SIX STEPS TO UNDERSTANDING MATHEMATICS

Content credit:   http://m.wikihow.com/Make-Math-Easy Oftentimes, when it comes to math, some people struggle with the concepts, finding it too difficult. But follow these few steps and Math will be easy in every class. Master your basics:  The number one reason that people struggle in math class is because their basics and their fundamentals are not fully developed. Algebra and Geometry are the building blocks for the more advanced math later on (Calculus, Differential Equations, etc...). Get ahead:  Most schools give you a textbook for math and it's a pretty big book. What you can do is, study ahead. Whenever you have time, you can look a section ahead, and be prepared for tomorrow's material. Do the self-study :  This is the most efficient way of studying math. I would recommend you to buy math textbooks from a local bookstore. You can also search on the internet for great math books.Don't get a book that is very short (100 pages) for a topic like Geometry. Get a tex

Having a pot-belly has become very rampant among men in the Nigerian society. Apart from affecting smart dressing  in men, it poses health hazards. Even the women folks strongly frown at this odd development.   There are pills in the market today and numerous exercise routines that claim to rid belly fat. However, changes in a person’s lifestyle are a more direct and more effective approach to eliminating the problem.   Excessive belly fat is said to increases the risk of diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, sleep apnea and even Alzheimer’s disease. Here are 5 of the most common causes of belly fat: 1. Drinking Too Much Alcohol “Beer belly” is the common term for excess fat that has accumulated due to drinking a lot of alcohol on a regular basis. Beer isn’t the only culprit, though. Contrary to the specific term, drinking an excessive amount of any alcoholic beverage can cause beer belly. (Except wine, according to research.) Alcohol contains nothing but empty calories

BEN CARSON'S VIEW OF LIFE

Image
Dr . Ben Carson (Retired world renowned neurosurgeon, and Republican Presidential Aspirant) wrote this beautiful piece. Read and be blessed. Sometimes you are unsatisfied with your life, while many people in this world are dreaming of living your life. A child on a farm sees a plane fly overhead and dreams of flying. But, a pilot on the plane sees the farmhouse and dreams of returning home. That's life!! Enjoy yours. If wealth is the secret to happiness, then the rich should be dancing on the streets. But only poor kids do that. If power ensures security, then officials should walk unguarded. But those who live simply, sleep soundly. If beauty and fame bring ideal relationships, then celebrities should have the best marriages. But those who live simply, walk humbly and love genuinely! All good will come back to you!!! Man asks, “Where was God when Myles Munroe, wife and his associates were killed in a crash? He answers, "The same place I sat when John the Baptist m

BE CREATIVE, BE INNOVATIVE & THANKFUL

Image
A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said: "I am blind, please help." There were only a few coins in the hat. A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words. Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognised his footsteps and asked, "Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?" The man said, "I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different way. "I wrote: 'Today is a beautiful day; but I cannot see it.'" Both signs told people that the boy was blind. But the first sign simply said the boy was blind. The second sign reminded people how fortun

EAGLE EYES OF GOD IN MAN

Image
THE EAGLE EYES OF GOD IN MAN   The eagle eyes I am talking about is our CONSCIENCE. Conscience is an inner voice that gives moral lessons to act  right, he testifies to us whether we are right with God or men and whether our deeds, thoughts, and words are according to God's will and not in rebellion against Him. It does not matter whether you go to church or not, read bible or not, or whether you are a free thinker. Once you go astray or do contrary to God's will, conscience will beam his warning light to alert you about your action. If you then fail to correct the wrong, it is assuredly recorded against you. The sharp eagle eyes of our consciences cannot be escaped wither soever we go to commit the crime be it in the open or in secret. Anytime your conscience pricks you be rest assured that God has seen you and that action is condemned. If necessary repentance is not done, the conscience is weakened and eventually deadened leading to perverse and crooked behavior. The cons

BATTLE IT ON YOUR KNEES

     BATTLE IT ON YOUR KNEES INTRODUCTION The world in which we are is a wicked, evil, sinful, adulterous and perverse world. Many system of the world today are under Satanic manipulations. TROUBLOUS WORLD " Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble (Job 14:1; 5:7; Ecc 2:23). God (the creator of heaven and earth) had not designed it to be like that, but man willingly surrendered his will to the devil in the garden of Eden by yielding to Satanic suggestions and manipulations contrary to God's command. God's intention for us was to live forever because He [God] did not tell Adam not to eat fruits from the tree of life. He told not to touch the tree of knowledge and He had his own reason for that. Our first parents disobeyed and evil entered into this world (Gen 3 :1 - 24). The curse of God since then is upon this world and that is the reason why there are painful experiences in the world. Man, having sold himself to the devil is under the manip

TYPES OF COLLABORATIVE LEARNING STRATEGIES

TYPES OF COLLABORATIVE LEARNING STRATEGIES Collaborative learning strategies can also be called cooperative or team learning strategy. Some of collaborative learning strategies are 3 - Steps Interview Simple Jigsaw Think Pair Share Number Heads Together THREE STEPS INTERVIEW STRATEGY   This is a team building exercise whereby one student interview the other and thereafter shift roles. A pair and another pair then come together to discuss their findings. THINK PAIR SHARE STRATEGY A higher order questions (on  analysis, synthesis, and evaluation) will be given to the students. The facilitator allows them to individually think through for a particular period of time. Thereafter, they turn to their partner and share their responses. The time of thinking can also be used to write down the points or their findings. After exchanging ideas, then they share with the whole class about what they have found out.

COLLABORATIVE LEARNING

Image
 COLLABORATIVE LEARNING STRATEGY Collaborative learning is one of the 5 Cs of 21st learning strategies. This strategy is student or learners centered rather than the teachers. It is an activity based strategy. Teacher that wishes to use this strategy must be innovative and proactive, in the sense that s(he) needs to have prepared before hand activities based on the instructional objectives to be achieved in the classroom. The activities planned must be clear enough to guide students on what to do so as to achieve the objectives by students on their own in small groups interactively. The teacher only acts as a facilitator; that is, he scaffolds the students while they carry out the activities in the classroom. This is the reason why the sitting arrangements in 21st century classroom should be in small groups form to encourage team learning where students can brainstorm on activity at hand. Students understand their peers language better than that of the teacher and can easily learn fr

CONNECT TO HIS POWER

Image
I John 3:8 says for this cause the son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil. He had finished the work of your salvation on the cross, all you need to do is to sincerely connect to his power and power of sin will be chartered in your life; the grip of sins will be destroyed. God is immutable, He cannot lie, Jesus is the power of God to save you from sins. The steps to be taken are not expensive so that you won't have any excuse if you die in sin. You have followed Christians: true believers in Christ to the valley, you have followed them to the mountain, yet you remain in sin, prison doors have been opened yet you refuse to come out. You will be of all men the most miserable if you don't repent from evil unto righteousness; from Satan to God;from formication and adultery; from idolatry which is covetousness. Connect to his power and receive the power to overcome sin, Satan, self and the world.
