Preparing Your Prentice Hall Chemistry PowerPoint Presentation

Preparing Your Prentice Hall Chemistry PowerPoint PresentationThe PowerPoint presentation for prentice Hall Chemistry PowerPoint is one of the most important parts of the presentation, as students usually have to go back and read the notes the next day in class. I also like to use a prentice Hall Chemistry PowerPoint presentation that the students can use when they are done with their homework.My basic advice would be to use the PowerPoint presentation that includes some kind of material that is related to the topics of the class. However, you should be careful about what you choose, as many instructors will add in any lecture that you have just done without you knowing about it. So, if your presentation has been well planned, you will be able to avoid this kind of problem.You should also keep in mind that using the PowerPoint presentation that you have prepared, it is much easier to get all the points across to the students and do not need you having to re-write the presentation. Wh at you should do is to write down all the points that you want to make and then edit it as per your requirements.Another important thing that you should keep in mind when you are planning your presentation is that you should include all the points in it that are relevant to the science class. Therefore, when you make your Powerpoint presentation for prentice Hall Chemistry Powerpoint, you will not need to worry about missing out on anything that might be of interest to the students.This means that your presentation will contain good explanation about the subject, provide good examples, and be easy to understand. All these factors combined make your presentation stand out from other PowerPoint presentations.You should also be cautious about the kind of information that you include in your prentice Hall Chemistry PowerPoint. While most people tend to have two or three tables, a graph, and a figure, you should try to include at least five to six tables and graphs, two or three figure e xamples, and five to six lecture case studies.Other information that you should include in your prentice Hall Chemistry PowerPoint presentation are the audience, objectives, list of activities and practice problems. If you feel that you need to include more than these, you should decide whether you need a separate PowerPoint presentation, or you can insert them in your first presentation.In either case, your PowerPoint presentation should include some good introductory paragraphs, bullet lists, study groups, and lab activities. This will help you grab the attention of the students.

Why Is Tutoring Rewarding? Why Is Your Student Rewarding You?

Why Is Tutoring Rewarding? Why Is Your Student Rewarding You?Why is tutoring rewarding? A teacher's life is not like other people's lives. It's a life of constant work and constant criticism.Constant personal support from parents, friends, colleagues are essential to keep the teacher motivated. They need a job that keeps them physically active. However, he needs an adequate amount of daily exercise. In addition, he also needs professional incentives.Improvement of a student's academic performance is a very satisfying event. Once the student becomes more proficient, the teacher will feel that he has contributed a lot towards the development of the student. The motivation to improve in all subjects comes at times when one feels that the level of the student is rising.Graduates do not receive a lot of financial assistance to improve their careers. It's so expensive to retrain them, and they need motivation in order to continue their study.Tutoring also helps the student to grow up with a great sense of self-esteem. When a student is able to distinguish himself in the class, he'll be able to understand the thoughts of his classmates, and by virtue of that understanding he'll be able to understand the important aspects of himself. It also helps the student to improve in self-confidence, which will help him develop into a mature individual.There are several professional incentives that a teacher can get. Some of these professional incentives include promotion in an organization, training opportunities, such as for graduate education or even after school care, among others. A teacher can expect a high salary for the years of service. When the salary is doubled or tripled, one can feel proud.How does tutoring motivate you? Are you ready to make your own sacrifices for the good of your profession? If you are, then why is tutoring rewarding?

