The Two Concepts in the Analysis of Liquids

The Two Concepts in the Analysis of LiquidsChemistry molarity and stoichiometry are two important concepts in the analysis of liquids. It is an important step to know the molarity of a chemical substance before it can be used. In fact, this element is a necessary component in many analytical applications. However, the molarity is less important than the equilibrium solubility and the stoichiometry.Both molarity and stoichiometry refer to the concentration of a chemical substance within its liquid state, or to the bulk concentration. Molarity simply means the volume of a chemical substance present in a single volume of liquid. In other words, the polarity can be viewed as the amount of water that can be found in a given volume of liquid.The ideal gas molarity is also known as the gas constant. The molarity of a chemical substance refers to the natural concentration of the substance in a given volume of solution. This value varies from one substance to another. It can also be defined a s the mass of water present in a given volume of solution.The clarity is also called the specific gravity and the equilibrium solubility for a chemical substance refers to the bulk concentration of the substance in a solution. Again, it has a different value for each substance and can vary depending on the extent of solubility. The equilibrium solubility of a chemical substance refers to the wetted area for a given bulk concentration.The molarity and stoichiometry refer to the same element, which is the concentration of a substance in a solution, and to the same element, which is the ratio of the volume of the substance in a solution to the volume of the solution. Both molarity and stoichiometry are just ratios and are both useful in the analysis of liquids. Molarity refers to the volume of a chemical substance present in a given volume of solution and stoichiometry refers to the ratios between the volume of a chemical substance present in a solution and the volume of a solution.The polarity can be measured by using a balance and weighing. It is also important to know the saturation point, which is the maximum concentration of a substance in a solution. By knowing the saturation point, you can calculate the molarity. Molarity can also be calculated by using a simple density procedure. Solubility depends on the element, the concentration and the volume of a solution.Some chemical principles refer to the relationship between the molarity and the equilibrium solubility and the molarity and stoichiometry. For instance, one law in thermodynamics states that the entropy in a system with a decreasing molarity is equal to the entropy in a system with a constant concentration.

How to Give Effective Praise

How to Give Effective Praise While giving praise to students of any age seems like an overwhelmingly positive thing, it is important that we know the best practices to effectively give praise, or it can actually backfire. Building confidence and showing an appreciation of a student’s efforts is a huge part of steady progress. With all this in mind, here are seven key qualities of effective praise.Praise is effective if it is1. Perceived as sincere, earned, and truthfulOver-the-top praise can actually cause a decrease in effort among students. Students can tell when praise is accurate and genuine. 2. SpecificBe as specific and concrete as possible, naming the behavior that you saw that you liked. 3. Not directive Here’s an example of ineffective, directive praise: “Good writing! Write that legibly every day.” Here’s a better example: “I appreciate that you took the time to write so legibly.” 4. Focused on process, not abilityHere’s an example of ability-focused praise that cultivates a fixed minds et: “Great job on your test! You’re so smart!” Here’s an example of process-focused praise that promotes a growth mindset: “Great job on your test! Your hard work developing a more efficient note-taking technique led to a much better absorption of the material!”5. ImmediatePraise is most effective if it happens right after the behavior, not a week later. 6. UnexpectedIf you repeat the same routine phrases of praise, it starts to become predictable and not feel as sincere. 7. Crafted with its audience in mind While all kids need praise, some prefer public (e.g. in front of parents or teachers) or private praise (i.e. telling them one on one that you appreciated that they used a strategy you recommended on their homework). Younger students tend to prefer public praise, where as older students tend to prefer private praise, but this can depend on the individual person.If you’re interested in learning more, here are a couple of helpful links:Making Sure Your Praise is Effe ctiveTeacher Praise: An Effective Tool to Motivate StudentsAt AJ, we find that 1-on-1 tutoring is a great way to apply targeted and personalized coaching to build confidence in school and on exams.

