FUN FACTS and EXTRA INFO
Content: After the colony was kind of started, more people started heading over. This is the main reason why the Massachusetts Bay Colony was so successful. Economy in the Massachusetts Bay Colony
In the Massachusetts Bay Colony, many jobs were offered to different people. Depending on what "class" you were in, you would have certain abilities and disabilities. Some jobs for anyone would be blacksmiths, coopers, shoemakers, weaving wool, manual workers, servants, apprentices, and sailors. There were many more jobs, those are only a few of them. People who were in the lower classes were indentured servants. This meant that someone would work for someone else for a certain amount of time. After being an indentured servant, you could become an apprentice or an owner of a shop/business. There were very few slaves in the low class.

FUN FACTS and EXTRA INFO
Content: The middle class was able to vote, (lower class people could not) and very few people could work in the government and be in charge. Others were skilled tradesmen or had certain jobs and professions. People in the highest "class" were able to own land and plantations. People in this colony could harvest and take corn, beans, squash, rye, sheep, cattle, and timber. Since there was such poor soil, they weren't able to harvest other plants such as tobacco. The Massachusetts Bay Colony would also trade everything they harvested: rye, corn, squash, beans, etc. They also trade fur with others. They traded with different parts of Europe and other colonies. Founding the Massachusetts Bay Colony
John Winthrop founded Massachusetts in 1630.

John Winthrop founded Massachusetts in 1630. He founded Massachusetts because the Puritans wanted religious freedom from England. They thought that the way they lived was the best way. It was settled by a group of 1000. Those 1000 people needed to make the village by their self. They need to have a lot of experience.

Can media system dependency account for social media? Or should communication infrastructure theory take care of it?
Media System Dependency Theory Core principles
Sorin Adam Matei
Content: Here, Internet connectedness is associated with civic participation and indirectly contributes to “belonging” to a residential community. However, in predominantly Asian and Latino areas, the Internet is disengaged from communication environments that lead to belonging, being associated with mainstream media. In these communities its contribution is contradictory; although it probably contributes to the process of ethnic assimilation, it might also lead to disengagement of most educated and technologically savvy residents from their neighborhoods. A possible “magnifying glass effect” is proposed as explanation for the differential integration of new media in community life. ← The social impact of social media: creator or destroyer of social capital? Does agenda setting theory still apply to social media? →

Content: One or more ankle-length, waist-fastened petticoats were worn. The dress, or gown, consisted of two parts, a bodice and a skirt. Sometimes the sleeves were a separate part as well, being tied to the bodice. The bodice or the skirt could be the same or different colors, and were often made of wool. The bodice buttoned all the way down the front. The skirt was ankle-length and gathered at the waist. A long-sleeve fitted waistcoat was often worn over the top, and an apron was worn if the woman was doing any kind of work. Women occasionally wore lace collar and cuffs, and a cloak. Women's hair was always worn pulled tightly back, and gathered under a coif or hat. Men's clothing
For the upper body, men usually wore a long, short-sleeved, off-white linen shirt, with collar.

C. Pedagogical values
D. Competence, proficiency, and performance
Assignment 1:
Content: They are interventionist. Someone pre-selects and predigests the L2 to be taught, dividing it up into small pieces, and determining learning objectives in advance of any consideration of who the learners may be or of how L2s are learned. This type of syllabuses are external to the learner, other-directed, determined by authority, set the course designer or teacher as decision maker, treat the subject matter of instruction as important, and assess success and failure in terms of achievement or mastery. Type B syllabuses focus on HOW the L2 is to be learned. They are non-interventionist. They involve no artificial pre-selection or arrangement of items and allow objectives to be determined by a process of negotiation between teacher and learners after they meet, as a course evolves. Those syllabuses are thus internal to the learner, negotiated between learners and teacher as joint decision makers, emphasize the process of learning rather than the subject matter, and assess accomplishment in relationship to learner's criteria of success. B. Conceptual syllabus vs. conventional curriculum
Traditionally L2 instruction has been organized in multiple threads representing different levels of L2 analysis as a system of signs and rules. If you look at the contents of a popular commercial handbook, you'll see that lessons are presented in rows and language aspects are given in columns. Thus, Lesson 3 may have a section on pronunciation, Grammar files, vocabulary, a text on some topic, and practice or production activities.

