Nature versus nurture, this statement causes quite a controversy, whether inherited genes or the environment influences and effects development of personality (our behavior, intelligence, and ability). Social scientists have struggled with this issue for centuries, whether our development is born (nature) or made (nurture). Some believe that it is strictly our genes; others believe it is the environment, and still others believe it is based on both, our genes and the environment. Either way, the debate continues on and will for centuries to come. There is still no clear conclusion to this debate and probably never will.

The nature side of this debate argues that a person development is based on what they are born with genetically. It is apparent that genes provide humans with their own physical equipment, our beginnings. (more…)

After reading watching a film by Eric Bress and J. Mackye Gruber called The Butterfly Effect once more I went to smoke my usual cigarette before sleep and suddenly discovered a new side of this film. For those who didn’t see the film I can say in few words its main idea. The main character got an ability to go back to past and to change some episodes of his life. And every time he changed a little episode his whole life took a completely different direction. It reflects the main idea of Chaos Theory which states that even a light move of butterfly wing in one part of the world can cause a destructive hurricane in another part of the world (Edward N. Lorenz).  I think it means that all events in our world are connected and every event causes a chain of other events. It’s an interesting theory and I seem to believe it but my essay is not about this. In that film the man got a chance to correct his mistakes made in past to improve his current life. And this is a dream of any person. Some of you can say that you are never sorry for your mistakes but it’s not true. Instead of declaring this life position which seems to sound cool, you’d better look deeper inside of yourself and find out if it’s really true. Everyone is sorry for some deeds. (more…)

A time when outsourcing does not seem as a feasible solution is when the problem concerns technical support. Technical support is a major function of an organization and it holds a lot of importance. Technical support is one thing that must remain in control of the organization and not the outsourcing company. Technical support provides a major contribution to achieving competitive advantage.

“You have to look at the overall importance of offering quality technical support. When you’re talking about capacity and how much you can sell, you have to look not only at technical capacity, but also your customer service capacity. If you’re selling within your technical capacity but over your technical support capacity, you’re in for ruin. Outsourcing technical support is certainly an option, but it’s not something we would do.” (more…)

My approach to teaching stems from two beliefs: the first is that learning is a shared responsibility between student and teacher- both parties have to actively participate in the educational process; and the second is that different students have different mentalities and hence different perceptions of what a teacher has to say. In any field of study it stands true that no matter how lucid a teacher’s explanation is, some students will not grasp the concept forthwith. Mathematics is no different, in fact it is more so.

I see mathematics as a discipline that holds a plethora of problem solving techniques. To optimally use these techniques to understand and see the beauty of the subject, and to actively engage the students in the educational process I believe that traditional teaching methods, a variety of applications, and modern technology should be blended in the classroom.
