1.   ACTIVITY: Identifying the different parts of a flowering  plant

●THE REASON FOR DOING THIS ACTIVITY:

To see whether you can identify the different parts of a plant.

 

●MATERIALS (what you need):•    a drawing of a flowering plant.

●INSTRUCTIONS (what you must do):

   1. Look at the drawing below. There are no labels added to the drawing. 

Scientists often need to label drawings and diagrams. This is a very important skill!

 

   2. When we give labels for a drawing, there are some guidelines to follow:

a)      Draw a straight line with a pencil and ruler from the part that you want to label.

b)      Label lines must touch the part of the drawing being labeled.

c)      The line must be parallel to the bottom of your page.

d)      Write the names for each part neatly underneath each other.

 

   3. Label the drawing of the flowering plant using these rules.

   4. Write the labels on the left in the space provided.

   5. Use the following labels:

       •    root

       •    stem

       •    leaf

       •    flower

       •    seed

Evaluation and implementation of QR Code Identity Tag system for Healthcare in Turkey

ABSTRACT 

 

For this study, we designed a QR Code Identity Tag system to integrate into the Turkish healthcare system. 

This system provides QR code-based medical identification alerts and an in-hospital patient identification system. 

Every member of the medical system is assigned a unique QR Code Tag; to facilitate medical identification alerts, the QR Code Identity Tag can be worn as a bracelet or necklace or carried as an ID card. 

Patients must always possess the QR Code Identity bracelets within hospital grounds.

These QR code bracelets link to the QR Code Identity website, where detailed information is stored; a smartphone or standalone QR code scanner can be used to scan the code.

The design of this system allows authorized personnel (e.g., paramedics, firefighters, or police) to access more detailed patient information than the average smartphone user: emergency service professionals are authorized to access patient medical histories to improve the accuracy of medical treatment. 

In Istanbul, we tested the self-designed system with 174 participants. 

To analyze the QR Code Identity Tag system’s usability, the participants completed the System Usability Scale questionnaire after using the system.

Watch with optical sensor for user input

What is claimed is:

1. A watch comprising: 

  a housing defining a first side, a second side opposite the first side, and a third side joining the first side and the second side; 

  a display on the first side of the housing; 

  a touch sensor for receiving a touch input at the display; and 

  an input component comprising: 

      a light source within the housing; 

      an optical sensor within the housing; and 

      a window on the third side of the housing and configured to transmit light from the light source and to the optical sensor; 

  wherein the watch is configured to detect a user input with the input component, the user input comprising sliding by the user from a first position against the window to a second position against the window, and execute an action corresponding to the user input.

Roots

 

Plant roots are normally found underground. 

Roots have very important functions  (jobs):

・ roots anchor the plant in the ground

roots absorb water and nutrients from the soil, which are then  transported to the rest of the plant

・ some plants store the food they make in their roots, like potatoes or carrots.

✓undergroundは副詞

✓whichはこの使い方が多い

✓someの使い方はこれがお手本

 

✓日本語 「根には重要な機能がある」が

英語 "Roots have  important functions." となる転換がポイント。

The roots of this tree go deep down  into the soil.

 

A carrot is a stem that stores food  made by the plant.
