MATTERS Brainology: Transforming Students’ Motivation to Learn Carol S. Dweck This is an exciting time for our brains. More and more research is showing that our brains change constantly with learning and experience and that this takes place throughout our lives. Does this have implications for students ’ motivation and learning? It certainly does. In my research in collaboration with my graduate students‚ we have shown that what students believe about their brains — whether they see their

My mom was born and raised in the Philippines. She considered herself and her family as working class. She grew up with her parents and nine brothers and sisters. My mom described her childhood home as small. The house was made out of bamboo. There were only two rooms with no flooring and had iron sheets as the roof. All of the girls had to sleep in one room. My mom and her siblings went to the same public elementary school. There was no junior high school at the time‚ so they all went to high school

A recent experiment1 first demonstrated an acoustic time-reversal mirror ~TRM! in the ocean. A TRM2‚3 also referred to as the process of phase conjugation in the frequency domain‚4–8 focuses sound from a source–receive array ~SRA! back to the probe source ~PS! which ensonified the SRA. The SRA receives the probe-source field‚ time reverses it ~phase conjugation in the frequency domain!‚ and then uses the time-reversed data as the excitation for an array of sources which are collocated with

However‚ there are so many mechanical problems which are solved efficiently by applying this principle that it merits separate attention as a working principle. For a straight-line collision‚ the net work done is equal to the average force of impact times the distance traveled during the impact.Average impact force x distance traveled = change in kinetic energyIf a moving object is stopped by a collision‚ extending the stopping distance will reduce the average impact force.

My first time in London I think that the most exacting trip that I have ever made was the one when I went to London England. I was on summer vacation in Thailand at the time and was supposed to be returning home to the Dominican Republic; however‚ I had a better idea‚ I was going to England instead. Leaving through the airport in Bangkok was absolute chaos; they were building another airport at the time to accommodate the increasing number of people‚ and judging by my experience‚ it couldn’t come
