Hearing Disorders in Children With Fetal Alcohol Syndrome: Findings From Case Reports - 0 views

  •  
    Fourteen children with the fetal alcohol syndrome were evaluated by standard audiologic procedures. Thirteen of the 14 children had childhood histories of hearing disorders. All 13 of these children (93%) had clinically significant histories of bilateral recurrent serous otitis media (ie, they were otitis prone), and at least four children (29%) had bilateral sensorineural hearing losses in addition to being otitis prone. Many of the children with recurrent serous otitis media required repeated myringotomies with placement of ventilation tubes, and those with sensorineural hearing losses required sound amplification during childhood. Recurrent respiratory infections (secondary to immune deficiencies) and eustachian tube dysfunction (secondary to embryonic malformations of the first and second branchial arches) are discussed as possible etiologic factors in the presence of the recurrent serous otitis media. An alcohol-induced neuroectoderm syndrome and alcohol ototoxicity are discussed as possible etiologic factors in the occurrence of sensorineural hearing loss. The findings suggest that hearing disorders are a heretofore unrecognized characteristic of the fetal alcohol syndrome. Such hearing disorders may contribute to the speech and language and learning difficulties seen in children with fetal alcohol syndrome. The present study also provided confirmatory evidence of visual, health, and speech and language disorders in

Language Harmonization at Creative Commons - Creative Commons - 0 views

  • One of the most important values at Creative Commons is the usability of our tools. We strive to make all of our tools human-readable, often bridging dissonant vocabularies and frameworks to ensure our tools are compatible and understandable the world over. The challenge of localization is balancing legally sound terminology with culturally palatable translations. Sometimes the terms in which lawyers and courts communicate are unfamiliar or alienating to users outside of the legal profession. Moreover, even within the legal field, there can be a range of opinions about which terms are most appropriate.

      This box of info is an appeal to emotions. Not only is it stating what the #1 killer of women is, but it is listing what women are. Grandmothers, mothers, wives, daughters and sisters. This takes the reader from thinking about a woman in general to making the reader think of their own mother, sister, wife, daughter or grandmother.
    • Antonia Gujinovic
       
      The three short words "Make Death Wait" are very impact-full. Just the name of the campaign appeals to the emotions before even knowing what the campaign is about. We all know death is inevitable and that for some it happens sooner than it should. So the thought of making something inevitable wait gives hope.

      Too many spaces between these words; takes away from credibility.
  • The Peace River coalfield, which extends for 400 km through the northeast part of British Columbia, was first discovered in 1793. Due to lack of infrastructure, mining in the early days was limited to small operations serving local needs. The expansion of steel production in the mid-1960's, led by the Japanese steel mills, stimulated exploration for metallurgical (coking) coal on a global scale. Within ten years the majority of the land within the Peace River coalfield with coal mining potential had been acquired and explored by various mining and oil companies.

  • Peace River Coal Inc., a producer of high-quality metallurgical coal for export, from Canada is jointly owned by Anglo American plc, Hillsborough Resources Ltd., and NEMI Northern Energy and Mining Inc. Anglo American holds a 74% interest in Peace River Coal. Peace River Coal owns substantial coal properties in the Peace River region of northeast British Columbia.

      It appears one of the main goals through this website is to explain and demonstrate who Peace River Coal's business afilliates are. The names are mentioned a number of times through the website and showing the reader that these names are present seems to be a large part of the website's focus.

      Credibility could be improved by re-wording to avoid saying 'and other partners', because it almost sounds like something is being hidden from the reader with that language, even if nothing is. It takes away slightly from Ethos.

TeachPaperless: 10 Ways to Help Students Ask Better Questions - 1 views

  • The points students bring up are thought-provoking. However, I'm most impressed by the questions they ask one another. They clarify and ask follow-up questions. They make inferences. They ask connecting questions and critical thinking questions. It's a messy process, but it's beautiful messy. It's art.
  • As long as a question is respectful, I want students to question their world. This applies to analyzing mathematical processes, thinking through social issues, making sense out of a text or analyzing the natural world for cause and effect.
  • I require students to ask questions before, during and after reading.
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • Three times a week, we do inquiry days, where students begin with their own question in either social studies or science and they research it, summarize it and then ask further questions. While my initial goal involved teaching bias, loaded language and summarization, I soon realized that students were growing the most in their ability to ask critical thinking questions.
  • Feedback on questions: I highlight their questions in Google Docs and leave comments on their blogs with very specific feedback.
  • Sometimes I'll ask a really lame question and then say, "Someone tell my why that question sucked?" or I'll ask a deeper question and say, "Why was that a hard question to answer?" The goal is to get them to see deeper questions and to also think about why a question is deep or shallow.
  • Some students have a really hard time with questioning strategies.
  • I teach students about inquiry, clarifying, critical thinking and inference questioning.
  • Students sometimes ask me questions. Other times they ask partners or small group questions. Still other times they ask the questions to the whole class.
  • Technology allows students to take their time in crafting a question while having access to the questions of their peers.
