...I took my time reviewing the feedback provided on my first submitted essay for English 101. I noticed several positive areas in my writing. The first area is having the ability to provide readers with good, well placed examples throughout the essay. The second area of strength is grammar. This is an area that can use improvement however, it is at an advancing level. The best part about receiving feedback is being given a chance to learn from a mistake. A few areas I learned I need to focus on improving would be to state a clear and concise thesis statement letting my readers know exactly what my main point is and what to expect in my paper. I also need to avoid using a passive voice. By writing in a passive voice my essay was wordy and at times...

...AP Chemistry Summer Assignment Mr. Ronnenkamp Welcome to SPHS AP Chemistry!! You already have a background in chemistry from your General Chemistry class, but AP Chem is very different. Rather than memorizing how to do particular types of problems, you must really understand the chemistry and be able to apply it to different kinds of problems. AP Chemistry is a challenging course. To succeed, you must keep up with the assignments and be willing to spend time working through the material. Like all AP classes, AP Chem comes with a summer assignment. It is due the second day of class - August 25th - and will count as ½ of a test grade. ALL YOUR ANSWERS FOR THE SUMMER ASSIGNMENT SHOULD BE PUT ON ANOTHER SHEET OF PAPER!!!! We will then have a CLASS TEST on the SUMMER ASSIGNMENT ON 9/1/2015 (depending on schedule)!!! This class test will count as the second ½ of your first test grade. I check my e-mail frequently, so feel free to contact me if you are having problems doing the summer assignment. I can offer help via email. My e-mail address is: ronnenkampd@pcsb.org Please take the summer assignment seriously. Completing the summer assignment will allow you to enter AP Chemistry in August ready to succeed!!!! Each section of the summer assignment is referenced with web tutorials to help you if you have forgotten some of your General Chemistry, but feel free to use any good website. I will also be giving you access to an online textbook. ONLINE...

...IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON POWER DELIVERY, VOL. 25, NO. 3, JULY 2010 1637 A Novel Three-Phase to Five-Phase Transformation Using a Special Transformer Connection Atif Iqbal, Member, IEEE, Shaikh Moinuddin, Member, IEEE, M. Rizwan Khan, Sk. Moin Ahmed, Student Member, IEEE, and Haithem Abu-Rub, Senior Member, IEEE Abstract—The first five-phase induction motor drive system was proposed in the late 1970s for adjustable speed drive applications. Since then, a considerable research effort has been in place to develop commercially feasible multiphase drive systems. Since the three-phase supply is available from the grid, there is a need to develop a static phase transformation system to obtain a multiphase supply from the available three-phase supply. Thus, this paper proposes a novel transformer connection scheme to convert the threephase grid supply to a five-phase fixed voltage and fixed frequency supply. The proposed transformer connection outputs five phases and, thus, can be used in applications requiring a five-phase supply. Currently, the five-phase motor drive is a commercially viable solution. The five-phase transmission system can be investigated further as an efficient solution for bulk power transfer. The connection scheme is elaborated by using the simulation and experimental approach to prove the viability of the implementation. The geometry of the fabricated transformer is elaborated in this paper. Index Terms—Five phase, multiphase, three phase, transformer, ...

...Effective College Level Writing COLL 100 AMU/APUS Strategies for Effective College Level Writing Included are five good strategies for effective college level writing. According to Carter (2008), "College Students are held to a much higher standard than high school students, even those who are enrolled in an AP course." To help the student write at a higher standard, the student needs to plan for the assignment, avoid writers block, talk about their ideas for the assignment, proofread and revise their assignment, and learn from their mistakes. Planning the student's assignment is a good strategy for effective college level. According to McCutchen (2011), "Planning was subsumed under the broader label reflection, which encompasses problem solving (including planning), decision making, and inferencing." (p. 52). Therefore planning is a critical aspect for effective college level writing. To have a good plan, the student needs to understand the assignment. According to Riedinger (n.d.)"Don not assume that every teacher expects the same type of writing or research or that every assignment, even from the same teacher, will be the same." According to Carter (2008), "Understanding the purpose of an assignment is vital, particularly at the college level where professors will assign a broader range of paper styles." The student needs to read the instructions more than once, go back, and read them throughout the assignment. Getting all the students research complete...

Black, PhD (also called “Dr. B”) Email: Use the Messages feature in the classroom to email me. Table of Contents Course Description (Catalog) | This course introduces students to writing computer programs. The class presents the principles of structured programming using the BASIC language, perhaps the most common language for personal computers. Because of its ease of use it is ideal as a first programming language and runs on both the PC and Macintosh platforms. The course is designed for people without previous programming experience who do not necessarily plan on becoming professional programmers. However, the knowledge gained in the class can be applied later to other languages such as C and Java. Participants learn to solve problems logically by breaking them into smaller pieces, which can then be solved. Topics include: introduction to computing - how does a computer work?; input and output - getting information to and from the user; variables and expressions - performing arithmetic; data...

...why? AMU It has always been a goal of mine to go to college get my degree however, sometimes goals change or get pushed down the list as you get older just as our learning styles may change. I attended Austin Peay University in Clarksville, TN from 2003 to end of 2004 while playing football for the university. Unfortunately I did not finish and now 9 years later my goal to get my degree is on its way to coming true. The military has helped financially by paying for school with Tuition Assistance and the GI Bill. I will achieve these goals by overcoming adversity and the tasks that are presented to me. As I go through this journey, I will use and learn different learning styles to achieve this goal but what styles are you most commonly using every day? I asked myself and considered this too. Firstly, when I look back to when I was a child I remember in class having to read material over and also asking the teacher to repeat directions for the assignment. I also notice today that I am not a good auditory listener based on past experiences in school and the different jobs I have worked at. Besides this, I am excellent in the visual and hands on learning styles. I can usually see something done once and be able to do it. I took a quiz from the website https://www.learning-styles-online.com/inverntory and answered a number of questions. As a result of these questions, it showed all the different learning styles and how they relate to me. My number one learning...

The course differs from the traditional Western Civilization class in that the entire world rather than Europe alone is the focus of study. The central questions the course will ask are these: What is Modernity, that is, what do we mean when we ask of "the modern world" in which we live? How have the political, social, cultural, and economic forces that we associate with modernity changed our world and its people during the past 500 years? Why has the intercommunication, interaction, and interdependence of the peoples of the world become so much more intense during the past 500 years than they were in earlier ages? How and why did western civilization rise to global domination in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and how has the challenge of western power and cultural prestige affected the course of history of all the World's people? Finally a question that we should be asking throughout the semester: how have the patterns of world history over the past 500 years determined or affected 1) the way we now live and think, and 2) our prospects for peace, prosperity, and the "pursuit of happiness" in the coming decades?
