Pls I'm having issues viewing the assessment from the 'qualified' URL that I'm to answer. Is it impossible to solve the assessment via a smartphone?
What browser are you using? Try chrome.
I have access to both a pc and a tablet.
While I've never tried doing the assessments on the tablet, the page displays correctly.
I use both firefox and chrome.
Maybe try viewing the page in desktop mode.

Thanks for the inputs, guys.
You don't need internet.
It does take a while to load. 10 secs, at most.

RomanceRe: Sudden Increase Of Single Ladies Above 28: Ways Of Salvaging The Situation by Wryhder: 12:38am On Jun 22, 2017
Tearless:
Stop making it seem as though Marriage is a MUST, or that single ladies are unhappy, or that it's all single ladies that WANT to get married. Being single is NOT a problem, so you people need to stop suggesting "solutions" for that and focus on more important things, directing your energy towards more productive ends. I don't see Nuns/Reverend sisters complaining of depression, or divorced single ladies falling dead. You need to snap out of the delusion and false notion that ladies who claim not to need men to make them happy have holes in their hearts. Marriage itself does NOT guarantee happiness, and you need to stop pressuring the single ladies to get married as if being single is some sort of disease. Humans are teleological animals that inhabit a wondrous world of INFINITE potentialities into which they can tap from whichever angle. There's nothing cast in stone, no one way to achieve something. Marriage is not all there is to life. There are other ways of achieving happiness - a lot of them.

Einstein was so in love with Physics that he couldn't invest his sublime passions into any other true love. That was what gave him the kick. That was for him, the bluest meth. Physics was HIS TRUE LOVE that gave him fulfillment, not a person. It was the same for Nietzsche, and a host of other people you can think of.

You're therefore completely WRONG to have asserted, with such impudence, that ladies who claim they do not need men to be fulfilled are internally scarred. You overhype marriage and worship it like a God. Like that lady, IamKashyBaby rightfully said, MARRIAGE IS NOT FOR EVERYONE.
I couldn't have said it better. It is just so narrow-minded, the perception some folks have of marriage.

The Sense is strong with you.

IdeyFindWife:
Took time to read through the story and realised young people are getting so crazily bold in the wrong way these days; a reflection of serious problems in the society?

When life was even more analog, monochromatic and more arduous; people thrived on necessity being the mother of creativity making ways where obstacles existed. What if Mandela threw himself off the rocks? Or Abraham Lincoln, Winston Churchill? Or do we think our own Azikwes, Awolowos etc didn't face their fair share of life's challenges?

Sometimes, we need to call spades by their names and face up to the fact that a lot of suicides are perpetrated by people who simply blew up their personal issues out of proportion. Challenges are part of the human condition and we will all get our fair share of problems.

Adversity breaks some men, yet the same Adversity makes some other men rise to Break Records!

I'd wanna ask who was her bf, who were her friends, was she her own person or who were her major decision influencers, what was her home life like, did she have any emotional troubles, was she the brooding type, how did she process past disappointments, what were her expectations from/of life (how did she process them) etc.

It's not enuf to waste RIP's when some other teenager is planning to snuff himself next week; issue's how to get proactive and mitigate or cease the causative factors altogether!
You make sense. It's not the problem itself, just the person's perception of the problem. Makes for a different and overblown version of the original thing.
Easier said than done but this is why it isn't a good idea to dwell on or overthink issues.

