As so often happens during the early part of the school year, you receive a new student. Elisha comes into your room clinging to her mother’s hand. You greet her and talk quietly for a few moments while your students are working independently, but inside you’re thinking, “Oh, great. I just got to a place where my procedures are running pretty smoothly, and now I need to get Elisha up to speed with regard to what I expect.” Which would be the most effective way to do this?

What materials and/or information should you include in a binder for substitute teachers who will take over your class when you’re absent?

You are required to draw on paper the response to this question. Once you have completed the drawing, enter your name in the answer space below to confirm you have completed the necessary work for this question.   Don’t forget to put your name on your paper and turn it in! Define the gas pump pictured as a system.  You DO NOT have to list behaviors or decompose system structure.  You should be able to identify, at least, a combined total of 15 inputs and outputs.  List at least 10 interfaces  List the three methods of determining related systems Identify and list at least 10 related systems   

What are the 4 goals of the System Engineer and the System Engineering Team?

Mr. Washington allows his lesson times to go with the flow; that is, he simply begins teaching in the morning and lets each lesson last as long as it needs to last. He also varies the order of his content presentations, doing math first on some days and reading first on other days. He may allocate an hour to science on Monday, not teach it at all on Tuesday, and give it half an hour on Wednesday. How would you evaluate his system?

During the first week of classes, what sort of lessons should teachers plan?

In an independent t-test, we calculate a mean difference between the groups (group 1 –  group 2) and we use this to test against the null.  If the mean difference and 95% confidence intervals are 4.1 (95% CI -2.5 to 10.0), would you reject the null hypothesis?

Before you determine the p-value of an independent t test you should first determine if the variances are equal.  You have a greater chance of rejecting the null if the variances are treated as equal.
