    The Combray Section of Marcel Proust's Swann's Way The "Combray" section of Marcel Proust's Swann's Way is an extended meditation on an idyllic past. The book begins, though, not with recollections of Combray, but with a description of the narrator's half-asleep state, a state of consciousness where he does not know where, or even who, he is.

    Conic sections are used all over the world. Conic sections are used in things such as bridges, roller coasters, stadiums, and other objects. A conic section is the intersection of a plane with a cone. The changes in the angle of the intersection produce a circle, ellipse, parabola, and hyperbola. All the types of conic sections can be identified using the general form equation. The general form equation is x2+Bxy+Cy2+Dx+Ey+F=0. Using the general form equation can help identify each type of conic

  • Questioning Strategies to Improve Understanding of Conic Sections in Math Class

    2253 Words  | 5 Pages

    Introduction I chose to focus on how the use of questioning strategies in a whole class setting improves student understanding of conic sections because I struggle with using open-ended questioning. I see how “yes” and “no” questions do not usually cause students to think, since the answer to the question is often in the question.

C is the only section that cannot be clearly mapped out into sub-sections, and is better not partitioned. The third A returns to
