I feel as you can imagine go back in time feel every emotion as you read this quote.

The visual metaphor is quite intriguing. For some weird reason, it reminds me of La Jetée.

poetry and music have always been closely related. poetry can contain many different kind of rhythm at the same time to create a complex rhythmic.

Proteus Vulgaris Characteristics – Biofield Treatment Analysis Biofield energy treatment is an alternative therapy approach that is studied in this research to bring the positive alternations in the characteristics of Proteus Vulgaris.

Proteus Vulgaris - Hospital Acquired Infections Proteus Vulgaris is a gram-negative bacterium that is ranked third as the cause of hospital-acquired infections. The present study was undertaken to study the impact of an alternative energy treatment on properties of Proteus Vulgaris.

Study of Proteus Vulgaris Antimicrobials Susceptibility Proteus Vulgaris antimicrobials susceptibility analysis shows changes in minimum inhibitory concentration and susceptibility patterns as compared to control sample after biofield energy treatment.

Proteus Vulgaris - Impact of Human Energy Treatment Biochemical test results shows the impact of human energy treatment on phenotyping and genotyping characteristics of Proteus Vulgaris. Read here to know about this study.

This would be the optimal learning experience, for me.

Not just for Carrie Anne Philbin’s CS classroom. For so many approaches to learning, these principles help a lot.

control over society."

It's the people that push the boundaries who find out just how strong/weak they really are. It is more about the atmosphere of a disciplinary society aided by the people's fear that's being enacted throughout societies instead of actual and legitimate control.

The Declaration of Independence impacted the United States in more ways than one, Jefferson makes clear when he states "to prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world;" he is referring to the reign of the King of Great Britain who has brought injuries and tyranny over the states. He wants his people to realize the corruption and wrongdoings that the king has caused. Jefferson is essentially saying that people should be uncorrupt in this new world and man should strive to preserve the pureness of this country keeping it from falsehood and injustice. It sparked my attention when I came across a newspaper titled "The North Briton" written by J. Wilkes and others which contained very similar diction and ideals of society during that time period. Wilkes is criticizing King George III for his speech in favor of the Treaty of Paris ending the Seven Year’s War; he states “Articles 15 is for having corrupted the sacred fountain of truth and put falsehoods into the mouth of Majesty, in several speeches made in parliament.” Wilkes is trying to uncover the king’s corruption and bring to light that he is lying to his people which ties closely to Jefferson’s actions and morals of being uncorrupt. Most people carried similar beliefs in the United States during the 18th century, it is very possible that the Wilkes could have been from Jefferson's era carrying the same ideals and values as him due to similar style of writing, choice of diction, and beliefs.

It sparked my attention when I came across a monthly chronologer titled "The Gentleman's and London magazine" that contained very similar diction and ideals of society during that time period. It is noticed that humans are habitual creatures and mimic their peers within their society creating a universal diction within that community. Most people carried similar beliefs in the United States during the 18th century since most citizens were of Christian faith it is very possible that the writers of the "Gentleman's and London Magazine" could have been from Jefferson's era having the same ideals and values as him due to similar style of writing and choice of diction.

This might be the most explicit link to constructivism and constructionism. Not only is it about “learn by doing”, but it’s about concrete action in the physical world. Can’t help but find it limiting and restrictive to mention “3D Printing” as the main component. After all, FabLabs got started without 3D printers and the Maker movement has a lot of stuff which has little to do with 3D Printing. But it’s hard to argue that 3D Printing haven’t attracted attention, in the past couple of years. Sexier than laser etching? As Makers often point out, there’s a lot in the movement which is really very similar to what was happening in shop class. Though the trend may sound new, it’s partly based on nostalgia. A neat aspect, though, is that much of it can happen through learners’ projects cutting across class boundaries. Sure, we’ve known about project-based learning for a while. You do a project for a class or a series of classes. But how about a personal pathway (cf. “individualism”, above) through which learners add learning experiences around a central project? Learning Circles can make that into something really neat.
