Practice "interrogating" key words as well as term of conclusion (therefore), term of explanation (for), terms of purpose or result (so that, in order that, that, as a result), terms of contrast (but, yet), expressions of time (including then; until, after) and terms of comparison (like, as). You will be amazed at how your Teacher, the Holy Spirit, will illuminate your understanding, a spiritual blessing that will grow the more you practice! Be diligent!

  • Venn Diagrams
    VENN DIAGRAMS What is it? A Venn diagram or set diagram is a diagram that shows relationships among sets of numbers, information or concepts. In around 1880, John Venn introduced the world to the idea of Venn diagrams. Since then they have been used to teach elementary set theory in mathematics, statistics, linguistics and computer science. Using Venn diagrams for reading and in the English classroom allows students to explore relations among ideas. They can use Venn diagrams to organize information according to similarities and differences. Any level of reader can use a Venn diagram to process their thinking around a text. Venn diagrams are useful for comparing and contrasting ideas and are an excellent way to clearly show an overlap of ideas in texts. Why is it important? There is huge cognitive benefit in examining the similarities and differences among concepts. In such as activities, young children search for patterns to make connections between new information and their own background knowledge and therefore process thoughts more deeply (Dreher & Gray, 2009). Using Venn Diagrams can help students become more active in the reading process because they are being asked to analyse a text in a focused manner. As they organise their responses into the chart, they link information across sentences, paragraphs and the whole text. Venn Diagrams can also be useful when asking students to compare and contrast ideas represented in different texts. This focus helps them interpret information in relation to a broader context. For example, using a Venn Diagram to compare the ideas in two texts that have been written from different perspectives, periods of history or fields of study can lead students to deeper understanding of both texts.

  • Perceptions of Providence: Doing One’S Duty in Victorian England
    Perceptions of Providence: Doing one’s duty in Victorian England Diane Barbara Sylvester Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences The University of Sydney A thesis submitted in fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. June 2017 Statement of originality This is to certify that to the best of my knowledge, the content of this thesis is my own work. This thesis has not been submitted for any degree or other purposes. I certify that the intellectual content of this thesis is the product of my own work and that all the assistance received in preparing this thesis and sources have been acknowledged. ____________________ Diane Barbara Sylvester i Abstract Intellectual history responds to that most difficult question—‘What were they thinking?’ Intellectual historians who concern themselves with the moral thinking of Victorians often view that thinking through a political lens, focussing on moral norms that were broadly accepted, or contested, rather than the moral thinking of particular Victorians as individuals—each with their own assumptions, sensibilities and beliefs. In this thesis, I interrogate the work of nine individual Victorians to recover their moralities, and discover how they decided what is the right, and what is the wrong, thing to do. My selected protagonists contributed variously to Victorian intellectual life—George Eliot, Elizabeth Gaskell and Charles Dickens, as novelists; Matthew Arnold, John Henry Newman and Charles Haddon Spurgeon, as participants in the public discussion of Christian belief; and William Whewell, John Stuart Mill and Thomas Hill Green, as moral philosophers. I make comparisons between my protagonists’ moralities, but it is not my aim to generalise from them and, by a process of extrapolation, define a ‘Victorian’ morality.

It is not substantially the same as any that I have submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for a degree or diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. I further state that no substantial part of my thesis has already been submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for any such degree, diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. It does not exceed the prescribed word limit for the History and Philosophy of Science Degree Committee. Abstract Victorian Egyptology and the Making of a Colonial Field Science, 1850-1906 Meira Gold This dissertation provides a new account of the origins of archaeological fieldwork in the Nile Delta. It considers how practitioners from diverse disciplinary backgrounds circulated knowledge about the built environment of pharaonic ruins: monuments, architecture, burials, and soil mounds that remained in situ. I trace the development of Egyptology from an activity that could be practiced long-distance through a network of informants to one that required first-hand field experience.

FIFTY years ago, on Sunday evening, August 5th, 1906, I first gave an address in the open air. I can well remember the occasion, and can still picture the scene in my mind. I stood upon a chair just outside the door of Hillsborough National Schools, Sheffield. My knees felt weak, my tongue was dry, and my heart beat violently. I t was, I think, the very first occasion I had spoken a Christian message.

  • John Venn Born: Hull, England 1834 Died: Cambridge 1923
    Mathematician of the week John Venn Born: Hull, England 1834 Died: Cambridge 1923 John Venn was a British mathematician, philosopher and clergyman. His father was also a revered in Hull. John was very strictly brought up, and there was never any thought other than that he would follow the family tradition into the priesthood. He was the eight generation to attend Cambridge. After graduating he ordained as a priest but was frequently torn by his interest in philosophy as he felt his questioning might test the Anglican beliefs he was supposed to represent. Finally he resigned and went back to teach at of Gonville and Caius college in Cambridge. His son went on to become the president of Queen’s college, Cambridge. Venn’s most important work was in logic and probability. In his book Symbolic logic he introduced his now famous Venn Diagram. This showed how a number of closed curves (circles) could be used to represent sets with something in common. Venn had other skills and interests too, including a rare skill in building machines. He used his skill to build a machine for bowling cricket balls which was so good that when the Australian Cricket team visited Cambridge in 1909, Venn's machine clean bowled one of its top stars four times. After his death his son wrote the following description of him. “Of spare build, he was throughout his life a fine walker and mountain climber, a keen botanist, and an excellent talker and linguist”. As a memorial to Venn a stained glass window has been mounted in the hall of Gonville and Caius College.

  • George Boole, John Venn and CS Peirce
    Origins of Boolean Algebra in the Logic of Classes: George Boole, John Venn and C. S. Peirce Janet Heine Barnett∗ 9 March 2013 1 Introduction On virtually the same day in 1847, two major new works on logic were published by prominent British mathematicians. Augustus De Morgan (1806{1871) opened his Formal Logic with the following description of what is known today as `logical validity' [6, p. 1]: The first notion which a reader can form of Logic is by viewing it as the examination of that part of reasoning which depends upon the manner in which inferences are formed, and the investigation of general maxims and rules for constructing arguments, so that the conclusion may contain no inaccuracy which was not previously asserted in the premises. It has so far nothing to do with the truth of the facts, opinions, or presump- tions, from which an inference is derived; but simply takes care that the inference shall certainly be true, if the premises be true. Whether the premises be true or false, is not a question of logic, but of morals, philosophy, history, or any other knowledge to which their subject-matter belongs: the question of logic is, does the conclusion certainly follow if the premises be true? The second of these new nineteenth century works on logic was The Mathematical Analysis of Logic by George Boole (1815{1864). Like De Morgan, Boole sought to stretch the boundaries of traditional syllogistic1 logic by developing a general method for representing and manipulating all logically valid inferences or, as DeMorgan described it to Boole in a letter dated 28 November 1847, to develop `mechanical modes of making transitions, with a notation which represents our head work' [22, p.

George I was succeeded by his grandson George II (1727-60) during whose reign there was another Jacobite invasion in 1745. Offences punishable by death during hi reign were picking pockets, being in the company of gypsies, burning a hayrick or stealing sheep.