Thus, Lesson 3 may have a section on pronunciation, Grammar files, vocabulary, a text on some topic, and practice or production activities. This kind of table of contents is traditionally referred to as "curriculum". Novice teachers follow it as their route map, selecting certain lessons for delivery in class, and skipping certain aspects of those lessons, once found boring. There's no conceptual, hierarchical or principled way to organize such syllabus, that are mostly Synthetic or Type A. All kinds of bits and pieces of the L2 as a system of rules and signs are thrown together into one "pot", the book, so the teacher can cook something in class Monday morning and spoon-feed students in lock-step fashion. This "curriculum" is presented or operationalized in terms of goals or objectives that refer to different linguistic aspects or levels. One of the most important characteristics of such "curricula" is that they create practically no difference between teaching and assessment practices.

A. Synthetic vs. Analytic syllabus types
B. Conceptual syllabus vs. conventional curriculum
C. Pedagogical values
D. Competence, proficiency, and performance
Assignment 1:
Content: Exercises, such as cloze or multiple choice may appear both in class and during the test. What the teacher does here is only tests students' memory and discipline of doing their homework on time. Students are to display their ability to memorize another portion of linguistic system and demonstrate good results on the test or quiz. Courses based on such curriculum are linear, WHAT-to-teach-based, chaotic, non-professional and ill-informed about L2 learning, teaching, and L2 in itself. The assumption here is that a certain trajectory of learning-teaching activities is better than others. Finally, there's no room for professional exchange, PD, and objective assessment of students' progress nor effectiveness of such course. Conversely, the proposed conceptual syllabus is an attempt to operationalize HOW the L2 is to be learned and taught. It's major unit of analysis is the task format or an activity type. There can be activities stimulating bottom-up processing or top-down task completion. There's room for imitation exercises, concept formation tasks, summary writing, speech act analysis and so on.

It can be operationalized in sheer numbers representing the score of a standardized proficiency test. More specifically, the interval scale of a standardized proficiency test can be used to project expected progress of students who sit the test twice: in the beginning of the semester and in the end.

More specifically, the interval scale of a standardized proficiency test can be used to project expected progress of students who sit the test twice: in the beginning of the semester and in the end. Thus, each student can take pre-test at the beginning of a semester to benchmark her proficiency level. Later, at the end of the semester, upon completion of a number of process-oriented performance tasks, this student is offered to sit another version of the same test. The post-test produces the score which reflects this student's progress during the semester. A conceptual syllabus neatly captures the balance between a student's current proficiency level and her effort during the semester. It also frees teachers' time for assessment practices:

Assignment 1:
Content: a designated group of faculty may be commissioned to provide this type of testing in the beginning and the end of semester. In fact, teachers don't even have to give students a classroom grade, knowing that the only goal is increased test score at the end of the semester. It stimulates teacher's creativity, PD, genuine exchange of ideas. Implementation of the conceptual syllabus allows for decisions to be made hierarchically at three levels: the highest level: what progress score we can promise students next semester; lower level: what types of classroom activities we should use to push students to higher scores on the standardized test scale; and finally the lowest level when students, teacher, and an activity interact in real time in class. Conceptual syllabus, being mostly analytic and Type B, offers clear differentiation between activities used to propel students' L2 learning (proficiency) and performance higher and ways of assessing this proficiency.

The notion of pedagogical values becomes important on the second (syllabus) and third (classroom interaction) levels of planning. When making decisions about syllabus design, the teacher uses the principles of relevance of L2 education, its being realistic within given time and other constraints, and observability of learning outcomes.

When making decisions about syllabus design, the teacher uses the principles of relevance of L2 education, its being realistic within given time and other constraints, and observability of learning outcomes. Because the opinions about what makes L2 teaching "effective" vary widely, there's an acute need in a standardized gauge of measuring L2 learning. Once this scale is in place, both learners and teachers will know what values are prominent. What should we focus on when completing an activity? When should we correct students? How many times should we ask students to complete a certain activities.

