![]() Sizzling Keys lets me use a number of custom keyboard shortcuts to control iTunes, rate tracks, and even display a floating window showing what’s playing. I’ve never cottoned to using the media keys on Apple’s keyboard, since they’re just a bit too far too reach easily. When I want to pause music, change the volume, or skip tracks, I don’t like to have to switch to iTunes and click its buttons I prefer doing it more quickly. I listen to music a lot while I work, and iTunes runs all day on my Mac in the background. iStat Menus also offers better menu extras than Apple’s for my MacBook’s battery status and for the date and time. For example, if I see that my Mac’s CPU is running hot, or there’s a lot of network throughput, I can click to view a menu and find which app is the culprit. Clicking any of these graphs displays more information. Whenever I want to check something, a quick glance shows me what’s happening. IStat Menus is always visible in my menu bar, but its display is small and unobtrusive. Left to right: RAM usage, network throughput, CPU usage, date and time. IStat Menus adds menu extras to the menu bar. IStat Menus keeps me appraised of some important data, such as how much RAM my Mac is using, how busy its CPU is, how much data is entering or leaving my Mac over the network, and more. ![]() iStat MenusĪs I work with my Mac, I like to keep an eye on some system information to make sure everything is running smoothly.

![]() In addition to standard editing features, DaVinci Resolve provides creative workflow tools like audio editing and mixing. DaVinci Resolve for iPad also comes with its own shortcuts that allow users to quickly zoom in and out of specific parts of their project timeline. You can make quick adjustments on the fly without having to reach for a mouse or keyboard. This isn’t just a quick cut-and-paste job of the software you’re running on your video editing computer or video editing laptop. It’s also been optimized for touchscreens. It includes all familiar editing tools, such as trimming, cutting, and adding effects. The iPad version has an intuitive user interface that is easy to learn and use. One of the best parts about DaVinci Resolve for iPad is that those with experience in the full version of their editing computer will feel right at home. ![]() Seamless transition for desktop DaVinci Resolve editors.All these extra features help ensure that editors get the most out of their time with the app. They can create custom layouts that make keeping track of complex projects easier while working on them in the video editing software. For instance, users can choose from several different color profiles, allowing them to match their project's visual look with a suitable color scheme. The interface also features several helpful tools and customization options that allow users to tailor their experience. But with its intuitive design, even novice editors will find it simpler to learn how to use Resolve on the iPad. We’re not saying it’s the best video editing software for beginners. DaVinci Resolve's user interface is designed to make the editing process as smooth and efficient as possible. This helps ensure that each project looks its best before being shared with others. Users can preview their changes in real-time when adjusting to effects such as color grading without rendering them first. ![]() The timeline is also clearly visible at the bottom of the screen and is an easy way to play or pause a clip right from the timeline itself. For example, there are dedicated buttons for adding audio clips and creating transitions between videos. The entire editing process has been streamlined to make it as easy to use as possible, with all the essential tools located conveniently on the main page. Resolve for iPad feels both modern and intuitive. And a big part of that is being able to connect with our peers in Memphis and Dayton and the other 68 cities that are part of the network and I really want to talk to the listeners here who have not really mastered the policy space, who still feel uncertain or uncomfortable in that space and are figuring it out. First and foremost, at UP partnership we are learners and StriveTogether helps us to learn in all sorts of ways we would not otherwise. First I want to say it’s awesome to be here with you and with Haley and with Stacy. “Young people are living in a reality that US adults can only have a partial insight into.” - Ryan Lugalia-Hollon, Chief Executive Officer of UP Partnership in San Antonio, Texas So we have the national office of StriveTogether know that the San Antonio Bexar County and UP Partnership have had this unique and successful way of ushering in a vehicle for youth to be engaged and I’d love for you to tell our listeners about your approach there and what makes that so important to your work. But I know, personally, and have been a fan of the approach that you all have taken in Bexar County in San Antonio, with a specific focus on youth as a population, to find their voice and to become activated in a way that allows for the next generation of leaders to enter into this space. They brought billions in investments to education in Texas. You know, Ryan, I’m gonna turn to you next, because in episode two of this current season, we actually had Susan Dawson, your colleague from E3 Alliance on the podcast, and we spoke with Susan about the work happening in Texas, really, to focus on the statewide effort where multiple organizations like E3 partnership came together to help pass a law. And also early on, I’ll tell you, we knew that particularly at the local level at the district level, the government level here locally, but also statewide, and federally, that policy was a major part of what our work would have to involve to be able to reach our goals that we have for student success. We had to focus we found those levers early on. And when we looked at the data, we saw the disparities here in Montgomery county, we also identified some places on that cradle to career continuum where it was pretty clear. And so that meant that we were immediately paying attention to data. So for Learn to Earn Dayton, you know, we trace our roots back more than a decade to a time in Dayton, Ohio, when we had a mass exodus of major employers in the community came together and said, you know, what do we need to do to make sure that this doesn’t continue to happen, and that we can bring living wage jobs back to our community and major employers back to our community and conversation at the time was really that it was clear, there was a need to align partners for the purpose of building human capital here in Montgomery County, Ohio, the county where Dayton sits.