| The initial vision was to provide a tutorial for Moodle site access and course information for a [[Student|student]].
| |
| | |
| =Moodle site access and navigation=
| |
| * Logging in
| |
| * Site Navigation
| |
| * Finding a course
| |
| * Enrolling and Unenrolling
| |
| | |
| =Course information=
| |
| ==Settings==
| |
| [[Image:Administration_Block_student.JPG]]
| |
| :Students can see information about themselves and edit some of it by using links in their administration block.
| |
| ===Your Profile===
| |
| | |
| [[Image:Profile_Edit_icon_link.JPG]] The profile contains information about you. Other users on Moodle can see your profile if they click on your name. Profile information includes the description of yourself (if you have entered one) your name, location, email address (if you chose to make it accessible) and the list of courses you are enrolled on. When you view your profile you can edit it by clicking on the 'edit' tab. In your profile you can add a picture of yourself (or anything else you like). This image will appear next to your name in forum messages etc.
| |
| ====Updating your Profile====
| |
| [[Image:Profile_Edit_Student_Tabs.JPG]]
| |
| In your profile you can also update information such as your location or email address and you can see your activity (so can your teacher).
| |
| | |
| Please update your profile if you change your email address, as this will enable you to receive updates or information sent out via Moodle. If you choose to automatically subscribe to forums, you will receive email copies of all new messages in forums you participate in. Forum tracking is useful to use as well, as it will let you quickly identify new messages in forums.
| |
| | |
| There are several settings that are accessible from your profile that will help make your use of Moodle more productive.
| |
| | |
| *'''Email format''': You can choose to have emails sent from Moodle in Plain text format or Pretty HTML format. HTML format will include images and the Moodle colour scheme in emails, but will be slightly larger in size.
| |
| *'''Forum auto-subscribe''': If you select yes for this it will mean that when you post a message to a forum, you will be subscribed to that forum and receive email copies of all messages for that forum. You may unsubscribe from forums if you wish as well.
| |
| *'''Email digest type''': You may choose to receive all emails from Moodle in one daily message. There is also the option to receive either the complete message or just the Subjects from forums you subscribe to.
| |
| *'''Forum tracking''': This is a useful option to enable. If it is enabled on your Moodle site it will highlight unread forum messages so you can easily see what is new.

| == Allergies and Asthma ==
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| Abstract
| |
| | |
| Over the last decade allergies and asthma have become increasingly
| |
| | |
| common among the New York City population especially the population in
| |
| | |
| Harlem. An allergy is an abnormal sensitivity to an allergen that is inhaled,
| |
| | |
| eaten or touched while asthma is a chronic lung condition that affects your
| |
| | |
| airways causing constriction of mostly upper segment of the airways
| |
| | |
| resulting in difficulty breathing because of poor air passage this could also
| |
| | |
| due to abnormal sensitivity to sunstances or allergen.
| |
| | |
| This project required the use of various materials to explain the necessary
| |
| | |
| points, it also includesbthe different symptoms of asthma, and allergies and
| |
| | |
| methods used to assess people who have allergies or asthma.
| |
| | |
| Spirometry is an instrument that is used to measure the volumes of
| |
| | |
| the lungs, during the spirometry test diferernt lung volumes are measured.
| |
| | |
| Sometimes not just the amount but the speed of air that can be
| |
| | |
| inhaled and exhaled are also measured. It enables one to compare the
| |
| | |
| different volumes that are compared to normal volumes to determine if
| |
| | |
| individual volume is below expectation or at expected. The below expected
| |
| | |
| values can be seen in astmatics or people with other lung diseases.
| |
| | |
| On contrary the method or test used to determine if a person has allergies
| |
| | |
| or sensitivity to a substance is called the pollen count.A Pollen count is the
| |
| | |
| measurement of the number of grains of pollen in a cubic meter of air .The
| |
| | |
| instrument used to make pollen counts is a rotored sampler. A rotorod
| |
| | |
| sampler is composed of twosmall polystyrene rods.One surface of each rod
| |
| | |
| is coated with silicon grease to capture and retain impacted particles.
