accumulates data in the form of numbers that can be assessed in an objective fashion, usually involving equations. It frequently takes the form of an experimental design. "Quantitative research gathers data in numerical form which can be put into categories, or in rank order, or measured in units of measurement. This type of data can be used to construct graphs and tables of raw data" (McLeod 2008). For example, a study of the efficacy of a program to prevent teenage suicide might compare the suicide rates of two demographically similar groups of teens: the experimental group that experienced the intervention and the control group that did not. However, not all quantitative assessment methods take the form of formal experiments and quantitative approaches can encompass surveys and other numerical data collection methods (Sakar n.d.). Quantitative research is most useful to gather information from a wide array of subjects and to…...

First Response:

Mathematical Happenings between Ancient Egypt and the 11th Century: Thales and Pythagoras Inspire the Grecian World In the 6th century, mathematics came to Greece and helped launch the next stage of mathematical evolution in the history of the West. Responsible for this movement were two people—first, Thales of Miletus; second, Pythagoras of Samos (Lewinter & Widulski, 2002). This paper will explain the important contributions that these two mathematicians made in this period of ancient history and show how they were received by the world.
While most people remember ancient Greece for introducing Socrates, Plato and Aristotle to the world, the pre-Socratic mathematicians and philosophers Thales and Pythagoras actually helped to set the stage for the future philosophers by advancing the ideas and theorems that would push the envelope in terms of mathematical thought and philosophy. After all, it was Pythagoras and his school that coined the phrase, “All is number” (NRich, 2011).…...

MathA) To find the mean, we add up all the numbers and divide by the total number of numbers:5 + 7 + 3 + 8 + 2 + 3 + 3 + 1 + 9 = 41There are 9 numbers in the list, so the mean is:mean = 41/9 ? 4.56To find the median, we first need to put the numbers in order from smallest to largest:1, 2, 3, 3, 3, 5, 7, 8, 9There are 9 numbers in the list, so the median is the middle number, which is:median = 3To find the mode, we look for the number that appears most often in the list. In this case, there is one number that appears three times, so the mode is:mode = 3B) To find the mean, we add up all the numbers and divide by the total number of numbers:104 + 139 + 145 + 150 + 167…...

Base ten number system and on common misconceptions, which young children might develop when trying to learn about the use of numbers.
What is Place Value Notation

Place value notation, also otherwise known as positional notation, is a system of encoding numbers such that it simplifies the arithmetic. It is the basis for understanding arithmetic and is essential to the way we read, write, speak or use whole numbers. Another important use of the place value notation is that it allows us to string together and make sense of a sequence of whole numbers put together in order. Quite simply, the place-value system allows us to make sense of a sequence of numbers which would otherwise have just appeared to be random digits put together.

real number is assigned to each statement written in a language, within a range from 0 to 1, where 1 means that the statement is completely true, and 0 means that the statement is completely false, while values less than 1 but greater than 0 represent that the statements are partly true, to a given, quantifiable extent. This makes it possible to analyze a distribution of statements for their truth-content, identify data patterns, make inferences and predictions, and model how processes operate.

Multiplicative Number Theory
The Number theory is one of the oldest and largest branches of pure mathematics, which relates to questions and problems based on numbers that are either whole numbers or rational numbers.

The number theory is a branch of mathematics that relates to the properties of the integers comprised of the numbers 0, 1, -1, 2, -2, 3, -3, etc. One of the most essential areas in number theory concerns the analysis of prime numbers. In mathematics, A prime number is defined as an integer p>1 divisible only by 1 and p; the first few primes are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, and 19. Integers that can be divided by more than one divisors are called composite numbers; these numbers include some of the following 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12.

The principle theorem of arithmetic, is the factorization theorem, which states that any positive integer a is a…...

" (Avogadro)
His most well-known contribution to the field of chemistry was the statement titled; the Avogadro constant or Avogadro number. Avogadro stated that "a mole equals 6.022 x 1023." (American) It also states that equal volumes of gases, at the same temperature and pressure have the same amount of molecules.

