Lastly she was able to show me the first page of the text. Although she did do a good job of pointing out some main parts of the book she did struggle with a couple others. She wasn’t able to turn some of the pages of the books she would skip three or four at a time. She also had a hard time pointing to the title of the book if it was not in the top of the cover. Lastly the child could not tell me what an author and illustrator did. The next section was conventions of print the child was able to do everything on this list with excellence.

The child is beginning to understand the book and its meaning, however fluency is not yet developed and several semantic mistakes were made. They display a good understanding of a graphonic cue and can do this mostly without prompt from the parent. Visual/pictorial cue can be achieved with prompt from the parent, the child is beginning to gain an understanding of how the pictures can match the text and this with more prompting should become an automatic cue.

  • Helping Students With a Low Socioeconomic Status

    Support from parents has proven to be of extreme importance in the literacy success of a child. This often begins with the simple ritual of “bedtime stories” in the home. Studies show that children who are read to as infants perform better in literacy later in life. From a young age, children begin to understand the workings of the written word if they are exposed to it frequently. Babies who are nowhere near having the mental capacity to read and comprehend a book are still able to “follow along” when their parents or caregivers read to them. These children understand that each segment of writing represents a word and they are even able to recognize when a text is upside-down because they are accustomed to the appearance of writing. This puts the child significantly ahead when the time comes to learn to read.

    The idea was to improve 3d printer with special technology, a single printer, with multi material features, can transform from any 1D strand into 3d shape, 2d surface into 3d shape or morph from one 3d shape into another. The shape of 3d technology is basic mode for 4d. Objet Connex multi-material technology is an 3D printing important part of his work – and is being used extensively in this new process. The Connex multi material technology allows the researchers to program different material properties into each of the various particles of the designed geometry and harnesses the different water-absorbing properties of the materials to active the self-assembly process. With water as its activation energy, this technique promises new possibilities for embedding programmability and simple decision making into non-electronic based materials.

  • A Description Of Measurable Print Characteristics

    611 Words  | 2 Pages

    Determining dot gain, print contrast and ink trap allows us to analyze press sheets and colour bars to find the most favourable running conditions to reproduce a proof for a job. In order to retrieve these print characteristics, multiple density readings are taken with a densitometer from the print control strip to interpret values and use them to asses quality. Dot gain (or tonal value increase) is the increase in the size of a printed dot from plate to press sheet (also in prepress from file/film to print). Dot gain occurs in every printing process and are “most visible in the midtones and deep shadows” (Lawler, 1995), by testing gain and using the dot area equation – a set of adjustment values can be decided upon for how to print the rest of the job. Proofs with high contrast have greater shadow detail - d...