The importance of cultural intelligence (CQ) for teachers

The importance of cultural intelligence (CQ) for teachers Hey, teachers! We’ve got some fantastic insight on what could be the biggest contributing factor to your success as an (international) educator: “The number one predictor of success in today’s borderless world” is your “cultural intelligence” (David Livermore). Research conducted in 30+ countries over the past ten years revealed that those with high cultural intelligence - otherwise known as CQ - are more equipped to handle challenges in life and work, especially considering the global nature of contemporary society (Livermore). Experts have found that, regardless of your profession, even more important than your resume, your expertise or even your IQ is your CQ (Livermore). Before we launch into the importance of CQ for teachers - or culturally responsive teaching as it’s referred to in the education sphere - we’ll take a look at what CQ is in a broader sense and gain an understanding of which types of people are cut out to improve upon their own CQ. Then we’ll dive into cultural intelligence in the classroom and why culturally responsive teaching is so important for today’s educators. What is cultural intelligence? Soon Ang, a professor of management at the Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, and P. Christopher Earley, dean of the school of business and economics at the University of Tasmania, Australia, have defined CQ as “the capability to function effectively in a variety of cultural contexts” (BBC). David Livermore, who has conducted extensive research on the topic and wrote the book, The Cultural Intelligence Difference: Master the One Skill You Can't Do Without in Today's Global Economy, adds to the definition put forth by Ang and Earley as follows: CQ or cultural intelligence is the capability to function effectively in a variety of cultural contextsâ€"â€"including national, ethnic, organizational, and generational… a whole new way of approaching the age-old topics of cultural sensitivity, racism, and cross-border effectiveness. Composed of cognitive, physical, and emotional/motivational development, CQ draws on intelligence from your mind, body, and heart. Livermore explains that by improving your CQ drive, CQ knowledge, CQ strategy, and CQ action, you’ll contribute to a lift in your overall CQ. Let’s unpack each of those a little bit: CQ drive - your level of determination to operate in other cultural contexts CQ knowledge - your level of cognition about core qualities of other cultures CQ strategy - your ability to understand different cultural experiences and plan for future experiences CQ action - your ability to adapt your behaviour in different cultural contexts (IESE Business School, University of Navarra) Can anyone become more culturally intelligent? We know that, due to different life experiences, like living or visiting a wealth of places, each with their own unique cultural qualities, some people will have a naturally higher CQ than others. But, the big difference between CQ and other common measurements for intelligence, like IQ, is that anyone can improve their CQ. While improvement may be more challenging for some people than it is for others, CQ drive, knowledge, strategy and action are all competencies that any person can boost. On top of this, there’s no ceiling for the growth of your CQ. So much of your learning will be driven by experiences, like moving to a new city or country, changing workplaces, and meeting people who have different backgrounds from yours - and since you’ll never have every experience ever, there’s no limit to what you can accomplish when it comes to CQ. What does cultural intelligence look like in the classroom? In understanding the impact of CQ for personal and professional growth, and as educators and innovators in the international education space, our team at Teach Away got to thinking about what CQ looks like in the classroom. We wanted to discover how teachers could develop their CQ and apply it in their day-to-day. What we ended up with is an online course for teachers to improve their CQ. Culturally responsive teaching: Connecting with students and parents of different cultures is a CQ growth course built specifically for the education space. The course is the best way, other than experiencing diverse cultures, that educators can develop their CQ drive, knowledge, strategy and action. In an article I published last June, Why culturally responsive teaching matters now more than ever, I outline a real-life scenario to demonstrate what cultural competence at school might look like. I describe a situation in which you, the teacher, is unaware of a student’s cultural background and as a result are unable to grasp why a particular student is unable to participate in a class event. The scenario highlights how higher CQ drive, knowledge, strategy and action on the part of the teacher would have paved the way for a much more comfortable situation for the teacher, student and parents. You can read the scenario in full here. CQ in the classroom, or cultural competence, is “having an awareness of one’s own cultural identity and views about difference, and the ability to learn and build on the varying cultural and community norms of students and their families... the ability to understand the within-group differences that make each student unique, while celebrating the between-group variations that make our [world] a tapestry” (National Education Association). A teacher with a high CQ is capable or “empower[ing] students intellectually, socially, emotionally, and politically by using cultural referents to impart knowledge, skills, and attitudes” (Ladson-Billings). Why is cultural intelligence especially vital for teachers? Whether you’re teaching at home or abroad, cultural intelligence is a growing necessity for teachers. Teach Away’s 2017 article, Bridging the culture gap between teachers and their students, explains why CQ is so fundamental, and of increasing significance, for teachers in the United States: There is a cultural gap in many schools across the United States. The most recent projections from the Census Bureau shows that minority students will account for more than half of all students in US public schools by 2020. One out of every five students now speaks a language other than English at home. As a result of this significant student demographic shift, a growing number of US teachers are struggling with how they can better serve students from cultures other than their own. (Teach Away, PRWeb, 2017). Why is cultural intelligence important for expats working abroad? While a teacher’s CQ on home soil is primarily a key factor in serving students and families with diverse cultural backgrounds, CQ abroad can be incredibly impactful for expats in unfamiliar territory looking to settle into their new working and living environments. CQ has been identified as one of the most influential factors on expatriate job performance; “those with the highest initial CQ will find it easier to adjust to their new life” (BBC). As we know, the best way to learn about unfamiliar cultures is to experience them first-hand and that professional development or training focused on CQ can also be an effective method to boosting one’s CQ. But just how effective can CQ training be? A study reported by the BBC found that it can reduce the amount of time it takes for an expat to become fully functional in their new environment by two-thirds, from nine months to three: Expat bankers moving to the Middle East and Asia appeared to have fully adjusted to their new life in just three months, while without the training, it normally took expat employees nine months to become fully functional (BBC). The world needs more CQ and in order for that to happen, for our young learners to adopt CQ in their youth, teachers around the globe - both at home and abroad - are the ones who need to impart their knowledge. Training and experience are the keys. Ready to up your CQ for the classroom? Enroll in Culturally Responsive Teaching today. Ready to experience a new culture firsthand?

