Chemistry - The Two Kinds of Cobalt

Chemistry - The Two Kinds of CobaltHave you ever heard of the term 'cobalt' in chemistry? Have you ever wondered if it was the same as the metal gold, or if it was a rare and valuable element? Well, Cobalt is indeed an important and unique element. It is not quite the same as the gold, but it is quite close.Cobalt has many characteristics that make it unique. It has two oxygen atoms at the center of its crystal structure. If you were to break this atomic structure down, you would find two oxygen atoms that were connected by one hydrogen atom. This means that there are two hydrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms that are connected by one oxygen atom.Now, let's say that the oxygen atoms bonded with one another, but they did not have the hydrogen bond. In this case, you would not find the oxygen atoms, because the bonding atoms would be missing and therefore you would not find oxygen.If you had a little more time, you could read up on what Cobalt actually is. The element is referred to as a transition metal. These metals are not the actual metals, but rather molecules that have a bond that is different from the normal atoms that we are used to.In chemistry, these are referred to as transition metals because they are a small molecule that undergoes a change in the way it behaves, in some instances, changing the way it absorbs and releases heat. This is a very exciting discovery because it means that there are new compounds that can be made. We will just have to wait and see what the next discovery of this type of element will be.Cobalt has become quite popular in recent years because of the fact that it is now used in nuclear fusion power plants. It is now one of the most abundant elements on earth and it is mostly found in cobalt-based minerals and manganese-based rocks.Therefore, the human brain can use Cobalt to have the kind of energy that it needs. There is no such thing as a totally energy-efficient device, but there are some devices that can use the kind of ener gy that we need, and it is through the conversion of Cobalt into Electron Beams that makes this possible. It would be great if there was more of it on the planet, because then, we would all be able to use the power that our brains are capable of.