Avogadro's number really means the number of molecules in a mole. His number is essential in chemistry because it calculates the amount of pure substances in stoichiometric relationships. It also determines how much heavier a simple molecule of one gas is than that of another. This number is also very large 6.0221367x10^23. However, Avogadro only hypothesized this and he was not responsible for calculating it, Loschmidt was. (Furtsch)

Even though, Avogadro was not fully responsible for the discovery of the mole, he did solve many controversies and gathered enough research for other scientists, like Loschmidt, to calculate. His curiosity led him to…...

A fishbowl draw (or a similar method of physically randomizing the selection of numbers from the population contained in the table, such as dropping a coin from high above an enlarged version of the table and allowing it to bounce onto selected numbers) would be preferred for this study. This means of selection would fully randomize the selection, ensuring the validity of the sample, while at the same time would be fairly easy to accomplish. The creation or utilization of a computer program to randomly select numbers form this population would also be a highly valid and reliable way of accomplishing the necessary sampling, but this would be much more time-intensive as it would require the inputting of the entire population into the computer before the sample could be created. Analysis would be accomplished much faster by the computer after the data had been input, of course, but the data…...

There are a number of points of interest regarding "Massage therapy in post-operative rehabilitation of children and adolescents with cerebral palsy - a pilot study." On the whole this is an extremely well-organized article, which is one of its primary strengths. The different sections and phases of the research are well documented. There are a variety of tables that elucidate several components related to the literature review, the results, and the particulars of the subjects considered in the research. However, there is more than one area of the study in which the researchers could have benefited from the use of more substantial effort and a more thorough methodology, which is certainly reflected in the results and the conclusion.

The central weakness of this study is the fact that all of the results were based on research performed on just six subjects. To the credit of the researchers they initially…...

Harassment, including sexual and other types as well, is also a common type of formal complaint that must be taken very seriously by contemporary businesses. More extensive employee training can help better inform employees of appropriate work behavior, so that there are less incidences of harassment between employees unknowingly.

etter trained employees makes for a more efficient work environment with less complications. Therefore, the research showed that "many organizations within it industries focus on providing "extensive retraining of employees," especially "as reengineering efforts go forward it is important to define and redefine performance goals and objectives, maintain a strong commitment to the vision, break the barriers between the departments, and be flexible as the business environment changes."

More extensive formal training can help with "nipping negativity before it derails morale" by reassuring the proper procedures but also by explaining appropriate company policy more directly and intimately so that all employees can better…...

Automatic Number Identification
Pros:

The automatic number identification telephone service is good for many reasons. A person can look at the number that is trying to call them, and determined whether or not they want to take the call. This is helpful, for example, during dinner or other activities when people are trying to spend time with their families and telemarketers are calling. It is also extremely helpful in the event of taxi service, pizza delivery, and other businesses that perform deliveries. They can use the ANI system to determine whether or not the order that they have received is legitimate. Callers to 911 are also helped by the service because they are often too frightened to talk to the person on the other end of the line. By having an ANI device, 911 operators can get their phone number as well as their address instead of having to ask them…...

The passive style is described as management by exception where employees do not receive notice for their positive contributions to the organization, but instead are paid attention by their manager only when an error or problem arises. Punishment or disciplinary action is often the medium used in this approach. Active transactional leadership uses contingent rewards. With this approach, employees are praised for their performance and may be eligible for pay increases or other incentives (Bolman & Deal, 1991, p. 419). The type of leadership exhibited clearly determines the type of motivation used and often its success or failure.
The situational leadership theory of Hersey and Blanchard proposes that the optimal amount of task and relations behavior depends upon subordinate maturity. As the authors note, what the manager needs is a simple and logical framework for making decisions that will be successful (Hersey & Blanchard, 1990, p. 412). This theory prescribes…...
