The document summarizes testimonies given to the Ashley Commission about child labor conditions during the Industrial Revolution. Elizabeth Bentley's testimony describes working 16 hours a day with only a 45 minute lunch and a 4 mile walk each day to and from the mill. Mr. George Armitage testified that female labor exposed girls to bad language and they did not learn skills to be good wives. The Ashley Commission argued against regulating female and child labor, claiming it unfairly singled out one industry and schools would be impossible given the number of children working.
The document discusses the author's magazine project on the genre of Bhangra music. It evaluates how the magazine challenges and follows conventions of real magazines. Key points include using few strap lines on the cover to show simplicity while still including them, including balanced images and text on the double page spread to follow conventions, and representing the Bhangra music audience and culture through the colors, images, and topics chosen. The author also reflects on learning Photoshop skills like using the sponge tool and the importance of following conventions to make the magazine look professional.
Symbolism uses objects to represent ideas beyond their literal meaning. A symbol both is what it is and represents something more, communicating emotion and meaning. Common symbols include roses, lions, babies, and water, which can each represent different concepts through their symbolic associations.
The document provides tips for students to effectively present their portfolios. It suggests including large prints of work, screen grabs, videos with details, photographs of sketchbooks, work in progress shots, 3D pieces from multiple angles, and experiments. Presentations should show the creative process, be tidy and organized, and highlight the best pieces to give insight into the student's skills and ideas.
The document discusses how the author's music magazine represents particular social groups. The magazine represents the junglist/raving community through its use of color, images, and cultural references. While stereotypes of the community involve camouflage and drugs, the culture has evolved over time. The magazine aims to show how ravers are now indistinguishable from other groups but still embrace elements of fashion and language from the oldskool scene. Images in the magazine feature artists representing modern rave culture through poses and jewelry that reference the lifestyle.
Zharfan Yek made a hole in the front part of a project using a drill, sharp pencil, rulers, and a semi-circle shape template. He had difficulty removing the blade from the coping saw but was able to do it with help from his teacher. He felt happy that his project was going well. Next, he plans to file some edges, get wood for the roof, and choose a roof covering material before assembling, sanding, and painting the lamp.

The document discusses evidence that global warming is occurring rather than global cooling. It notes that the Earth's temperature has risen 1.4°F over the past century due to increased greenhouse gases from fossil fuel burning. This is causing Arctic ice to melt 5% per decade and glaciers worldwide to retreat. Rising sea levels and more extreme weather are threatening coastal communities. While some argue for global cooling, statistics show the last decade was the hottest on record and temperatures continue increasing, indicating the planet is warming rather than cooling.
The student began working on their Movie It project by choosing wood and drawing a snail body and shell on the wood using a pencil. To make a perfect circle for the shell, they used a compass. The next steps will be cutting the snail's body, two shells, and wheels. The student enjoyed the process of measuring, marking, and starting to cut but was worried about completing all the cutting accurately.
This experiment tested how the size of a container's mouth affects the cooling rate of water. The hypothesis was that a wider container mouth would allow for faster cooling as more water is exposed to air. Water samples were heated to 90°C then cooled in containers with small, medium, and large mouths. Temperature was recorded every minute, showing the large mouth cooled fastest at 3.67°C per minute, while the small cooled slowest at 2.5°C. However, inconsistent results for the large container made the data unreliable. Improved methodology and more accurate temperature readings are needed for future experiments.
The skit introduces tourists to their guide Sung Ming in Shi Du, China. Sung Ming takes them to a local restaurant that uses sustainable practices like generating electricity from pig waste and growing their own food without pesticides. They then watch a performance about Chinese history. The next day, Sung Ming tries to take the reluctant tourists bungee jumping in Ju ma He Park. When asked, Sung Ming explains that Shi Du's economy now relies heavily on tourism, with many residents working in the park, hotels, restaurants, and other parts of the industry.
This 3-paragraph document summarizes a community in Shi Du and was written by 4 authors. It credits two photographers and two authors who wrote a skit. It also credits two individuals who made a PowerPoint presentation. The document concludes by apologizing if the information bored the reader and thanks the reader.