Why Reading is Important 14 Ways Reading Helps Your Life - Private Tutoring

Why Reading is Important 14 Ways Reading Helps Your Life Anna L Dec 3, 2018 Find a Top Rated Reading Tutor Near You! It's Simple and Secure - Get Real Results Fast. Find Expert Private Tutors at Reasonable Rates Today! InPerson or Online Online InPerson Why reading is important is a question most parents have heard from kids or even their partners. You’ve probably heard it a hundred times or more â€" read, it’s good for you! But does anyone actually answer your question of ‘why reading is good for you?’ The good news is that simply by reading this article, you are beginning to understand what reading can do for you. Our goal here is to help you understand why reading is good for your health, what reading can do for you as well as the scientific benefits of it. Reading Benefits: Scientific Benefits of Reading The scientific benefits of reading are becoming more and more known, here are some of the top scientific explanations as to why you should pick up that book! Boost brain power â€" in the same way that going for a run improves your cardiovascular fitness, reading will help enhance your memory and brain function. As we get older, both these functions tend to decline. Regular reading can significantly delay this decline as well as helping to prevent the onset of diseases such as Alzheimer’s. Reading helps your mental sharpness to stick around a little longer, much more so than watching a movie! Reducing stress â€" immersing yourself with a good page-turner can help switch off from the pressures of day-to-day life. Research suggest that even reading a book for a mere six minutes after a stressful day is a great way to relax and recharge the batteries, even more so than listening to music â€" another favorable stress-busting technique. Try reading for a few minutes each day, or on your commute to work (providing your not driving of course!) Improves empathy â€" understanding others will lead to positive and long-lasting relationships. Engaging with literary characters can help the brain make connections that help the reader understand other points of view and help with recognizing emotions. Just like athletes use visualization techniques to improve muscle memory to enhance their sporting performance, reading novels can help brain connectivity. Why Reading is Good for Your Health While many of us understand that reading might have benefits on our mind as well as our memories (and thats critical the older we get), understanding our it might help our overall health is not quite as well known.   Heres just a few reasons to consider reading more: Increases motivation â€" people who read books about people doing things, fact or fiction, are more likely to engage in the activity themselves. This could be drastic and crazy such as climbing mountains or taking on large travel adventures, or simple like taking up a new hobby such as cooking or knitting. Can combat poor mental health â€" improving mental health often goes hand in hand with reducing stress, but reading about others in similar situations is useful too. Biographies are great way to understand that you are not alone in your battle, and the large number of self-help books allows people to access advice and guidance from the comfort of their own home without stigma or embarrassment. Naturally, professional medical advice should also be sought. Independent thinking â€" characters and plots are often portrayed in ways to sway our thinking. Authors usually deliberately make characters likable or loathed, but every so often we come across a book that makes us think outside the typical box. You may like the story, but not the characters, or vice-versa. This highlights our individuality and makes for great conversation when discussing a book with others. Armchair education â€" reading biographies and other factual or historical books will provide an abundance of knowledge. Even reading articles such as this one will teach you something. However, even fictional books based around true events or set in specific historical periods will captivate us even more and we learn without even realizing it! Old School Paper Books vs Modern Day e-Readers E-readers are becoming more and more popular, and don’t get me wrong, they are great! They have the capacity to store large numbers of books on a small device which is great when traveling or commuting. But there is something special about turning the paper pages of a book. The good news is that many e-reader owners still love a printed book, and here are some reasons why this should continue; Sleep better â€" including reading as part of a bedtime routine can help signal to your body that the time for sleep is near. However, using an e-reader can actually wake the brain up courtesy of the backlit screen. Reading a printed book by a lamp is a much better way to slow the body down and prepare for a good night’s rest. Plus it aids in all the other ways that we’re covering here. Improves memory function â€" turning pages will actually help you remember what you have read more so than ‘clicking’ to the next page. Many people may find this is the reason they print important documents rather than reading them off a computer screen. Books also allow for easier flicking back and forth to help remember important events or characters. How Does Reading Make You Smarter? Reading is beneficial at any age, but like most things, the earlier you start the better. Not only does it help form positive habits, but it may also make you smarter â€" something that will help significantly with your education. Some of the benefits of reading for students and young people include; Reading can help children develop a longer attention span, and when it comes to schooling this one has obvious benefits. Because stories have a structure that includes and beginning, middle and end, children are captivated for a fairly lengthy amount of time. Exposure to vocabulary â€" reading exposes students to around 50% more words than television or even conversation. As children, and adults for that matter, read they come across new words regularly. These new words then tend to be used in conversation and writing. Using a larger array of words will make you not only sound more intelligent, but you will generally be more intelligent. In the case of students, those that have a larger vocabulary are more likely to gain attention from their teachers which can improve confidence and promote further learning. Improved reading comprehension, spelling, grammar is seen in those children who read for fun. Creating a love and habit for reading at an early age has a profoundly positive impact on education. Exposure through story time, following parental leads and positive encouragement, are all ways to promote reading. Developing the imagination and creativity. Children who read do not necessarily go on to be writers, journalists or editors. The creative part of the brain is wide.y used when students read â€" they imagine themselves in the story line. Creativity is the key to success in many careers, and so much of it can be gained from reading! Reading provides entertainment you can take anywhere! Books, especially those developed for children are often small and portable. E-readers are even more compact and can store thousands of stories. Whether a child is camping, waiting for the bus, eating a snack or preparing for bed â€" reading can be done virtually anywhere, any time! No more “I’m bored” statements!

