      Add a proper video showing how these CD's actually work on person. it will help to impress and get the attention of the audience more.
  • "Science Meets Nature" - not just a meaningless marketing slogan! The BreathEasy System merges ancient, natural healing arts with clinical science to create a genuine breakthrough in stress management: lasting stress relief.

      Pathos: This is pathos, trying to persuade the audience in a pshycological approach.

      I don't agree with your analysis here. Pathos is an appeal to emotion.
  • That's how Breatheasy user Dr. George Szczerbaniuk puts it. The Breatheasy soundtrack contains a pleasant and natural-sounding breathing track (actually created from an ocean wave) actually woven into the fabric of the music. The breathing track gently and gradually slows your breathing from the overly tense and fast way we tend to breathe down to the slow and precise pattern proven to relieve chronic stress and anxiety and even reduce high blood pressure.

  • And stress is not just a rotten feeling that makes us and those around us feel miserable. Chronic and severe stress is a killer. It provokes the release of harmful hormones like cortisol that attack and weaken our natural defenses. Cortisol can even penetrate a mother's womb to harm her unborn child.

      Logos: this is logos, since it is strongly admitting the logical reasons of having stress

      While this is true, I believe the appeal to avoid death is more an appeal to pathos here than in the previously highlighted text.
  • Fully portable: use with any CD or mp3 player (mp3 version now available with every purchase) - start today! User-friendly: carry in an iPod or mp3 player and use discreetly at work, in the doctor's waiting room... anywhere that you can be threatened with stress! Simple: no complicated "yoga breathing" routines. No tedious counting. No mysterious rituals or mumbo-jumbo. Just relax to beautiful music and breathe along with the unique guided breathing soundtrack. Enjoyable: uses real music in a wide range of styles (highest quality commercial recordings in various music styles - no muzak here!) Versatile: Master the method and apply independently to a huge range of circumstances... effortlessly acquire a method with a lifetime payoff! Kind to your heart... and your pocketbook: a mere fraction of the price of other stress management programs, high-tech audio devices and other methods you may have seen advertised... and no recurring costs! Unconditionally guaranteed with a full 6-month, zero-risk trial!

      When introducing their team of Lawyers. They are not just providing the porfessional credentials for the individuals. They also provide some background and other activities they participate in. I believe this is designed to ensure that readers can identify with these people and trust them.

      This article relies on humor and knowledge (pathos and logos, respectively) to get its point across. The author of this site as a whole uses these techniques.

      I found this website that introduces and analyzes the philosophy of the Matrix in details.

      Two comments for this site: 1) Less explaination for jargons, readers must have some knowledge about math, computer science and even logic. Without these knowledge readers might not understand everything it talks about. 2) Add the website design is VERY bad, no pictures, and no visual stuffs. Those make me tired to finish reading it.

  • Better solutions exist, and they aren’t rocket science.3 What we hope to do in this article is help executives, and their organizations, by reminding them of three simple things. First, multitasking is a terrible coping mechanism.
  • The importance of reserving chunks of time for reflection, and the difficulty of doing so, have been themes in management writing for decades

  • For all the benefits of the information technology and communications revolution, it has a well-known dark side: information overload and its close cousin, attention fragmentation.
  • Second, addressing information overload requires enormous self-discipline.
  • Third, since senior executives’ behavior sets the tone for the organization, they have a duty to set a better example.

      It might have been better to have used some sort of highlighting device to make the rules stand out better. Also, punctuating what are not sentences is not really standard form.

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

teachpaperless.blogspot.com/...-help-students-ask-better.html

shared by J.Randolph Radney on 08 Apr 11 - No Cached
  • 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.
