The Latest News with the ACT

The Latest News with the ACT If youve been paying attention to news coming out of the college entrance exam world in the last several years, youve probably noticed that the headlines have largely focused on the redesign of the SAT. So, what about the ACT? Here are some of the latest happenings regarding the ACT college admissions exam and what your teen needs to know: New test date Beginning in 2018, students can take the ACT test in the summer (starting with the July 2018 test date). This increases the number of national ACT test dates from six to seven. Because the ACT is offered primarily at local high schools across the country, which are closed during the summer months, the July ACT tests centers will likely be located on college and university campuses. For your teen, this change is significant for several reasons: The July ACT offers an opportunity to use the early part of summer break (assuming students get out of school in June) to study for the July ACT instead of squeezing ACT prep into the school year. The July date means that your test taker can easily take the ACT twice before early-admission college deadlines, which are often in early November. The new date means a wider variety of testing opportunities for college-bound students. Score report changes In September 2016, the ACT made several enhancements to its test reports that students receive with their scores. Heres a summary of what changed: Redesigned paper reports that are more visually engaging and offer more meaningful insights about students test results. Reporting categories only (for English, math, reading and science) but no more subject subscores (for algebra/coordinate geometry, for example). Readiness ranges that enable students to see how their performance on reporting categories compares to students who have met college readiness benchmarks for specific subjects. More reporting categories that share information like total number of points possible, total number of points achieved, and percentage of points correct. Additional indicators to guide students toward potential college majors and careers based on information students include during the test registration process.

You are so harmful and so necessary

You are so harmful and so necessary Salt is white death repeats to us the popular media. It causes trouble for kidneys, pancreas and bladder, heart and arteries. But how many thousands of years have people used the salt, how much effort was made to get that white death So it turns out that we can not live without it? We do not. Because it flows through our veins in a   solution. And most human bodys contains about 120 grams of salt. If there is too small amount of it our muscles will not contract, blood will not circulate,  the food will not be digested  and our heart will not beat. However, scientists have still not been able to agree on how much salt in the body should be considered as is too low  and which amount   is too high. Recommended medical standards of salt intake are ranged from 3.5 to 8 grams per day. But our usual salt intake is 1.5-2 times higher than recommended rates. In fact, not only the excess, but the lack of salt causes irreparable harm to health. * Salt is an essential building block for the human body. Each of our cells is   a microscopic ion power plant, and its performance depends on many things, including the presence of salts. * Salt deficiency can lead to depletion of cells, which may result in swelling of the limbs and internal organs, the weakening of the blood pressure. Slowed thought processes, decreases physical activity of the gastro-intestinal tract and biliary ducts. * Salt supports hydro balance in the human body, regulates blood pressure and volume and contributes to the digestive functions. Do not overdo the salt, but do not give up on it altogether. Listen to your body, study its reaction, and everything will be fine, tasty and healthy. And to make it fun  here are some of the uncommon uses of the salt, lifehack tips: * A pinch of salt added to the coffee will improve the taste and remove excessive bitterness. * Add a pinch of salt to the milk and it will stay fresh much longer. * Just peeled apples, pears and potatoes, put into cold salted water, retain their color. * Tea and coffee deposits from the cups are easily removed with a wet sponge with salt.

Earth Day Education Ideas to Save Our Planet? - TutorNerds

Earth Day Education Ideas to Save Our Planet? - TutorNerds Earth Day Education: Ideas to Save Our Planet? For Students and Educators Earth day is in April and many students, teachers, and parents want to combine education with being Green. There are several great ways that students can celebrate Earth day in April, and every day of the year, while learning at the same time.? Here are a few suggestions from an Orange County private academic tutor (READ: 5 Books for the Nature Lover in You). Basic tips Students can learn about being eco-friendly by doing a visual check of the house before leaving for school. Are all the lights off? Are unused appliances unplugged for the day? Students can also learn about saving water, especially in California, by remembering to turn off the faucet when brushing their teeth or by taking shorter showers in the morning. These things seem very simple, but its a great way for children to learn about the importance of preserving resources for our planet. Walk instead of drive This is a great way for parents to work on physical education and saving the planet with their children. In the car-dominated areas of Southern California, parents and children can take a walk to the local supermarket or park. Having students walk or ride their bikes improves physical education awareness while learning about the environment and pollution reduction. Clean the beach Teachers and parents can organize a ‘clean the beach’ day through the PTA or parents can take their children as a family. Younger children will be amazed how much waste is left on the beach and it will help them learn how to use the trash can and recycle bin more often when at home. Its also a fun way to spend a day outside as a family (CLICK: How Much Plastic Is in the Ocean? You Tell Me!). Do a botanical science experiment Parents or teachers can purchase two different types of plants from the nursery, one that needs a lot of water in one that is drought resistant. They can set up the plants at home or in the classroom and demonstrate to younger children how much water is needed per day for each type of plant. When students have the opportunity to interact and participate, theyll often retain the result of the experiment. Teachers can add in a lesson about Botany if they wish to extend the experience. Online research Parents who find that it’s getting too hot to conduct outdoor activities this spring, can participate in online research with their children. Students can look at different climates and sub-climates focusing on the micro-climate here in Southern California. They can learn about disappearing reservoirs, plants and animals that are native to our local environment,  and learn about annual inches of rainfall increasing temperature. Students with a creative flair can create a poster project were they print out pictures of plants and animals local to our environment and learn about how much water they need to thrive. Better yet, parents can encourage artistic skill by asking their kids to draw the plants and animals for their poster project. Nature Hike Southern California is filled with beautiful foothills with family friendly hiking trails. Parents can take their kids on a short hike on the weekend so that they can see which types of plants thrive in a drought prone environment. Also, parents can discuss with their children the importance of conserving water and maintaining fire prevention in the natural landscape while on the hike (CLICK: Best Hiking Trails in Orange County). Arrange a trip to the nursery Teachers and parents can arrange to take children to the local plant nursery to study different types of botanicals and why some thrive in a desert-like climate, such as Southern California, and why others require additional water and shade (perhaps better suited to a cooler or more humid environment). Additionally, students can each take home a small plant and learn the specific amounts of water it will require to thrive. Parents who want to sneak in a little bit of creativity can bring a camera along for their children to photograph, and later draw, the different botanicals and succulents at the nursery. In short? No matter how teachers and parents choose to share Earth day with their students and children, its important that the younger generations understand the value of our natural resources and the importance of water conservation, recycling, and other ways of being Green in Southern California.

