Elements of the Atom - What Are the Elements?

Elements of the Atom - What Are the Elements?In any discipline that deals with life and the materials that make it up, in particular chemistry, the element with the most attention has to be Oxygen. It is responsible for the many chemical reactions in the world today and has also been used as a kind of accelerator for various purposes.In this article we will discuss the elements of the atom and how each one of them produces an oxide form. To many people, the atom is the smallest piece of matter. Oxygen is the number one atom in that category. Each and every chemical reaction are based on the atoms and their interaction.With solid state chemistry, the atoms are smaller and so to speak, small becomes large. For example, carbon is the largest atom that can be found in the planet but if you think about the different types of carbon, you find that there are multiple forms of carbon, and each one of these forms is the equivalent of oxygen.Carbon is the element that is seen in all of the oth er atoms and forms of natural gas, such as methane, ethane, propane, butane, and methane. The carbon has several other varieties such as the carbons, dichloromethane, and cycloalkanes. However, when it comes to the oxygen, there are only two different types of atoms.Oxygen is actually found in two different forms. One is oxyl (OH) and the other is methane (CH3). Oxygen is actually produced in the atmosphere by the plants. The gases that produce methane in the process of photosynthesis are carbon dioxide and water vapor.There are other gas components that are found in the air that are chemically different from water vapor such as chlorine, bromine, chlorine dioxide, and chloroform. Chlorine has some chemicals that are like chlorine dioxide, which is found in the environment.There are many other elements that are different from the other elements and each of these forms are complex. Their names are not given for obvious reasons. But the general rule is that the main types of chemicals that are made out of the atoms are atomic chemicals.