Six Helpful Pointers For Learning To Play Guitar Solos

Six Helpful Pointers For Learning To Play Guitar Solos Suzy S. What kind of preparation, thought, and practice goes into creating the best guitar solos? Take these six tips from Austin guitar teacher Samuel B. and youll be well on your way to guitar glory In reality, theres probably no way to effectively teach someone to improvise. At this point in the curriculum, the student is ready to begin exploring that mysterious terrain known as expression. Though the parameters (an understanding of guitar scales and corresponding keys) are necessities, youll be on your own at this point in ways in which you have not previously been. The good news is you will have already learned whole songs that youre now ready to jazz up with advanced touches. While artistry (virtually by definition) is something that should be met with minimal-to-no interference, Ive included pointers that should provide friendly encouragement to accompany your early development as a soloist. There are no right or wrong notes. Though youll want to remain firmly entrenched within the confines of a single scale (which you will have learned at the beginning of your guitar lessons) what you play is really up to you. Some notes do of course sound better than others, but the trick here is to create a melody as you would while singing to yourself. I  recommend starting with three notes only. After a while, youll be in a position to branch out. Envisioning what you want to play a few seconds ahead of time will improve your delivery. On more than one occasion, it was brought to my attention that the best guitar solos are the ones for which a mental map has been created. Understand that youre using your instrument as a means of communicating an internal message one that transcends the boundaries of spoken language. Your job is to articulate that message not with words but rather with a sequence of notes. Youre responsible for determining the sequence that best articulates your internal cadences. You can learn a lot by listening. “You can observe a lot by watching” is sage advice attributable to baseball legend Yogi Berra. Playing a great solo is a comparable feat of conscious imitation. The trick is here is to imagine yourself in the shoes of whichever guitar heroes youve picked as role models and to try and follow the thought patterns that inspired their specific choices of notes. This way, youll learn to implement those patterns in your own playing. There will always be new tricks to learn. While waiting for a student to arrive, I find myself puttering with a note pattern that was likely inspired by my fondness for the music of Stevie Ray Vaughan. Though Ive been a guitarist for nearly a quarter of a century, Im finding the specific pieces of his unique brand of musical bombast very difficult to assemble and imitate. Multiple tricks of unfamiliarity (quick changes in tempo for instance) play into the equation. Always be open to new ideas. Ever since I was a teenager, Ive made a point of not restricting my solos to a mere recitation of the notes of a scale. Ive combined notes (playing more than one at a time) and even bent them with the same finger. Ive also branched out into enharmonic ones on either side of whichever position corresponds to the solo effectively allowing my left hand to dance up and down the neck a bit. Accept no limitations. Im convinced that all of us have a tendency to impose limits on our speed, dexterity, fluidity, and knowledge. In other words, we have an innate desire to reach a certain plateau (a musical one in this case) and coast. The truth is that nothing is more potentially damaging to ones musicianship than coasting. Knowledge and skills are two things that should be steadily and actively pursued. Samuel B. teaches beginner  guitar lessons in Austin, TX. He teaches lessons face-to-face without sheet music, which is his adaptation of Japanese instruction (involving a call-and-response method).  Learn more about Samuel here!

The hierarchical organisation of old, with the boss at the top, managers in the middle and lowly workers at the bottom has a soon-to-be-reached expiration date.In the digital economy, people do not have to have just one career. Now more than ever, there are a variety of different career frameworks to choose from (permanent employment, freelancing, hybrid, entrepreneurial), and a person can move between these different modes throughout their life, and even run some of them in parallel.The future world of work will be shaped by certain key drivers, writes McCormack: globalisation, an economic power shift to the East and South, technology advances, energy security and t alent shortage. The nature  of work is being reshaped and we must recognise that if we are to thrive.How well is school preparing our children for the world of work? Photo Source: UnsplashThe Industrial Model of EducationUnfortunately, McCormack goes on to say that schooling has not yet caught up with this brave new world of work. According to him, our schools are simply continuing in the grand industrial-age tradition of converting free-thinking pre-schoolers into compliant cogs ready to slot into a system that no longer has a place for them. He isn’t alone in this harsh assessment.The educationalist  John Taylor Gatto  said in his  acceptance speech  for the New York City Teacher of the Year Award back in 1990 that:‘The truth is that schools don’t really teach anything except how to obey orders.’He didn’t blame teachers or a lack of money â€" Taylor Gatto felt it was simply that the school model made true education impossible.McCormack believes  that in order to equip yo ung people with the skills to do well in the future world of work, our education system needs to encourage risk-taking, promote self-ownership of one’s life, develop artistry, provide students with the tools to help them find their true path and encourage students to defend their ideas whilst also being open to new information and experiences. There is no place for conformity and risk aversion in this new world.What is Success?But before we rush to tear down the old system and replace it with one we feel will help students achieve success in the future, we should ask ourselves some questions:Are the old measures of success  still valid? Are high salaries, steady jobs and home ownership achievable or even desirable?Or could there be other measures of  a successful life? If we replace the word ‘success’ with ‘wellbeing’, how might that change the discussion?In ‘Top Five Regrets of the Dying‘,  a news article that has received almost 180k shares on social media, it is tel ling that  every one of the regrets people have relates to failures in relationships with themselves and with their friends and family.Failure to make enough money, buy a house or climb to the top of the career ladder don’t get a look in.

