Mel Levines A Mind at a Time Essay - 2679 Words

Mel Levines A Mind at a Time Mel Levine’s book, A Mind at a Time, describes many aspects of cognitive psychology and attempts to apply them to the educational system for young children. This book also makes suggestions for parents that have children with cognitive difficulties. The chapters in this book are designated to various aspects of cognitive psychology as they pertain to children. This paper focuses on chapter six in A Mind at a Time, which is titled â€Å"Making Arrangements: Our Spatial and Sequential Ordering Systems.† This is a very interesting chapter because it incorporates many aspects of cognitive psychology. In this chapter, Levine focuses on how children organize their world in terms of learning, thinking,†¦show more content†¦He states that there are five levels, starting with the most basic and finishing with the most intricate ways of learning and behaving. The levels are as follows: perceiving (level one), remembering (level two), creating (level three), organiz ing (level four), and thinking on a higher plane (level five). At the basic level, Levine states that the child must first be able to understand the relationships and the important characteristics of a spatial or sequential pattern. Once this is accomplished they can store this information for later use (remembering), which will help the child create output that is arranged spatially or sequentially (level three). Level four is where the child is expected to be good at â€Å"time management (sequential) and materials management (spatial)† (Levine, p.152). Finally the child is able to reason, solve problems, and form concepts using their spatial and sequential ordering systems. In the first half of the chapter, Levine discusses sequential ordering in terms of the five levels described above. He states that a child needs to be able to perceive the order of the days of the week, the months of the year, and perhaps the steps in solving a problem. If parents recognize a lack in this ability in their child, Levine suggests that they should practice teaching their children rhymes and other practices that force the child to use their sequentialShow MoreRelatedEssay on The Impact of Motivation on Learning2195 Words   |  9 Pagestowards learning and what methods can be used.

A New Era Of Working Towards Ending A Coming Disaster

One of the largest threats in this world that affects everyone living on planet Earth is climate change. It threatens society, the economy, and predominantly the environment. According to the IPCC, â€Å"Each of the last three decades has been successively warmer at the Earth’s surface than any preceding decade since 1850 (Voiland).† Future generations of mankind are put at risk because of problems we the present are creating. Climate change, the result of greenhouse gases thickening the atmosphere, challenges the environment by warming the climate, rising sea levels, jeopardizing human health, and possibly shattering the economy, but actions by the UN, different countries, and other organizations have initiated a new era of working towards ending a coming disaster. Climate change is arising primarily due to human activities, as technology and pollution coincide to dismantle the contentious layer of greenhouse gasses. Heat trapping gasses, mainly carbon dioxide, are constantly adding to the atmosphere because of the burning of fossil fuels. As WWF Global points out, the layer of greenhouse gases acts much like a warm blanket to protect the Earth from the harsh iciness of the universe. When fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and natural gas are burned, carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere. Resulting in a thicker coat of greenhouse gases, the climate then warms up additionally.

He goes on to explain the important ties between the birthday of the nation and the birthday of Jesus Christ. He says that the Declaration of Independence was first organized on the foundation of Jesus mission on Earth, and that the Decla ration â€Å"laid the cornerstone of human government upon the first precepts of Christianity. Adams stressed that the major impact of the Revolution was that Christian principles and civil government were connected in an â€Å"indissoluble† bond. ( p.17 Barton, America: To...) Other Founding Fathers were very outspoken about Christian beliefs. John Jay, the first Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, and one of the men most responsible for the Constitution said, â€Å"Providence (heaven) has given to our people the choice of their rulers, and it is the duty, as well as the privilege and interest, of our Christian nation to select and prefer Christian rulers.† (p.8 Barton, America: To...) It seems obvious from the start of the Amendment right that there was controversy surrounding a separation. With so many Christians making the amendment, and loose fully enforcing a separation, it seems there had to be a slip-up sometime in the future. The issue of the separation was not really taken into consideration on a national level until the late 70s.