Pick the one that suits your ambition best. (by maura24)Which Curriculum To Pick To Become A Professional Coach?It is all and well, but what are the required skills to practice as a professional coach?Not unlike the laws regulating private tuitions, there is no existing framework regulating the line of work of professional coaches. Almost everybody can practice this job and claim to be a p rofessional coach.However, a certain number of skills will obviously be expected by the clients.As a rule, coaches embellish their CVs with all the training programs they followed: coaching, systemic approach, transactional analysis, NLP training (neuro-linguistic programming), etc.It is fundamental to know the professional environment that you are targeting and the type of clients you will be addressing (the company, its environment. its work culture, its problems and issues), so it is necessary that your CV shows a relevant training in line with the services you will be offering.Some prestigious schools of great renown make it possible to train to become a professional coach.The British School of Coaching (BSC) are market leaders in offering Institute of Leadership and Management (ILM) accredited courses for coaches, mentors and trainers. They offer a range of personal development courses to suit every level of experience in coaching and mentoring.Whether you are an executive HR m anager, a self-employed adviser looking to certify your practice or simply a parent wondering how to best guide your child, they offer ILM accredited courses in coaching and mentoring to befit every stage in your careerWarwick University and its Lifelong Learning Center also offer a Career Development and Coaching Studies program.They draw on a wide range of expertise across their professional networks and the University to teach this programme. It is designed to help you provide creative and effective career support. The programme is informed by a range of international and national benchmarks and distinguished by a distinctive focus on the integration of theory and practical experience.In total in the UK, there are about 40 different Masters degrees you could get in order to qualify as a professional coach.It is also recommended that coaches receive regular training to specialize and/or update on current professional practices.The certification process can, therefore, be relativel y lengthy, even if there is not really a specific diploma or accreditation recognised by the government that would make you a certified professional coach.It is also recommended to choose a school that has been certified by a federation or association.And yes, even if you receive a degree from one of these Universities, you must nevertheless prove that you have followed a certain number of hours of training, to prove your experience as a coach and that you are competent to review and analyse professional practices and unique client cases.More than half of the professional coaches graduated from a business, management or engineering school. In addition, these service providers are specialists in human resource management and often work within a company's department.Professional coaches are usually graduates in social sciences, human sciences, psychology or neuroscience, have a master's degree or doctorate: profiles are very different.Find personal development courses here.Life coache s need to be very attentive to everything their clients confide in them as well as detecting what they do not say out loud.   (by Geralt)The Specific Skills Required To Be A Professional CoachIn addition to degrees and all the training necessary to become a professional coach, you also need to possess a certain number of coaching tools.According to the accreditation process of the ICF - the International Coach Federation - a number of skills are required or will need to be learned:Possessing ethics,Being able to establish trust relationships,Possessing a self-questioning thought process,Developing your self-awareness,Performing consistent tasks,Monitoring and evaluating signs of progress.It is also necessary to have a sufficient level of mental and emotional maturity to exercise this profession: it is easy to understand that an impulsive person or someone that gets overwhelmed by the emotions, lack assertiveness or fail to manage their stress, can not claim to teach how to handle di fficult situations.Often, professional coaches practice as self-employed consultants: besides practising the profession, they must also know how to find clients, manage their finance and tax reporting.In addition, a coach's skills depend heavily on his area of experience(small business, massive conglomerate, start-up, large group, NGO, or public administration) and their target audience (manager, executive, team management, individual).The job of coach implies a good level of self-awareness, in order to clearly identify the personality traits of their customers.Professional coaching aims to better integrate a person in a trade or a function. As such, it aims to find how to achieve that person's goals to increase performance.This requires putting coaching in an ethical framework, listening actively to the client and being empathetic to better understand them.A good coach must follow the way companies operate, i.e. understand the company's culture and strategies, understand the nature of the market concerned (competition, products, services, customers) and the structure of the market.Knowing leadership management (a process by which a person influences a group of people to achieve a common goal) is a guarantee of professionalism: this type of leadership is essential to create a business, develop interpersonal communication, collaborate with other coaches and develop entrepreneurial capabilities.Another key skill: mutual respect. It is important to know how to adapt your approach depending on the ethnic and cultural differences that may exist, that is to say never to judge your interlocutor or discriminate according to their ethnic or social origin.It is also necessary to know how to position yourself as an expert, to convert your prospects into clients, to mobilize commercial resources: in other words, to know how to sell yourself.What Is It Like To Be A Professional Coach?Faced with the multiple challenges of working life, it is sometimes difficult to take a st ep back and manage stress appropriately. This is one of the main roles of a professional coach: to support, guide, accompany and ensure the well-being of all the people they oversee.Beware, coaching professionally does not mean to be interested in the psychosociological causes that led to depressions or burnouts, but to place you and your client in the perspective of their career development.One might think that an executive coach and senior company executive have amazing perks and very comfortable incomes.This could not be further from the truth as you should know that most professional coaches practice on a part-time basis and often have another full-time job.Let's put it out there, there are very few professional coaches that can live entirely of their practice: the vast majority of them work as self-employed.In addition, it takes an average of at least three years of practice to establish a network of contacts and obtain a stable and regular clientele and the income that goes wi th it. This means that some put up to 5 years before being able to live off their professional coaching career.When it comes to earnings, your paycheck will only be as good as your skills and competence. Working on a per session basis, most coaches charge £120 and up for a one-to-one hour-long session or somewhere around £350 per day of work if hired by a company.Not unlike private tutors, the rate a professional can and will charge will depend on their experience, network and demand.

Who Are The Famous Female Painters

Who Are The Famous Female Painters Behind the Brush: Women Artists ChaptersArtemisia GentileschiMary CassattFrida KahloGeorgia O’KeeffeHelen FrankenthalerWhen one thinks of famous artworks, it is generally those from â€" or inspired by the Italian Renaissance that come to mind.To wit, two of the most famous paintings in the world, The Last Supper and the Mona Lisa, which were both painted by the same artist: Leonardo da Vinci.Going through the art movements: expressionism â€" The Scream, painted by Edvard Munch. Impressionism: that one has to go to Vincent van Gogh, even though Claude Monet ‘fathered’ the movement.Picasso and his cubism; Matisse, who brought on Fauvism. Dali, whose name is synonymous with surrealism... do you notice a trend, here?Where are all of the women???It is true that, save for the last 100 years or so, women have mostly been relegated to the sidelines where painting is concerned.In fact, until a little over 100 years ago, women were not allowed to attend art school. If they were admitted, they were barred from any life painting involving a nude male â€" the classic artistic exercise.Women were barred from all of the artists’ hangouts â€" the bistros and the pubs that their male counterparts frequented to discuss painting techniques and talk about upcoming exhibitions.In spite of these restrictions, there have been a few female artists who have made their mark on art history.We’ve chosen only five... five remarkable women, some who have struggled against all odds for their art.Superprof now presents women who pioneered new ways of expressing themselves on canvas, who made heritage central to their art and who wielded a brush long before anyone thought to officially ban women from painting.Thank goodness that never happened!

