Did you know there are only four sentence types in English?<br />
<br />
To improve your writing and reading skills in English, I'll teach you all about simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex sentences in this grammar video. You'll learn how to identify<br />
the independent and dependent clauses. Don't worry; it's easier than it sounds!<br />
<br />
By learning to identify and use these sentence structures, you'll make your writing more interesting and dynamic. I'll also share many example sentences in the lesson, so you can practice with my help. http://www.engvid.com/the-4-english-s...<br />
<br />
TRANSCRIPT<br />
Hi. Welcome back to www.engvid.com. I'm Adam. Today's lesson is a writing lesson,<br />
but it's also a spoken English lesson. It's about anything to do with English, because we're going to<br />
be looking at sentence types. Now, of course, when you speak, you're using all kinds of sentence types. But, especially in writing, it's important to know the different types of sentences,<br />
because, especially if you're going to be writing tests, they want to see sentence variety.<br />
<br />
And even if you're not writing tests, anything you write, if you're using only one type of sentence, your writing becomes very bland, very boring, very hard to follow, because it's a little bit monotone. So what you need to do is you need to vary...<br />
<br />
You need a variety of sentence structures in your writing to give it a little bit more life. Okay?<br />
Luckily, you only need to know four sentence types. We have simple sentences,<br />
compound sentences, complex sentences, and compound-complex. Now, this is not exactly easy,<br />
but it's not exactly hard, either. If you figure out what you need to have in each one,<br />
in each sentence type, just make sure it's there. Okay? Let's start.<br />
<br />
A simple sentence has one independent clause. A little bit of review: What is an independent clause? An independent clause has a subject and a verb, and can complete an idea. It can stand by itself, because the idea in that clause is complete. I don't need to add anything else to it. Okay.<br />
<br />
A compound sentence has two or more independent clauses, joined by a conjunction.<br />
A compound conjunction: "and", "but", "or", "so", "for" (not very common), etc.<br />
<br />
So, we join two independent clauses with a compound conjunction. You can have more, but again, you have to be a little bit careful. Once you get to three, start to look for a way to finish<br />
your sentence, because if you get to the fourth, you already have a crazy sentence<br />
that has the... Runs the risk of being a run-on sentence. Eventually, you're going to make a mistake, you're going to miss something, and the whole sentence falls apart.<br />
I don't recommend three, but you can put three.<br />
<br />
Then we have a complex sentence. A complex sentence has one independent clause,<br />
plus one or more dependent clause. A dependent clause is a clause that has a subject and a verb,<br />
but cannot stand by itself. It is not a complete idea. It has some sort of relationship to<br />
the independent clause. We have three types of dependent clauses.<br />
We have noun clauses, we have adjective clauses, and we have adverb clauses. Okay?<br />
<br />
That's a whole separate lesson. You can look at that later. But you have to have one of these,<br />
plus one of these, and you have a complex sentence.<br />
<br />
Next we have a compound-complex sentence. Here you have two or more independent clauses, again, joined by a conjunction, and one or more dependent clause. Okay?<br />
<br />
So you have basically all the elements in this sentence.<br />
Then, once you have all this stuff, you can add as many complements, or basically extras,<br />
as you want. So, let's look at an example. We're going to start with the simple sentence:<br />
"Layla studied biology." Very simple. I have a subject, I have a verb, I have an object. Okay?<br />
This is a simple sentence. It's an independent clause; it can stand by itself as a complete idea.<br />
Now, I can add anything I want to this that is not another clause of any type, and it'll still be a simple sentence. So I can say: "My friend Layla studied biology in university." I'll just say "uni" for short.<br />
I have more information, but do I have a different type of sentence? No. It's still a simple sentence.<br />
Now, let's look at this sentence. First, let me read it to you: "Even with the weather being that nasty, the couple and their families decided to go ahead with the wedding as planned."<br />
Now you're thinking: "Wow, that's got to be a complex sentence", right? "It's so long.<br />
There's so much information in it." But, if we look at it carefully, it is still a simple sentence. Why? Because we only have one independent clause. Where is it? Well, find the subject and verb combination first. So, what is the subject in this sentence? I'll give you a few seconds, figure it out. Hit the pause key, look at it.<br />
<br />
Okay, we're back. Here is the subject: "the couple and their families".<br />
Now, don't get confused with this "and".<br />

<b>Blaming the messenger</b><br />
Everybody laughs about stress, but stress can change your brain. In a psychology lab, it's easy to show that stress interferes with your working memory, making you temporarily dumb. But stress can also trigger serious mental illnesses like bipolar disorder (manic depression) and schizophrenia.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Stress affects the prefrontal cortex, the executive section of the brain that regulates thought, behavior and emotion. But how? Perhaps through a messenger compound called protein kinase C (PKC).</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
When Amy Arnsten of Yale Medical School and her colleagues increased PKC levels in rats and monkeys, the animals got stupid. Before the test, they had an easy time finding a chocolate chip they had seen before. But after getting a chemical that increased their PKC levels, they had trouble finding this critical food.</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Then, when the researchers blocked PKC, the rats could again find the chips.</div>

In a second experiment, the researchers created the same picture by administering a chemical that simulates stress. As before, the decline was reversed by a PKC-blocking chemical.</div>

Bipolar disorder causes profound mood swings in 1 percent of adult Americans.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Schizophrenia causes hallucinations, delusions, disordered thinking, bizarre speech or behavior, and social withdrawal in 1.1 percent of American adults.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Curiously, both these brain diseases, according to Arnsten, "involve profound dysfunction of the prefrontal cortex, the most highly evolved part of the brain, which lets us concentrate, organize, plan for the future." The prefrontal cortex is the home of working memory, a short-term storage that helps you recall where you left your keys.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
But there's more: The prefrontal cortex also "inhibits inappropriate thoughts and lets you act appropriately socially," Arnsten adds. So a problem with the prefrontal cortex can prevent you from finding chocolate chips in a lab -- or impair impulse control, distraction, insight and judgment.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The present study grew from the observations of scientists like Husseini Manji of the National Institute of Mental Health, who found excess PKC in brains of people with bipolar disorder. But there are other reasons to wonder about the role of PKC in brain diseases. For example, some drugs for bipolar disorder and schizophrenia "reduce PKC very markedly" in rodent brains, Arnsten says, even though they "are very disparate molecules... and seemingly have nothing in common."</div>

Messing with the messenger<br />
If stress raises PKC levels, and PKC changes how the prefrontal cortex works, Arnsten says PKC could explain the role of stress in bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. "Often the first psychotic break happens when a teenager goes to college or to the military for the first time. Stress is often what puts them over the edge."</div>

Marinus Pharmaceuticals, of New Haven Conn., and the Stanley Medical Research Institute are now funding some of her research to see if PKC inhibitors can be used safely in humans. "We hope this might be a new direction for treating bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, because it would be acting inside the cell, and it might act more quickly," Arnsten says. "We hope that if it's more selective, there will be fewer side effects." </span></div>

<b>Learning vocabulary with cards<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
An excellent* way to learn new words is to make vocabulary cards.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The diagrams below show an example using the word <i>cat</i></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Here's how you do it:<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Write the word you want to learn on the front of the card (e.g. size A7 or A8).<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
On the back of the card, write either the translation of the word in your language,<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
or a definition of the word, or a gap sentence. If you write 2 or all 3 of these you will learn the word more quickly, and give yourself extra English practice. You could of course copy the definition<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and example sentence from the web page, but writing your own is the better choice.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
(If you write down a verb, it's best to put its infinitive form.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
So for example it's better to write "to purchase" than "purchased" or "to strike" than "struck".)<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Now imagine you have a stack of 20 words that you want to learn. To do this, you can test yourself<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
in many different ways. For example, you can look at the word and try to remember the translation </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
or definition; you can look at the gap sentence and try to think of the word that fits in it;<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
you can look at the word in your language and see if you know the English.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
If you get the answer right, write a tick in the left corner on side one of the card, put the card<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
at the back of your "To learn" stack, and take the next card. If you get it wrong, write a cross and put the card ten places from the front of your stack. When you have three ticks in a row on your card, you know the word and can put the card into a second stack, called the "Done" stack.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You should try and look at about 10-20 words each week in your "To learn stack";<o:p></o:p></div>

Today you're going to master words that even native speakers confuse!</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
You'll learn common words that you can use in academic and business situations.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
Whether in conversation or in writing, if you use these words correctly, you'll sound smart.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
But if you use the wrong word, you won't sound so smart. So join me and learn these words,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
as well as how to use them properly. We'll look at the following sets of words: affect & effect, principle & principal, compliment & complement, moral & morale & mortal, personal & personnel, censor & sensor & censure.<br />