ACT English Tips

ACT English Tips At first, the English section of the ACT may seem insurmountable. You must select the best and most grammatically sound option from complex and sophisticated choices. At times, it may seem as though each answer is equally correct or incorrect. You will also be asked about the purpose, organization, and style of passages, which may be dense and difficult to understand. If you struggle in english you may want to consider an ACT english tutorwho can help you with your studies or aprep book. However, there are several strategies you can apply to the English portion of the ACT in order to make questions more comprehensible and to maximize your score: 1. Answer simple questions first Questions in the English section are ordered by their location within the passages, not their difficulty. As you progress through the selection, address easy questions first generally, these are ones that ask about grammar, punctuation, and sentence structure. Skip the more difficult problems those that ask large questions about the main point of the passage or the purpose of the author until you finish reading the piece and have a strong sense of its meaning. If you are stopped by a particular question, move on you will earn the same points for problems irrespective of difficulty, so do not waste your time on one when you could be quickly answering two or three in the same amount of time.Here are some great tips on how to prep for the ACT english sectionthat you may find useful. 2. Context is important Even when you are correcting grammar or sentence structure, it may be helpful to understand the larger context. If the answer has correct grammar but changes the meaning of the sentence or phrase, it is most certainly the wrong choice. If the underlined portion is only several words in length, read the entire sentence; if a sentence is underlined, skim the sentence immediately before and after in order to locate the context. 3. Finish the passage before moving on Time is crucial on this section and the ACT as a whole. Here, questions are related to one of five reading passages. If you return to a question later, you will most likely have to reread the selection to remember its content. This wastes valuable time. Instead, answer all questions in the passage before addressing the next piece, even if you have to make educated guesses. This is some great information onhow the ACT is scored that you may want to take a look a before taking the test. 4. Embrace the No Change answer On usage and mechanics questions in the English portion, you are presented with the option of choosing the original form of the underlined portion as the correct answer. Since the ACT gives equal odds to each answer choice on the exam, there is a 25% chance that No Change will be the correct response. Often, students are compelled to always choose another answer, or to believe that the No Change option is a trap. However, it is the valid choice one out of four times, so be certain to consider it when answering problems. 5. Eliminate answer choices This is a useful tip on all the sections of the ACT. Consider all four answers and then eliminate those that are clearly wrong. You will not have to compare all the possibilities in order to determine the correct one. Nor will you be influenced by an incorrect answer that is addressing a different grammatical concept or that is changing the meaning of the underlined portion. You may want to take a few ACT practice teststo help you prepare as well.

There are some stringent rules about English pronunciation, which should be followed if you want to be correctly understood.It can be challenging to understand the notion of the hidden tonic accent in English, and many words just have to be learnt individually. For example the word ‘read' which can be said in 2 ways, both have different meanings. This word has no accents or indications of how to read the word nor which pronunciation is correct until it is added to a sentence to give context.We see this occurs a lot in English, for example, why are two words that are almost identical (beard and heard) not pronounced following the same ru les?

If you already practice English, you probably already know about the different element s that are involved: • The pronunciation of English sounds. • The pronunciation of English words. • The rhythm of the sentence. • The intonation within a sentence.There different English sounds internationally. Photo Source: UnsplashIt is very likely that even with a grammatically correct sentence, that you have already been misunderstood, especially by a native English person. A significant part of proper pronunciation is practising the language and learning how to pronounce each word.Even native English speakers have to do this because how you read a word does not always equal how you say it. For example, ‘Southwark' which is an area in London is not said how it read. I used to see tourists come onto the bus all the time asking for South-Walk and no one knew what they were talking about. But once you learn that the area is called suth-ark, you can be immediately understood.In this case, you need to learn this word independently and add it to the long list of irregular wo rds in the English language.What Is The English Accent?English is one of the most commonly spoken languages on the planet, many countries speak English as a first language. All of which have their own expression of the language. To complicate matters further not only are there different English sounds internationally and different ways to pronounce words but also within countries you can find different pronunciations.Make friends internationally with people who are open to globalism. Photo Source: UnsplashIn the United Kingdom, the spoken accent between the north and south of the country as very different. For example, when I travel from London up to the north in Scotland, I do struggle to understand the English spoken there. While the English words have a similar meaning worldwide, the rhythm and the intonation do differ significantly in all parts of the English speaking world.So when we speak about English accents, it is better to try to focus on one country zone at a time. For ex ample, asking what is the English accent like in the united kingdom or the USA is a more straightforward question to answer although still too broad to give a sensible answer. The English accent is vast and varied all over the world.

