ACTION RESEARCH :BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION I. Introduction For schools‚ creating an appropriate learning environment is critical. Oftentimes‚ maintaining discipline among the learners is a hard task for a teacher. In my Reading and Phonics class in Grade 5 at St. James College of Quezon City‚ I encountered one pupil by the name of __________ who misbehaves most of the time. I had observed him that he was not listening attentively in our lesson. When I asked him a question‚ he

Reflecting on my teaching practices Benefits of critical reflection Research has shown how deliberate and critical reflection on teaching practices contributes to excellence in teaching‚ and improved educational outcomes for all children. Critically reflective teaching practices encourage teachers to: • • • • • regularly evaluate their approaches to teaching and learning understand more about the positive impacts of high-quality effective pedagogies on children’s learning become more aware of

The Action Potential An action potential‚ also called a spike‚ nerve impulse‚ and discharge‚ is the rapid reversal of charge of the cell membrane. These changes in charge occur within milliseconds‚ meaning the action potential travels very quickly down the axon in order to convey information over long distances. This transfer of information occurs within six phases and requires the presence of multiple pumps and channels embedded in the membrane to control ion concentration. Phase 1: The Resting

PHASE 3‚ PART 1 A) Restatement of problem The problem stated in the Action Research Project was that 66% of third grade students lack the ability to draw conclusions and make inferences to answer comprehension questions correctly. This was evident by the state reading test scores‚ specifically the inference test given by their teacher. This indicated a need for increased student achievement in making inferences and drawing conclusions. Third grade students were not proficient at making inferences

When voluntary movement is performed‚ it will briefly suppress. In advanced stages‚ an "action tremor" is more common. "Action tremors" are tremors that continue with movement. Tremors tend to be less severe the more the patient relaxes‚ or is unoccupied. The second cardinal sign of PD is Bradykinesia‚ which means "slow movement." This symptom is the

modern meaning of probability‚ which‚ in contrast‚ is used as a measure of the weight of empirical evidence‚ and is arrived at from inductive reasoning and statistical inference. A short history of Probability Theory............ The branch of mathematics known as probability theory was inspired by gambling problems. The earliest work was performed by Girolamo Cardano (1501-1576) an Italian mathematician‚ physician‚ and gambler. In his manual Liber de Ludo Aleae‚ Cardano discusses many of the basic
