Chemistry Syllabus
Chemistry SyllabusA chemistry syllabus should include the principles, as well as the processes involved in the study of chemistry. There are three components in a chemistry syllabus; the theory, the laboratory and the experimentation. In the laboratory, one can do experiments to confirm the results of the theory or present the results.The theory part should be based on the known principles. The experiment part deals with the scientific theories that have been discovered to date. In the laboratory, you can use these theories to discover how the substances react. It is important to know your limits because the reactions will get out of control if you try to build up to the point where the reactions become dangerous.If you are looking for a science teacher, it would be better if you approach him with a chemistry syllabus to hand. You can also ask a chemical engineering professor or any other lecturer to be the one to give the structure of a good syllabus. These teachers can guide you an d can create a good chemistry classroom environment.Before we go ahead, let us identify why it is important to study chemistry and also prepare you for the examination, CNA (Chemical Nursing Assistant). It is essential to have this certificate to support a career in nursing because the profession is very popular now. In fact, many graduates choose a nursing career as a career.Students with a certain science background, who have a passion for chemistry, can easily excel in this field. At the time of passing the exam, you will be required to check the concentration and theory. You will be expected to answer several questions on the theoretical part. It is possible to find an online source, where you can learn how to prepare for the exam.Hale College of Engineering offers two different degree programs. They have very competitive entry requirements and, hence, have to maintain a fair balance in the applicant pool. So, they have some pretty demanding standards. When you enroll at the col lege, make sure that you check out the course syllabus for that particular degree program and follow it strictly.If you want to pursue a professional career in science, you need to be prepared for this exam. Make sure that you have enough time for reading the syllabus and preparing for the examination.

Personalized Learning and its Benefits
Personalized Learning and its Benefits Improving Academic Performance You can walk into any classroom today and see that different students struggle with different things. Some students at the elementary school down the road might have a hard time doing fractions during math class while others might struggle with remembering the capitals of all 50 states. Maybe a college student is in an Intermediate Accounting class, but her previous professor from Intro to Accounting only went over straight-line depreciation and never mentioned double-declining depreciation. She lacks that foundation she needs to succeed in her class. It is not her fault. Her previous professor just decided to emphasize a different topic of accounting instead. Personalized learning is important because each student has his or her own individualized needs and focus areas to reinforce. Students learn in different ways. They come from different backgrounds. They even have varying academic foundations. When it comes to a studentâs education, one-size does not fit all. More effort will have to be put into identifying topics and subjects that each student individually struggles with. Maybe it is a teacher, a professor, or a tutor explaining it to them in a different way by using a visual graphic instead of writing it out on a white board. Maybe it means going over that biology material a few extra times to make sure the student understands it. Maybe it comes to a few extra hours of studying those GRE vocabulary words to guarantee you really have them down. Thankfully there are many great opportunities, services, and tools out there to help personalize the learning of each student. Professors have office hours that students can attend and ask questions. Teachers are normally in their classrooms during lunch. Both of these options are both a) remarkably underutilized by students and b) completely free. These two options should be considered step one to improving your academic performance. Private tutoring is, in many ways, the gold standard of customized instruction, but it can be expensive. However, there are also great online learning tools out there to help personalize the learning experience for each student. Kahn academy is perhaps the most popular. Itâs free, and has a fast growing library of high quality, on demand video content in a wide variety of subjects. It allows a student to build their own study plan around the concepts they might be struggling with. Magoosh, ePrep, and Leanerator offer low cost, video-based, adaptive test prep environments for the ACT, SAT, GRE, GMAT, and many AP tests. Most of these solutions offer content and unique technology solutions to allow a student to customize their learning experience with varying degrees of structure. Administrate has a great video on personalizing education using technology. Our Memory Science platform is a different type of online learning tool. It uses key tenants of neuroscience to deliver Byte-Sized chunks of information that help students learn and retain anything that they might struggle with. A student can create a supplement herself to help her remember the process of a reaction in O-Chem, or purchase premade content on macroeconomic theories. The Memory Science platform is a place for you to spend time on the topics and materials that matter to you. About the Author Memory Science is a neuroscience-learning platform that utilizes Byte-Sized Learning to help students learn efficiently, retain more, and perform better.

Morning Mix Florida professor fired over Harvey comments, 'Despacito' and tailgating tips CAR-T therapy is providing hope to many people touched by Lukemia (Image: YouTube/Sloan Kettering) The Food and Drug Administration called the approval of a treatment that genetically alters the white blood cells of a cancer patient to battle a form of leukemia a historic action. Forbes reports that The decision is a milestone for new technologies aimed at fighting disease, but is also likely to deepen the controversy over the cost of new medicines. Novartis, a Swiss drug giant, said on a conference call that it would charge $475,000 per patient. âWeâre entering a new frontier in medical innovation with the ability to reprogram a patientâs own cells to attack a deadly cancer,â said FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb in a prepared statement, according to Forbes. âNew technologies such as gene and cell therapies hold out the potential to transform medicine and create an inflection point in our ability to treat and even cure many intractable illnesses. At the FDA, weâre committed to helping expedite the development and review of groundbreaking treatments that have the potential to be life-saving.â UNIVERSITY OF TAMPA PROFESSOR FIRED OVER REMARKS ABOUT HURRICANE HARVEY Harveys floodwaters contain a toxic stew (Image: YouTube screenshot/BBC) Kenneth Storey, a visiting assistant professor of sociology at the University of Tampa, was dismissed after he sent a tweet that implied that Hurricane Harvey was karma for the state voting Republican, according to The Chronicle of Higher Education.

