Lesson Title: Understanding Abstract Concepts in Art

Introduction:
Art is a form of expression that allows artists to convey their thoughts, emotions, and ideas through various mediums such as painting, sculpture, photography, and film. However, some artworks can be challenging to understand because they deal with abstract concepts that are not easily defined or explained. In this lesson, we will explore how to understand abstract concepts in art by analyzing different elements and techniques used by artists to create meaning.

Section 1: Defining Abstract Concepts in Art

Abstract concepts refer to ideas or thoughts that are not tangible or concrete. They are often intangible and subjective, making them difficult to define or explain. In art, abstract concepts can be expressed through various mediums such as color, texture, shape, and form.

Question: What are some examples of abstract concepts in art?
Answer: Some examples of abstract concepts in art include beauty, love, freedom, and identity.

Section 2: Analyzing Elements and Techniques in Abstract Art

To understand abstract concepts in art, we need to analyze the elements and techniques used by artists to create meaning. Some of these elements and techniques include:

1. Color: Artists use color to create mood, emotion, and atmosphere. For example, warm colors such as red, orange, and yellow can evoke feelings of happiness and excitement, while cool colors such as blue, green, and purple can create a sense of calmness and serenity.

2. Texture: Texture refers to the surface quality of an artwork. Artists use different textures to create different effects. For example, smooth textures can create a sense of tranquility, while rough textures can evoke feelings of tension and anxiety.

3. Shape: Shape refers to the outline or contour of an object. Artists use different shapes to create visual interest and convey meaning. For example, geometric shapes such as circles, squares, and triangles can represent order and stability, while organic shapes such as leaves and flowers can symbolize growth and renewal.

4. Form: Form refers to the three-dimensional aspect of an artwork. Artists use different forms to create depth and movement. For example, a sculpture that protrudes from the wall can create a sense of depth, while a painting that uses perspective can create the illusion of movement.

Question: How do artists use these elements and techniques to convey abstract concepts?
Answer: Artists use these elements and techniques to create visual metaphors that convey abstract concepts. For example, a painting that uses warm colors and has a rough texture can represent the idea of struggle and hardship.

Section 3: Applying Abstract Concepts in Art

Understanding abstract concepts in art can help us appreciate and analyze artworks more deeply. By analyzing different elements and techniques used by artists, we can gain insights into the meanings and messages behind their work.

Exercise: Choose an abstract artwork and analyze the elements and techniques used by the artist to convey abstract concepts. Use your analysis to write a brief explanation of the artwork's meaning.

Conclusion:
Understanding abstract concepts in art requires us to analyze different elements and techniques used by artists to create meaning. By doing so, we can gain insights into the meanings and messages behind their work, allowing us to appreciate and analyze artworks more deeply.

Glossary:
- Abstract: Referring to ideas or thoughts that are not tangible or concrete
- Elements: The basic components of an artwork, such as color, texture, shape, and form
- Techniques: The methods or processes used by artists to create an artwork, such as painting, sculpture, photography, or film

[Note: This lesson is intended for primary through high school students. It can be modified for different levels by adjusting the complexity of the examples and exercises.]


text: It was only fifty some years ago that medical school curriculum included entire courses on parasitology, but I only had a lecture or two with any significant emphasis on these crazy bugs. I can’t begin to say how thankful I am that a) I don’t have to learn this stuff and b) I don’t have to worry about getting these hell-bugs., so believe it’s where we get the snakes-around-a-staff symbol for medicine.

Lesson: Parasitology 101

## Section 1: Introduction to Parasitology
Parasitology is the study of parasites, which are organisms that live on or inside a host organism and derive nutrients at the host's expense. These organisms can cause diseases and discomfort to the host. In this lesson, we will learn about the basics of parasitology, including the classification of parasites, their life cycles, and the diseases they cause.

## Section 2: Classification of Parasites
Parasites can be classified into several groups based on their structure, mode of reproduction, and host specificity. The major groups of parasites include:

1. Protozoa: These are single-celled organisms that can move independently. Examples include Plasmodium (which causes malaria) and Giardia (which causes diarrhea).

2. Helminths: These are multicellular worms that can be found in the soil, water, or inside the host. Examples include roundworms, tapeworms, and flukes.

3. Arthropods: These are insects and arachnids that can transmit parasitic diseases through their bites or by contaminating food and water. Examples include mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas.

4. Ectoparasites: These are organisms that live on the surface of the host, such as lice and mites.

5. Endoparasites: These are organisms that live inside the host, such as tapeworms and flukes.

## Section 3: Life Cycles of Parasites
Parasites have different life cycles depending on their type and species. Some parasites have a direct life cycle, where they can reproduce both inside and outside the host. Others have an indirect life cycle, where they require a intermediate host to complete their development before infecting the final host.