Digging into the past
Potential causes of colder body temperature
Content: Public health has improved dramatically in the past 200 years due to advances in medical treatments, better hygiene, greater availability of food and improved standards of living. The authors also hypothesize that comfortable lives at constant ambient temperature contribute to a lower metabolic rate. Homes in the 19 th century had irregular heating and no cooling; today, central heating and air conditioning are commonplace. A more constant environment removes a need to expend energy to maintain a constant body temperature. “Physiologically, we’re just different from what we were in the past,” Parsonnet said. “ The environment that we’re living in has changed, including the temperature in our homes, our contact with microorganisms and the food that we have access to. All these things mean that although we think of human beings as if we’re monomorphic and have been the same for all of human evolution, we’re not the same. We’re actually changing physiologically.” Other Stanford co-authors of the study are senior research scientist Catherine Ley, PhD;

Content: Reflecting its absorptive function, the surface of the small intestine is amplified significantly at three levels: At a gross level, the small intestine is a long tube into whose lumen projects the plicae circularis, circular folds of the mucosal epithelium, lamina propria, muscularis mucosa, and submucosa. Villi, finger-like projections involving only the epithelium and lamina propria, project into the lumen. They have a central lymphatic vessel known as a lacteal, which is crucial for the absorption of lipids from the intestine. Microvilli make up a brush border on the surface of the columnar cells of the mucosal epithelium. The small intestine begins after the gastro-duodenal junction and is divided into three segments: duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. Duodenum
The duodenum contains the same wall layers seen in the previous portions of the GI tract: mucosa, submucosa, and muscularis externa. The epithelia and lamina propria of the mucosal layer are thrown into villi.

How Lies Spread Faster Than Truth: A Study of Viral Content
What are these bad practices? Key findings:
Content: The story’s point of origin, once traced back through the chain of links, is often something posted on social media or a thinly sourced claim from a person or entity. Among other problems, this lack of verification makes journalists easy marks for hoaxsters and others who seek to gain credibility and traffic by getting the press to cite their claims and content. News organizations are inconsistent at best at following up on the rumors and claims they offer initial coverage. This is likely connected to the fact that they pass them on without adding reporting or value. With such little effort put into the initial rewrite of a rumor, there is little thought or incentive to follow up. The potential for traffic is also greatest when a claim or rumor is new. So journalists jump fast, and frequently, to capture traffic. Then they move on. News organizations reporting rumors and unverified claims often do so in ways that bias the reader toward thinking the claim is true. The data collected using the Emergent database revealed that many news organizations pair an article about a rumor or unverified claim with a headline that declares it to be true.

The data collected using the Emergent database revealed that many news organizations pair an article about a rumor or unverified claim with a headline that declares it to be true. This is a fundamentally dishonest practice. News organizations utilize a range of hedging language and attribution formulations (“reportedly,” “claims,” etc.) to convey that information they are passing on is unverified. They frequently use headlines that express the unverified claim as a question (“Did a woman have a third breast added?”). However, research shows these subtleties result in misinformed audiences.

Body Image – Advertising and Magazines
Content: 8]
In recent years there have been some efforts in the magazine industry to buck the trend. For several years, the Quebec magazine Coup de Pouce has consistently included full-sized women in their fashion pages and Châtelaine has pledged not to touch up photos or to include models younger than 25 years of age. [ 9] Some clothing retailers have also committed to not using underweight models, most notably Aerie.. In 2014, Aerie pledged not to retouch any of their images used in advertisements for their clothes as a part of their #AerieREAL campaign. This shift in advertising caused their profits to spike 26% in 2016, suggesting that this trend mirrors a shift in global perspectives regarding body image. [ 10]
There is resistance to change, both within and outside the industry. When the Australian magazine New Woman included a picture of a heavy-set model on its cover, it received a truckload of letters from grateful readers praising the move, but its advertisers complained and the magazine returned to featuring bone-thin models. [ 11] According to Kirstie Clements, the former editor of Australian Vogue, this response is not unusual: “ [ editors] get so caught up in the hype of how brilliant clothes look on a size 4, they cannot see the inherent danger in the message…Many high fashion labels are aghast at the idea of producing a size 14, and they certainly wouldn’t want to see it displayed in the pages of the glossies.” [ 12]
Online influencers are another form of advertising and source of body image issues for teens. Some social networks popular with teens have taken steps to address this.

