Farmacognosia

TEMA 1: INTRODUCCION A LA FARMACOGNOSIA FARMACOGNOSIA: Es la ciencia que se ocupa del conocimiento de las materias primas de origen biológico que el farmaceutico o la industria farmacéutica emplean para la preparación de medicamentos. La Farmacognosia es la ciencia farmacéutica que se ocupa del estudio de las drogas y las sustancias medicamentosas de origen natural: bien sea vegetal, microbiano (hongos, bacterias) o animal. Es la ciencia encargada del estudio de las fuentes naturales de materia prima de interés farmacéutico, estudiando tanto sustancias con propiedades terapéuticas como sustancias tóxicas, excipientes u otras sustancias de interés farmacéutico, aunque su uso sea básicamente tecnológico y no terapéutico. OBJETIVOS DE LA FARMACOGNOSIA: 1. Determinar el origen sistemático, la especie, de la que procede la droga. 2. Establecer las características morfoanatómicas y organolépticas, que permitan la caracterización de la droga. 3. Investigar los métodos óptimos de producción de la droga: en caso de droga vegetal: cultivo, mejora, recolección, conservación, extracción de principios activos (PP.AA.). 4. Establecer la composición química de la droga, tanto cuali- como cuantitativa. 5. Obtener extractos que contengan los PP.AA. 6. Controlar la calidad de las drogas. 7. Establecer las propiedades farmacológicas de las drogas (Actividad). 8. Investigar nuevos PP.AA. que puedan constituir un punto de partida para el diseño de nuevos fármacos CONCEPTOS En un sentido amplio, la Farmacognosia abarca el conocimiento de la historia, distribución, cultivo, recolección, selección, preparación, comercio, identificación, evaluación, preservación, y uso de drogas y sustancias de importancia económica que afectan la salud del hombre y otros animales. En un sentido restringido, la definición de Farmacognosia abarca el particular conocimiento de los métodos de identificación y evaluación de drogas naturales. Farmacognosia Especial: estudia las drogas naturales agrupándolas de acuerdo al tipo de componente en: gomas, mucílagos, pectinas, glicósidos cardiotónicos, saponinas, flavonoides, cumarinas, cianogenéticos, resinas, aceites esenciales, alcaloides, y otros. Planta medicinal: todo vegetal que contiene en uno o más de sus órganos sustancias que pueden ser utilizadas con fines terapéuticos o preventivos o que son precursores de hemisíntesis quimiofarmacéutica. Droga: toda sustancia natural o sintética que tiene propiedades terapéuticas o medicinales y que se utiliza en la elaboración de medicamentos. La palabra droga procede del vocablo holandés “droogen” que significa secar, o droog cuyo significado es sustancia seca. Droga vegetal: parte de la planta que contiene el principio activo y que se utiliza en terapéutica. Se denomina así a las plantas o sus partes enteras, molidas o pulverizadas (flores, frutos, semillas, tubérculos, cortezas, otras partes) frescas o secas, así como los jugos, gomas, látex, aceites esenciales o fijos y otros componentes similares, que se emplean puras o mezcladas en la elaboración de medicamentos. (FA 7 ed.) Droga cruda: drogas vegetales consistentes en sustancias naturales que no han sufrido otro proceso que la recolección y secado. Sustancias naturales: sustancias encontradas en la naturaleza y que comprenden plantas totales o sus partes anatómicas, jugos, secreciones y otros constituyentes vegetales; animales completos o sus partes anatómicas, glándulas u otros órganos, y otros constituyentes animales que no han sufrido cambios en la estructura molecular originaria. Preparado de droga vegetal: son preparados obtenidos a partir de la droga vegetal, que fueron sometidas a ciertos tratamientos como molienda, extracción, fraccionamiento, purificación (entre otros). Principio Activo: sustancia química con actividad farmacológica y que genera el uso terapéutico de la droga. Toda sustancia química o mezcla de sustancias relacionadas, de origen natural o sintético, que poseyendo un efecto farmacológico específico, se emplea en medicina humana (FA, 7 ed). Una droga puede contener varios PP.AA. Asi mismo puede contener PP.AA. antagónicos (es decir, con efectos contrarios) o PP.AA. sinérgicos (cuyo efecto al ser administrados conjuntamente se potencia). Fármaco: todo compuesto que independientemente de su origen, grado de preparación y elaboración, puede tener utilidad para prevenir, curar, mitigar o diagnosticar enfermedades. Medicamento: Producto que tras sufrir manipulaciones con la aplicación de técnicas adecuadas y dándole una determinada forma farmacéutica y dosificación correcta, está preparado para su administración a un organismo enfermo. Toda preparación o producto farmacéutico empleado para la prevención, diagnóstico y/o tratamiento de una enfermedad o estado patológico, o para modificar sistemas fisiológicos en beneficio de la persona a quien se le administra (FA. 7 ed.). Farmacopea: es el texto oficial que codifica los principios activos, excipientes y productos farmacéuticos y contiene las especificaciones que estos deben cumplir para demostrar su calidad y resguardar la salud de la población. La expresión “oficial” refiere o significa “de la Farmacopea” y se refiere a cualquier título, sustancia, preparación o ensayo incluido en las monografías y capítulos. - Drogas vegetales oficiales: Son aquellas especies vegetales cuya monografía se encuentra - codificadas en Farmacopeas. Drogas vegetales no oficiales: Son aquellas especies vegetales que no se encuentran codificadas en Farmacopeas PREPARACIÓN DE DROGAS VEGETALES PARA EL MERCADO COMERCIAL Obtención a partir de: Plantas silvestres o cultivadas. La OMS (2003) ha recomendado cultivar y recolectar las plantas medicinales siguiendo protocolos llamados “de buenas prácticas agrícolas y de recolección” (BPAR). FARMACOERGASIA: Se encarga del estudio del cultivo, recolección, secado y almacenamiento de las plantas. CULTIVO DE PLANTAS MEDICINALES, ESTUDIOS PREVIOS: 1.

Proceder a la selección y mejora del material a cultivar. 3. Determinar los procedimientos de mecanización de los cultivos que facilitarán el proceso de recolección. VENTAJAS DEL CULTIVO DE PLANTAS MEDICINALES: • Permite obtener materia prima abundante, homogénea y de alta calidad, mediante cultivo de especies seleccionadas. • Permite controlar algunas de las variables que pueden afectar a la producción. • Permite obtener plantas medicinales en igual estadio de desarrollo, lo que facilitará las labores de recolección y secado. FACTORES IMPLICADOS EN LA PRODUCCIÓN DE PLANTAS MEDICINALES Factores climáticos y atmosféricos Factores edáficos • Temperatura • Humedad • Radiación solar • Régimen de vientos • Caracteristicas físicas • Caracteristicas quimicas Factores topográficos OTROS FACTORES IMPLICADOS EN EL CONTENIDO DE PRINCIPIOS ACTIVOS Factores intrínsecos • Ontogenia • Herencia (Razas químicas o quimiodemos: Población de plantas químicamente diferentes dentro de una misma especie, es decir, se trata de plantas de una misma especie con características morfológicas similares (fenotipos similares) pero que tienen una composición química distinta (genotipos distintos), esto da lugar a diferencias en su composición química.) REGLAS GENERALES PARA LA RECOLECCIÓN DE DROGAS VEGETALES 1. Raíces y Rizomas, en fase de reposo vegetativo. 2. Hojas, en época de floración. 3. Cortezas, en primavera. 4. Flores, antes o durante la polinización. 5. Frutos, antes o después de la maduración. 6. Semillas, cuando están maduras pero antes de la dehiscencia. 7. Gomas, resinas, látex, en tiempo seco. CONSERVACIÓN DE DROGAS VEGETALES Inmediatamente después de la recolección de las plantas, se ve alterado su equilibrio metabólico y suceden reacciones y fenómenos que degradan la droga. Alteraciones por causas internas: Reacciones enzimáticas Hidrólisis de glúcidos, ésteres; oxidaciones; condensaciones; polimerizaciones; reacciones entre componentes de la planta. DESECADO 1. A temperatura ambiente - Desecado al sol - Desecado a la sombra 2. Con calor artificial - En estufas o armarios de desecación - A contracorriente - En estufas a vacío Tener en cuenta: - Temperatura → Flores y hojas: 20-30 °C → Cortezas, leños y raíces: 30-65 °C. - La ventilación tiene que ser forzada, la droga colocada en estanterías sobre tejido metálico, separadas 10-15 cm.

Biology Test Review Q2 before exams

Homeostasis Test Review Name: KEY Look at the graph above and answer the following: What is a behavioral explanation for the change in temperature between 7am and 9am? Exercising (anything someone chooses to do to increase their body temperature) What is an environmental cause of the change in temperature between 10am and 11am? Staying inside somewhere with a thermostat, the temperature is overall stable What is an internal response that would cause the change between 11am and 12pm? Sweat glands secreting fluids to help cool the body temperature down, vessels dilating, etc. 2. Name 3 things Sam’s body does to stay warm while she is outside without her coat on. (List the systems involved & what they do) 1. Shivering (muscular system, quick contractions to warm up the body) 2. Sweat glands are not secreting fluids (integumentary, the skin is keeping heat preserved) 3. Blood vessels are constricted to keep heat in (circulatory system) 3. Name 3 things Desmond’s body does to stay cool while he is running. (List the systems involved & what they do). 1. Increasing breaths, (respiratory system, to help heat leave to the environment) 2. Sweat glands are secreting fluid (integumentary to help your skin cool down) 3. Increase in heart rate and dilated vessels (circulatory system, to help heat loss in the body) 4. a) Describe why you get a fever when you are sick. A fever helps increase your body temperature to kill bacteria or viruses. b) What happens to the body’s temperature set point? It increases. (98.6 degrees F is our set point) 5. Fill in the chart to show the effect of exercise on homeostasis & the body’s response. How does exercise affect it? What is the body’s response? Body temperature Increases Try to decrease your body temp. as it is increasing by sweating and breathing more Blood acidity (amount of CO2) Increases Increasing respiratory rate to exhale more CO2 Blood sugar Decreases Tries to increase blood sugar to prevent hypoglycemia by releasing glucagon Amount of O2 Decreases Increasing respiratory rate to take in more O2 6. True or False: Enzymes work well at all temperatures or pH levels in living things. False, enzymes work at ideal temperatures and pH levels in a variety of living organisms. 7. What is a vaccine? A way to introduce your body to the virus to help your immune system prevent it in the future. 8. Describe how vaccines work. Vaccines work through injection and puts a small amount of the virus to introduce your immune system to the virus. Your immune system will learn to respond and recognize the virus in order to defend your body if it ever comes in contact with that specific virus. 9. What is the difference between negative feedback and positive feedback? Negative feedback is when your body fights against the stimulus, positive feedback is enhancing the stimulus. 10. Why is negative feedback more common when trying to maintain homeostasis? Negative feedback is more common because it is the only way for our internal mechanisms to respond in order to maintain homeostasis. Read the information below to answer question 11. If you observe a plant or a tree bearing lots of fruits, you will notice the fruits go through the stages: from unripe to ripe to overripe. The process will start when the first fruit begins to ripen. When it is ripe, it releases a gas which is known as ethylene (C2H4). This causes the nearby fruits exposed to the ethylene to begin to ripen. As the ripening continues, these fruits also continue to release ethylene gas. This feedback loop is usually used in the production of fruits in which exposure to ethylene gas makes the ripening process faster. 11. Is this an example of positive or negative feedback? Why? This is an example of positive feedback because the gas being released is only being released more. Nothing is “going against” the fruit ripening process to prevent the ethylene being released.

