All polynomial functions are continuous, while rational functions can be discontinuous at points where the denominator is zero. The document discusses the continuity and end behavior of polynomials, noting there are four possibilities for their end behavior: up on both ends, down on both ends, up on the right and down on the left, or up on the left and down on the right. It provides examples of polynomial functions that demonstrate each type of end behavior.Asking for and giving Directions

Two friends are seen running up a hill in a panic, looking behind them as if something is chasing them, with train sounds in the background. One boy wants to stop and rest, but the other insists they keep moving to the evacuation area before nightfall, not wanting to be anywhere else when it gets dark. As they run through the streets, the boys are shown emergency broadcasts and sirens going off. Eventually, one boy says he can't continue on and doesn't think they'll make the evacuation area in time, though the other tries to encourage them, having come so far. However, the first boy points out they need the metro to get to their destination but the trains aren't running, so they don'tAsking and giving directions and addresses
Asking and giving directions and addressesJorge Engelbeer
油
To ask for directions, one can say "Excuse me, how do I get to...", "Could you tell me what's the best way to...", or "Can you tell me where is...". When giving directions, one should say things like "Go straight on until...", "Turn left/right into...", "Go along...", "Cross...", "Take the bus/get on the bus...", or use landmarks like "It's on the left/right...", "near...", or "at the corner...". A map can help ask for and give addresses.Class rules and expectations 2014 2015

This document provides guidance on asking for and giving directions. It includes sample dialogues and key language for directions involving turns (left, right), landmarks, transportation (bus stops), and locations (in front of, near). Directions should use landmarks and a "go to, then" structure (e.g. go to Main St, then turn left). Clarification may be needed when asking or giving directions.grad powerpoint 2

This document discusses how technology and wireless internet use is influencing social interaction in urban public spaces. It explores how ubiquitous computing and wireless connectivity are shaping human behavior. Some key points discussed include how the majority of Wi-Fi users connect to communicate with others not physically present, how this can lead to less exposure to diverse opinions, and how certain art projects have tried to use technology to force communication between strangers in public. The document proposes exploring further the social and cultural implications of ubiquitous computing on cities and ways that urban computing could be leveraged to promote communication through sharing personal and public data.Thesis Studio / Protoype1

Social Development Theory was developed by Soviet psychologist Lev Vygotsky. He believed that social interaction and culture play a key role in cognitive development. Vygotsky focused on how language and interactions with more knowledgeable others in a child's zone of proximal development can aid learning. Some strategies that implement his ideas include scaffolding, reciprocal teaching, and guided instruction where students work together and share problem solving approaches. While it is not specific to any subject, Social Development Theory emphasizes how social and cultural experiences shape thinking skills and understanding through interactions between peers and more experienced individuals.7in7

The student summarized their major studio work over 4 weeks. In the first week, they mapped their identity and relationships. They explored self-discovery and how they connect with peers. In the second week, they designed 5 communications within constraints. They explored how people interact in cities. In the third week, they designed a musical controller from junk which challenged them with electronics. In the fourth week, they designed an electric car and strategies to conquer the industry, looking at diverse perspectives and customization possibilities. They reflected on learning collaboration, problem-solving, and critical design skills.Game Design Process

The document describes the design process of a final code project meant to have a fun and social content. The initial ideas involved creating emotional statements and interacting with them. The concept evolved to focus on the idea that everyone has a story and struggles with problems. An early prototype involved an interactive city map where individual problems were located. The design uses color coding to visualize people's problems, with red circles representing huge complications. Since the game involves mental activities and issues, the designer implemented brain cells that become more dense for large problems but dissolve and change color as they are solved. Scoring is visualized rather than numerical, with the player's circle of power and self-esteem growing bigger when helping others.Field Trip

During a field trip, the author took pictures of everyday life, rituals, and the simplicity of the outside world to gain a deeper understanding of meanings often taken for granted. The dynamism and feelings of hope experienced while surrounded by buildings inspired reflections on life as a journey with excitement and awareness of the outside world. The field trip experience reinforced the importance of looking, seeing, exploring, and expressing oneself to truly live.More Related Content

here is my process of building a documentaion site for bootcamp. still working on color palette and wireframes..Elevators of Parsons
- 1. Parsons elevators nightmare or what?
- 2. Problem OnePeople have no idea that there are two more elevators in the other corner.
- 3. They aim to go to left and as a result the elevator line gets longer and longer.
- 4. SuggestionInforming people about the other elevators.Maybe giving codes/names to the elevators and make an information table related to the elevators and their locations.
- 5. Problem TwoPeople go back and forth to elevators to see which line is shorter.
- 6. Everyone try to see each elevators line to pick the right one. So as a result we see people running between elevators.
- 7. SuggestionMaking a table giving feedback on the lines and comparing the lines.
- 8. Problem ThreePeople go back and forth to elevators to see which one is on the basement floor or close.
- 9. SuggestionMaking a table in the entrance showing all the elevators locations at that moment.Tagging elevators.
- 10. Problem FourSome elevators do not stop on some floors. People do not know that because they can not see that.
- 11. When the line is long, people at the back can not see whether it stops at those floors and when they get in the elevator and see it does not, they get mad.
- 12. Problem FivePeople try to press the button over others shoulders. (Painful and annoying)
- 13. Inside some people press the button themselves. When the elevators are already packed-up and painful, the pain gets bigger.
- 14. SuggestionMaking an interface on each side of the elevator.
- 15. Problem SixPeople call the elevators then dissappear. Elevators stop for no reason.
- 16. They press the button and then run like little kids and elevator stop for no reason so it is a waste of time and again people get mad.
- 17. SuggestionDetecting if there is someone waiting on that floor.If yes, stopIf no, continue