| |
| | |
| Pollen counts are useful for allergy sufferers and their physicians to
| |
| | |
| correlate symptoms and causative agents.The instruments used for the
| |
| | |
| spirometry test is the spirometer.Thespirometer consist of a mouthpiece
| |
| | |
| and disposable tubing that is connected to a machine.
| |
| | |
| Types of allergies known are food allergies, and allergic rhims. The
| |
| | |
| symptoms of allergies are, swelling of mouth, diarrhea, running nose,
| |
| | |
| itchy eyes, and cough etc while the symptoms of asthma are coughing
| |
| | |
| wheezing,and chest tightning. Thereare also different levels of
| |
| | |
| asthma.The first level which is mild intermittent asthma; victims have the
| |
| | |
| symptoms less than two times a week,and they do not have problems
| |
| | |
| between flare ups.The second level which is mild persistent asthma;
| |
| | |
| victims have symptoms more than two times a week, but not more than
| |
| | |
| one time per day. At the moderate persistent level which is the third level,
| |
| | |
| victims have symptoms everyday,and they use their rescue medication
| |
| | |
| everyday. At the final level known as the severe persistent asthma,
| |
| | |
| victims have symptoms constantly ,and their physical activity decreases.

| Recommendation on writing good paragraph
| |
|
| |
| Abstract
| |
| It is important to know how to write a paragraph.There are certain
| |
| | |
| rules you should follow in order to write a good paragraph ,you will know
| |
| | |
| how to write papers if you know how to write paragraphs. When writing a
| |
| | |
| paragraph you must analyze the information you have,and also think about
| |
| | |
| it well. When you do this,you are guaranteed to have a good
| |
| | |
| report/paper.The purpose of this project is to enable young scientist to write good reports on their research. The aim is to understand specific guidelines
| |
| | |
| in writing a paragraph.
| |
| | |
| When writing a paragraph we must always begin with a topic sentence.
| |
| | |
| An example of a topic sentence is “There are three reasons why America is
| |
| | |
| one of the richest countries in the world”. Another thing we should keep in
| |
| | |
| mind when writing a paragraph is to reduce the number of introductory words
| |
| | |
| or phrases to your sentences and paragraphs, in other words do not make
| |
| | |
| your topic sentence long. Also when writing we should avoid the use of
| |
| | |
| passive voice. We should try to use the active voice as much as
| |
| | |
| possible.When using passive voice you are telling the reader that you do
| |
| | |
| not know who performed a specific action. Passive voice also strips your
| |
| | |
| prose of interesting historical personalities, and it includes unnecesssary
| |
| | |
| words in a paragraph.
| |
| | |
| Cutting is another strategy we should use when writing a paragraph .
| |
| | |
| When you read over your sentences carefully as you are writing you will
| |
| | |
| realize that there are many sentences that are not necessary.That is when
| |
| | |
| the use of an ellipse comes into place.An ellipse is used when you cut words
| |
| | |
| out of quotation.
| |
| | |
| Finally when writing a paragraph you should not use contractions e.g don't
| |
| | |
| ,shouldn't, won't. Write it in their complete form. When you are done writing
| |
| | |
| your paper you should check, and see if your paragraphs are in their same
| |
| | |
| tense,and also if your work makes sense.
| |
| | |
| In conclusion the purpose of this paper is to help young scientist improve
| |
| | |
| in their writing.And they will do this by following the guidelines of writing some
| |
| | |
| of which are above . When they follow these steps they are bound to write
| |
| | |
| excellent reports.