[What makes a good life? Lessons from the longest study on happiness](https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=26&v=8KkKuTCFvzI&utm_source=chatgpt.com) Här kommer en kort sammanfattning av huvudbudskapet i Robert Waldingers film What makes a good life? Lessons from the longest study on happiness: ## ✅ Vad filmen säger * Det finns en jättelång studie — över 75 år — som följt människors liv för att undersöka vad som ger verklig lycka och ett bra liv. ([Robert Waldinger][1]) * Studien visar att det inte är pengar, karriär, status eller berömmelse som i första hand gör människor lyckliga och friska. ([Robert Waldinger][2]) * Det viktigaste för ett gott liv är **goda relationer** – med familj, vänner eller samhälle. ([instituteofcoaching.org][3]) * Det handlar inte om att ha många bekanta, utan om att ha nära, trygga och stödjande relationer. ([summarize.ing][4]) * Relationer påverkar inte bara lycka — de påverkar vår fysiska och psykiska hälsa och även hjärnan: människor med starka relationer tenderar att leva längre, må bättre och behålla sin mentala hälsa högre upp i åldern. ([videos.weber.edu][5]) ## 🎯 Vad det betyder i praktiken * Att umgås med familj och vänner, vårda nära relationer och känna gemenskap kan vara viktigare än att jaga pengar eller framgång. * Det räcker inte bara med “att känna många” — det gäller att bry sig om kvaliteten i de relationer man har. * Ensamhet och brist på stöd kan påverka hälsa och välmående negativt. * Att ta hand om relationer är livet ut — inte bara när man är ung. ---

Capitalism & the First Industrial Revolution Mercantilism은 국가 통제로 무역을 관리했지만 세계가 확장되며 한계가 드러나 Capitalism으로 이동했다. Thomas Le Gendre의 “laissez nous faire”에서 나온 laissez-faire는 시장에 맡기라는 의미로, 정부 개입 최소화를 주장한다. Adam Smith는 The Wealth of Nations에서 개인의 이익 추구가 사회 전체 이익을 낳는 “invisible hand”를 제시했고, 관세·규제 축소를 지지했다. 그는 slavery가 비효율적이라고 보았지만 그 고통을 과소평가했다. Smith의 사상은 영국(Charles James Fox, Frederick North, William Pitt)과 미국(Thomas Jefferson)으로 퍼지며 경제 정책을 변화시켰다. 현대 비판은 사람들은 항상 rational choice를 하지 않으며 “invisible hand”가 노예·빈민·식민지 주민의 희생 위에 작동했다는 점을 지적한다. Mercantilism → Capitalism 전환 Mercantilism(중상주의)은 국가가 무역을 통제해 부를 늘렸지만 제국 확장과 자유 요구로 약화됨. 이후 Capitalism(자본주의)이 등장해 시장 가격과 비용이 경제를 조절하고 정부 개입은 최소화됨. Laissez-faire 등장 1681년 Thomas Le Gendre가 Colbert에게 “laissez nous faire”라고 말한 것에서 유래. → laissez-faire economics: 정부 간섭 없이 시장에 맡기는 경제. Adam Smith와 The Wealth of Nations Adam Smith는 The Wealth of Nations(1776)에서 개인 이익 추구가 사회 전체 이익으로 이어지는 “invisible hand”를 주장. free market을 위해 관세·규제 축소를 지지. slavery 비효율성을 지적했지만 고통을 과소평가함. 노예제와 Capitalism 논쟁 Capitalism은 자유로운 거래를 전제로 하나 slavery는 자유가 없어 충돌. 그러나 Sugar plantations는 공장처럼 운영되었고 노예 노동 이익은 산업과 공장에 투자됨. 플랜테이션이 자본주의인지 여부는 여전히 논쟁. 영국·미국으로 확산 영국의 Charles James Fox, Frederick North, William Pitt 등이 Smith의 사상을 수용해 관세·규제를 축소. 미국의 Thomas Jefferson도 Wealth of Nations를 높게 평가. 현대 비판 사람들은 항상 rational choice를 하지 않으며 “invisible hand”는 노예·빈민·식민지 주민의 희생 위에 작동했다는 비판이 존재. Mechanization and the First Part of the Industrial Revolution Late 1700s Western Europe에서 mechanization(기계로 인간·동물 노동 대체)이 시작되며 농업·수공업 중심 사회가 Industrial Revolution으로 전환됨. Mid-1600s 영국 Agricultural Revolution으로 식량 증가·인구 증가 → 잉여 노동력 생김. 1700s entrepreneurs(기업가)가 농촌 가족에게 원료 주고 집에서 제작하게 한 cottage labor 확산. 숙련 장인이 아니므로 저임금, 기업가만 큰 이익. 점차 노동자를 한곳에 모아 factory가 등장. 도시 집중·농촌 노동자 이동. Adam Smith 영향으로 정부가 공장 설립 지원. 산업혁명 핵심 동력: steam engine. 1698 Savery 최초 상업용 증기기관, 1776 James Watt 개선형. Steam-powered locomotives·boats(1807 Robert Fulton, 1812 Matthew Murray)로 원료·상품 이동이 가속됨. Industrialization은 기업가·중산층 부는 증가시키지만 비숙련 노동자는 저임금·장시간·위험한 작업환경에 처함. 숙련 장인의 지위 약화, 노동 통제권 상실. 1811 Luddites가 기계 파괴·폭동. 신화적 인물 Ned Ludd 이름에서 유래. 기술 변화가 전통 생활 파괴한다고 반발. Lord Byron은 폭력 대신 “conciliation and firmness”(화해와 확고함)를 촉구했지만 정부는 억압. 1812 의회는 산업 파괴를 사형죄로 규정. 1816년 진압. 오늘날 “Luddite”=기술 반대자라는 용어로 쓰임. Karl Marx(1818)는 Hegel 영향으로 역사 발전을 갈등·자유 확대 과정으로 이해. 1848 The Communist Manifesto(with Engels): “역사=계급투쟁.” 자본주의→사회주의→공산주의로 간다고 주장. 노동자들이 자본가를 전복해야 한다고 선언. 1867 Das Kapital: bourgeoisie가 proletariat를 착취한다고 분석. 노동 가치보다 낮은 임금을 주고 초과 가치를 착취해 부를 축적. 부는 정치 권력을 사는 데 사용됨 → 노동자 빈곤·무력화. 결국 자본주의는 붕괴하고 노동자가 권력을 되찾는다고 예측. Marx는 봉건제 해체가 자본주의 토대를 마련했지만 농민·장인들은 생산수단을 빼앗기고 “혈과 불의 문자”로 기록된 착취를 경험했다고 설명. Marx의 영향으로 1917 러시아 혁명 발생 → Soviet Union, 이후 China·Vietnam·North Korea·Cuba·Laos 등 공산국가 등장. 오늘날에도 사회주의·공산주의 정당 존재. 미국의 Bernie Sanders는 스스로 socialist라 부르지만 생산수단 국유화(nationalization of the means of production - 국가가 경제 활동을 위해 필요한 주요 자원과 시설을 직접 소유하고 운영하는 것국가가 경제 활동을 위해 필요한 주요 자원과 시설을 직접 소유하고 운영하는 것)는 추구하지 않음. The Second Industrial Revolution ​​18세기 영국에서 산업혁명(Industrial Revolution)이 시작되어 기계(mechanization)를 이용해 농업·수공업 중심 사회에서 기계 중심 제조업 사회로 전환되었다. 증기기관(steam engine)과 기계 도입으로 섬유(textiles), 철(iron), 강철(steel) 등 대량 생산이 가능해졌고, 철도(locomotive), 증기선(steamboat), 전신(telegraph) 등 교통·통신 기술 발전으로 생활과 산업이 변화했다. 19세기 중반~20세기 초 제2차 산업혁명(Second Industrial Revolution)에서는 강철 생산(Bessemer, Siemens-Martin), 전기(electricity), 내연기관(internal combustion engine), 증기터빈(steam turbine) 등 신기술과 교통수단(자동차, 자전거)이 확산되며 산업과 도시 구조가 변화했다. 통신 기술(전화, 무선 전신, 라디오)과 사진·영화·축음기 등 여가문화도 발전했다. 농업과 산업에도 혁신이 이어져 화학 염료, 콤바인, 기계 씨앗 뿌리기, 냉장 화물차, 바베드 와이어(barbed wire) 등 생산성과 유통 효율이 증가했다. 사무 분야에는 타자기, 계산기, 출퇴근 기록기(time clock)가 도입되었다. 산업화는 미국·유럽 중심으로 진행되었고, 아프리카·아시아·라틴아메리카(일본 제외)는 자원 부족, 유럽 식민지 착취, 환경·역사적 요인 등으로 산업화가 제한되었다. 일부 국가는 원자재(raw materials) 생산에 집중하며 산업화 대신 기존 경제 구조를 유지했다. Industrial Revolution 산업혁명(Industrial Revolution) 산업혁명은 18세기 영국에서 시작되어 기계 중심 제조업 사회로 전환된 시기이다. 산업혁명을 촉진한 요인 탐험과 식민지화(Exploration and Colonization)를 통해 원자재(Raw materials)를 확보하고, 해상력(Seapower)을 갖춘 영국은 세계 최대 해군과 상선을 보유했다. 정치적 안정(Political Stability) 덕분에 본토에서 큰 전쟁 없이 산업화가 가능했고, 정부(Government support)는 기업을 지원하는 법을 통과시켜 경쟁력을 강화했다. 농업혁명(Agricultural Revolution) 1701년 Jethro Tull의 씨앗뿌리기 기계(seed drill) 발명과 가축·작물 개량으로 식량 생산이 증가했고, 인구가 늘었다. 1773년 엔클로저 운동(Enclosure Movement)으로 공동 경작지가 부유한 지주에게 팔리면서 농지 효율이 증가했으나, 많은 농민이 도시로 이동하며 산업혁명의 저임금 노동력이 되었다. 기술 발명과 산업화 확산 James Watt의 증기기관 개선(1769), Richard Arkwright의 물레틀(water frame, 1775) 등 발명이 산업화를 촉진했다. 영국은 기술 유출을 막기 위해 발명가들의 출국을 제한하기도 했다. Samuel Slater는 1789년 미국으로 이주해 미국 산업 발전에 기여했다. 아동 노동과 개혁 Lewis Hine는 1900년대 초 아동 노동의 열악한 환경을 사진으로 폭로해 사회적 관심을 높였다. 영국은 1833년 Factory Act를 통해 9세 미만 아동 노동 금지, 9~18세 아동 근로 시간 제한, 학교 2시간 의무를 시행했고, 미국은 1904년 National Child Labor Committee 설립, 1938년 Fair Labor Act로 아동 노동 규제를 시행했다. 조립 라인(Assembly Line) Henry Ford는 1913년 디트로이트 공장에서 조립 라인을 도입해 자동차 생산을 빠르고 저렴하게 만들었다. 이는 대량생산(Mass Production)과 중산층 형성에 기여했다. Life in the Industrial Age Advances in Technology 19세기 후반 과학자들은 전기에 관심을 가졌고, 1831년 Michael Faraday가 자기와 전기의 관계를 발견하고 dynamo를 만들어 전동기를 구동했다. 1879년 Thomas Edison은 실용적인 전구를 발명하고 뉴욕에 세계 최초 central electric power plant를 세워 여러 블록에 전력을 공급했다. Edison의 발명으로 generators, motors, light sockets 등이 개발되었고, 공장은 더 이상 steam engine이나 수로에 의존하지 않아도 되며 햇빛에도 덜 의존하게 되었다. Transportation and Steel 초기 1800년대 주요 교통수단은 horse-drawn wagons, carriages, boats였지만, railroads와 steamships를 통해 장거리 운송과 관광이 가능해졌다. Henry Bessemer는 1851년 steel을 정제해 더 강하고 저렴하게 만드는 Bessemer process를 개발했고, 이로 인해 railroads와 locomotives 제작이 확대되었다. Telephone and Skyscraper Alexander Graham Bell은 telephone을 발명했고, 1885년 시카고에 10층 높이의 첫 skyscraper인...