Naturally, Dad gave them all lessons in painting but, to his surprise, it was his daughter who far outshone her siblings.The Italian Renaissance era had passed; Italy was now wholly steeped into the Baroque era and Caravaggio-influenced paintings were all the rage. Artemisia was more than happy to oblige.Her trademark was biblical scenes, specifically those involving strong female protagonists. Some of her works depicting such scenes include:Judith Slaying HolofernesJudith and her MaidservantPenitent MagdaleneSusannah and the EldersCleopatraArtemisia was known as one of the few artists of the day who could paint a credible female figure â€" whether nude, draped or fully clothed, a talent she demonstrated more than once, including in her self-portrait.Furthermore, her command of colour, of light and of shadow makes Artemisia's work some of the most visually appealing of all the baroque painters.Mary CassattFast-forward about 250 years, to a small town outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to witness the arrival of one Mary, into a large, well-to-do family.Mary’s mother was instrumental in developing her artistic sensibilities; she believed that a good education entailed acquaintanceship with the arts, with travel and with exploring beyond one’s immediate surroundings.Had she not bustled her children to the major European capitals and seen to their education in art, ther e is a chance that Mary might have been thoroughly conventional: well-married, a mother in her own right...Mary never wanted to marry and she didn’t want children. She wanted to paint.Her mother may have been secretly delighted but her father was furious! He refused to support her in her folly; she nevertheless enrolled at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.She was barred from working with male models. She endured instruction that was far more patronising than what her male classmates were subjected to and, while there were other girls in her classes, they were not contemplating a career in art.Painting was considered a great social skill; often, girls were encouraged to develop any talent at art that they might have.But Mary wanted to be taken seriously. That’s why she set off for Paris, only to encounter the same discrimination. Luckily she formed close friendships with other impressionist painters, and with Edgar Degas.Mary’s attitude about life could be summed up as ‘paint or die’. For our next artist, the opposite might have been true. Frida cheerfully embraced her Mestizo heritage and reflected it in her work Image by Marta Matyjas from PixabayYou might say that Frida Kahlo was born into the art world the day of that fateful bus accident.Georgia O’KeeffeSmall in stature and unlikely to make waves: those eight words might suffice to describe this pioneering modernist painter but they do not indicate how determined she was to create art and the lengths she went to do so.Born in a farmhouse in Wisconsin, one may think that a girl who milks cows would be the least likely person to create stirring art â€" and that would have been true, except for the fact that her mother firmly believing in providing her children with a well-rounded education.So it came to be that Georgia and her two sisters would spend one afternoon per week with the local artist. By the time she was 10 years old, her feet were irrevocably set on the path of painting.She really didn’t care if she was destined for landscape painting, still life pai nting or forced to execute cave paintings!Georgia met her share of tragedy throughout her long career in painting and sculpture â€" when she could no longer see to paint, she took up that second means of artistic expression.Several times, her frail constitution betrayed her: first with typhoid fever and then with measles, later during the influenza pandemic of 1918. And then, a cruel betrayal by a faithless husband...All of these setbacks added depth to every depiction Georgia turned her hand to.  Her trademark flowers seemed to hold the secrets of the ages while her still lifes demanded that you investigate their hidden depths.Georgia created art because she felt there was nothing else she was meant to do.Even when she took up other work â€" teaching or, once, in Chicago, as a commercial artist, Georgia's hands would become stained by the nature of her work again and again. This early work of Georgia'earned her a spot at the Student League's summer camp Source: Wikipedia Credit Georgia O'KeeffeHelen FrankenthalerHelen is not renown for extraordinary suffering she might have endured; what puts her on the list of top American artists is her unusual painting technique.She was relatively young when she came face to face with a major work by another American artist named Jackson Pollock, whose ‘action painting’ involved laying a large canvas on the floor and assaulting it with slashes, splashes and drizzles of paint.She wanted to 'enter his world, learn its language and get to know the people' â€" that’s what she saw in his paintings titled Autumn Rhythm and Lavender Mist.The more she learned about his style of painting, the more it crystallized her philosophy of creating art:A really good picture looks as if it’s happened at once â€" Helen FrankenthalerEmulating Pollock, she too placed a large, unprimed canvas on her studio floor. However, before ap plying the first speck of paint, she experimented with paint and turpentine, trying to find the optimal ratio of thinner to colour.Once she found that perfect balance, she poured the mixture on the canvas, allowing it to soak into the fibres.Diluting the paint with the slightly oily turpentine gave a pleasing halo to the poured mixture; it also made the colour a bit more delicate and, because her canvases were unprimed â€" same as Pollock’s, the colour soaked in, in effect dyeing the fabric’s fibres.Helen named this painting technique ‘soak-stain’ and went on to try it on other media.Considering the contributions these remarkable women made to the history of art, it is a wonder that they are not more widely known or celebrated.It is rather sad to note that, except for Frida and perhaps Mary, these and other female painters’ accomplishments are really just so much background noise. An excellent way to illustrate that point is by invoking Elaine de Kooning.Of course, everyon e knows who Willem de Kooning is; he is the Dutch-American abstract expressionist painter.Less renowned is his wife, Elaine, a figurative expressionist painter of the post-WWII era. She had exhibited almost continuously since her first solo show in 1952 and, even though she died in 1989, her work is still being shown in select exhibitions.Visiting the Museum of Modern Art or the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, art connoisseurs may be surprised to find some of her canvasses hanging there...Which is a telling statement on the esteem for female artists, still today.

