      no

    2. __________________________________________________________________

      I am a returning student. I have an advantage of real-world value and work-study balance

    3. Are you attending college directly from high school or within a year of graduation?

      After high school, I did 2 years of vocational training for nursing, which I have completed

    1. __________________________________________________________________

      Going back to general studies after not taking those types of classes for almost three years

    2. ________________________________________________________

      I will need 6-8 courses per term in order to finish on time. I anticipate chemistry and advanced maths prerequisites will be hard to finish. I am confident I will pull through the difficulties of college.

    3. ________________________________________________________

      Around 4 per semester, but I am also planning on possibly speeding up the process by taking courses through the summer as well.

    1. Do you think we, as a society, have less value for FtF communication than we used to? Why or why not?

      Absolutely, there have been several times my friends or family will text each other while being in the same room!! Snapchat has also been used several times so you can see their expression while also texting. I believe the reason social anxiety is at an all time high, is because everyone can just hid between their phones to do just about anything!

    2. What are some ways that CMC reduces stress in your life? What are some ways that CMC increases stress in your life? Overall, do you think CMC adds to or reduces your stress more?

      Some ways it reduces stress- I can check up on family that live far away I can check the weather Some ways it causes stress- The societal pressure to stay up to date on "trends" or "apps"

    1. Socrates taught that truth was absolute and knowable and that a clear distinction should be made between dialectic, the question and answer method of obtaining the one correct answer, and rhetoric, which does not seem interested in the universal validity of the answer but only in its persuasiveness for the moment.

      Definition for Socrates

    1. going to school to obtain a degree does not count as the equivalent of working and thus does not make a parent eligible for TANF payments

      they are stopping parent from gettin a degree if they wanted to because they won't support people who are trying to go to school and get a degree. this goes back on why they are poor and may remain poor in the first place because their job isn't promised and they won't get as much education as needed/ believed to.

    1. dyneines and kinesins

      This is similar to what I know about DNA and how the DNA Polymerase moves from 5' to 3', similar to how motor proteins move from the + to - (or vice versa) end of microtubules. #lightbulb-moment

    1. Secondary active transport

      Is secondary active transport similar to diffusion since they both rely on gradients to facilitate their movement? #just-curious

    2. Passive transport

      I know passive transport typically only occurs with small and nonpolar molecules. Is this pattern the rule for transport within cells or are there important exceptions to remember?

    3. passive diffusion and facilitated diffusion.

      Both are using the idea of going from high to low concentration. However, passive diffusion can happen without the help of a protein while facilitated needs one.

    1. The key point is that Na2CrO4 (sodium chromate), Na2Cr2O7 (sodium dichromate), K2CrO4(potassium chromate), K2Cr2O7 (potassium dichromate), and CrO3 (chromium trioxide) are all alike in one crucial manner: when they are combined with aqueous acid, each of them forms H2CrO4, and ultimately it’s H2CrO4 which does the important chemistry. Unfortunately I rarely see this point explained in textbooks. I remember this causing some confusion for me when I took the course. The K or Na ions present are just spectators.

      this is a really good point explained about chromic acid

    1. A permutation i

      So if you are trying to find the permutations of a, b, and c, they would be abc, acb, bca, bac, cba, and cab. The combinations would be just abc because order does not matter. The combinations of choosing 2 elements out of a b and c would be ab, cb, and ac.

    1. The EBSCO Ebook Collection, Films on Demand, and other specialized databases, the district pays about $285,000/year. On top of this, each college is afforded a local budget to purchase additional books and resources that are housed locally at the campus. Cosumnes River College has received about $75,000/year to acquire these additional resources, though our budget was cut this year because of the COVID-19 crisis and the financial impact it has had across the state.

      I am glad they compared prices this really makes you see the bigger picture.

    2. There is a value placed on academic information (both monetary and societal value). And in academia especially, only a privileged few have access to certain types of scholarly writings.

      I think it's important that he stated this because i don't think as people we hear it enough it's defiantly something we know, but turn a blind eye to it.

    3. Students, even those in high school, enjoy information privileges that aren't afforded to the general public.

      This is very true. My High School provides all college books for free that most college attendees would have to purchase for an unrealistic price.

    4. And in academia especially, only a privileged few have access to certain types of scholarly writings.

      This seems to be an issue really everywhere, It's truly unfair.

