based on tenth grade we decide. At first I was always wanted to study abroad, but my father’s situation was the only problem, he is a “cancer worrier” as I always called him.
One article which was published in 1984 by Barrass listed some biological misconceptions which he discovered were formed from errors or ambiguous information in textbooks and from misinformed teachers. This research, however, is thirty-two years old and some educational systems all over the world have progressed since then and this is much less of an issue in certain regions presently. The one statement made in the article which is still very relevant today is that it is also a difference in day-to-day language and scientific language which leads to some misconceptions. For example, in science, a theory is something supported and accepted but when discussed casually it has a completely contradictory denotation. This discrepancy has the potential to contribute to many misconceptions because the students may misunderstand the meaning of the word/s and thus the entire concept may be
For the assignment in TSL 3113: Developing and Using Resources for the Primary ESL Classroom, we were given the task to prepare a one-hour lesson plan in a group of 3, and then each of us need to create our own teaching and learning material. It is crucial for us, future teachers to be able to create a lesson plan that suits certain topic and specific level of learning. In addition, a well-planned lesson plan will have its own teaching materials. For this task, I had chosen to prepare a Terabai, which is an Iban’s shield (Appendix 1). It is to be used in a Year 5 English language lesson, during the topic “Fascinating Sabah and Sarawak” in Unit 8.
Even as a student of mechanical engineering we were taught various subjects apart from mechanical engineering. In our college we usually refer the graduates as engineers not mentioning their major because we were taught that engineering is not just about a field major it is a perfect blend of art, humanities, science and technology and it does make engineering more engaging. In the first year of my under-graduation I had severe health issues (affected by aseptic meningitis followed by swine influenza) which had a substantial effect on my academic performance. After recovering I worked hard to progress in academics and eventually I was granted a scholarship from institution (of Rs1 lakh) in the year