TRANSCRIPT<br />
<br />
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
Hi. Welcome back to www.engvid.com. I'm Adam, and today's lesson: "Commonly Confused Words" is very important for those of you trying to learn vocabulary,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
but especially for those of you who need to write better. It's very important to write the correct word that you mean, and sometimes, the only difference between words is one letter,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
and this one letter makes a huge difference. Okay?</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
So we're going to look at six sets of commonly confused words.<br />
<br />
Now, we're going to start with "affect" and "effect", and the difference being the "a" or the "e". Now, this is one of those pair of words that all teachers in every ESL school,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
in every ESL class always teach students, but they don't necessarily teach it completely,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
so that's what we're going to look at today.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
"Affect", verb, in any situation you're looking at it, but it basically has two different meanings.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
One is to have an influence or to influence something, someone. It basically means to have some sort of power over something to make some sort of change.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
The noun, they go together, if something affects someone or something,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
then the result of that is the effect.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
Now, I'm stressing the "e" here just so you hear it, but in reality, in spoken and natural spoken English: "affect", "effect", "affect", "effect". It sounds almost the same,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
so you have to be very careful. You especially have to think about the context. Okay?</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
Context is very important in... With all these words, to know which one is being used,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
because the situation that you hear or read the word in will tell you which meaning it is.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
So the context is everything that is around the word. So "affect", to influence something;</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
"effect" is the result or what that influence has done to something or someone.<br />
<br />
"To affect" also means to move someone emotionally.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
So if you affect someone, it means you have an emotional...</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
You create an emotional reaction in them. Okay?</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
You can affect them to the point of tears, means you're making them sad,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
you're making them so happy that they're crying.<br />
<br />
Now, here's the surprising one that many people don't realize: "effect" can also be a verb.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
So most ESL teachers will tell you "affect" is a verb, "effect" is a noun, that's it.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
But "effect" can also be a verb, it means to bring about. Okay?</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
I'm actually going to write this down for you. Now, we especially talk about change.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
So, for example, a new manager comes into a department and he wants to effect a change,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
a corporate culture change. He wants to bring about or to cause a change.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
Now, this is a little bit of a formal word, it's a big of a high-end word. If you're writing the IELTS,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
or TOEFL, or SAT, this is a very good word to use as a verb, but make sure that you know</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
how to use it correctly before you try. Cause, bring about. So, that's these ones.<br />
<br />
Next, we have "principle" and "principal". They sound the same, but obviously, different endings. This "principle" is basically a fundamental truth. Something... Like, for example, if you're talking about a scientific principle, this is the truth, and from this truth, we can make other truths</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
or we can have other investigations into other areas. It's a fundamental truth.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
Now, when a person says that he or she has principles, and something goes against their principles, that means that they have a very, very strong belief, and they have a very strong way of doing something or looking at things, and other people can't change that. Okay? So that is a principle.<span style="background: aqua; mso-highlight: aqua;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b>A simple idea to improve children’s written work<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Deborah Sutton. Headteacher, Bassett Green Primary School</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Our ‘Work Proud’ guidelines are giving students confidence in their handwriting.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Putting pen to paper should be a natural instinct for children by the time they reach Key Stage 3:</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
the gateway into articulating their thoughts, expressing complex ideas and answering questions</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
with confidence and fluency.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
After four years working at a large secondary school in a pretty tough area, I'd seen four cohorts</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
of fresh-faced Year 7 children arrive and settle into life in secondary education.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
It always surprised me that they seemed relatively lacking in confidence, particularly when it came to written work. A simple spelling mistake could cause a total meltdown out of the blue,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and torn out pages or screwed up worksheets were far too common for my liking.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
This year, in my new role as headteacher of one of the largest feeder primaries, the penny dropped.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
They had never been allowed to use a pen before.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Despite an elaborate system of handwriting schemes of work, certificates and pen licenses,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
not one child in my current Year 6 was writing with a pen at any point. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Handwriting, and indeed basic letter formation,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
had lost its way after the early years foundation stage, and simply not been a priority. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
It was no wonder that no child ever achieved the complex criteria for a pen licence.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
"We held a whole school INSET on handwriting,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and launched a school-wide handwriting font which is displayed in all classrooms."</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Without basic training in letter formation and cursive script, our children are being limited</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to printing for the rest of their writing careers. If we don’t help them to develop the basic skills</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to write down their thoughts quickly and easily, we are limiting their communication for all time.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Imagine how difficult it must be to be thinking constantly about what the next letter looks like, </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
rather than focusing on the content of the writing, or the great ideas that you want to express.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Having discovered this fundamental writers’ block, at our school we have produced</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
‘Work Proud’ guidelines to upgrade the quality of the children’s written work.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Drawn up by year teams, these aim to ensure high quality presentation across the year group.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Each reflects the stage of development and age-related expectations for those children. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The guidelines include simple rules: in maths we write one digit in each square in our book;</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
if we make a mistake we put a single line through it and write the word again;</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
we always underline titles and then miss a line.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
We held a whole school INSET on handwriting, and launched a school-wide handwriting font which is displayed in all classrooms. All staff are trying hard to model this font to children, either in their own handwriting, or by using the electronic versions that can transform a word document in one click!</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
None of this is radical or earth shattering; indeed, many schools will have had this in place for years.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
There’s still some work to do in managing mistakes and building fluency, but we have taken steps</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to give our children confidence in their writing, preparing the ground for them to be expressive, articulate writers for the rest of their lives. </div>

TRANSCRIPT<br />
I'm Adam. Today's lesson is, again, phrasal verbs; everybody's favourite lessons.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Today, we're going to look at phrasal verbs using the verb "take".</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Again, a quick review: what is a phrasal verb?</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
A phrasal verb is a verb and a preposition, when put together, giving different meanings.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Sometimes one, sometimes two, sometimes more.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
So, today, we're going to look at "take out", "take in", "take over", "take up",<span style="color: grey; mso-themecolor: background1; mso-themeshade: 128;">-excuse me-</span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
"take after", "take back", "take off", "take on", "take down", "take to".<br />
<br />
Let's start with "take out". All of you, of course, know takeout food.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You go to McDonald's, they ask you if you want to eat in or take out.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
So, take out means to take your food to go. That's one meaning.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Another meaning of "take out" is the literal meaning; exactly what the words mean.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
For example, you have a turkey in the oven. It is finished cooking. You take it out of the oven.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Then, there is also the slang. If you want to take someone out, you kill them.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You see this in kind of the mob movies. They want to take someone out; they want to assassinate. Assassinate. I'll have to... Yeah, I'll leave that for now. Okay.<br />
<br />
"Take in". What does "take in" mean? A few meanings as well.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The first is the most common one. If your clothes are too big, if you've lost some weight,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
you might want to take in your shirt, or your dress, or your pants.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You take it to a tailor, and he or she will take it in; make it smaller, tighter.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Another meaning of "take in", for example, if you go outside your house and you see a cat,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and the cat is sitting there: "Meow, meow", you know, it's all sad and lonely. You take it in.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
It doesn't mean you take it into your house. It, of course, means that.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
But more, it means like adopt. You take it into your house; you give it a home, it’s part of the family.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
So, you accept, you take in, you adopt something or someone.<br />
<br />
"Take over". "Take over" means assume control of something.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
So, for example, if I own a big company and you own a slightly smaller company,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
but you're my competition, one way I can beat you is I can take over your company.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I can buy a lot of shares in your company, and I take over. I take control.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
If we're going on a long road trip, and I'm driving and I'm getting tired,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I say: "Oh, can you take over the driving?" Means we switch, and you continue driving.<br />
<br />
"Take up".</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
If you take up space, for example, it means you use. You use space. You take up space in a room.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Another way to say "take up" is you start to do something new, like a new hobby, or you start learning something new. So, recently, I took up Spanish. It means I started going to Spanish classes, and I started to learn Spanish.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Now, if you add "with", you can take something up with someone. It means you can discuss.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
So, if you have a problem in your class and you're falling behind, and you're not doing so well,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
take this problem up with your teacher. It means go to your teacher and discuss the situation.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
See how you can fix it. Okay.<br />
<br />
"After". If you take after someone, means you behave like them. It's very similar to look like,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
except it's not about physical features; it's about personality. So, if you take after someone,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
you are similar to someone in terms of character or behaviour.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
So, for example, I take after my mother. My sister takes after my father. My father was</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
a very hot-tempered man. My sister's a very hot-tempered woman, so she takes after him.<br />
<br />
"Take back". Again, two meanings. There's the literal meaning, so I lend you my pen. You use it.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You finished. I take it back. You give it back to me, it returns to me; I take it back.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Now, if I said something really mean to you or something not nice, or I made a promise</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and then I take it back, it means I cancel what I said. So, if I said something that made you upset</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and I take it back, it means I apologize. I take back the bad words and everything's okay, hopefully.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
If I made a promise then take it back, it means I'm not going to do this promise anymore. Okay?</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
So you have to be a little bit careful about take backs.<br />
<br />
"Take off". I think most of you know the airplane takes off. It goes down the runway,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
then "whew," takes off.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
But "take off" can also mean to be very successful or very quickly to do well. So, a business starts and, you know, the owners are doing what they can, but suddenly the business just takes off.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
It becomes very popular, very successful, making lots of money, hopefully, again.</div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Collocation<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The explanation pages on this website cover the big grammar topics, such as verb tenses,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
the articles, the passive. With such topics it is appropriate to use the words correct and incorrect. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
For example, it is incorrect to say: My father don't like German food or Do you have dog?</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
However, there are aspects of language where correct/incorrect are not the right terms.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Consider the sentence: She is completely beautiful. Many native English speakers would say</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
that the expression completely beautiful does not sound quite right;</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
that incredibly beautiful or extremely beautiful sound better.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
But the expression is certainly not incorrect in the way that Do you have dog? is.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
This aspect of usage (the expected combination of words) is called collocation.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
A grammarian would say that incredibly and beautiful collocate more strongly than completely and beautiful.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
There are no collocation rules that the student of English can sensibly learn.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
He or she must be prepared to use a dictionary in each case to find out about </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
the expected word combinations, or to ask a native speaker.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
An excellent modern alternative is to type the word combination into Google </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and see how many results are returned.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
In the example above completely beautiful got 36,100 hits,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
whereas incredibly beautiful got 861,000. It is very clear which is the stronger collocation </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
(more common usage).</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<a href="http://esl.fis.edu/grammar/choose/colloc1.htm">Do a quiz on collocation</a>.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<a href="http://esl.fis.edu/grammar/easy/colloc.htm">Read more about collocation</a>.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
http://esl.fis.edu/grammar/rules/colloc.htm</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
p.s. As a natural born English speaker I often use the synonyms option in MS Word</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
or a Thesaurus if I don’t want to repeat the same word in a sentence/paragraph.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Or I want to check the word’s generally understood meaning – its collocation</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
– is in harmony with what I want to express.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
p.p.s. I don’t know why ‘do you have a dog?’ is wrong.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Should it be 'have you got a dog?'</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Collocation:</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
A co-occurrence of words ></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
the association between two words that are typically or frequently used together.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The closeness of things ></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
an arrangement in which things are placed next to each other or close together.</div>