For example, the malaria parasite (Plasmodium) has a complex life cycle involving two hosts: the Anopheles mosquito and the human host. The mosquito transmits the parasite to the human host through its bite. Inside the human host, the parasite multiplies and infects red blood cells, causing symptoms such as fever, chills, and fatigue.

## Section 4: Diseases Caused by Parasites
Parasites can cause a wide range of diseases, from mild to severe. Some common parasitic diseases include:

1. Malaria: Caused by Plasmodium parasites transmitted by mosquitoes, malaria can lead to fever, chills, and anemia.

2. Giardiasis: Caused by the protozoan parasite Giardia, this disease causes diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and gas.

3. Schistosomiasis: Caused by parasitic flatworms called schistosomes, this disease can cause abdominal pain, bloody diarrhea, and liver damage.

4. Chagas disease: Caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, this disease can lead to heart and digestive system problems.

## Section 5: Conclusion
In conclusion, parasitology is the study of parasites and their effects on their hosts. By understanding the classification of parasites, their life cycles, and the diseases they cause, we can better understand how to prevent and treat these diseases. This knowledge can also help us appreciate the importance of hygiene, sanitation, and public health measures in reducing the spread of parasitic infections.

There aren’t enough column inches to accommodate all the adoring words I have for comediennes (and BFFs) Ilana Glazer and Phoebe Robinson. Glazer is the cocreator and costar of my favorite TV comedy, Broad City, and Robinson hosts two of my most-listened WNYC podcasts: 2 Dope Queens and Sooo Many White Guys. Like their separate projects, the 11-city “YQY” (“Yaaas Queen Yaaas”) tour is built around their longtime friendship and signature acronym. On the tour’s youthfully styled flyer, the two hold hands, demonstrating their now-flourishing careers have become intertwined by constant mutual support. Robinson had a cameo on the very first episode of Broad City and was a consultant for the show; Glazer is the executive producer of Sooo Many White Guys.

Seattle is the tour’s finale, and by now we know the format: The two dance onto the stage, warm up the crowd, and then flip a coin to decide who performs first. While they had no trouble selling out the Moore, both comics are less known for their stand-up than their successes as comedy writers, actors, and influencers.

After Glazer and Abbi Jacobson’s sketch comedy web series Broad City got picked up by Comedy Central and renewed for five seasons, Glazer got her start in film with the Hangover-esque Rough Night. Broad City fans are no doubt well acquainted with Glazer’s hilarious portrayal of sexually liberated stoner/fierce intersectional feminist Ilana Wexler, but perhaps not as many are aware of Phoebe “I like to speak in abbrevs” Robinson, who’s written a book (You Can’t Touch My Hair: And Other Things I Still Have to Explain), and teamed up with her friend Jessica Williams (The Daily Show, The Incredible Jessica James) for the geeky, stand-up focused podcast 2 Dope Queens.

It’s good, but I’m partial to Robinson’s interview-based Sooo Many White Guys and its deep, all too brief discussions with industry leaders who are women, people of color, minorities, LGBTQ—basically anyone who isn’t a cisgender, heterosexual white dude. (Once per season, Phoebe fills the male Caucasoid void with token white guys like Tom Hanks and Mike Birbiglia, who serve as a representative for all white guys everywhere.) Robinson proves herself to be a thoughtful, pleasant, and funny interviewer, who’s booked the likes of Issa Rae, Hasan Minhaj, Janet Mock, Roxane Gay, Bassem Youssef, and Nia Long.

As a Black (mixed) woman living in one of the whitest metropolises in the country, I enjoy that Robinson has mastered the art of dismantling the patriarchy and embracing diversity through her work, while also unabashedly celebrating all the white culture she loves. In a YouTube video from 2015, she delivers a stand-up routine with the help of PowerPoint, walking the audience through all her favorite “white people shit.” She quickly geeks out over various topics like Sex and the City, U2, Starbucks, Keeping Up with the Kardashians, and speaking in abbreviations (aka abbrevs).

As executive producer of White Guys, Glazer regularly appears on the show as a commitment to a recurring Broad City bit about her white guilt; Glazer pops up via phone to give Robinson a heartfelt apology on behalf of white people for things like plantation weddings or not gathering Gwen Stefani when she appropriated Asian culture.

I’m hoping Glazer and Robinson’s onstage act is as hilarious, refreshing, and adorable as their podcast interactions. They share a knack for nuanced conversations about feminism, sex, and pop culture; their innate humor and real-life friendship should make their shared tour a blast.

