Maker Movement One of the emerging trends in the realm of learning is the Maker Movement. This is a movement that seeks to encourage creativity and imagination in communities and the use of digital and physical forums to promote innovations. This paper reviews articles that have explored the Maker Movement from various perspectives. In its article, WE ARE TEACHERS STAFF (2013) explores how the Maker Movement applies in the education sector. It states that new technologies, such as robotics, 3D printing, e-textile, and microprocessors, have a special place in schools. The Maker Movement ensures that these tools are affordable either freely or cheaply, in addition to offering platforms for sharing the resulting knowledge and inventions.

I agree with this article that there is a special place of the Maker Movement in the traditional school system. However, I feel that the article does not explore how…
Variable Costing and Cost-Volume-Profit-Analysis- Article summary and importance of the concepts The first article on Cost-Volume-Profit-Analysis (CVP) suggests that the management department uses the technique for making alternative decisions. As per Jaedicke & Robichek, (1964), CVP helps to identify the breakeven volume of products. The chances of error reduce by the consistent usage of CVP. The authors have conducted a secondary research and claimed that CVP could determine changes in the net and operating income of a company. Few assumptions are made while considering the usage of CVP. The authors stated that variable costs, sales price /unit, and fixed costs remain constant. In other words, it can identify the economic features of a manufactured product. The second article on CVP highlights the importance of the concept of decision-making.

The study has been conducted on Nestle Limited, and the authors identified that when Nestle Limited faced difficulties in conducting operations and facing financial issues, CVP has helped to provide useful data and information regarding the changes. The purpose of using CVP is to determine the units of product that should be sold to gain profit. The goal of the business is to reach the break-even point. Decisions can be taken before incurring losses in the business. Again, according to Budugan & Georgescu, (2008), CVP can be used to calculate approximately the earnings of a business. Nowadays, CVP has been widely used in companies, and it is considered as a useful accounting tool. The authors suggested that in comparison to the full costing methods, CVP can accurately identify costs involved in operations, equipment, and sale activities. Additionally, CVP can be regarded as a useful method…

Slow Food Movement Food production and consumption have raised a lot of rhetorical questions around the globe. The techniques used in growing and processing different kinds of foods is creating worries to the consumers. It may sound odd to say this but the research conducted not only in America but also worldwide on the food industry indicate that a huge percentage of people are opting to take fast foods in supermarkets or restaurants not putting in mind the health risks they are exposing their bodies to. Therefore, Slow Food Movement was founded with a global initiative focusing on encouraging people to stop consumption of fast foods (Williams et al, 2015). Besides, this movement not only focusses on the nutrition of people but also preserving the heritage and culture of foods. The Slow Food Movement has tremendously grown to different parts of the world since it appreciates and promotes native food traditions (Lee et al, 2015).

Types of music suitable for children Music lovers describe music as the medicine to the soul. They go a further mile to state that music acts as a therapy for when they are stressed. I agree wholly with that not because it’s theoretical, but because I have (personally) tried it and it worked for my child and me. The way music impacted my child in a manner I could describe as magic motivated me to research how it made my parenting so much easier. It’s important for a parent to select carefully the type of music to expose his child (or children) too. Classical music is one example of the suitable types of music to play to a child among many others. Music creates a huge impact on child development in many domains which I will genuinely share.

Babies are no different from adults when it comes to responding to a…