Content: When an older person feels faint upon turning the head or looking upward suddenly, the cause could be osteoarthritis of the neck bones. Osteoarthritis damages the cartilage between the neck bones and causes pressure on blood vessels leading to the brain. Fainting can be a symptom of a disease such as Stokes-Adams syndrome, a condition in which blood flow to the brain is temporarily reduced because of an irregular heartbeat. Some people may experience fainting associated with weakness in the limbs or a temporary problem in speaking caused by obstructed blood flow in vessels passing through the neck to the brain. Pregnant women frequently feel faint. Fainting may also occur as a result of low blood sugar. Low blood sugar can occur if a person skips a meal or has diabetes. Fainting can also be caused by: prolonged coughing
straining to defecate or urinate
blowing a wind instrument too hard
remaining in a stuffy environment with too little oxygen
Sometimes fainting may be caused by a temporary drop in the blood supply to the brain caused by a transient ischemic attack (TIA). A TIA, sometimes called a mini-stroke, is a disruption in the blood supply to the brain caused by a blocked or burst blood vessel.

An acronym for the pentad of clinical signs seen with a limited form of scleroderma: Calcinosis cutis
Raynaud’s phenomenon—at least a 2-phase colour change
Esophageal distal hypomotility or reflux esophagitis
Sclerodactyly or nonpitting digital edema
Telangiectasia; CREST has a slightly better prognosis than other connective tissue disorders, but has late complications—e.g., biliary cirrhosis and pulmonary hypertension
Lab Anticentromere antibodies are characteristic of CREST, but may also be seen in progressive systemic sclerosis, older women, or those with HLA-DR1

Content: When dairy products are ingested, the lactose reaches the digestive system and is broken down by lactase into the simpler sugars glucose and galactose. The liver changes the galactose into glucose, which then enters the bloodstream and raises the blood glucose level. Lactose intolerance occurs when, due to a deficiency of lactase, lactose is not completely broken down and the glucose level does not rise. While not usually dangerous, lactose intolerance can cause severe discomfort. From 30 to 50 million Americans suffer from the symptoms of lactose intolerance, but not everyone who is deficient in lactase experiences symptoms. Experts believe that 75% of the adult population worldwide does not produce enough lactase and is at risk for some or all of the symptoms of lactose intolerance. Causes and symptoms
Lactose intolerance can be caused by some diseases of the digestive system and by injuries to the small intestine that result in a decreased production of lactase. While rare, some children are also born unable to produce the enzyme. For many, however, lactase deficiency develops naturally because, after about two years of age, the body produces less lactase. Symptoms include nausea, cramps, diarrhea, bloating and gas.

Title:
Headings:
Content: The U. S. Department of Justice found that in domestic violence cases, 61% of the perpetrators and 36% of the victims had a substance abuse problem. The most common substance abused was alcohol. Males can be victims of physical abuse, especially in homosexual relationships, but the statistics for abuse against men are more poorly documented than for abuse against women and children. Sexual abuse
Sexual abuse of a child refers to sexual behavior between an adult and child or between two children, one of whom is forcefully dominant or significantly older. Sexual behaviors can include touching breasts, genitals, and buttocks while the victim is either dressed or undressed. Sexual abuse behavior also includes exhibitionism, cunnilingus, fellatio, or penetration of the vagina or anus with sexual organs or objects. Pornographic photography also is a form of sexual abuse of children. The U.S. Department of Justice estimates that one in six victims of a sexual assault are under age 12. Despite publicity surrounding cases where a child is assaulted by a stranger, almost all sexual assaults against children are perpetrated by a family member (e.g. father, stepfather, aunt, uncle, sibling, cousin) or family intimate (e.g., a live-in lover or friend of the parent). Sexual abuse also can take the form of rape.

Content: Camp gives families a world of good
It discusses comprehensive information on group work with gay and lesbian elders, caregivers, elders with Alzheimer's disease, service providers, special populations such as Vietnamese and Latino elders, and provides information on the use of expressive therapies like art, drama, and dance. Salmon, R., & Graziano, R. (Eds.). ( 2005). Group Work and Aging: Issues in Practice, Research, and Education
Utilizing a combination of pre-customized state forms and service offerings, it contains all the features of the current Web-based system suite, providing smaller districts with a complete solution for managing the administrative complexities and decision-making processes inherent in programs for special populations. The ASP option enables districts to minimize their investment in hardware, infrastructure and related support personnel. ENCORE! 4GL School Solutions Inc
Additional attention is also devoted to such special populations as children raised in multiracial or multicultural environments, children in the juvenile justice system, and homeless and runaway children. Canino, Ian A., & Spurlock, Jeanne. Culturally Diverse Children and Adolescents:

Content: Castration is the surgical removal of the testicles. Castration is performed as a cancer therapy, to reduce the amount of testosterone being produced, and as part of treatment for prostate cancer. In castration, an incision is made through one or both sides of the scrotum, depending on whether one or both testicles are being removed. Trauma
Traumatic injuries to the testes may involve penetrating gunshot or knife wounds; explosions and other industrial accidents; and athletic injuries. Dislocation of the testes is a potential complication of blunt trauma to the abdomen, which commonly occurs in automobile or motorcycle accidents. A dislocated testis can usually be identified by either ultrasound or CT scans of the patient's pelvis. Intersex states
Intersex states are a group of developmental diseases in which the patient has parts of both male and female genitalia. In testicular feminization syndrome, the patient appears to be a female and will have female genitalia but has internal testes.

Content: Two factors are involved in the risk for CP associated with prematurity. First, premature babies are at higher risk for various CP-associated medical complications, such as intracerebral hemorrhage, infection, and difficulty in breathing, to name a few. Second, the onset of premature labor may be induced, in part, by complications that have already caused neurologic damage in the fetus. A combination of both factors almost certainly plays a role in some cases of CP. The tendency toward premature delivery runs in families, but the genetic mechanisms are far from clear. An increase in multiple pregnancies in recent years, especially in the United States, is blamed on the increased use of fertility drugs. As the number of fetuses in a pregnancy increases, the risks for abnormal development and premature delivery also increase. Children from twin pregnancies have four times the risk of developing CP as children from singleton pregnancies, owing to the fact that more twin pregnancies are delivered prematurely. The risk for CP in a child of triplets is up to 18 times greater. Furthermore, recent evidence suggests that a baby from a pregnancy in which its twin died before birth is at increased risk for CP.

Content: A male, however, having only one X chromosome, will be color blind if that chromosome has the recessive gene, since there is no corresponding dominant gene to suppress it. It is possible for a female to be color blind, if she has two of the recessive genes, but it is quite rare that these two genes come together in one person. Another characteristic associated with sex is baldness. The gene for baldness is dominant in males and recessive in females. Thus a male need have only one gene for baldness for the trait to be expressed, but a female must have two. Hereditary Diseases. These should be distinguished from congenital birth defects. A congenital defect is one that the infant is born with, such as a cleft lip, a birthmark, or congenital syphilis, but the defect can arise during conception or pregnancy and not be related to heredity. Hereditary diseases, on the other hand, are passed from generation to generation by genes. Some diseases, such as cystic fibrosis, are transmitted by recessive genes.

Mutation is the term used for a spontaneous change in a chromosome or gene. Normally chromosomes duplicate themselves exactly during cell division. Occasionally, however, the new cells contain an altered gene or chromosome. If the mutation occurs in an ovum or sperm involved in reproduction, the new trait will be expressed in the offspring.

In this particular case only the adventitia and tunica muscularis were considered abnormal; therefore a type 1 stricture was considered the most likely diagnosis. Treatment of an Esophageal Stricture in a 1-Month-Old Miniature Shetland Colt
Villus height, crypt depth, epithelial cell height, ratio of villus height to crypt depth, tunica muscularis externa and tunica submucosa were analysed using a linear model including dietary treatment, region of the small intestine, and the interaction between dietary treatment and region as fixed effects, and piglet nested within diet as a random effect. Dietary bovine colostrum increases villus height and decreases small intestine weight in early-weaned pigs

What is Schizandra Berry? Schizandra ( Schizandra chinensis ), sometimes written schisandra, or referred to botanically, as Chinese Magnolia Vine, Wu Wei Zi or Five Flavor Berry, is a climbing vine native to parts of China, Russia, and Korea. It grows to approximately 8 metres tall, and produces oval-shaped leaves and large flowers that range from white and yellow to red and pink. In autumn, the plant produces round, bright red berries that grow in clusters similar to grapes. The dried berries of the Schizandra vine are the part of the plant that is used medicinally, and occasionally along with the potent seeds. [easyazon_link keywords=”Schizandra Berries” locale=”US” tag=”dmgbiz-20″]Schizandra Berries [/easyazon_link] have been used traditionally in Russia, where they were consumed as a remedy against fatigue, as well as in Japan and Korea.