Teaching English to Young Learners in Japan

Teaching English to Young Learners in Japan Ah, Japan. From carving up fresh-fallen powder in Honshu to dining on mind-blowing Nigiri, Sashimi, and Maki (I mean, it’s a sushi lover’s Mecca), Japan is a country rich in incredibly beautiful cultural anomalies and unique opportunities. Perhaps, what’s most exciting to the Teach Away team are the opportunities to teach English abroad in Japan to a most curious audience; the young learners. With a population of 126.9 million living in a geographic footprint 26 times smaller than the Canadian continent, the island of Japan is comprised primarily of native Japanese people. This has kept so much of its beautiful culture intact but has had the drawback of leaving it largely unfamiliar with the English language. Approximately 72% of Japanese people ages 20 to 49 suggest they cannot speak English or cannot speak it proficiently. It is, therefore, a country ripe with opportunity for certified ESL teachers looking to teach English in a spectacular setting where the population has a huge appetite for learning English, especially from a very young age. Learning English in Japan starts (very!) young Due to continued expansion and widespread adoption of English as a “global” language, it has become pretty common for non-English speaking countries to invest in teaching English (yay for Teach Away!) as a language within the core school curriculum. In Japan, foreign residents (i.e. non-Japanese people) make up only approximately 3.8% of the population, with more than half of those being from non-English speaking countries (such as Vietnam and China). So you can imagine that hearing any spoken English can be pretty rare! As a result, ensuring Japanese youth are learning English has become a key area of focus for the country, with children being introduced to ESL as early as nine months of age! These “Young Learners” present a unique and exciting opportunity for certified ESL teachers. The delight of seeing an infant clapping after using the right word would bring joy to the hearts of most people. Now imagine that as a part of your day-to-day job? So awesome! What’s great about teaching young learners in Japan? To start with, younger students learn incredibly fast, making it a really rewarding experience as a teacher to watch their progress. Not to mention, the enthusiasm for English from younger learners can be infectious. And the learning experience is super fun too, with teachers enjoying the crafts, games, and other activities just as much as their students. As well, Japan’s education system is changing in response to the ever-expanding global workplace and the technological advancements that continue to break down physical barriers. This means there are more opportunities than ever for certified English-speaking teachers who are keen to explore this great country while using their skills and talents. Teaching others (particularly little humans!) how to master a new language, especially one as challenging and highly nuanced as English, is an impressive strength. And it is now one that is deeply appreciated in Japan, where the government and education system understand that English plays a larger role in international collaboration. Of course, really excellent communication skills are a must when teaching English and especially to very young children. As a result, native English speaking teachers are in high-demand in Japan. Employing teachers from countries such as the U.S. and Canada gives kids exposure to a new language, but also to new ideas and perspectives. It’s a window into the world beyond the only world they know, at an age where their curiosity is at an all-time high. Teaching English to young learners in Japan is about more than just learning the language. For Japanese parents, it is about exposing their children to a global mindset, something that people all over the world can relate to and appreciate. What you will find as an English teacher to young learners is that most parents of these young learners are enthusiastic, supportive, and appreciative for the chance to engage their youngsters in English. This openness makes for a very active parent participant, supporting deeper learning and engagement in both the school and home spaces. What you need to know about teaching young learners in Japan? There are, of course (as in life!), many options when it comes to teaching young learners in Japan. There are traditional methods and schools, and there are alternatives. For example, there are a number of schools and programs that address young learners as one of many audiences, including teaching programs for adults and kids of all ages. There are also those that are entirely focused on teaching English to young learners and tend to have a more youth-centric focus (read: they’re pretty fun!). Not all programs are made the same One of these youth-focused organizations is Benesse BE studio Inc., which offers exciting English learning programs for children. BE studio currently operates over 1,700 schools across Japan, with over 2,000 teachers focusing on supporting young learners with their English skills. Teach Away had the chance to chat with Alex Barnes, Training and Quality Supervisor at BE studio. The North Carolina native has been teaching and working in Japan for many years, and with BE studio since Spring of 2018. He notes that when it comes to teaching for an organization like BE studio, “Teachers might have a lot of students but schools tend to be small, so a typical work environment is more personal and friendly than many large private conversation schools or public schools. We also have regular workshops to improve teaching skills, and because new and experienced teachers come to share ideas, it’s a very supportive environment.” Programs that focus on young learners also benefit from having more tailored programs and greater parent engagement, which leads to an active and collaborative learning environment. Invested parents create engaged kids! As any parent knows, the difference between how a two-year-old learns and a five-year-old learns is as vast as the geography that separates Canada and Japan. In certain settings and with certain young age groups, it can be challenging to manage expectations of excited parents ready to see their children thriving in a school environment. This is mostly because it can be very hard to show progress at such a young age. For example, a three-year-old flipping