What Is Transcription Biology?
What Is Transcription Biology?Transcription biology is the study of biological instruments and their functions. If you are interested in learning more about it, then you can simply learn from any professional around who's been into this.The term transcription biology may be unfamiliar to you. This is a combination of two words which mean something related to processes that involve the analysis of biological materials. For example, a transcriptionist is someone who is involved in transcribing or recording information by using an instrument such as a microchip, or something else. Generally speaking, these instruments are used for capturing or reproducing information, but they have evolved further into the field of transcriptions.After the first mention of the term, a transcriptionist will only continue to use the phrase 'transcription.' But transcription is the process of recording information about organisms (or biological materials), which is vital to the success of a researcher. The most common instrument is a microscope, which is used to look at cells and tissues; or it may be a microchip, which is a machine that contains a camera and a microphone; and a thermocycler, which is an instrument used to monitor cell temperatures.In this type of research, transcriptionists are the one who is responsible for recording data. That is why they will help determine the source of the data, and what is going on. Sometimes, they may also be used to develop new forms of medical diagnoses. They also perform laboratory work, as well as extract DNA from tissue cultures.There are many other reasons why transcriptionists would want to become professionals. Often, they are required to perform high-level health tests that might be done in hospitals or other scientific facilities. They are needed to help those who conduct research in the laboratory, which might be performed in laboratories all over the world. This means that there is a big demand for them, so that they can readily f ind work.Some experts also believe that transcription biology can help students and doctors who perform specialized operations such as those that involve animals. In some cases, they may even help train medical personnel, which is not only important to medical science, but is also a necessity to many industries. Of course, these people will need to obtain their certification if they wish to pursue careers that require them to work with animals or living humans.As you can see, this field is very closely related to the life sciences. You will need to know more about the things that you should learn before taking up this career, and most importantly, get your certification before you start.

Can Changing Your Motivation Change Your Progress
Can Changing Your Motivation Change Your Progress Why do you want to learn English?Thats probably the most common, yet most important question you will ever be asked with regards to learning any language.When I ask students of LOI, the most common answers I get are: Im learning for work, for travel, for a test,etc. or followed by: Ive been learning for years. Theres always a sense of obligation, and have-tos.Now thats fair enough, and its important to have a specific goal in mind, and to take steps towards that goal. However, think about when you for example start a diet with the thought of: I HAVE TO lose weight. Just the sound of it is a heavy burden. Why not replace that thought with: I want to feel better. I want to be less stressed, and I want to be more confident. Doesnt that just sound more pleasant even to say to yourself?We can apply the same principle to learning English. Instead of: I HAVE TO learn English for this, that and the other reason. why not replace it with: I want to learn English to communicate, to put my tho ughts into someone elses head in a new way. I want to learn more about myself, and other people.Learning any language is a journey, so why not enjoy it? If youve been learning for years, and feel youve hit a language plateau, take a good look at why youre learning, and perhaps broaden your motivations.
How can I give detailed feedback with the Win-10 Multi-Clipboard
How can I give detailed feedback with the Win-10 Multi-Clipboard For corrective feedback on writing to be effective, it must be consistent, frequent, immediate, and explicit. Thats difficult for a teacher to achieve with 120+ writing assignments piling up and lessons to plan. Difficult, but not impossible. Free grammar checker How can I give detailed feedback? Wouldnt it be great if, instead of having to use terse correction codes on common ESL errors, you had a list of detailed grammar explanations in one place and you could insert them lickety-split into a students text with the click of your mouse? The recent Windows 10 update makes giving detailed feedback a little faster. Heres what an ESL teacher can get after they activate the multi-clip clipboard. With a clipboard like this, you can insert web addresses, grammar rules, even images into your students essays and compositions. To access it, you will have to activate it. Step 1: Press the Windows key + V Instead of pressing CTRL + V or right-clicking your mouse to access the paste command, use the Windows icon key + V. The first time you do this, Windows 10 will show you this pop-up box. Step 2: Click Turn on So, you have to activate it. Click the Turn on button to activate your mult-clip clipboard. It will say that your clipboard is empty. Step 3: start adding items Now, start copying your favorite grammar rules and web URLS from a Word document or from the Virtual Writing Tutor Grammar Checker. It might be a good idea to keep a DOCX file of rules and explanations so that you can populate your clipboard quickly for the next time the writing assignments start piling up. An example of some corrective feedback messages collected into a Word DOC file Step 4: start correcting Once you have populated your clipboard with the grammar rules you want, you can start correcting. Open a Word DOC that a student has submitted. When you find an error that you want to comment on, press WIN + V and scroll to the feedback message you want to add to a comment.

