Theory of knowledge (TOK) is a core element of the Diploma Programme that provides students 100 hours to explore the nature of knowledge and the process of knowing. In TOK, students reflect on the knowledge they have built from academic studies and life experiences. The course centers on knowledge questions that challenge perspectives on topics like evidence, interpretation, and the pursuit of knowledge. The TOK curriculum consists of the core theme of knowledge and the knower, two optional themes chosen by teachers, and five compulsory areas of knowledge. To explore these areas, guidance and knowledge questions are organized into four elements: scope, perspectives, methods and tools, and ethics. TOK includes two assessments: an internal exhibition and an external 1,600-
Grad And Core Requirements
To graduate from Albion College, students must complete several requirements including 32 credit units, a major, the CORE curriculum, distribution requirements, and pass a writing exam. The CORE includes 10 credit units across 5 areas - a first year seminar, 4 modes of inquiry courses examining different approaches to thinking, and 4 category courses focusing on specific topics. Students must also complete two humanities, two science, and two social science courses along with one fine art course. Students select a major from 25 departmental options, interdepartmental programs, or individually designed majors. Additionally, students can choose to complete a minor in another field of study.
English Language Presentation
The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) aim to prepare students for success in college, career, and life by establishing consistent guidelines for English language arts and literacy. The standards require students to read stories, literature, and more complex texts across subject areas in order to build critical thinking, problem solving, and analytical skills. They also promote literacy in history, science, and technical subjects by outlining the skills needed for college and career readiness across disciplines. While the standards provide guidelines, they do not mandate how to teach or fully define student readiness, and states determine how to incorporate the literacy standards for other subjects.
The Beginning of an Era Kevin Ollie
Kevin Ollie was born in 1972 in Texas and grew up in Los Angeles. He played for UConn from 1991-1995 under Jim Calhoun, leading the team to the Elite Eight as a senior. After his college career, Ollie played 13 seasons in the NBA before retiring in 2010. In 2012, he was named the head coach of UConn, where he had previously served as an assistant coach when the team won the national championship.

Adidas created a size conversion chart to help their global customers easily find the correctly sized shoes and apparel. Different countries and regions use different sizing systems, with an American size 7 being different from a UK size 7. The popularity of international sports teams has led to a growing worldwide demand for branded merchandise, but the various local sizing standards can make ordering online difficult. Adidas' chart allows customers anywhere in the world to determine their equivalent size in another region's system to ensure proper fit when shopping internationally.

La pandemia de COVID-19 ha tenido un impacto significativo en la economía mundial y las vidas de las personas. Muchos países han impuesto medidas de confinamiento que han cerrado negocios y escuelas, y han pedido a las personas que permanezcan en sus hogares tanto como sea posible para frenar la propagación del virus. A medida que los países comienzan a reabrir gradualmente sus economías, existen preocupaciones sobre posibles rebrotes si las medidas de distanciamiento social se relajan demasiado rápido.
NOS/HPS in Japan
1. The history of science and technology education in Japan shows a segregation between different communities like the history of science, philosophy of science, and science education.
2. The Japanese government determined the academic contents of education through curriculum guidelines and university entrance exams, which did not include the nature of science (NOS) as a subject.
3. As a result, the idea that science is fallible and shaped by human factors was not officially recognized in the Japanese education system, despite being discussed in some alternative media and popular science publications.

Logic Education for Philosophers: A Case in Japan
This document discusses the history and current state of logic education for philosophers in Japan. It provides background on several important figures who helped establish the logic tradition in Japan, including Ono Katudi, Takeuti Gaishi, Ishimoto Arata, Seki Setsuya, and Maehara Shoji. It then describes the development of logic textbooks in Japan from translations in the late 1980s to original works in the 1990s-2000s. The document also discusses factors like higher education policy changes and economic conditions that impacted logic education. Finally, it summarizes the results of a survey of logic education in U.S. philosophy departments.

The document provides an overview of Japan's education system from early childhood through university level. It notes that the Ministry of Education oversees education and outlines the main phases: kindergarten/nursery school, elementary school, junior high school, high school, and university. Elementary and junior high education are predominantly public, while high school has both public and private options. The education system places strong emphasis on academics, and parents are highly involved in early childhood learning. English education in particular has grown in importance for career opportunities.

Cuts to humanities and social sciences programs at Japanese universities have generated policy recommendations. While some see benefits to focusing on practical majors, others argue this narrow view fails to develop well-rounded, critical thinkers and loses important cultural and economic benefits. Recommendations include maintaining balance between sciences and humanities, using social sciences to address social problems, and leveraging humanities to attract tourism. Without these programs, societies risk losing important checks on power and sources of economic growth.