Without bragging, I will say that I have read over 5000 novels since Jss1. It can even be more. I read at least a book a week. Sometimes as much as 3 books. I stay up nights to read novels. I read in the toilet and I read when eating. Terrible habit..lol but I am officially addicted to books.
I don't read love/romance books..
My latest book crush is Clive cussler but alas I have read all his books..
I have given so many books away,I remember I once had an agreement with a book seller to exchange 3 books for 1 new one. I went with 60 books and came back with 12 books...lol.
I don't read books online, I prefer hardback.
Anyone interested in having a couple of books can DM me. I will be in Lagos 1st or 2 nd week. Lagos residents only. Accra residents too. Anyone interested in getting free books, pls pm me.
I have made random friends cos I see them reading books.I can get down from a car/bus before my bus stop cos I saw a book stand.
Growing up ,mum used to beat me for reading novels too much!!! Lol.. I was always curled up reading. My bro was also addicted. I remember mum banging on the toilet door and screaming for whoever was in there to bring out that book..lol
I even took novels to church on Sunday and pretended I was reading the bible.
My first boyfriend bought me a mag and s novel..lol
I always create time to read a book.
I always buy my books.
Is there any ADDICTED bookie out there?
If there was truly such a thing as the multiverse, we'd be two versions of the same person.

CelebritiesRe: "I Have Never Wanted To Be Married" - Funmi Iyanda Says. Nigerians React by Wryhder: 1:03pm On Jan 19, 2017
Ask4Info:
NOW LET ME EDUCATE YOU ALL THAT WANT TO INSULT HER AND ALSO REALITY ABOUT MARRIAGE.

* Marriage isn't for everyone. Yes! you read right. Not everyone is meant to marry. So many people want to be FREE, So many people have low level of tolerance, so many people are damn scared and impatient to be tied down by a partner or child. Not everyone want to be responsible for someone else. So many people prefer to be as FREE as birds in the sky.

* Not everyone who desires marriage will have the opportunity to get married. Don't get confused i will explain what i mean. There are approximately 7.4billion people now on Earth. In the real sense of people between age 1- age 40, we now have a ratio of 7 women to 1 man. Meaning for every single guy of that age range there are 7 women to a guy. Now aside Islam that ssupports polygamy, the almost other 4,300 religions on Earth are against it. Also polygamy is going extinct from most Africa traditions. The question now is, if a man marries one lady, who will marry the remaining 6?


* The Economy today all over the world Favours the females. As an HR Consultant, for every guy that gets a job, we allocate same job to 3 or more females (onces the job of work is not gender sensitive). You all know why? Quote me if you want to know the reason and i will tell you. Look at all the Telecoms company, Banks, Insurance, and other top companies you will see females dorminate them. Men only handle technical and heavy duty workload. Now when a woman gets and retains a job over 5years or more, and a guy can barely have or even retain a job for 2years, who financially now becomes more ready for marriage?




The society has painted a wrong notion into the minds of many that once you aren't married either being a man or a woman you are a failure. Whereas most married couples today are more miserable than single folks and regret every day they made that decision to get married.
A very reasonable comment.

For some ladies, the peak of their ambition is marriage.

A pity really. There's nothing wrong with being married, but when it becomes a do-or-die thing and you think you have to do it because everyone else is, because you think you're supposed to, not because you want to, it makes one really sad for them.
WebmastersRe: I Want To Revive My Blog. (how can I Reignite My Passion For Blogging) by Wryhder: 3:22pm On Jan 01, 2017
Remember that your blog is just a platform to showcase your writing and knowledge.

Just write. It doesn't have to end up on your blog. Visit forums like this one (Quora is another I like, but there are others still) and answer questions related to what you write about.

Helping others understand and solve their problems this way will build in you the confidence you need (and rekindle your passion).

You don't have to feel good enough. Research what you want/need to know.
Keep learning. You'll never know it all, but you can learn enough to be confident in yourself.
Enough to realise how much you don't know.

EducationRe: How Do I Help My Pupils To Be Good In Mathematics? by Wryhder:
salabscholar01:
Mathematics is the simplest of the subjects! The logic is this: Mathematics can never be taught telegraphically! You must learn to transfer the idea as simpler as possible for the kids to be able to assimilate. Here, I will highlight some key process for you to benefit.

Though, It all depends on the mode of the explanation of the concept in question. And the level of the students matters too. Your teaching methodology and behavioral aspects count too. I have taught in schools and colleges before, across different age brackets. For instance, The procedures use to teaching a primary 6 is not applicable to teaching those kids in Nur. 1, vis-a-vis.