Expect the comics to discuss everything from their sex lives and respective relationships (Robinson has been dating someone for a few months; Glazer is married) to gentrification and personal grooming habits. From the sound of it, the show will be in the same spirit as Broad City’s choice to bleep out 45’s name: It should give audiences a break from hearing about the terrifying and exhausting state of the nation, and create laughter through female support systems. All together now: Yaaas Queen Yaaas!

Lesson: Dispute Resolution
## Section 1: Introduction
In this lesson, we will learn about dispute resolution and how it can help us resolve conflicts. We will cover the different methods of dispute resolution and the benefits of each. By the end of this lesson, you will be able to understand the process of dispute resolution and apply it to real-life scenarios.
## Section 2: Methods of Dispute Resolution
There are several methods of dispute resolution that can be used to resolve conflicts. These methods include:
1. Negotiation: This is a process where both parties involved in the conflict come together to discuss their differences and try to reach a mutually acceptable solution.
2. Mediation: This is a process where a neutral third party helps the parties involved in the conflict to reach a mutually acceptable solution.
3. Arbitration: This is a process where a neutral third party listens to both sides of the conflict and makes a decision that is binding on both parties.
4. Litigation: This is a process where one party sues another party in court to resolve the conflict.
Each method of dispute resolution has its own advantages and disadvantages. For example, negotiation is a non-binding process that allows both parties to maintain control over the outcome, while litigation is a binding process that can be expensive and time-consuming.
## Section 3: Benefits of Dispute Resolution
There are several benefits to using dispute resolution to resolve conflicts. These benefits include:
1. Cost-effective: Dispute resolution is often less expensive than litigation, which can be a lengthy and expensive process.
2. Confidential: Dispute resolution processes are often confidential, which means that the details of the conflict do not become public record.
3. Control: Dispute resolution allows both parties to maintain control over the outcome of the conflict, rather than leaving it up to a judge or jury.
4. Preservation of relationships: Dispute resolution can help preserve relationships between parties, which is especially important in business or family conflicts.
## Section 4: Conclusion
Dispute resolution is an important tool for resolving conflicts. By understanding the different methods of dispute resolution and their benefits, you can apply this knowledge to real-life scenarios and find the best solution for your specific conflict. Remember that the key to successful dispute resolution is open communication and a willingness to work towards a mutually acceptable solution.

Lesson: Historical Imagination: Life During the Civil War

**Introduction**

Welcome to the first lesson on historical imagination! In this series, we will learn how to use our imaginations to recreate scenes from history. Today, we will focus on life during the Civil War in America.

**Section 1: Understanding the Context**

The Civil War was a significant event in American history that took place between 1861 and 1865. It was a conflict between the Northern states (Union) and the Southern states (Confederacy) over issues such as slavery, states' rights, and economic disputes. The war resulted in over 600,000 casualties and changed the course of American history.

**Section 2: Creating the Scene**

Using your historical imagination, picture a small town in the South during the Civil War. The town is surrounded by farmland, and you can see soldiers marching in the distance. The streets are empty, as most people are at home or hiding from the fighting. There are no cars or modern buildings, only horse-drawn carriages and wooden houses.

In the center of town, there is a marketplace where people sell their goods. You can see women selling food, and men talking about the latest news from the battlefield. There is a sense of urgency and fear in the air, as everyone knows that the war could come to their town at any moment.

**Section 3: Selecting Props**

To help tell the story of life during the Civil War, let's add some props to our scene. First, we can add a flagpole with a Confederate flag flying high. This would represent the pride that many Southerners had in their cause. We can also add a newspaper stand, where people gather to read the latest news from the front lines.

Next, let's add a church steeple in the background. Religion was an important part of life during the Civil War, and many people turned to God for comfort and guidance during these difficult times. Finally, let's add a doctor's office, where wounded soldiers are being treated. Medicine during this time was rudimentary, and many soldiers died from their injuries.

**Section 4: Writing Explanation Notes**

Now that we have created our scene, let's take some detailed notes on what we see. In the marketplace, we can see women selling food such as corn bread and pickled vegetables. The men are talking about the latest news from the battlefield, which is causing much anxiety among them.

At the flagpole, we can see people waving Confederate flags and cheering for their cause. The newspaper stand is filled with stories of battles and casualties, which are causing great sadness among the people. The church steeple represents a place of refuge for those seeking solace during these difficult times.

Finally, in the doctor's office, we can see wounded soldiers being treated for injuries such as gunshot wounds and amputations. The doctors are doing their best with limited resources, but many soldiers still die from their injuries.