<b>Getting the Right Tutor for Your Child</b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Suseelah Ayura</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
According to a recent Straits Times article, 7 in 10 parents in Singapore ensured that their children had extra lessons by either engaging a home tutor for their children or sending them<br />
to tuition centres. Seventy percent of the 500 parents surveyed felt that extra tuition is necessary<br />
to help their children to perform better in their daily schoolwork and improve their exam grades.<br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The 21st century is very competitive for students, particularly in Singapore,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
where exemplary exam results and academic success are vital to a student's future.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Unfortunately, most of the teachers in our schools are often not able to give their students</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
the individual attention that they need to achieve their high levels of academic success</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
in their studies and exams.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Home Tutoring for the Struggling Student</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Many students, often the underachievers and those with learning difficulties struggle in school</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to cope with their daily homework and exam preparation. Often, it is not that they are not smart</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
nor that they are committed enough. Usually, it is because a student needs personalised guidance and training to perform better in his exams which are more challenging and demanding.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The key to enhancing a student's poor results in his exams is home tuition.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
A home tutor will be able to adjust his teaching styles to suit the student's individual learning needs. The tutor can also focus and help by imparting him with vital skills and exam strategies</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
that will boost his self esteem and confidence to perform better in his studies and exams.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
One of the most powerful tools and study strategies that a tutor can use is the internet.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
With the whole world at the student's fingertips, there are always valuable study resources</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and tools the student can easily access to improve his knowledge.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The internet offers a new perspective to students worldwide</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and often brings about the epiphany that is the signal of true learning.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Home Tuition to Improve Examination Scores</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
A third of the 500 parents interviewed in the Straits Times study mentioned that their children scored higher grades and their academic results improved significantly prior to their engaging</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
a home tutor for their children. By engaging the right home tutor who is well qualified a</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
nd experienced, it is a success pathway for true academic achievement for a student.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
General Tutor versus a Subject Specialist Tutor</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
A general tutor is usually able to help a student with their core subjects which are English, Maths, Science and Mother Tongue Language subjects. The tutor will teach and help the student</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to study more effectively to perform better in his daily works and exams.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
A subject specialist tutor will teach and train a student on a specific subject only.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
For example, a student seeking to enter who wants to be a lawyer will need to ace his English</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and General Paper. A subject specialist tutor can help a student to excel in the subject he is teaching by helping his student to focus more on exam strategies. He can also teach his student</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
how to apply the strategies successfully and effectively in his studies and exams.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Professional Tutors</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
In Singapore, where competitive testing is part of every student's daily challenges in his studies</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and exams, there are thousands of people who can claim to be tutors. The most important thing</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
for parents or students to do is to engage tutors who are well trained, experienced and committed. Parents should always interview the tutor and check out his credentials,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
experience and teaching philosophy before engaging the tutor.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Since home tuition is vital for the success of a student's performance in Singapore's</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
highly competitive academic world, parents should choose tutors wisely.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Engaging a home tutor is an investment that will pays dividends for a lifetime.</div>

<b>How to be a better reader<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<u>The importance of reading<o:p></o:p></u></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Reading is an extremely important skill. It is by reading that you learn much of what you need</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to know for your different school subjects. Reading is also an excellent way to improve</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
your general English. You can only learn from reading, however, if what you read is not too difficult. For this reason, it is important to know what makes texts difficult</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and how you can improve your chances of understanding them.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<u>What makes texts difficult to understand<o:p></o:p></u></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Most of your reading difficulties will be caused by a problem on the list below. Of course, when two or more of these problems happen together, your chances of understanding will be even smaller.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
the text has many unknown words</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
the text has long, complicated sentences</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
the text is about a topic you know nothing about</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
the text is about a topic you find boring</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
the text has small print, long paragraphs, no pictures</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
the text has been badly written</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
you are feeling tired</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
you are distracted</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
you don't know the important <a href="https://www.blogger.com/null">cohesion markers</a></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
you don't know why you have been asked to read the text</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<u>How to understand more of what you read<o:p></o:p></u></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You can do nothing about some of the reading difficulties: for example, you can’t change the print</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
in a book or make poor writing better. But there are many things you can do that will give you</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
a better chance of understanding what you read. Here are some suggestions:</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>1. Know your reading purpose</b> - The way you read a book or a text depends very much on your reasons for reading it. This is why it is so important to know your reading purpose.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You should read a question in your math exam differently from an entry in an encyclopaedia</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
which you are looking at quickly to find out the date of an event. The kind of reading you do in class or for your homework is different from how you read a novel for pleasure in the summer vacation.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
If you know your reading purpose - perhaps by looking first at the questions you must answer</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
after reading - you can choose the best reading method.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
If your teacher gives you something to read and doesn't tell you what you need to find out</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
from the text or what you will do after the reading, ask her (or him)!</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>2. Choose the appropriate reading speed</b> - ESL students often take a long time to do their work because they read everything slowly and carefully.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Often, however, one of the following speed reading methods will be the best choice:</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Skimming</b> - this is reading a text quickly to find out what information it contains.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You should skim when, for example, you want to check if a text has the information you need</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to answer some questions or write a project.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
It is often enough to look at the first (and last) sentences in each paragraph.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Scanning</b> - this is reading quickly to find a specific piece of information. You should scan when,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
for example, you are looking for the answer to a question which you know is in the text.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
In general, students should be trying to increase their reading speed.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
(Click to do some <a href="http://esl.fis.edu/learners/read/index.htm">speed reading practice</a>.)</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>3. Get background information</b> - Find something out about the topic you have to read.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The more background information you have, the easier it will be to understand the text.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You can get this background information background in your own language.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
For example, if you are studying the Italian Renaissance, you could read an encyclopaedia or textbook in your own language to find out the most important details about this historical period. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Your parents may also be able to give you useful background information.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Talk to them in your language.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You can sometimes get background information from the text itself. Many writers include</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
a conclusion or summary; if you read this first, it may give you a good start.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>4. Use all the information in the book</b> - Good textbooks are well-organised, with titles, sub-titles, introductions, summaries or conclusions. Many books also have pictures with captions.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Look at all these first before starting to read.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Another aspect of good writing is that each paragraph has a topic sentence. A topic sentence is</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
a sentence, usually the first one in a paragraph, that contains the main idea of the paragraph.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
If you concentrate on understanding the topic sentence, </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
this may help you to understand what comes next.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">

<b>5. Increase your vocabulary</b> - Of course, reading itself is an excellent way to improve your vocabulary, but there are many other things you can do. (<a href="http://esl.fis.edu/learners/advice/vocab.htm">More advice on learning vocabulary</a>.) </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The better your vocabulary, the easier you will find your reading.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>6. Use your dictionary sensibly</b> - A common mistake of ESL students is to look up each unknown word in the texts they are given to read. Occasionally this is necessary - for example, when reading examination questions. But it takes a long time and can be very boring. It can even make understanding more difficult because by the time you reach the end of the paragraph you have forgotten what you read at the beginning! (<a href="http://esl.fis.edu/learners/advice/dic.htm">Advice on how and when to use your dictionary</a>.)</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>7. Learn the important words that organise text</b> - When you read texts in your science or history books, you will find that most good writers organise their writing with cohesion markers (also called transition words). These are words that connect different parts of the writing and help writers structure their thoughts. If you learn the important cohesion markers, you will find it easier to understand the text.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Here are some important cohesion markers: also, therefore, except, unless,however, instead, (al)though, furthermore, moreover, nevertheless, on the other hand, as a result, despite, in conclusion.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>8. Choose the right place to read</b> - You can’t really expect to understand a difficult book if you are trying to read in the same room with the television on and your little brother distracting you. The same goes for reading in the bus on the way to school. You also can’t expect to read a textbook and listen to music at the same time. Try to find a quiet and comfortable place with good light, and your dictionaries and other materials nearby.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>9. Choose the right time to read</b> - If you have a difficult text to read for homework, it’s probably best to do this first. If you leave it until last when you are tired, you will find it even more difficult.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Important: If you have tried the advice above and you still cannot understand a text, then it is simply too hard for you. Stop reading and ask someone to help you (your ESL teacher, for example!). Nobody likes to give up, but you will just be wasting your time if you continue to work at a text that is beyond you.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>What to read</b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Most of the time you have to read what your teachers tell you to read. But as you know, reading is an excellent way to improve your English, and so you should try to do some extra reading each week. Here is some advice on how to choose what to read:</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Try not to read something too difficult - There should be no more than about 6-10 new words per page; reading for pleasure should not be hard work!</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Reading easy books is good for you</b> -You will improve your reading skills even if you read simple books, as long as you read lots of them. (But you may find you don't really enjoy stories written in English that has been over-simplified.)</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Try to read some non-fiction</b> - Reading non-fiction books or magazines will help you learn some of the words you need to do well in your subject classes. There are millions of pages of non-fiction on the world wide web!</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Choose something that is interesting to you </b>- This is clear. In fact, if you are really interested in a topic, you will probably be able to understand texts that would normally be too difficult for you.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Surf the internet - You can learn a lot of English just by surfing around on the websites that interest you. This is particularly true if the webpages contain pictures that help you understand the writing.</div>