Majority of teachers favour pupils missing school to partake in climate change protests - Tutor Hunt Blog

Majority of teachers favour pupils missing school to partake in climate change protests Majority of teachers favour pupils missing school to partake in climate change protests Majority of teachers favour pupils missing school to partake in climate change protestsSchoolsIt`s unlikely anyone in the UK is unaware about the actions of the `Extinction Rebellion` group, who have brought parts of central London to a standstill over the last few months. In April they mounted huge demonstrations, focusing around Oxford Circus, Marble Arch, and Waterloo Bridge. On the 15th of April many thousands of activitsts gathered round Parliament Square, with the protesters demanding changes to slow down climate change. Even though the protests have been generally peaceful - despite hundreds of demonstrators being arrested - more than 500,000 people have been affected, mainly through disrupted journeys preventing them getting to work. In early October many tube lines were suspended, with protestors climbing onto train roofs - one viral video showed the moment an Extinction Rebellion protestor was roughly pulled from the top of a carriage, only to be engulfed by a braying, chee ring mob of angry commuters. While their primary demand that the government pledges to cut 100% of greenhouse emissions to zero by 2025 has not been met, their demonstrations have certainly had the effect of getting people taking about climate change. More people than ever are getting involved, promising to increase their recycling, reduce their carbon footprint, and even consume less meat. One demographic who have embraced the group`s message are schoolchildren, with thousands becoming politically involved, taking time off school to join in the protests. The Extinction Rebellion group have themselves encouraged children to support their movement, to join in their marches, even if it means missing classes. Jessica Ahmed, a 16 year old student, informed her school by email that she would be attending the demonstration, and explained her reasons for attending the recent protest, which contained an estimated 100,000 people. `If politicians were taking the appropriate action we need - and had been taking this action a long time ago when it was recognised the world was changing in a negative way - then I would not have to be skipping school.` On September 20th more than 150 protests took place throughout the United Kingdom, with thousands of children, of both primary and secondary school age, missing a day`s classes to join in the demonstrations. The pertinent question here is whether it`s ethically right for these children to be missing school, in order to take part in a political campaign. Many have said that the Extinction Rebellion group have dishonestly exploited this young and suggestive demographic, and that the school children are too young to decide whether they should be abstaining themselves from school to join in the marches. Despite the public being divided over the issue of whether it is appropriate for children to miss school and attend political demonstrations, the opinion of school teachers is somewhat clearer. In a survey commissioned by the National Citizen Service (NCS), 61% of teachers advocated pupils being permitted an `explained absence,` so they can attend social activism activities. The head of the NCS, Sean Costello, has himself advocated children being allowed to take part in protests, saying `Young people are passionate about many issues, including the environment, racism and mental health - they have important opinions and we must help them voice their views.` `If we don`t provide a channel for young people to make their voices heard, how can we expect them to sustain that interest into adulthood and play a part in their communities?` In contrast with this view many school leaders have expressed their concern for the pupils, and voiced disapproval over thousands school days being lost. The general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders Geoff Barton, has said `we understand the strength of feeling over the issue of climate change but missing school in order to take part in a protest is not the right approach and we urge pupils against this course of action.` `It is disruptive to lessons and learning, but the greatest concern of school leaders will be for the welfare of pupils who are off site and unsupervised. We would urge pupils to talk to their schools about activities which could take place in school to highlight the climate emergency rather than taking part in a strike.` Many members of the public have asked whether such a considerable number of children would have attended the protests had they taken place over a weekend, cynically suggesting that the demonstrations have been so popular amongst pupils primarily because they sanction a day off from school. A member of public summed up this sentiment in a ballet conducted just after the September marches, saying `If they did their protest on a weekend then very few children would turnout.` 4 months ago0Add a Comment