Level Up Your Language Learning with Spaced Repetition (SRS)

Level Up Your Language Learning with Spaced Repetition (SRS) Remember that time you crammed information for an exam?(Dont worry, weve all been there.)You, like many others, may have spent an all-nighter memorizing every page of your notes and trying desperately to make up for countless days you decided to hold off on studying.While you may have performed well on the exam, think about how much you recalled a few weeks after the test date.How much of that information did you remember?If youre like most humans, the answer is probably not very much. Wait, So Cramming a New Language Wont Work?You can try, but unfortunately you wont get very far if you try to learn  the Spanish subjunctive tense  in one night. Now, you may wonder, if I was able to recall information so well at the time of an exam, why has it dropped from my memory soon after?Well, theres science behind this! Research proves that cramming intense amounts of information into our brain in a short period of time is not an effective way for long-term learning.British author H.E. Gorst mentioned in his book The Course of Education that cramming is what produce[s] mediocrity. Yikes. What he means is that cramming doesnt provide us with the ability to think critically and effectively apply our knowledge in creative ways.Yet cramming is still becoming more and more popular among students of all ages.If Its So Ineffective, Why Do We Cram?Fingers point to improper time management as the number one cause. If we better prioritize our time, we can more efficiently learn new information. By cramming, we may absorb information that can be easily regurgitated the following day. But say goodbye to that information because its going to disappear at an exponential rate as time goes on.Cramming trades a strong memory now for a weak memory later. Unfortunately, we sometimes cling to short-term gratifications and fail to strive for long-term benefits. Before you banish all hope for your memory, theres an alternative method to learning that may give your brain the love it needs.In psychology, there is a theory of memorization and learning called the spacing effect. The spacing effect is the idea that we remember and learn items more effectively when they are studied a few times over a long span of time.Is Frequent Repetition the Solution? Not Quite.Since cramming is out the window, you may think its smarter to study material over and over again. Its crucial to note that, while repetition is important, not all repetition is created equally. Youll want to space out the repetitions between each time you study a set of information.But determining how long to wait in between studying can also be a tricky matter. If you practice too soon, your brain will begin passively remembering information, which will not stick over time. If you practice too late, you will have forgotten the material and have to spend extra time relearning it. Add to this the complexity of individual learning and memorization patterns, and you have a recipe for guaranteed memory loss.Thankfully , there are softwares available today to help us pin-point the sweet spot of optimal learning. Just when our forgetfulness dips below a certain level, these programs jump in and keep our brains on track. How cool is that?Spaced Repetition Software to the RescueSpaced repetition software (SRS) are computer programs modeled after a process similar to using flashcards. Users enter items to be memorized into the program, which are then converted into electronic decks that appear on-screen in a one-by-one sequential pattern.Usually, the user clicks one time to reveal the question or front of the generated card. A second click will reveal the answer or back of the flashcard. Upon seeing the answer, the user then indicates the difficulty of the card by telling the program how challenging it was.Each following cards order of appearance is not randomized. In fact, SRS programs use algorithms to space out the time intervals indicated when each card will appear again on the screen. Cards given easy ratings will appear later than cards given hard ratings, thus allowing users to spend more time studying the cards that are more difficult. The tough ones will show up more often until they are mastered, giving you the chance to actively learn them more efficiently than other learning styles.Using Spaced Repetition for Language LearningTo put this into context, lets pretend you spend an evening studying 100 Mandarin words you didnt know before. You continue studying until youve completely memorized the words. Lets say it takes you an hour to do this.Immediately after reviewing these words, your memory of them will be quite high. However, over time you will naturally begin forgetting the material you learned. And, since it was your first time learning these words, your use-it-or-lose-it brain is more likely to ditch this new material at a faster pace. The new knowledge isnt yet considered important enough to be etched into your brain cells.However, the second time you study the same words, it will take you less time to master the set than it did the first time. Perhaps this time it only takes you 30 minutes to memorize the 100 words. Congratulations! Youve completed your first spaced repetition.So, does this mean youll have to keep repeating the information you want to learn for the rest of your life? Not exactly. While it does require long-term review to keep information fresh on our minds, the time spent on review becomes shorter and less frequent over time.With each successive review, it will take you less and less time to fully recall the information. As you begin mastering a set of words, youll find yourself whizzing through each card. Eventually, information will become so memorable that we know it by heart. This is when you know youre ready to move onto a new, more challenging deck.Get Your SRS Game On!Thankfully, millions of people around the world enjoy using a variety of free applications available today that use spaced repetition learning.AnkiA nki is one of the most popular spaced repetition softwares. Named after the Japanese word for memorization, Anki allows users to create their own decks of cards or download pre-made decks by other users.One popular feature of Anki is the ability to sync decks across multiple devices, allowing users to study online or on their cell phones. Anki also stores your statistics for each deck so that you can track your progress over time.FluentUFluentU is a bit different from the other services mentioned here. FluentU takes real-world videos like music videos, movie trailers, news and inspiring talks, and turns them into language learning experiences. What makes it relevant here is that it has a very robust SRS systemâ€"based on a variation of the SM2 SuperMemo algorithm (like Anki).  What makes it different is that you are able to easily import words, and then you can automatically see images, definitions and example sentences that have been written for each of those words.And thats not al l. You can even see how the word is used in different videos throughout the site. This is all packaged in a smooth feature that tracks your history and provides new and different video clip prompts based on your previous history on FluentU. Its a smooth marriage of spaced repetition and learning through context and personalization. If youre tired of filling up your flashcards and searching for good examples, then FluentU might be what youre looking for.FluentU has a wide variety of videos like movie trailers, funny commercials and web series, as you can see here:FluentU App Browse Screen.FluentU has interactive captions that let you tap on any word to see an image, definition, audio and useful examples. Now native language content is within reach with interactive transcripts.Didnt catch something? Go back and listen again. Missed a word? Hover your mouse over the subtitles to instantly view definitions.Interactive transcript for Carlos Baute song.You can learn all the vocabulary in any video with FluentUs learn mode. Swipe left or right to see  more examples for the word you’re learning.FluentU Has Quizzes for Every VideoAnd FluentU always keeps track of vocabulary that you’re learning. It uses that vocab to give you a 100% personalized experience by recommending videos and examples.Start using FluentU on the website  with your computer or tablet  or, better yet,  download the FluentU app from  the  iTunes  or  Google Play  store.SuperMemoSuperMemo is another learning software that uses spaced repetition learning methods. Electronic flashcards can be self-made, downloaded from a pre-made collection, or in some cases merged together. After users are presented with a card, they must respond and then give themselves a grade that reflects their recall ability. SuperMemo uses this feedback to calculate the interval length for the card to be repeated.Self-discipline Ultimately Trumps AllRemember, while these programs may have wonderful language learning techniqu es, they wont be effective unless you have the self-discipline to use them on an ongoing basis.Make it a habit to open up and use the softwares mentioned above. If you set aside some time every day to do your SRS studying, youll see noticeable results sooner than you might imagine.Frank Macri works with those looking to create off the beaten path lifestyles.