1) Japan faces challenges in balancing its relationships with the US, China, and North Korea due to shifts in regional power structures.
2) These challenges have arisen due to China's rising power challenging Japan's post-war bilateral security ties with the US, and North Korea's nuclear ambitions threatening regional stability.
3) In response, Japan has pursued more proactive diplomacy through initiatives like "values-based diplomacy" while still relying on its alliance with the US for security assurances against China and North Korea.

The document provides information about the Hokkaido University Short-Term Exchange Program (HUSTEP). HUSTEP offers undergraduate students from partner universities the opportunity to study at Hokkaido University for either one semester or one academic year. Students can take classes taught in English in various fields as well as Japanese language classes. The program also provides opportunities for independent research and cultural experiences. Students who participate in HUSTEP for the full academic year can apply for scholarships and have more course options compared to those who only participate for one semester.

This document discusses student mobility trends between Japan and the United States. It notes that while the number of Japanese students studying abroad peaked in 2004/2005, the numbers have since declined. Similarly, the number of U.S. students studying in Japan peaked in 2009/2010 but has also fallen. Both countries have a goal to double mutual student exchange numbers by 2020 in order to strengthen cultural and economic ties. The document examines some of the challenges around student mobility such as financial costs, language barriers, and differing priorities of students and employers in each country.Eas321 seminar 10
The document summarizes challenges facing Japan in its international relations, providing context and examples. It discusses Japan balancing its relationships with the US and China regarding security issues like the Senkaku/Diaoyu Islands and US bases. Structural factors like the post-occupation security treaty and rise of China create challenges, while agencies like MOFA prioritize maintaining the alliance. Norms of bilateralism have strengthened over Asianism or antimilitarism. Examples provided on how Japan has responded instrumentally include strengthening the US alliance amid China's rising influence.

Three months after CARME2015, I published the Japanese translation of Clausenâs âApplied Correspondence Analysisâ, published by SAGE Ohom-sha, which is the famous scientific publisher in Japan. Fortunately, I received a lot of positive feedback to the translation.
I have recently undertaken exchanges with advanced researchers of CA, including those concerned with Hayashi's quantification theory.
In my talk I will report on the process of these exchanges and what I observed from their feedback.
The use of correspondence analysis in sociology is commonly viewed alongside Bourdieuâs âla distinction". However, there are problems in understanding such a view for translators of MCA and so Bourdieu perspective of the method, including statistical methods, was not fully understood except for a small number of researchers in Japan.
Despite this, we can recognise the new developments around MCA that have been made in recent years. In 2016, questions raised by Bourdieuâs use of MCA by Prof Kitada in "What is a Hobby for Society: Method Criteria of Cultural Sociology" , and in 2017 a Japanese translation of Tony Bennetâs âCulture, Class, Distinctionâ in which Bourdieuâs method was critically inherited and applied to British society was published.
On the other hand, improvements in the performance of personal computers, the widespread availability and expansion of the statistical language R, the utility of MCA has greatly improved.
In my presentation, along seeing these change of environments, I describe the current landscape of CA/MCA in Japan, and I will propose the educational program for undergraduate students to learn CA/MCA.

Language Needs: The Unaddressed Factor in Internationalization (i18n)
This needs analysis study examined the English language needs of 278 Japanese undergraduate students and insights from 12 instructors/policy makers at Osaka University. Key findings included: Students struggled most with listening and speaking skills like understanding fast speech and expressing themselves spontaneously. They reported having little opportunity to use English. Instructors agreed students needed improved communication skills for future careers. Both groups saw value in an online English for General Academic Purposes course to address issues like large class sizes and provide more speaking practice and feedback on writing. The study provides implications for developing an online EGAP course at multiple levels focusing on all skills.

This needs analysis study examined the English language needs of 278 Japanese undergraduate students and insights from 12 instructors/policy makers at Osaka University. Key findings included: Students struggled most with listening and speaking skills like understanding fast speech and expressing themselves spontaneously. They reported having little opportunity to use English. Instructors agreed students needed improved communication skills for future careers. Both groups saw value in an online English for General Academic Purposes course to address issues like large class sizes and provide more speaking practice and feedback on writing. The study provides implications for developing an online EGAP course at multiple levels focusing on all skills.

Language used in Different academic Discipline.pptx
Academic language refers to the specialized vocabulary and structures used in textbooks, classrooms, and across different disciplines. It differs from everyday spoken language. Each discipline has its own academic vocabulary related to its specific content, and structures for organizing writing. Understanding academic language, including genre, vocabulary, and structures appropriate for different texts, is important for reading comprehension and writing within a discipline. Teachers should pre-teach vocabulary to help students understand academic terms and concepts.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.