HSP3U Unit 3 Review for Psychology Ways Psychology can improve your life - Article Motivation: rewards, small goals Leadership: guidance, confidence, clarity Communication: nonverbal signals, eye contact, tone Memory: study for test, focus, eliminate distraction, eliminate distractions Memory Palace Terms Can you remember the following terms? Describe each term thoroughly. Term Description Psychology The scientific study of human behaviour and mental processes Psychologist People who hold a master’s/doctoral degree in psychology that use social science inquiry model to examine our actions (behaviours in certain situations) and our mental processes (how we think, feel, remember and learn) to understand what guides our thinking and behaviours They observe, analyze and evaluate behaviour. They’re trained to assess and diagnose problems in thinking, feelings and behaviour, as well as to help people overcome or manage these. Psychiatrist Medical doctors who go on to specialize in the study of mental health and mental illness. They prescribe medication for their clients to help them manage their mental illness. Psychoanalysis/Psychodynamic A process designed to uncover patient’s unconscious thoughts by encouraging them to discuss their background, feelings, and experiences with a trained psychologist ID Known as the unconscious - devil Follows the pleasure principal primitive , innate urges Just does what it wants and it wants things immediately It doesn't think about the consequences Present at birth Ex: bodily needs, sexuality and aggression like “i am so mad i could hit you” Ego Known as the conscious Follow the reality principle Mediates between Id’s impulses and Superego’s inhibitions Consider the consequences of actions and directs behaviour to maximize pleasure and minimize pain Forms around 2 Ex: thoughts and perceptions Superego Known as the preconscious - angel Seeks to control id’s impulses from a perspective of morality Acts as our own conscience and helps us judge right from wrong Shows up around age 5 Ex: morals and conscience Defence Mechanism The ego’s way of distorting reality to deal with anxiety Repression Process which unacceptable desires or impulses are executed from consciousness and left to operate in the unconscious (bury deep and not face emotion) Denial A defence mechanism whereby a person refuses to recognize or acknowledge something that is painful, displacing onto a safe target. (refuse to look at the truth) Displacement The shift of an emotion from its original focus to another object, person or situation Regression When you go back to earlier stages in your life. Ex: fetal position is regression, reminsim, and stuffed animals. Projection A defence mechanism whereby a person attributes their own threatening impulses onto someone else. Freudian Slips An unintentional error revealing the unconscious mind’s feelings Iceberg Model Represents how our conscious mind is above the water (ego) The unconscious mind is below the surface (id) The id is completely unconscious, and the ego and superego straddle both sides of the iceberg, operating consciously and unconsciously. Free Association A method used in psychoanalysis where the patient relaxes and says whatever comes to mind. Collective Unconscious Carl Jung’s concept. Part of unconscious mind from ancestral experience common in all humankind Google definition: a deeper layer of the mind, shared by all humanity, containing inherited, universal patterns, instincts, and primordial images (archetypes) from ancestral experiences, distinct from individual (personal) memories, influencing our universal human experiences like birth, death, and love through common myths and symbols Archetypes The universal symbols that tend to reappear over time; includes models of people, behaviors, and personalities. Classical Conditioning It is a type of learning where a once neutral stimulus comes to produce a particular response after pairings with a conditioned stimulus. It is when u make associations Unconditioned stimulus (US): naturally or automatically triggers a response Unconditioned response (UR): unlearned response that occurs naturally in response to the unconditioned stimulus Neutral stimulus (NS): initially produces no specific response other than focusing attention (like ringing bell) Conditioned stimulus (CS): previously neutral stimulus that, after becoming associated with the unconditioned stimulus, eventually triggers a response Conditioned response (CR): learned response to the previously neutral stimulus Look and learn from examples on ws Operant Conditioning And Pos/Neg – Reinforcement/Punishment It is a type of learning that uses rewards and punishments to achieve a desired behaviour Positive reinforcement: is when you add something for reinforcement (rewards) Negative reinforcement: when you take away for a cause for the good Positive punishment: when you add punishment by adding something Negative punishment: when you punish someone by taking away something. Skinner Box: is an operant conditioning chamber with a rat in a box. The rat would learn that it would receive food by pushing a leaver. If the rat did not get any food for pushing leever, extinction would occur. Which in this case is the diminishing of a conditioned response due to lack of environment. Extinction Extinction: in an operant conditioning, the diminishing of a conditioned response due to a lack of reinforcement Logotherapy A form of psychotherapy that tries to help the patient find the aim and meaning of their own life as a human being without accessing the medical aspect of mental health The Human Genome Project When world came together to combine knowledge, and map gene DNA has been mapped (all parts) Nature vs. Focused on heredity and trails that are passed down genetically Ex : medical conditions, addiction, mannerism, appearance, blood type, skin, IQ/EQ, height Nurture Nurture is the environment you are raised in Ex: manners, respect, beliefs, morals, religion, where you live, SES, trauma The Goals of Psychology You should know the four goals of psychology. Identify those goals below: Describe behaviour (what): Through describing behaviour, we're better able to understand it and gain a better perspective on what is considered normal and abnormal. Methods: observation, case studies, surveys and experiments Explain behaviour (why): Psychologists are interested in understanding why people do the things they do, what factors contribute to personality, social behaviour, and mental health problems? There have been many differ theories emerged to help explain various aspects of human behaviour Predict behaviour (when): Once we understand more about what happens and why it happens, we can use that information to make predictions about when, why, and how it might happen again in the future. Control behaviour (how): Psychology strives to change, influence, or control behaviour in order to make positive and lasting changes in people’s lives. From treating mental illness to enhancing human well-being. Changing human behaviour is a huge focus of psychology. Dreaming You should know the theories that attempt to explain why we dream. List those theories below: We dream to fulfill our wishes We dream to remember We dream to process memories We dream to forget We dream for our brains to prune waste materials We dream to keep our brains woking We dream to heal We dream to solve problems We dream to rehearse Continual activation theory: brain is like a computer, like a screen saver so brain does not completely shut down Common Dreams Falling Being chased Being back in school Death Tests Naked Sexual Loose teeth Freud and Dreams Believed dreams are the road to the unconscious, to our id Wrote a book “interpretation of dreams” which believed dreams had a meaning Died in 1939, which was start of world war 2) Died of cancer from oral cancer due to excessive smoking cigars Manifest vs. Latent Meaning Manifest content: is the actual content, or storyline of a dream Latent Content: is the hidden meaning of a dream Sleep Importance of Sleep and Sleep Stages/REM Importance of sleep:? Sleep stages: Important for physical health LIGHT SLEEP Stage 1 4-5% of your nights sleep Easily woken up Can hear whats going on Stage 2 45-55% Body functions slow (breathing, pulse, blood pressure) Muscles relax Eyes stop moving DEEP SLEEP Stage 3 4-6% Brain waves larger and slower Sleepwalking or talking may occur Stage 4 12-15% Body temperature drops Sleepwalking of talking may occur REM STAGE Important for mental health Rapid eye movement 20-25% Dreams are most vivid Heartbeat increases Breathing becomes shallow Eyes moves rapidly Muscles are relaxed Brain waves resemble those during walking STUDY BIG NEWSPAPER REM Dreams are strongly associated with REM sleep RAPID EYE MOVEMENT This is when REM dreams are very vivid REM sleep is a state of sleep that is most like wakefulness Adults 20-25% sleep are REM sleep Babies sleep is about 50% are REM sleep Adults do not start sleep at REM but babies do Adults go through 4-5 sleep cycles a night (60-90 mins per cycle) REM gets longer the more you go through the night Personality Psychometrics: Study that uses tests to measure personality Define Personality: Individual’s characteristic pattern of thinking, feeling, and behaving.

-Потребите на луѓето се од биолошки, географски и од општествено-историски карактер. Обемот и структурата на потребите зависи од многу фактори: - достигнатиот степен на економски развој; - социјалната средина во која се живее; - природните услови - навиките, вкусот, модата итн. -Потребите ја изразуваат состојбата на организмот или на социјалната ситуација и упатуваат на нарушена биолошка или социјална рамнотежа. -Потребата е недостаток или вишок на нештата во организмот или средината која го поттикнува организмот на активност за да ја постигне рамнотежата. -Во теоријата на маркетингот постојат различни класификации на потребите. Најчесто се класифицираат во две групи:13 1. Основни потреби – потреби за одржување на живот. 2. Потреби на стандард – потреби за комфорно живеење, користење на технички достигнувања, културен живот и сл. -Според носителите на потребите, тие се делат на:14 1. Индивидуални човечки потреби, кои се групираат на биолошки и психолошки потреби. 2. Општествени потреби, кои се јавуваат кај човекот како општествено битие, како што се: потребите за организирање, планирање, комуникација, образование итн. -Во маркетингот значајна е поделбата на потребите во зависност од редоследот на нивното задоволување според Маслов. 1. На основата на пирамидата се наоѓаат физиолошките потреби односно биолошки или основни потреби. Без нивно задоволување човекот не може да опстои во живот. Тука спаѓаат потребите за храна, вода, пијалаци, воздух, спиење и сл. 2. Потреби за сигурност – потреби за безбедност и заштита дома, на училиште, на работа и сл. 3. Емоционално врзување – општествени потреби за љубов, пријателство, другарство и сл. 4. Потреби за почитување – признание, самопочитување, статус. 5. Потреба за знаење – разбирање, учење на нови работи, спознавање. 6. Естетски потреби – потреби за убаво. 7. Самоактуелизација – постигнување максимум во животот, самодокажување, самопотрврдување, самореализација. *Успешното идентификување на потребите е основа за успешна сегментација на пазарот. Компаниите тогаш ќе можат поефикасно да ги насочат и приспособат своите маркетиншки напори на потребите на сегментите. *Мотив е внатрешна движечка сила која го поттикнува човекот кон определена активност со крајна цел да се воспостави рамнотежа. Познавањето на мотивите на потрошувачите објаснува зошто купувачите донеле одлука да купат одреден производ, некоја марка на производ или услуга. Мотивите на потрошувачите се дефинираат како непосредни поттикнувачи на акција, односно на купување одредени производи или услуги. *Мотивите на купувањето најчесто се класифицираат во две групи: - рационални мотиви, - емоционални мотиви. *Рационални или како што се нарекуваат економски мотиви на купувањето се таков вид мотиви кои во донесувањето на одлуката за купување поаѓаат од одредени економски причини како што се: квалитет, цена, сигурност, трајностна производот и сл. Во оваа група мотиви спаѓаат:15 - начин на користење на производот, - ефикасност во користењето или употребата, - сигурност на помошна услуга, - можност за зголемување на заработувачката, - зголемување на продуктивноста на трудот, - економичност во набавката и користењето. *Емоционалните мотиви настануваат како резултат на личните, субјективните критериуми во донесувањето на одлуката за купување и изборот се прави врз основа на елементи кои не произлегуваат од логичкото однесување на купувачите. Тука спаѓаат: - задоволување одредени чувства (вид, слух, мирис, вкус), - одржување на видот, - самозаштита, - одмор и рекреација, - достоинство, - општествено признание, - љубопитност и сл. Мотивацискиот процес започнува во моментот кога потрошувачот станува свесендека има одредена потреба. Мотивацискиот процес има три етапи: - етапа на појава на потреба и создавање мотив, - етапа на однесување на потрошувачите, - етапа на купување и задоволување на потребите. *Купувањето е сложен процес затоа што човекот не се однесува рационално во одредени ситуации, односно врз неговата одлука за купување влијаат голем бројобјективни и субјективни фактори, односно стимуланси. Основни фактори се: поединецот, неговото семејство, неговата потесна околина, припадноста во одредена општествена класа, културна, општествено- економска средина и сл. *Реакцијата на купувачите се состои од избор на производ, марка на производ, се избира место на набавка, време и износ на набавка *Процесот на донесување на одлука покажува и кои активности се преземаат при донесување на решенија и како внатрешните и надворешните сили влијаат на размислувањата, оценката и дејствувањето на потрошувачите. *Процесот на донесување одлука за купување поминува низ пет фази:17  Препознавање на потреба;  Прибирање информации;  Оцена на различни алтернативи;  Одлука за купување;  Посткуповен процес. Препознавањето на потребата настанува како резултат на воочување на разликата меѓу посакуваната состојба и вистинската состојба доволна да го поттикне и да го активира процесот на одлучување.18 Потребата може да биде предизвикана од:19 - Внатрешни поттикнувачи (глад, жед и сл.). - Надворешни поттикнувачи (фактори и ситуации што дејствуваат однадвор). Прибирање информации Втора фаза во процесот на купување е кога купувачот е предизвикан да бара повеќе информации. Прибирањето на информациите вклучува ментални и физички активности на потрошувачите. Потрошувачите пребаруваат повеќе извори за да ги добијат потребните информации за избор на производ со кој

