El documento habla sobre sensores táctiles y sensores NXT. Brevemente describe que el Colegio Nacional Nicolas Esguera está explorando el uso de estos sensores para proyectos relacionados con la educación y la robótica.
This document discusses the relationship between chemicals and cancer. It explains that chemicals can cause cancer through direct damage to DNA or after being metabolized in the body. Some chemicals are known human carcinogens like asbestos and benzene, while others are possible carcinogens. The risk of developing cancer from chemical exposure depends on factors like the chemical, dose, duration, timing and route of exposure. Occupational exposures can pose high risks if safety precautions are not followed. While cancer clusters are rare, some have been linked to environmental exposures like asbestos. More research is still needed to understand how specific chemicals cause cancer.
Communication is important for the smooth running of a business as it allows for quick decision making, proper planning and coordination, control, and morale building. Good communication systems have qualities like speed, accuracy, secrecy, record keeping, low cost, and convenience. Communication is defined as the exchange of information between two or more people and involves key features like the existence of a message, it being a continuous process, and it can be written, oral, formal or informal. Effective communication principles include clarity, completeness, being concise, consistent, continuous, participatory, objective, having feedback, trust, cooperation, courtesy, and selecting the proper media.
A report is a written statement that provides factual information about events, progress, or business activities. It presents results and interpretations of recorded data. Reports have several purposes, including representing factual information to management, providing reference materials from investigations or surveys, and making recommendations for future use. They also provide useful information to various stakeholders. Key features of reports are that they are written for a specific purpose and audience, and often include unbiased facts and possible recommendations. Essential elements of effective reports are accuracy, clarity, completeness, consistency, simplicity, reliability, appearance, and logical content. Reports are important for conveying information, decision-making, coordination, performance measurement, facilitating improvements, and organizational review and evaluation. Common types of reports include
Este documento describe el origen y las costumbres de Halloween. Se origina de las festividades celtas de Samhain y Calan Gaeaf al final del verano, cuando los antiguos celtas creían que los espíritus podían cruzar entre el mundo de los vivos y los muertos. Una tradición céltica era pedir "truco o trato" a los espíritus para evitar maldiciones, dando origen a esta costumbre de Halloween, y las calabazas talladas se usaban para alejar a los espíritus malvados,

This presentation proposes a pilot program to improve medication adherence for adolescents with chronic asthma through a two-way text messaging system. The program would directly remind adolescents to take their maintenance inhalers and respond to confirm doing so. This would aim to decrease forgetfulness and increase involvement in self-management. The presentation outlines recruitment of adolescents from a community pharmacy, using the pharmacy profiles and returned inhalers to collect data on adherence rates before and after the program. It is expected that this strategy could improve medication adherence and quality of life for adolescents by leveraging their comfort with mobile phones.
The document discusses using news items on a website to guide users based on their interests and expose them to the diversity of a university's programs. It proposes tagging news items with relevant goals and interests so the website can recommend related items to users. This aims to add more value to news content and help users discover new programs and accomplishments based on what they have viewed before. The document provides examples of tagging health care and public interest news items and concludes by emphasizing the need to thoughtfully and consistently define goals and outcomes when personalizing user experiences through content recommendations.
This 3 sentence summary provides the key points about sketches from the document:
Sketches are not meant to demonstrate fine art drawing skills but rather to help understand how elements are arranged spatially in an image by using shapes like circles and blobs instead of stick figures, and annotations must be included to describe aspects of the sketch.
This document provides an introduction to questionnaire design. It discusses important considerations for writing questions, such as ensuring respondents understand the question and are willing and able to answer. It also covers drafting and organizing questionnaires, including ordering questions by topic, starting with easy questions, and testing the questionnaire. The goal is to design questionnaires that yield accurate, truthful answers from respondents.
This document discusses proto-oncogenes, oncogenes, and tumor suppressor genes. Proto-oncogenes are normal genes that regulate cell growth, while oncogenes are mutated proto-oncogenes that contribute to uncontrolled cell growth. The discovery of oncogenes began with Rous sarcoma virus, which was found to contain the viral oncogene v-src. The tumor suppressor gene p53 plays a key role in DNA repair and apoptosis, preventing cancer formation. When mutated, p53 cannot regulate the cell cycle properly, allowing damaged DNA to be passed on and tumors to form.