Some common errors seen in English are: Pronouncing the ‘th' - This is one of the hardest sounds to pronounce in English, and it can be pronounced in a few different ways.Confusing the ‘L' and the ‘R' - these sound are often mixed up which gives a different meaning to the words altogether. For example Rice and Lice. Confusing the ‘W' and the ‘V' - This is often noticed when saying the word water or west. Again saying Vater instead of water gives your sentence a different meaning which could give confusion to listeners.The changing intonation with the letter ‘E' - Adding an ‘e' to a word changes the syllables, for example Not and Note although they look the same are not said with the same intonation. Not is said with 1 syllable and Note has 2 syllables. Silent consonants â€" Many words in the English language contain letters which are silent, words like Wednesday which are said Wensday. It is hard to know which words have silent letters as there is no structured rule to define how it works.Learning the words with silent letters is an excellent way to make sure that you are pronouncing words correctly.Frustration When Learning EnglishEnglish can be a very frustrating language with its different rules, lack of structure and disconnection between the pronunciation and writing of the language. This is perfectly expressed in the poem Our strange lingo(source: https://www.7spell.com/our-strange-lingo-a-humorous-look-at-pronunciation/).When the English tongue we speak. Why is break not rhymed with freak? Will you tell me why it's true We say sew but likewise few? And the maker of the verse, Cannot rhyme his horse with worse? Beard is not the same as heard Cord is different from word. Cow is cow but low is low Shoe is never rhymed with foe. Think of hose, dose, and lose And think of goose and yet with choose Think of comb, tomb and bomb, Doll and roll or home and some. Since pay is rhymed with say Why not paid with said I pray? Think of blood, food and good. Mould is not pronounced like could. Wherefore done, but gone and lone â€" Is there any reason known? To sum up all, it seems to me Sound and letters don't agree.The inconsistencies in English comes about because the language has been inspired by Germanic, Norse, French, Italian, Arabic and many more languages. Since we can't change the rules of English spelling and pronunciation, we might as well learn what we can and study hard to overcome them. Enjoy and good luck!

How to Stay Focused on Long Reading Passages

How to Stay Focused on Long Reading Passages Have you ever found yourself in the middle of a long reading passage on a standardized test, only to realize you havent internalized a single word? You look at the clock to find that six minutes have passed and then the panic sets in. No matter how many times you read the passage, you just cannot seem to grasp it. This is a common problem among many test-takers; after all, standardized tests are meant to challenge you. Staying focused during standardized tests such as the SAT and ACT can be challenging, but comprehending these long reading passages is key. Here are a few tips on how to stay focused during the much-dreaded long reading passages on standardized tests. [RELATED: ACT Reading Tips] Practice One way to stay focused is to prepare for the exam by taking practice tests. The more practice you have under your belt, the more likely you will recognize how short of a time period you actually have to complete the standardized test you are taking. There is nothing like a bit of nerves to keep you on track and remind you that time is ticking. Notes Another way to remain alert during the entire length of a reading passage is to write notes along the way. Obviously, you do not have time to summarize every detail you read, but a note here and there will aid you in understanding the text overall. This method takes practice, so be sure to implement it into your strategy before the actual day of the test. Figure out the type of notes that are most helpful for you to have once you finish the passage. Perhaps making a note when you find an interesting sentence is a good way to jog your memory. Or you could try noting the moment you encounter a new character or intriguing quote. However you choose to apply this method, stick with it. It likely wont benefit you to change your process midway through your exam. If you find yourself daydreaming, return to the last note you took and begin reading from that pointit sure beats having to start all over again from the beginning of the entire passage! Ask questions in your head If you feel note-taking absorbs too much of your time, consider asking yourself some checkpoint questions while reading the passage. These questions you ask yourself should be personalized, but here are a few examples to work from: What is the main point of this paragraph? What are the most important details here? Is this important or is it just additional background information? Who is speaking at this moment? Was this an example of a particular literary device? Can I summarize this paragraph in one sentence or less? Why is this section included in the passage? Asking questions forces you to engage with the text, not just glaze over it. If you find that you are struggling to answer even the most basic questions about a section of text, it is probably safe to say that you should go back and reread. Balancing time and reading can be a challenge, but just remind yourself that you must understand the text in order to truly succeed on the test. [RELATED: How to Interpret a Reading Assignment] Mouth the words While reading out loud would be a stellar strategy to use during a standardized test, it would be quite distracting to your fellow test-takers. However, one strategy you can implement while going through a long reading passage is to mouth the words as you read them. Yes, you may look a bit strange, but does it really matter? Moving your lips as you read is going to help you slow down (a reasonable amount) and concentrate on every single word. By doing this, you will hopefully be able to stay focused and follow a good reading pace for the entire passage. Finding the best strategy for you is a matter of practice. Once you figure out the tactic that works for you, use it consistently.
