After researching, I found two studies that are similar to my experiment. One study by Sean Boyd (2007) tested to see which brand of microwave popcorn yielded the least amount of un-popped kernels. Mr. Boyd tested five brands of butter flavored microwave popcorn: Aldi, Act II, Orville Redenbacher, Jolley Time and Pop-Secret. His experiment proved his hypothesis partially wrong. Mr. Boyd hypothesized that Orville Redenbacher would be the best and Aldi's would be the worst. His experiment proved that Act II produced the least amount of un-popped kernels while Aldi's did have the most un-popped kernels on average.…
According to a study on which brands of popcorn yields the most popcorn by Sean Boyd (2010) “The Jolly Time popcorn had the lowest amount of un-popped kernels”. But another researcher Ben Popken (2008) Which popcorn pops the most, said, “ACTII was the winner.” Since there are many experiments with different results of the most popped kernels we will chose just one name brand at the local store and keep the brand name constant for this experiment. The name brand of popcorn is not the independent variable so we will use a random store bought popcorn for this experiment. Both of these experiments are similar to each other. They are testing the hypothesis on which brand name produces the least amount of un-popped kernels. In this current…
INT1 Task 1 Jamie Hildebrand Hurricane Satellite Image, NOAA, n.d., retrieved from: http://www.noaa.gov/features/02_monitoring/inland_flooding.html Weather Forecasts From folklore and proverbs to modern radar technology, the scientific understanding of weather prediction has evolved through time. Several inventions such as the thermometer, barometer and even satellites have given way to immense knowledge of weather conditions. Mild, sunny days are perfect for picnics, but those aren’t the weather conditions that led to the advances in weather predictions. “Severe weather events such as tornadoes, tropical storms, hurricanes, floods, lightning strikes and extremes of heat or cold can be costly and deadly.…

The Myers-Briggs personality type test is one of most used and respected psychological assessments. It contains 16 different personality types and is suppose to represent all the different types of personalities in the world. It is not uncommon for businesses, government jobs and other institutions to incorporate the test to see whether an individual would fit into the culture and atmosphere of the company. According to the test, I am a ESTJ (Extravert(31%), Sensing(1%), Thinking(28%), Judging(28%)), which matched some famous people such as John D. Rockefeller. I was surprised by how accurate the description of the suggested personality style matched my own.…
Our Solar System INT1 TASK 1 The Evolution of our Solar System • Observations of the stars, sun, and planets appearing to revolve around the Earth, which seem to be at motionless, lead ancient astronomers to believe the Earth was the center of the solar system. • Claudis Ptolemy’s version of the Geocentric Model was the most widely accepted and recognized example of the Geocentric Model. • Nicolaus Copernicus published a book on his theory of a heliocentric system, the book, De revolutionibus orbium coelstium, puts the Sun at the center of the Solar System with planets revolving around it. It also pointed out that the Earth was in motion and that motion could explain the Retrograde motion of the planets.…

Prior to taking the Jung Typology test someone might not understand how they view the world around them or what their driving force is. A failure to understand one’s temperament could result in being employed in a job that is not seen as satisfying or generally a miscommunication with employees and employers. Personally, I would implore anyone who stumbles upon this paper to take a few minutes out of their day and take the Jung Typology Test not only does this quiz help find one’s passion but actually mirrors most people’s strengths accurately. Upon reading this paper the reader will not only have a greater understanding of my personality but jobs that most people who perceive the world the way I do would excel in as well. Four temperaments…
that code then determines what your personality trait is. My code was ENTP, i found out that i was a visionary type. According to the results, it says: “your primary mode of living is focused externally, where you take things in primarily via your intuition. Your secondary mode is internal, where you deal with things rationally and logically.”(Myers Briggs) I am a logical person, i stay thinking about the realistic side of the problem. I agree with these results.…

Very rarely so we take stock in our own well-being in the workplace and even less time is spent on determining if our personalities fit within the expected model of behavior that is expected at the organization for which we are part of. Occasionally it is good to sit back and look at oneself and determine what your personality traits are and if they coincide with your goals. According to Wan Ismail and Awadh (2011), personality can be a determining factor in one’s job performance. Further research has shown that personality differentiates one person from another (Beer & Brooks, 2011) and that personality traits remain steady and stable through ones work life (Myers, 1998). Being able to understand your own personality traits is important to unlocking your own job satisfaction needs and leadership and management abilities.…

In the Myers-Briggs Type indicator/Jung’s Typology Test results I scored ENFJ, which stands for extrovert, intuitive, feeler, and judger. These results seem extremely accurate to me. I do enjoy spending time with people, talking to them, and trying my best to understand them. People fascinate me yet I find it difficult to open up to the people around me, which is a common characteristic among ENFJ’s. Being intuitive, I tend to look at the big picture rather than detail. I rely on my gut rather than my conscious. As a feeler, the decisions I make tie in with the values I grew up learning, leading with my heart and naturally gravitate towards people. Lastly, as a judger, I am super organized! Having a preference towards planned and settled activities.…