**Glossary**
- Confederacy: A group of eleven southern states that seceded from the United States in 1861, starting the American Civil War.
- Union: The northern states that remained loyal to the United States during the Civil War.
- Battlefield: A place where a battle occurs or has occurred.
- Casualty: A person who is killed or injured in a war or battle.

**Conclusion**

By using our historical imagination, we were able to recreate a scene from life during the Civil War. Through careful selection of props and detailed notes, we were able to tell the story of a small town in the South during this tumultuous time in American history. By applying the skills we have learned in this lesson, we can use our imaginations to create other scenes from history and gain a deeper understanding of the past.

text: HONDA has introduced three new outboard engine models, the BF150, BF135, and BF115, which now offer electronic remote shift and throttle controls. Use of electronic shift and throttle (EST) controls is becoming more common, particularly among high-horsepower engines. Honda's use in their 115 to 150-HP models brings EST controls to the lower-end of their “big" engine range.. Having been enjoying electronic shift and throttle remote controls on my own boat for many years, I think boaters will soon come to think of them as standard equipment on new outboard engines.. I don't see any specific model designator change to mark or distinguish these new models from prior BF115, BF135, and BF150 engines. Perhaps there will be more information coming and details of the specific model identifiers. The product was just shown at a European boat show..

Lesson: Understanding Electronic Shift and Throttle (EST) Controls in Outboard Engines

Introduction:
Electronic shift and throttle (EST) controls are becoming more common in outboard engines, particularly in high-horsepower models. Honda has recently introduced three new outboard engine models, the BF150, BF135, and BF115, which now offer EST controls. This lesson will teach you about EST controls, their benefits, and how they work.

Section 1: What are Electronic Shift and Throttle (EST) Controls?
EST controls are electronic systems that allow you to control the shift and throttle of your outboard engine using a remote control. These systems replace the traditional mechanical linkages and cables, making them more reliable and easier to use.

Benefits of EST Controls:
1. Improved Safety: EST controls reduce the risk of injury or accident while operating the engine.
2. Convenience: EST controls allow you to control the engine from a distance, making it easier to maneuver your boat.
3. Increased Efficiency: EST controls provide smoother shifting and better fuel efficiency.
4. Enhanced Performance: EST controls enable quick and smooth shifting, improving the overall performance of the engine.

Section 2: How do EST Controls Work?
EST controls use electronic sensors to detect the engine's speed and load. This information is then transmitted to the remote control, allowing you to shift gears and adjust the throttle from a distance. The engine's computer interprets the signals from the remote control and adjusts the engine's settings accordingly.

Section 3: Practical Examples and Real-World Scenarios
Let's say you're driving your boat at a constant speed, and you need to slow down to navigate around an obstacle. With EST controls, you can easily adjust the throttle without taking your hands off the steering wheel. Similarly, if you're fishing and need to adjust the trolling speed, EST controls make it easy to do so without disturbing your line.

Glossary:
- Outboard Engine: A motor vehicle powered by an internal combustion engine and designed to be mounted on a boat.
- Horsepower: A unit of power equal to 746 watts or 0.75 kilowatts.
- Linkage: A mechanism that connects two parts of a machine, such as the engine and the transmission in an outboard engine.

Conclusion:
EST controls are becoming more common in outboard engines, particularly in high-horsepower models. By understanding how EST controls work and their benefits, you can appreciate the importance of this technology in improving safety, convenience, efficiency, and performance. As you continue to learn about outboard engines, you'll find that EST controls are just one example of how technology is advancing the industry.

In pop culture, conspiracy believers — like FBI agent Fox Mulder on The X Files or professor Robert Langdon in The Da Vinci Code — tend to reject the notion of coincidence or chance; even the most random-seeming events are thought to result from some sort of intention or design. And researchers have suggested that such a bias against randomness may explain real-world conspiracy beliefs. But new research from psychological scientists at the University of Fribourg and the University of Paris-Saint-Denis shows no evidence for a link between conspiracist thinking and perceptions of order, design, or intent.

The findings are published in Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science.

“We could not confirm our initial hypothesis that the tendency to reject randomness, or to perceive order and meaning where there is only noise, was associated with the endorsement of conspiracy theories,” explains lead researcher Sebastian Dieguez.

“Although negative findings are usually unpopular in scientific journals, we think our results are valuable because they contradict a widely held and quite plausible idea of what leads to conspiracist thinking. By ruling out a very straightforward and cognitively simple mechanism, we narrow down the range of explanations for the popularity of conspiracy theories.”