Here are some activities for your classroom to add a bit of sparkle and creativity. As children work, ask critical questions such as "Did you try this?" "What would have happened if?" "Do you think you could?" to enhance children's understanding of mathematical ideas and vocabulary.

Use dramatizations . Invite children pretend to be in a ball (sphere) or box (rectangular prism), feeling the faces, edges, and corners and to dramatize simple arithmetic problems such as: Three frogs jumped in the pond, then one more, how many are there in all?

Use children's bodies. Suggest that children show how many feet, mouths, and so on they have. When asked to show their "three arms," they respond loudly in protest, and then tell the adult how many they do have and show ("prove"wink it. Then invite children to show numbers with fingers, starting with the familiar, "How old are you?" to showing numbers you say, to showing numbers in different ways (for example, five as three on one hand and two on the other).

Use children's play. Engage children in block play that allows them to do mathematics in numerous ways, including sorting, seriating, creating symmetric designs and buildings, making patterns, and so forth. Then introduce a game of Dinosaur Shop. Suggest that children pretend to buy and sell toy dinosaurs or other small objects, learning counting, arithmetic, and money concepts.

Use children's toys. Encourage children to use "scenes" and toys to act out situations such as three cars on the road, or, later in the year, two monkeys in the trees and two on the ground.

Use children's stories. Share books with children that address mathematics but are also good stories. Later, help children see mathematics in any book. In Blueberries for Sal, by Robert McCloskey (Penguin, 1993), children can copy "kuplink, kuplank, kuplunk!" and later tell you the number as you slowly drop up to four counters into a coffee can.
Use children's natural creativity. Children's ideas about mathematics should be discussed with all children. Here's a "mathematical conversation" between two boys, each 6 years of age: "Think of the biggest number you can. Now add five. Then, imagine if you had that many cupcakes." " Wow, that's five more than the biggest number you could come up with!"

Use children's problem-solving abilities. Ask children to describe how they would figure out problems such as getting just enough scissors for their table or how many snacks they would need if a guest were joining the group. Encourage them to use their own fingers or manipulatives or whatever else might be handy for problem solving.

Use a variety of strategies. Bring mathematics everywhere you go in your classroom, from counting children at morning meeting to setting the table, to asking children to clean up a given number or shape of items. Also, use a research-based curriculum to incorporate a sequenced series of learning activities into your program.

Use technology. Try digital cameras to record children's mathematical work, in their play and in planned activities, and then use the photographs to aid discussions and reflections with children, curriculum planning, and communication with parents. Use computers wisely to mathematize situations and provide individualized instruction.

Use assessments to measure children's mathematics learning. Use observations, discussions with children, and small-group activities to learn about children's mathematical thinking and to make informed decisions about what each child might be able to learn from future experiences. Also try computer assessments. Use programs that assess children automatically

Demigods666:
It's not boring

And it's very important because
Math is important in everyday life for several reasons, which include preparation for a career, developing problem-solving skills, improving analytical skills and increasing mental acuity. On a daily basis, people are presented with different forms of data that must be organized and absorbed in order to make decisions. Daily activities such as making purchases, saving money, planning for retirement, choosing insurance and calculating expenses require math skills.


And OP change your teaching method, try to break it down bit by bit and as you teach ask them if they understand and what they don't understand they should ask

And also let them know why they should learn maths.

Its like the foundation of life, foundation of almost everything else.
You said it.

My dear, the problem is not from you. Mathematics is Boring, I can bet my birthday cake that 85% of us here are victims of this situation .. Who takes mathematics serioushuh
Mathematics is NOT boring. I did not feel this way in secondary school, trust me. I was a very lazy student. Still am, for that matter. But I began studying math on my own after I was admitted into the university because I realized I was missing out on learning a lot of things because of my reluctance to work at anything requiring more than a little effort. If you apply yourself to it because you want to, and not because you have to pass it, you'll love it.



It also helps to have a reason for studying it. Find out its areas of application. Get yourself interested in any field that requires knowledge of math. That'll be your motivation.