Getting Ready for Middle School and High School with ADHD

Getting Ready for Middle School and High School with ADHD 4 Key Areas to Prepare for Before Day 1 It may only be July, but back-to-school shopping commercials and sales are already under way! As you create the list of school supplies and backpacks that your family will need for the next school year, remember that teens with ADHD also need extra programs and support to succeed academically. By planning for extra support now, you will ensure that your teen has everything that he/she needs to succeed right from the start. I recommend having a plan in place that targets the three areas below. Involve your teen in the planning as much as possible, so youll both feel confident and prepared heading into the school year. To be effective in school, kids need to be organized. Where do books go? Where do you take notes? Where do you write down assignments that need to be completed? Where do you keep handouts and worksheets? And what should you do with notices from school? Teens with ADHD have weak executive functioning skills which makes it hard for them to stay organized. Start off the school year right by helping them create systems. Color-coded notebooks by subject, simple folder systems for storing worksheets and assignments, assigning places for everything from school supplies to school notices, and visual calendars. Goal Setting. One of my favorite tools that a high school English teacher used with his students was the Grade Contract. At the beginning of the semester, he asked each student to decide on the grade they wanted to achieve in the class, and then shared the work they would need to do to achieve to reach that grade. The Grade Contract helped each student set specific goals and promoted a keen understanding the milestones they would need to meet along the way. In a less formal sense, parents can have discussions with their kids about course goals the academic year. You can help your teen break down each goal into the necessary milestones, and provide them with the support they need to achieve their goals. Having a roadmap for your child makes the end goal less daunting and helps your child stay focused and on-task. Since kids with ADHD struggle to sustain motivation for long term goals, attach rewards and motivators to each milestone and check-in regularly. Time Management. Staying on task and completing an assignment means understanding how to manage the time at hand. Its helpful to coach your child through the steps of the first few assignments of the school year. Ask your child to articulate the assignment that needs to be completed, then write out the plan of attack together -- First this, then that, next this, and after that Have your child check-off each of the steps as he/she goes. After your teen announces he/she has completed the assignment, review the checklist. Praise hard work and effort! If he/she has missed a step, have him/her make corrections before turning in the assignment. Eventually, you can try pulling back on your support and have your teen create his/her own plan of attack. If it goes well, you can supervise from a distance. If your teen is still struggling, then dont hesitate to stay involved or get him/her extra time management support and skills training. If your child needs more support than what you can provide at home, learning centers like Huntington Learning Center offer great programs like the Advanced Study Skills Program that help kids improve their organization and executive functioning skills and give them practical tools and tips for improving their goal setting, time management, memorization and recall, and study guide use.