To investigate the relationship between conspiracist beliefs and perceptions of randomness, the researchers designed three separate experiments in which participants were asked to look at strings of 12 Xs and Os that supposedly represented a series of outcomes.

In the first experiment, 107 university student participants were told that some of the strings were created using a fair coin and were, therefore, random; they were also told that other strings represented non-random outcomes, such as computer calculations or a sports team’s wins and losses. The participants were presented with a series of 40 such strings — for each one, they were asked to rate the randomness of the string on a scale of 1 (certainly random) to 6 (certainly not random).

In a purportedly unrelated “translation” task, participants completed measures that gauged their general belief in conspiracy theories, their belief in specific conspiracy theories (e.g., that the Apollo 11 moon landing was faked), and their perceptions of conspiracy in certain scenarios.

The results showed that participants’ responses on the conspiracy theory measures were correlated — in other words, participants who reported a strong belief in general conspiracy theories also tended to report other types of conspiracist beliefs.

But, the researchers did not find any evidence to suggest that people who tended to believe conspiracy theories were more likely to see intention or design in the letter strings.

A follow-up study with 123 university students and an online study with 217 adults showed the same pattern of findings — while participants’ conspiracist beliefs in one area were associated with conspiracist beliefs in another area, there was no evidence to suggest that believers were biased toward seeing intention in the letter strings.

And all three studies indicated that participants were sensitive to the complexity of the strings — for example, they tended to rate the string XXXXXXXXXOOX as less random than the string XOOXOXOOOOXX. These results align with the probability that a randomly chosen algorithm would produce the strings, suggesting that the participants were attuned, in some way, to the likely randomness of the strings.

“Conspiracy theories are now widespread and they develop increasingly faster, sometimes minutes after a dramatic event,” says Dieguez. “Research has shown that they affect health decisions, political and voting behavior, reliance on science, and underlie many extremist and violent actions. Our research contributes to understanding the psychological and social mechanisms that do — or, in this case, do not — facilitate their endorsement and spreading.”

Co-authors on the research include Pascal Wagner-Egger of the University of Fribourg and Nicolas Gauvrit of the University of Paris-Saint-Denis.

Lesson: Introduction to Conspiracy Theories

### Overview

In this lesson, we will learn about conspiracy theories and their role in society. We will explore the psychology behind why people believe in conspiracy theories and examine the evidence that supports or refutes these theories. By the end of this lesson, you will be able to identify common characteristics of conspiracy theories, evaluate their credibility, and apply critical thinking skills to analyze them.

### Section 1: What are Conspiracy Theories?

A conspiracy theory is a belief that a group of people or organizations are working together to hide or manipulate information about an event or situation. These theories often involve secret plans or actions meant to control or harm others. Conspiracy theories can be found in many areas of life, including politics, history, science, and entertainment.

### Section 2: Why do People Believe in Conspiracy Theories?

There are several reasons why people believe in conspiracy theories. One reason is that they provide a sense of order and meaning in a world that can seem chaotic and unpredictable. People who believe in conspiracy theories feel like they have control over their lives by understanding how the world works.

Another reason is that conspiracy theories can be appealing because they challenge the status quo and question authority. People who feel marginalized or powerless may find comfort in believing that powerful forces are working against them.

Finally, some people believe in conspiracy theories because they want to explain away events or situations that they find difficult to accept. For example, if someone loses a loved one in a tragic event, they may seek out a conspiracy theory that blames the government or other powerful entities for the tragedy.

### Section 3: Evaluating the Credibility of Conspiracy Theories

Not all conspiracy theories are created equal. Some are based on solid evidence and logical reasoning, while others are based on speculation and rumor. To evaluate the credibility of a conspiracy theory, ask yourself the following questions:

- Is there evidence to support the theory?
- Are the claims being made by credible sources?
- Does the theory fit with known facts and established scientific principles?
- Are there alternative explanations that are more plausible than the conspiracy theory?

Remember that just because a theory is popular or widely believed, that does not mean it is true. It is essential to use critical thinking skills to evaluate the evidence and determine whether a theory is credible.

### Section 4: Applying Critical Thinking Skills

Critical thinking is the process of evaluating information and arguments to determine their validity. When analyzing conspiracy theories, use the following critical thinking skills:

- Identify the claims being made in the theory.
- Determine the evidence that supports or refutes those claims.
- Analyze the reasoning used to connect the evidence to the claims.
- Consider alternative explanations and evaluate their credibility.
- Determine whether the theory fits with known facts and established scientific principles.

By applying critical thinking skills, you can evaluate the credibility of conspiracy theories and make informed decisions about what to believe.