Īnd so we got to work and Learn to Earn had, it’s early days, we were a really early proof point community in the StriveTogether network. “Policy was a major part of what our work would have to involve to be able to reach our goals that we have for student success.” - Stacy Schweikhart, Chief Executive Officer at Learn to Earn Dayton in Dayton, Ohio And tell us a bit about what you’re doing now, you know? And when did you also realize that policy needed to be a part of the work that you’re performing? ![]() Can you give us a high-level overview of of some of the challanges being faced in the Ohio area they existed before Learn to Earn Dayton was established. And I really like to give our listeners some more content on the work that you’re doing. You know you all are the latest StriveTogether network member to receive the Systems Transformation designation. Haley Simmons, Chief Public Policy Officer at Seeding Success in Memphis, Tennessee, and Stacy Schweikhart, Chief Executive Officer at Learn to Earn Dayton in Dayton, Ohio. I’m joined by Ryan Lugalia-Hollon, Chief Executive Officer of UP Partnership in San Antonio, Texas. I’m really excited to be talking to several StriveTogether network members who have been successful in their local and state policy efforts in bringing lasting change to their communities. ![]() In this episode, we explore different approaches to policy work and show why it can be effective for achieving results at scale. And today, we’re talking about the critical role that policy plays in the role of systems transformation. This season, we’ve been focusing on our North Star of economic mobility by diving deep into how children and families are better off as a result of social impact work that treats the root causes of issues rather than only focusing on the symptoms.Īt StriveTogether we do this by changing systems and building up civic infrastructure. Hello, this is Josh Davis, Vice President of Policy and Partnerships at StriveTogether and your host for today’s episode of Together for Change. ![]() Use the control panel menu to type an IP address that is valid for use on your local area network.

This hormone helps you feel more relaxed while also balancing your body’s internal clock or circadian rhythm. ![]() That’s why when the sun sets, you may find yourself getting sleepy and most people feel more alert when the sun rises or after being exposed to light. Your brain naturally produces a sleep hormone called melatonin in response to darkness. For example, 2 gummies contain just 1 mg of melatonin, 30 mg of L-Theanine, and 5 mg each of chamomile, passionflower, and lemon balm extracts. Many of the ingredients in Olly’s Kids Sleep Gummies are the same as the adult version, just in lesser amounts.

The sounds evolve as they play and do not repeat. Sounds include white, pink, and brown noises along with fan sounds and natural ones like the ocean, rain, and waterfalls. This is a great option if you need a sound machine that can adapt to different situations. It adapts to your environment, decreasing the sound in quiet environments and increasing the sound in loud background environments. The Adaptive Sound+Sleep SE machine has 64 different adaptive sound environments. You can also have it play sounds like birds, chimes, or a flute to wake you up gently instead of having a blaring alarm clock. It works by gradually lighting up around your wake-up time to ease you out of sleep gently. The Hatch Restore also has an integrated light that can be used to wake you up or help you fall asleep. The only downside is that the app for the larger sound library, sleep exercises, and wind-down routines requires a paid subscription at around $5 per month. The app also has sleep programs that you can stream to the device. It allows you to have a wind-down routine before bed and turn the sound therapy back on in the morning. Hatch Restore is an alarm clock integrated with a sound machine. You can have a variety of sounds from a light fan noise to a deep drone like an airplane cabin no matter where you are. While it’s a bit larger than the Oasis at 5.6” length by 5.6” width by 3.2” height, it’s definitely portable. The beauty of the Snooz is that while it’s like a fan, it uses up to 98% less energy than a regular fan, doesn’t blow air outside of the device, and is travel friendly. The Snooz is unique in that it integrates with your phone’s clock, so you can have a wind-down routine before bed and turn the sound therapy back on in the morning. If you want to adjust it manually, you change the sound by simply twisting the outer shell. It has a free app that allows you to set timers, adjust tone, and set volume. Snooz is another analog sound machine that uses a fan-in-a-box to create sound. It even comes in six different colors so you can personalize it to your preferences or the acoustics of your room. All you need to do is plug it in, put the switch on either low or high, and rotate the cap and collar to play the sound you want. ![]() The machine was first invented in 1962 and was originally called the Sleepmate. The Dohm also has an app that allows you to set timers, adjust the tone, and set the volume. ![]() The volume control opens up the vents to let more sound into your room. There are two modes and a physical volume control, so you can adjust the sound to your preferred loudness and quality. Instead, it creates sound with a fan in a small container. ![]() Dohmĭohm is an analog sound machine, which means that it doesn’t use digital speakers. The Sound Oasis is highly portable at 2.6” tall and 2.5” in diameter. It can be powered by a USB port or run for up to 5-8 hours on a rechargeable built-in battery.