I have no GCSEs what can I do

I have no GCSEs what can I do Not getting the GCSE results you need for A-Levels and University can feel catastrophic even though are many reasons why you might not have done well. A weak revision plan, lack of subject knowledge and even bad exam techniques can all be to blame. Whatever the reason, don't let it stop you from trying again. The good news is there are many ways to secure a place at university beyond gaining traditional GCSEs grades, which means your learning is far from over. BTECs A BTEC, or 'Business and Technology Education Council' is a practical-based, vocational qualification that can be studied at schools and colleges. These allow you to gain hands-on experience in a field or subject and are an alternative to the more academic GCSEs and A-Levels. And can be studied at GCSE and A-level too. Though you will need at least five GCSEs to get on to a level 3 BTEC course, so you need to do Level 1 and 2 if you have no GCSEs. BTEC Level 1 and 2 = equivalent to a GCSE BTEC Level 3 = equivalent to an A-level There are 2,000 qualifications across 16 sectors, meaning you can study everything from animation to computing or engineering. These are then assessed via regular coursework and projects throughout the course with the benefit that you gain the practical experience. After Level 3, you can progress to university and apply for access to a degree in the first year. Re-Takes If you're unhappy with your current results, or you need a specific grade as a minimum requirement for further education, you may want to consider a retake. There are so many reasons why you may have low grades, and this is where a tutor can help you. Not only will they sound out your content knowledge but also look at your tactics around revision and taking exams. If it's poor exam and revision technique, this is the easiest to fix, while content knowledge will take longer, but it can be done. For tutors in all subjects and maths, English and Science we can help. If you've recently taken your exams, always approach your college or university first, to find out whether you can put in for a re-sit right away. If it's been a little longer, or you need to refresh your knowledge on the subject, there are a number of courses at local colleges. If you're looking to start from scratch, it can take between 12 months and 24 months to earn your GCSEs. Become an apprentice Apprenticeships are ideal if you have a clear idea of the career you'd like, and you're willing to commit to work and study. To be considered for an apprenticeship programme in England?, you need to be: aged 16 or over living in England , not in full-time education Intermediate apprenticeships are Level 2 and generally considered to be the same level as five GCSE passes. They are a great way to take the first step for those aged 16 as they offer an alternative to staying at school. What's more, after taking the intermediate level, can go on to complete advanced and higher apprenticeships and go to university.

