Formal‚ Non-formal and Informal Learning: What Are the Differences? Earlier this year I did some applied research on the differences between formal‚ non-formal and informal education in both the sciences‚ as well as literacy and language education. These terms have been used by the OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development) as well as researchers and practitioners around the globe. Here’s a simplified explanation: Formal education – Organized‚ guided by a formal curriculum‚ leads

Reactions in Aqueous Solutions: Metathesis Reactions and Net Ionic Equations Introduction: Metathesis or double decomposition reactions are a reaction in which two compounds react to form two new compounds‚ with no changes in oxidation number. The ions of two compounds exchange partners. AX + BY AY + BX This reaction can occur between two inorganic salts when one product is insoluble in water‚ driving the reaction forward. A typical example is as followed and is considered a molecular equation

In order for an amendment to be added to the constitution there is a long process that needs to be abided by. There are formal and informal ways to make an amendment. The informal way is that the president can change the constitution without actually amending it. In the formal way there needs to be three-fourths of the amendment passed by the state‚ then two-thirds of a majority vote by the house of representatives and senate. There can also be a constitutional convention held by the state legislatures

Michael Ames Ms. Martin IPS Per. 1 11-3-09 Sludge Lab Report A few weeks ago‚ I got a container full of “sludge”. I was asked to separate it into its four components and identify each one to help me better understand how to separate mixtures ad identify substances. My original sludge had a liquid on top and solid(s) on the bottom. The liquid was clear‚ and most of the solid was tan. There was a small layer of blackish/brownish particles in the middle of the tan solid. There were small yellow

respective stoichiometric coefficients that must be determined experimentally. The primary goal essentially for this experiment is to determine the k value or rate constant along with the x and y stoichiometric coefficients given the concentrations of Crystal Violet and Hydroxide. This can be obtained using a spectrophotometer to determine rate of absorbance then graph the rate find a line of best fit‚ determine our rate constant‚ then finally solve for our x and y in the rate law equation. Beer’s law also

Abstract: The Enzyme Lab results where when the liver was frozen‚ its reaction was fast‚ and when it was hot‚ it was slow‚ and the liver that was at room temperature reacted slowly to medium. Introduction: The Enzyme Lab is to conduct investigations to determine the most favorable conditions for the most efficient enzyme activity. Variables to be used testing include temperature‚ pH values and surface area. Enzymes are proteins that speed up the rate of chemical reactions‚ which would otherwise

Conclusion: The purpose of this lab was to synthesize and purify aspirin. The theoretical yield was calculated to 3.766g. The actual yield of pure aspirin was 2.863g with a yield of 76%. The percent yield indicates that our synthesis was a success but the yield is low and indicates that some of the aspirin was lost during synthesis. Some reasons for loss can result from human error such as loosing product from sticking on the spatula and the Buchner funnel and several weighings. Also‚ when transferring

rejected the results. Some hypothesis which supported the results were that the there would be about one‚ two‚ or three channels in the radio‚ the bobby pin could not replace the germanium diode‚ and that the crystal radio ware efficient as a normal store bought radio. On experiment two the crystal radio had like 3 stations. The sound was very clear and loud. Also‚ the bobby pin method did not work. There were lots of hypothesis that did not support the results. Some hypothesis that did not support

1. What is tone? Tone is a writer’s style‚ character‚ or attitude. It can have a positive or negative effect of the reader. 2. What is the difference between formal and informal tone? Formal tone means that you should not use some words that are used in casual writings. Informal tone is similar to a spoken conversation. 3. What is your angle on writing your research topic? I don’t have an angle. It is going to be as unbiased as possible. 4. What is the difference between context and conventions