HISTORIOGRAFIE LATIJN EXAMEN

HISTORIOGRAFIE Traditioneel laat men de geschiedschrijving in Europa beginnen met de Griekse schrijver Herodotus, die in de vijfde eeuw voor Christus de Historiae schreef. Het belangrijkste onderwerp is de geschiedenis van de conflicten tussen de Grieken en de Barbaren, waarmee hij verschillende volkeren uit het oosten en dan voornamelijk de Perzen bedoelt. Het hoogtepunt van deze conflicten waren de zogennaamde Perzische oorlogen. Herodotus maakt echter ook vele zijsprongen naar andere geschiedskundige en geografische onderwerpen en hij last ook heel wat anekdotes in. Ook voor Herodotus waren er al chronieken geschreven, chronologische verslagen van gebeurtenissen jaar na jaar, maar Herodotus was de eerste om een aantal principes te hanteren die in de latere geschiedschrijving essentieel zouden worden. Zo probeerde hij verbanden te zoeken tussen gebeurtenissen, zocht naar oorzaken, probeerde een onderscheid te maken tussen eerder wel en eerder niet betrouwbare bronnen en hij ging zelf op onderzoek uit. Hij heeft daarbij een groot gebied afgereisd. Al in de oudheid kreeg hij de bijnaam Vader van de geschiedschrijving. In het Latijn, Pater Historiae. De tweede grote Griekse geschiedschrijver was Thucydides, een tijdgenoot van Herodotus. Hij schreef over het slag over de Peloponnesische oorlog tussen Athene en Sparta, die hij zelf ook meemaakte. Meer dan Herodotus schreef hij strict onpartijdig, deed hij uitgebreid bronnenonderzoek, zocht hij naar dieperliggende oorzaken.( Hij was de eerste om een onderscheid te maken tussen de oorzaak en de aanleiding van de gebeurtenis.) Anders dan Herodotus deed hij ook geen enkel beroep op de goden om bepaalde gebeurtenissen te verklaren. Hij hechtte daarentegen veel belang aan de psychologie; De geschiedenis wordt gestuurd door het gedrag van individuele mensen, en dit gedrag wordt op zijn beurt veroorzaakt door drijfveren als angst en het naschrijven van eigen belang. Zoals op zoveel vlakken hebben de Romeinen ook het genre van de geschiedschrijving van de Grieken overgenomen en de eerste Romeinen die over het eigen Romeinse verleden schreven, deden dat in het Grieks. De eerste Romein die in het Latijn een geschiedskundig werk schreef, was Cato, de grote voorvechter van de mos maiorum en tegenstander van alles wat Grieks was. De schrijvers die als de grootste Romeinse geschiedschrijvers worden beschouwd, moeten allemaal gesitueerd worden in de eerste eeuw voor Christus en de eerste, slechts begin tweede eeuw na Christus. Caesar, Sallustius, Livius, Suetonius en Tacitus. Caesar was in de eerste plaats een van de belangrijkste politici uit de eerste eeuw voor Christus en voor ons van bijzondere betekenis omdat hij onze gebieden bij het Romeins Rijk heeft toegevoegd. Om deze redenen, en ook omdat zijn taal als het voorbeeld bij uitstek van klassiek Latijn wordt beschouwd, is Kajzar sinds de 16e eeuw een schoolauteur. Zijn geschiedkundige werken zijn sterk autobiografisch, zowel in De Bello Gallico als in De Bello Civili speelt hij zelf de hoofdrol. Zijn bedoeling met deze werken was zeker niet als een wetenschapper aan objectieve geschiedschrijving doen, maar wel zijn eigen optreden verantwoorden. Sallustius, ( 86 tot 35 v.C.), schreef enkele monografieën, vrij korte weg over één specifieke gebeurtenis, met name over de oorlog van de Romeinen tegen de Numidische koning Jugurtha (Algerije) (tussen 111 en 105 v.C.), en over de samenzwering van een zekere Catilina in het jaar 63 v.C., het jaar waarin Cicero consul was. Sallustius, die zelf tot de populares behoorde, had een duidelijke bedoeling met het schrijven van zijn werken. Hij wilde aantonen dat Rome in verval is, doordat de Romeinen corrupt zijn geworden en zich niet meer laten leiden door de mos maiorum, maar door heel andere motieven; de zeer slechte en onderling verschillende kwalen, luxezucht en hebzucht. Hij legt de schuld hiervoor volledig bij de optimates. De bekendste geschiedschrijver uit de tijd van keizer Augustus is Livius. (59 v.C. tot 17 n.C.. In zijn Ab Urbe Condita wilde hij de hele Romeinse geschiedenis weergeven vanaf de stichting van de stad, 753 v.C., tot in zijn eigen tijd. Zeker voor de vroege geschiedenis van Rome is zijn werk een mengeling van geschiedenis en mythologie. Livius beseft dit zelf ook. In zijn voorwoord geeft hij aan dat hij niet de bedoeling heeft om deze 'verhalen die eerder getuigen van poëtische legendes dan van betrouwbare historische feiten' als absolute waarheid te bestempelen, maar ook niet om ze zonder meer af te wijzen. Livius hechtte, net zoals Sallustius, veel belang aan de mos Maiorum en vond dat het op een bepaald moment in de geschiedenis de verkeerde kant is uitgegaan. Zijn bedoeling is beroemde Romeinen uit het verleden opnieuw onder de aandacht te brengen, die met hun woorden en daden de goede oude zeden belichaamden en zo Rome meer grootgemaakt hebben. Hij hoopt ongetwijfeld dat ze als voorbeeld zouden dienen voor zijn tijdgenoten. In dat opzicht sluit hij weer perfect aan bij de politiek van keizer Augustus, die ook de mos Maiorum wilde doen heropleven. Van zijn omvangrijke werk, 142 boeken, is slechts een kwart bewaard, vooral de vroege geschiedenis en de Tweede Punische Oorlog. Hoewel niet in alle tijden erg populair, vooral wegens zijn aparte schrijfstijl, is Tacitus, 55 tot 117 na Christus, zeker een van de grootste geschietschrijvers uit de oudheid. In zijn twee hoofdwerken, de Historiae en de Annales, behandelt hij respectievelijk de periode van 69 tot 96 na Christus en de periode die daaraan voorafgaat, van 14 tot 69 na Christus. Zoals hij zelf in de eerste paragraaf van de Annales aangeeft, is het zijn bedoeling de geschiedenis van de vroege keizertijd weer te geven sine ira et studio; zonder razernij en sympathie. Hoewel hij daar zeker niet altijd in slaagt ( hij is een duidelijk voorstander van de republiek en heeft vaak openlijk kritiek op keizers) probeert hij wel op een kritische manier aan geschiedschrijving te doen, waarbij hij bronnen met elkaar vergelijkt, duidelijk maakt wanneer iets slecht en gerucht was, soms ook aangeeft dat er geen zekerheid bestaat over wat er op een bepaald moment werkelijk gebeurd is. Suetonius, 69 - 122 na Christus, een tijdgenoot van Tacitus, behandeld dezelfde periode, maar dan in de vorm van biografieën. De zogenaamde De Vita Caesarum, het leven van de keizers. Hoewel Suetonius voor ons een belangrijke bron is voor feiten over deze periode, zeker over de jaren die in het werk van Tacitus verloren zijn gegaan, doet zijn werk vaak aan als een soap met een opeenstapeling van pikante details en grote roddels. Enkele genrekenmerken; Het is moeilijk om uit enkele eeuwen aan geschiedkundig werk veel algemene regels en kenmerken te halen. Toch zijn er zeker enkele kenmerken te onderscheiden voor de historiografie van de Romeinse oudheid. Een eerste belangrijke kenmerk is dat de geschiedschrijving in prozavorm gebeurt, geen poëzie dus! Historiografie kan verschillende vormen aannemen. Populair in de Romeinse oudheid zijn vooral biografieën, monografieën ( werk over één bepaalde historische gebeurtenis) en analyses. (het beschrijven van de geschiedenis jaar per jaar.) De schrijvers geven vaak hun persoonlijke mening over de gebeurtenissen en personen die het beschrijven. Naast hun persoonlijke mening is er ook vaak sprake van regelgerichte propaganda. Dit kan zowel propaganda zijn voor de schrijver zelf(Caesar), of breder voor de Romeinse mos maiorum, (Livius, Sallustius) Zoals virtus, (dapperheid niet alleen in de oorlog, maar ook op het thuisgrond. )En pietas,( plichtsbesef tegenover de familie, het vaderland en de goden.) Sommige van deze kenmerken zijn natuurlijk niet uniek voor de Romeinse oudheid, maar samen geven ze een goede indruk van hoe er in deze periode aan geschiedschrijving werd gedaan.

PRE-CELTS The Pre-Celts lived in Britain. They grew cereals and bred animals such as cattle, pigs and sheep. They built large enclosed spaces to organise their settlements. They lived during the Bronze Age, a period in which they developed metalworking, produced pottery and manufactured leather and cloth. Their society included people who depended on granaries, roundhouses and enclosed spaces for protection and storage. CELTS The Celts gradually settled in north-western Europe and later in Britain. Their society included farmers, hunters, fishermen and metalworkers. They used tools such as the iron plough, and many of them lived in hill forts—groups of houses built on the top of hills, usually made of wood. Celtic women had rights, and Celtic men and women often wore clothes similar to what we imagine today as Celtic clothing. They spoke Celtic languages, including Welsh and Gaelic. The Celts were pagans. They worshipped natural elements and believed in the immortality of the soul. Druids acted as priests and judges; they gave justice and solved quarrels within extended families. ROMANS The Romans came from Italy. They built towns with a forum, public baths and built roads to transport troops and goods. Their arrival brought big changes to daily life, including new foods, new goods and new building styles. They also introduced Christianity. In 409 AD, the Romans withdrew their soldiers from Britain to defend Rome against barbarian attacks. Their departure marked the end of Roman control of Britain. ANGLO-SAXONS – From Concept Map to Discursive Text The Anglo-Saxons came mainly from Germany during the 5th and 6th centuries. They were divided into different groups, such as the Angles, the Saxons, and the Jutes, and they settled in various parts of England after the end of Roman rule. Their society was organised in a clear hierarchy that included the king, the thanes (noble warriors), the freemen, the ceorls, and the slaves. The Anglo-Saxon kingdoms included Northumbria, Mercia, Essex, Sussex, Wessex, and Kent. Each kingdom was independent, although they often fought against one another. The Anglo-Saxons were mostly farmers, but they were also fishermen, including deep-sea fishing. They lived in wooden houses, often built near a river, and their communities were organised into small villages. The hall, the largest building in the village, was an important communal place used for meetings and celebrations. Before Christianisation, the Anglo-Saxons believed in pagan gods and had many legends and stories, which were part of their oral tradition. Their religious practices began to change when Christianity returned to England. ✍️CHRISTIANISATION – Exact Transcription CHRISTIANISATION 597 → Pope Gregory I the Great sent a
monk to bring Christianity back to England
→ He succeeded 602 → He built the Cathedral of Canterbury
→ Augustine became the first Archbishop They started to build monasteries and
they became important cultural and communal
life centres And churches were important for education
and public administration. Anglo-Saxon Literature – Anglo-Saxon literature represents the earliest form of English literary tradition. It includes different genres, such as poetry, prose, religious writings, and historical documents. Much of this literature was originally transmitted orally by storytellers, often called scops, who played a crucial role in preserving cultural memory. A dominant form within Anglo-Saxon poetry is the epic poem, a long narrative composition that celebrates heroic deeds and great warriors. These poems typically recount the actions of legendary heroes who confront military challenges or supernatural forces. They are meant to exalt values such as courage, loyalty, and honour. Their aim was not only to entertain but also to teach moral lessons and inspire the community. Epic poetry often focuses on warfare, heroic struggles, and the glory gained through battle. One well-known example is the story of warriors who fought to protect their people and achieve everlasting fame. These narratives highlight the Anglo-Saxon belief in fate, and the desire to be remembered for heroic actions. Another important characteristic is that many of the works were anonymous. Since they were transmitted orally for generations before being written down, the names of the original authors were often lost. When the Church later started to write these stories, some elements of Christian ideology were added, blending with the earlier pagan traditions. In summary, Anglo-Saxon literature is a rich combination of oral tradition, heroic values, and cultural identity. It preserves the stories, beliefs, and ideals of one of the earliest periods of English history.

Jean Piaget’s Theory of Cognitive Development Jean Piaget, a Swiss psychologist, is one of the most important figures in the field of developmental psychology. He proposed a detailed theory to explain how children think, understand, and learn as they grow. According to Piaget, children are not “mini adults.” Instead, they actively construct knowledge by interacting with their environment. His theory shows that children’s thinking changes in clear, predictable stages, and each stage has its own characteristics. Meaning of Cognitive Development Cognitive development refers to the growth and change in a child’s ability to think, reason, understand, solve problems, and learn. Piaget believed that children learn through two important processes: Assimilation – Adding new information into existing knowledge. Accommodation – Changing old ideas to fit new information. Through these processes, children build their own understanding, which Piaget called “schemas.” Piaget’s Four Stages of Cognitive Development Piaget divided cognitive development into four major stages. These stages occur in the same order for every child, although the exact age may slightly vary. 1. Sensorimotor Stage (0–2 years) In this stage, infants learn through senses and physical actions such as touching, looking, sucking, grasping, and moving. Key characteristics: Object Permanence: The child learns that objects continue to exist even when they are out of sight. Before this, if a toy is hidden, the child thinks it has disappeared. Goal-directed behaviour: Babies start performing actions to achieve a goal, e.g., pulling a cloth to reach a toy. Beginning of imitation: Infants imitate simple actions of adults like clapping or waving. This stage marks the beginning of purposeful thinking. 2. Pre-operational Stage (2–7 years) In this stage, the child’s thinking becomes more symbolic, but still illogical and dominated by appearance. Language develops rapidly. Major features: Egocentrism: The child can see things only from their own point of view. They find it difficult to understand that others may think differently. Animism: The child believes that non-living things have life and feelings, like thinking the moon follows them. Centration: The child focuses on only one feature of a situation. For example, when comparing two glasses of water, they focus only on height, not width. Lack of conservation: Children cannot understand that quantity remains the same even when shape changes. This stage shows growth in imagination but limitations in logical thinking. 3. Concrete Operational Stage (7–11 years) Here, the child starts thinking logically but only about concrete and real situations, not abstract ideas. Characteristics: Conservation develops: Children understand that quantity remains the same even when shape or appearance changes (e.g., same amount of clay in different shapes). Decentration: They can consider more than one aspect at a time. Reversibility: Children understand that actions can be reversed (e.g., melted ice can become water again). Classification and Seriation: They can group objects based on common features and can arrange them in order (small to big). Logical reasoning: They can solve problems only when physical objects or real examples are present. This stage shows the growth of organized and rule-based thinking. 4. Formal Operational Stage (11 years and above) In this stage, adolescents develop the ability to think abstractly, logically, and scientifically. Main features: Abstract thinking: They can think about ideas that are not physically present, such as justice, freedom, and morality. Hypothetical-deductive reasoning: They can form hypotheses and think of different possibilities. Scientific and systematic problem solving: The adolescent can test variables and use logical steps to reach a solution. Future planning: They can imagine long-term goals, consequences, and future possibilities. This stage represents the highest level of cognitive development according to Piaget. Educational Implications of Piaget’s Theory Piaget’s theory has great importance in teaching and learning. 1. Learning should be activity-based Children learn better through hands-on experiences such as experiments, models, and real-life examples. 2. Teaching should match the child’s developmental stage Teachers must provide tasks according to the child’s thinking ability. Complex abstract ideas should not be taught to very young children. 3. Encourage discovery learning Students should explore, ask questions, and discover knowledge on their own. 4. Provide opportunities for interaction Interaction with peers helps children overcome egocentrism and learn new perspectives. 5. Use concrete materials for younger children For children in the concrete operational stage, examples, objects, and visual aids help them understand concepts better. Criticism of Piaget’s Theory Although Piaget’s work is widely respected, it has some criticisms: He underestimated children’s abilities; many children can perform tasks earlier than he believed. Cognitive development may not always follow strict stages. Social and cultural factors affect development more than Piaget explained. Still, Piaget’s theory remains a strong foundation for understanding children's thinking. Conclusion Jean Piaget’s Theory of Cognitive Development explains how children construct knowledge step-by-step through four stages. It highlights that learning is an active process and that children’s thinking changes as they grow. His theory helps teachers understand the mental level of learners and plan suitable teaching activities. Despite some criticisms, it remains one of the most influential theories in child development.