The Case for Private Tutoring

The Case for Private Tutoring Today state-run schools are ubiquitous. Almost everyone accepts their validity and some people protest in Washington against budget cuts in the educational departments. This situation is the result of the contemporary consensus that public schools are the best and only way to educate our children. But is this really so? Cost of Schooling People think of public schools as free and private schools as expensive. But contrary of this intuition private schooling is much cheaper once you consider the source of funding (tax dollars vs. market tuition or donation). In fact, the public schools cost as much as the most expensive and elite private schools in the country. The difference is that the cost of public schooling is spread out over the entire population, whereas the private school cost is borne only by the families with students who attend them. Conformity Classes are grouped by the age of our students. The material is typically thought to a diminished degree to conform to the slow learner. For example, algebra is thought to the same extend to students who are more gifted in the social or verbal areas. Perhaps it would be beneficial for our learners to set up classes consisting of students of different age, or schools which entirely focus on a specific subject such as math and the sciences. Some parents might like schools of single sex; others want their children to be thought in a religious environment. Only private schools coupled with private tutoring seem to be able to satisfy such diversity. Compulsory Education Public schools are in a way temporary prison. Federal law forces your children to attend school (unless your state allows for homeschooling). Given the pressures children are exposed in many schools today they dread the thought of attending school. Challenged students are better off to stay at home with their parents or be taught by tutors at their own pace. The free alternative â€" private schools, homeschooling and tutoring is more humane and fosters creativity, reason and personal initiative towards learning. The key issue in the entire discussion is simply this: shall the parent or your government be the overseer of the child? We think the parent should be the primary education-giver as parental instruction coupled with private tutoring constitutes to the ideal arrangement. It is, first of all, individualized instruction, the tutor dealing directly with the unique child, and addressing himself to his capabilities and interests. Second, what people can know the aptitudes and personality of the child better than his own parents? The parents daily familiarity with, and love for, their children, renders them uniquely qualified to give the child the formal instruction necessary. Here the child receives individual attention for his own personality. No one is as qualified as the parent to know how much or at what pace he should teach the child, what the childs requirements are for freedom or guidance, etc. Almost all parents are qualified to teach their children, particularly in the elementary subjects. Whenever they are not qualified in the subjects they can hire individual tutors for their children. Tutors should be hired when the parents do not have the time to devote to the formal instruction of their children. Whether or not they themselves should do the teaching, or which tutor is the best for their child, is best determined under the overall supervision of the parents directly. The parents can determine the progress of the child, the daily effect of the tutor on the child, etc. The only reason for schools instead of individual instruction is the economic one: that the price of individual tutoring is prohibitive for most parents. Consequently, they must adopt the only practical alternative of mass tutoring, where the teacher instructs many children at the same time. It is clear that such private schools are an inferior solution to individual instruction. Whichever pace the teacher sets, an injustice is done to many of the children. Since the U.S. government enforces certain standards on the private schools, a crime against the children is committed. For if the parents selection of instruction were completely free and unhampered by law-maker coercion, they, knowing and loving the child best, will be able to select the best type of instruction that they can afford. If they hire tutors, they will choose the most competent for their child. If they can select any type of private school, they will select that type which is best suited for their child. The advantag e of unlimited development of private schools and private tutoring is that there will tend to be developed on the free market a different type of school and teaching style for each type of demand. In summary, private tutoring and schooling is not only the less costly alternative to state-run schools but it also provides a non-compulsory and personalized education to best develop our children’s unique talents.

Today, analog chemistry is mainly used by laboratory technicians, pharmacists, doctors, and dietitians. It's basically a system where different chemicals have different potency are mixed together. This means that the solution cannot be broken down or neutralized in the presence of a water source like water, soda, or milk.Analog chemistry uses ingredients that are taken from natural sources such as vegetables, fruits, oils, nuts, spices, and herbs. Different amounts of an ingredient are mixed into diffe rent concentrations, with the result that a mixture will have different chemical reactions, each one of which is essential to the work done.Analog chemists will perform research to find the most effective ingredients, usually by simply making things up. Analog chemistry can be learned from books, the internet, or from visiting seminars. It can also be learned through using simple analogs for example cocoa powder, baking soda, or saltpeter. Analog chemists will often use these ingredients to create their own analogs which they will then analyze.In analog chemistry, almost anything can be used to make analogs. To help the readers of this article to learn more about analog chemistry, some examples are available. Each of these examples is based on something which is common among organic chemistry, which makes it easy for the people to understand what is being written.The most common analog that is used for cooking is banana, because it is well known and used in many dishes. Generally, b ananas should be cooked in hot oil. Sometimes, cooking bananas with cinnamon will produce a new kind of candy which is called 'banana peel'.

An Algebra 1 Tutor Review

An Algebra 1 Tutor ReviewIf you need to brush up on your math skills, you might consider a tutor for algebra. I have had many friends who have struggled with math and algebra. It seems that everyone goes to college to become a doctor or a lawyer.I have realized that many people go to college for math skills. Students go to college to learn how to manage their time and get ahead in the workplace. It seems that they are not challenged enough to know what they should be learning.However, I have noticed that most people do not have a realistic goal of learning and improving their math skills. People think they can read the first four numbers and multiply the product with a calculator and that is it. Unfortunately, this is not true.I offer a course review of an algebra class to help improve a student's math skills. The key to getting a higher grade in math is to know how to read, understand and solve the problem. Algebra is a very difficult subject to learn, but it can be learned.Algebra is not only complex, but it can be confusing to the new student.
