...doctors can effectively apply the process of auscultation, consequently improving medical procedures and saving the lives of several patients. But while it may appear that Church’s approach is conflicting, the stethoscope actually diverts from complete automation. In truth, the role of a stethoscope fundamentally extends a doctor’s ability to hear. Inventions such as the stethoscope cannot function on their own; they need the intellect and skill of a doctor to be whole (Church 91). In such cases, the stethoscope undeniably provides more advantages in listening, since sounds have profound meanings behind. And with a human mind to interpret these hidden meanings, it further stressed the importance of maintaining a balance of technology and human senses. Furthermore, to corroborate this idea, Church provides an example of a defining moment of his life. During his wife’s first pregnancy, Church delineates his first emotional encounter with his fetal child as he listens through an electronic stethoscope strapped to his wife’s. “Nothing promises person like these first heart sounds…But I know that in many ways I did not identify myself as a father until I heard my child’s heart, and that I couldn’t have heard this without the aid of a...

...what the specific needs of a child are in relation to these periods. The essay will discuss Montessori’s stages of growth and my understanding of the role key individuals and the environment play in a child’s optimum development. Montessori identified three main periods of growth or planes of development, quite distinct from one-another and interestingly corresponding with the phases of physical growth - with the first and last characterised by great change and the second being much calmer (Montessori, 2007a). These successive developmental stages or “series of rebirths” (Montessori, 2007a, p18) are infancy (from birth to six years), childhood (six to twelve years) and adolescence (twelve to eighteen years). The first plane of development has two sub phases; the spiritual embryo (from birth until three years) and the social embryo (three years to six years). During this first stage, the child’s mentality is unique from the following planes of development; the mind is open and highly absorbent of all and any information and environmental occurrence and nuance. According to Montessori, during the spiritual embryonic phases, the child’s mind cannot be influenced upon or subjected to direct adult influence. (Montessori, 2007a) During this time the child begins to learn how to talk, think and remember, move and walk. Montessori noted that while the body is fully formed, during this formative period the mind undergoes a kind of mental construction which sees the child greatly...

The sensory adaption stands as a development that the sense has turn out to be not as much of a quick respond. With the perception on sensory adaption maybe that when you experience a definite scent, otherwise contact, and continually going on through it, that’s when you have a transformation. With adaption and the evident within the research, for the reason that the senses and sensitivity of contact has occurred to be transformed throughout every diverse stage in the experiments, meaning receptors within individuals fingers in addition to individuals sense of taste, is sure to stop thinking about that unique touch in addition to flavor. Although your mouth as well as your nose functions close together they are able to sense substances. Amongst them, they take in a variety of receptors that deliver the consumption for the awareness of flavor in addition to a scent. Human being is proficient on observing the changes within the scents of supplementary than 10,000 unusual substances. The receptors in support of these substances are delicate for the reason that they are not protected by skin and organs as the other senses are (Board, 2011).The best way to give a response for adaption on if it is vital on the point of view, is that you need to know the term on adaption. Adaption is considered to be an adjustment to something. The...

...The Senses of the Dead: A Look into the “After Death” Christina Rossetti’s, “After Death” is a Victorian-style poem written in the 19th century. Rossetti gives a unique female perspective uncommon for that time period that paints a picture of what the dead see in their journey to the afterlife. “After Death” opens up with a simple setting before introducing the poems two characters, the man and the child. The child tells how she watches the man after she has died. He lingers over her body, mourning her death. The irony is that the man did not love she in life, but, instead, pitied her in death. This essay will examine two main elements that are used in “After Death” depicting the relationship missing and the child’s observation of the continuing absence of affection. First, Rossetti does not address the gender of the child, however, a feminine presence is felt with her description of the man and child’s relationship; both the physical and emotional aspects of the poem paint a father, daughter connection. The second is examining how “After Death” uses four out of the five senses to take us through the poem. The poem brings the reader on a journey beginning with smell and sight, then leans toward sound, and concludes with a cold touch. The senses show the absence of love between the man and the child, not by what he does, but by what she notices he does not. “After Death” has only two characters, a man and a child. The gender of the child is never mention...

...Hearing in Infants Ages Birth to 12 Months: Child Growth and Development Tamesha Robinson Collin College Child Growth and Development TECA 1354 Professor Susy A Mathews Associate Faculty Office SCC B-103 or Child Development Lab School Spring Creek Campus Development of Hearing in the Womb Infants sense of hearing under goes most of its development in the womb (Baby center) states that a baby’s inner ear fully develops by the 20th week of pregnancy. The ability to hear is fully developed at birth. While in the womb, babies can hear your heart beat, your stomach grumbling and the blood moving through the umbilical cord. Babies are even startled by loud noises. The results suggest newborns will gravitate toward and pay more attention to what may be “their mothers melodic sounds than those of other women, and will pay more attention to other similar sounds like female voices in general, than they will to even less similar sounds, like male voices. The findings add to evidence suggesting that prenatal hearing can help infants perceive the sounds of speech. It was long know that newborns can discriminate or perceive most of the acoustic properties of speech. The theoretical view is that these capacities are mostly independent of previous auditory experience and that newborns have a bias or skill for perceiving speech. Scientist...

