Vocabulary Video 1 How is the discussion of the word symbol helpful in a small group focused on vocabulary? The small group that Debbie Deiller is teaching consists of 3rd graders. They are still learning how to identify new vocabulary and the meaning. Some words seem to be hard to them but they discover a tactic to help them understand the meaning of the words. The tactic is to simply read the sentence before and after the word and get to know what the word is talking about. The discussion of the word symbol is helpful in this group because the children understand what a symbol is. They identify the symbol the book is referring to which is the flag. They also understand that the flag is a symbol of their country. This way, the children learn the meaning of the word symbol through something they relate to. Why do you think Debbie chose to highlight this word? In the book they are reading, there is the word symbol and cymbal. These words might confuse the students because they have…
Role of pictures in passing information Countries all over the world are concerned about the safety of their citizens. The smooth running of nations can only be guaranteed when its citizens feel secure and are free in their country. Some situations, however, jeopardize a country’s security and affect its economy negatively for example terrorism. Years back, members of an Islamic terrorist group executed a deadly attack in the United States where thousands were killed by crashing airplanes in the Pentagon and the world trade Centre. Words alone may not be enough to describe how intense a situation is. Photos play a massive role in conveying messages and help in better understanding of the subject matter. Figure 1; 9/11, Digital Image, December 15, 2016. Image Captured from https://www.people-press.org/2016/12/15/americans-name-the-10-most-significant-historic-events-of-their-lifetimes/ Image by Robert Giroux gives memories of the terrorist attack that happened on 9th September 2001. The impact of the attack is observed as a catastrophic one since fire is seen consuming a tall building that had thousands of occupants (Giroux). Thousands suffered physical injuries and psychological trauma. Survivors and people related…
Structural Progressive Collapse Structural progressive collapse occurs due to the failure of primary structural elements that result in the failure of the adjacent structural elements. The structural failure can result in the collapse of the whole structure or a large part of it. The progressive structural collapse can due to factors such as design errors, inferior materials, or as a result of natural factors such as earthquakes and Tsunamis(Craven, 2018). A building can also experience progressive structural collapse due to deliberate acts such as terrorism, war, or demolition. Although no building is risk-free from progressive structural collapse, engineers need to perform informed risk assessment to reduce the chances of collapse. Engineers should consider methods of improving structural integrity and robustness to cater to local failures. To prevent progressive structural collapse, engineers need to incorporate the following measures: one, structural redundancy where redundant load paths are incorporated in a vertical load-carrying system. Redundancy ensures there are alternate load paths when local failure of primary structural elements occurs. Second, engineers need to use ties when constructing structures. The failure of significant structural…
Legislation of Medical Marijuana Introduction The discussion surrounding the legalization of the controversial medical marijuana in Florida led people to the ballot in 2014. The author of the article, “medical marijuana legislation in Florida: the recommendation vs. prescription for healthcare providers,” Nicole Santamaria, focuses on the legalization process of marijuana for medical use in Florida, published in 2016. The article points out the issues surrounding the legislation of marijuana into law. Following the contradiction of cannabis being an illegal substance under the Controlled Substance Act, physicians find themselves in a dilemma on whether to discuss or even administer marijuana to patients in fear of breaking the law and being convicted (Cerdá, Wall, Keyes, Galea, & Hasin, 2012). This article argues that Florida, as a state, should focus on helping their health workers alleviate their fears of breaking the law. This will put them in a position to discuss the medical uses of marijuana with their patients freely and administer it when necessary. Case studies by clinical and health workers have proved that cannabis has medicinal value and can…
Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night Diction Dylan Thomas has combined texture and rhymes that use rhyme scheme of ABA ABA ABA ABA and using rich repetitive lines (Thomas, 2020). The stressed or unstressed words are used by the author to create a lilt effect. Thomas has played with the words to create enjambment whereby the line breaks occurs in the middle of the poem. For example, Thomas notes that “Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight/Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay” in the fifth stanza. He plays around with the words by seeing with blinding sight, Thomas implies that the men see their earlier life with extreme clarity, but he uses blind eyes to imply literal blindness. Dramatic context Thomas was inspired to write the poem by the death of his father. By witnessing the death of his father, the narrator focuses on the death in a general way, and he uses four categories of men, including wise men, good men, wild men and grave men. This is a villanelle poem since…
Liberty and Freedom Liberty and freedom are two terms that are commonly used all over the world, and that seems to carry the same meaning. Some times it might be confusing as people find it difficult on which word to use between the two terms. However, the fact is that these two terms have distinctive characteristics that aid in depicting their variations in meaning even though they are used for the common good. Freedom can be defined as the state whereby one is not restricted to enjoy social, political, and civil independence. It is the free will or the ability of every person to make choices free from restrictions. In this case, everyone has the power to decide on his or her actions, and the state of being free from any form of confinement. Just like the definition of John Locke, it is right to say that in the state of nature, man has the right to decide on what to do freely. On the other hand, liberty is the right and power in which people believe, do, and express…

Ethical Dilemma: Informed Consent Summary With the rise of technology and easier access to an individual’s personal information, nurses must protect the privacy of patient’s health information. During research studies, nurses need to be aware of processes for obtaining informed consent as they may be utilized to identify potential participants, acquire informed consent documents, aid in data collection, or be called upon by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) to assist in an ethical review of a study (Grove, Gray, and Burns, 2015). It is not an uncommon occurrence for informed consent to be confused with the consent form document itself. Informed consent is more than just a signature, but a process of communication and interaction between the researcher and participants that confirms his or her willingness to participate in the research trial after digesting all relevant information about what participation means (Hardicre, 2015). Furthermore, before consent from a participant is confirmed they are entitled to the following information; (1) they should know the purpose or reason their clinical test; risks involved, due side effects of the process, and expected…