TRANSCRIPT<br />
Hi. My name's Ronnie. I'm going to teach you some words. The inspiration came as a sign, literally.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I walked into the magical place of unicorns and magicians, where we record these videos,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and I saw a wizard holding a sign that said: "OVER", and I said: "Oo, cool sign. It says 'OVER'." Lesson, lesson, lesson, done. So, I'm going to teach you some expressions that we use with "over".<br />
<br />
Now, the cool thing about "over" is if you look at this side of the board, all of these words</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
are going to have one thing in common, and it is, of course, the word "over".</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
So, in English when you're learning new vocabulary and you see the word "over" plus another word, it has a very, very important meaning.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
And this one means "too much" or "too many". So, if you're learning new vocabulary,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
if you're reading something and you are not sure what the word means,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
you're going to know "over", "over" means too much or too many of something.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
So, let's check out what these words mean.<br />
<br />
First of all: "overreact". This means you take something too far. Let's say that, for example,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I drop my marker. Instead of picking it up and going: "I dropped my marker", </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I would freak out and go: "Oh my god! I dropped my marker! What am I going to do? Oh!"</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
This is overreacting or being overemotional. You tell the person: "Hey, calm down. Do not overreact. You're reacting or being too emotional." So, "overreact" means too many or too much action;</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
too many emotions are coming out. Chill down and relax.<br />
<br />
"Overused". "Overused" means you use something too much. So maybe you overuse your cellphone, maybe you always use your cellphone, and one day your cellphone dies and goes "ppft", nope. You've overused something because you've used it too much.<br />
<br />
This is my daily life. Every day I wake up, have a shower, smell good, and I listen to the radio.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Now, I like music a lot, but I have a big problem with the radio and the problem is</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
that they "overplay" or they have "overplayed" songs. This means they play one song every day. Guess what? There are millions upon millions of songs out there. I do not want to have to listen to the same song every day at the same time. Without fail, they will overplay a song. Usually what happens is you hear the song, you're like: "Enh, I don't mind it." You hear it again a couple times, you're like: "Oh, I quite like this song." And then the magic happens, they overplay it - "ppft", it's gone. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You can't stand the song because it's overplayed. They play it all the time. You go shopping: </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
"Oh, there's that song again." Every place you go, you hear that song. The song is overplayed.<br />
<br />
This is what happens at work. Do you work too much? If you work too much, you say:</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
"I am overworked." It means I work too much.<br />
<br />
Uh-oh, sometimes maybe once in a while if you are lucky, you would get to go on vacation-woo-hoo-so you have your airplane ticket, you're on your flight, you get to the hotel and they say: -</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
"Uh, we don't have a room for you." -"This is my reservation number, this is my name.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Why don't you have a room?" They will say: -"We're overbooked." -"Uh, you have too many books?" No. "Overbooked" means they have too many reservations and not enough rooms,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
or they don't have enough space. Overbooked can happen in a restaurant, it can happen</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
with reservations, in a movie theatre, no, or... Not a movie theatre. If you book a play or something, they have not enough seats, too many people. Also an airplane, if you book a ticket, it's overbooked, there's too many people. Not enough seats, too many humans. Mm-hmm.<br />
<br />
If you don't understand something, it's "over your head". Maybe you go to school</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
or maybe you're talking to someone, and what they're saying to you does not make sense,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
you can say: "It's over my head." You don't understand. No comprende. Don't understand.<br />
<br />
Next: "overdrawn". Uh-oh. This is really, really, really bad because it has to do with money.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
If your bank account is overdrawn, it means you've taken out too much money that you don't have. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
If this happens to you, the bank will also charge you fees. They're called "overdrawn fees" maybe. This is a bad situation.<br />
Something else you can be is "overloaded". You can be overloaded with work,<br />
or you can be overloaded with projects. Never overloaded with money. That's a problem.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
All parts of our body age. And our brain does too. We’ve all witnessed the natural deterioration</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
of brain functions in older relatives. Unfortunately, they lose their short-term memories and they gradually lose the executive functions, as the right frontal lobe loses gray matter and gets “mushy.” Even without the dreaded Alzheimer’s, our brains just age. Now; however, neuroscience tells us that we can delay this process. In some instances, we can reverse brain deterioration by engaging</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
in some pretty specific activities, most of which we would consider hobbies. Here are 7 of them.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
<b>1. Read Anything<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
Whether you love old classic comic books or the New York Times, brain researchers tell us that reading actually increases brain function in several areas. It stimulates the growth of new neural pathways as we absorb new information. Reading flexes those parts of the brain that deal with problem-solving, seeing patterns, and interpreting what others are saying to us about their feelings. It also improves memory, builds on prior learning (more neural connections), and exercises parts of the brain that allow imagination. Some research also points to speedreading as a method to increase synapses (electrical connections between regions of the brain), since the brains must process sensory information quickly. Indeed, for many students, speedreading is a valuable skill.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
<b>2. Learn to Play a Musical Instrument<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
For years, neuro-scientists have conducted research on the benefits of music instruction</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
for children relative to improved cognitive functions – memory, problem-solving, sequential processing, and pattern recognition. Playing an instrument (the voice is also an instrument), increases gray matter volume and makes neural connections between the two hemispheres</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
of the brain. For this reason, scientists believe that early musical training allows students</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
to be better at both linear math work (algorithms, equation solving) and mathematical problem-solving (modeling, optimization, problem research).</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
Playing an instrument ensures both sides of the brain work together much better.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
Now, researchers tell us that taking up a musical instrument as an adult – young, middle-aged,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
or older – can produce the same neurological effects as it does in children.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
<b>3. Exercise on a Regular Basis<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
Here’s what the science tells us. Exercise produces a protein (BDNF) in the blood stream.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
As blood travels through the brain, cells absorb this protein, which is responsible for both increased memory and focus. One of the most notable experiments was a photo memory test given</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
to experimental and control groups. The experimental group exercised before the test, while the control group did not. The experimental group’s test results were overwhelmingly better.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
Members were able to focus on the photos and then recall them after a period of waiting.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
<b>4. Learn a New Language<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
Several areas of the brain are used as we take in sound, give it meaning, and then respond to it –</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
4 areas in all. Bilingual people have more gray matter in their language centers.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
They can focus on more than one task at a time because parts of the brain that relate to reasoning, planning, and memory are more developed. Again, scientists began to study this in children first, looking at those in whose households a foreign language was spoken, but in whose schools only English was spoken. Being forced to take in sounds from two different languages and “sort out” which language was being heard forced these areas of the brain into greater functioning.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
Now, it is also known that learning a language at any stage in one’s life has the same forceful effect on the brain making it smarter.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
<b>5. Engage in Cumulative Learning<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
Cumulative learning is defined as that process by which we take what we already know and layer new information of the same type on top of that. For example, math is cumulative learning. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
Children first learn basic functions. Then they learn how to use those basic functions to</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
solve word problems. Next, they learn algebra, using basic functions to solve equations. Every layer goes on top of what was learned before. As we age, and especially as we leave the workforce, </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
we tend to cease cumulative learning activities. However, research says if we continue to engage in them we sharpen memory, sequential ordering, problem solving (executive functioning of right frontal lobe), and language. Maybe we should all take a math or writing class in our senior years!</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
<b>6. Exercise Your Brain with Puzzles and Games<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
We need to think of our brains as both computers and muscles. The more information we put into our brains, the more functions they can perform. Likewise, the more we exercise our brains,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
the stronger they function. Brain plasticity is a term that is used to refer to the continually</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
new connections that are made when we take in information, engage in thinking,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
and force ourselves to remember things. Crossword puzzles, deductive thinking activities,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
and strategic games such as chess or even some video games,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
force our brains to take in new information and make new connections.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
<b>7. Meditate / Practice Yoga<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
Meditation is no longer something that can be thought of as “that thing that Hindu and Buddhist monks do.” What research says about meditation is actually pretty astounding. First, it allows better control of one’s thinking when not in a meditative state. This control allows focus, concentration, </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
and better memory. In fact, students who meditate do better on tests,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
and adults who meditate have better memories. Meditation increases gray matter in areas</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
of the brain that control learning and memory. Senior citizens who meditate keep more gray matter than those who do not. For students with behavior problems in school, meditation has been shown to improve behavior and school attendance because it reduces stress and anxiety.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
It would appear that meditation is a great thing for all ages.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
All of these hobbies are things that we can easily incorporate into our daily lives.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="margin-right: 4.75pt;">
Given what science now tells us, they will keep our brains wonderfully healthy.</div>

<br />
Hi. James, from EngVid. Today's video is on, well, "The Book of Bad English".<br />
There are mistakes that native speakers make that ESL people pick up -- and "ESL"<br />
<div>
is "English as a Second Language".<br />
People learning English, they pick up because native speakers don't even know they're making<br />
this mistake. So I want to teach you six common ones that come regularly or happen regularly<br />
in conversation. And I want you to learn them and make your English perfect. Let's go to the board.<br />
Now, let's start with No. 1, one of my favorite ones: "amount" and "number".<br />
"Amount" is, sort of, like, "how much". A "number" is, you know, "thing".<br />
When we look at "amount", you can think of you can't count it, all right?<br />
A lot of times, when we say "amount" -- like, "I have a large amount of water in my house" –<br />
you can't count water. But you can count a number, so: "The number of people who come to the city is in the thousands", so you can count them. Here's an example. Tell me if this is right or wrong. </div>
<div>
"The amount of students who are late is growing every day" or "the number of students who are late is growing every day." You should say "number" because you can count students. You can't count amount. That rhymes. Maybe that'll help, right? You can't count amount. You can't count amount. </div>
<div>
So when we want to talk about a number of something or a body of something,<br />
"amount" is for things you cannot count,<br />
and "number" is for things you can count. English people make this mistake a lot.<br />
Next: "among" and "between". When I used to teach "among" and "between", I would say, "'Among' is 'with'. So there're five chairs, and you're 'with' another. And 'between' is you're in the middle." That's it. Because I was so smart. And then I found out it's just this: two. More than two. That's it. Nothing special. When you talk about "between", except -- and this is a major exception –<br />
when you're talking about differences. Differences you have to use "between".<br />
But generally speaking, "among" is more than two. "I was sitting among my friends at the bar."<br />
You can know there're probably four or five, not two. But "let's keep this between you and me"?<br />
A lot of times, Canadians say, "Let's keep this among us." And it's like, "Among who?"<br />
"The rest of those guys, you know. The Americans. They don't need to know this." Okay.<br />
So "between us" -- usually two, right? It could be two groups. "There was a fight between<br />
this country and that country." Right? Because it's two groups.<br />
But "among" is for more than two, cool? All right. So "among" -- more than two; "between" -- two.<br />
What about "bring" and "take"? This is something that a lot of students make a mistake on.<br />
So you say, "Bring this to me" or "take this to him." It's very easy. "Bring" is "to the speaker", okay? And "take" is "away from the speaker". Now, if you're born in England, that's easy because<br />
they always talk about "I want takeaway." Takeaway. Because they take the food away<br />
from the restaurant, right? So one of my favorite sayings that we say in England -- not England –<br />
that we say here is, like -- watch every space movie: "Take me to your leader."<br />
You'll never see a space movie, unless it's made by me -- and it would say, "Bring me to your leader." We don't do that. You say, "Take them to the leader" because you're taking them away from<br />
this spot where the speaker is to a new location or spot. So "take" and "bring" are easy because<br />
it's "bring -- come towards". Here's a mistake -- not Canadians -- English speakers make that you should be aware of. They'll say something like, "Don't forget to bring your bag with you" instead of, "Don't forget to take your bag." Do you know what the difference is? Well, you're leaving, right?<br />
So you need to take it away. Remember I said "away from"? Take the bag away from you.<br />
When you say, "Bring the bag with you", the speaker's speaking, you're still moving away from<br />
the speaker, right? So you've got to use this. But Canadians and Americans and Brits say it a lot. They'll say, "Bring it with you." No. "Take" it with you. You know the difference now<br />
because you're smart. And you're studying from The Book of Bad English. Good for you.<br />
There's a worm in that book. Watch it.<br />
Okay. "Fewer" or "less". I'm going to make a statement, and think which one is correct.<br />
"'Fewer' than a million people have watched the videos on EngVid. 'Less' than a million people<br />
have watched the videos on EngVid." Which one would be correct? Yeah. If you said "less than", no. "Less" is similar to "amount". You say "fewer" for things you can count.<br />

