I conducted a survey through Survey Monkey and received responses from 30 friends of varying ages to understand audience expectations for different film genres and ratings. The results showed that most respondents thought a thriller film deserved a 15 rating. As psychological thriller was a popular genre, and a house was a preferred location, we decided to create a 15-rated psychological thriller set in a house. The survey also provided insights into what age groups prefer modern versus classic thriller films, and how a trailer could help promote the film.

La práctica consistió en determinar la molaridad de tres soluciones ácidas desconocidas mediante valoración ácido-base con hidróxido de sodio de concentración conocida, usando dos indicadores de pH, fenolftaleína y azul de bromotimol. Se midió el volumen requerido de la base para alcanzar el punto de equivalencia con cada indicador y solución, y se calcularon las molaridades obtenidas. Los resultados mostraron que el pH en el punto de equivalencia fue consistentemente 15.93-16 para ambos indicadores.
This document provides an abstract for a research study that investigated leadership challenges in system implementation processes at a large Swedish government organization. The study aimed to understand why such processes often fail despite extensive research. It collected data from leaders and users involved in implementing a new digital recruitment system. The research highlighted the complexity of implementation processes and found no simple or straightforward answers. Rather, it emphasized the need to allow for complexity and consider multiple perspectives to understand how people experience and make sense of changes in their work.

The document discusses strategies to prevent medication dispensing errors which injure or kill over 770,000 people annually. It identifies potential errors at each step of dispensing including data entry, preparation, checking, and delivery. Environmental factors like workload, organization, and 24/7 access also increase dispensing errors. Errors can occur from ambiguous documentation, dosing mistakes, incorrect patient information, interrupted dispensing, and failing to double check products. The document recommends strategies like independent double checks, self-checking, tall-man lettering, barcoding, and stickers on high-risk drugs to prevent dispensing errors.
The magazine cover uses a bold sans-serif font to make the text stand out against the images. The font choice gives the impression that the content is serious, reflecting the serious nature of school. The title is displayed in the largest font at the top of the cover to draw the most attention. There is more text than images filling the page.

The layout and content of the magazine are conventional, with the title at the top and articles about common school topics.
This magazine issue features a cover story on a tour poster image. The table of contents lists multiple featured articles with accompanying images throughout the issue. Additional articles and images are presented toward the back of the magazine.
This document discusses key elements of a successful capstone project proposal for a graduate program. It outlines the program outcomes that students should gain knowledge and experience in, including how to research, write in APA style, and apply course themes to papers. For the capstone proposal, students need to demonstrate an understanding of the program outcomes, how their project topic will address the outcomes, what type of information and data they will use to do so, and what sources they will draw from.
This session will look at the Numeracy and Mathematics outcomes for early, first and second level. It will provide the background to the commissioning statement, subsequent writing process and the quality assurance procedures.

25. ALIGNMENT ?
ALIGNMENT is a notion of BALANCE,
PROPORTION, EQUILIBRIUM
& MEANINGFULNESS of a thesis
With it`s Scope , Structure & Language
In HARMONY within the

27. WHY FRAMEWORK ALIGNMENT
APPROACH?
GUIDES the WRITING PROCESS Beginning to End.
THESIS
WRITING
IS...
NOT a process of trial & error nor a product of
chaos or incidental untutored skills.
NOT a boundless creative activity, unplanned,
impetuous, whimsical & limitless.
both science & arts : structural & creative-driven
somewhere between pragmatics and
imagination
a systematic & creative intellectual effort driven
by scientific & artistic creativities.
WHAT to PUT IN & What to KEEP OUT
28. More WHY FRAMEWORK ALIGNMENT
APPROACH?
GUIDES the WRITING PROCESS Beginning to End.
Thesis
writing
should be
a structured process midway between hands-on
and hands-off approach.
a structured writing plan with clear boundary
and plenty of rooms for creative intellection.
a structured process within its own timeframe
a structured plan that lessen digressions,
irrelevance and redundancies
WHAT to PUT IN & What to KEEP OUT
WHAT you PUT IN becomes KNOWLEDGE
WHAT you LIKE but have to KEEP OUT are SPARE AMMUNITION
29. THANK GOD !
WE CAN MANAGE THESE ISSUES.
FIRST a thesis draft MUST BE READY !
We can DEMYSTIFY its WRITING by exposing its
TEMPLATE.
DIAGNOSE & REMEDY its SCOPE & STRUCTURE
issues.
Resolve LANGUAGE issues by properly WORD
the IDEAS.

scope, structure & language in an
organic state of equilibrium making
it a meaningful & holistic academic
research.
