Observations vs-inferencespart one
Students often have trouble understanding the difference between observations and inferences. This presentation starts by going over definitions of each term, as well as, the differences between quantitative and qualitative observations. The goal is for students to understand that observations are data, which is used to create inferences (preliminary conclusions) and evidence is when you use the data to support your inferences. A final point is made that inferences are preliminary conclusions, thus inferences can not be seen. The remainder of the presentation gives multiple photos for students to practice making inferences from data. This learning program is geared to K-12 students, but can also be used for introductory college courses in multiple subjects.

Our moon
The Moon is Earth's only natural satellite, located about 384,000 km away. It was formed 4-5 billion years ago from debris after a collision between Earth and a Mars-sized object. The Moon has no atmosphere and extreme temperature variations, and its features include mountains, rills, large impact craters, and dark basaltic plains called maria. It always keeps the same face towards Earth due to synchronous rotation as it revolves around our planet every 27 days.
Our moon
The document provides information about the Moon. It discusses that the Moon is Earth's only natural satellite, located about 384,000 km away. The Moon has no atmosphere or liquid water and experiences extreme temperatures. It has various features like mountains, trenches, craters formed by impacts, and dark maria areas filled with ancient lava. The Moon orbits Earth every 27 days while rotating on its axis at the same rate, so the same side always faces Earth. Lunar phases and eclipses are explained by the relative positions of the Moon, Earth and Sun. Tides on Earth are caused by the gravitational pull of the Moon.
Moon
The document discusses key facts about the moon, including that it orbits Earth and reflects sunlight from its surface. It also explains the phases of the moon, which are caused by the moon orbiting Earth as the sun lights different parts of its surface over the course of about 29 days. The moon's gravitational pull causes ocean tides on Earth. Diagrams show each moon phase as the portion of the lit surface visible from Earth changes from new to full to new again in a repeating cycle.
States, boiling point,_melting_point,
The document defines the three states of matter as solids, liquids, and gases. Solids have a definite shape and volume, with particles packed closely together in a fixed position. Liquids have a definite volume but no defined shape, with particles packed closely but able to move freely past one another. Gases have no definite shape or volume, with particles moving freely and filling available space. Changes between states are caused by increasing or decreasing thermal energy. Melting and boiling points are the specific temperatures at which a substance changes from solid to liquid and liquid to gas, respectively. Solubility refers to the maximum amount of a substance that can dissolve in a liquid at a given temperature, with the dissolving substance as the solute
Moon
The Moon orbits Earth and is illuminated by sunlight reflected off its surface. It takes approximately 29 days for the Moon to orbit Earth and undergo all its phases from New Moon to Full Moon and back again. The gravitational pull of the Moon causes ocean tides on Earth.
Jules gabriel verne mason cooper
Jules Verne (1828-1905) was a French author best known for his science fiction novels. As a child he dreamed of adventure but lacked support from his parents. He wrote about his adventurous dreams which led to two books published within 10 years of the American Civil War. Verne's reputation suffered due to poor translations misrepresenting facts in his books. He continued writing until his death from diabetes in 1905, with his brother overseeing publication of his later works. Verne is considered the father of science fiction for creating stories featuring technologies that later became real.
Rock Cycle
The document describes different types of rocks and how they are formed. Intrusive igneous rocks like granite cool slowly underground, while extrusive rocks like basalt cool quickly above ground. Sedimentary rocks like limestone and sandstone are formed from the compaction of particles over time. Metamorphic rocks like slate and quartzite are formed from the alteration of older rocks by heat and pressure in the earth's interior. Shale, limestone, and sandstone are common sedimentary rocks that are distinguished by their composition of mud, seashells, or sand respectively.
Tri-fold DBQ
The document provides instructions for completing a tri-fold DBQ layout. Students should include sample photos, typed text in a readable font size, and images from class resources. The middle section should use the template shown and include a map. Both the before and after sections require 3 pieces of evidence - one text, one image, and one of the student's choice, along with explanations for each. Neatness and adhering to the bullet point format are priorities, and the project is due on December 20th.
Unit Test Study Guide
The document is a formative assessment for a 6th grade science class on the topic of changing Earth. It consists of 24 multiple choice questions testing students' understanding of the layers of the Earth, plate tectonics, earthquake waves, and more. Key concepts addressed include the order of Earth's layers from outer to inner, increasing heat and pressure toward the core, properties of the inner and outer core, plate boundaries and motions, Pangaea, and earthquake terminology.
Intro to Tectonic Plates
The document discusses the layers of the Earth from the inner core to the crust, including the types of crust. It then explains that tectonic plates move due to convection currents in the mantle, with hot rock rising and cool rock sinking. There are three types of plate boundaries: convergent where plates move toward each other, divergent where they move apart, and transform where they scrape past each other. Hot spots in plates are used to track their movements over time.
Intro to plate tectonics
Earth's interior consists of four main layers from outermost to innermost: the crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core. The crust is a thin layer of cool rock that varies in thickness and supports all life. Below the crust is the mantle, Earth's thickest layer which is less dense than the core and grows softer with depth. The outer core is a liquid layer surrounding the solid inner core, with temperatures exceeding 8000 degrees Fahrenheit in both cores due to pressure and heat.
Moon phases
The document contains instructions to click on a telescope icon and rotate a green circle. It also contains instructions to click on a moon icon twice to go to a page showing the phases of the moon, including images of the waxing crescent, full moon, new moon, and waning crescent moon phases.

CAKE: Sharing Slices of Confidential Data on Blockchain
Presented at the CAiSE 2024 Forum, Intelligent Information Systems, June 6th, Limassol, Cyprus.
Synopsis: Cooperative information systems typically involve various entities in a collaborative process within a distributed environment. Blockchain technology offers a mechanism for automating such processes, even when only partial trust exists among participants. The data stored on the blockchain is replicated across all nodes in the network, ensuring accessibility to all participants. While this aspect facilitates traceability, integrity, and persistence, it poses challenges for adopting public blockchains in enterprise settings due to confidentiality issues. In this paper, we present a software tool named Control Access via Key Encryption (CAKE), designed to ensure data confidentiality in scenarios involving public blockchains. After outlining its core components and functionalities, we showcase the application of CAKE in the context of a real-world cyber-security project within the logistics domain.