1 CHAPTER ONE PRELIMINARIES The word physics comes from the Greek word meaning ―nature‖. Today physics is treated as the base for science and have various applications for the ease of life. Physics deals with matter in relation to energy and the accurate measurement of natural phen omenon . Thus physics is inherently a science of measurement. The fundamentals of physics form the basis for the study and the development of engineering and technology. Measurement consists of the comparison of an unknown quantity with a known fixed quant ity. The quantity used as the standard of measurement is called ‗unit‘. For example, a vegetable vendor weighs the vegetables in terms of units like kilogram. Learning Objectives : At the end of this chapter , you will be able to:  Explain physics .  Describe how SI base units are defined.  Describe how derived units are created from base units.  Express quantities given in SI units using metric prefixes.  Describe the relationships among models, theories, and laws .  Know the units used to describe various physical quantities .  Become familiar with the prefixes used for larger and smaller quantities .  Master the use of unit conversion (dimensional analysis) in solving problems .  Understand the relationship between uncertainty and the number of significant figures in a number. 1.1. Physical Quantities and Measurement Self Diagnostic Test :  Why do we need measurement in physics and our day -to-day lives?  Give the names and abbreviations for the basic physical quantities and their corresponding SI units.  What do you mean by a unit? 2 Definitions: Physical quantity is a quantifiable or assignable property ascribed to a particular phenomenon or body, for instance the length of a rod or the mass of a body. Measurement is the act of compari ng a physical quantity with a certain standard . Scientists can even make up a completely new physical quantity that has not been known if necessary. However, there is a set of limited number of physical quantities of fundamental importance from which all other possible quantities c an be derived. Those quantities are called Basic Physical Quantities , and obviously the other derivatives are called Derived Physical Quantities. 1.1.1. Physical quantities A. Basic Physical Quantities: Basic quantities are the quantities which cannot be expressed in terms of any other physical quantity. Example: length, mass and time. B. Derived Physical Quantities: Derived quantities are quantities that can be expressed in terms of fundamental quantities . Examples: area, volume, density. Giving numerical values for physical quantities and equations for physical principles allows us to understand nature much more deeply than qualitative descriptions alone. To comprehend these vast ranges, we must also have accepted units in which to express them. We shall find tha t even in the potentially mundane discussion of meters, kilograms, and seconds, a profound simplicity of nature appears: all physical quantities can be expressed as combinations of onl y seven basic physical quantities. We define a physical quantity either by specifying how it is measured or by stating how it is calculated from other measurements. For example, we might define distance and time by specifying methods for measuring them, such as using a meter stick and a stopwatch. Then, we could define averag e speed by stating that it is calculated as the total distance traveled divided by time of travel. 3 Measurements of physical quantities are expressed in terms of units , which are standardized values. For example, the length of a race, which is a physical q uantity, can be expressed in units of meters (for sprinters) or kilometers (for distance runners). Without standardized units, it would be extremely difficult for scientists to express and compare measured values in a meaningful way . 1.1.2. SI Units: Basic and Derived Units SI unit is the abbreviation for International System of Units and is the modern form of metric systemfinallyagreeduponattheeleventhInternationalconferenceofweightsandmeasures,1960. This system of units is now being adopted throughout th e world and will remain the primary system of units of measurement. SI system possesses features that make it logically superior to any other system and it is built upon 7 basic quantities and the ir associated units (see Table 1.1 ). Table 1.1: Basic quantities and their SI u nits Table 1.2: Derived quantities, t heir SI units and dimensions 1.1.3. Conversion of Units Measurements of physical quantities are expressed in terms of units , which are standardized values. To convert a quantity from one unit to another, multiply by conversions factors in such a 4 way that you cancel the units you want to get rid of and introduce the units you want to end up with. Below is the table for commonly use d unit conversions (see Table 1.3). Table 1.3 : Unit conversion of basic q uantities Examples : 1. Length 0.02in can be converted into SI unit in meters using table 1.3 as follow: Solution: 0.02in= 0.02 x0.0254 m = 0.000508m = 5.08 x10-4m = 0.503 mm or 508µm. 2. Honda Fit weighs about 2,500 lb. It is equivalent to 2500 x0.4536kg = 1134.0kg. 1.2. Uncertaint y in Measurement a nd Significant Digits Measurements are always uncertain, but it was always hoped that by designing a better and better experiment we can improve the uncertainty without limits. It turned out not to be the case. No measurement of a physical quantity can be entirely accurate. It is important to know, therefore, just how much the measured value is likely to deviate from the unknown, true, value of the quantity. The art of estimating these deviations should probably be called uncertainty analysis, Activities : 1. A common Ethiopian cities speed limit is 30km/hr. W hat is this speed in miles per hours? 2. How many cubic meters are in 250,000 cubic centimeters? 3. The average body temperature of a house cat is 101.5oF. What is this temperature in Celsiu s? 5 but for historical reasons is refer red to as error analysis. This document contains brief discussions about how errors are reported, the kinds of errors that can occur, how to estimate random errors, and how to carry error estimates into calculated results. Uncertainty gives the range of p ossible values of the measure and, which covers the true value of the measure and. Thus uncertainty characterizes the spread of measurement results. The interval of possible values of measure and is commonly accompa nied with the confidence level. Therefore , the uncertainty also indicates a doubt about how well the result of the measurement presents the value of the quantity being measured. All measurements always have some uncertainty. We refer to the uncertainty as the error in the measurement. Errors fall into two categories: 1. Systematic Error - errors resulting from measuring devices being out of calibration. Such measurements will be consistently too small or too large. These errors can be eliminated by pre -calibrating against a known, trusted standa rd. 2. Random Errors - errors resulting in the fluctuation of measurements of the same quantity about the average. The measurements are equally probable of being too large or too small. These errors generally result from the fineness of scale division of a me asuring device. Physics is a n empirical science associated with a lot of measurements and calculations. These calculations involve measurements with uncertainties a nd thus it is essential for science students to learn how to analyze these uncertainties (e rrors) in any calculation. Systematic errors are generally ―simple‖ to analyze but random errors require a more careful analysis and thus it will be our focus. There is a statistical method for calculating random uncertainties in measurements. The followin g general rules of thumb are often used to determine the uncertainty in a single measurement when using a scale or digital measuring device. 1. Uncertainty in a scale m easuring device is equal to the smallest increment divided by 2. Example: Meter Stick (scale device) 6 2. Uncertainty in a digital measuring d evice is equal to the smallest increment. Example: A reading from digital Balance (digital device) is 5.7513 kg, therefore When stating a measurement , the uncertainty should be stated explicitly so that there is no question about it. However, if it is not stated explicitly, an uncertainty is still implied. For example, if we measure a lengt h of 5.7 cm with a meter stick, this implies that the length can be anywhere in the range 5.65 cm ≤ L ≤ 5.75 cm. Thus, L =5 .7 cm measured with a meter stick implies an uncertainty of 0.05 cm. A common rule of thumb is to take one -half the unit of the last decimal place in a measurement to obtain the uncertainty. In general, any measurement can be stated in the following preferred form: Measurement = xbest± Where , xbest= best estimate of measurement , = uncertainty (error) in measurement . 1.2.1. Significant digits Whenever you make a measurement, the number of meaningful digits that you write down implies the error in the measurement. For example if you say that the length of an object is 0.428 m, you imply an uncertainty of about 0.001 m. To record this measurement as either 0.4 or 0.42819667 would imply that you only know it to 0.1 m in the first case or to 0.00000001 m in the second. You should only report as many significant figures as are consistent with the estimated error. The quantity 0.428 m is said to have th ree significant digits, that is, three digits that make sense in terms of the measurement. Notice that this has nothing to do with the “number of decimal places”. The same measureme nt in centimeters would be 42.8 cm and still be a three significant figure . The accepted convention is that only one uncertain digit is to be r...

