Nemzetközi foglalkozás / angol
In a session with children from different countries and levels of hearing impairment, several non-verbal games were played to help the children communicate and get to know each other better. One game involved introducing themselves using sign language. Another had the children touch colored body parts or objects to communicate colors. A third game used pictures of family members for the children to exchange and sit with their "family" when the music stopped. The games helped the initially tense children loosen up and interact with each other across language barriers.
Unisse Investigating Science 2
The software Investigating Science 2 aims to educate children aged 11-14 on science principles. However, the reviewer found the learning experience to be dull and boring, relying too heavily on long paragraphs of text read aloud rather than engaging activities. While the activities were colorful, they did not hold the reviewer's attention due to their standard assessment style. The software provides sufficient scientific details but would benefit from arranging topics by year level and using animations to illustrate concepts rather than slides. Interactive assessments during lessons could also help students learn from their mistakes.

How To Finance A Low Carbon Economy
The ICAEW hosted a roundtable discussion on financing a low carbon economy. Participants identified a lack of commercial and financial skills in cleantech businesses as a barrier to growth. They stressed the need for business support and improved investor relations. Investors are deterred by high risks in cleantech. The government must incentivize private funding and provide guidance on financing options. The regulatory environment also poses barriers and needs reform. Participants supported R&D tax credits and fiscal incentives to drive demand for green products. Government procurement was seen as important for stimulating cleantech investment and demand. The government should focus funding on creating clusters of excellence in specific cleantech sectors.

Sherhan Francis Sigmund Freud
Sigmund Freud was an Austrian psychologist born in 1856 who founded the psychoanalytic school of psychology. He is known for developing psychoanalysis, a clinical method for treating psychopathology through dialogue between a patient and analyst to uncover unconscious desires and repressed memories. Freud theorized that the mind contains three elements - the conscious, preconscious, and unconscious. The unconscious contains drives and instincts not readily accessible to awareness that influence behavior.
The Theory Of Learning
The document discusses Lev Vygotsky's theory of learning. Vygotsky believed that learning occurs through social interaction and language. He identified two main types of learning - interpsychological learning which occurs through interactions with others, and intrapsychological learning which occurs internally after exposure to new ideas. Vygotsky also introduced the concept of the Zone of Proximal Development, defined as the area just above a child's current skill level where learning can be supported by more capable others through scaffolding.

