...Question 9 Explanation: Ad delivery determines how often your ads show throughout the day. After you set your campaign's budget, you have the option to choose one of two ad delivery methods: 1) Standard Delivery (default option) distributes your budget throughout the day to avoid reaching your budget early on. This option is recommended if you want to reach your audience evenly throughout the day, rather than just in the morning. 2) Accelerated Delivery displays your ads more quickly until you run out of budget. So, if your campaign is limited by budget, your ad might stop running earlier in the day. Question 12 Explanation: A client manager will be billed for these accounts via manager order-level monthly invoice Question 15 Explanation: Effective video ads educate and entertain, and also inspire the viewer to act. If your campaign's goal is not just about branding, make sure you communicate to your customers what you'd like them to do, such as visit your store or site, call a phone number, or complete a purchase. Letting people know that they can learn more by clicking "play" usually increases play rates and video interaction rates. * Entice customers to click "play" using rich, sharp colors. * Include a few words to describe your product, service, and/or business. * Boost your play rate with a call-to-action that lets customers know they can play the video to learn more. * Create multiple video ads with different opening image sizes to increase...

...graduate from high school are products of a very test-centered and narrowed curriculum based upon answering a multiple choice question accurately. Recent high school graduates are unable to compete in the post-secondary education realm due to their inability to think creatively and critically compared to their classmates from around the world. At the non-profit I volunteer at, the walls are lined with quotes by famous artists that students can identify with such as Jay-Z and Alicia Keys, these are people who have been subjected to arts education and they are now making millions of dollars of off art. Arts education can refer to either being educated in the arts or using art as a way to teach general education. Drama, music, visual art, and dance are the most general types of art that are integrated into schools. In the President’s committee on the Arts he states the importance of integrating arts into general subjects “Reading, math, and writing require students to understand and use symbols and so does assembling shapes and colors in a portrait or using musical notes to learn fractions. Experiences in the arts are valuable on their own, but they also enliven learning of other subjects, making them indispensable for a complete education in the 21st Century,” (United States 20). The study of these mediums and practices helps students to explore and learn...

...What Einstein Told his Cook. I was looking for something that would entertain me and perhaps educate me as to the actual scientific processes to cook. Actual explanations that go beyond the simple answers of what works well together or not just learning that oil and water can emulsify by using eggs but why on the molecular level that these things happen. I was pleasantly surprised by the method and technique employed by the author in teaching me a multitude of culinary answers to simple everyday questions people have from “Why are champagne corks shaped the way they are” or “why are sweet onions sweet” to even the mundane “why do beans give us gas?”. In the second installment of his Einstein books the main premise is too answer these questions and many more with technical and scientific fact to demystify these culinary quandaries while also employing humor to make what can be a pretty dry subject more palatable. The author wants us to grasp the subjects in question during the various chapters which revolve around answering questions regarding vegetables or desserts to the best kitchen cleaning products by giving practical reasons for why chefs do things the way they do from taste results to financial benefit and recipes that allow us to actually do the methods explained and experiment for ourselves so we can see with our eyes and touch and not just read it on the pages. This allowed me personally to learn a few culinary secrets that frankly I never knew I was even curious...

For a iPhone there are many more pros, its very portable, it can entertain you in many ways, it can be used to contact others. and iPhones can do books jobs even better because the pages cant get damaged meaning as long as your phone is in good condition its better than a book. Books are also only good for a smaller group of people compared to technology because a I said before there are different types of interest for different people. Only the people who like to read and right would really enjoy books, however people who prefer a hands on approach, prefer visual and read and wright would use technology because its interactive and more interesting for them. Why is it important for learning to be interactive? learning needs to be interactive in order for learning to be most efficient. When things are interactive it makes us think more about something, it also stops us from getting sidetracked and learning very little. Interactive learning improve critical thinking skills and make student answer more questions. This improves there learning because they don't just memorise but also learn new skills like being a risk taker and communicator. Also when they answer questions they don't just give an answer but also explain it this means they get more knowledge on the topic because they are interactive. Why...

What do you think is the level of performance of the sales force each person heads? How do you think each of them will benefit from the sales force each person heads? How do you think each of them will benefit from the sales mananagement training seminar? Jerry Kline is a kind of sales manager who aims to sell products and make sales quotas. He believes that developing long-term customer relationships and internal company support distract sales people. Thus, his sales force is not effective to make sales.

