The objectives of the paper are to highlight the importance of project work in teaching English, to describe its main peculiarities and types, to discover how it influences the students during the educational process and if it helps to learn the language. The problem of using project work in teaching English is of great importance. Project work is characterized as one of the most effective methods of teaching and learning a foreign language through research and communication, different types of this method allow us to use it in all the spheres of the educational process. It involves multi-skill activities which focus on a theme of interest rather than of specific language tasks and helps the students to develop their imagination and creativity. Nevertheless, teachers are not keen on the idea of providing project work into their lessons because of the disadvantages this method has. The main idea of project work is considered to be based on teaching students through research activities and stimulating their personal interest. The research topic of the course paper is the process of teaching and learning a foreign language with the help of project work. The research focus of the paper is the content of project work activities. The research tasks are set as follows: to describe the principal characteristics of project work, to identify the types of projects and to analyse their benefits and pecularities...

Although the student I chose is very bright, he does have disabilities that permits his growth academically therefore qualifying him for Special Education services. This student moved to the United States at the age of 12. He spoke no English at all and had accomplished to learn English on his own determination by speaking with his adoptive parents, playing video games, and watching television. After enrolling in school he was classified and enrolled as an English Language Learner. This student has excelled at tremendous speeds. Now that he is a junior in high school, he is at a high L3 and by test scores would be considered an advanced L4 or early L5. Due to his disability and being in Special Ed classes, he will never be able to advance past a L3 status in high school. As my student was observed one could not help to observe other English language Learners in the class. You will quickly realized that no matter what part of the world people come from weather it is from Mexico, Japan, Iraq Africa or Russia, all English Language Learners begin the learning process at the same starting point, the basics. This shadowing project took place in a Junior Resource English class at Frontier High School. The student that was observed was...

Tolentino II-BSA Ang Dapat Mabatid ng mga Tagalog Andres Bonifacio Itong Katagalugan, na pinamamahalaan nang unang panahon ng ating tunay na mga kababayan niyaong hindi pa tumutulong sa mga lupaing ito ang mga Kastila, ay nabubuhay sa lubos na kasaganaan, at kaginhawaaan. Kasundo niya ang mga kapit-bayan at lalung-lalo na ang mga taga-Hapon, sila’y kabilihan at kapalitan ng mga kalakal, malabis ang pagyabong ng lahat ng pinagkakakitaan, kaya’t dahil dito’y mayaman ang kaasalan ng lahat, bata’t matanda at sampung mga babae ay marunong bumasa at sumulat ng talagang pagsulat nating mga Tagalog. Dumating ang mga Kastila at dumulog na nakipagkaibigan. Sa mabuti nilang hikayat na diumano, tayo’y aakayin sa lalong kagalingan at lalong imumulat ang ating kaisipan, ang nasabing nagsisipamahala ay nangyaring nalamuyot sa tamis ng kanilang dila sa paghibo. Gayon man sila’y ipinailalim sa talagang kaugaliang pinagkayarian sa pamamagitan ng isang panunumpa na kumuha ng kaunting dugo sa kani-kanilang mga ugat, at yao’y inihalo’t ininom nila kapwa tanda ng tunay at lubos na pagtatapat na di magtataksil sa pinagkayarian. Ito’y siyang tinatawag na "Pacto de Sangre" ng haring Sikatuna at ni Legaspi na pinakakatawanan ng hari sa Espana.

...Matt McKenzie Danielle Defoe English 4, MWF 10-1050 October 29, 2007 English Project Proposal Title: Etiquette Education Versus the High Cost for It (still working on the title) Topic and why it interested me: Education today can cost a lot of money, time, effort, and more. Thousands of students go away to school after they graduate from high school, and they will spend several years after graduating from college paying for it. College and university costs for tuition, living costs, and a social life adds up fast. The University of California at Davis annual tuition costs well over $14,000. Sacramento State University annual tuition is $11,000. Stanford University for a year costs well over $30,000. Harvard University’s annual costs for living and education is well over $41,000. Many colleges cost so much for students to live and go to school that after they graduate they will still be paying for their school for several more years. Student loans totaling well over $200,000 because of interest and the high cost of an education in today’s world. I’m interested in this topic because I can relate to it and so many of my own friends are in this same situation in different stages though. $200,000 could buy a lot of different things from a nice sports car or a house. It is ridiculous for college to cost that much money. Where does all the money go any way? How much do these college professors make in a year? Why does a college education have to cost so much...