    5. This is why librarians and your instructors are constantly asking you to take advantage of your academic privilege by using the library databases.

      I will always keep this in mind now. I'm glad my scool has the ability to provide this for me.

    6. When you learn more about how the system is working, it can make you very angry with the publishers.

      If we learned how every. system around us truly worked, I think we would all be more than upset.

    1. naked” gaseous ions are more stable the larger the associated R groups, probably because the larger R groups can stabilize the charge on the oxygen atom better than the smaller R groups. They do this by polarization of their bonding electrons, and the bigger the group, the more polarizable it is.

      Acidity of Alcohols in gas phase

    2. However, in the gas phase the order of acidity is reversed, and the equilibrium position for lies increasingly on the side of the alkoxide as R is changed from primary to secondary to tertiary, tert-butyl alcohol is therefore more acidic than ethanol in the gas phase.

      Acidity of alcohols in the gas phase.

    3. The order of acidity of various liquid alcohols generally is water > primary > secondary > tertiary ROH. By this we mean that the equilibrium position for the proton-transfer reaction lies more on the side of ROH as R is changed from primary to secondary to tertiary; therefore, tert-butyl alcohol is considered less acidic than ethanol

      Acidity of alcohols in water.

    1. Estudiante: Bueno, profesora, adiós. Profesora: Muy bien, hasta mañana.

      Student: Well, teacher, goodbye. Teacher: Very good, see you tomorrow.

    1. anabolism

      Anabolism is the biosynthetic buildup of cell material from simple inorganic or organic compounds, whereas catabolism supplies all the energy, and in many cases the building blocks or precursors, for these essential biosynthetic reactions.

    2. substrates

      In biology, a substrate can be the surface on which an organism (eg: plant, fungus, or animal) lives or the substance on which an enzyme can act. In geology, a substrate is a rock or sediment surface where chemical and biological processes occur.

    1. ________________________________________________________________________

      Every other sentence don't make sense. A. no matter who you is if you take it serious you can become as muscular as you want.... C. Some people don't see a good result in exercising... D. Some people are just not as inspired by exercising as others. So B was my best option.

    1. disjoint.

      In summary, the union of 2 sets (AUB) is the set of all outcomes in A or B or both, the intersection is the set of all outcomes in both A and B, and the empty set is the set with no outcomes. 2 events are disjoint if there intersection is the empty set.

    1. How to Perform Literary Analysis

      It’s much harder to write annotations for pieces of text like this when there’s no topic I’m supposed to be pulling information for, because everything written is practically factual

    2. what might subconscious slips indicate about meaning?

      If it’s a subconscious thought isn’t what we think only speculation or does it not matter if it’s accurate or speculative

    1. free speech,

      My question is; How can we balance the protection of free speech with the need for accountability in a world where media messages can quickly spread misinformation or harmful content?

    2. cultural values

      One thing I learned throughout this text was that cultural values significantly impact the way media is produced and consumed. These values influence how concepts like free speech, obscenity, and copyright are interpreted and enforced over time all over the media.

    3. Shifting ideas about what constitutes obscenity, a kind of speech that is not legally protected by the First Amendment, is a good example of how cultural values impact mass communication—and of how those values change over time

      How do the shifting definitions of obscenity and free speech challenge the effectiveness of current laws, especially in the digital era?

    4. Thanks to the First Amendment and subsequent statutes, the United States has some of the broadest protections on speech of any industrialized nation. We can see the value that American culture places on free speech.

      Yes, there is a lot placed on free speech in our country.

    1. Organic convergence is what happens when someone is watching television while chatting online and also listening to music—such multitasking seems like a natural outcome in a diverse media world.

      That kind of also seems like a headache.

    2. Today’s media consumers still read newspapers, listen to radio, watch television, and get immersed in movies. The difference is that it’s now possible to do all those things and do all those things through one device—be it a personal computer or a smartphone—and through the medium of the Internet

      Exactly. It doesn't just vanish, it becomes more broad.

    1. the story of the lost cell phone would be a great introduction for a text on understanding media and cultur

      People don't realize that a small event like losing a phone could blow up into so much more and be a global phenomenon due just one media post because media often amplifies and spreads stories more.

    1. One approach for detecting a proportional determinate error is to analyze a standard that contains a known amount of analyte in a matrix similar to our samples.

