On their journey from infant to adult, children pass through four planes of development. Each plane is characterized by a specific developmental goal and corresponding tendencies. The first plane, from 0-6 years old, is known as the plane of the absorbent mind. At this age children experience sensitive periods which assist them in formation of self and orientation with their world. Language acquisition, concern for order, attention to detail, locomotion and use of hands are all sensitive periods of first stage of development.  2, record 1, English, - absorbent%20mind

L'esprit absorbant est la principale caractéristique du jeune enfant : celle d'absorber tout ce qui l'entoure. Cet état mental lui permet d'assimiler ses expériences et de se construire en les intégrant. Grâce à l'esprit absorbant, l'enfant intègre profondément les notions qui le mèneront à l'abstraction. Il devient progressivement conscient à partir de 3 ans.  1, record 1, French, - esprit%20absorbant

In August, 2007, the Settlement Workers in Schools(SWIS) program sponsored a pilot project to prepare newly arrived youth for entry to eight(8) high schools in Ontario. Called Newcomer Orientation Week or NOW, this intensive orientation initiative was piloted in six(6) high schools in Toronto, one(1) in Peel Region and one(1) in Hamilton. The NOW program was strategically positioned to occur just prior to the beginning of the school year. In NOW, former newcomer students are trained to lead the activities with the newly arrived students. The overall concept of NOW is that newcomer youth begin to feel more comfortable in the school setting and, if they run into difficulties, know how to get support-from PLs, teachers and/or SWIS workers. The overall goal of NOW is : To give newcomer youth a head start in their new school by familiarizing them with the school building and routines, linking them to students already attending the school, and orienting them to sources of help as well as the “culture” of the Ontario educational system.  1, record 2, English, - Newcomer%20Orientation%20Week

En 2007, le projet SONA a été mis à l’essai dans huit écoles secondaires de l’Ontario pour fournir une orientation aux élèves du secondaire nouvellement arrivés au Canada dès leur arrivée au pays. La Semaine d’orientation des nouveaux arrivants (SONA) permet de présenter l’école et la collectivité aux élèves qui sont des nouveaux arrivants pendant la dernière semaine d’août avant la rentrée des classes. Cette séance est présentée par des jeunes qui ont été des nouveaux arrivants (des « peer leaders ») et animée par les TEE (Travailleurs de l'établissement dans les écoles) et les enseignants. Le programme SONA a été élargi en 2008 et est maintenant offert à 40 écoles.  1, record 2, French, - Semaine%20d%27orientation%20des%20nouveaux%20arrivants

The elements are the forward transfer element(FIE), the performance evaluation element or critic(PEEL) the system parameter transformation element, and the input and output functions.... The nature of the performance evaluation(PEEL) determines the character of the system as it contains the goal orientation of the system... The PEEL is then said to contain the goals and constraints of the system's operation and it maps the input and output functions into a set of measures Z, which indicate the performance of the system.  1, record 4, English, - performance%20evaluation%20element

The term "wayfinding" refers to the process of finding the way to a destination. Wayfinding is more than a matter of providing signs. The layout of a building, and the location of various parts of the building, such as stairs, will affect how easily and confidently people can find their way.
