Organic Chemistry Tutor Substitution and Elimination Procedure

Organic Chemistry Tutor Substitution and Elimination ProcedureThe organic chemistry tutor substitution and elimination procedure for the student is a very tedious process, which can become quite tiresome and troublesome. If you are serious about your research you will have to put some thought and preparation into this aspect of your studies.With the organic chemistry tutor substitution and elimination procedure, the chemistry student is required to provide the instructor with a copy of the syllabus and other textbooks, as well as the assignments. This is the first thing you will be required to do. Although there are some providers who will ask for this information, you will not be required to supply any materials at all.After you have supplied all the information, the next step in the procedure will be to submit the assignments, as well as the papers, for grading by the examiner. As long as they appear to be passing standards, then you are free to sit back and relax. However, if the papers and assignments are failing, you will be required to show the instructor the supporting proof in the form of physical proofs. The syllabus can be verified from the college where you are taking your courses to help you make out whether the content of the course is consistent with the syllabus of your own university.After the exams, the person's chemistry course will have been marked and graded by the examiner who will then have passed or failed the course. This marks the end of the organic chemistry tutor substitution and elimination procedure for the student.However, at this point the tutor should also discuss with the examiner to the detail regarding the rest of the requirements for the remainder of the study period. It is therefore recommended that you look up the other requirements, if necessary, before you sit down to discuss the rest of the issues with the instructor. When you approach the end of the examination, the only other requirement for you is to make sure that yo u will pass the exam. The examinations are one of the most important tests of the student's ability to understand the subject and be able to apply the knowledge to solve problems. It will be important that you understand the questions, even if it is difficult. You must be prepared for the 'Ask the Expert' section, where you will be expected to provide a demonstration of solving a problem, and you will also need to attend an Examinations Worksheet to be able to identify problems with the content of the syllabus.All in all, the organic chemistry tutor substitution and elimination procedure for the student should only be taken after putting considerable thought into the whole process. As soon as you have submitted the documents for all the required tasks, the examination will be over and you can then go through the rest of the procedure.

Gain College Acceptance The Write Way

Gain College Acceptance The Write Way Gain College Acceptance The Write Way Gaining college admission requires a delicate balance of high school grades, personal history and participation, test scores, and college writing skills. A student works for years to gain the grades and personal history required to stand out in a crowded admissions field. But the SAT exam and the personal statement required by most colleges provide only a brief window for success.College writing skills are unique in that they benefit both the student's SAT scores and the directed personal statement as part of a college admission portfolio. Even if your child has received excellent writing instruction during high school, the professionals at Huntington Learning Centers can help fine tune the writing skills of even the most established writer. The time spent in these tutoring sessions will provide insight on how to write focused pieces of literature carefully crafted for the: SAT Exam.Eachstudent that sits for the SAT exam is required to complete a writtenessay. Students are expected to read a passage or excerpt and develop apoint of view from the presented material. This point of view must bebased on sound reasoning and supported by a student's studies, reading,observations, and experiences. The writing portion of the SAT exam is apowerful opportunity for a student to express their thoughts, communicateeffectively, utilize precise language, and develop ideas. The essay prompts are typically general statements that are applicable to all students regardless of location, race, ethnicity, or gender. The most recently released prompts from the March 2013 administration asked students to consider the importance of paying attention to details, setting goals, or resolving conflict. Students interpreted the reading passages and crafted careful responses to a series of guiding questions. Since the writing portion is timed, students must be able to write efficiently and process ideas quickly. Personal Statement. Eachcollege has a different admissions process and most institutions requirestudents submit a personal statement as part of the admissions portfolio.This statement should contain a balance of spirit and substance and allowthe admissions panel an opportunity to learn something about your child.It should stand out without being contrived and be substantive withoutbeing too serious. When crafting a personal statement a student should: Connect to experiences.Simply listing past experiences isn't effective in a personal statement. Students should include specific examples of past experiences and discuss how these experiences will help them with their future educational endeavors. Showing a clear link between personal history and future college education provides weight to the admissions portfolio. Look to the future.Being admitted into the college isn't enough. A student should find ways in the personal statement to describe and explain how the college can help them achieve future goals and to be successful after the education ends. Avoid clichs.Clear word choice is crucial since most personal statements have a word limit. Don't waste these words on hyperbole, cliches, or vague language. Students need to be clear, concise, and communicate effectively. Be honest.Students should paint themselves in the best light possible while remaining honest. Stretching the truth or offering unsubstantiated evidence doesn't make the personal statement better, these tactics make it false. Huntington Learning Centers are committed to creating high quality individual tutoring sessions aimed at increasing a student's writing skills. We will begin by assessing your child's writing and determining areas of strength and weakness. Based on this assessment data we will carefully craft a series of tutoring sessions that will meet these defined needs. Ongoing assessment and feedback will provide you the assurance you need that the tutoring is a wise investment and will benefit your child's writing skills and future college placement. Consider your child's writing skills. What areas of their writing could use attention? How can tutoring sessions with a Huntington Learning Center writing specialist boost their college writing skills?