But even more often, a math problem may be beyond your own personal limits of math ability. Sometimes the Praxis will give you an exceptionally complicated problem specifically geared toward calculator use. There are times when using a calculator is absolutely the right move on the exam. These estimates are not terribly accurate, but they’re as accurate as you need to be on Praxis Core Math.ġ0. ![]() Similarly, the square roots of 6, 7, or 8, would be between 2 and 3, but closer to 3. So you can know that the square root of 5 is between 2 and 3, and closer to 2. You already know that 2 is the square root of 4 and 3 is the square root of 9. ![]() The square root of 9 is 3.īut what about square roots that don’t result in whole numbers? How, for example, can you calculate the square root of 5? Bringing up that square root on a calculator will produce decimals that are needlessly complicated for the purposes of Core Math.įortunately, there’s a simple estimation method in cases like this. All you need to know for the purposes of core math is that pi can be rounded down to 3.14. In numerical form, pi is 3 followed by an infinite number of decimals. Pi comes up multiple times on the Core Math test. It’s used to calculate certain properties of circles and cylinders. Just choose the answer that comes the closest to your estimation.Ĩ. Frequently, if you can estimate the answer within reasonable accuracy, you’re as close as you need to be. Most Praxis core math problems are multiple choice. The more math you can comfortably do in your head, the better you’ll perform on the Core Math exam.ħ. The same goes for writing out all of the steps on scratch paper-don’t write out every step if there’s a simpler way. More often than not, using the on-screen calculator will slow you and increase chances of error. If you need to identify the points on a coordinate plane and the question already tells you that one of the points is x2, y-4, then you can quickly eliminate any answer that doesn’t contain that intersection.Ħ. If a problem involves multiplying by an even number, you can eliminate odd answers. ![]() If a problem involves multiplying by two odd numbers, any even number will be a wrong answer. Just as you don’t always need to carefully check each variable, there are often quick ways to rule out an answer choice without picking it apart. Eliminate obviously incorrect answer choices. If you waste time on variables that don’t’ matter, you will make more mistakes and risk running out of time.ĥ. Develop an eye for information you don’t need. Story problems will mention variables that aren’t useful in calculating the answer. Geometry questions will depict angles or lines you don’t actually need to pay attention to. The Praxis Core Math exam tests your ability to focus on the right details in a seemingly complicated problem. If you don’t develop this deeper understanding, you will make mistakes easily on test day.Ĥ. Instead, take a really good look at the concept behind the vocabulary word, and how this concept makes math “work.” Similarly, analyze the logic behind every formula. When you learn a vocabulary word, don’t just memorize the definition. All too often, test-takers simply memorize formulas and vocabulary words without actually understanding the deeper meaning behind them. A great starting point for remembering the formulas is Mike’s cheat sheet right here on our blog.ģ. But more often than not, you won’t be given a formula, and you’ll just need to know it. Sometimes Praxis Core Math will give you the formula you need. The Dummies website has a good list of Core Math vocabulary words here.Ģ. Know the meanings of words like numerator, factor, mean, median, congruent, variable, and so on. Be sure you understand the key words associated with algebra, geometry, statistics, and math operations. One of the most frustrating ways to “blow” a Praxis Core Math question is to simply not know the vocabulary. Below are ten tips to help you get in touch with your inner “math person” and get a top score in math on the Praxis Core.ġ. If your math skills are a little shaky, there are number of steps you can take to prepare for Praxis Core Math. Not everyone is a “math person,” and even skilled math students can get out of practice if they haven’t had to do math in a while. |
