Q: Before you take your device to record a lecture, it's a good idea to do a test run with it to make sure you know how to operate it properly. This will also help ensure that you don't have any disasters the day of a lecture. You can use the test run to figure out how close you need to be to a speaker to pick up her voice. You can easily do this by testing your own voice at different distances. Consider adding some background noise to your test run to see how this affects the quality of the recording and make adjustments as necessary. If you are aware of common recording problems, then you can avoid any disasters during the recording or when you play it back. This will help ensure that you also get the most from recording your college lecture. Make sure you have enough memory and battery power to record the entire lecture. Videotape the lecture if you're allowed. It will allow you to record power point presentations if the professor uses them. Make sure your device doesn't make any loud noises or create any visual signals that will distract you, your classmates, or the professor. Before you go to a lecture, check to make sure that you have not only enough storage space on your recording device, but also that it has enough battery power. This will ensure that you capture the entire class and don't miss anything. If you have a battery-operated device, make sure it is charged or that you have spare batteries. If you are using a tape recorder, take an extra tape or two with you in case you run out of space or experience technical difficulties. In order to get the most optimal recording of a lecture, sit close to where the professor is standing. This will ensure that you directly hear her voice, but also that there isn't as much background noise. If the professor moves around the classroom, it may not be as easy to capture her voice. Try sitting near the front at one of the sides to make sure that there aren't too many other people around you to dampen the professor's voice. Don't sit at the back of a classroom because you may not be able to record the lecture clearly. Make sure that you are not moving around too much so that your movements don't disrupt the sound recording. Taping a lecture is not an invitation to zone out during class. It's important that you also take notes on a lecture. Not only will writing notes help you remember the subject matter more effectively, but there are also notes the professor wrote on a board or in a slide presentation that a recording might not capture. Studies have shown that students who take handwritten notes actually learn and retain more. Use the recording only to clarify what you don't understand or didn't catch in class. If you want to be able to listen to your recorded lecture for notes or to help you understand a topic, remember to save it at the end of class. This will be a good backup and help clarify your written notes if need be. If you accidentally forgot to save the recording of your lecture, you can ask a friend if he has one. Many recording programs and devices will automatically save a recording as it progresses.
A: Do a test run with your device. Avoid common recording problems. Make sure you have enough storage and battery time. Sit close to the professor. Take notes to go with your recording. Save your recording.

Q: Draw a line between the "units" and the "tens" column to help align and use "place values" in columns. It is not important for your child to already know how to do two column addition. Do not have them put a "1" over the numbers, yet. Make certain the child places the digit(s) in the correct position (no digit should be in the units column.) If they are confused, cover up the units column. Have the child write the number(s) underneath the number already written in the "tens" column from the "units" column addition. Review what you have completed so far. If you were using the example above, you might say, "We're almost done. You did seven plus five equals twelve. Good. Four plus three equals seven. Correct. Notice that the four and the three are in the tens position, so you are really adding forty and thirty." Have the child bring the amount in the units column down to the bottom. Point to the numbers in the "tens" column and ask the child to add them up. By now, the child should already be familiar with the commutative law of addition or (at least) know that the order of addition is unimportant. Tell the child that this is a shortcut we call "carrying", and more commonly called "regrouping" in classrooms today.
A: Have the child learn (and memorize) the basic addition facts. Write out a math problem with two digits on the top and bottom. Ask the child to answer the units column first, placing both numbers in the correct (lower) positions. Ask the child to answer the tens column next. Tell the child that the problem is not finished. Explain that some addition still remains. Make certain that the child is comfortable with this before proceeding. Tell the child that, instead of writing the "1" under the tens digit, they are to place the "1" over the "tens" column. Ask the child to add the "1" to the top number of the "tens" column; then add the bottom number to that sum.

Q: Many recipes will ask you to make the sauce's foundation and then simmer it for a certain amount of time. This will "reduce" the sauce. Essentially, this means to thicken the sauce's consistency. When you reduce a sauce, the ingredients develop through a period of simmering into a thicker, richer, more flavorful substance. The longer you simmer the sauce, the thicker it will become and the more it will "reduce." The most commonly reduced sauces are tomato sauce, Bechamel sauce, balsamic reduction sauce, red wine reduction sauce and most sauces that begin with meat drippings. White sauces typically aren't reduced.
A: Follow the recipe instructions to start the sauce.

Q: Some subscription based services, such as Netflix, charge a monthly fee to let you to stream movies instantly as well as download them to your computer so you can watch them offline. Other services, such as iTunes and Google Play, offer movies that you can purchase and download individually with no monthly fee. And some services, such as Amazon Video, offer both options. Some of the popular on-demand movie services are: iTunes Store (requires the iTunes app for desktop or the iTunes Store app for mobile) Google Play Store: https://play.google.com Netflix: https://www.netflix.com/browse Amazon Prime Video: https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/getstarted YouTube: https://www.youtube.com Once you've decided which on-demand service you want to use, go to their website in a web browser or download the corresponding app on your smartphone. Most movie sources require you to have an account before you can access their content. Many streaming services offer free trials when you sign up but will eventually require paid subscriptions. YouTube does not require an account, but if you sign up for YouTube Red, its premium streaming service, you're able to download content without hassle. With YouTube, you can watch many streaming movies for free but downloading requires either a subscription to Red or a workaround. Not all streaming content is available for download: How to check availability for download from Netlfix How to check availability for download from Amazon Many movies are available in both standard (SD) and high (HD) definition formats. HD movies tend to be more expensive and will use more room on your device. Apple iTunes, Google Play, Amazon, and CinemaNow offer movies for both purchase and rental. Rental pricing and terms vary by source. Compare pricing among the different sources to make sure you're getting the best deal. Rental movies are removed from your device or disabled at the end of the rental period. You can watch most movies from most services on your desktop computer immediately. To get them to your mobile device, you'll usually need the proprietary app available from the Apple App Store, the Google Play Store, or the Amazon App Store. To watch on your TV, you may want or need additional equipment such as AppleTV, Google Chromecast, Amazon FireTV, Roku, or a smart TV.