Effort vs. Talent Which hasa greaterimpact on academic success Part One

Effort vs. Talent Which hasa greaterimpact on academic success Part One Improving Academic Performance Anybody that reads this blog knows that we like to write about how mindset, effort, deliberate practice, proper study habits, organization and time management skills, strategic planning (and many other concepts that have more to do with “what you do” than “what you are born with”) are critical drivers of academic success. And, importantly, they are firmly under the control of any student. In our view, these concepts as a group easily trump IQ or talent when it comes to explaining success in and outside of school. At the same time, we know that genes do matter. IQ is a metric that does help explain academic and other types of performance, and it is, for example, correlated with performance on standardized tests (even though I must stress again, hard work and structured practicewill help you improve dramatically on standardized tests whatever your starting point). So, is there a framework that can be used to think about the relationship between effort and talent in explaining academic and other types success? Which is more important? It's a tough question, but while listening to a recent episode ofthe Psychology Podcast hosted by Dr. Scott Barry Kaufman,I think I may have found an answer. My intuition has always been that both parents and students place too much value on innate or “raw” intelligence, genes, and concepts such as “talent” or IQ and not enough on effort, practice techniques, and planning in pursuit of academic or other goals. I tend to believe that many people who appear naturally smart or gifted (in any particular area) and who seem like great examples of “raw talent” actually work very hard behind the scenes to build their skills. A growing body of research, much of which has been written about in the books on our virtual book shelf of recommended reading on academic performance, supports my intuition here. So, I was interested to hear, while listening toDr. Kaufman's podcast,a description between the relationship between effort and talent offered up by Angela Duckworth, who holds a PhD in Psychology and whose research focuses on a concept called “grit” as a driver of success in life. Grit is very much wrapped up in the more simplistic notion that effort is way more important than people might realize when it comes to explaining how and why people succeed. In Grit: Perseverance and Passion for Long Term Goals, Dr. Duckworth defines grit as “perseverance and passion for long-term goals. Grit entails working strenuously toward challenges, maintaining effort and interest over years despite failure, adversity, and plateaus in progress. The gritty individual approaches achievement as a marathon; his or her advantage is stamina. Whereas disappointment or boredom signals to others that it is time to change trajectory and cut losses, the gritty individual stays the course.” So, she’s very interested in whether AND how sustained effort can lead to success. In the podcast I referenced above, she offered up a formula that I had not read about previously, but which intuitively struck me as directionally correct. I should also note againthat Dr. Duckworth is a PhD on the faculty of the University of Pennsylvania’s Psychology department, so I’d imagine that there is some significant research available that backs up the formula I’m about to describe. Beware, we are about to get into just a little bit of algebra. She first offered by the following formula â€" Performance = SKILL x EFFORT. This means that how well you do is a function of how much skill you have and how much effort you put into the task. I’d imagine this seems intuitively true to most people. She then offered up another formula â€" SKILL = TALENT x EFFORT. Here, she’s suggesting skill is a function of two things. First, it does have to do with talent, which she describes as the factor that is driven by genetic makeup and natural ability. It’s what you are born with. However, skills are also a function of how much effort you put into building skills. Practice builds skills, and practice requires effort. Using some simple algebraic substitution, we get to â€" Performance = [TALENT x EFFORT] x EFFORT, which reduces to â€" Performance = TALENT x EFFORT2 What this means is that effort shows up twice when you try to explain performance. In this sense, then, effort is twice as important as talent when it comes to explaining success (as a general rule). Consider this in two different contexts: baseball and math. In baseball, you build your hitting skills through repeated practice, working on your technique and building hand-eye coordination. Your ability to hit is, I think obviously, a function of some starting point of skill and the effort you put into building skill. Now, when you are playing in an actual game, your performance is based on this skill as well as the effort you put into paying attention, running your fastest to get to first base or chase down the fly ball, etc. If you are highly skilled but feeling sick, haven’t slept, and just broke up with your girlfriend (so your mind is wandering), you’ll perform far worse than you otherwise would. In a math class, the same is true. The math skills required to do well on a big algebra test are a function of the effort you put into paying attention in class and doing your homework, and your natural math ability. On the day of the test though, if you are sleepy and your mind is not in the right place, or if you are disorganized and show up late, your performance will suffer, even if your skills are strong. In our next article, we’ll explore some interesting implications of the Performance = TALENT x EFFORT2 formula for success. To explore some of the topics we’ve touched on in this article, consider reading the following books or web-sites: Mindset â€" The New Psychology of Success or http://www.mindsetonline.com/ How Children Succeed â€" Grit, Curiosity, and the Hidden Power of Character or http://www.paultough.com/ The Talent Code â€" Greatness Isn’t Born.

