Saori was born in Japan to a Catholic mother and father with no religion. She lived in several countries between ages 5 and 17 including Japan, Bolivia, Mexico, El Salvador, and now the Philippines, and was exposed to Catholicism through religion classes and attending Catholic schools in some countries. As a result, she does not firmly commit to any single religion but believes in God and has a moral basis from her Catholic upbringing, taking influences from the various religions and cultures she was exposed to through living in different countries and attending international schools.
Ayane was born in Malaysia to Buddhist parents but exposed to Islam as a child. She attended mixed Japanese schools in Malaysia, Singapore, and the Philippines between ages 7-15 where she was introduced to different religions but did not feel connected to any. As a teenager in Japan and the Philippines, she remained confused about religion due to cultural influences. She now identifies as agnostic and is open-minded towards all religions due to her diverse cultural experiences from a young age moving between countries in Southeast Asia and Japan.
To what extent does classroom location influence student engagmentTom McLean
1) Students at the International School Manila have classrooms spread across four floors, requiring students to climb many stairs between classes.
2) The experimenters hypothesized that climbing stairs between classes would make students more fatigued and lower their mental abilities at the start of the next class.
3) The experiment tested reaction times of two students after climbing stairs from different floors, finding that reaction times increased with the number of stairs climbed, supporting the hypothesis that physical activity impacts learning.
Mikel was raised Catholic as both his parents and grandparents are Catholic. He attended a private religious school and mass until 7th grade. He has a diverse group of friends from different ethnicities and religions. Mikel has lived in Illinois, Manila, and visited Europe and Asia, experiences that have influenced his views on religion. In 7th grade, Mikel began questioning his faith and noticing flaws in religion, and he has been influenced more by pop culture and media than his religious family.
Kat Herrera was indirectly influenced by Christianity through her grandparents. Her grandmother on her father's side was evangelical, while both of her grandparents on her mother's side were Christian. As a child, Kat was pressured to attend church by her grandparents, but her parents were not devout and did not force her. She had some exposure to Christianity through praying when sick and attending Catholic school in 6th grade, where she was forced to pray 3 times a day. However, moving to a school dominated by non-religious Americans made her more comfortable without religious rituals. Negative media portrayals of priests also impacted her views of religion. Overall, Kat was not strongly influenced toward Christianity due to her upbringing and environment
Which is the most congested area of the school canteenTom McLean
The students hypothesized that placing highly popular restaurants in a smaller enclosed area of the cafeteria would lead to crowding and congestion. They collected data on customer transactions at different restaurants and found that Allegro, located in the smaller area, had the most customers. Red Kimono, also in the smaller area, had the second highest customer transactions despite being in a smaller space than the main cafeteria. The data supported the hypothesis that popular restaurants in confined spaces result in congestion.
Tim was raised in a non-religious family and was not exposed to religion through his friends or education. While some teachers and his summer school teacher were religious, most were not. Living in areas like South Korea and the Philippines that are predominantly non-religious also influenced him. As a result of these experiences, Tim considers himself an atheist, though he is open to other religions due to some limited exposures over time.

Regions of Florida most at risk from Hurricane Irma include southeast coastal areas like Miami due to projected strong winds, heavy rainfall and storm surge that could cause flooding in densely populated low-lying areas. Maps of Florida's elevation, population density and Irma's projected path and impacts indicate southern regions are most vulnerable to the hurricane's dangers.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help alleviate symptoms of mental illness and boost overall mental well-being.
The IB Geography syllabus specifies several skills that should be mastered during the course. The skills are not assessed explicitly in external exams but they are assessed implicitly via data response questions and the expectations of quality essays. The internal assessment based on geographic fieldwork and geography extended essays are the main ways that students have opportunity to demonstrate their geographic skills.
Sri Lanka has made extraordinary progress in eliminating malaria, reducing cases from over 500,000 in the early 20th century to just 17 reported cases in 2015. However, malaria elimination faces ongoing challenges, as imported malaria from travelers and migrants is increasing. Sustaining malaria elimination requires continued vigilance, such as ensuring all cases are properly treated according to guidelines, conducting case investigation and response, and preparedness for potential outbreaks. Cooperation with neighboring countries is also important to address the ongoing risk of imported malaria hampering elimination efforts.
This document discusses different methods of disease transmission including direct contact, indirect contact through fomites, droplets, airborne transmission, fecal-oral transmission, and vector-borne transmission. It also outlines common strategies for managing disease spread, which generally involve identifying infected individuals, providing early and aggressive treatment, implementing quarantine measures, conducting mass education efforts, and performing immunizations.

Evaluating the impact of HIV/AIDS from the local to international levelsTom McLean
Within South Africa, HIV/AIDS prevalence is more than 18% in two of its districts and more than 14% nationally. It is a major cause of death in South Africa, where life expectancy has dropped from 64 years to 56 years from 1990 to 2017 due to HIV/AIDS. The epidemic heavily affects other countries in southern Africa as well. UNAIDS data shows that HIV prevalence in South Africa has stabilized in recent years after a major decline, but the disease continues to have significant economic and social impacts.

HIV/AIDS has had significant geographic impacts across local, national, and international scales in South Africa. At the local level, the disease has disproportionately affected the poor and black populations due to factors like poverty, lack of education, and sexual violence. Nationally, South Africa has seen its life expectancy drop dramatically and around 10% of its population is HIV positive, putting strain on healthcare resources. Internationally, HIV/AIDS has reduced life expectancy in many African countries and is now the fourth leading cause of death globally, with an estimated 36 million people infected worldwide mostly in developing areas.

The document examines the geographic factors responsible for the spread of HIV/AIDS in South Africa. It discusses trends in HIV prevalence over time as well as patterns across regions. Socio-cultural factors like apartheid, stigma, and gender inequality increased women's vulnerability and reduced access to services. Politically, former President Mbeki downplayed the epidemic. Economically, prevention was prioritized over treatment due to costs. Overall, the document analyzes how geography, socio-cultural issues, politics, and economics contributed to HIV/AIDS in South Africa with prevention emphasized more than treatment.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
