The document discusses teaching Excel skills to students. It argues that Excel is a useful and important skill for any career or field of study. It notes that while typing was an important skill in the past, working with data and spreadsheets is becoming just as important today. The document outlines how the proposed Excel course would focus on practical mechanics to allow quick learning, using relevant examples like college admissions data. The course aims to develop both logical "left-brained" proficiencies as well as creative "right-brained" skills through visual presentation of data in Excel.

Oral approach wilson lopezWilson Lopez

��

Situational language teaching is an approach developed in the 1930s that focuses on teaching practical language skills through structured lessons centered around speech situations. The approach is based on behaviorist learning theory that emphasizes habit formation and avoiding mistakes. Lessons follow a controlled practice procedure moving from oral presentation and drilling of new grammar structures to their use in reading and writing. The teacher acts as a model for students who listen, repeat, and respond, while lessons are tightly organized around different grammatical structures presented through dialogues and visual aids.

Role of computers in Engineering EducationRamesh Babu

��

The document discusses the role of computers in engineering education. It notes that computers are now integral to daily life and education. For educators, computers can free up time, enable communication, and improve lessons. For students, regular computer use improves performance, and computers allow research and project development. However, overreliance on computers risks lack of imagination, isolation, and poor communication skills. While computers are useful educational tools, hands-on experimentation and human interaction are still needed to develop critical thinking skills. The recommendations are to use computers for their best purposes but still provide opportunities for higher-level thinking and face-to-face interaction.

Multi modal think board detailscoburgmaths

��

This document discusses using a multi-modal think board approach to teach mathematics. It involves using concrete manipulatives, diagrams, illustrations, pictures, charts and graphs to develop students' mental models and understanding of abstract mathematical concepts. Students learn by doing physical activities, making demonstrations, and using manipulatives like paper, cubes and tiles. Diagrams vary in abstraction from literal pictures to representations using dots. They convey ideas vividly. The multi-modal think board can be used for lesson planning, assessment, integrating technology, and reflecting on student and teacher learning.

The intersection of AI and pharmaceutical formulation science highlights significant blind spots—systemic gaps in pharmaceutical development, regulatory oversight, quality assurance, and the ethical use of AI—that could jeopardize patient safety and undermine public trust. To move forward effectively, we must address these normalized blind spots, which may arise from outdated assumptions, errors, gaps in previous knowledge, and biases in language or regulatory inertia. This is essential to ensure that AI and formulation science are developed as tools for patient-centered and ethical healthcare.