Columbus Day
Columbus Day On Monday October 14th we will celebrate another Columbus Day. Although Columbus Day is actually the 12th, we celebrate it on the 14th so we get another three day weekend. Yeah, lets hear it for more holidays. Now I do not want to be one of those American history haters, although I was disappointed when I learned, in college, half the stuff I learned as a child was made up. Itâs kind of like politics now, and then. In 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue ⦠yada yada yadaâ¦. Well OK what is the historical Columbus then? Iâm glad you asked, but I will leave out the gory details. For starters, as we all know, his first trip of discovering America was actually to find a route to the markets of eastern Asia. His success of this new route would have made him very wealthy. Of course what he did discover was the Caribbean, which at the time didnât offer much in the way of riches in gold or trades. Because he didnât really know where he was, the populace of the new world were called Indians, old Columbus thought he was in India. Columbus called the island (in what is now The Bahamas) San Salvador. What ever actual island in the Bahamas he landed on is an unresolved topic; some possibilitys are Samana Cay, Plana Cays, or San Salvador Island (named San Salvador in 1925 in the belief that it was Columbus San Salvador). Since he ended up where he did, he had a theory, which he held onto his entire life, that was, not only is the earth not flat (not news by then) but it was pear shaped. This would explain his misguided adventure to the new lands. As we know he made a total of four trips to the new world, with colonization along the way. Including some raping and pillaging here and there. Columbus has been vilified and praised depending on whom and where, in history, you ask. He was a bit of both seemingly. He was an amazing sailor and navigator. He was a great captain and a horrible governor. He was kind to some Indians and horrible and cruel to others, as slavery was one of the profit ventures he partook in. Many of the things he was blamed for had nothing to do with him though. The looting and slaughtering of thousandsâ of natives of the Aztec and Inca nations were done by Conquistadors that had merely followed in Columbus footsteps. So the whole thing can be confusing as to celebrating Columbus Day. But this depends on your own point of view. Iâd love to share mine, but wonât. Either way itâs a day off. And that is worth celebrating!
Roong Aroon School
Roong Aroon School Roong Aroon School Roong Aroon schoolis a private not-for-profit organization. It was set up and accredited in 1997. The school is composed of three independent departments, Mixed kindergarten (ages 4-6), the primary school (grades 1-6), and the secondary school (grades 7-12). We are excited to begin development of an international programme, which is planned to open Years 7, 8 and 9 for the 2020-21 school year. Since the school promotes a cooperative working team, each department is separately managed by a headmistress/principal who can initiate her own teams considerable initiatives from teacher meetings linking different levels or from a Core Subject team approach. Based on the concept of the holistic learning process, Roong Aroon aims to provide a more natural environment and to promote creative practices that help encourage children at each age level to attain their own learning potential. Subjects are integrated into project-based learning modules, each over one trimester. Teaching and planning is collaborative, and there are frequent presentation and performance opportunities for students to demonstrate their achievements. The school is situated on fifty rai (twenty acres) of land on the outskirts of Bangkok in the Bangkhuntien district. The site is remote from the crowded and dense inner city. The buildings are grouped by department, and are nestled in a natural environment, with surroundings that are landscaped with abundant and airy greenery, fully accessible to all the students. Most of the area is developed to cater to both outdoor and indoor learning activities, supplemented by regular off-campus field study. Additionally, the school works diligently to have a low environmental impact. A schoolwide, multifaceted recycling programme has been in place for over a decade with continual improvements. Our school is a thriving community. Parents, teachers, and staff participate closely together to create a variety of lively and supportive activities. We believe that by maintaining a warm atmosphere among our own team of teachers, workers, parents, and children, the growth of a cultivated community is certain to be developed and sustained. In this way, our students understand the importance of community and their responsibility in maintaining a healthy, productive and inclusive community.

What Is Spectroscopy?
What Is Spectroscopy?Spectroscopy is the study of light, the invisible and incredible force that powers all life on Earth. The primary goal of this technology is to find the sources of certain forms of cancer and other disease.One of the most common applications of spectroscopy in organic chemistry is the determination of the absorption spectrum of a substance. To do this, it must be identified as being in one of its forms. For example, in organic chemistry, it can be analyzed as the radiation spectrum or as the electrical spectrum.As more chemicals are used in organic chemistry, these are becoming more difficult to identify. This is because the frequency range of these spectra varies from chemical to chemical. It is a result of how the different constituents of a material to absorb different wavelengths of light.To illustrate, if we would look at a typical plant, we could identify its spectral line as one that is six times longer than the wavelength of visible light. In order to ide ntify this, we would need to be able to distinguish between a visible and an ultraviolet spectrum. The purpose of spectroscopy in organic chemistry is to identify the chemical that is in its absorption spectrum.A whole new branch of science, chemical spectroscopy, has been developed as a way to simplify the process of identifying the substances of organic chemistry. In simple terms, this method of spectroscopy is an alternative method to spectroscopy that involves knowing the frequency, or wavelength, that a particular substance absorbs when exposed to the light emitted by a specific wavelength.The first major application of spectroscopy in organic chemistry came from the work of Sir Humphry Davy, who discovered the spectrum analysis of dyes. In his day, he was exploring what color came from the absorbing wavelengths of sunlight.Spectroscopy in organic chemistry has also benefited mankind in many ways. This new type of technology is instrumental in the design of new medical devices such as spectrophotometers, laser spectrophotometers, spectrospheres, laser spectrometers, spectrometers, spectrometers, spectrometric detectors, and spectroscopes.
