Windows 8 Shortcuts to Bypass the Elongated Routes - 0 views

  •  
    Windows 8, according to some perspectives, is considered to be challenging in use. Many functions have been relocated and many new features are not visible and recognized. A new user logged into Windows 8 is similar to child caught in a maze. To avoid such confusions, this article is concentrated on the Shortcut keys, through which one can easily bypass the standard route to access a function or application.

Introduction to Creative Thinking - 0 views

    • Maryanne Burgos
       
      This is the viewpoint of the authors of Disrupting Class who believe that "innovation does not take root through a direct attach on the existing system.  Instead it must go around and underneath the system.  This is how disruption drives affordability, accessibility, capability and responsiveness." (p. 225)

  • general purpose spray cleaners can be used to kill ants.
  • ...22 more annotations...
  • Changing Direction
  • the goal is to solve the problem, not to implement a particular solution.
  • Motivation--a willingness to expend the effort--is more important than laboratory apparatus. And remember that you can always do something. Even if you cannot totally eradicate the problem from the face of the earth, you can always do something to make the situation better.
  • Mistakes aren't fun, but they sure are educational.
  • Positive Attitudes for Creativity
  • Curiosity. Creative people want to know things--all kinds of things-- just to know them. Knowledge does not require a reason. The question, "Why do you want to know that?" seems strange to the creative person, who is likely to respond, "Because I don't know the answer." Knowledge is enjoyable and often useful in strange and unexpected ways
  • halleng
  • Challenge. Curious people like to identify and challenge the assumptions behind ideas, proposals, problems, beliefs, and statements. Many assumptions, of course, turn out to be quite necessary and solid, but many others have been assumed unnecessarily, and in breaking out of those assumptions often comes a new idea, a new path, a new solution.
  • Constructive discontent. This is not a whining, griping kind of discontent, but the ability to see a need for improvement and to propose a method of making that improvement. Constructive discontent is a positive, enthusiastic discontent, reflecting the thought, "Hey, I know a way to make that better."
  • 4. A belief that most problems can be solved.
  • 5. The ability to suspend judgment and criticism.
  • Remember then that (1) an idea may begin to look good only after it becomes a bit more familiar or is seen in a slightly different context or clothing or circumstance
  • 6. Seeing the good in the bad. Creative thinkers, when faced with poor solutions, don't cast them away. Instead, they ask, "What's good about it?" because there may be something useful even in the worst ideas. And however little that good may be, it might be turned to good effect or made greater.
  • 7. Problems lead to improvements.
  • 8. A problem can also be a solution
  • 9. Problems are interesting and emotionally acceptable.
  • Miscellaneous Good Attitudes
  • 1. Perseverance.
  • 2. A flexible imagination
  • 3. A belief that mistakes are welcome. Modern society has for some reason conceived the idea that the only unforgivable thing is to fail or make a mistake. Actually failure is an opportunity; mistakes show that something is being done. So creative people have come to realize and accept emotionally that making mistakes is no negative biggie. One chief executive of a big American corporation warns all his newly hired managers, "Make sure you make a reasonable number of mistakes." Mistakes are educational and can lead to success--because they mean you are doing something.

Houghton Mifflin Harcourt - Global Education Challenge - Idea Display - 3 views

  • our educational system practices have a tendency to foster dependence, passivity and a "tell me what to do" attitude. Effective learning is that students are in charge of their own learning and progress.  A growing body of research indicates that when students are working on goals they themselves have set, they are more motivated and efficient, and they achieve more than they do when working on goals that have been set by the teacher.

Why Your Startup Needs Custom Software Development Company - 0 views

  •  
    The business world is full of challenges, from accounting and sales to inventory, internal communications, and staying connected with customers and clients, to name a few. These must all be coordinated to ensure the smooth operation of any business, especially a startup. This leaves a business owner two choices: resorting tasks to specialized personnel or spreading a limited number of employees to cover different responsibilities. This is inconvenient in the first case and inefficient in the second case. But there is a third choice - outsourcing to a custom development company! As reported by Statista, this is a common practice, and the app outsourcing segment is projected to reach US$116.00bn in 2022. Custom-developed apps that are tailor-made to a company's specific needs are a great way to get around inefficiencies and obtain advantages. These apps can be extremely powerful tools in the modern business world and, when well designed, give a company the edge over the competition. Custom apps created by software development services have as many advantages as companies have needs that can be fulfilled- and that is probably too many to list in one place! 1. Creation of a competitive product This is where custom-built apps excel! They can be designed and programmed in line with the latest tech specifications by a software development team, such as a dedicated development team, like those mentioned here Dedicated teams can become your entrusted partner and uncover your business potential with technologies according to the exact specifications and individual requirements. Furthermore, every detail of the inner workings of the software will be well known to the development team. Therefore upgrading or adding functions as the business grows is greatly simplified by outsourcing the technical side to a firm that specializes in software development. 2. Efficiency and automation Custom-made apps allow the complete automation of any process that your business requires. No
