The document discusses the pros and cons of using clickers, which are devices that allow students to electronically respond to questions during class. Clickers can benefit learning by making class participation and assessment more interactive. However, they may also present drawbacks such as technical issues and increased costs for students. The research aims to identify both the positive and negative impacts of using clickers from the perspective of college students.

The video is all about the life of student athletes as a student and as an athlete and how they balance
it. The documentary includes experts who guide the student athletes in their career and the student
athletes who explained for themselves. It shows the role of education in student athletes' life and
how important it is for their future career. The role of being an athlete to represent their school
during seasonal games and the pressure from the people around them can be seen in this
documentary.

From the beginning of the video, the coach of the team announced that one of his players cannot
attend the game for some reasons, and this reason was the player has a biology test to be taken that
day. Basically, that is what a student athlete is. People from the video believed that there was a
reason why they are called student athletes and why student comes first before athlete. They believe
that still, being a student is your first priority since they are still studying for college. But the real
deal is, these student athletes actually have more chance in admission for college than of those
regular students. A lot of universities search for student athletes to represent their school. And base
from the tests that the regular students got for an entrance test and the student athletes, still, there is
more possibility that a student athlete can get in and the regular student will not no matter he or she
got a higher grade. Yes, there is a lot more chance for them to get in but a woman in the video said
that they cheated. She admitted that these student athletes cannot even produce a paragraph or even
a simple sentence. This is one of the effects of being an athlete. They prioritize it than studying
especially during seasonal games.

Dogs are man's best friend. It is also believed that dogs are the descendants of wild wolves. Since
the dawn of time, dogs have been very helpful to humans. They help herders to herd their cattle and
sheep, and their most reliable job, to guard their master's property. The oldest known breed of dog is

It's edibility for humans is possible and it can supply many nutrients like protein, iron and zinc. In
these research, the researcher answered these specific questions: 1. Does dog food contain minerals
and nutrients? 2. Are there links to human's and dog's diet? And 3. Can it supply the human dietary
needs? For the first query, it was researched that dog food does contain several nutrients and
minerals like REAL MEAT, FISH, OR POULTRY, OMEGA FATTY ACIDS & FATS, and
ENERGY RICH CARBOHYDRATES. Next, it links to human's and dog's diet because of visible
similarities of some needs of dogs and humans, like of protein, fats, vitamins, and proper hydration.
Lastly, it can supply human dietary needs as the food pyramid provides comparison on what
human's and dog's need to thrive and survive. The researcher therefor concluded that dog food may
indeed serve as a feasible food source for humans as well. It is also recommended that further
studies regarding the same topic be conducted to expand the understanding of dog food as human

Solid
METHODOLOGY
Two experiments were done last time due to some circumstances that made the class to lack time
and to be late compared to the official class syllabus. The students were able to accomplished the
job by equally dividing the time into two. The first experiment was about Kundt's tube. In this
experiment, longitudinal sound waves will be produced in a metal rod and an air column. Using the
properties of wave motion , the frequency of the sound and the speed of sound in the rod can be
determined.
For this experiment setup, following materials are needed such as a Kundt's tube apparatus, a meter
stick, a piece of cloth, a thermometer, ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Therefore, the temperature is directly proportional to the velocity of sound in air. Comparing the
velocity of sound in the rod and the velocity of sound in air, the velocity of sound in the rod is
greater than the velocity of sound air since the molecular arrangement of solids are very much
compact that allows the waves to easily travel along the medium. The molecular arrangement of
gases is far apart from each other. Because of this, it makes it hard for the wave to travel the energy
from one particle to the other thus allowing the velocity of the sound to move slower.
SAMPLE COMPUTATION
Given:
Length of metal rod, Lr = 91.5 cm
Average length powder segments, La = 10 cm
Temperature of air, t = 26
oC
Young's Modulus of rod, = 9.1 x 1010
Density of the rod, p = 8400 m/s
Solution:
For Velocity of sound in air, using

Disadvantages in theatre arts are unlikely to occur because there will be less possibility that an actor
or a play write will commit mistake in or during a play. Some of the possible disadvantages is the
lack of time, this is a possible disadvantage a theatre can have because sometimes during practice
they spend a lot of time in their other stuffs to do, so they have limited time to practice the play.
Sometimes the play is given within a few numbers of weeks before the play so they will rush the
rehearsals and often miss the polishing part, so they are prone to make mistakes during the play. Lot
of theatre arts actors, play write don't actually get money from these theatre arts. They just do this
thing for their hobby and because it is their passion to do. That is one disadvantage of theatre arts.
Actually you don't make a lot of money in theatre because it is only just a thing that you do
passionately when you are a part of theatre arts. (Rogelio Braga,