4 Superfoods You Should Eat Daily

4 Superfoods You Should Eat Daily Image via theawesomegreen.com According to Health.com, though there is no medical definition, superfoods are nutrient powerhouses that pack large doses of antioxidants, polyphenols, vitamins, and minerals. Eating them may reduce the risk of chronic disease, and prolong life, and people who eat more of them are proven to be healthier and thinner than those who dont. Incorporating superfoods into your daily diet is a lot simpler than you think and is actually a tasty way to get some of the most vital vitamins and minerals that your body requires to function at its optimal potential. Most of these items can be found at your local grocer, farmer’s market, or you can even order them online. You don’t have to pick up all of them, but grab one or two the next time you’re shopping for food, as they are a small investment with a big impact. Everyone’s superfood preferences may vary, and there are plenty that I did not include in this list, but adding any of these to your routine will only do your body good! 1. Cacao An often overlooked superfood, raw cacao is essentially chocolate in its purest form and is rich in antioxidants, magnesium, and lipids. It is also known for battling free radicals and aiding in depression and cardiovascular health. Image via Onegreenplanet.org Cacao can easily be incorporated into breakfast meals or healthy desserts. I like to blend cacao powder, almond butter, and coconut milk to my after workout smoothies or sprinkle cacao nibs on top of my oatmeal or yogurt. Cacao pairs deliciously with apples or bananas. Try your hand at cooking with cacao with this recipe for decadent vegan raw cacao truffles. 2. Chia Seeds Originally grown in Mexico, chia seeds are valued for their medicinal properties and nutritional value. Aztec warriors ate chia seeds to give them high energy and endurance. They said just one spoonful of chia could sustain them for 24 hours. Chia means “strength” in the Mayan language, and they were known as “runners food” because runners and warriors would use them as fuel while running long distances or during battle. Today, chia seeds have become one of the most popular superfoods due to the same reasons. The chia seed is  nutrient dense and packs a punch of energy boosting power. They aid in burning fat, increasing energy, and even to reduce signs of aging. Chia seeds pack a ton of antioxidants that help in replacing the nutrients lost when exercising. They’re high in essential minerals like calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, manganese and copper. A unique property of the chia seed is that it can absorb up to 10 times its own weight in water. As a result, the seeds increase hydration and improve nutrient absorption of electrolytes, which helps to slow digestion, thus keeping you feeling fuller for longer. Chia seeds can be consumed raw and sprinkled on just about anything from salads to yogurts. For a sweet breakfast or snack full of vitamins and minerals try making this overnight chocolate chia seed pudding, which you can whip up before bed and take on the go the next day! 3. Maca Root Maca, grown in the mountains of Peru, is a root that belongs to the radish family and is most commonly available in powder form. Maca is rich in vitamin B, C, and E as well as calcium, zinc, iron, magnesium, and amino acids. Maca root has been prized for generations as an energy enhancer and mood stabilizer. It’s nutritionally and powerfully complex with a plethora of health (and beauty) enhancing ingredients. Image via blissfulbasil.com When you first start using maca powder, it’s best to begin by taking smaller amounts and building up, starting with 1/2 teaspoon and eventually increasing to 1 tablespoon as an average daily dose, rotating a few days on and off. I rotate between coffee and maca smoothies when in need of a morning workout energy boost but you can utilize maca powder in many different foods. Be sure not to add maca to hot foods or beverages, as that will cause it to lose many of its nutritional benefits. Check out this link for five easy ways to utilize maca powder in food, such as in shakes or raw treats. 4. Goji Berries You might have heard of goji berries and not have given them much consideration, but their health benefits may cause you to give this tart berry a second thought. Also known as wolfberries, goji berries are sweet in taste and bright in color. Their history as a medicinal plant has roots in ancient China, where goji berries are still used to treat eye, liver, and kidney ailments. The fruit’s many nutritional claims have now made it popular in the United States. Though most often sold dried, goji berries also can be found and grown fresh. For a breakfast treat, try them in cereal, oatmeal, or yogurt. Try mixing goji berries with raw nuts and dark chocolate chips for homemade trail mix. You can also drink your goji in the the form of goji juice or tea. Goji berries also taste great cooked with lean pork or turkey, adding a savory sweetness to hearty dishes.