| ABSTRACT
| |
| | |
| A library is a place were people go to collect information. It can also be
| |
| | |
| referred as a collections of books. Many young scientist today wonder where
| |
| | |
| they can get good information on their research or report. Well if your one of
| |
| | |
| those young individuals out there.The best place you can go is online, the
| |
| | |
| memorial sloan-kettering cancer center library. The mskcc library is meant to
| |
| | |
| be presented to several audiences. In this paper you will learn how to get on
| |
| | |
| the library website, and how it will help you find the information you want.
| |
| | |
| You will also learn about different liberians and where they work .
| |
| | |
| The first step you take when getting on a website is that you log on with the
| |
| | |
| address which is http://library.mskcc.org When you do this the next thing
| |
| | |
| you do is go inside mskcc,then you select library resources then you will see
| |
| | |
| all the library resources.You can choose any library resource you want. Then
| |
| | |
| when you are done you can click under Tabs and quick links.You can
| |
| | |
| also choose any link you want .But before we go further under the library
| |
| | |
| resources are patient families ,and caregivers,medical teams ,and research
| |
| | |
| programs,and administrative staff. The administrative staff provides
| |
| | |
| selected information of interest to managers of the memorial sloan kettering
| |
| | |
| cancer center.Under the medical teams ,and research programs is cancer
| |
| | |
| biology for those interested in basic science research ,and for those
| |
| | |
| interested in clinical services and research there is general medicine.
| |
| | |
| Another library resource you can go under is the electronic journals
| |
| | |
| were it offers thousands of electronic journals for employees and
| |
| | |
| students,and to get electronic books you have to log off campus an
| |
| | |
| example of an electronic journals is the AACN clinical issues.
| |
| | |
| A liberian is an information professional trained in library science ,and
| |
| | |
| information science. Some famous liberians are J.Edgar Hoover ,Benjamin
| |
| | |
| Franklin ,and Laura Bush. Some places a liberian works in universities,
| |
| | |
| public schools, hospitals,and research centers .
| |
| | |
| In conclusion a library is where you can find all the information you need
| |
| | |
| for your paper .So if you feel like you do not have enough information go to
| |
| | |
| http://library.mskcc.org or contact liberian at 212-639-7439.

| Radioactive Treatment of C. Neoformans infection.
| |
|
| |
| Abstract
| |
| | |
| Cryptococcus neoformans is a yeast like fungus that can live in both plants
| |
| | |
| and animals. It can be also described as a species of fungus that causes
| |
| | |
| cryptocosus. In this paper you wil learn how radiation can be used to cure
| |
| | |
| yeast infection in plants ,and animals,and also you will learn about the
| |
| | |
| materials ,and the methods taken during the experiment.
| |
| | |
| Radiation is energy in the form of moving subatomic particles. Radiation
| |
| | |
| can be used to cure yeast infection by eliminating the yeast.Yeast infection in
| |
| | |
| humans can have a lot of disturbing symptoms like skin infection,your sight
| |
| | |
| will begin to get poor,hearing defects, they are sometimes mistaken for acne.
| |
| | |
| Radiation can sometimes be used to cure other diseases like cancer. A
| |
| | |
| biodistribution during the experiment was to evaluate
| |
| | |
| the ability of radioactive ions on cryptococcus.
| |
| | |
| Some of the materials used for the experiment are a flask,, microscope
| |
| | |
| a hemocytometerI,and some hydroperoxide. Some of the methods taken
| |
| | |
| during the experiment were ,that 24067 cells were cultured,then they were
| |
| | |
| counted on the hemocytometer which is a device used to count blood cells .It
| |
| | |
| is made of a thick glass microscope slide with rectangular identation that
| |
| | |
| creates a chamber of certain dimensions.The cells were counted on the
| |
| | |
| hemocytometer to see how concertrated they were then the AIJ was infected
| |
| | |
| with yeast .
| |
| | |
| The result of this experiment was that the more hydroperoxide put on to
| |
| | |
| the cells the more concentrated they were,and the more IGG grams the more
| |
| | |
| positive the cells were.
| |
| | |
| In conclusion cryptococcus neoformans is a yeast infection that can
| |
| | |
| effect both plants ,and animals,and radiation can be used to cure diseases
| |
| | |
| like cancer ,and cryptococcus.