This document outlines an activity to have students share travel experiences in cooperative learning groups. The activity aims to have students learn from each other's experiences, prepare for potential problems when traveling, and build bonds. Students will be grouped and rotate through different topics in pairs or groups of 4-6 over 10-15 minutes. The teacher will ask questions at the end to get feedback on what was learned from the activity.
Tere Macky B.F. Skinner
B.F. Skinner was an American psychologist born in 1904 in Pennsylvania who developed the theory of operant conditioning. He argued that learning is a change in overt behavior caused by an individual's response to environmental stimuli and consequences. When a stimulus-response pattern is positively reinforced through rewards, the individual is conditioned to respond in that way. Reinforcement, especially positive reinforcement like praise or satisfaction, is the key element in strengthening desired behaviors according to Skinner's theory. While highly influential, some of Skinner's attempts to explain cognitive phenomena like language through behavioral conditioning were criticized.
Kc Jerald Robert Gagne
Robert Gagne was an American educational psychologist known for his theory of conditions of learning and nine events of instruction. Some key aspects of his career include developing the "Gagne Assumption" about how learning occurs, working for the U.S. Air Force during World War II analyzing learning requirements, and serving as the director of the perceptual and motor skills laboratory at Florida State University. Gagne proposed that learning outcomes should be broken down into a hierarchy and that internal mental processes in the learner must be achieved through external instructional events.
Mox Ernest Benjamin Bloom
Benjamin Bloom was an American educational psychologist who developed Bloom's Taxonomy, a classification of learning objectives within education. According to his taxonomy, there are six levels of learning: knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. The levels progress from basic recall or recognition of facts and concepts to the more complex abilities to apply, analyze, evaluate, and create new information or materials. Bloom's Taxonomy provides a framework for teachers to design lessons and assessments that help students reach higher levels of thinking.
Kye Aira John Dewey
John Dewey was an influential American philosopher and educator. He believed that education is life itself and that students learn best through experience. According to Dewey, education should provide students with real experiences that foster their ability to contribute to society. He also thought education should serve both an individual purpose for students and a societal purpose. Dewey's progressive ideas had a profound impact on public education in the United States.
Hanchie Troy Benjamin Bloom
Benjamin Bloom was an American educational psychologist known for his taxonomy of educational objectives. He focused on studying educational objectives and proposed three domains of learning: cognitive, affective, and psychomotor. Bloom designed his taxonomy to help teachers classify instructional objectives and goals, with the idea that not all learning objectives have equal merit. The taxonomy includes six levels of learning, with higher order thinking skills at the top to emphasize more important capabilities over simple memorization. Bloom believed that educational efforts are unsuccessful if student achievement is normally distributed.
Ballesteros Seymour Papert
Seymour Papert was a South African mathematician and computer scientist who was a pioneer in instructional media and artificial intelligence. He received degrees from the University of Witwatersrand and Cambridge University. Papert designed the Logo programming language to help children learn programming concepts through a simple turtle graphics program. He also helped create Lego Mindstorms, which combined Lego blocks with programming to make robotics more accessible. Throughout his career at MIT, Papert explored how technology could be used to enhance learning.
Jasper And Mike Howard Gardner
Howard Gardner is an American psychologist who was born in 1943 in Scranton, Pennsylvania. He is known for his theory of multiple intelligences which identifies eight types of intelligence: linguistic, logical-mathematical, musical, bodily-kinesthetic, spatial, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalist. Gardner received many honors for his work including a MacArthur Fellowship and being the first American to receive the University of Louisville's Grawemeyer Award in Education. His theory of multiple intelligences challenged the traditional view that intelligence is a single general ability and that it can be adequately assessed by standard intelligence tests.
Igoy Eirene Bf Skinner
B.F. Skinner was an American psychologist and philosopher born in 1904 in Pennsylvania. He studied psychology at Harvard and developed his theory of operant conditioning, which examines how behaviors are influenced by consequences. Skinner believed behaviors that are reinforced through positive or negative stimuli are likely to be repeated, while behaviors not reinforced tend to weaken and disappear over time. He applied his theories of behavioral conditioning to develop techniques for behavior modification.
Dj Nicole Jean Piaget
Jean Piaget was a Swiss psychologist known as the father of developmental psychology. He spent over 60 years researching cognitive development and proposed that humans progress through four distinct stages - sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational, and formal operational - as they interact with their environment and learn from their experiences. Piaget believed that learning is an active process where individuals construct their own knowledge and understanding through assimilation and accommodation.
Chrysia Johnny John Dewey
John Dewey was an American philosopher, psychologist, and educational reformer born in 1859 in Vermont. He received his PhD from Johns Hopkins University in 1884. Dewey wrote extensively about education and developed theories on education, democracy, functional psychology, pragmatism, and epistemology. Some of his major works included My Pedagogic Creed (1897), The School and Society (1900), and Democracy and Education (1916). Dewey viewed nature as continuously evolving and thought as an instrument to improve situations. He believed that education was equivalent to life itself.
Charles Jd Robert Gagne
Robert Gagne was an influential educational psychologist known for his work on instructional design and the conditions of learning. He received his PhD from Brown University and worked as a professor at various universities. Gagne identified five categories of learning - verbal information, intellectual skills, cognitive strategies, attitudes, and motor skills. He also proposed nine instructional events that should be followed when designing lessons: gain attention, inform learner, recall, present content, guide learning, elicit performance, provide feedback, assess performance, and enhance retention. Gagne's work was influential in the development of instructional systems design and based on B.F. Skinner's principles of sequenced learning.
Alyssa Jill Howard Gardner
Howard Gardner proposed the theory of multiple intelligences, which critiques the idea that intelligence can be assessed through standardized tests and instead proposes that there are seven distinct intelligences: linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, and intrapersonal. The theory validates educators' experiences that students learn in different ways and provides a framework to organize curriculum, assessment, and teaching practices to better meet the needs of diverse learners. Schools have applied the theory by structuring curriculum and designing classrooms around the seven intelligences.

This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Ysha Merriam Websters Spell Jam
- 1. Assignment Paper Post Activity: Instructional CD Review Name: Franco, Chrysia Rosalinda B. Date: July 27, 2009 INTRIST Section: S21 Merriam-Webster’s spell jam game is a game wherein the player will play against the computer or another human player. The game consists of spelling skills and vocabulary skills suited for the elementary students. Elementary students will not have difficulties in trying to spell the words. In fact, they will also learn new words and their meanings. Educational value in this game is highly recognized than the entertainment value. Educational value may be recognized in their features, like the spelling, vocabulary, history of the word and how the word is used in a sentence. If the player can’t hear the word, he or she can ask to repeat the word. Hearing the pronunciation of the word will teach the student on how each word must be pronounced. Next, if the player can’t still hear it, he or she may ask for the meaning of each and the history or how the word should be used in a sentence. If you do not have these skills, you will probably lose in the game. One thing that is very good in this game is that when you ask to repeat the word, the player in the game uses magic words. The sentences, “Can you please repeat the word” and “Can you please use it in a sentence” are sentences that are very polite. Elementary students who play this game will learn how to be polite. On the other hand, Entertainment in this game is still valued but the features are more on educating the person. Entertainment in this game is recognized via the animations, sounds and colors. Animations can be seen when the player will be put on the stage to spell a word, when he or she spelled it wrongly and the like. Playing this game with sounds is must, because if you play this without it, you won’t be able to spell it correctly and you will lose. The player should also know to read the words because other features need this kind of skill. This game having too much color is very entertaining for the elementary students. For logical version of this kind of game, I would suggest to make a Filipino version of this game. Having the localized version of this game is appropriate for kids in elementary students who have Filipino subjects, since they are the real target of this kind of game. This is logical for the elementary students because there are Filipino words that are not easy to understand and must-to-know words for the Filipino elementary students. It may not be as easy as the English words but the basic language that the Filipino students must know is their own language which is Filipino. As a college student, I could say that there are still Filipino words that I do not know, words that are already ‘buried’ and not used all the time. Being a Filipino, we must know our own culture especially the language culture. I wish that if the localized version of this game will be made, magic words will still be there.