<b>6 Ways to Get Motivated When You Feel Like Doing Nothing<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Kerry Petsinger</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Even the most ambitious, motivated people occasionally have difficulties getting things done.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The good news is that we can often discover why we’re in a slump.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Even better, there are ways to get out of the slump and get motivated again.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Here’s 6 ways to get motivated when you feel like doing nothing.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>1. Figure out why you’re in a slump.<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Here are some of the reasons you may be in a slump:</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You’re dreading something you know you need to do.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You’re procrastinating getting things done because you are totally loathing an upcoming task.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You’re tired. You’ve been lacking good nutrition, sleep, exercise,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
or have been ill and overall don’t feel well.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You’re lacking confidence. You are scared to get out of your comfort zone and do something.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You’re in the middle of a project. You’ve gotten past the excitement at the beginning,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and you’re not yet near the end. You’re in the difficult part – the middle.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>2. When you’re dreading something, make it almost impossible to NOT do the task.<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
For example, if you know you want to workout in the morning, try placing your workout clothes</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
next to your bed so they’re the first thing you see when you wake up.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Also, call a friend and make plans to meet them at the gym in the morning.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Having an accountability partner will increase your likelihood of success.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>3. When you’re tired, take care of your body.<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Some days, you might need rest. Other days, your body might need exercise.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Some days, you just may need to get away from your desk and get some fresh air.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Think about how your habits have been recently. Have you been getting adequate rest?</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Have you been choosing healthy foods and beverages? Have you had a recent illness</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
that has left you feeling rundown? Think about how you’ve been treating your body.</div>

Taking great care of your body may help you get out of your slump.</div>

<b>4. When you’re lacking confidence, think about WHY you’re doubting your capabilities.<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Are you struggling with negative thinking? Has there been a recent negative comment</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
or event in your life that has been bothering you? Are you comparing yourself to other people? </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
When you’re struggling with negative thinking, give yourself a compliment,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
or do something fun to rejuvenate your joy.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>5. When you’re in the middle of your journey, persevere.<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
When you set out to achieve a big goal, it’s usually pretty easy to be very motivated</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
at the beginning. At the beginning, you think about the end result, and you are full of anticipation </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and enthusiasm. It’s also pretty easy to be motivated at the end of a long journey.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Once the end is in sight, the excitement of seeing the finish line can propel you forward.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
In my opinion, the middle of the journey is usually the hardest. In the middle, the initial excitement has diminished, but you haven’t gotten close to your goal yet. In the middle, you realize exactly</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
how much time and effort is required to complete your journey. You get frustrated</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and frequently face the difficulty of pushing yourself out of your comfort zone to move forward.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
In the middle, keep thinking about your “why.” What are the personal, meaningful,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and strong reasons you wanted to achieve your goal in the first place?</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Oftentimes, remembering our “why” can help give us a boost of motivation</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
when we’re in a slump. Also, remember what Confucius said, “It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.” Keep moving when you’re in the middle. Commit to taking daily actions that move you closer to your end goal, even if they’re extremely tiny actions. Just keep moving.</div>

<b>6. Remember that the slump won’t last forever,</b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and take action immediately to start getting out of it.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Start moving forward with tiny little steps. Remember that perseverance can make a huge difference in your success. Remember that success is a wild journey with many bumps and bends in the road, and not typically the straight line that people envision. Remember that moving forward</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
when you’re not feeling motivated helps you push through your fears,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
get out of your comfort zone, and win the mental battles you have with yourself.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Each step you take during the difficult times helps you feel more confident and capable,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and gives you the momentum to continue to move out of your slump.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Any time you set out to achieve something in your life, you will face resistance.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
That resistance can leave you feeling unmotivated and cause you to sink into a slump.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
However, pushing through the resistance and taking action to get out of your slump will help set you up for long-term success. When you realize you really can get yourself motivated on your bad days, you will know in the future how to get yourself through additional rough times.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Everyone has the occasional slump. Recognizing the cause of your lack of motivation,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and taking action to quickly get out of your slump will help minimize your down time</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and maximize your success.</div>

8 Simple Ways You Can Try Now To Train Your Brain To Stay Focused</div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Training your brain to stay focused and on task is key to optimal productivity. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Here are 8 simple ways you can try now to train your brain to stay focused, on task,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and to create more time on your day to be awesome.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>1. Plan tasks in advance<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
List your 3 most important tasks to deal with in a day the night before,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
so you hit the ground running. Choose just 3 tasks to prioritise for a day,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and be clear on how much you can achieve in any time frame.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>2. Get started without checking in<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Get started on your first task without checking your email or social media channels.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The sense of achievement felt by getting one task completed will make your day feel more successful and productive. Also, your brain will not feel overwhelmed by information</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
before getting started, and the temptation to go off track is reduced.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>3. Set a routine<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Help your brain get used to being productive by creating a routine and working habits</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
that you stick to.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>4. Work on one task at a time<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Whilst the creative, entrepreneurial brain works in non-linear ways,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
training your brain to work one just one task at a time is a great way to plough through tasks</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and to tame the butterfly brain of a Type A personality.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>5. Silence the extra noise<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
When working on a task, silence extra distractions from social media and email updates and alerts</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to stay on task and focussed.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">

<br />
</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>6. Use the alpha waves<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Using music specifically designed to emulate alpha waves of the brain </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
is proven to enhance productivity and focus.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>7. Split tasks into chunks<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The Pomodoro technique is a famous time management task technique that uses timers</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to set boundaries around tasks. Proven to enable efficient, focussed working </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
there are many tools available to help time your work online.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>8. Build in exercise time<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Exercise releases endorphins, raises serotonin levels, and also allows space for creative ideas</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to form. Just half an hour a day will help your brain stay focused and productive.</div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">

I think the following points are all worth considering when criticising something.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
And, please note, these are a series of suggestions about how to judge one’s own behaviour,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
which I hope will influence my future behaviour, not a set of standards by which to judge others,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
or a claim to have always got these right in the past.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>What are your motives for criticising? <o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I think this question is always worth considering. It seems fair to give examples of things happening in schools because people have denied that such a thing happens, or claimed they are uncommon. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
At times it may be fine even just to illustrate. If people make false claims about schools,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I think it’s more than okay to correct them, even if that may reveal a less positive picture</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
of the school. But while such things might upset individuals, upsetting should never be the aim. Deliberate intimidation, such as in Twitter storms, is even worse. I’d also warn against</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
“virtue-signalling” as a questionable motive, i.e. condemning others in order to gain the approval</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
of the like-minded. Sometimes somebody’s behaviour is so bad that it is worth saying it is disgusting, but do so because the person should know, not in order to vent,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
so save that for exceptional cases not just things you disagree with.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Are your criticisms based on accurate information? <o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
In my descriptions of shaming, I didn’t want to restart the witch hunt, so I cut out any information about the actual concerns of the shamers. If I hadn’t though, I could have included as many tweets and emails that were factually incorrect as ones that were insulting. Never assume that the account of one disgruntled parent is accurate. Never assume that a newspaper story is accurate.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Always try to check facts and find out the context.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
If that means contacting the person you are criticising first, so be it.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Also be willing to admit the error, and make corrections when you have got your facts wrong.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Are you criticising public behaviour? <o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I should be careful here to state that I am not saying we should never discuss what goes on</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
behind the school gates. Schools receive public money and should expect to be scrutinised.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
But I do think there is a difference between criticising what schools and teachers proclaim publicly, and weighing in on what is brought to light by their critics. In the first case, making something public invites (reasonable) responses and people should know if something they are saying in public is widely considered objectionable. Also, if it’s something you have posted online you always have the opportunity to remove it if there is a backlash you hadn’t anticipated. We should feel free</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to openly criticise the content of tweets or blogs, although I would suggest that deleted tweets</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
or blogs should be forgotten about unless the author tries to pretend they never happened,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
or tries to misrepresent what happened (most commonly by claiming to be the victim in a row</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
they started). In the second case, where the school has not put the information in the public domain, we can still criticise. However, when criticising we need to accept that we are now responsible</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
for the consequences of sharing that information. It is not good enough to say</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
“well, it was in a newspaper” or “it was already out there”,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
if the information is then misused, or prompts a hate campaign.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Can those being criticised defend themselves? <o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
This is the “witch hunt” clause. Too many people claim they just want to debate what has happened in situations where nobody can express the opposing view without being insulted.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
When it comes to accusations about individuals, it is worse. If people have been genuinely forced off social media, (and I mean by weight of abuse, not because they flounced off) it is not fair</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to make accusations about them on social media. Don’t join in with a chorus of hostility when you know those at whom it is aimed cannot possibly reply. Also, if somebody is defending themselves, address the content of their defence. Don’t start changing the accusation to something different.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I would also be careful against tweeting, or blogging about individuals who can be identified,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
but haven’t been named, or notified that you are talking about them. Some people seem to think that criticising somebody in public without identifying them is a way to make debate less personal (see point 6) but the usual result is that the criticised person feels they are being slagged off</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
behind their back in order to stop them defending themselves.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
With regard to avoiding Twitter storms, you can try to involve others in discussions that criticise,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
but back off if it could be intimidating. You may want to make people aware of somebody’s objectionable opinion, but try not to send the message: “let’s all pile in now”.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Are you being insulting? <o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
This is one that always amazes me online. People often have a very odd concept of “insulting”.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
On the one hand there are people who see insult where there is none, and often reply with insults</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to an insult that exists only in their imagination. Common examples of this are those who think</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
an insult can be defined by “offence”, so if they are offended by something, even just an opposing opinion, then they have been insulted. I have encountered people online who argue that you should never point out when somebody has passed on false information, even deliberate lies,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
because this is the same as calling somebody a liar. Also there are those who feel that if they think the person they are speaking to does not respect them, usually judged from the “tone”</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
of comments, or their own insecurities, then they have been insulted. On the other hand,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
there are those who start with insults and then complain about the response (or lack of response). There are those who think that if they state something true, it cannot be an insult:</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
“but your mother is fat and that’s just a medical fact”. There are also those who use analogies without quite realising that a comparison can be insulting: “No, I am just saying you are acting </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
like a Nazi, not that you are a Nazi”. It is best not to start an argument with “anybody who disagrees is bonkers”, nor to resort too easily to the claim that somebody you disagree with</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
has misunderstood. A “bully” is not somebody who disagrees with you. Similarly, describing anything you object to as “child abuse” is not the way to win an argument about whether it is right or wrong; </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
it is just an insult. Finally, satire should be aimed at the powerful; some of the worst insults I’ve seen online have been defended as clever parody or just a joke, yet if the “joke” is that some ordinary teacher is pure evil and might do or say evil things, it can be indistinguishable from abuse.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Are you making it personal? <o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Even if you are not insulting people, arguments are not helped by making them about the people who hold the opinion rather than the content of the opinion. Some people do this so habitually</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
that they cannot imagine arguing with somebody who is anonymous. Online argument often consists entirely of a series of ad hominems and appeals to expertise, where people are sorted into goodies (or victims) and baddies (or oppressors) where it is a prioriwrong to disagree with the goodies,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
or disagree with the baddies. Try to avoid these narratives. Be careful when using yourself,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
your school, or your children as an example; if you can’t bear to see any of these criticised,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
then don’t bring them up. If something is common, you do not need to provide specific examples.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
If you do not agree with a policy or teaching approach, you may not need to name examples</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
of people (or schools) who disagree in order to discuss it, although be careful that you don’t fall</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
into the trap of criticising people behind their back (see point 4). People should not find that</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
when they search for their own name, the name of their school, or their Twitter username,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
that they get your rant about them.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Are you just repeating what has been said by others? <o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
This is probably a good way to avoid a Twitter storm. If you want to make a point to somebody</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
you don’t need a 1000 others to say the same thing. Sometimes, you do want to get across the point that “this is not just me saying this”, but be careful that you are not getting dozens of people</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to repeat you. Sometimes a Twitter poll will help get the point across better than asking people</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to make comments. If somebody asks their timeline for their opinions, don’t bother if lots of people have already said what you wanted to say. It is okay to “like” a good argument that you agree with on Twitter, but read the responses first. Sometimes weak, or factually incorrect arguments (particularly about politics) are being liked on Twitter for days after they have been exposed</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
as incorrect. Finally, if something is all over Twitter,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
we do not have to join in with a chorus of disapproval immediately.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
We can stop and think, look for the counter-arguments, or just wait to see how it plays out.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Are you applying the same standards to yourself, or those you sympathise with? <o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
This is always one of the trickiest things to consider. We naturally apply all kinds of mitigation</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to ourselves and those we agree with that we don’t apply to others. But we should try to avoid it.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
If you are going to declare “nobody should ever do this”, but you know there are times when</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
it is acceptable, it is best to mention the exceptions up front. It is best to think through the wider principles behind what we say, just in case we have just come up with a brilliant argument against our own beliefs. Sometimes it’s better to check your previous contributions to a discussion as you add to it, rather than ending up condemning somebody for doing something you started yourself. Furthermore, if you haven’t always got things right in the past, admit it.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
(P.S. I haven’t always got the things listed in points 1-8 right in the past).</div>

