List Of Windows Services That Can Be Safely Disabled Windows Services are executable programs that run constantly in the background and perform specific functions on their own. Users with administrator privileges can choose a default startup behavior for these services. For instance, they can be set to start at system boot, paused and restarted whenever required, or simply disabled. While some services come with the operating system by default, at times different third party software also add their own services. While leaving the services running in the background allows certain tools and utilities to function better, disabling the ones you don’t need can also increase the performance of your system. In what follows, we’ll guide you through the process of starting, stopping and disabling Windows Services. How To Disable Windows System Services Before you start or stop a service, it is important to know its function so that stopping it does not disrupt any important Windows feature or task.

Pop-Up Punctuation Mini Project Punctuation seems to cause a lot of problems for learners. I am not sure why, but many learners have failed to grasp even basic rules, such as capitalisation. Others though, are ready to learn the more sophisticated marks such as semi-colons. Correcting their writing and asking them to read constantly to see effective use of punctuation is one way to tackle these issues. However, I wanted to address this area in a more direct way - but experience means I know that 'teaching' grammar explicitly, does not work. Being a fan of inquiry-based learning, I wanted to find a way that put the onus on them to learn, not me to teach. I created and shared a Google Doc outlining the project, as follows:- Each learner had to sign up to research and create a punctuation mark pop-up from the list in the task sheet - so that all punctuation marks were covered. Once their pop-ups were created, they checked them against the rubric before sharing them with each other.
Martin Seligman: The new era of positive psychology When I was president of the American Psychological Association,they tried to media-train me,and an encounter I had with CNNsummarizes what I'm going to be talking about today,which is the eleventh reason to be optimistic.The editor of Discover told us 10 of them,I'm going to give you the eleventh.

And I said, "Great."And she said, "But this is CNN, so you only get a sound bite." (Laughter) And cameras rolled, and she said, "Professor Seligman,what is the state of psychology today?"" "Cut.

Information Literacy: Process Model Evaluation Information Literacy Researching information literacy to provide a coherent step-by-step process to support learners is something of an ongoing process. Today's learners, whilst able to 'use' the Internet for a variety of social purposes, are not actually as media-savvy as we assume. Whilst this notion seems incongruous initially, anyone involved with teens and tweens in the digital world knows that in reality, they are often not making great choices - even in social realms. Consadine, Horton and Moorman believe that the "extensive use of ICT often creates a false sense of competency"; the paradox is that this generation "have access to more information, than any generation in history" (Foehr, 2006; Lenhart, Arafeh, Smith, & Macgill, 2008; Lenhart & Madden, 2005; Lenhart, Madden, & Hitlin, 2005; Rideout, Roberts, & Foehr, 2005). Searching has become synonymous with "Google" to a generation who do not look beyond the first few hits the ubiquitous search engine returns.

197 Educational YouTube Channels You Should Know About 197 Educational YouTube Channels You Should Know About If you don’t have a YouTube channel as an education provider, there’s a good chance you’re behind the times. Nearly every major educational institution in the world now hosts its own collection of videos featuring news, lectures, tutorials, and open courseware. Just as many individuals have their own channel, curating their expertise in a series of broadcasted lessons. These channels allow instructors to share information and blend media in unprecedented and exciting new ways. From teaching Mandarin Chinese to busting myths about Astronomy, the educational possibilities are virtually endless pun intended! Because we can now sift through thousands of resources while navigating a single repository, the potential for inspiration and growth in the field of education has reached a new height.

Language and Imagery to Introduce: A New School Year "The educational system is moving with monolithic slowness in this [visual literacy] area, still persisting in an emphasis on the verbal mode to the exclusion of the rest of the human sensorium and with little sensitivity, if any, to the overwhelmingly visual character of the child's learning experience." D. Dondis. (1973) A primer of visual literacy. We have just arrived in another new country to start a new life and work in a new school (see Global Living and Connection). My Masters focuses on technology in the classroom and this semester, I will be studying how to use technology for instructional improvement - using tech for AfL essentially - as well as using synchronous, asynchronous, and multimedia technologies, which will complement my new role as Project Manager of Global Youth Debates (see my post, Is PowerPoint Evil?

Eight Habits that Improve Cognitive Function Digital games are incapable of giving the entire brain a full workout. These digital programs 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. Although the cerebellum is only 10 percent of brain volume, it houses over 50 percent of the brain's total neurons. Brain-Training Games Increase Sedentary Screen Time 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.” Eight Habits that Improve Cognitive Function 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.