Forecast Storms Essay Example For Students

Forecast Storms Essay If you know where and when to look, you can treat yourself to a colourful display of atmospheric haloes, spots and pillars. These images can tell you something about the clouds overhead and possible changes in the weather.All of these images are created by light shining through cirrostratus clouds. These clouds occur at an altitude of 6,000-12,000 metres. They appear as a thin sheet or layer (strata) that is pure white. The layer of cloud is so thin (only 100-450 metres) that is doesn’t obscure the sun or moon, so you should be able to see your shadow.Cirrostratus is made of many types of ice crystals. However, four crystal shapes are responsible for producing most of the commonly see haloes-plate crystals, columns, capped columns and bullets.The most obvious halo is found around the sun. If the layer of cirrostratus is extensive, you’ll see an entire ring. Within the layer of cloud, sunlight is striking and passing through the sides of randomly-oriented ice crystals. As the sunlight passes through each crystal, the light changes direction, or refracts. The radius of the hale depends on the amount of change in the direction of the sun’s light. Usually this is 22 degrees. Since the sun is 1/2 of a degree across, the radius of the halo is 44 sun-widths. Occasionally you may see a second halo at 46 degrees from the sun (that is, with a radius of 92 sun-widths). This is produced by sunlight passing through both the side and bottom of each crystal. Moonlight will also produce a halo, around the moon, with the proper layer of cirrostatus.Another common optical effect is known as â€Å"mock suns† or â€Å"sun dogs† or â€Å"parhelia† (Greek for â€Å"with the sun†). These bright spots on either side of the sun, outside of the halo, occur when sunlight passes through the sides of capped columns, bullets and plate crystals, when these crystals are arranged with their sides vertical. The crystals wobble, diffusing and smearing the colours of the mock sun. You can see haloes and mock suns more clearly if you block out your view of the real sun by holding your hand in front of it at arm’s length. Another spectactular optical effect is the solar pillar. This is a vertical shaft of light the same colour as the sun stretching upwards from the sun and is most often seen at sunset or sunrise. It’s produced by sunlight reflecting of the base of plate and capped column crystals in the clouds. You can also see pillars in an ice fog, when it’s illuminated by streelights, or airport runway lights, for instance. The appearance of all these optical images is a good indication that the weather will change. Strong vertical air currents associated with low pressure storms carry moist air skyward, where the water freezes. High speed winds above the storm system push the ice crystals on ahead. When you see haloes around the sun or moon, you can be sure of two things-there are cirrostratus clounds above and, in a day or two, the skies will darken with an approaching storm.

Ethical Issues for IT Security for Identification- myassignmenthelp

Question: Discusss about theEthical Issues for IT Security Personnelfor Identification. Answer Introduction IT professionals and consultants have to be guided by prescribed code of conduct in their line of duty. According to Nemeth (2012), IEEE code of conduct for IT professionals outlines various practices that has to be met by all IT consultants and professionals who work for more than one client. All responsibilities to manage clients system and offer required services are at hands of IT professionals but how they handle one clients needs should differ from the other. IEEE code of conduct that guides relationship between an IT consultant and its clients stipulates that, all IT professionals should act in a manner that suites specific customer and has to be consistent with public interests. In this regard, if an observation has been made on client A during service delivery and can be useful in client B case, it would be best for the consultant to use only when client B need arises. This would help in upholding integrity and independence of the service delivery (Zafar Clark, 2009). A req uirement that works best in scenario A may not work in scenario B because of the difference in nature of the business. Identification First, Greitzer Frincke (2010) argues that, IT professionals has to maintain required integrity and service independence when doing their personal judgment. This makes it clear that, copying of ideas may work but in relation to IEEE standards, integrity and independence of service delivery is very important when working for multiple clients. Similarly, privacy of organization in regard to its operational procedures should not be exposed by IT professionals owing to the facts that, they are solving problem by implementing technology from another organization without approved copyrights (Davies, Hertig Gilbride, 2015) Analyze Though working with multiple clients helps IT professionals coordinate their activities well by learning from various environment, if it has to be done, it has to done when all procedures and organizational system requirements are in place. The responsibility of keeping what service provider has been implemented in other organization may not be ethical if it poses great competition to latter organization. Professionally, it would be worthy to implement ideas that have their origin from other organization because it infringes copyrights code of conduct (Siponen Vance, 2010). Due to lack of knowledge and ignorance, some of IT consultants and professionals have been copying what they learn from other clients without knowledge of the first client Greitzer Frincke (2010). It is important to understand rules that govern copyright and innovation since innovation in one organization should not be implemented in another organization without knowledge of the latter. Additionally, it would not be professional to start implementing some ideas because it may amount to loss of operational secrecy from one organization to the other. Mainly, operational procedure of any business are determined by technology in place and duplicating what has been learnt form one customer to the other may pose competitive problems in the market (Dark, 2011). A good example is in manufacturing industry where several organization produce almost related products are they severely compete in the market. As an IT consultant to both organizations, borrowing of ideas related to technology and implementing them in competitors system discloses ways of operation of one company (Davies, Hertig Gilbride, 2015). In market environment, such an event may end up pushing one of the organizations out of market without even the knowledge of IT personnel because the goal was to solve problem but a lot of business secrets has been lost. Evaluation/ Justification As an employee of several organizations, determining what belongs to organization and to individual as an employee is quite important because it helps in solving trades offs in service delivery to specific client in relation to terms of agreement. As a system administrator in two competing firms, knowing a secret on how company A secures its data is of important to me and gives administrator more skills on how to handle data. If at the same time the same administrator is working for company B and same methodology can applied to secure data, it would be applicable to implement it in company B provided no technological infrastructure has been imported from one firm to the other. In such a scenario, only technology can be employed but not carrying physical assets such as software of company A for use in company B. Technology transfer might be allowed but implementation capabilities be done in quite different operational environment. Conclusion IEEE principles of conduct has to be followed by all IT professionals irrespective of number of employers being served. Where technology is being borrowed from one company to the other, copyright rules should be followed. Best IT professional practices helps in delivering quality services to all clients.