<b>10 Tips to Study Smart and Save Time<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Scott H Young</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I recently got my marks back from University.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
My grade point average was a 4.2 out of a possible 4.5, resting between an A and a perfect A+.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
In itself, this isn’t an incredible achievement. But I managed to do this</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
while spending only a fraction of the time studying than many of the people I knew.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Is it just natural talent? Perhaps. I’ve always had a knack for understanding concepts</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and learning new ideas. But I also believe the way I learned the information played a role.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Instead of cramming last minute or memorizing details,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I try to organize information in a way that makes it easier to recall.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
This strategy of organization I label holistic learning.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Holistic learning is simply the process of organizing information into webs, that interconnect ideas. Instead of forcing ideas into your skull, you focus on the relationships between information.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Linking ideas together to see the whole, instead of just the parts.<br />
<br />
<b>Building an Understanding<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Learning is a process similar to building a house. You aren’t fed the complete picture.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Limitations on communication prevent the instantaneous transmission of knowledge.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Instead you listen to lectures, read textbooks and take painstaking notes</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to try and comprehend a subject.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You are fed building supplies, bricks, mortar and glass. It is up to you to assemble the building.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Unfortunately, most learning strategies fall into two basic types:</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Memorization</b> – Instead of building anything you simply stare at each brick for several minutes trying to record its position.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Formulas</b> – This is the equivalent to being blind, fumbling around a new house. You can’t see t</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
he building itself but you learn to come up with simple rules to avoid walking into walls.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
There is nothing particularly wrong with either of these strategies, assuming they aren’t your entire strategy. The human brain isn’t a computer so it can’t memorize infinite sums of knowledge</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
without some form of structure.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
And formulas no longer work if the questions they are designed to solve change scope.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Learning Holistically<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The alternative strategy is to focus on actually using the information you have to build something. This involves linking concepts together and compressing information so it fits in the bigger picture.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Here are some ideas to get started:<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Metaphor</b> – Metaphors can allow you to quickly organize information by comparing</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
a complex idea to a simple one. When you find relationships between information,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
come up with analogies to increase your understanding. Compare neurons with waves on a string. Make metaphors comparing parts of a brain with sections of your computer.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Use All Your Senses</b> – Abstract ideas are difficult to memorize because they are far removed</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
from our senses. Shift them closer by coming up with vivid pictures, feelings and images</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
that relate information together. When I learned how to do a determinant of a matrix,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I remembered the pattern by visualizing my hands moving through the numbers,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
one adding and one subtracting.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Teach It</b> – Find someone who doesn’t understand the topic and teach it to them.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
This exercise forces you to organize. Spending five minutes explaining a concept</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
can save you an hour of combined studying for the same effect.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Leave No Islands</b> – When you read through a textbook, every piece of information should connect with something else you have learned. Fast learners do this automatically,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
but if you leave islands of information, you won’t be able to reach them during a test.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Test Your Mobility</b> – A good way to know you haven’t linked enough is that you can’t move</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
between concepts. Open up a word document and start explaining the subject you are working with. If you can’t jump between sections, referencing one idea to help explain another,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
you won’t be able to think through the connections during a test.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Find Patterns</b> – Look for patterns in information. Information becomes easier to organize</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
if you can identify broader patterns that are similar across different topics.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The way a neuron fires has similarities to “if” statements in programming languages.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Build a Large Foundation</b> – Reading lots and having a general understanding of many topics</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
gives you a lot more flexibility in finding patterns and metaphors in new topics.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The more you already know, the easier it is to learn.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Don’t Force</b> – I don’t spend much time studying before exams.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Forcing information during the last few days is incredibly inefficient. Instead try to slowly interlink ideas as they come to you so studying becomes a quick recap rather than a first attempt at learning.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Build Models</b> – Models are simple concepts that aren’t true by themselves, but are useful for describing abstract ideas. Crystallizing one particular mental image or experience can create a model you can reference when trying to understand. When I was trying to tackle the concept of subspaces, I visualized a blue background with a red plane going through it. This isn’t an entirely accurate representation of what a subspace is, but it created a workable image for future ideas.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Learning is in Your Head</b> – Having beautiful notes and a perfectly highlighted textbook</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
doesn’t matter if you don’t understand the information in it. Your only goal is to understand</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
the information so it will stick with you for assignments, tests and life.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Don’t be afraid to get messy when scrawling out ideas on paper and connecting them in your head. Use notes and books as a medium for learning rather than an end result.</div>

