“Class,” I announced, “today I will teach you a simpler method to find the greatest common factor and the least common multiple of a set of numbers.” In fifth grade, my teacher asked if anyone had any other methods to find the greatest common factor of two numbers. I volunteered, and soon the entire class, and teacher, was using my method to solve problems. Teaching my class as a fifth grader inspired me to teach others how important math and science is. These days, I enjoy helping my friends with

deepening their understanding of descriptive statistics concepts they learned in sixth, seventh, and eighth grade. Since this is a complex topic, the learning goals I created for my students are very specific and direct. These goals are aligned to the Common Core State Standards, have measurable objectives, and also have a condition, a behavior, and a criterion.
Multiple Sclerosis is a disease of the brain and central nervous system that is potentially disabling. Multiple Sclerosis, commonly called MS, is a disease where the immune system attacks to protective myelin sheaths that cover the nerve fibers, which causes communication problems between the brain and the rest of the body. The disease can cause the nerves themselves to be damaged, either temporarily or, in some cases, permanently. MS is a disease that has the natural tendency to remit spontaneously
ultrasounds. This phenomenon has been termed the vanishing twin syndrome and the cause is still not well known. They have been studied, analyzed, and written about for a long time in all cultures, yet there is still a great deal to learn both about multiples. Monozygotic twins are also known as identical twins. They occur when one fertilized egg splits and develops into two fetuses. The fetuses usually share one placenta. Identical twins have the same genes, so they generally look alike and are the same
are commonly known as an antisocial group of people who have common traits with one another; in addition, they have a variety of issues related to their past and their mental health and often have very specific reasons for killing. Serial killers often have very similar traits to one another. They are classified in a specific way to fit into their own group of killers. One or more people have to kill at least one person throughout multiple events with a “cooling off” period in between the events (Ioana
Introduction According to National Multiple Sclerosis Society, Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an unpredictable, often disabling disease of the central nervous system (CNS) that disrupts the flow of information within the brain, and between the brain and body. The central nervous system (CNS) comprises of the brain and the spinal cord. CNS is coated and protected by myelin sheath that is made of fatty tissues (Slomski, 2005). The inflammation and damage of the myelin sheath causing it to form a scar (sclerosis)
sexual. (Dissociative Identity Disorder (Multiple Personality Disorder), Nov. 2014) “Child, persecutor, and protector identity states are often exhibited by DID sufferers.” (Rosik, 2012). Research shows that the development of the disorder is probably a mental response to interpersonal and environmental hardships, particularly at a young age when emotional abandonment or abuse can interfere with personality growth and development. (Goldberg, 2014) “The common belief among most professionals is the
Multiple Sclerosis Multiple Sclerosis, also known as, MS is a rare and crippling disease of the central nervous system. Multiple Sclerosis is the result of the protective membrane, the myelin sheath that covers the axon of a nerve cell which gets destroyed by inflammation or scarring. When the nerve cell gets destroyed it results in the nerve signal stopping or slowing down. The damage to the nerve cells are a result of the immune systems cells attacking the nervous system. Multiple Sclerosis is
and "phrenia" which is derived from the phrenic area which is just above the kidneys where the diaphragm is located. It is a structure innervated by the phrenic nerve. The Greeks and others assumed that the phrenic area was the seat of thought or at least feelings (Berle 12). Up to the 1600s, people with psychotic disorders were sent off in "ships of fools", locked in cages, "flogged into reason", or killed. The care for the insane at this time was the responsibility of nuns and monks (Noll, xviii)
Multiple Personality Disorder (MPD) Introduction: Multiple personalities is a dissociative condition in which an individual’s personality is apparently split into two or more distinct sub-personalities, each of which may become dominant at different times. People with multiple personality disorder suffer from internal chaos, roller-coaster emotions and terrible memories. They also present confusing confusing and contradictory images to their family and friends. But in spite of all this, MPD
Around the world, many people are living with neurologically debilitating disorders like multiple sclerosis. Multiple sclerosis is best described as a pathological “inflammatory-mediated demyelinating disease of the human central nervous system,” and affects more than 2.5 million people globally (Trapp & Nave, 2008). In coping with multiple sclerosis, as with other chronic illnesses, many choose to write about their experience, including the journey of how they received their diagnosis and their
Multiple Births Multiple births are rare in humans with twins as being the most common form of this event. Multiple births can arise in many different combinations of ways but the probability of giving birth to more than one child remains fairly constant when compared to the entire human race. The chances of multiple births can also vary from race and genetic background. Scientist and researchers do not know what the exact cause of these variations is but many of them feel that it is caused by
Multiple sclerosis, also known as MS, is one of humankind’s most mysterious diseases. No one knows the exact cause and there is no exact treatment. Still multiple sclerosis has the ability to affect nearly 3 million people worldwide and at least 500,000 people in the United States (Boroch). This disease tends to be more common in individuals of northern European descent and women are more than twice as likely to develop multiple sclerosis as men. Of those 3 million people, most of them are between
whizz by, a man opens his eyes, his car is shaking as semi-trucks fly by his car that he has fallen asleep in while sitting in traffic. He quickly puts his car into drive and continues on to begin his day of work. This scenario has become all too common with the amount of people that have or have had a case of sleep deprivation. People require sleep to be able to function correctly in the world today. Sleep deprivation is a major problem that is not only dangerous to someone’s health mentally and
them” (Zeitz 3). In fact, at least in the case of Zeitz, metaphor is a necessity for imparting an understanding of problem solving concepts on readers because some of these problem solving concepts are so abstract. As such, an understanding of metaphor is extremely useful in the understanding of the heuristics for solving a problem, analyzing metaphors which are naturally involved with word problems for the intended direction of the problem, and understanding the common theorems and other tools
Multiple sclerosis, also known as MS, is one of the humankind’s most mysterious diseases. Multiple sclerosis has the ability to affect nearly 3 million people worldwide. This disease tends to be more common in individuals of northern European descent and women are more than twice as likely to develop multiple sclerosis as men are. Of those 3 million people, most of them are between the ages of 20 and 50 years old. Even though multiple sclerosis is a mystery disease, scientists are working to determine
taking habits. Spearman thought that if all mental tests are mutually related then there is some common factor that causes this. Spearman developed a method called factor analysis that shows that these mutual relations between mental ability tests were the direct result of a common factor among them. Spearman used factor analysis to prove that certain groups of mental ability tests can measure a common mental ability. In the 1900’s Charles Spearman came up with the t...
Several scientists studied multiple paranormal creatures for hundreds of years. Out of the countless paranormal creatures there has always been one that sticks out the most. There has been plenty movies along with books about this strange spirit, these creatures are known as poltergeists. Just the word poltergeist has a strange signification to it, they have been around longer than any living individual, likewise , they are also known for doing multiple things to people. The word poltergeist has
Multiple Pregnancy Having a multiple pregnancy means that a woman is carrying twins, triplets, or more. The majority of multiple pregnancies are twins. Naturally conceiving triplets or more (higher-order multiples) is quite rare. Multiple pregnancies are riskier than single pregnancies. A woman with a multiple pregnancy is more likely to have certain problems during her pregnancy. Therefore, she will need to have more frequent appointments for prenatal care.
