in the past. Time for exploration is needed for effective calculator use. If students use calculators to figure out the relationship between the circumferences and diameters of many different round objects, they can get beyond problems of correct division and watch the concept of pi emerge. Doing such work adequately, however, requires that the teacher make the time to allow students to work with their own material until the concept is discovered and internalized. Once such time is set aside the calculator
brought economic divisions; the boundaries were drawn more clearly between the privileged class and the working class. Industrialization finally results in the separation of the classes and the subsequent dialectical tension of production and consumption.

In his moral diptych, Melville questions industrialization by exploring these class divisions and the power relations
Divisions between Women in Jean Rhys’ Wide Sargasso Sea In Jean Rhys’ Wide Sargasso Sea, a sea of “differences” engulfs the women, stirring up prejudice and animosity.

Swept Away The division of people, due to social class and political belief, is clearly a main theme in Lina Wertmuller’s film Swept Away. The film portrayed class and gender conflict brutally, honestly, and graphically, but not without validity. The fact that a woman directed it just adds another level of realism as well as a different perspective. The division between Raphaella, the northern capitalist for whom the system has paid off, and Gennarino, the dedicated, southern Communist, is

Power-seekers have been greatly attracted to scientific pursuits, seeking monetary, life-giving or glory-earning ends.
