This document discusses using pictorial models like Venn diagrams and block models to help students solve word problems algebraically. It provides examples of using these models to represent relationships and operations in word problems involving sets, fractions, comparisons, and changes over time. Venn diagrams are used to find quantities within sets, while block models visually partition quantities to set up and solve equations. The examples illustrate how translating problems pictorially can help students develop algebraic skills needed to solve more abstract word problems.

Our ability to learn new ways to think is the power of human potential. We have to make choices about the types of thinking that we apply to a
variety of different challenges.
Critical Thinking is the act of examining a set of facts and analyzing and evaluating relevant information. We live in a knowledge based society, and
the more critically you think the better your knowledge will be. Critical Thinking provides you with the skills to analyze and evaluate information so
that you are able to obtain the greatest amount of knowledge from it. It provides the best chance of making the correct decision, and minimizes
damages if a mistake does occur. Critical Thinking will lead to being a more rational and disciplined thinker. It will reduce your prejudice and bias,
which will provide you a better understanding of your environment.
This workshop will provide you the skills to evaluate, identify, and distinguish between relevant and irrelevant information. It will lead you to be more
productive in your career, and provide a great skill in your everyday life.
Lastly, critical thinking skills will support your capacity to be innovative. Once you fully understand what it is, you can begin exploring what could be.
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to answer the following questions:
1) What is critical thinking?
2) How can I use nonlinear thinking strategies?
3) What does it mean for me to apply logic to situations?
4) How do I know when, how, and why to think critically about a challenge?
5) What skills allow be to better evaluate facts and data?
6) How will thinking differently effect my decision outcomes?
7) How can I challenge my self to see alternate perspectives?
8) How can I increase my problem solving abilities?

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

4. USING PICTORIAL MODELS TO SOLVE
WORD PROBLEMS
• Translating word problems into algebraic
equations is a skill not easily acquired by
students in the higher elementary and lower
secondary school.
• Formulating and manipulating algebraic
expressions require a level of abstraction which is
not easily attained by students.
• The use of pictorial representations connects
better with the intuitive perception of students,
helping them understand relationships between
the quantities involved in the problem and leading
them to a strategy in solving it.
5. Using Venn Diagrams
• One of the pictorial models that are useful
in finding relationships between sets is the
Venn Diagram.
• Having a visual model of the sets in
consideration provide an efficient way of
determining cardinalities of said sets.
6. Example 1
• A grade six teacher asked her class of 42 students
when they studied for her class the previous
weekend. Their responses were as follows:
• 9 said they studied on Friday
• 18 said they studied on Saturday
• 30 said they studied on Sunday
• 3 said they studied on both Friday and Saturday
• 10 said they studied on both Saturday and Sunday
• 6 said they studied on both Friday and Sunday
• 2 said they studied on Friday, Saturday, and
Sunday
7. Example 1
• Assuming that all 42 students responded and
answered honestly, answer the following
questions:
• How many students studied on Sunday but
not on either Friday or Saturday?
• How many students did all their studying on
one day?
• How many students did not study at all for
this class last weekend?
9. Example 1
Assuming that all 42 students responded and
answered honestly, answer the following questions:
How many students studied on Sunday but not on
either Friday or Saturday?
How many students did all their studying on one day?
How many students did not study at all for this class
last weekend?

• There are 40 GORGS and 30 GOOPS.
• No GORG is a GOOP.
• How many GORPS are neither GOOPS
nor GORGS?

16. Singapore Model Method or
Block Model Method
• The Model building approach to solving
word problems was developed locally years
ago by Hector Chee, a very experienced
Mathematics teacher, and has been widely
used in the teaching of math in primary
schools in Singapore.
• Kids in Singapore are introduced to the
method from as young as Primary One (the
equivalent of Grade One).
17. Part-Whole Model
• In this model, a whole is divided into two
or more parts.
• When the parts are known, we can find
the whole by addition.
• When the whole and one part are known,
we can find the unknown part by
subtraction.
18. Example 5
• Donna spent PhP240 on a photo album.
When she spent 3/8 of her remaining
money on a novel; after which half of her
money was left.
• How much did Donna spend on the novel?
• What fraction of her money did Donna
spend on her photo album?
19. Example 5

23. Comparison Model
• In this model, two or more quantities are
compared.
• If the two quantities are given, we can find
their difference or ratio.
• If one quantity and either the difference or
ratio is given, we can find the other
quantity.
24. Example 7
• JB, James and Joseph collected 242
soda cans for the school recycling
campaign.
• James collected twice as many soda
cans as JB.
• Joseph collected four times as many
soda cans as James.
• How many more cans did Joseph collect
than JB?
25. Example 7
• JB, James and Joseph collected 242 soda cans for the school

30. Before-After Model
• When a quantity or quantities change, a
comparison is made between the new
value(s) and the original value(s).
• This is sometimes combined with the
comparison method in the more
complicated word problems.
31. Example 9
• Mike and Sarah had a total of PhP540.
• Mike spent PhP240. He now has three
times as much money as Sarah.
• How much more money had Mike than
Sarah at first?
