...Web Communications Assignment 1: Exercise - Short Question & Answers In Brief: This assignment is worth 15% of your mark for this unit. Please refer to the calendar in your Unit Outline for the due date. Instructions: Please answer all of the following questions. Each answer should be a paragraph in length, and the maximum total word length for the assignment is 750 words. 1. What is the Internet? 2. What is the World Wide Web? 3. What is the relationship between the World Wide Web and the Internet? 4. What are three purported differences between the World Wide Web as it first emerged, and the more recent Web 2.0? 5. What is RSS and why is it significant to Web 2.0? The word length averages out to 150 words for each answer, which is sufficient to answer each question, but only if you write concisely. One of the challenges of short word-lengths is making sure you avoid any unnecessary material and get straight to your main points. Since the overall assignment is worth 15 marks, this means that each question is worth 3 marks. It follows that for each question there are (at least) three full and distinct points you should be making. Since there is probably a lot more than three points possible for each question, you need to select what you think are the three most important points. Being clear and concise is the key to doing well in this assignment. You must clearly indicate all references and sources for the material informing your answers using in-text citations...

...When I was first assigned to write a persuasive essay about the future in September, I wrote it about the different logic of people. Many can accept change that is heading towards them while many hesitate to approach it. Writing this essay was difficult because I didn’t have as much knowledge as I do now. As time went by, looking back at this essay, I believe I could’ve done a better job. As I improved on my persuasive essays, it began getting easier to develop ideas and set a theme to my writing. In the beginning it was harder to get all of my thoughts together and make my paragraphs flow. Now that I’ve mastered writing persuasive essays, my ideas flow together without taking too much time trying to fix the way my sentences formed. In the beginning of the first marking period, we were assigned to answer short constructed answers in the form of a paragraph essay. As difficult as it was in October, it is much easier now that I have many techniques I could use in writing. In the “The Autobiography” We explained the different perspectives the author, Benjamin, Franklin spoke in. It was a very complex assignment because we were limited to a paragraph. Trying to put down sentences to explain what my point was was very difficult because my sentences were not constructed properly. Throughout marking period two, I mastered writing short answers without going off topic and creating run on sentences. I learned how to place my sentences in the order which they make sense and most importantly...

...Principles of Macroeconomics 1 Semester Two 2012 Group Assignment The Mining Boom "The strong bit of Australia's two-speed economy won't stay strong for more than another two years or so" ... Deloitte Access's report into the Australian state of the economy. The Sydney Morning Herald BHP Billiton has shelved two expansion plans in Australia worth at least $US40 billion, and miners have cut their spending on exploration for the first time since the global financial crisis. When BHP scrapped its $20 billion expansion plans for Olympic Dam it blamed soaring development costs, a high Australian dollar and falling commodity prices. Resources Minister Martin Ferguson has since declared it the end of the resources boom. The Prime Mister, Julia Gillard and the Governor of the Reserve Bank, Glenn Stevens, believe this is to be an exaggeration however and argue there are a number of major investment projects still in the pipeline. You can find more information on the mining boom and its effect on the Australian economy from the Australian Broadcasting Commission’s news and current affairs programs by using the video links on MyUni. After viewing the videos answer the following questions based on the material in them. In your answers, marks are awarded for the analysis of the questions using the models and graphs you have studied this term. 1 a) Economists have argued that the mining boom has been a windfall for Australia but it was not sustainable.

...patience and not study all the material at once. College students have the tendency to procrastinate on studying. Tests are a fact of life for kids in school, including those with learning disabilities. “Tests help teachers gauge progress, measure skills, and determine grades. They can also be pointers to areas where kids need extra help. The good news is that there are some common sense approaches to studying and test taking that can reduce anxiety and improve test performance. You can help your child learn test-taking strategies she'll use throughout her entire education.”(Firchow, 2013) There are different types of test like multiple choice/objective, true/false, short essay, and essay test. “Multiple choice is a form of assessment in which respondents are asked to select the best possible answers out the choices from the list.”(Wikipedia, 2013) Preparing for a multiple choice test study days before the test, in class listen and write down notes that the instructor is giving about the multiple choice test.

...Ethics and Human Values Materials for This Course Available in the Bookstore J. S. Mill Utilitarianism (Hackett) Immanuel Kant Grounding for the Metaphysics of Morals (Hackett) Aristotle Nicomachean Ethics (Chicago) These are all relatively inexpensive paperbacks. So acquire them immediately. There will also be a few brief handouts. Course Description The subject of ethics is the pursuit of the good. For animals, the good is given in instinct; however, with the advent of reason we have the capacity of the human being to choose that which is not given by nature. This means that it is unclear that our immediate impulses guide us correctly; there must be a standard to be argued for, since the immediately given is not satisfactory. It is in ethical reality that the degree of difference of intelligence between man and the animals is perhaps equivalent to a difference in kind. Because of this, the human good, as opposed to the natural good, is inherently questionable. In this class, we will be looking at how it is that philosophers have concerned themselves with this question. We will look at 3 of major different ways in which the question the ultimate ethical principle has been understood; the utilitarian, the “deontological” and the “eudaimonistic”, by considering a few of the primary texts that deal with these. Requirements, Expectations, Grading You are expected to attend and attentively participate in every class period. The grade...
