The development of distance education has resulted from so-called push and pull factors: the technological advances created user demand‚ while extensive usage of technologies led to further development in technology. (Lewis et al‚ 1999). One can distinguish between four generations of distance education technologies. The timeframe of the first generation is from 1850s to1960 and the technologies employed are print (correspondence classes)‚ radio and instructional television. The second generation

Long Distance Relationships: Can They Work? Two clichés: Absence makes the heart grow fonder and Out of sight‚ out of mind. Which one of these two conflicting views is closer to the reality? As it turns out‚ it does not really matter that much since long distance relationships (LDR) suffer from exactly the same strengths and weaknesses as proximal relationships. Whether two people are going to have fulfilling relationship does not only depend on their geographical closeness. What matters is

Before baseline 11-10 launches‚ the distance rocket traveled 6.73m and weighed 1.12 grams and the seconds rocket went .92 seconds and weighed .95 grams. By adding some cardstock for fins and taking off my clay and replacing it with tape it went quite a bit further and it went quite a bit faster‚ the weight was .93 grams. With the weight taken off‚ the rocket went 1.796 m farther. For the baseline launches‚ the distance average was 7.465m and .91 seconds and for the height the average was 2

English 10/28/13 “Judging Distances” Analysis In “Judging Distances” by Henry Reed it is indicated that there are two voices speaking within the poem because they both have a different style of speaking. The first voice seems to be starting sentences such as‚ “Not only how far away‚ but the way you say it is it.” (1). The second voice then steps in to finish the latter’s sentence‚ “Is very Important. Perhaps you may never get the knack of judging a distance‚ but at least you know.” (2-3)

is considered rather inappropriate. Power Distance The power distance in Swedish companies is among the smallest in the world‚ according to a study of 40 countries in 1984. ’Power distance’ can be defined as "the extent to which people in a hierarchical situation feel they can and should control the behavior of others‚ and the extent to which those others are conditioned by reflexes of obedience". In Swedish companies‚ the concept of power distance is largely replaced by personal responsibility