...Cronje´, 2009). They also “investigated how student collaborative behavior and integration into the community related to success” (Nagela, Blignautb & Cronje´, 2009). The dropout rates for online courses can be as high as 50 percent, which is higher for equivalent traditional courses (Nagela, Blignautb, & Cronje´, 2009). Several aspects affect a read only participant. If the facilitator doesn’t entertain certain students as they learn and they do not feel instant gratification from participating actively in online discussions and then those students will simply stop participating and therefore will not benefit from peer-to-peer learning. Some lurkers may lack confidence to participate, may be introverted, or be a novice student and not understand the material or assignment (Nagela, Blignautb, & Cronje´, 2009). Some read only participants may care about themselves alone and are satisfied that their own learning needs are being met. Lastly, some may not be convinced that the course will benefit them and will not put the time or effort into the course work. The question is are these non-participants still legitimately learning and that conclusion wavered depending on the researcher. A major component in teaching elementary children is also a major component for college facilitators to teach college level students; and that is critical thinking, effective communication, and problem-solving skills (Nagela, Blignautb, & Cronje´, 2009).

...1795, Friedrich August Wolf came up with a contradictory idea, debating Homer's existence bringing forth the great Homeric question regarding him being the real author of the epics. Whether he completed the tales single handedly or not, his the Iliad and the Odyssey provided a gateway to poetry and to fiction pieces. Another writer who made a great difference in literature was Aesop. He gathered stories from oral fables containing many well known themes were acknowledged today like honesty is the best policy. Aesop’s collections were some of the first texts to be written the English language used today. Following the Archaic period was the classical period, when plays truly began to flourish. Comedy and drama were introduced not only to entertain, but to spread knowledge to the audience. Sophocles, playwright in the 400s, as far as we know wrote 123 plays over his life span, with only seven remaining today. His most exceptional play was Oedipus the King, a three party tragedy about Oedipus, a king in Greek mythology. The play is filled with plot twist as Oedipus searches for a murder and learns about his past; multiple movies today are constructed with the same basic plot Sophocles first around 420 B.C. Sophcolex managed to create dozens of more plays grasping the attentions of the audiences then and now as similar things continue to entertain us. Finally, the Greek’s astounding discoveries and enlightened thinking about philosophy continues to remain relevant today...

...Discuss the role and importance of educational research. (100) Marks An evaluation of research in education, with the general aim of systematically, improving an academic body of knowledge may deficits in systems be highlighted by well-designed research. The results of research can lead (ideally) to changes in methods or practices (in the case of education it might be a teaching methods, say online Vs in class on campus). This would ideally appropriate education is provided to the students resulting in a more effective/efficient population. This paper explores different senses of the concept of meaning in educational research, presenting ‘meaning’ as personal (the researcher’s quest for meaning through research), contextual (meaning in relation to linguistics and culture) and shared (through communication), offering the various types, challenges, benefits and forms of research in practice-based research in educational technology. Conducting research in an educational setting should be an important aspect of every educator`s professional life. Best and Khan (1993) p27 describe research as “the systematic and objective analysis and recording of controlled observations that may lead to the development of generalisations, principles of theories, resulting in prediction and possibly ultimate control of events. Education in a research setting is done to improve school practices and at the same time to improve those individuals who strive to improve those practices. Best and Khan...

...his stories. In Fahrenheit 451, we learn more indirect information about the protagonist, Guy Montag, through the words used to introduce this character. We have a clear view of Montag’s thoughts and feelings that lead him into his own transformation. When the novel begins, we learn that Montag’s values are similar to that of the society he lives in. The culture in which Montag is accustomed to is one without cogitation or analysis. Their society believes that books cause pain and should not exist. Everyone in this society believes they live in a carefree, painless world beyond having burdens. In the first sentence of the novel, Montag shows how much he loves his work as a fireman: “It was a special pleasure to see things eaten, to see things blackened and changed” (Bradbury 1). The job of a fireman in this society is to set fires, not to eradicate them. Houses that are revealed to contain books, by those who set off the alarms, are destroyed by firemen. Montag enjoys watching books wither and disintegrate in front of his eyes, but never thinks why he does it. His ideas begin to change when he walks home one evening and runs into a young woman named Clarisse McClellan, who lives on the same street as Montag. She initiates a conversation with Montag that makes him feel uncomfortable. All of Clarisse’s observations and thoughts finally oblige Montag to respond, “You think too many things”. Montag is unfamiliar to thinking and asking questions. He is accustom to following everyone...