Step 5: Use the VWT grammar checker Alternatively, you could ask students to use the Virtual Writing Tutor grammar checker. Its free and it gives corrective feedback on grammar errors in seconds. Hey! It is worth mentioning. You seem interested in giving fast, explicit, frequent feedback on errors, so I thought I should at least let you know about the best grammar checker for ESL. But why send your students to the Virtual Writing Tutor if you can add a grammar checker to your own blog or Moodle website? The steps for adding a grammar checker to your own website are here. Commenting on student writing Instead of providing explicit feedback on grammatical errors, you may want to comment on other aspects of student writing. If so, check out my blog post on how to comment on student writing. It turns out that the most common commenting practices used by teachers fall short of the ideal in predictable ways, but there is an easy fix. Please follow and like us:

Learning a Language It Takes a Village
Learning a Language It Takes a Village We live in an age of being connected. The number of smartphone users connected to the internet is expected to reach 6.1 Billion in the next 5 years. By this point in time, around 70% of the worlds population will have access to the internet (and the vast majority of human knowledge) in their pocket. This constant connection is incredibly useful. From buying groceries, looking up a quick fact, getting directions, or speaking to someone on the other side of the world, this connectedness is convenient. The convenience of online solutions to lifes problems necessarily touch language learning as well. Learning a language on your own can be a rewarding hobby, and there are plenty of tools to help you along. From learning vocabulary on Memrise to watching video lessons on Youtube, to using Anki flashcards and reading blogs about language education, the internet is a great place to find resources. Even italki has advice for how to move your language learning forward by yourself. Unfortunately, there is often a temptation to limit ones education to just these solitary activities. It is understandable why: we like activities in which we can easily see our progress. Memorizing a hundred words using flashcards is a rewarding activity. It creates the experience of progress. The experience of memorization gives us immediate feedback, and because of this it is easy to get caught-up in the exercises, and forget that language is inherently a social activity. In fact, there are theories of language development that explain the evolution of language as a way to expand our social groups. (This theory also thinks of language as a form of grooming, as seen ape societies.) Though it is possible, and often makes sense to practice individual language skills alone (for example, building up vocabulary), it is through integration of these individual skills that we get the practice which will help us approach fluency. Moreover, the rewards of learning are not the numbers of memorized words or the efficiency with which you construct sentences. The fundamental reward of speaking a foreign language is gaining perspective, understanding someone from a different culture and world, and being understood by them. Experiencing the social rewards of the work you are doing by learning a foreign language will encourage you to keep going. That magical moment of understanding and being understood makes the process of studying and practicing worthwhile. As we enter the holiday season, a time many countries and societies celebrate togetherness, family, and connection to their communities, we hope you take the opportunity to practice your language skills, and share your excitement about learning languages with those close to you, perhaps even by speaking to them in their own languages! Dont get lost in solo practice, but reward yourself and connect with others by sharing the wonder and excitement of language learning.

