This is a great lesson to use with pre-intermediate students. Though parts of it can be used with beginner students and as a review for more advanced students. The point of this lesson is to give students the ability to differentiate between similar-looking adjectives in English. When teaching adjectives ending in –ed and –ing you will cover words like boring and bored which tend to confuse new speakers. So if you find that one of your students is struggling with adjectives this is the right lesson to teach.If you want additional lesson plans and support, including teachers’ notes, be sure to register for a free Off2Class account.

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:
"Many microbiome studies have matched-pair or matched-set designs, in which data naturally cluster into sets, with some within-set variation in traits of interest. Statistical methods help us make sense of these data, testing hypotheses at the community or operational taxonomic unit (OTU) level. Now, researchers present a new strategy for analyzing matched-set microbial data. The method can be used with both PERMANOVA, a commonly used distance-based method for testing hypotheses at the community level, and the linear decomposition model (LDM), which unifies the community-level and OTU-level tests into one framework. An indicator variable for each set is included as a covariate to constrain comparisons between samples within a set. Simulations using this method showed that the strategy outperformed alternative strategies in a wide range of scenarios, and the flexibility of these methods to allow discrete or continuous traits or interactions to be tested was illustrated with analysis of two real datasets..."

As inflation raises the overall price level in an economy, the purchasing power of the dollar decreases and both borrowing and lending costs increase. The January 2023 issue of Page One Economics® discusses how price indexes can be used to transform nominal wages and interest rates into real, or inflation-adjusted, values.

Adjustment theory can be regarded as the part of mathematical geodesy that deals with the optimal combination of redundant measurements together with the estimation of unknown parameters. It is essential for a geodesist, its meaning comparable to what mechanics means to a civil engineer or a mechanical engineer. Historically, the first methods of combining redundant measurements originate from the study of three problems in geodesy and astronomy, namely to determine the size and shape of the Earth, to explain the long-term inequality in the motions of Jupiter and Saturn, and to find a mathematical representation of the motions of the Moon. Nowadays, the methods of adjustment are used for a much greater variety of geodetic applications, ranging from, for instance, surveying and navigation to remote sensing and global positioning.
The two main reasons for performing redundant measurements are the wish to increase the accuracy of the results computed and the requirement to be able to check for errors. Due to the intrinsic uncertainty in measurements, measurement redundancy generally leads to an inconsistent system of equations. Without additional criteria, such a system of equations is not uniquely solvable. In this introductory course on adjustment theory, methods are developed and presented for solving inconsistent systems of equations. The leading principle is that of least-squares adjustment together with its statistical properties.
The inconsistent systems of equations can come in many different guises. They could be given in parametric form, in implicit form, or as a combination of these two forms. In each case the same principle of least-squares applies. The algorithmic realizations of the solution will differ however. Depending on the application at hand, one could also wish to choose between obtaining the solution in one single step or in a step-wise manner. This leads to the need of formulating the system of equations in partitioned form. Different partitions exist, measurement partitioning, parameter partitioning, or a partitioning of both measurements and parameters. The choice of partitioning also affects the algorithmic realization of the solution. In this introductory text the methodology of adjustment is emphasized, although various samples are given to illustrate the theory. The methods discussed form the basis for solving different adjustment problems in geodesy.

This resource provides schools and community organizations with a guide to administering the hope scale for children or adults. The resource provides background information about the Science of Hope, a decision chart on how to use the toolkit, step by step instructions on how to administer and score the hope scale. The toolkit PDF is informational, but the scoring template companion resource is interactive and includes formulas for the user to track data. The original toolkit content was developed for Kitsap Strong by Maya A. McKenzie, MPH, CPH.
