The straight line method assumes that the useful life of an asset is evenly distributed to its life, so results in a constant depreciation charge per year provided the estimated residual value remains constant over the life of the asset.
for example,
Asset's value = $100,000
useful life = 10 years
residual value = $20,000
depreciation per year = (100,000 - 20,000)/10
= $8000 per year
The diminishing balance method assumes that the asset is more useful on the early days and less useful in the later days, so it results in more depreciation charge in the early years and the charge decreases as the asset becomes old.
for example,
Asset's value = $100,000
residual value = $20,500
depreciation rate = 10%
useful life = 15 years
depreciation year 1. (100,000 * 10%) = 10,000
depreciation year 2. (100,000 - 10,000 W1) * 10% = 9000
depreciation year 3. (100,000 - 19,000 W2)* 10% = 8100
depreciation year 4. (100,000 - 27,100 W3)* 10% = 7290
W1 = depreciation of year 1
W2 = depreciation of year 1 and year 2 combined
W3 = depreciation of year 1, year 2 and year 3 combined
The communicative approach to language teaching presents the language in realistic situations and focuses on usage and semantics rather than the traditional formal structure. This allows students to more easily communicate verbally, but can result in a lack of written skills.
Why is perception a complex process?

I think to test manipulative skill 1 - a multiple choice test is a good start. Also if you could fashion a question to make the test subject answer in such a way to be able to figure which manipulative skills the test subject possesses. then you could validate the measurement of the manipulative skill the subject has attained.

What are advantages to knowing your personal learning style?
By recognizing and understanding your own learning styles, you can use techniques better suited to you. This improves the speed and quality of your learning. Your learning styles have more influence than you may realize. Your preferred styles guide the way you learn. They also change the way you internally represent experiences, the way you recall information, and even the words you choose. We explore more of these features in this chapter. Research shows us that each learning style uses different parts of the brain. By involving more of the brain during learning, we remember more of what we learn. Researchers using brain-imaging technologies have been able to find out the key areas of the brain responsible for each learning style. You are a unique learner. No one else learns in exactly the same way you do. There are many benefits to discovering how you process information best.

How do you keep learning about assessment?
A person cannot keep learning about assessment. However, a student can participate in classroom that use assessment for learning techniques. These techniques show students what they are supposed to be learning for any given chapter or unit being discussed on a particular subject. The teacher will start off the unit by determining what they student or students already know, and correct anything that student had remembered incorrectly. As more information is learned through the unit being presented, the teacher will access how much a student or students are picking up, and help them decide what else needs to be learned.
