A LETTER TO THE WORLD: MOTHERHOOD CHOSE ME AND I EMBRACED IT DESPITE BEING SINGLE While digitalization has taken over most parts of the world, some countries still uphold their cultures, beliefs, and practices. Growing up in an African country, I knew that you reserve your virginity for your husband at a young age. And as much as urbanization has tried to stand against that, you will expect some backbiting, insinuations of being marriage breaker, very uncalled for titles, as a single mum. It takes strength to walk with your shoulder’s high as a single mother in my country. I remember growing up and fearing to lose my virginity to a mere boyfriend. I was a party girl, I ran around looking for adventure, but anything beyond that was reserved. However, after high school, I joined some traveling theater, and that was the first time I was facing the real world out of my parents’ watchful eye. The first few months were easy until I fell in love for the first time. You all know how that feels. It’s like…

Regionalism is an essential component of globalization. Regionalism has gradually increased the cultural identity and rise of the regionalist parties. Also, regionalism has brought about an incomparable amount of stability and regulation globally. Research has shown that the evolved new regionalism forms a massive part in structural transformation in which non-state actors are active and operating different levels of the global system.

Augmented reality and how it works Augmented reality (AR) adds content into a camera feed and make the digital content look like it is part of the physical world around us. This digital content could be anything from overlaying the environment around you to making someone look like a tiger. AR can make you visually see how furniture would look like in your house, or play a board game on a table. For AR to alter your physical environment, the system must first understand the physical world from the camera feed. How does augmented reality work? The first step in AR is distinguishing the content of the camera feed from the world around the user. This allows the system to show the digital content that is relevant to what the user wants. This content is then displayed realistically to look like part of the real world. The module augments the environment to ensure it precisely overlaps with your physical environment. Why does augmented reality need computer vision? While the human brain understands images easily, it’s very difficult for computers to…

The role of schools in combating eating disorder Schools hold a significant role in management and prevention of eating disorder in schools through transmission of culture, the shaping of peer interactions, and the development of knowledge about the body and the self. The first step schools take to prevent eating disorder is by changing behavior of students, entire staff and the school stakeholders that influences body language, self- esteem, eating habit and skill coping. At this level the schools eliminate or reduce sociocultural factors that results to students engaging in behaviors that exposes them to eating disorder such as anorexia nervosa and bulimia. The second level, called secondary prevention, the schools identifies, accurately refer and prompt treatment and care for individuals showing symptoms of anorexia nervosa or bulimia at early stage to avoid severe and chronic eating disorder conditions. At the tertiary prevention level, the individual is exposed to severe eating disorder conditions and effective treatment is done and care is given to the patient to prevent further complications.

Monistic and Pluralistic Worldview and its Influence on Teaching Practice Introduction Most people in America do not even realize their worldview, with some holding pluralistic/dualist or monistic views. Each of these views creates different perspectives on individuals on the teaching and learning process. Monism refers to the idea that everything could be summed up to a single reality; dualism refers to the notion that all things could be reduced to two concepts/facts, while pluralism means that there are multiple substances, ideas, and concepts. Therefore, this report will provide a brief overview of the three worldviews, their fundamental components, the contrast existing between then, and a synopsis on how holding either of the worldview influences personal teaching practice.

She tried to eliminate the concept of body and mind and introduce phenomena that explain everything according to one unifying principle. According to David Cornell, “monism is the view that…

Name Tutor Course Date Computer Science Semiconductor memory two stable states, which are represented by the binary 0 and1. They can get written into a single state and allow for the reading and sense of the state. DRAM is used for the main memory as it is fast and can be accessed easily. On the other hand, SRAM is used for cache memory since it is volatile, and data is easily lost in a power outage. SRAM is more expensive than DRAM due to the use of flipflops. DRAM is considered analog as it only uses transistors and capacitors, whereas SRAM is a digital RAM due to its use of flipflops. EPROM stands for erasable programmable memory. It is a read-only kind of memory that can be erased by ultraviolet rays allowing for it to be rewritten. EEPROM can be erased using an electrical charge but can be written without having to erase previous content. This is achieved by addressing specific bytes only. Flash memory is erasable by electric charge but does not allow for adjusting at the byte level.…

The talk The talk modifies my understanding of the cultural borders, by depicting how politics through demagogues can trigger the urge to cross borders, by stimulating emotional bitterness among individuals belonging to a particular culture. The bitterness initiates reduced supports to one’s culture by criticizing some of the cultural aspects. Therefore, when one loses interest and support of the cultural aspects, there is an urge to seek for an alternative to the other culture that seems to be dominant or to possess more positive aspects as viewed from the demagogues perspective. The ideologies different causes fear of complexity and expression, which make people cross-culture borders to the culture where the aspect they are hiding from the public is accepted. I have little understanding of the emotional factors and how they affect cultural boundaries. But from the talk, emotional intelligence is crucial to maintain culture meaning and identity. The approach modified the understanding as I thought only the internal culture factors, including its elements, can trigger crossing culture borders. The biggest take away from the talk is how the speaker felt…