Failure Analysis and Prevention Dr. Dheerendra Kumar Dwivedi Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee Lecture - 21 General Procedure of Failure Analysis: NDT for Failure Analysis Hello I welcome you all in this presentation related with the subject failure analysis and prevention. And we are talking about the general practice and procedures for the failure analysis. And in this connection we have already talked about the 2 points, one was like the collection of the background information of the failed component and the second one was the preliminary examination of the failed component, and after this we have got the failed component we need to study the failed component with regard to the presence of discontinuities or the stresses which have been experienced by the component during the service. (Refer Slide Time: 01:00) So, for that purpose we need to perform the non-destructive testing. So, non-destructive testing, so non-destructive testing for failure analysis. So, what is the kind of a role of the NDT in failure analysis? So, you know the primary purpose of conducting the NDT on the failed component is a to basically identify the presence of discontinuities in the component if they are there. So, establishing establishing presence of discontinuities, defects, cracks, pores etcetera if they are present if any present in the present where. So, this presence is to be identified especially with regard to the certain locations like; I it may be near fracture surfaces or in the bulk base metal itself. So, there will be the, and this will be done for the 2 different purposes. the NDT of the bulk material will help us to see whether the material is sound or not or if it is having the inherited discontinuity due to the use of imperfect base metal itself. Or if the discontinuities are present or defects are present like cracks, and other things are present near the fracture surface then it may indicate that either these have been caused by the service conditions or these were presented due to the various regions related with the improper manufacturing. Ah. So, once these are identified identification and establishment of these discontinuities is done, basically with regard to the shape and the size of a discontinuities ah. So, the main aim is a to relate the possible contribution of these discontinuities with the failure or fracture. So, if the discontinuities are there of the large size at the critical location then they of course, can be considered as a major possible contributor towards the failure, but that will be established only through the fracture mechanics analysis of the entire situation in light of the size and shape and the location of these discontinuities in the main component which has failed. So, it provides the basis for the failure analysis due to the presence of the discontinuities if they are established through the NDT. So, this is one of the aspects and another one is to do the analysis with regard to the approximate loading of the machine component, or the stress induced in a particular part it also indicates the kind of the strain especially in especially in the high strain areas. So, these are some of the things apart from that it can also help us to see if there is any presence of the residual stresses in the component and if they have contributed towards the failure. So, these are the 2 types of the things which can be done through the use of NDT in connection with the failure analysis. So, establishing the presence of discontinuities and then investigating their role towards the failure. And the second one is like the kind of the load which has acted on to the machine or a particular component kind of stresses which have been is induced or what is the effect of the service conditions in terms of the load on to the strain which has been induced or the kind of residual stresses where which were there which were present. So, apart from the design load if we are able to establish this through the NDT; that the component has been subjected to the certain kind of the load and certain kind of the stresses which you are beyond the acceptable level for that particular component beyond the allowable level of the stresses for that component. So, this can be used as a possible way to relate with the failure. So, and it can also indicate the possibility of the accidental load or the abnormal load under which the failure has taken place with respect to the design load or the expected load. So, these are the 2 main objectives of conducting the NDT of the failed and one we are able to identify and establish the size, shape and the type of discontinuity is it is location, where they are present and then efforts will be made to relate them with the failure. So, and the second one is to identify that it will help to estimate the kind of the load stresses strain which have been induced as a result of the loading during the service. So, that can be related with the possibility of the normal load or abnormal load accidental load so likewise. So, now how it is conducted? So for establishing the defects and the discontinuities. (Refer Slide Time: 07:45) In the failed component, we have one category of the methods and for establishing the load stresses strain we have another category of the method. So, this falls under the experimental stress analysis. And a for determining or establishing the defects and discontinuities in the failed component we have the another category of the methods. So, we will be talking about these methods in detail. So, there are 4 5 common methods of the establishing the discontinuities and defects in the failed component ah, like liquid penetrant test this is also known as DPT dye penetrant test this is one. Second is the magnetic particle test, third is et current test, 4th is ultrasonic test, and the fifth is like radio graphy test wherein we have like X ray or the gamma ray testing of the metals. So, each type of the test of for certain advantages and disadvantages over the others so, we will take up each type of the test one by one sequentially. So, like say the first is liquid penetrant test. (Refer Slide Time: 09:40) This is also known as dye penetrant test. This test is primarily used for the surface defects, which may be in form of the like cracks, pores which are open or the blow holes are like in weld joints, crater cracks, crater cracks or undercuts all these things can be easily established with the help of the dye penetrant test. So, this is primarily for the surface cracks. So, very fine pores and the cracks etcetera can be easily identified and established with regard to their size and location where they are present. (Refer Slide Time: 10:46) So, in this set test what we do basically like say if this is the component and it is having some kind of crack like this. (Refer Slide Time: 10:55) So, first of all the surface to be inspected of the failed component is cleaned. And after the cleaning we apply the dye over the surface. So, dye is basically thin liquid metal with the color so kerosene kind of thing can be used for this purpose with the color. So, whenever it is a spread over the surface so, thin liquid by the capillary action seeped into or gets filled into those fine pores or cracks and once this is given sometime after spraying the this one is cleaned. So, after cleaning all these things are basically removed from the surface. And thereafter we apply developer, so developer is sprayed is spread over the surface. So, when the developer is applied developer or the chalk powder is spread over like the chalk powder n is one of the form of applying the developer. So, since the dye has already been cleaned from the surface so all those regions where from it has been completely removed. The developer or chalk powder will not have any change of it is color, but wherever there is a pore or there is a crack at that location the developer will absorb the liquid dye which has seeped into these locations of the cracks and the pores. So, and these areas your there will be change of colour. So, the location where the change of color in the developer is taking place or the location where or the length up to which this change in color is taking place these 2 things will be indicating the size and the location. So, the distance up to which there is a change in color that will be indicating. The size of the discontinuities similarly where the change in color is taking place that will be indicating the location where such kind of the discontinuity is present. So, this kind of method can be used on any kind of the material whether it is a magnetic, non-magnetic, metallic, non-metallic, electrical conducting, non-electrical conducting etcetera. (Refer Slide Time: 13:55) The next method is the magnetic magnetic particle test. this test is basically used for the surface and near surface defects mostly these may be in the form of the, like say mostly these may be in the form of like cracks or pores etcetera ah, but, but very the deep surface defects cannot be established and identified through the magnetic particle test this is one thing, second mostly the ferromagnetic materials. So, the discontinuities and the defect in ferromagnetic materials can be evaluated or assessed by this method. (Refer Slide Time: 14:55) For non-magnetic materials and the poorly magnetic materials it cannot be applied with and therefore, mainly this one is applied for in the ferromagnetic materials. (Refer Slide Time: 15:19) So, mostly for like say the steels the cast iron kind of the components their discontinuities can be easily checked through the this magnetic particle test. To understand this test we need to see the certain basics of the magnetism. (Refer Slide Time: 15:37) Where we know that in mag each magnet there is a north pole and there is a south pole. So, the magnetic lines of the forces take exit from the north pole and...

Missions A mission is: The ‘fundamental objective(s) of an entity expressed in general terms’. (CIMA Official Terminology) The mission therefore is the basic purpose of the organisation and tries to identify the reason it exists. Ultimately the strategies of the organisation should be designed to support the accomplishment of this mission. It is important that the organisation is able to communicate its mission both internally and externally, which requires the creation of a mission statement. ‘The mission says why you do what you do, not the means by which you do it.’ Mission statements Peter Drucker A mission statement is: A ‘published statement, apparently of the entity’s fundamental objective(s). This may or may not summarise the true mission of the entity’. (CIMA Official Terminology) 32 Chapter 2 Essentially, the mission statement is a statement in writing that outlines the organisation’s mission and summarises the reasoning and values that underpin its operations. There is no ‘correct’ format for the mission statement and it will vary in style and length for each organisation. However, typically it is a short, punchy (and hopefully memorable) explanation of the reason the organisation exists. Mission statements will therefore typically have some or all of the following characteristics: • usually a brief statement of no more than a page in length (often much shorter) • very general statement of entity culture • states the aims (or purposes) of the organisation • states the business areas in which the organisation intends to operate • open-ended (not stated in quantifiable terms) • does not include commercial terms, such as profit • not time-assigned • forms a basis of communication to the people inside the organisation and to people outside the organisation • used to formulate goal statements, objectives and short-term targets • guides the direction of the entity’s strategy and as such is part of management information. Mission statements fulfil a number of purposes: • to communicate to all the stakeholder groups – everyone involved in the organisation will be made aware of its mission and should therefore know what to expect from the organisation. • to help develop a desired corporate culture – by communicating core values, policies and expected standards of behaviour to key groups, such as employees. • to assist in strategic planning – the organisation should ensure that its strategies are consistent with its overall mission and therefore its corporate values. The mission statement can also be used as a way of screening out potentially unsuitable strategies. However there are a number of criticisms of mission statements, including: • they may not represent the actual values of the organisation – as evidenced by the official CIMA definition of a mission statement. • they are often vague – mission statements tend to be stated in very general terms, using phrases that are difficult to measure (such as Coca Cola’s desire to ‘refresh the world’). • they are often ignored – mission statements are often seen as a public relations exercise and are not used by employees or managers when developing strategies. • they may become quickly outdated – especially in fast-moving industries. 34 Chapter 2 The process of creating a mission statement The process of writing a mission statement Mission statements are normally drafted by the senior managers or directors of the organisation, as they are uniquely positioned to understand the needs and aims of the business at a high level. Usually the first step in creating a mission statement is to analyse the stakeholders of the organisation – customers, shareholders and employees (amongst others). More detail on this stage can be found later in this chapter. The directors of the company should identify the needs and aims of these stakeholders. They can then attempt to create a mission statement that reflects these aims and that shows how the organisation wants to relate to the stakeholders. A draft mission statement can then be written and distributed to key stakeholders for review. Any feedback can be built into the final mission statement, which can then be published and widely distributed to as many interested parties as possible. The life span of a mission statement There are no set rules on how long a mission statement will be appropriate for an organisation. It should be reviewed periodically to ensure it still reflects the company’s environment. If the market or key stakeholders have changed since the mission statement was written, then it may no longer be appropriate. Vision statements (5 minutes) Vision statements are often confused with mission statements, but the two are subtly different. While a mission statement defines the present purpose and state of an organisation, the vision statement identifies the ideal position that the company wants to reach within the medium to long-term. It is, essentially, the longer term aspirations of the organisation. Vision statements help give a longer term direction to the organisation’s strategies and are designed to help staff make decisions and behave in a way that helps move the company towards its ideal long-term position. Unfortunately, they have many of the same drawbacks as mission statements. Illustration 4 – mission or vision? The main difference between vision and mission is illustrated by the statements produced by Microsoft: Mission statement: To help people and businesses throughout the world realise their full potential. Vision statement: A personal computer in every home running Microsoft software. This shows that the mission statement focuses on the company’s present operations. The vision shows the ideal state that the company wishes to achieve in the future. 3 Values The values of the organisation describe the core ethics or principles which the organisation will abide by, no matter what circumstances it might find itself in. The values will help drive the behaviour of the business, and guide the actions of management, employees and other stakeholders, such as suppliers. Appropriate values that are clearly stated and adhered to serve a number of purposes for the organisation: • to guide staff behaviour – everyone involved in the organisation will be expected to share and exhibit its values, resulting in suitable strategic and operational decisions being made. Generating strategic options: Mission, vision, values and stakeholders • to demonstrate integrity and accountability to external stakeholders – by stating a commitment to set levels of behaviour, failing to adhere will naturally result in steps being taken against the business. • set the organisation apart from its competitors – a proven adherence to stated values can be a source of competitive advantage should competitors fail to display the same expected standards of behaviour. • Reduce the risk of inappropriate behaviour from staff – particularly if the consequences of failing to act in an expected manner are made widely known. • Set the culture of the organisation. The values set out by the organisation will depend on its industry and circumstances. For example, an academic institution such as a university (and therefore not a business driven by profit) may well place great value on freedom of thought, the value of research, or intellectual rigour. On the other hand, a listed telecoms company may adopt values such as network reliability, customer service, and returns to shareholders. Objectives A mission is an open-ended statement of the firm's purpose and strategy. Objectives are more specific and seek to translate the mission into a series of mileposts for the organisation to follow. To be useful for motivation, evaluation and control purposes, objectives should be SMART: • Specific – clear statement, easy to understand • Measurable – to enable control and communication down the organisation • Attainable – it is pointless setting unachievable objectives • Relevant – appropriate to the mission and stakeholders • Timed – have a time period for achievement. Key issues In the same way that an organisation's overall strategic plans need to be translated into a hierarchy of lower level tactical and operational plans, there will be a hierarchy of objectives where the mission statement is translated into detailed strategic, tactical and operational objectives and targets. Typical issues this gives rise to are as follows: • Objectives drive action, so it is important that goal congruence is achieved and the agreed objectives do drive the desired strategy. • It can be difficult (although necessary) to prioritise multiple, often conflicting objectives. • This is made more complex when some objectives are hard to quantify (e.g. environmental impact). • There will be a mixture of financial and non-financial objectives. • There is always the danger of short-termism. • Objectives will vary across stakeholder groups and a strategy may satisfy some groups but not others. 39 Generating strategic options: Mission, vision, values and stakeholders Primary and secondary objectives Organisations will typically set themselves different types of objective, with some being more important than others. Primary objectives (also known as corporate objectives) are the major, overriding objectives of the organisation. They can be financial or non financial but relate to the organisation as a whole and, typically, the needs of its stakeholders. Secondary objectives directly relate to the various strategies that the organisation needs to adopt in order to meet its primary objective. For instance, a company may set itself a primary objective of growing returns for its shareholders. It will then need to implement a number of strategies to help it achieve this – each strategy having its own ‘secondary’ objective. These secondary objectives cou...