Facebook Plugin Could Change the Way You Read News

Facebook Plugin Could Change the Way You Read News stocksnap.io De, a student at the University of Massachusetts, attended a hackathon at Princeton University this week. The prompt? Develop a technology project in a time period of 36 hours. She also suggested that her teammates build an algorithm that would authenticate real vs fake on Facebook. And she and her team did it. De, Anant Goel (Purdue University), Mark Craft and Qinglin Chen (University of Illinois) created an extension in a Chrome browser that will tag links in Facebook with “verified” or “not verified.” This is done by considering factors such as “the source’s credibility and cross-checking the content with other news stories.” And if a link isn’t verified? The plugin also provides a summary of credible information on the same topic, to help clarify what the actual news is. And of course, it has a fantastic name: FiB. And because the students are still in school and only had a little over a day to create this plugin, they’ve released this as an “open-source project.” This means that it can be improved by anyone with the experience to do so. And the plugin is available for the masses, but they can’t meet the high demand on their own. So FiB isn’t currently up and running for everyone to use. But the idea is there, and the content is sure to follow quickly, especially with this type of demand. According to Goel, the idea is that Facebook would eventually work with third-party developers to manage news articles on the site themselves. The Princeton hackathon was sponsored by Facebook, as well as other tech vendors, but hasn’t reported reaching out to FiB to help in any way. Same goes for Google, who has been having the same problems. However, both companies have stated that they are going to “take steps” to fix the problem at hand. But the problem is a big one, and it’s only getting worse for the time being. According to BuzzFeed News, over 100 sites made up pro-Trump content (which was traced to Macedonia). In a Washington Post interview of Paul Horner, a fake-news creator, he stated, “I think Trump is in the White House because of me. His followers don’t fact-check anything they’ll post everything, believe anything.” And Melissa Zimdars, professor at Merrimack College in MA, also says she’s seen this problem when her students go to site references for essays. She made the following list, which has gone viral, as a warning to students looking at fake news sites: •Watch out if known/reputable news sites are not also reporting on the story. Sometimes lack of coverage is the result of corporate media bias and other factors, but there should typically be more than one source reporting on a topic or event. •If the story makes you REALLY ANGRY it’s probably a good idea to keep reading about the topic via other sources to make sure the story you read wasn’t purposefully trying to make you angry (with potentially misleading or false information) in order to generate shares and ad revenue. She also stated that it doesn’t help when news media uses click-bait headlines and that it’s nearly impossible to distinguish these from fake stories. There’s also the issue of whether or not people even know they’re sharing fake links. According to Paul Mihailidis, teacher at Emerson College: “I don’t think a lot of people didn’t know; I think they didn’t care. They saw it as a way to advocate. The more they could spread rumors, or could advocate for their value system or candidate, that took precedent over them not knowing. A large portion of them didn’t stop to critique the information. One of the things that has happened is people are scrolling through [Facebook] and the notion of deep reading is being replaced by deep monitoring. They see a catchy headline, and the default is to share.” However, this isn’t the only problem. There’s also the fact that people scrolling through their news feed on a social media site aren’t necessarily looking to fact-check, which means they aren’t looking up stories to verify whether or not they’re true. So in this way, the plugin is a perfect solution. According to De: “A few days back, I read an article telling people they can drill a jack in the iPhone7 and have an earphone plug, and people started doing it and ruining their phones. We know we can search on Google and research it, but if you have five minutes and you’re just scrolling through Facebook, you don’t have time to go verify it.”