It was used, somewhat paradoxically, both as a sedative or sleep aid to cure insomnia, and as a means to combat exhaustion (as in the Russian example above). It was also used as an expectorant to loosen mucus from the lungs; to treat coughs and asthma;

Schizandra Berry Benefits and Uses
While Schizandra chinensis has not undergone extensive human trials, it has shown extremely promising results in animal studies, and its beneficial compounds are well-known. The chief components of the berries are lignans, which make up about 2% of the fruit by weight. The berries also contain triterpenoids, organic acids such as citric and malic acid, melatonin, and vitamins C and E, among other compounds.

Improving age-related cognitive health: Deoxyschizandrin, a lignan, has been shown to improve memory and cognitive ability in rats. This may be due to improved flow of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, and may suggest future treatment methods for diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and Huntington disease.

Reducing Psychological Stress: In a study, 40 healthy women in a condition of psychological stress were given either a placebo or the herb combination ADAPT-232 (containing Schizandra chinensis, Rhodiola rosea, and Eleutherococcus senticosus ). After taking a series of tests, it was found that those who had taken ADAPT-232 did noticeably better in regards to speed, attention, and accuracy. This may be due to Schizandra reducing levels of stress-related chemicals in the body, such as cortisol. Protecting and improving liver health: The compound Gomisin A can increase liver blood flow and improve liver function in rats, and the additional compounds Schizandrin B and Schizandrol B have been shown to increase liver weight in rats.

While human studies of Schizandra are scarce, its properties are significant enough to have been the basis of two pharmaceutical liver medications, Diphenyl Dimethyl Dicarboxylate and Bicyclol. It has also been used as a liver treatment since the 1970s in Western Herbal Medicine, confirming that its most effective usage discovered to date is treating liver complications.

Schizandra Berry Side Effects
Reports of side effects from consuming Schizandra chinensis are rare, and research is inconclusive as to what, if any, its adverse effects are. It is known that the seeds of the berry are toxic to mice at a dose of 3.6 g/kg. In an experiment, mice experienced convulsions and paresis when given injections of seed-derived lignans; however, none of them died.

More importantly, Schizandra may interact with medications, such as reducing the blood-thinning effects of Warfarin. It may also interact with liver and gastric enzymes. There is no safety information regarding its use by pregnant and lactating women, and as with all herbal medications, you should consult with your doctor before consuming it. Some people may be concerned by a white film which can appear on dried Schizandra berries, however this is simply crystallized sucrose from the fruit. Did you know?

Schizandra berry extract can also be found in pills, capsules, and liquids. Occasionally, Schizandra is combined with other herbs, such as the patented blend ADAPT-232 (mentioned above), or the Chinese blend Sheng-Mai-San, comprised of Schizandra chinensis, Radix ginseng, and Radix ophiopogon japonicus.

Preventing health effects
Content: What is in the dust? The pigments (colors) in paints you use are often made from metal salts. The most hazardous pigments contain cadmium, lead, and chromium. [ The exact ingredients of the colors you spray should be listed in the MSDS or on the label.] These metals are released into the air when you spray coatings or when you weld, grind or sand old paint. Grit from sandpaper and tiny particles of filler are also put in the air when sanding paint or body filler. Sweeping or blowing keeps the dust in the air. What are the effects of breathing dusts and metals? Repeated exposure to excessive amounts of any dust can irritate your eyes, ears, nose, throat and skin and possibly cause lung damage. Symptoms might include a rash, cough, congestion or trouble breathing.

Title: 41.1 WHAT IS DESCRIPTIVE RESEARCH?

41.1.1 The Nature of Descriptive Research
Content: 41.1 WHAT IS DESCRIPTIVE RESEARCH? 41.1 What Is Descriptive Research? Descriptive research does not fit neatly into the definition of either quantitative or qualitative research methodologies, but instead it can utilize elements of both, often within the same study. The term descriptive research refers to the type of research question, design, and data analysis that will be applied to a given topic. Descriptive statistics tell what is, while inferential statistics try to determine cause and effect. The type of question asked by the researcher will ultimately determine the type of approach necessary to complete an accurate assessment of the topic at hand. Descriptive studies, primarily concerned with finding out "what is," might be applied to investigate the following questions: Do teachers hold favorable attitudes toward using computers in schools? What kinds of activities that involve technology occur in sixth-grade classrooms and how frequently do they occur? What have been the reactions of school administrators to technological innovations in teaching the social sciences?
