Two times.
Again, you weren't exposed to that information.
But the idea is that I can now, we got it instilled in our
heads, we can figure out the math, if somebody is really
confused about it, you can explain that.
Because if that...
(male speaker). Now can I ask the question.
What if I felt like the swamp water needed to be boiled before
drinking, and that's why I said 12, can you [unlcear audio].
(John). You can definitely do that.
In fact, you can see when I give exams, this is just for lecture
purposes, this is one of my questions on exams, I would see
that you get correct answers, because I actually have a
verification-justification area on my exams.
But for this situation for me to discuss this topic, you got it
right, and you're thinking beyond what we talked about
here, and I actually give you kudos for what you just did.
Again, hopefully not too many of us are going to be boiling
swamp water, but again if you've ever been involved in
the outdoors, you've got quite a bit--no, you're exactly right,
in fact that's very, very good.
In fact, when I've done a lot of backpacking trips in the
Maryland and the Pennsylvania regions, if you ever really do a
lot of these experiences, you don't have water traveling
with you, especially if you backpack.
Backpacking, you usually carry about a day to two days worth of
water at the most.
And on your map, you might have where it's eight miles and
you'll be able to find it, this is your water source.
And from that site the closest source is, let's say 12 miles
away, and you're desperate for water.
There's been many times that I've actually come up there and
it says its a spring, and you identify the spring, their
notes say it's a spring.
You get there, and what a spring is, it's not,
oh my gosh, you see Perrier and the water is just
bubbling out [audience laughter].
A spring would mean that you see water, and you're looking
on the ground, where do you see water traces.
You actually see that it might be just a trickle, something
about the size of your finger just bubbling out of the dirt.
That is your spring, so you have to clean that given region out.
And you have to clean that, so therefore this is a situation
where even though it's warm, you still have to boil it.
Well in this situation, we were stuck, not only was it not
bubbling out of the ground--which we had to find it,
I felt like Jed Clampett--but there were buzzards everywhere,
and there was bird guano in that given region.
So now we're thinking we're going to die.
And by the way, we didn't have enough fuel, so everybody is
taking off their bandanas, we're filtering as best as we could,
but we made it out of there that day.
Next one.
Which of the following is an advantage of butane?
Again, we went over this information in the past.
[no dialogue].
The candle just went out, now let's see what you guys said.
Most of you said it was because there was no priming.
Who in the heck put on there it was about the shipping, I
actually specifically identified that [audience laughter].
Anyways, the idea that priming should have stood out, we had
71% of you today actually paying attention.
And again, had [unlcear audio].
Now we're going to identify what is that correct answer.
Which of the following is an advantage of white gas stoves?
[no dialogue].
Alright, let's see what you guys said about that.
About 86% of you, so now we're not just guessing, now we're
seeing that the majority, even though we do have some guessers
up here [audience laughter].
Fuel spills evaporate quickly, no priming required
for white gas.
You guys might see what you have here, let's see what happens.
And I think if I remember that one correctly we had--in fact,
you guys should look at these reports at the very
end--I thought that we actually had it between one, two, and
three spread last time, now we have some people that
changed their minds.
Again, why is it so confusing, I need to do this type of
presentation because I gave you a lot of information.
It's not like I just gave you one fuel and you are
going to remember it.
I did this on purpose where it's confusing, I said high this, low
this, all that good stuff.
There's no way you're going to be able to retain this.
Again, this is the reason why I'm doing this.
Even though this may be a topic that you have some information
or some background in, it was purposely designed
to be a little confusing.
And finally this one here, in fact you've got 22 seconds
on this one.
This is a little game on, what is it, remember we
talked about this the very first slide, again this is
really, really important.
What is the low cost, low heat fuel source, which one?
You can see you have to unscramble it, you have some
letters missing here so that you would actually have your answer.
I don't like this, this is something that actually is
innate within the program, they are correct.
But here's the problem, you don't just pop them in,
the answer is scrambled.
In fact, I don't know if too many of us get this.
This is something that actually comes with the software.
You guys have played with that before?
Let's say...
(male speaker). By the time you figure out that
the correct one is right, time is gone.
(John). Well, I know, and I did give you
22 seconds on this one.
Again, I could have said no time at all, took the time off.
But really, I just want to show that this is probably something
that most of us aren't familiar with.
I've got to scramble the answer as well to fit in there.
If I could just say, you know, what goes after the E, what goes
after the N, its all in some kind of order below.
Then I think you would figure that one out.
But by default you have to figure out all those lines.
Now which one is it?
So this is a situation that probably has to give you about
a minute or two to figure this out.
But again, I just gave you 22 seconds, knowing that you aren't
going to get it right [audience laughter].
Let's see what happens, alright, I didnt [unclear audio].