Company hierarchy refers to staff organised at different levels of responsibility in a 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. company. The values of a company are the beliefs and principles that the company considers important. Organisational behaviour looks at how people in an organisation work together and how this affects the organisation as a whole. A good atmosphere in a company means that employees enjoy working there and have good relationships with each other. A strategy is a plan for achieving an aim. Company structure means the way that the company is organised into departments and levels of responsibility. The image of a company refers to the way the company is seen by the public. An open-plan office is one which does not have walls dividing it into separate rooms. Flexibility refers to people or plans that can be changed easily to suit any new situation. EMPLOYEE RETENTION • Menial tasks – work which needs little skill • Sabbatical – a fixed period of time when someone takes an agreed break from their job • Promotion – the fact of getting a better paid, more responsible job • Work-life balance – a situation in which you are able to give the right amount of time and effort to your work and to your personal life outside work • Diverse work – jobs that are very different from each other TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Training courses can help to drive career development. A key part of the induction programme is to help new team members feel a part of the company’s culture. Mentoring can be used for specific job-related training or more general career development. One of the really useful things about being a mentee is that my mentor introduces me to very important people in the industry. An advantage of online courses is that you can do them whenever, wherever. Whatever type or delivery method a company uses, training and development opportunities are important for both staff and the company itself. • When a company needs to check the standards reached in training sessions - it can use benchmarking to do this. • Employers are finding that making e-learning training available to employees - adds to their motivation as they can access the courses when and where they like. • A person with emotional intelligence can - control their emotions and show empathy. • Practical courses are used to teach - skills for the workplace. • A skills set comprises - what a person can or can’t do. • Competency at a job can be learned - through both training and experience. • When there is rapport between people, - it means that there is understanding and friendly agreement in a conversation. • We generally begin with a - needs analysis so that we know which training programmes to offer to which employee. • Do you think that mentoring programmes help junior staff to develop? • What do you think a mentee can learn from a more experienced staff member? • Is it better to have an external trainer for courses or can someone from the company take on this role? • What kinds of things do people learn in job-related training? • Should training programmes be based on what people said in a needs analysis questionnaire, or defined by their managers? • Should a mentor encourage a mentee to solve problems using analytical thinking or tell them what to do based on their own experience? • Why can it be difficult to find the motivation to learn while on the job? • What helps you to be motivated? HUMAN RESOURCE STRATEGIES TRAINING • functional approach • job-orientated • task-orientated • short-term goals • skills specific to a job EITHER TRAINING OR DEVELOPMENT • blended learning • in-house training • external training • mentoring DEVELOPMENT • cross-functional approach • general business skillspreparation for future challenges • long-term goals • preparation for career FINANCE – RECESSIONS AND DEPRESSIONS 1. An investment is something you buy, such as shares, bonds or property, to make a long- term profit. 2. All the money that you have saved, especially in a bank or financial institution is called savings. 3. Losses describe the situation when a company has less money than it did before, for example because sales have gone down. 4. 5. 6. 7. The business of buying and selling stocks and shares is called the stock market. When you are not able to pay your debts, this is called bankruptcy. A(n) loan is an amount of money that you borrow from a bank, financial institution, etc. A(n) credit crunch happens when borrowing money becomes difficult because banks reduce the amount they lend and charge high interest rates. 8. A legal arrangement by which you borrow money from a bank in order to buy a house, and pay back the money over a period of years is called a(n) mortgage. 9. A(n) recession is a difficult time when there is less trade or business activity in a country than usual. 10. A long period during which there is very little business activity is the worst type of financial crisis and is known as an economic depression. • To drop means to fall to a much lower level or amount, or decline. • To go bankrupt is to become insolvent, or without enough money to pay what you owe. • To lend is to let someone borrow money or something that belongs to you for a short time. • To recover is to return to a normal condition after a period of trouble or difficulty. • To boom means to grow rapidly, or be very successful as a business or trade. • To bail someone out means to help a person or a company that is in financial difficulty. • Profitability - the amount of profit a company makes • Make your mark - have an important or permanent effect on something • Boost - improve something and make it more successful • Bottom line - the amount of money that a business makes or loses • Make up ground - replace something that has been lost; become successful again DIGITAL BUSINESS Being disruptive usually refers to causing problems and preventing something from continuing in its usual way. In technology, it refers to an innovation that creates a new market and disrupts existing ones, displacing established companies and products, for example the mobile phone replacing fixed phones. 1. 2. 3. In the cloud’ refers to having software or space for storing information on the internet, rather than on your own computer. A data dump is the act of copying information from one computer to another. Data mining uses a computer to examine large amounts of data, for example about customers, and collect information that is not easily seen. 4. 5. 6. Conversion in digital marketing is the number of sales generated in relation to the number of visits to a website. In computing, a tool refers to a piece of software designed to do a particular task.

# Oral exam prep # Notes ## 1. Physical Activity Guidelines **Where they came from:**&#x47;uidelines come from the WHO and national health bodies, based on decades of research showing physical activity prevents disease and improves long-term health. **Prescriptions:** * Adults: **150 min moderate** or **75 min vigorous** activity weekly * **Strength training**: at least **2 days/week** * Older adults: include **balance training** **Why:** Supports cardiovascular health, muscle and bone health, mental health, independence, and reduces risk of chronic disease. *** ## 2. Device-Based Measurement **What it is:** Using objective tools to quantify PA instead of relying on self-reports. **Examples:** * Accelerometers * Pedometers * Heart-rate monitors * GPS devices * Multi-sensor wearables **Strengths:** * Objective → no recall bias * Captures intensity, frequency, duration * Useful for population surveillance **Weaknesses:** * Expensive * Participant burden * Doesn’t capture context * Data processing is complex *** ## 3. Good Sources of PA & Health Information in Ireland * Healthy Ireland (policy + guidelines) * HSE website (public health guidance) * Sport Ireland (programmes, participation data) * CSO (population & health stats) * Healthy Ireland Survey (annual PA data) * Public Health Agency NI (if NI context needed) * WHO Europe (international guidance) *** ## 4. Measuring PA & PA-Related Outcomes **PA Measures:** * Device-based: accelerometers, pedometers * Self-report: IPAQ, GPAQ, travel surveys * Fitness tests: VO2max, step tests **PA-Related Outcomes:** * Sedentary time * Strength (handgrip, sit-to-stand) * Balance * Anthropometrics (BMI, WC) * Clinical markers (BP, glucose, lipids) * Psychosocial outcomes (motivation, QoL) **Key message:** Use multiple methods because PA is multi-dimensional. *** ## 5. Evaluating PA in Ireland * Healthy Ireland Survey (IPAQ-SF) * CSPPA Study (children & adolescents) * Sport Ireland reports * NPAP monitoring (National Physical Activity Plan indicators) *** ## 6. Men on the Move (MOM) **What it is:**&#x41; community-based PA programme targeting physically inactive middle-aged men, delivered via Sport Ireland and Local Sports Partnerships. **Core Components:** * Group sessions (2×/week) * Aerobic + strength training * Behaviour change support (goal setting, social support) * Designed for men who typically avoid structured programmes **Why it works:** * Male-friendly environment * Strong social support * Accessible and low cost * Gradual progression keeps men engaged **Evidence:** * ↑ Fitness * ↑ PA levels * ↓ Weight & waist circumference * High retention * Good acceptability *** ## 7. Study Designs in PA Research **Observational:** * **Cross-sectional:** Snapshot in time, shows associations only. * **Prospective/Longitudinal:** Follow people over time; stronger for causality. **Experimental:** * **RCTs:** Random allocation to intervention/control. Gold standard for causality (e.g., lifestyle vs. metformin for diabetes prevention). *** ## 8. Relative Risk (RR) * RR compares disease risk between groups. * Example: inactive 4% vs. active 2% → RR = 2.0 (inactive = double risk). * RR flipped: active RR = 0.5 (half risk). * **Confidence intervals:** If CI crosses 1.0 → uncertain effect. *** ## 9. Systems Approach to Physical Activity * PA is shaped by the **whole system**, not just individual choices. * Influencing sectors: transport, schools, workplaces, health services, community organisations, policy. * These sectors must collaborate, not operate separately. * Focus: change environments and structures so activity becomes easy and normal. * Small programmes alone cannot shift population activity levels. **Example:**&#x4D;en on the Move acts as a systems approach by combining community delivery, group support, social connection, and accessible structures. *** ## 10. Older Adults Staying Active in a Digital World (Webinar) **Are web/phone interventions viable?** Yes. **Why they work:** * High digital use among older adults (60–80%) * COVID showed strong engagement * Removes barriers: travel, mobility issues, weather * Home-based strength/balance is feasible * Live sessions maintain structure, social contact, and accountability **Challenges:** * Low confidence with platforms (Zoom/Teams) * Tech frustrations (sound/camera issues) * Lower motivation without in-person supervision * Harder to monitor safety (falls, conditions) * Device/internet costs * Harder to teach strength/balance online **Bottom line:**&#x45;ffective if tech support is strong, sessions are simple and safe, and social interaction is built in. Hybrid models are ideal. *** ## 11. Prompting Clients for Moderate Pace Methods: * % max HR: **64–79%** * Walking pace (mile/km time) * RPE * Talk test * Step count * Time to cover distance **Importance:** Helps people understand what “moderate” actually feels like. *** ## 12. Accelerometry **What it measures:** * Body accelerations * Frequency, duration, intensity * Often tri-axial (movement in all directions) **Advantages:** * Real-time concurrent measurement * Detailed intensity/frequency/duration * Stores weeks of data * Low burden * Relatively cheap **Disadvantages:** * Misses certain activities (cycling, stair climbing, load carrying) * Poor capture of upper-body movement when worn on hip * Data cleaning and analysis are time-consuming *** ## 13. Formative Evaluation Occurs during planning/pre-implementation. Includes: * **Problem definition:** norms, behaviours, needs assessment * **Solution generation:** evidence review, theory, practitioner input * **Logic model:** map inputs → actions → outputs → outcomes * **Pilot testing:** observe or run mini trials *** ## 14. Implementation (All Content in One Place) Implementation = putting a proven program into real-world practice. Key points: * Bridges the gap between **research evidence** and **daily practice** * Fidelity is critical → deliver as designed * Without good implementation, even excellent interventions fail * Deals with real-world barriers: staffing, resources, local culture *** ## 15. Scale-Up (All Content in One Place) Scale-up = expanding a successful program from small pilot → regional → national. **Why it matters:** * Small pilots help almost no one unless expanded * Maximises population health impact * Ensures programmes survive beyond initial funding **Requirements:** * Fidelity + flexibility * Workforce training * Sustainable funding * Monitoring & evaluation * Strong partnerships (HSE, Sport Ireland, communities) **Barriers:** * Cost * Lack of staff * Low political priority * Inequalities in access *** ## 16. RE-AIM Framework (For Implementation & Scale-Up) **Purpose:** Evaluate how well interventions work in real-world settings. **Components:** * **Reach:** Who participates? Who is left out? * **Effectiveness:** What benefits occur? Any harms? * **Adoption:** Which settings/organisations take it up? * **Implementation:** Was it delivered with fidelity? At what cost? * **Maintenance:** Does it last over time? Individual + organisational. **Why it matters:**&#x52;E-AIM helps ensure PA programmes don’t just work in theory – they work for real people, in real settings, and keep working long-term. ​ ## <u>Potential questions:</u> **✅ FORMATIVE EVALUATION / NEEDS ASSESSMENT** **1. What is a formative evaluation?**&#x49;t’s early-stage evaluation used to shape and improve a programme before it’s fully launched. **2. What is a needs assessment?**&#x49;t identifies the problem, who is affected, and what risks the programme must target. **3. Why is a needs assessment important?**&#x49;t ensures the programme addresses a real need instead of guessing. **4. How does a needs assessment guide planning?**&#x49;t tells you which behaviours, risk factors, and populations to focus on. **5. What data is used in needs assessments?**&#x53;urveys, interviews, epidemiological data, and health records. **6. How does it differ from summative evaluation?**&#x46;ormative = planning; summative = measuring results at the end. **7. What happens if you skip a needs assessment?**&#x59;ou risk designing a useless or ineffective programme. **8. How do you identify modifiable risks?**&#x42;y analysing data on behaviours and health patterns. **9. Why understand the target group?**&#x49;t makes the programme relevant and doable. **10. What tools help in needs assessment?**&#x53;urveys, focus groups, literature reviews, clinical data. **✅ SYSTEMS / PARTNERSHIP APPROACH** **11.