<b>Eight Habits that Improve Cognitive Function<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
What daily habits improve brain structure and cognitive function?</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Christopher Bergland</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
On March 11, the New York Times published an article about the "brain fitness business" titled, </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Do Brain Workouts Work? Science Isn’t Sure. I believe the answer is no. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Without a variety of other daily habits, these "brain-training games" cannot stave off mental decline or dramatically improve cognitive function.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Most of these brain-training games will have some benefits—but it's impossible to optimize brain connectivity and maximize neurogenesis (growth of new neurons) sitting in a chair</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
while playing a video game on a two-dimensional screen.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
In order to give your brain a full workout, you need to engage both hemispheres of the cerebrum, </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and both hemispheres of the cerebellum.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You can only do this by practicing, exploring, and learning new things in the three-dimensions</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
of the real world—not while being sedentary in front of a flat screen in a cyber reality.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Digital games are incapable of giving the entire brain a full workout. These digital programs</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
can't really exercise the cerebellum (Latin: "Little Brain") and, therefore, are literally only training half your brain. These "brain-training workouts" are the equivalent of only ever doing upper body workouts, without ever working out your lower body.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Although the cerebellum is only 10 percent of brain volume, it houses over 50 percent of the brain's total neurons. Neuroscientists are perplexed by this disproportionate ratio of neurons...</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Whatever the cerebellum is doing to optimize brain function and improve cognition, </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
it recruits a lot of neurons to do it.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Brain-Training Games Increase Sedentary Screen Time<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
In the recent New York Times article, Tara Parker-Pope concludes that, “While there is no real risk to participating in the many unproven brain-training games available online and through smartphones, experts say, consumers should know that the scientific jury is still out on whether they are really boosting brain health or just paying hundreds of dollars to get better at a game.” I slightly disagree.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I believe these programs do have a risk because they add more sedentary screen time</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to a person's day. This additional time spent on a mobile device or computer takes away from time that people could spend: breaking a sweat, exploring the world, interacting with friends and family, making art, playing a musical instrument, writing, reading a novel, daydreaming, practicing mindfulness meditation, etc.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I have written dozens of Psychology Today blog posts about lifestyle choices and daily habits</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
that improve brain structure, connectivity, and cognitive function. For this post, I did a meta-analysis of the most recent neuroscience studies and compiled a list of habits that can improve cognitive function for people from every generation. These eight habits can improve cognitive function</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and protect against cognitive decline for a lifespan.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Eight Habits that Improve Cognitive Function<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Physical Activity</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Openness to Experience</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Curiosity and Creativity</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Social Connections</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Mindfulness Meditation</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Brain-Training Games</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Get Enough Sleep</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Reduce Chronic Stress</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Physical Activity<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Last December, researchers at Boston University School of Medicine (BUSM) discovered</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
more evidence that physical activity is beneficial for brain health and cognition.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The study found that certain hormones, which are increased during exercise,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
may help improve memory. The researchers were able to correlate blood hormone levels</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
from aerobic fitness, and identify positive effects on memory function linked to exercise.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
In October of 2013, researchers at Dana-Farber and Harvard Medical School</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
released a study showing a specific molecule released during endurance exercise</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
that improves cognition and protects the brain against degeneration.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I wrote a post about this called "Scientists Discover Why Exercise Makes You Smarter."</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
In their breakthrough discovery, scientists honed in on a specific molecule called irisin </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
that is produced in the brain during endurance exercise through a chain reaction.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Irisin is believed to have neuroprotective effects. Researchers were also able to artificially increase the levels of irisin in the blood which activated genes involved in learning and memory.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
A 2013 study from Finland with children investigated the link between cardiovascular fitness,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
motor skills, and academic test scores. The researchers found that first graders</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
with poor motor skills also had poorer reading and arithmetic test scores.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Across the board, children with better performance in fitness and motor skills</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
had higher cognitive function and scored better in reading and arithmetic tests.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>2. Openness to Experience<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
A study from October 2013 titled, "The Impact of Sustained Engagement on Cognitive Function</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
in Older Adults: The Synapse Project" found that learning new and demanding skills</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
while maintaining an engaged social network are key to staying sharp as we age.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The findings reveal that less demanding activities, such as listening to classical music or simply completing word puzzles, probably doesn’t provide noticeable benefits to an aging mind and brain. Older adults have long been encouraged to stay active and to flex their memory and learning</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
like any muscle that you have to "use it or lose it." However, this new research indicates that</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
not all mind-engaging activities improve cognitive function.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Lead researcher Denise Park of the University of Texas at Dallas says, “It seems it is not enough</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
just to get out and do something—it is important to get out and do something that is unfamiliar</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and mentally challenging, and that provides broad stimulation mentally and socially.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
When you are inside your comfort zone you may be outside of the enhancement zone."</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Another study, from January 2012, found that a training program designed to boost cognition</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
in older adults also increased their openness to new experiences demonstrating for the first time that a non-drug intervention in older adults can change a personality trait</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
once thought to be fixed throughout a person's lifespan.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>3. Curiosity and Creativity<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
In October of 2013, a study from Michigan State University found that childhood participation in arts and crafts leads to innovation, patents, and increases the odds of starting a business as an adult.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The researchers found that people who own businesses or patents received up to eight times</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
more exposure to the arts as children than the general public.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
“The most interesting finding was the importance of sustained participation in those activities,”</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
said Rex LaMore, director of MSU’s Center for Community and Economic Development.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
“If you started as a young child and continued in your adult years, you’re more likely to be</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
an inventor as measured by the number of patents generated, businesses formed,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
or articles published. And that was something we were surprised to discover.”</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Last year, neuroscientists discovered multiple ways that musical training improves the function</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and connectivity of different brain regions and improves cognitive function. Practicing a musical instrument increases brain volume and strengthens communication between brain areas.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Playing an instrument changes how the brain interprets and integrates a wide range of sensory information, especially for those who start before age seven.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The findings were presented at the Neuroscience 2013 conference in San Diego.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
In a press briefing Gottfried Schlaug, MD, PhD—who is an expert on music, neuroimaging</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and brain plasticity from Harvard Medical School—summarized the new research</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
from three different presentations at the conference. He said, "These insights suggest potential</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
new roles for musical training including fostering plasticity in the brain; have strong implications </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
for using musical training as a tool in education; and for treating a range of learning disabilities."</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Another study published in July of 2013 found that reading books, writing, and participating</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
in brain-stimulating activities at any age may preserve memory. Neuroscientists discovered</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
that reading a novel can improve brain function on a variety of levels.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
This study on the brain benefits of reading fiction was conducted at Emory University.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The study was titled, “Short- and Long-Term Effects of a Novel on Connectivity in the Brain,"</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and was published in the journal Brain Connectivity.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The researchers found that becoming engrossed in a novel enhances connectivity in the brain</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and improves brain function. Interestingly, reading fiction was found to improve the reader's ability to put themselves in another person’s shoes and flex the imagination in a way that is similar to the visualization an athlete would do while mentally rehearsing a motion in sports.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
"Our study suggests that exercising your brain by taking part in activities such as these across a person's lifetime, from childhood through old age, is important for brain health in old age," concluded co-author Robert S. Wilson, PhD.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>4. Social Connections<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
In February 2014 Professor of Psychology, John Cacioppo, from University of Chicago, presented findings which identified that the health consequences of feeling lonely</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
can trigger psychological and cognitive decline.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Cacioppo's researcher found that feeling isolated from others can: disrupt sleep,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
elevate blood pressure, increase morning rises in the stress hormone cortisol,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
alter gene expression in immune cells, increase depression, and lower overall subjective</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
well-being...all of these factors conspire to disrupt optimal brain function, connectivity,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and reduce cognitive function.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>5. Mindfulness Meditation<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
A 2013 pilot study by researchers at Harvard's Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
identified that the brain changes associated with meditation and subsequent stress reduction</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
may play an important role in slowing the progression of age-related cognitive disorders like Alzheimer's disease and other dementias. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
First author Rebecca Erwin Wells, MD, MPH, explained, "We were particularly interested</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
in looking at the default mode network (DMN)—the brain system that is engaged</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
when people remember past events or envision the future, for example—and the hippocampus—the part of the brain responsible for emotions, learning and memory—because the hippocampus</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
is known to atrophy as people progress toward mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease. We also know that as people age, there's a high correlation between perceived stress</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and Alzheimer's disease, so we wanted to know if stress reduction through meditation</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
might improve cognitive reserve."</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>6. Brain-Training Games<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Scientists are beginning to better understand the specific mechanisms of how patterns of electrical pulses (called “spikes”) trigger a cascade of changes in neural circuits linked to learning and memory. In a report published in April of 2013, researchers from Tel Aviv University found that</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
"stimulant-rich" environments and problem solving puzzles could be a contributing factor</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
in preventing or delaying the onset of Alzheimer’s disease in some people.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Researchers at University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) have created a specialized video game that may help older people boost mental skills like handling multiple tasks at once. Dr. Adam Gazzaley of UCSF and colleagues published their findings in the September 2013 journal Nature.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
In January of 2014, researchers at Johns Hopkins University reported that as few as 10 sessions</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
of cognitive training improved an older person’s reasoning ability and speed-of-processing</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
for up to a decade after the intervention. If someone received additional "booster" sessions</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
over the next three years, the improvements were even more dramatic.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>7. Get Enough Sleep<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Scientists have known for decades that the brain requires sleep to consolidate learning and memory. At the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience in San Diego in November of 2013,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
sleep researchers from Brown University presented groundbreaking new research </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
that helps explain the specifics of how the sleeping brain masters a new task.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
“It's an intensive activity for the brain to consolidate learning and so the brain may benefit from sleep perhaps because more energy is available, or because distractions and new inputs are fewer,” said study corresponding author Yuka Sasaki, a research associate professor in Brown University’s Department of Cognitive, Linguistic, and Psychological Sciences.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
"Sleep is not just a waste of time," Yuka Sasaki concludes. The extent of reorganization that the brain accomplishes during sleep is suggested by the distinct roles the two brainwave oscillations</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
appear to play. The authors conclude “that the delta oscillations appeared to govern</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
the changes in the SMA's connectivity with other areas of the cortex,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
while the fast-sigma oscillations appeared to pertain to changes within the SMA itself.”</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
A February 2014 study from University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) found</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
an association between poor sleep quality and reduced gray matter volume in the brain's frontal lobe, which helps control important processes such as working memory and executive function.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
"Previous imaging studies have suggested that sleep disturbances may be associated with</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
structural brain changes in certain regions of the frontal lobe," said lead author Linda Chao, associate adjunct professor in the Departments of Radiology and Biomedical Imaging and Psychiatry at UCSF. "The surprising thing about this study is that it suggests poor sleep quality</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
is associated with reduced gray matter volume throughout the entire frontal lobe</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and also globally in the brain."</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>8. Reduce Chronic Stress<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Neuroscientists have discovered that chronic stress and high levels of cortisol can damage the brain. A wide range of recent studies have affirmed the importance of maintaining healthy brain structure and connectivity by reducing chronic stress, which lowers cortisol.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Neuroscientists at the University of California, Berkeley, found that chronic stress triggers long-term changes in brain structure and function which can lead to cognitive decline.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Their findings might explain why young people who are exposed to chronic stress early in life</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
are prone to mental problems such as <a href="https://www.psychologytoday.com/basics/anxiety" title="Psychology Today looks at anxiety "><span style="color: windowtext;">anxiety</span></a> and mood disorders later in life,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
as well as learning difficulties.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The "stress hormone" cortisol is believed to create a domino effect that hard-wires pathways between the hippocampus and amygdala in a way that might create a vicious cycle</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
by creating a brain that becomes predisposed to be in a constant state of fight-or-flight. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The researchers found that hardening wires, may be at the heart of the hyper-connected circuits associated with prolonged stress. This results in an excess of myelin—and too much white matter—in some areas of the brain. Ideally, the brain likes to trim the fat of excess wiring through</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
neural pruning in order to maintain efficiency and streamlined communication within the brain.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Chronic stress has the ability to flip a switch in stem cells that turns them into a type of cell</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
that inhibits connections to the prefrontal cortex, which would improve learning and memory,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
but lays down durable scaffolding linked to anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Yoga has been proven to lower cortisol levels and reduce chronic stress.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I wrote a Psychology Today post about this titled, "Yoga Has Potent Health Benefits."</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>Conclusion:<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Brain Fitness Programs Should Flex Every Brain Hemisphere</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The secret to optimizing cognitive function can be found in daily habits and exercises</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
that flex both hemispheres of the cerebrum, and both hemispheres of the cerebellum. </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The eight habits I recommend here exercise all four brain hemispheres. If performed consistently, these habits can improve cognitive function and protect against cognitive decline.</div>

