Author Susan Fletcher once wrote, “Shahrazad’s women stood at the door, the women who prepared her for her nights with the Sultan. ‘Go, Marjan,’ Shahrazad said softly. ‘I have the tale here.’ She tapped her temple. ‘I’ll see you in the morning.’ I only hoped that she would” (Fletcher 109). This quote by Fletcher shows how Shahrazad was a brave and confident woman, which is one of the values in the story. The title of the book is Shadow Spinner, by author Susan Fletcher. Shadow Spinner is a historical fiction novel about a girl’s life in Persia. The girl’s name is Marjan, and she gets thrown into a scary world of sneaking outside the harem, telling stories, and getting into trouble. This story is both historically accurate and inaccurate, shown…
Among those inventions that are credited with passing into general practical use are the strut bridge, the automated bobbin winder, the rolling mill, the machine for testing the tensile strength of wire and the lens-grinding machine pictured at right. In the lens-grinding machine, the hand rotation of the grinding wheel operates an angle-gear, which rotates a shaft, turning a geared dish in which sits the glass or crystal to be crushed. A single action rotates both surfaces at a speed ratio determined by the…
Sensory play and sensory devices have been around for a while now, and have been manufactured in order to help create a sensory input to calm and focus children with ADHD, ADD, or autism. Furthermore, are fidget spinners productive or are they just a distraction. Now, I tend to fidget a lot, I press my fingers against my palms, twiddle my thumbs, and sometimes, have a hard time focusing. This is only when i’ve been sitting a desk for a while, and I constantly feel the need to be doing something productive, or I feel like i’m wasting my time. The science behind fidgeting actually isn’t very complex. Said by Roland Rotz, “If something we are engaged in is not interesting enough to sustain our focus, the additional sensory-motor input that is mildly stimulating, interesting, or entertaining allows our brains to become fully engaged and allows us to sustain focus on the primary activity in which we are participating.” For example, If you are fully engaged in watching a baseball game in the bottom of the 9th, I’ll bet you're not fidgeting a lot because you're focused…
You can use wifi to learn about what is taking place in other parts of the world. For example, I can use wifi to look up information about the events occurring in Syria and Iraq with Isis. You can also use wifi for to read and download books including some textbooks. I can access my social studies textbook, Discovering Our Past: A History of the Untied States, online now thanks to wifi. The invention of wifi has improved the way I will continue to learn for the rest of my life. The fact that wifi is educational plays a gigantic role in why I believe it has transformed my life more than any other creation…
Kids all over the states have been introduced to a new thing called fidget spinners. All though fidget spinners are the new craze, they could also lead to problems and benefits. One of the big problems that schools have been dealing with is children playing with their fidget spinners in class. Fidget spinners are supposed to be used for kids to concentrate more on their work, not distract them. Washington Elementary is one of the schools who has experienced their kids playing with fidget spinners.Children in their schools have been trading and even fighting over these toys. Some schools even around the states have banned fidget spinners from their school.…

From the earliest transistor to the remarkably powerful microprocessers, most electronic devices have employed circuits that express data as binary digits, or bits: ones and zeroes represented by the existence or absence of electric charge. Furthermore, the communication between microelectronic devices occursby the binary flow of electric charges.The technologies that emerged from this simple logic have created a multitrillion…
Firstly, it requires only little energy to alter the spin of the electron which in turn, generates spin polarized current for its operation. It retains the data even after the power shutdown which proves that spintronics devices are not volatile. It provides huge storage capabilities. They can easily influence the spin states of the electrons and set it accordingly and this makes the transfer of information quicker. It does not require any specific semiconductor to operate and hence, it can work with all kinds of materials. It consumes negligible power and dissipates less heat during its function. The processing capability and speed of spintronics devices are comparatively enormous. Further, the size of these devices are small, compact and handy. It is greatly resistant to noise and has a long life span. Therefore, Spintronics technology substantiate itself to be more reliable and noteworthy for the future…

(Cons) Are fidget spinners good for a classroom environment, Or are they more of a distraction. Due to classroom reports and other sources, fidget spinners are used by almost all kids even kids without ADD, ADHD, and autism. Schools are starting to ban fidget spinners because they are loud and annoying to other students and teachers. Fidget spinners can also cause conflict between students, schools around the world are giving out reports about students getting in fights over a fidget spinner. Teachers also say that they prove to be a distractions in class, they are loud and students ignore their work just to watch them spin.…
