This document provides instructions for three listening activities for intermediate English language learners. The first activity involves presenting information about a robot to students and having them answer questions in groups. The second divides students into teams to listen to a story being dictated and answer comprehension questions by holding up colored cards. The third involves reading an article about solar energy to students and asking true/false comprehension questions. The activities are designed to both develop students' listening skills and reinforce their efforts through competition and prizes.
El ensayo triaxial es un ensayo complejo que proporciona información sobre los parámetros del suelo y su relación esfuerzo-deformación. Consiste en colocar una muestra de suelo dentro de una membrana y aplicar presión en todas las direcciones, luego aumentar la presión axial hasta la falla. Realizando varias pruebas con diferentes presiones laterales, se determinan los parámetros de fricción y cohesión del suelo. El ensayo puede realizarse de diferentes formas dependiendo del tipo de suelo y sus condiciones.

This early release schedule outlines a shortened school day, with each class period lasting only 30 minutes instead of the usual 50-55 minutes. The day is divided into 7 periods from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM, with a 5 minute passing period between each 30 minute class.
My survey led me to gather the precious data of 80 people from 17 to 40 years old, mostly living in Paris and Lyon. I crossed it with statistics I found about social networks energy consumption, behaviours and daily use of social networks. It helped me to created personas.
My process:
Gather general data
Gather precise data on users
Look for patterns
Deducing main research fields, important for my design
Creating unique personas with different personnalities, needs, expectations
I ended up creating XXX personas you can consult on the slideshare below? [A part is still in french and I will translate it soon]
Benjamin Franklin's principles of success include temperance, silence, order, resolution, frugality, industry, and sincerity. He advises eating and drinking in moderation, avoiding unnecessary conversation, having a place for everything and dedicating time to each task, resolving to do what you should and following through, making expenses only for good purposes and wasting nothing, losing no time but being always usefully employed, and using no deceit but thinking and speaking innocently and justly. Franklin credited regularly practicing these principles with his own success.

1. The document provides analysis questions for three scenes from the films Knocked Up and Forgetting Sarah Marshall. The questions require identifying and analyzing various verbal, non-verbal, and technical codes that establish characters, generate laughter, represent gender, and move the narrative.
2. Specific codes and theories mentioned include facial expressions, shot types, dialogue, editing, the representation of immaturity, new masculinity, the battle of the sexes, and the role of suffering in romantic comedies.
3. Students are asked to identify examples from the scenes and support their analysis using evidence from media language codes.
This document provides analysis tasks for three scenes from the film "Knocked Up". The tasks require analyzing verbal, non-verbal and technical codes that establish characters, representations, and narrative elements. For the first scene, codes are identified that show Alison's superiority over Ben through her facial expressions in a high angle shot and Ben's carefree lifestyle through his dialogue in another high angle shot. Technical codes are also noted that construct Ben as the "new man" and confirm his status as a "loveable loser". Similar analysis is provided for two additional scenes regarding establishing Ben's immaturity, the central couple's antagonism, generating audience laughter, and conforming to romantic comedy genre tropes about tears and suffering.
The document provides a comparative analysis of the representations of gender in the romantic comedy films Knocked Up (2007) and Forgetting Sarah Marshall (2008). Both films depict male protagonists that are "well meaning, but immature" - Ben lives a carefree lifestyle until he gets a woman pregnant, while Peter experiences a dramatic breakup. Through analyses of scenes, the document finds that both films portray the male characters as "emasculated" and generate laughter through highlighting their lack of maturity and masculinity. The portrayal of the immature, emotionally vulnerable male is a common theme and gender representation in the romantic comedy genre.
The document provides a comparative analysis of the representations of gender in the romantic comedy films Knocked Up and Forgetting Sarah Marshall. It summarizes that in both films, the male protagonists are portrayed as lazy and carefree, in contrast to the hardworking female protagonists who are superior. Both films present examples of the "new man" archetype through characters like Seth Rogen's slacker character in Knocked Up and Jason Segel's lazy character in Forgetting Sarah Marshall. The analysis examines how the films use techniques like camera shots, dialogue and character behaviors to represent the gender dynamics and "battle of the sexes" between the male and female leads.
This document provides advice for a comparative analysis controlled assessment in media studies. It instructs students to bring their key scene booklets, notes, and to rewatch the key scenes to find extra examples. Students should know the relevant theory, terminology, and review exemplar essays to understand how to structure their own analysis at a high level. The document emphasizes reviewing the mark scheme to understand what the examiner expects to be included in the analysis.

This document provides an overview of theories for a comparative analysis of the romantic comedy genre. It discusses several key elements of romantic comedies, including antagonism between central couples, unrequited love, and the theme of the battle of the sexes. The document also analyzes characters and their representations in the romantic comedy Knocked Up, discussing how characters like Ben Stone conform to or challenge stereotypes. It references several critics and their perspectives on romantic comedy conventions.
The document discusses the representation of male and female genders in two romantic comedy films, "Knocked Up" and "Forgetting Sarah Marshall". It notes that the male lead in "Knocked Up", Ben, can be described as challenging stereotypes by being "well meaning but immature". Examples from the films are given to support how the male characters are portrayed as immature. The female characters are said to be represented in binary opposition to the males. The impact of these gender representations on the target audience is discussed.
This document provides guidance for writing a comparative analysis of the films "Knocked Up" and "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" focusing on how they represent gender. The analysis should include an introduction briefly describing the characters and narratives. The main body should analyze how the films similarly and differently represent the male gender through specific scenes, using relevant film theory. It should then analyze female representation in the same way before concluding by looking back at points made in the introduction and focusing on a stereotype example for each gender. Relevant film theorists like Mortimer and Gauntlett should be referenced throughout.
This document provides guidance for a film analysis assignment on the representation of gender roles in the film Fight Club. It begins with learning objectives focused on understanding how ideologies apply to texts and analyzing key scenes. It then discusses the "Wildman" ideology presented by Robert Bly that is embodied by the character Tyler Durden and his guidance of the narrator. Students are instructed to analyze examples of this in their exercise books. Later, it addresses how the characters have been "robbed of their manhood" and the positions of misandry and misogyny presented in the film. Students are tasked with writing a 30 mark response analyzing the representation of gender roles in Fight Club based on the theories and notes discussed.
The document discusses the film Fight Club and the character Tyler Durden. It references several critics' analyses of the film and Durden's representation of Friedrich Nietzsche's ideology. The document examines a key scene where Jack and Tyler have a brutal fist fight. After the fight, Tyler cradles Jack and declares they just had a "near life experience," representing Nietzsche's idea of using pain and suffering to access greater strength. The document suggests this scene embodies Nietzschean philosophy and how the film challenges modern notions of safety.
This document discusses Sigmund Freud's theory of "penis envy" and how it relates to the film Fight Club. The theory suggests that females experience anxiety upon realizing they do not have a penis. The document instructs students to produce a presentation arguing both for and against this view of the film, using evidence from the text itself. Students are asked to present their findings to the class and allow time for questions and debate.
Social disorganization theory claims that delinquency results from the inability of a community to realize shared values and solve resident problems, leading to a breakdown in social control. Strain theory suggests that social structures can pressure individuals into crime by creating goals they cannot legally achieve. For example, the gang in City of God forces Steak to kill a child through threats of violence, and the poverty and instability of the city provide an environment of frustration that strains residents and may lead them to criminal decisions in hopes of escaping their situation.
