Students are now compared to other students by standardized test which rate your knowledge on what you remember and not what you know or can do. This educational system is not good enough for everyone to benefit in the society. The main aim or goal of educational institutions should be to developing skills by which to use to make information and not just to memories the data others have made

Igneous rock is a Latin word meaning fire; these rocks are formed from volcanic activity. This rock is one of three types of rock including sedimentary and metamorphic rock. Igneous rock is formed from the cooling and solidification of lava or magma. Igneous rock can be formed with our without crystallization‚ below the surface as intrusive rocks or on the surface as extrusive rocks. Volcanic rocks also known as extrusive igneous rocks include all the products resulting from volcanic eruptions of

About the Igneous rocks: The Igneous rocks are the oldest type of rocks among all. The word "Igneous" comes from a Greek word which means fire. In the deepest part of the Earth‚ the minerals are found in a liquid form‚ which is known as magma. When the magma pushes towards the surface of the Earth‚ it starts to get cool and converts into the solid Igneous rocks. The formation of Igneous Rocks: The Igneous rocks are known as the fire rocks and these are generally formed underground or above the

India The concept of zero as a number and not merely a symbol for separation is attributed to India‚ where‚ by the 9th century AD‚ practical calculations were carried out using zero‚ which was treated like any other number‚ even in case of division.[9][10] The Indian scholar Pingala (circa 5th-2nd century BC) used binary numbers in the form of short and

Igneous Rock SCI245 July 20‚ 2011 CheckPoint: Igneous Rocks The answer to how igneous rocks are formed is given in their name; Igneous is Latin for “fire”. This basically means igneous rocks are cooled fire rocks from magma or lava‚ depending on where they cooled and formed. There are two categories of igneous rocks that also depend on where each was formed. Intrusive igneous rocks are igneous rocks that form when magma cools slowly and becomes solid underground. Extrusive igneous rocks are igneous

Amethyst Research Paper I went to the local flea market today and found a rock for sale. I decided to purchase the rock and bring it home to do a little research on it. After surfing the internet I discovered my find to be a mineral rock named‚ “amethyst.” I was interested in finding out where and how this mineral was formed. The more I searched‚ the more I encountered fascinating information. This is a small summary of what I learned. The physical characteristics of amethyst consist of

Sedimentary Rocks Define 2 types of weathering? • Mechanical: breaking rocks into smaller chunks o Sediment: clasts (particles or sediment) • Chemical: dissolve mierals or change rock chemistry and make new minerals o Sediment: Ions in solution Which type would result in a conglomerate? • Mechanical.

from quiet eruptions of fluid lava followed by explosive eruptions of viscous lava. How is Magma turned into Lava? Extremely high temperature and pressure cause the rock to melt and become liquid rock or magma. When a large body of magma has formed‚ it rises through the denser rock layers toward Earth’s surface. Magma that has reached the surface is called lava. How are volcanoes formed? Volcanoes are formed when magma seeps through cracks in the earth’s crust‚ and slowly builds up into a cone
