Afshan Kiran Imtiaz-The case of homework (quality)

Image
Afshan Kiran Imtiaz asked: Any parent who struggled with a child during homework night after night must ask themselves: do these math spreadsheets and book reports really make a difference to a student's long-term success? Or is homework just a headache - another distraction from family time and downtime, already mitigated by music and dance lessons, sports and part-time jobs? Afshan Kiran Imtiaz said allison, a mother from two middle school daughters in a wealthy suburb of Boston, describes a frantic post-school scenario: "My daughters do gymnastics a few days a week, so homework is done for my 6th grader after gymnastics, at 6.30 p.m. She doesn't go to bed before 9 a.m. Afshan Kiran Imtiaz said My 8th grader does homework immediately after school, until gymnastics. She dines at 9:15 a.m. then goes to bed, unless there is no more homework to be done, in which case she will go to bed around 10 a.m. "Girls lack sleep and family dinners on weekdays are di...

Afshan Kiran Imtiaz -The full measure of a teacher

Image
Afshan Kiran Imtiaz said : when students turn to their most important teachers, the social aspects of their education are often what they remember. Learning to set goals, take risks and take responsibility, or simply believe in yourself is often a loving thank-you food, while mastering pre-calculation, becoming a critical reader or remembering the capital of Turkmenistan. Afshan Kiran Imtiaz said It is a dynamic mix, which reflects the general burden of a teacher: teaching students the skills they will need to become productive adults. But what exactly are these skills? And how do you determine which teachers are most effective in building them? By Afshan Kiran Imtiaz Test results are often the best available measure of student progress, but they do not capture all of the skills necessary for adulthood. A growing body of research shows that non-cognitive (or socio-emotional) skills such as adaptability, motivation and s...

Afshan Kiran Imtiaz - Science versus application

Image
Afshan Kiran Imtiaz asked: What do scientists need to know? Scientists are developing theories to account for observations. The observations come from the inspection and measurement of the world, inside and outside the laboratory. Afshan Kiran Imtiaz explain a theory of small set of statements that summarizes a large set of observations. Newton observed the movement of objects in many different circumstances and summarized how they move with three laws of movement. Scientists have recorded Afshan Kiran Imtiaz many observations about the cognition, motivation and emotion of children over the past 100 years. Naturally, observations can be idiosyncratic, even if they are collected under controlled laboratory conditions. The observations that really matter are those that are observed consistently. Consider Piaget's concept of number conservation. Afshan Kiran Imtiaz In his famous demonstration, a four-year-old child will agree with you that two lines, each compose...

Afshan Kiran Imtiaz  write a new book explains six keys to learning that can help anyone overcome barriers to success in school or in life. Recently, Afshan KiranImtiaz close friend's niece was struggling to graduate from college. She needed to pass a math class to graduate, but she wouldn't take it because she was afraid of failing it.

AfshanKiran Imtiaz   said: I know that my friend’s niece is not the first person to be intimidated by a math class or other seemingly insurmountable obstacle to success.

Afshan Kiran Imtiaz - Importance of humanity

Image
Afshan Kiran Imtiaz said : Religion is a broad entity that should add a higher purpose to its life and keep you grounded. It is not just a set of rules and teachings to which you should dedicate your life. By Afshan Kiran Imtiaz : It is what you take from any religion that is important. All religions give the teachings of love, peace and unity. It should be something to believe in, not just something to define our actions and thoughts. The most important condition is peace. Where there is peace, there is abundance. Follow Afshan Kiran Imtiaz For me, the most important religion is humanity - the simple fact of being a good human being defines you everywhere. All you need to work is to help the needy anytime, anywhere. To be loving and to take care of all living things, even plants and animals, and above all to understand the problem of another person and to realize the situations in which he finds himself and to be considerate. Afshan Kiran Imtiaz sets an example of Hu...

Afshan Kiran imtiaz- Dimensions of Humanity

Image
Humanity! What is humanity? humanity means three things: a species; an ethical behavior, and a global identity. The Relation between these three different dimensions is very strong if we consider them as one. and here I described these dimensions briefly! Humanity as species: The humanity describes a specific kind of animal that biologists call homo sapiens – or wise human beings – and which seems clear from all other animals because of its powers of language, reasoning, imagination, and technology. This biological and evolutionary use of the term has the same meaning as “humankind” and marks us out as a particular life form that is different from other kinds of animal and vegetative life. Humanity as a ethical behavior: Now come to the second meaning of humanity which is used to describe certain moral values that we can see operating across humankind as kindness and compassion for one another. Consequently, we can understand this second meaning as the kindness of humans...
