What does "disciplinary concepts" refer to?
Q. I'm working on a project proposal and there's a section that says "Identify/list the disciplinary concepts from social studies you will focus on in your project." And I was like WHUT. Do they mean topics we've covered such as globalisation? Or more abstract ideas like advocacy?

A. I think that is teacher speak for the subject matter. Or the broader aspect of the social sciences. It doesn't change anything. Just write a concise topic and get it approved. She/he will let you know if you are on or off the mark.

Q. I have a hard time talking, writing or "discussing" Math concepts also, but you got the concept. Generally we think of 2 is less than 3 or 5 is more than 4, but the opposite is true on the negative side of the number line. Carol
Asked by carol h - Fri Jan 8 03:11:51 2010 - Mathematics - 7 Answers - Comments

A. The concept of larger than and smaller than that we as human beings are used to thinking of involves positive numbers. That's because we learn to count with positive integers as children, the counting numbers 1,2,3,4,5.. In fact because positive numbers are so familar, we sometimes use the concept of absolute value to clarify the greater than or less than relation when we consider negative numbers. Consider -5 and - 1 for example. -5 has a greater absolute value than -1 so -5 is more to the left on the number line than -1 , which means -5 is more negative than -1 ans that implies that -5 is less than -1 written -5 |-1| , hopefully you know that | | denotes the absolute value function In general if b is a negative number whose absolute… [cont.]

What is the difference between the concepts "tenseless" and "timeless"?
Q. I'll be glad to know the main peculiarities which distinguish such terms.
Asked by S.I.O.(UA) - Mon Feb 16 07:15:58 2009 - Words & Wordplay - 2 Answers - Comments

A. Well, a tense is a prescribed notion of time, whether it be the past, present, or future. It is a dependent function of time. Without time, there is no tense. Therefore, if it is timeless, then it is tenseless. It cannot always be vice versa though, because if it is tenseless, it can therefore be nonexistent. I don't know if this makes any sense.

Q. For excample the earth is the center of the universe
Asked by - Fri Jun 24 16:48:48 2011 - Religion & Spirituality - 7 Answers - Comments

A. Nowhere in the Bible are we told that the Earth is at the center of the universe. For many centuries, however, people believed that Claudius Ptolemaeus and others were correct when they advocated an Earth-centered universe. They wanted to believe this theory because some thought, incorrectly, that this is what the Bible teaches. Taken in order, Genesis 1:14-18, Psalm 104:5, Job 26:7 and Isaiah 40:22 were often cited to support the geocentric theory of Ptolemaeus. Yet none of these Scriptures, taken in any order whatsoever, state that God designed the universe with Earth at its center. In fact, Earth isn t even the center of its own small solar system; the sun is. We can understand why Copernicus and, later, Galileo, who posited the sun-cent [cont.]

A. Concept in dance is basically the main focus or idea of the dance. Its easy to put a few movements together but to choreograph something really good its important to have a concept.

Can someone provide a valid definition or explanation of the concept "significant main effect"?
Q. I am not a lazy student or an inept practitioner, but I have to read a lot of social science literature and keep running across this phrase. I am long out of school and this didn't come up in my required psych course. I have not been able to find a clear explanation of how a "significant main effect" is established or supported by data. From context I have begun to get the feeling that researchers report a significant main effect when none of the tested hypothesis are supported ...

A. In Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) a main effec refers to a difference in population means for a given factor collapsed over the levels of all other factors in the design. the term significant refers to the notion that the result revealed from one's analysis (in this case the main effect of the given variable) was has a less than 5% chance of resulting from pure chance alone (i.e. not really representative of the different groups). or in other words we can say with 95% confidence that the main effect observed was real. you can see the confidence level of those main effects you read about by referring to the p value. the p value (typically less than .05) is the probability that the reported statistic resulted from chance alone. 1-p is the… [cont.]

A. It depends on the institution, and I encourage you to email the place and ask for the outline. They should be impressed with the research you are doing for your career. Usually, though, that would be an introduction to developing content and presentation and would include some of the following: the study of line, shape, volume, balance, positive and negative space, pen and ink drawing (line groups), value scales ( through paint mixing), collage, color theory- additive and subtractive color, color for digital media (photography), RGB color and process color, concept development, compositional devices, critical thinking, craftsmanship, and presentation of finished work.

What are the concepts: "intending as end" "intending as a means" and "merely foreseeing" mean in philosophy?
Q. what does each concept mean?
Asked by - Wed May 5 17:01:51 2010 - Philosophy - 2 Answers - Comments

A. As stand-alone concepts, they mean little. They would have to be put into context. A Marxist would use them very differently than an Objectivist or a relativist. I don't see how the adjective "intending" changes anything in the first two: an "end" is what is to be, or what is meant to be under natural law. Man is an end in himself if you are not a Marxist. If you are a Marxist, man is only the "means" to an end, which is "the greater good." (See how different philosophies apply the word in context to another word, in this case "man"?) But "merely forseeing" sounds made up. I've never read of it. It is not common anyway as a term, and without context I can't answer that part.

What is a "concept"? How can we overcome the limiting effects it is causing? Keeping us trapped in pictures!
Q. Wikipedia: "A concept is an abstract idea or a mental symbol, typically associated with a corresponding representation and language or symbology. Concepts are expected to be useful in dealing with reality." Bei Yin: Without doubt concepts are useful in daily life. The dilemma is that they inhibit a direct relating to reality and so influence the response determinated, functioning as a filter. The worst is that this all happens on an unconscious level and gives an easy way to be manipulated from people who know how to use this.

A. I see that concepts as part of personality is based on our belief system. We hold a concept based on how we believe things to be in daily life. I don t see any problem by itself with having a conceptual belief; I see them as our current understanding or theory of the world we live in. I would never say one should put faith in a belief, but rather what is most important is that we realize we do have them and they have no basis in reality. The problem with these comes in when we aren t open to dropping our concept when life is showing us that what we believed in no longer holds true.

What is the main science concept of the book "A Briefer History of Time" by Stephen Hawking and Leonard M.?
Q. So i read "A Briefer History of Time" by Stephen Hawking and Leonard Mlodinow for school (NOT "A Brief History of Time", thats a totally different book) Anyway, one of the questions im supposed to answer is: what is the main science concept of the book and how it is important to the story? I'm not sure what it means when it says "concept" like is that the main idea or is it the general concept presented and how is that different from the main theme of the book? (the previous question). If you know what the main science concept is, or could clarify what the question is asking, or have any idea at all about this stuff, anything would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

A. Yes, main "concept" means the "theme", or what is the book about? Hawking's A Brief History of Time, published in 1988, was a surprise best-seller but a tough read for most people who tackled it. Hawking received many requests for a version that would make his discussion of deep questions about the universe more accessible. This new book does that. Also, Hawkings updated the new book with more recent scientific discoveries and the new research on Superstring theory.
