... then recognize the importance of the cognative and social approaches for learning and teaching so that she may aid the students' development in constructivist learning. Both approaches are valuable because one will emphasize the role of cognative processes and the other will emphasize culture and social interaction in the role of meaningful learning. One, however, may wonder how to go about enforcing these approaches. One method is through scaffolding, providing a student with sufficient information to be able to complete a task on his own or, to present a gradual decrease in the amount of help availible a ...

... you will do is use the distributive property to take away the parentheses. When you use the distributive property, your equation will be 14x- 8-8x+24=3x+31. Then you have to combine like terms. Now that you've combined, your equation will be 6x+16=3x+31. The next step is to subtract 3x from both sides. Now your equation will be 3x+16=31. The next step is to subtract 16 from both sides. Your equation has been reduced to 3x=15. The last step is to divide both sides by 3 and your answer is x=5. There are also many steps needed to check a problem. First, you rewrite the problem. Under that you write the pr ...

... the business system in their country. Their system is Communism, which means that the government controls all the production and distribution of goods. Therefore, when many Russian people go to a new environment or new culture, the United States for instance, they find it better than their country because it has a different system.

... workspace in any direction. The mouse also has a ball inside that rolls along the workspace. An electronic connection is also built inside the mouse itself to get power through the mouse in order to run. On the other hand, a trackball is named that because the user is able to move the position of the cursor around the screen using a ball. The ball is located on the topside of the trackball and movement is performed with the thumb instead of the whole hand that is easier and it consumes less time than using the whole hand. Therefore, the mouse and the trackball are different in their shape but they both perform t ...

... appears to be the overpricing of the longshot bets. If subjects are actually offered a monetary figure (hypothetically) by the experimenter to replace the gamble, they will accept this figure even though it is lower than the figure that they generated in the pricing condition. Tversky et al. (1990) further showed that this overpricing is largely due to a phenomena known as scale compatibility, which involves certain biases when the response required by the subject is in the same units as the factors influencing the decision. Since the payoffs of the bets and the buy-out prices assigned to them are both monetary v ...

... Bay has terrible communication and transportation systems, and Brampton has just recently developed their communication and transportation systems. In order to understand the direct link between infrastructure and the economy, which will be illustrated by the three cities, it is important to know the history of transportation and the economy. Land transportation first began with the carrying of goods by people. The ancient civilizations of Central America, Mexico, and Peru transported materials in that fashion over long roads and bridges. The first road vehicles were two-wheeled carts, with stone disks as wheels, u ...

... to use to ease housing costs, making houses affordable for homeless people. More houses could be built and old ones renovated or replaced. Old boarded-up buildings could be torn down and new apartments would take its place. Empty lots can be transformed in to affordable and clean rooms. Thus, more houses lowers the costs to buy one which, in turn, allows more people to move in off the streets. If home cannot be built, existing shelters could use food and medical aid. Shelters for the homeless are in bad shape and need the extra money to clean up the area. Many people talk about a drug-free America, includ ...

... moral individualism, freedom of choice, responsibility, alienation. Fundamental to understanding existentialism is the conception of moral individualism. Existentialism rejects traditional ethical endeavors. Philosophers since the time of Aristotle, circa Third-Century B.C.E. (before the common era), have held that everyone should aim for a common peak of ethical achievement.