...Diagnosing Cancer PA #2 Joseph Amado 22205484 Part One: Abstract History has a fascinating way of making itself. There are certainly many different accomplishments that make history and it time for cancer to be brought up in history. You would be surprised but the study of the human body actually started in the early 15th century. This was during the Renaissance period of our country and knowledge for the human body was right around the corner. Body autopsies were being done frequently to help understand how the body functions. A man by the name of Giovanni Morgagni started the process of studying cancer by doing autopsies that that connected to the patient’s death. Another man came into the picture around the time of 18th century named John Hunter. He made the suggestion that the cancer could be cured through surgery and that it can physically be removed from the body. Later after that idea they created an anesthesia that will allow the surgery to happen. During the 19th century they started using the microscope to help them study diseased tissue. The microscope was a great advance in technology at the time and gave them the extra edge to go deeper and see clearly. With the new invention they could go into surgery only removing the diseased tissue and advance then to see deeper in the human body. With cancer being such a big problem more and more scientist tried to tackle this disease and make theories about them. For example there was the humoral theory, lymph theory...

...Week 4 group project Nova Biomedical USA Final Draft You have asked me to research and analyze a company that we could potentially enter into a mutually beneficial business agreement with. According to research I have gathered from several different sources Nova Biomedical USA would be an excellent candidate. We have the potential to meet all of their staffing needs, just as they have the ability to become a profitable contract for us. Nova Biomedical develops, manufactures and sells advanced technology blood testing analyzers based on electrochemical and optical measuring techniques. They employ over 1,000 people and have sales and service subsidiaries in 7 countries and distributors in over 90 other countries. Nova has manufacturing facilities in Waltham and Billerica, Massachusetts, as well as Taipei, Taiwan (Unknown, 2012) “Nova is one of the 25 largest in vitro diagnostic companies in the world and the largest privately owned in vitro diagnostic company in the United States." (Unknown, 2012) As the above quote from Nova's website states they are a large company and are involved in a global industry. This is one reason Nova is a good fit for Kelly Services. In the past decade Nova had been through some trying times and a major change. They have been through two significant intellectual property lawsuits involving patents and trade secrets (Salzman, 2013). Though they came out victorious...

...Few memories as a failure on a major project from half a decade ago still vividly remains in memories. As a Research Assistant to Tim, it was my first paid job. Tim, an Engineer, worked in silos and had driver social style to his heart beat. He only communicated the expectations without delving in the details that he had in his mind. Even though the Office space was a closed knit space for 16 students, Tim seldom hung out with people to build personal relationships. He only interacted with others when there was a need. His lack of explanation on why the project was needed had left me wondering regarding purpose and design aspects of the new programming project. I struggled on how to effectively design the project and often sought help from other people, who recommended me that the project needed investment in new programming platform as old platform was incapable of achieving the project objectives. After making almost no progress on the project and wasting time in attempts to make old platform workable, I received a vehement email from Tim, stating that XYZ Inc. was deciding to scale back on funding, as no progress reports were submitted. I was shocked to learn that I was even expected to submit progress reports at the end of quarter on the undertaken project in which I had neither any clue nor communication. As an amiable person, I was too quick to reach an agreement with Tim on project deliverables. I had thought that I would be receiving friendly advice and guidance from...

...For ""Anticipated Project Size"" use your internal metrics as guidance. For example, if you use lines of code, then mentally assign ball park values to Small, Medium and Large as part of determining whether to give this criteria a high or low score. Follow a similar process ""Anticipated Duration"". Since project duration depends on project complexity, mentally categorize earlier projects as short, average or long duration to help put the current project in context. 2. After assigning a score for each criteria, view the Feasibility Study Suitability Indicator to discover the best method to use for determining project viability. 3. Omitted criteria will give an inaccurate result, so ensure all criteria are scored before checking the indicator."