...Synesthesia means sensation and together. This happens when you stimulate one sense and it automatically and uncontrolled makes a different sense to react on that stimulation too. For very few people, smells are stated to activate coexisting visual occurrence. There are two ways smell can be sensed, at the nose, orthonasally, and through the back of the throat as a part of flavor, retronasally. Typically, people do not take into account that smell is a part of flavor perception (Rozin, 1982: as cited in: Russell, Stevenson, & Rich, 2015), which makes it easier to examine what role the type of inducer has on the sensation. Older research has argued that synesthesia used little brain energy, but newer research has argued that it is much more...

This lesson will focus on our seeing and learning, what we remember, what we forget and what are memorable images. By the end of this chapter you should know: . That visual analysis is vital for understanding the visually intensive world in which we live. . That if you can learn to be more observant, you will see, learn, and remember more. “ The greatest thing a human soul ever does in this world is to see something.

...Poet devices help the writer to set the mood and convey the message and emotions to the reader while reading. Examples of poetic devices would include: assonance, repetition, connotation/denotation etc. When it comes to poetic sense, the six senses, using these in a poem helps to create a stronger image in the mind of the reader. The reason I chose Touchscreen by Marshall D. Jones as the best poem in the world, is because the poet uses a range of different poetic devices to project his emotion into the poem. To begin with, Jones uses repetition from start to finish. “doesn’t it feel good to touch? doesn’t it feel good to touch? doesn’t it feel good to touch?” (line 3-5). By repeating this phrase 3 times, Jones puts emphasis on the fact that,...

...Senses in “A Rose for Emily” “A Rose for Emily” is one of a several short stories written by the novelist, William Faulkner, who is well known after winning the Nobel Prize in literature. The protagonist in “A Rose for Emily” is an eccentric spinster, Emily Grierson, who locks herself in a house after her father’s death. With time passing, she meets a foreman of the construction company, Homer Barron, to whom she finally opens up. However, threatened to leave her for another man, Emily Grierson buys arsenic, which the townspeople believe she will use to commit suicide. Nevertheless, Emily uses the arsenic to kill Homer Barron and then keeps his dead body in one of her locked rooms until she dies at the age of seventy-four. William Faulkner presents the story with an illustration of various senses. A visual image is one of the author’s senses in the story that helps readers to imagine a picture in their minds. The senses of touch and hearing are also extremely supportive in “A Rose for Emily” to understand and imagine the sequence of the story. William Faulkner, the author of “A Rose for Emily,” presents the story with a sense of sight so that it is easier for readers to visualize a picture in their minds. One of his images is the big house that Emily Grierson lived in. William Faulkner explains: It was a big, squarish frame house that had once been white, decorated with cupolas and spires and scrolled balconies in the heavily lightsome style of the seventies...

...Creating S.M.A.R.T. Goals Specific Measurable Attainable Realistic Timely Specific: A specific goal has a much greater chance of being accomplished than a general goal. To set a specific goal you must answer the six “W” questions: *Who: Who is involved? *What: What do I want to accomplish? *Where: Identify a location. *When: Establish a time frame. *Which: Identify requirements and constraints. *Why: Specific reasons, purpose or benefits of accomplishing the goal. EXAMPLE: A general goal would be, “Get in shape.” But a specific goal would say, “Join a health club and workout 3 days a week.” Measurable - Establish concrete criteria for measuring progress toward the attainment of each goal you set. When you measure your progress, you stay on track, reach your target dates, and experience the exhilaration of achievement that spurs you on to continued effort required to reach your goal. To determine if your goal is measurable, ask questions such as…… How much? How many? How will I know when it is accomplished? Attainable – When you identify goals that are most important to you, you begin to figure out ways you can make them come true. You develop the attitudes, abilities, skills, and financial capacity to reach them. You begin seeing previously overlooked opportunities to bring yourself closer to the achievement of your goals. You can attain most any goal you set when you plan your steps wisely and establish a time frame that allows...

...Aspects of Psychology American InterContinental University November 20, 2013 THE CONCEPT OF ADAPTATION 2 Process and Results of Each Experiment Experiment 1 with Sandpaper- After rubbing my index finger on the very coarse sandpaper a few times, I would rate the coarseness on a scale of 7 (very coarse). This experiment gave me a tingling feeling in my finger. After a minute or so from resting my index finger, I ran the same index finger on the sandpaper and found that it wasn’t as coarse as the first time. I would rate its coarseness at a 3 which led my finger to not react to the paper as much as the first time. So I feel that my senses adapted to the coarseness of the sandpaper. Experiment 2 with Sugar Water and Fresh Water- I took one cup and put two teaspoons of sugar in with fresh water and stirred it. In the second cup I only put fresh water in it. I then took the cup with sugar water in it and took a sip and swished it around in my mouth. I noticed that I could feel my taste buds were stimulating but after a few seconds they became less stimulated. When I had tasted the fresh water and swished it around, I noticed that I tasted a hint of salt. It surprised me because I wasn’t expecting to taste salt beings that I didn’t add any to the water. So I believe that the fresh water had more of an affect over the sugar water. Experiment 3 with Cold,...