For example, if you want to be able to add up to the amount of a particular amount of money.The first step to help solve arithmetic sequence algebra problem is to establish how you are going to answer the problem. Suppose that you want to add up to the amount of one hundred dollars. Now we will assume that the number one hundred is a legitimate number. If you do not know what a legitimate number is you can either assume that it is a time to count, number of months, the number of days or number of years.Once you have figured out what a legitimate number is, the next step is to figure out a good problem to solve it with. The best choice is probably addition. The good thing about addition is that the number of digits needed is not an issue. The only v ariable is the amount of money.A similar problem can be broken down into two steps. In the first step, you will find a process that you need to follow. For example, one can have to walk to and from the bank. This is a very good step to help solve arithmetic sequence algebra problem. Next, you will solve the process by putting all the coins in a box and then counting them to the number of coins required.The next step is to look for the method of procedure. You need to look at the next step in the process to see how you can help solve arithmetic sequence algebra problem. For example, if you do not have to walk to and from the bank, then the process of putting all the coins in a box will require you to put all the coins in the box and then count them to the number of coins required. Once you have the number of coins, all you have to do is figure out the process by which you put all the coins in the box.If you use this method, then it is very simple to see how you can help solve arithme tic sequence algebra problem. In this case, the process of putting all the coins in the box will need you to bring a box to the bank, count the coins in the box, put all the coins in the box and count the coins to the number of coins required. The above procedure can be translated into a procedure of put all the coins in the box and count the coins to the number of coins required. All this procedure does is to provide a procedure to help solve arithmetic sequence algebra problem.Once you have figured out a good method to help solve arithmetic sequence algebra problem, it is also quite easy to figure out the number of coins required. If you go with the above method, you can be sure that you will be able to solve the problem with ease.