<b>10 Ways Some People Learn Things Much Faster Than Others<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Matt Duczeminski</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Humans’ ability to learn complex, abstract ideas and concepts is what separates us</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
from all the other species on the planet. But that doesn’t mean it’s a simple process.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
And anyone who’s taken calculus can attest to that.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
If you’re looking for “tricks” that will allow you to take in information or gain abilities effortlessly</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
like Neo in “The Matrix”, you might be disappointed to discover that you simply won’t find them here. What you will find are tried and true methods which require discipline,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
but almost guarantee success.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
If you’re willing to put in the time and effort required to learn something new, following these ways that those who learn faster already live by will certainly make the process as easy as possible.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>1. They Set a Purpose<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Everyone’s done it: you watch a video of Jimi Hendrix shredding on the guitar and think, </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
“I wish I could do that.” You take a forkful of your favorite meal from your favorite five-star restaurant and think, “I wonder if I could make this at home.”</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
You finish reading a book that has kept your attention for an entire Sunday afternoon</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and wonder how in the world someone could create something so magical.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Well, the truth is, none of these creators did so by accident. They all started out not knowing</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
the first things about how to create any of what is now seemingly easy for them to do.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
But they set a purpose for learning their skill: what did they want to learn,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and what did they hope to get out of learning it?</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
When setting out to learn something new, don’t just say, “I wish I could do that.”</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Instead, say, “I wish I could do that so I could…”, knowing your skill will be put into practice</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
once you become a master at it.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>2. They Set Measurable, Reasonable, and Reachable Goals<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Maybe you won’t be the next Hendrix, or the next Stephen King. The goal of learning isn’t to surpass anyone else but yourself. When setting out to learn a new task, you should set daily</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and long-term goals that are doable and actionable, and which build upon your current skill set.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
If you’ve decided you want to learn a new language, it would be counterproductive to set your goal as, “By the end of this month, I will be conversational in Spanish.”</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
For one thing, it most likely will not happen, and you will assuredly feel let down.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Secondly, there’s no way to measure what “conversational” Spanish is. Instead, set a goal such as, “Today I will study Spanish vocabulary related to the family, and by the end of the week </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
I will be able to teach my son the Spanish translations for father, mother, sister, and brother.”</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
By setting tangible goals, you can measure the effectiveness of your studies,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and modify them accordingly.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>3. They Set a Schedule<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Along with setting goals, you also must set a schedule for your learning.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Learning a new skill doesn’t just require practice; it requires study, comprehension,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and practical use as well. Learning to play the guitar, for example, involves reading about</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
how to string and tune the instrument, listening to how chords should sound, understanding</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
why certain chords sound good together, and how to place your fingers on the fret board.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
In this case, it’s not enough for you to say, “I’ll practice guitar for an hour a day.”</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Instead, set a schedule to include all aspects of the instrument: Today I will watch a YouTube video on stringing and tuning the guitar, then I will do it myself; tomorrow I will read about</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
the most common chords used, and practice playing each of them in succession.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
By the end of the week, I will strum a G, D, and then a C chord to create a song of my own.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
By setting a schedule for your learning, you reinforce the goals you’ve set for yourself.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>4. They Collect Multiple Resources<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Remember in high school when you were assigned 15 pages to read in your history book</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
for homework? If you were anything like your faithful Lifehacker, you probably read them, </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
memorized the names and dates you saw, passed the quiz the next day,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and promptly forgot everything you’d read the night before.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Obviously, that’s not an effective way to learn anything. To truly learn everything</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
about a specific topic, you need to collect various books, articles, videos,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and other media pertaining to the subject in question. And you actually have to use them.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Don’t be discouraged if you don’t understand a concept during an initial reading of a text;</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
make a note of it, push forward, and come back to it later. Chances are, after watching a video</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
or listening to a podcast, your mind will be able to wrap itself around ideas</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
that were completely new to you hours or days before.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>5. They Review and Record Progress<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Learning is, of course, a long-term process. But it’s not one long, continuous process</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
with a singular goal (as mentioned before); there are steps along the way.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Each of these steps need to be reviewed and evaluated upon completion to assure accuracy,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and to tweak technique if needed. Like we said before, it’s not enough to simply read pages</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
from a book, especially if you didn’t comprehend what you read.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Be honest with yourself at the end of a learning session. If something was difficult,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
make a note of it, and come back to it. Pressing forward to the next step without solidifying </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
your foundation of understanding will certainly lead to disaster.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
On the other hand, recording and reviewing your accomplishments over the past week, month,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
or year is a great confidence booster. Even if you’re not the best (yet),</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
you’ll see how far you’ve come from knowing absolutely nothing.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>6. They Follow a Model<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
No matter how good you get at whatever skill you’ve set out to learn,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
there will be ways to get better.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
And, unless you’re a World Record holder, there will always be someone better than you.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
This isn’t a bad thing; having someone to look up to is beneficial in many ways.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
For one, it gives you something to strive for. Secondly, you can further your learning</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
by analyzing an expert’s performance. Sure, Hendrix taught himself how to play guitar,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
but he was influenced by greats like BB King and Muddy Waters.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The man commonly thought to be the greatest guitarist of all time may never have even picked up</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
a 6-string if it wasn’t for the greats that preceded him. When learning something new,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
don’t be pressured to reinvent the wheel – just look to improve upon it in your own way.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>7. They Search Out Feedback<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
We live in such an amazing time, in which professionals in all fields</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
are more than happy to give feedback to beginners in order to help them improve.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Don’t be shy; many experts are honored that people come to them for advice.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Of course, they may not have time to get to everyone though, so broaden your scope.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
If you’re trying to break into the blogging business, search out other authors</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
who have successful blogs within your chosen niche, and read about them.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Once you have a good idea about how they got where they are,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and you have a decent amount of articles posted, seek them out and see what they say.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Don’t be discouraged if they have some criticism; it’s exactly why you contacted them</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
in the first place. Instead, use their advice to focus your practice on improving those specific areas. Constructive criticism from experts is perhaps the most valuable tool</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
you can have when learning something new.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>8. They Teach Others<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
As we just mentioned, there are a ton of experts out there who are more than happy to teach beginners how to get moving. You can be this person to anyone below you in skill level!</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
While watching pros do their thing can be intimidating,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
teaching people who are just getting started has the opposite effect.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Although it might be a tad selfish, it definitely will make you feel better watching a beginner fumble through playing their first song; but this is mostly because you’ve been there, and you know</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
they’ll soon improve. Doing so also gives you perspective; you might not be a professional,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
but you definitely have gotten better from when you just started.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Lastly, to be able to teach something requires you to have a deeper understanding of the skill,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
so you can explain to your student why what their learning is important,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
and where they will go from where they are.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>9. They Reward Themselves<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Successful people find various ways to reward themselves. Mind you, these rewards</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
are not counterintuitive (such as rewarding yourself for hitting your fastest mile mark by taking</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
a week off from training, or rewarding yourself for your weight loss by eating a bowl of ice cream), but actually build upon accomplishments. Notice the implication of the previous example:</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
the person might be training to get into shape,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
but he’d much rather be sitting on the couch watching TV.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
If he actually wanted to beat his fastest mile, he wouldn’t take a day off at all. Instead,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
he might reward himself by running through the park instead of on the treadmill,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
or taking his kids for a relaxing jog instead of going all out.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The reward and motivation to get better is intrinsic: the outcome is the reward.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
With this way of thinking, every small accomplishment made is another reward</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
on the path to success.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<b>10. They Learn on Their Own Terms<o:p></o:p></b></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
The best learners are able to translate abstract concepts and ideas into layman’s terms,</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
not for others, but for themselves. I used to find my wife, an incredibly hard-working student</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
of optometry, muttering to herself about a subconjunctival hemorrhage caused by </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
a ruptured blood vessel in the eye, which sounded absolutely frightening until she clarified: </div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
“Oh, it’s just a bloodshot eye.” (Note: That’s an oversimplification that I had to Google</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
to even come close to pulling off, but hopefully you get my point).</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
Using Tier III language (field-specific jargon), and translating it into every day vocabulary</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
is imperative to truly understanding the concepts behind the skill you wish to learn.</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
By using the language of the field in your every day life, the learned skill becomes</div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
not just something you know, but it becomes a part of who you are.</div>

My name's Adam. Welcome again.<br />
<br />
Today's lesson is a grammar lesson, and this is a question that I am asked often. What is the difference between "if" and "whether"? Okay? It's a very good question. It's pretty simple, straightforward, but we're going to look at both of these in relation to each other.<br />
<br />
First of all, let's make sure everybody understands "whether" is not spelled the same as "weather", like sunny, raining. This is about rain, sun, snow, wind, temperature;<br />
this is similar to "if", it's about having choices. Okay?<br />
<br />
So, in some situations, "if" and "whether" are interchangeable, but the best way to not make a mistake, not to mix them up in the wrong context is to always use "if" for conditionals; always use "whether" when you're talking about two alternatives, two choices. Okay? You'll see what I mean.<br />
<br />
When they can be interchanged. First of all, when they are used as noun clauses, means they can be the object or the subject of a sentence, they can mean the same thing. But again, avoid using them the same if you don't want to make mistakes. "Do you know if Dan is coming?" Do you know what? If Dan is coming. "Do you know whether Dan is coming?" In this case, they basically mean the same thing. Yes or no: is he coming or is he not coming? You could add the "or not?" here:<br />
<br />
"Do you know whether Dan is coming or not?" But the word "whether" already gives you a choice between yes or no in this particular case, so this is not necessary. It's understood. Okay?<br />
<br />
Now, let's look at these two sentences: "I don't know if the exam is on Friday or Saturday.",<br />
<br />
"I don't know whether the exam is on Friday or Saturday." So here, we're looking directly at a choice. When I use "whether": "I don't know whether the exam is on Friday or Saturday." So again,<br />
<div>
you have two options when you look at "whether". Friday is one option, Saturday is another option.<br />
<div>
The problem here is if you use "if", "if" is not limited to two options. "I don't know if the exam<br />
is on Friday or Saturday, or if it's next week sometime." So here, although they seem to mean<br />
the same thing, the "if" gives you other options that the "whether" doesn't.<br />
"Whether": one, two. "If": one, two, or something completely different.<br />
So if you want to avoid making this mistake, use "whether" for the choices, use...<br />
Save "if" for when you have your conditional sentence.<br />
<br />
Now, what is a conditional sentence?<br />
A conditional sentence is using "if" as an adverb clause.<br />
There's a condition. If "A" happens, "B" will happen. Okay?<br />
One thing needs to happen for the second thing to happen, that's the condition.<br />
So: "Let me know", oh, sorry. I forgot this word, here. "Let me know if you're coming.",<br />
"Let me know whether you're coming." In this case, they're both okay.<br />
"Let me know whether you're coming or not."<br />
Now, what's the difference between: "Let me know if you're coming", </div>
<div>
"Let me know whether you're coming or not"? If you are coming, yes, let me know.<br />
<br />
This is a conditional.<br />
If this is true, do this. "Let me know whether you're coming or not." If you're coming, let me know; </div>
<div>
if you're not coming, let me know. So in this case, both apply. Okay?<br />
So, again, use this to... The condition. This is the condition, this is the result. Here, this is going<br />
to happen regardless. So we're going to look at this in a second in more detail. Okay?<br />
"I'll come over if you want me to." If you want it, I will do it; if you don't want it, I will not do it.<br />
So this is the condition. If you want me to, I'll come over.<br />
This is the condition, this is the result. So your best option is to always use "if" with conditionals,<br />
use "whether" to talk about two alternatives.<br />
<br />
Now, the other common use of "whether" is to mean "regardless". Doesn't matter what happens, regardless of the situation, here's what I want you to do. "I'm coming over whether you like it<br />
or not." Okay. "Whether you like it or not" means if you like it, I'm coming over; if you don't like it, </div>
<div>