Uloop Morning Scoop This College Has a Required Class on Patriotism via Pixabay In a distinctly smelly story in the New York Times this week, reporter Anne Barnard examines the situation in Lebanon, where there are plenty of dogs and with dogs comes dog poop but very few people who are willing to pick it up. Beruit resident  Jad Nawfal told Barnard, To Lebanese people, he said, wrinkling his nose, it’s kind of embarrassing to pick up poop. How about picking their way past dog feces on the streets? If it is not on their personal property, he said, They just don’t care. Read the whole stinky story here. GRAMBLING STATE KILLER STILL ON THE LOOSE Two people, including one student, were shot and killed at Grambling State on Wednesday. (Image: YouTube/CNN) Two men were fatally shot on the campus of Grambling State University in Louisiana early Wednesday morning and the shooter has yet to be found. “Grambling State University Director of University Communications Will Sutton said the victims were Earl Andrews, a senior at GSU, and Monquiarious Caldwell, who was not a student. Both men were 23 years old and from Farmerville, Louisiana,”  according to a report from ABC News.   The Washington Post  reports  that the murders  have “shaken the campus, a small community of 5,188 mostly black students, where the loss of a student is ‘truly a loss of a member of a family,’ said Richard J. Gallot Jr., the university’s president. The shooting occurred during Homecoming Week, when the school,  in the city of Grambling, sees a spike in visitors.” Thursday, here we come.   And remember, you can use Uloop to find a part time job on your campus, connect with a tutor  or get a head start on housing for next year.   And dont forget, if youre into that email thing: Enter your email below to get the Morning Mix as a daily email: Please enter Email

Creative writing, talent or skill

Creative writing, talent or skill Writing of any sort is not easy but perhaps creative writing is the hardest of all. Creative writing falls into the fiction/non-fiction or poetry categories, but essentially it's purpose is to express thoughts, feelings and emotions, rather than to simply convey information. Perhaps you have noticed that your child has a vivid imagination and loves reading books and inventing his/her own stories? Perhaps you are an adult and have always wanted to learn how to transfer your thoughts and emotions to paper but don't know where to start? Although there are many websites about creative writing, dedicated to both adults and children; a private tutor can provide invaluable help to boost the imagination and master the techniques of creative writing. There has been much a debate on whether creative writing is an inert talent or learned skill. Most experts would agree that it's a bit of both - skill and talent can work together. If English was always your best subject at school and you also enjoyed the lessons, this could be an indication of what you wish to study for a future career. Creative writing is a skill and that's why we have this category in our Arts Crafts website together with many other skills: drama, painting, photography to list a few. Just like other artists, musicians and other creative people, they all follow a similar path - a passion hones through years of learning and practice. True dedication will result in truly wonderful writings.