But anyways, that's what that was.
You actually have some games that are already
installed within the software, that you can tie it
to the very beginning.
If you remember one of our first slides was this, and
what is the answer for that.
(male speaker). Three.
(John). It is actually three.
That space gives it away because they also--this is a two-termed
word, it was denatured alcohol--it doesn't recognize
that, so it didn't take that space, so what it did do was put
a space right there, so it sort of gave that one away.
Alright, no big deal.
Now, another thing that's nice about working with
Turning Reports is that you can actually then look at some
graphical results by question.
Again, there's other things you can do as well, you can get
reports--these four here are the ones that I really like.
You actually get the graphic results by the question so
I can see where you're at from the first to the last,
see if I need some concerns.
Results by individual question, individual scoring.
Now if I do want to tie this in and I did make
those last slides.
I do this often where I am now going to give a quiz.
I just talked to you about these elements, or in fact I might not
even do it in this class, I'm going to give you one class time
to look over your notes.
I'm then going to have it the tail end of my next lecture.
Now I am going to fire four slides at you.
See if you--I do this quite often in my Finance--so I am
going to find out if you understand the direct/indirect
changes, variable type costs, all these different scenarios.
Now what happens is, instead of me having you pass it to your
partner where you actually can grade it and I can trust that
you are learning this and your partner is not going to try to
help you out by giving you a little higher score, I can
actually pull this up and find out exactly where you're at.
And if I see that Joe is really not getting this, I may
want to talk to him on the side and say, Joe, come here,
let me help you out here.
But now I don't have to be intrusive and say
who doesn't understand this.
I have this report and it identifies who does or
who doesn't get this information.
Then also there is a Word outline.
I like this, too, because you know what?
Now I have some test questions if I wanted to.
They're actually made up for me, let's see if I can pull this up
here real quickly here, this is the end of this.
Where I do this from is going right to my Tools.
I am going to go right into my--sorry, I don't have a mouse
up here--Turning Reports.
Okay, I'm going to generate some reports.
Current session.
And then you have all these different options--again, you
can do them all.
Just give me all this information, but the ones
I really like, I could just click this entire thing here,
but I'm going to show you because there's two of them.
Graphical results by question, and results by question.
Those are the two to identify that I really like.
Then I like to go down to this one here, other reports.
Individual scoring, and then I also like to have my
outline--it's actually a Word document.
Again, remember these go anywhere from Excel to Word.
And then, I'm hoping this is going to work where I can
actually see my tabs.
I go down here and I generate my report.
Takes just a few seconds...see if it does it.
Sometimes--like I have two monitors--I can't see my tabs.
We'll see if this does it here...oh, they do have my tabs.
If you notice I have all my tabs right here--results by question,
individual scoring, I can move it along.
But anyways, I can now see generically my first one before
I even introduced this lecture material I could see that
you guys were stuck.
Fifty percent of you thought this, well look at
this one here.
The next one was how many quarts or liters would
you need on a seven-day outing.
You all got it...well, it was two that answered, 100%
[audience laughter], you got it correct.
Now, granted it was your first button, so I assume that that
probably was why it was correct.
But the idea is that I can see, you know, is that a concern.
Now generically if I look at my figure here, and I say,
you know what, there's no problem, I need to skip this,
you guys know that information.
That's not true.
I found that only two of you actually answered
in the beginning.
Again, because this is a lecture, we're trying to get to
the principles of this.
Am I going to give you 12 seconds, no.
I don't, time is not as big of an issue for me, but let's say
that I have it set for 30 seconds or 45 seconds, or
have it where when the last person responds then it
tells me that, and I can go on.
But again, I am just trying to get the information out to you.
So I have that information here, I break it all down, I can see
that not, other than that one, I can see that most of you
are responding, most of you are responding and you are confused,
so I'm glad to see that.
And then it goes down to the end, I can see
every one of these.
And it get's a little better here, I can see now that most of
your responses are now more uniform.
I can go in here and I can actually find results
by the given question.
I can break that down instead of seeing that visual,
how many actually did what.
Again, I only had two people respond, two people respond,
so many respond again.
That's because of the time, I only gave you 10 seconds.
Most of you can't read the question let alone am I going to
respond to it correctly.
Individual scoring, now I can actually see who did what and
find out which response pad you are, and then go from there,
so that can be very, very useful.
And another one, again there's others that
you could use as well.
Where is that booger at?
I wonder if it didn't make that report.
It doesn't look like my Word file was--I thought
I had marked it.
Anyways, what typically happens next--I wish you could see it,
It's not coming up--you actually get a Word file.
It actually has your exact questions spelled out, in Word
format, breaks it down, what were the questions, and again,
you can just take that thing, and now you transfer it straight
word for word as a file to your exam.
