Dictionaries
Dictionaries are resources for finding word meanings, parts of speech, origins, and synonyms/antonyms. The English language draws from French, Greek, Latin, Germanic, Hebrew, and other influences. Dictionaries can be used to look up word meanings, translations, spellings, parts of speech, pronunciations, and more. Users should choose the best dictionary for their purpose, learn to navigate entries quickly and accurately, and know when to consult a dictionary versus continuing reading to determine a word's meaning in context.

English Composition Lecture Powerpoint.pptx
Here are a few issues I see with this outline:
- The thesis/main point is not clearly stated. It's unclear if the writer is arguing cellphones do or do not cause problems.
- The subpoints under I and II are not parallel. One includes a cause and effect while the other just states a problem.
- Some points are not fully developed (e.g. "Cellphones cause more people to need glasses" lacks support/explanation).
- Grammar and spelling errors make some points unclear ("cellphones can develop addictions" and "rewire the b").
- No conclusion is included to wrap up the argument.
Overall, this outline would benefit from clarifying the thesis

The session Carlo Beschi and I ran at 'The Agile Tour 17' in London on Effective Teaching in an Agile World
Finding Your Voice: Formal vs Informal Language
The document discusses finding an appropriate academic or formal voice when writing for college. It contrasts informal language with more formal academic writing. Key aspects addressed include using more precise language and descriptive verbs, adopting a third-person point of view while occasionally using first person, and practicing revising writing to eliminate informal phrases and word choices. The purpose is to help writers communicate effectively for educated audiences in a college setting.
Idioms_and_figures_of_speech.ppt
This document discusses slang, idioms, and figures of speech. It explains that slang is informal vocabulary used between friends that changes with age. Figures of speech use words to create mental images rather than literal meanings. Idioms also change over time as different age groups use different expressions. Understanding literal meanings can cause problems for language learners. The document provides examples of old idioms and their meanings to illustrate this concept. It then gives directions for an assignment where students will provide idioms they use, illustrate them literally, and explain their actual meanings.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.