Explain how ATP is resynthesised ATP is resynthesised by adding a phosphate group back onto ADP (adenosine diphosphate his requires energy. The body gets this energy from the breakdown of fuels such as: Phosphocreatine (PC) Glucose (anaerobically or aerobically) Fats (aerobically) Identify the name of the 3 energy systems ATP-PC System (also called the Phosphocreatine or Alactic system) Anaerobic Glycolytic System (also called the Lactic Acid system) Aerobic System (Oxygen system) Explain how long PC will supply energy for high intensity work before stores are depleted Phosphocreatine (PC) can supply energy for about 8–10 seconds of high-intensity work before its stores are depleted. During very explosive activities (like sprinting or jumping), PC breaks down rapidly to resynthesise ATP, but because the stores in the muscles are small, they run out quickly — usually within 8 to 12 seconds, with 10 seconds being the commonly accepted average. Explain how long it takes to fully replenish the ATP-PC system once it is depleted It takes about 2–3 minutes to fully replenish the ATP-PC system once it is depleted. Here’s the breakdown: Around 50% of phosphocreatine (PC) is restored within 30 seconds. About 75% is restored in 60 seconds. Full resynthesis usually requires 2–3 minutes, depending on fitness level and oxygen availability. So, complete recovery of the ATP-PC system takes roughly 3 minutes. Identify the fuel source used when the lactic acid system is contributing to energy production The fuel source used by the lactic acid system is glucose (or glycogen, which is the stored form of glucose in the muscles and liver). So the answer is: Glucose/Glycogen. Identify the by-product of the lactic acid system Lactic Acid is created as a by-product of the lactic acid system which comes to affect 30-60 seconds of anaerobic excelsis or short intensity excersies. Explain how this by-product can affect performance It causes a burning feeling in the muscles. It makes the muscles tire more quickly. It becomes harder to maintain power, speed, or intensity. So, the build-up of lactic acid leads to fatigue, which reduces performance during hard efforts like sprinting or fast-paced exercise. Recall how long the lactic acid system can be used (depending on intensity& duration) 30-60 seconds high intensity workouts, 1-2 minutes moderate intensity workouts Explain how to remove lactic acid from the muscles The best way to remove lactic acid is active recovery, supported by oxygen intake, hydration, and light movement to keep blood flowing. Identify the order in which the body breaks down the 3 fuels for aerobic energy contribution carbohydrates (glucose/glycogen) – used first because they are the quickest to break down for ATP. Fats (triglycerides) – used once carbohydrate stores start to decline, especially during longer, moderate-intensity exercise. Proteins (amino acids) – used last and only in small amounts, usually during prolonged exercise or when carbohydrate and fat stores are low. Explain how long the body can utilise the aerobic system (depending on fuel source availability) The aerobic system can provide energy from minutes to several hours, with carbs fuelling shorter durations at higher intensity and fats supporting longer, lower-intensity activity. Explain the following training principles F, D, I, PO, S, V Frequency, intensity, Progressive overload, Specificity, variation Summary: Frequency: How often Intensity: How hard Progressive Overload: Gradual increase Specificity: Targeted to goals Variation: Change to prevent plateau and maintain interest Identify which two principles relate directly to specificity Specificity – by definition, it means training should match the sport, muscle groups, energy systems, or fitness goals. Variation – adjusting exercises, intensity, or type can help maintain relevance to the specific goal and prevent plateau, supporting specificity over time. So, Specificity and Variation work together to ensure training is targeted and effective. Explain the importance of progressive overload in a training program Progressive overload ensures consistent improvement, helps achieve goals, and keeps training safe and effective. Recall the 5 training methods (FCIRC) Circuit, Fartlek, Interval, Resistance, Continuous. Explain the benefits of each method circuit Training Description: Series of different exercises performed in rotation. Benefits: Improves overall fitness (strength, endurance, flexibility, cardiovascular fitness). Can target multiple muscle groups. Can be adapted for all fitness levels. Keeps training varied and engaging. 2. Fartlek Training Description: “Speed play” — alternates between fast and slow running, usually outdoors. Benefits: Improves aerobic and anaerobic fitness simultaneously. Develops speed, endurance, and recovery. Flexible and less structured, reducing boredom. 3. Interval Training Description: Periods of high-intensity work followed by rest or low-intensity recovery. Benefits: Improves speed, power, and cardiovascular fitness. Increases anaerobic and aerobic capacity. Efficient for burning calories in a short time. 4. Resistance Training Description: Uses weights, resistance bands, or bodyweight to strengthen muscles. Benefits: Increases muscular strength and endurance. Improves bone density and joint stability. Boosts metabolism and helps with body composition. 5. Continuous Training Description: Steady-state exercise performed at a moderate intensity for a prolonged period (e.g., jogging, swimming). Benefits: Improves aerobic fitness and cardiovascular endurance. Strengthens the heart and lungs. Easy to monitor intensity and safe for beginners.

mondialisation ? Les mers et les océans sont au centre de la mondialisation pour plusieurs raisons : 1. Ce sont des espaces de circulation Plus de 80 % du commerce mondial passe par les routes maritimes. Les navires transportent des marchandises entre tous les continents. → Les océans connectent les pays et facilitent les échanges. 2. Ce sont des espaces riches en ressources Pétrole, gaz, poissons, minerais, énergie (éoliennes offshore). → Ces ressources sont essentielles pour l’économie mondiale. 3. Ce sont des espaces de communication Les câbles sous-marins transportent internet et les communications internationales. → Sans eux, la mondialisation numérique n’existerait pas. 4. Ce sont des espaces stratégiques Les grands ports (Rotterdam, Shanghai, Singapour…) jouent un rôle clé. Certains espaces sont convoités, ce qui crée tensions et rivalités. Conclusion (phrase simple) Les mers et les océans sont au cœur de la mondialisation car ils permettent la circulation des marchandises, fournissent des ressources indispensables et relient les pays par les communications. Warum stehen die Meere und Ozeane im Zentrum der Globalisierung? 1. Sie sind wichtige Verkehrswege Ein Großteil des weltweiten Handels wird über Schiffe abgewickelt. → Die Ozeane verbinden Länder und ermöglichen schnellen Warenaustausch. 2. Sie besitzen wertvolle Ressourcen Öl, Gas, Fische, Mineralien und Energiequellen sind für die Weltwirtschaft sehr wichtig. 3. Sie sind Kommunikationsräume Unterseekabel übertragen Internet und Daten rund um die Welt. 4. Sie haben eine strategische Bedeutung Große Häfen und wichtige Seewege machen die Meere geopolitisch sehr wichtig. Kurzsatz für die Klassenarbeit „Meere und Ozeane stehen im Zentrum der Globalisierung, weil sie den weltweiten Handel ermöglichen, viele wichtige Ressourcen liefern und die Länder der Welt durch Kommunikation und Transport verbinden.“ La mondialisation par la mer Les mers et océans sont des espaces de circulation et d´echanges Les mers et les océans jouent un rôle essentiel dans la mondialisation. Cela signifie que : 1. Les mers et les océans sont des espaces de circulation La majorité du commerce mondial se fait par bateau. Les navires transportent des marchandises (pétrole, nourriture, vêtements, objets électroniques…) entre les continents. Les routes maritimes relient les grands ports du mondes(ex. Shanghai, Rotterdam, Singapour). 2. Les mers et les océans sont des espaces d’échanges Ce sont des lieux où s’échangent des produits, des richesses et aussi des informations. Les ports permettent le transfert des marchandises vers les trains, camions et usines. Les câbles sous-marins transportent internet et les communications mondiales. 3. Importance pour la mondialisation Sans le transport maritime, le commerce mondial serait beaucoup plus lent et beaucoup plus cher. Les océans rendent possible la circulation rapide des produits et connectent les économies du monde entier. Phrase simple pour ta Klassenarbeit « Les mers et les océans sont indispensables à la mondialisation parce qu’ils permettent la circulation des marchandises et des personnes, et favorisent les échanges économiques entre les différents pays du monde. » La mondialisation par la mer – Die Globalisierung über das Meer „Die Meere und Ozeane sind Räume der Zirkulation und des Austauschs.“ Das bedeutet: 1. Meere und Ozeane sind Verkehrs- und Transportwege Ein großer Teil des weltweiten Handels wird über Schiffe abgewickelt. Auf dem Seeweg werden Waren wie Öl, Lebensmittel, Kleidung oder elektronische Geräte transportiert. Wichtige Seewege verbinden große Häfen in der ganzen Welt (z. B. Shanghai, Rotterdam, Singapur). 2. Meere und Ozeane sind Räume des Austauschs In Häfen werden Waren aus- und umgeladen und anschließend weiter mit Lastwagen oder Zügen transportiert. Auch Informationen laufen über das Meer: Unterseekabel übertragen das weltweite Internet. 3. Bedeutung für die Globalisierung Ohne den Seehandel wäre die Globalisierung kaum möglich, weil der Transport langsamer, teurer und komplizierter wäre. Die Ozeane verbinden Länder und Kontinente, ermöglichen schnellen Warenfluss und fördern wirtschaftliche Zusammenarbeit. Kurze Erklärung (für die Klassenarbeit geeignet) „Meere und Ozeane sind wichtig für die Globalisierung, weil sie als große Verkehrswege dienen. Über sie werden Waren und Informationen zwischen den Ländern ausgetauscht. Dadurch sind die Weltwirtschaft und die Länder eng miteinander verbunden.“ Des espaces riches en ressources, mais convoités Das bedeutet: „Räume, die reich an Ressourcen sind, aber begehrt werden.“ 1. Richesse en ressources Les mers et les océans contiennent beaucoup de ressources : Ressources énergétiques : pétrole, gaz. Ressources halieutiques : poissons (pour l’alimentation). Ressources minérales : métaux dans les fonds marins. Ressource de transport : routes maritimes importantes. Ressource d’espace : énergie marémotrice, éoliennes offshore. 2. Des espaces convoités Ces ressources attirent beaucoup de pays et d’entreprises : Les États veulent contrôler des zones maritimes riches. Il y a parfois des conflits (ex. en mer de Chine méridionale). Les entreprises veulent exploiter le pétrole, le gaz, les poissons. La demande mondiale augmente → les espaces maritimes deviennent stratégiques. 3. Enjeu pour la mondialisation Les richesses maritimes sont essentielles à l’économie mondiale. Mais leur exploitation peut créer des tensions politiques et écologiques. Räume, die reich an Ressourcen sind, aber begehrt werden 1. Reich an Ressourcen Die Meere und Ozeane enthalten viele wertvolle Rohstoffe: Energiequellen: Erdöl, Erdgas Fischbestände: wichtige Nahrungsquelle Mineralien und Metalle: in Tiefseeböden Energiegewinnung: Offshore-Windparks, Gezeitenenergie Wichtige Verkehrswege für den Welthandel 2. Begehrt und umkämpft Weil diese Ressourcen so wertvoll sind, wollen viele Länder und Firmen Zugang dazu: Staaten streiten sich um Seegebiete (z. B. Südchinesisches Meer). Unternehmen wollen Fischfanggebiete, Bohrrechte und Abbaugebiete nutzen. Die Nachfrage der Welt steigt → Konkurrenz und Konflikte wachsen. 3. Bedeutung für die Globalisierung Diese Rohstoffe sind für die Weltwirtschaft sehr wichtig. Aber ihre Nutzung führt zu politischen Spannungen und Umweltproblemen. Kurzer Satz für die Klassenarbeit „Meere und Ozeane sind reich an wichtigen Ressourcen wie Öl, Gas oder Fisch, und deshalb sehr begehrt. Viele Länder wollen diese Bereiche kontrollieren, was oft zu Konkurrenz und Konflikten führt.“ Des milieux fragiles et menacés, qu’il faut préserver Des milieux fragiles et menacés, qu’il faut préserver = „Empfindliche und bedrohte Lebensräume, die geschützt werden müssen.“ 1. Des milieux fragiles Les mers et les océans abritent des écosystèmes très sensibles : les coraux, menacés par le réchauffement climatique, les mangroves, qui protègent les côtes, les zones de reproduction des poissons, la faune marine (tortues, mammifères marins…). Ces milieux peuvent être facilement détruits ou perturbés. 2. Des milieux menacés Ils sont menacés par : la pollution (plastiques, hydrocarbures, produits chimiques), la surpêche, le réchauffement climatique (acidification, hausse de la température de l’eau), le transport maritime et les activités humaines, l’exploitation des ressources. 3. Pourquoi il faut les préserver Ils sont essentiels pour la biodiversité. Ils protègent les côtes et régulent le climat. Ils fournissent nourriture et ressources à l’humanité. → Leur disparition serait un énorme danger pour l’équilibre de la planète Empfindliche und bedrohte Lebensräume, die geschützt werden müssen 1. Empfindliche Lebensräume In den Meeren und Ozeanen gibt es sehr verletzliche Ökosysteme: Korallenriffe, die durch Erwärmung sterben, Mangroven, die die Küsten schützen, Laichgebiete von Fischen, Meerestiere wie Schildkröten oder Wale. Diese Lebensräume reagieren sehr empfindlich auf Veränderungen. 2. Bedrohungen Sie sind bedroht durch: Verschmutzung (Plastik, Öl, Chemikalien), Überfischung, Klimawandel (Erwärmung, Versauerung der Ozeane), Schifffahrt und menschliche Nutzung, Rohstoffabbau und industrielle Aktivitäten. 3. Warum man sie schützen muss Sie sind wichtig für die Biodiversität. Sie schützen Küsten und beeinflussen das Klima. Sie liefern Nahrungsmittel und Ressourcen. → Wenn sie zerstört werden, gefährdet das Umwelt und Menschheit. Kurzer Satz für die Klassenarbeit „Einige Meeresgebiete sind sehr empfindliche und bedrohte Ökosysteme, die durch Verschmutzung, Überfischung und Klimawandel stark gefährdet sind. Deshalb müssen sie unbedingt geschützt und nachhaltig genutzt werden Je sais définir et utiliser dans une phrase DÉFINITIONS 1. Mondialisation Processus d’intensification des échanges (marchandises, informations, personnes) entre les différentes régions du monde. 2. Conteneur Grande boîte métallique standardisée utilisée pour transporter des marchandises sur les bateaux, trains ou camions. 3. Porte-conteneur Navire géant spécialement conçu pour transporter des milliers de conteneurs. 4. Façade maritime Grande région littorale qui rassemble plusieurs ports importants et ouverts sur les routes maritimes mondiales (ex : la Northern Range en Europe). 5. Zone Économique Exclusive (ZEE) Espace maritime situé jusqu’à 200 milles nautiques d’un pays, dans lequel ce pays peut exploiter les ressources (poissons, pétrole…). 6. Hydrocarbures offshore Pétrole et gaz exploités en mer, souvent grâce à des plateformes pétrolières. 7. Ressource halieutique Ressources issues de la pêche : poissons, crustacés, fruits de mer. 8. Marée noire Pollution massive causée par le déverseme...