Debate of the week University funding cuts
Debate of the week University funding cuts As higher education funding dominated the news agenda during the first decade of the millennium, so it does at the start of the next decade. Lord Mandleson has announced a shocking spending cut of 533m for universities in England, casting yet more despair amongst young people already wondering what their future will consist of in these difficult times. The budget for England's universities will be slashed from 7.81bn in 2010 to 7.29bn in 2011. That means far less money for universities to spend on the valuable resources, especially lecturers and tutors, that help young people to learn, grow and develop during their time at university. The timing of this funding cut announcement is particularly perplexing. With the economy in recession, job prospects for school leavers are worrying low. Earlier this month, the number of 16 to 24-year-olds out of work in the UK increased to 952,000 for the three months to October 2009, the highest figure since records began in 1992. Now, it seems like educational prospects are being reduced as well. Competition for those remaining jobs is stiffer than ever and young people need to be as prepared and educated as they can be in order to get a chance at a career. Higher education is often they way to grab that chance. But in order to be fully effective, universities need to be properly funded and supported by government - and industry - so that they have everything they can in order to teach and guide young people properly. Clearly, funding cuts go against this basic principle. At First Tutors we are passionate about education and overwhelmingly positive about the opportunities that it can afford young people. We should support our universities and make education funding a priority. Hopefully, the government will choose to do so again as soon as they can.
5 Part-Time Jobs You Never Considered
5 Part-Time Jobs You Never Considered UBER drivers can range in age.Image via thestar.com UBER allows you to work on your own time with no commitment or deadlines. Drivers choose what times and what days they want to work. The ability to set your own schedule is crucial for college students. Driver requirements oblige applicants to be at least 21, own a 2000 car or newer, and pass a background check. Depending on the city, the UBER car may have to be at least a 2005 model. In addition, all drivers are required to have some form of insurance. Most commercial driving jobs necessitate their drivers to get a Commercial Driverâs License. Getting a CDL means taking classes that cost anywhere from $100-$300+. A college student would not be able to afford such a program. With UBER, this is not the case. Driving for UBER is a cheap, flexible option to make money while in school. The only drawbacks are the age requirement and whether or not you have a car. Independent Sales Consultant Freelancing for companies is an attractive option for working in college. Freelancing means you are self-employed and temporarily work for a business. If you are into retail, but do not want to sit behind a register or fold clothes all day, this is the job for you. Securing a client is easy because you already self-provide computer access and transportation. Businesses typically offer commission between 10 and 25 percent, which is better than minimum wage for serving food to your classmates. Like the social media assistant, potential workers will need experience with technology and communications. You must also be able to deal with frequent rejection. Despite being repeatedly turned down, sales consultants should always be kind, enthusiastic, polite, and motivated. The job is harder than it looks. The company Vector Marketing offers students sales jobs with flexible schedules. Future workers have to complete a three-day training session prior to starting. However, it is important to take into consideration that not all companies provide sales jobs compatible with college students. Do some research before applying. Fitness Instructor All campuses have a gym open to students, so why not work and exercise at the same time? If you already visit the gym regularly and take fitness classes, you can do the same thing, just earning some cash in return. Since the job is through the school, the hours are arranged around your class schedule. Pay is usually around $10-$15, well above minimum wage. The only catch is that fitness instructors have to be certified. Depending on the program you participate in, becoming certified can become expensive. Look up and compare different programs before joining. Instructors can teach all sorts of classes covering exercises like aerobics, yoga, or cycling.Image via fityaf.com Once you are good to go, instructors can also teach private classes, earning you double the money. Not only is the job flexible and potentially high paying, you are getting in better shape every time you work. Athletic Team Manager An interest in sports can open the door for becoming a student assistant or manager for your collegeâs football, basketball, or soccer team. The options are endless. Your week typically means spending 20-40 hours with the sports program you work for. Managers attend all practices and games, proving to be vital to the teamâs function. Jobs range from refereeing during practice, clock keeping, and recording playersâ stats. Luckily, most teams have more than one manager so the tasks are split up. Even during the off-season, student managers play a role in recruitment. They also help condition the existing players to keep them in shape. It really is a year-round job. Depending on the college you attend, managing may be only voluntary. Do some research to find out how much the wage is.