      Analyze a known standard to determine proportional systematic error.

    1. Media stories about violent crime also tend to be more common when the accused offender is black and the victim is white and when the offender is a juvenile. This type of coverage is thought to heighten the public’s prejudice toward African Americans and to contribute to negative views about teenagers.

      How does the media representation of juvenile crime novels affect community views on teenagers?

    2. During the late 1800s, medical authorities and other experts warned women not to go to college for two reasons: they feared that the stress of college would disrupt women’s menstrual cycles, and they thought that women would not do well on exams while they were menstruating.

      How did the medical theories in the late 1800s influences societal attitudes regarding women's education? And were there results.If there was, did women provide these medical theories wrong by succeeding in college?

    1. In the past, one goal of education was to provide students with the information deemed necessary to successfully engage with the world. Students memorized multiplication tables, state capitals, famous poems, and notable dates. In today’s world, however, vast amounts of information are available at the click of a mouse.

      In elementary school, it was all pencil and paper. The shift to Chromebooks happened in middle school

    2. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) estimated that children aged 2 to 11 saw, on average, 25,629 television commercials a year, or more than 10,700 minutes of ads.

      When I was younger, I loved watching toy commercials.

    1. Popular culture is the media, products, and attitudes considered to be part of the mainstream of a given culture and the everyday life of common people.

      Street name "Pop culture"

    2. In the 21st century, rabid fans could actually help decide the next pop stars through the reality television program American Idol. Derived from a British show, American Idol hit the airwaves in 2002 and became the only television program ever to earn the top spot in the Neilsen ratings for six seasons in a row, often averaging more than 30 million nightly viewers.

      I remember seeing American Idol and shows like it where fans vote for their favorites. Another example of this would be the show Love Island. The fans vote for the strongest and weakest couple determining who gets to stay on the island.

    1. Another useful aspect of media is its ability to act as a public forum for the discussion of important issues. In newspapers or other periodicals, letters to the editor allow readers to respond to journalists, or voice their opinions on the issues of the day.

      This is how people get their news. Even social media apps can have links to news articles, videos, and posts about what is going on in the world.

    2. Until Johannes Gutenberg’s 15th-century invention of the movable type printing press, books were painstakingly handwritten, and no two copies were exactly the same. The printing press made the mass production of print media possible. Not only was it much cheaper to produce written material, but new transportation technologies also made it easier for texts to reach a wide audience.

      I watched a movie one time. It was set in a time period before the printing press and the character who was writing a book had to use a typewriter. Towards the end, they found a piece of cloth and sewed it onto the spine to be the cover.

    3. In 2010, Americans could turn on their television and find 24-hour news channels, as well as music videos, nature documentaries, and reality shows about everything from hoarders to fashion models.

      That statement brings back some nostalgia. I remember turning on the tv and being able to watch all kinds of things through cable channels.

    1. Postmodernists even mistrusted the idea of originality—the supposed arrogance of thinking one had a “new thought”—and freely borrowed across cultures and genres.

      In a way, is that considered a sort of bias?

    2. Modernism refers to the artistic movement of late-19th and early-20th centuries that arose out of the widespread changes that swept the world during that period. Most notably, modernism questioned the limitations of “traditional” forms of art and culture. Modernist art was in part a reaction against the Enlightenment’s certainty of progress and rationality.

      I remember learning about "Modernism" back in high school history class and not having a good understanding of it. Now reading it, I am able to grasp the definition of it.

    3. Urbanization, mass literacy, and new forms of mass media contributed to a sense of mass culture that united people across regional, social, and cultural boundaries.

      It is really cool to read about how media and culture have improved over time.

    4. The early modern period began with Gutenberg’s invention of the movable type printing press in the late 15th century and ended in the late 18th century. Thanks to Gutenberg’s press, the European population of the early modern period saw rising literacy rates, which led to educational reform

      We also talked about the printing press and Gutenburg.

    5. For example, you may have had readings about the “Middle Ages,” a marker for European history from the 5th to 15th Century. In that era, technology and communication were in the hands of authorities like the king and church who could dictate what was “true.”

      I remember back in middle and high school when I learned out how people communicated in history.

    1. Mass communication refers to a message transmitted to a large audience; the means of transmission is known as mass media. Many different kinds of mass media exist and have existed for centuries.

      This is where two and two are put together.