through an English book and identifying certain small things can seem irrelevant. However, if provided with enthusiastic praise, these young people can deepen their connections between what they learn verbally and what they see visually. BE studio encourages the use of praise and enthusiasm to ensure their lessons are less about tests and rewards, and more about fun and encouragement. Teachers create a classroom environment where students don’t have to worry about making mistakes and can just be themselves. Every child has a dream, and English can help them achieve that dream. At BE studio, teachers find opportunities to teach children English in a way that relates to their interests and also supports them on their journey toward their dreams. This really helps parents get excited and invested in supporting their kids in a natural way at home as well as at school. And of course, the more you practice, the better you get! It might be the most rewarding thing you ever do Teaching little kids is obviously not without its challenges. However, as Mr. Barnes suggests, “When you see the ‘oh, now I get it’ look on a student’s face, or a parent tells you their child had a conversation with foreign tourists last weekend, or a student is finally able to give an English speech in front of the class by themselves, it makes it all worth it.” Alex Barnes shares a story about his early days teaching with BE studio: “I once taught a boy who started lessons at two years old. At first, he didn’t speak much and only participated in activities when encouraged by his mother. However, we continued to make sure he had lots of English input, focusing on building his listening recognition skills until he became comfortable speaking. One day, he suddenly started singing half of the lyrics to the song we had been practicing the last few weeks. It was a huge relief for his parents, and he soon became the most talkative student in the class.” There is truly no greater service than that of a teacher and the reward of shaping young people’s futures. Sign up to Teach Away today for access to the latest teaching jobs around the world. Wondering how to get started? If you think this all sounds incredible and you’re wondering where to sign up, take a minute and give some thought to the following tips and hints to make sure that teaching English to young learners in Japan is, indeed, right up your alley. Tip 1: Ask yourself if teaching little kids is right for you Many students hesitate to speak English, usually due to a fear of making mistakes or having a negative “study” image of English as a school subject. Our friends at BE studio suggest that you offer encouragement to your students and focus on having both an educational and fun approach to your lessons. When asked about the best teachers at his organization, Mr. Barnes said: “Since BE studio is focused on teaching children, especially younger learners, the training and school atmosphere is very fun. Games, songs, and crafts are a big part of lessons, so teachers that enjoy these types of activities and enjoy teaching young children are the kind of people who work here.” He noted that bringing energy and having the ability to turn on a “fun switch” is pretty critical to success. Mr. Barnes also suggested that “while there is always a ‘lesson partner’ in the room for all preschool ages to help, [the teacher] is in charge of the class, so keeping the kids engaged is always necessary. It’s also important to remember that there are different kinds of energy and teaching styles needed for different age groups. Teaching six-year-olds can be drastically different from teaching three-year-olds. It’s a good idea to pay attention to the classroom environment and how it differs with each age group, in order to develop a sense of how to adjust teaching styles to different class levels.” Tip 2: Learn everything there is to know about teaching in Japan There is so much information out there on what you need to know that how prepared you are is entirely up to you. So do your research! First, make sure you have the necessary requirements to teach English in Japan. Next, find a few guides to teaching English in Japan and read them end to end. In fact, some of our very own Teach Away-ers have shared their favorite tips for teaching English in Japan. It’s also a great idea to really read up on Japanese culture and some unique experiences teaching ESL in Japan so that you can minimize culture shock and maximize excitement. Tip 3: Ensure you’re TEFL or TESOL certified There are a few things to know about getting TEFL, TESL, or TESOL certified. Fear not! We have covered most aspects and answered most questions on the Teach Away blog in the past few years. Teach Away also offers two TEFL programs with a couple of pretty notable Universities (oh hey! U of T OISE and I House Berkeley U!). Because we offer these programs, we know a thing or two about TEFL and have shared a bunch of it through our TEFL Certification Guide. Ultimately, how you get certified is entirely up to you, of course. But do make sure you do your homework so you have the right number of hours, certificates, and education before submitting an application to teach abroad to young learners in Japan. Tip 4: Find your dream job! There are so many outlets and agencies offering teaching abroad opportunities, but not as many that include opportunities to teach young learners in Japan. Teach Away’s job board is a great place to start! In particular, BE studio has recently posted an exciting job opportunity. As long as you are well versed in what is required, and have done your homework so you know what to expect, finding your dream job should be easy as making Maki (disclaimer: Making Maki is actually NOT easy. But eating it is delicious!). Tip 5: Get ready for the adventure of a lifetime Japan is a country where adventure abounds. And as anyone who has worked with young people before can tell you, every day is a new adventure and every moment is a new opportunity to learn, grow, and smile. We suggest making a list of the activities you’re most excited to learn more about because there is a lot to do and you’re going to want to pace yourself! From incredible food to wonderful festivals, such as Setsubun, Japan has much to explore and discover. Overall, we cannot imagine a more rewarding experience or a beautiful setting to put your English language skills to use. So the only question we have left is this: what are you waiting for?

