Lorem Ipsum
Lorem Ipsum
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

End of globalization?
 
President Trump's "America First" strategy of the last four years had increased tensions between the United States and the rest of the world, specifically China. It was already leading to friction in the smooth supply-and-demand economic chain that has been the hallmark of an interdependent global world. But the self-isolation during the pandemic could mean the end of globalization as we know it.
Some people worry that this moment is strengthening the hand of nationalism that was rising before the pandemic and that it is accelerating the changing relationships between countries.

The Influenza (Flu) Virus
The Influenza (Flu) Virus
 
Next to the common cold, influenza or "the flu" is perhaps the most familiar respiratory infection in the world. In the United States alone, approximately 25 to 50 million people contract influenza each year. The symptoms of the flu are similar to those of the common cold but tend to be more severe.
 
A number of complications, such as the onset of bronchitis and pneumonia, can also occur in association with influenza and are especially common among the elderly, young children, and anyone with a suppressed immune system.

Android task monitoring
This project is exclusively designed to simplify the tracking and monitoring of day-to-day activities of the busy modern life. We are so busy in our daily lives right now that it becomes impossible to keep track of our daily events, meetings, and appointments. To address this issue, this project focuses on developing a Weekly Task Alerting System for Android devices that can alert users of the tasks/appointments that are scheduled for each day in a week. 
The project is primarily a reminder app powered by an AI chatbot that reminds users of all the tasks that are due daily. Users can use this application to set goals and achieve them, thereby increasing productivity and simplifying their lives.

Global warming
Global warming is the long-term heating of Earth's climate system observed since the pre-industrial period (between 1850 and 1900) due to human activities, primarily fossil fuel burning, which increases heat-trapping greenhouse gas levels in Earth's atmosphere.

Families are invaluable
Families are invaluable resources for teachers. 
 
Websites: A homework website that provides assignments for the week is very helpful toparents and guardians of students with ADHD. Class news regarding projects and theweek’s instructional topics can also be posted.
Homework Hotline: A homework hotline that gives the assignments for the night andalso provides helpful suggestions for completing them can help families support theirchildren’s work completion.
 
We should emphasis a point here: ADHD is not caused by bad parenting
Causes for mental disorders are very difficult to pinpoint, but the general consensus is that they are products of the interaction of genetics with the environment. 
Certain people who have genes that influence how the brain processes dopamine may be at increased risk for ADHD, but having the genes doesn’t necessarily mean a person will show signs of the condition. 
There are a number of things that parents can do or not do that alter a child’s development—and their chances of having ADHD.

Visual and Environmental Prompts:
Use behavioral and environmental prompts to increase desired classroom behaviors. For example, pictorial prompts of students attending in class serve as a reminder of the teacher’s expectations for learning and behavior. Electronic visual aids such as interactive whiteboards and document cameras are helpful for capturing the attention of students with ADHD (Piffner, 2011).

Additionally, the use of tablets and computers may engage students more fully in learning activities.
Priming Procedure: Prime the student before an assignment or lesson byreviewing a list of student-identified privileges or reinforcements that can beearned following a specified work period.
Proximity Control: Teacher proximity is highly effective for helping studentswith ADHD maintain attention. For example, the teacher may move closer to thestudent when giving directions and monitoring seatwork.
Timers: Set a timer to indicate how much time remains in the lesson or workperiod. The timer should be clearly visible so students can check remaining timeand monitor their progress.
 
Wristwatch or Smartphone: Teach the student to use a wristwatch orsmartphone to manage time when completing assigned work. Many watches andsmartphones have built-in timers that can be programmed to beep at set intervals.
Music: Play different levels and tempos of music to help students understand theactivity level appropriate for particular lessons. For example, using quiet classicalmusic for individual learning activities helps block distractions and creates a calmclassroom environment (U.S. Department of Education, 2006).
Children with ADHD require specific and frequent feedback and/or reinforcementimmediately following the demonstration of desired behaviors. When students arelearning new behaviors, it is generally important to reinforce close approximations firstas a way to shape behavior. Once a behavior is established, the frequency ofreinforcement can be gradually decreased. Students with ADHD tend to quickly loseinterest with repetition, so a variety of easy-to-implement reinforcers should beconsidered.Praise, Praise, Praise: Attentiveness and appropriate classroom behavior areprerequisites for learning; therefore, interventions that promote these behaviorsshould be an integral part of the teaching process for all students. When teachersare attentive to positive behavior and specifically praise students for thesebehaviors, they can engage students before their attention drifts while highlightingdesired behavior (U.S. Department of Education, 2006).