If You Are a Chemist, Colleges and Universities Will Help You Earn Your Bachelors Degree

If You Are a Chemist, Colleges and Universities Will Help You Earn Your Bachelor's DegreeIf you've never taken a chemistry class in your life, chances are you may have learned the basics through a chemistry textbook. However, if you've taken more than one chemistry class, it may be time to brush up on your knowledge in order to get that perfect job. After all, most people find chemistry to be an excellent tool for many different applications.While there are many different types of chemistry courses, it is fairly easy to find ones that will allow you to work in the fields of medicine, law, and business. You can start with chemistry classes at the undergraduate level or work on getting a biology degree and then go on to learn more specialized subjects. When learning chemistry, you will also want to take it very seriously because many of the properties of matter are based on chemistry, including mass, charge, temperature, and even energy.For example, all the elements in the periodic tab le have a certain property that makes them easy to study, such as being gas, liquid, or solid, and being in a specific state, such as gas or liquid. These properties help you understand the properties of matter and how they affect the processes in which you use them. In addition, you should become familiar with the very important subject of atoms and molecules.You can also start with chemistry classes in college, although you may find that they can be pretty dry. However, since chemistry is so important to so many different industries, you should take chemistry classes in graduate school as well. If you were to only study chemistry in college, you would not be familiar with many of the important areas of the field, such as crystallography, analytical chemistry, and biochemistry.Other fields of study will often require chemistry courses as well. Some examples of this include engineering, biology, physics, or even medicine. Some people also find that when taking chemistry in college, they will get a lot of practical work experience as well.If you do not plan on taking chemistry classes in college, you will need to find some way to continue your education. There are a number of ways that you can find a proper coursework that will help you earn a bachelor's degree in chemistry, but these may be more expensive than a semester's worth of classes at a local community college. If you take all of your classes at a local community college, then you may have difficulty finding classes that fit your schedule.In addition, these classes may not help you meet the requirements for a specific job, especially if you are not employed. For example, if you want to work as a lab technician or a chemist, you will need to have a bachelor's degree in chemistry. Since so many jobs are based on chemistry, this may be the field you wish to work in when you graduate. The important thing is to find a good chemistry class so that you have a foundation in the field.