Spare the Rod and Spoil the Child - ALOHA Mind Math

Spare the Rod and Spoil the Child So, you are at supermarket billing counter with bags to carry and a child in tow, and the little one cranks up a ruckus for another bar of chocolate. You reason with the little one but your child wants to have none of it. He is stomping his feet and screaming. He’s throwing a tantrum! You are an embarrassed parent, trying to deal with the situation at hand. Sounds familiar? Welcome to the world of parenting with young children. These tiny ones are individuals with a mind of their own. Disciplining them and teaching them right from wrong at an early age goes a long way. Here are tips to deal with your child’s tantrums: Gently explain to your child why they should not make a fuss. Reason with them and get them to understand what happens if they do something, or don’t do something. Older children are mature enough to understand the situation if spoken to gently. Be firm and authoritative. Do not shout or get aggressive with your child. They are prone to rebel and do exactly the opposite of what they are supposed to do. Instead, be firm and authoritative. They should know they cannot take their parents for granted. Do not go back on your word. Once you are firm and state something, do not go back on your word. For example, if you tell your child that he cannot have the bar of chocolate, but later give in because he is crying, your child will know that they can get what they want if they fuss a little bit more. Keep things light, and make it look like a game you’re playing with the child. For example, if your child refuses to wear the seat belt, tell him that it’s a game, and the person who keeps the seat belt on till they reach the destination wins. In some cases, when all the above tactics fail, then parents can resort to the reward method. Tell your fussy child that if she eats her dinner, she gets to watch her favorite cartoon, or get some dessert. This approach should be used sparingly and not be made a habit. Disciplining is tough but essential. The method and approach varies considering different styles of parenting. Ensure a balanced disciplining method as a part of the child’s growing up years, and watch how they will turn out into bright and shiny youngsters!

