Why We Do What We Do My teaching philosophy is best described by using the following analogy. A building does not stand tall for years on end without a good foundation. Weather its building a house‚ an apartment‚ a church‚ or a skyscraper‚ the foundation is the most important element for the building to stand tall for years. If a child can start out with the right knowledge to live a physically active lifestyle they have more of a chance to continue to live while being physically active. Pouring

Butterflies however‚ unlike birds or other migratory animals‚ only travel one way and their generations after must take the journey back. Though this process may seem as a natural reaction of butterflies‚ how does it happen‚ where do they go‚ and how do they travel? Why do butterflies migrate? Butterflies are naturally cold-blooded

The concept of thrifty genes by itself is one amazing thing our body can do. A scientific article titled “Eating‚ exercise‚ and “thrifty” genotypes; connecting the dots toward an evolutionary understanding of modern chronic diseases” by Chakravarthy and Booth is an example of an essay that explores the concept of Thrifty genes and uses this concept to determine the understanding of chronic diseases that occur at present. The beginning of the paper is mostly focused on the objectives of using information

If A and a are alleles for a particular gene and each individual has two alleles then p is the frequency of the A allele and q is the frequency of a alleles. The frequency of the possible diploid combinations is expressed in the equation p2+2pq+q2=1

Why Do Children and Schools Fail? February 20‚ 2010 Why Do Children and Schools Fail? The question I will attempt to answer within the context of “Brain-Based Learning” is “why are children and schools failing?” This very broad based question cannot be answered within a single context.

Gene Connolly and the Golden Oldies Lunch Club The sound of Cat Stevens can be heard drifting through the courtyard of Concord High School from the window of the principal’s corner office. It is that same courtyard where each morning‚ braced for whatever weather New Hampshire chose to thrust upon us‚ Gene Connolly stood firmly. Part sentinel‚ part one-man welcome committee‚ he greeted everyone who passed by with a wave and a smile‚ at the very least. In a school of over two-thousand students‚ even

Aging of population (also known as demographic aging‚ and population aging) is a summary term for shifts in the age distribution (i.e.‚ age structure) of a population toward older ages. A direct consequence of the ongoing global fertility transition (decline) and of mortality decline at older ages‚ population aging is expected to be among the most prominent global demographic trends of the 21st century. Population aging is progressing rapidly in many industrialized countries‚ but those developing

“Things do not change‚ we change.” Henry David Thoreau. Fire will always be a material that will not change based on how one uses it.