Dealing with Social Anxiety You Are Not Alone

Dealing with Social Anxiety You Are Not Alone Image via. https://pixabay.com/en/stress-anxiety-depression-unhappy-2902537/ First and foremost, there is no shame in asking for help. If anything, it is admirable and it is necessary. Asking for help looks different for different individuals. Let’s talk about your friends first. Whether you are in college, post-graduate life, high school, etc., you need to have your friends by your side and you need to be honest with them about what you’re going through. I’m not saying that you need to befriend your entire dorm room building; I’m saying that you need at least a few best friends who can hold your hand when you’re out in a social situation that gives you heart palpitations. You want to find your person (or people) who will hug you and hold you if the social anxiety becomes too much and who will stay with you regardless if you are at a fun party or class or anything else. You need your people who you can wake up at 6:00 am telling them you are having a panic attack and they will run to your aid without asking any questions. Another way of asking for help and dealing with social anxiety is through therapy, counseling, support groups, etc. I am a firm believer that if every single person in the world were in therapy that the world would be a much better place. Therapy and counseling can help you in so many ways. Not only do you have a space where you can say anything without fear of judgment and without fear of other people finding out, but your therapist/counselor can give you tools that can help you in certain social situations. Professional help really does wonders and, if you get the tools from a therapist, you will be able to not just survive social situations, but rather thrive in social situations. Most universities offer services for students in this department, but there is also a lot to be said about finding someone off campus to talk to (it helps you steer away from campus politics and gives you a fresh and new place and person to talk to). Just remember, if you choose to take this route, honesty is the only option and you must be honest about your social anxiety when talking to your therapist/counselor. Family is forever and, because of this, it can be the most difficult thing in the world to be honest with them about what’s going on with you. Your family will want to help and they only become another network in your support group of coping with social anxiety. If you are entering a social situation and you can’t find your friends to talk to, call your mom, dad, sister, brother, or whoever (I’ve done this so many times). They will want to help. The larger your support system the better. Even if you aren’t with your family as much as you are with your friends (especially for out-of-state students), they will be there for you through FaceTime, text message, and I guarantee they would come visit on any weekend you needed them to, especially a high-stress social weekend. Be honest with your family because the more that they know the more they can help; they can’t be there for you if they don’t know what’s going on. Having a large support system is huge, but another great way to cope in social situations is through regular deep breathing, meditating, and a consistent exercise regimen. All of these things will help to lessen anxiety and they give you an outlet for when you are feeling particularly anxious. For example, if you’re in class and you were unexpectantly called on by a teacher and you are feeling particularly anxious, take five minutes to do some deep breathing right at your seat. It doesn’t make a scene and you can do the breathing without people noticing. There are also apps that help you with this, like Head Space, so that you can make deep breathing/meditating a part of your everyday routine. Image via. https://pixabay.com/en/emotions-sorrow-emotional-view-2764936/ The biggest takeaway message I want to give you all is that you are not alone. Even at times where you feel like the world is crumbling at your feet, you aren’t alone. There are people who are there for you, like friends, family, a therapist, or even a random person on the street. There are numbers you can call if it all becomes too much. Just remember, you aren’t alone and you do have people in your corner.

What Are the Differences Between an Agreement of Tutoring Versus a School Agreement?

What Are the Differences Between an Agreement of Tutoring Versus a School Agreement?One of the main differences between the agreement of tutoring versus a school agreement is that while in the agreement of tutoring the student is subject to a set course and expected to learn, in a school agreement the student is subject to the authority of the school. The other major difference is that in the agreement of tutoring one's tuition fees are not fixed and one may change the payment schedule according to the needs of the student. In a school agreement, students pay their fees once at the beginning of the year, and in both cases the amount of money may vary depending on the school and the cost of living.In the agreement of tutoring one is likely to be subjected to a common curriculum, which has to be studied in a set course and in a long time, regardless of the teacher. On the other hand, in a school agreement one is free to choose any subject or school from the list given, so the duration of the school contract depends on the choice.In both the agreements of tutoring and a school agreement one is subject to the rules and regulations imposed by the principal. While in the agreement of tutoring a student can opt out and move to another school if they are dissatisfied with the quality of education provided by the teacher, in a school agreement such freedom is not granted. In either case, the best option is to go for a school agreement where the teacher can advise and guide the student and his or her parents.In a school agreement, it is possible to ask for the administration to create different rules in accordance with the needs of the student and his or her parents. In addition, in a school agreement the family is given the right to change the curriculum or to ask for a better teacher. In both cases there is a provision for educational coaching, which is something that the former provides in the agreement of tutoring and which is not possible in a school agreement.With respect to the rest of the curriculum, the student will be able to select the books, CDs, DVDs and videos that he or she prefers, so he or she can concentrate on them. In a school agreement, this is not possible, as one must follow the school syllabus.Apart from the schools' rules and regulations, the school's online student community is a very important part of the agreement of tutoring because it ensures that students keep in touch with the other students during class time and allow parents to communicate with their children through the forum. The list of forums can be found on the website of the concerned school, so parents should get hold of this before enrolling their child.There are many differences between the agreement of tutoring and a school agreement, but there are also similarities in the rules and regulations of both the agreements. To check out which agreements are suitable for your child, one should find out more about school options and register for a class from an o nline school.
