Full Answer
It is very rare that I don't use the full estimate of the course. So a course with 4-8 hours per week usually takes me 8 hours per week. If it is a 4 week course I expect a 32 hour total effort.
Each credit hour corresponds to a minimum of 3 hours of student engagement per week for a traditional 14-week course or 6 hours per week for a 7-week course. This time may be spent on discussions, readings and lectures, study and research, and assignments.
Also on how much time you have per day or week on Khan Academy. Khan Academy does give approximations on how long it will take, but one course will take from 3 days to a week. You can narrow it down if you:
AIC uses the industry-standard Carnegie Unit to define credit hours for both traditional and distance courses. Each credit hour corresponds to a minimum of 3 hours of student engagement per week for a traditional 14-week course or 6 hours per week for a 7-week course.
You stand apart from the sea of 200-hour instructors and further your understanding of yoga and all the many layers that are so integral to the practice. It's a big commitment, and obtaining a 500-hour certificate absolutely lends itself to your credibility and dedication to the practice and your role as a teacher.
A “500-Hour RYT” is someone who has completed what is essentially an introductory level and an advanced level teacher training with Yoga Alliance registered schools (RYS). There are actually two ways to achieve this designation.
A 500-hour RYT is a person who has completed both their 200 and 300-hour trainings, along with over 100 hours of hands-on experience teaching yoga classes. Alternatively, a 500-hour RYT may have taken a 200-hour YTTC and a 300-hour YTTC (for a total of 500 hours — 200 + 300 = 500).
Teachers can register as a RYT® 500 if they have successfully completed a 500-hour yoga teacher training that is registered with Yoga Alliance. The 500 hours of training can either come from one school or can be a combination of a 200-hour teacher training plus 300 hours of advanced training from a RYS 300.
Once registered, an E-RYT 500 is able to provide continuing education workshops to other teachers and can be a Lead Trainer of a 200-hour, 300-hour or 500-hour teacher training.
500 hour of training is the highest international standard for yoga teachers. After completing this program, you can register as an Advanced Yoga Teacher or RYT-500 with Yoga Alliance. You will possess an in depth knowledge of the history and origin of yoga asanas and yoga philosophy.
Ans: In the yogic culture, the word RYT refers to a Registered Yoga Teacher. On the other hand, the YTT refers to Yoga Teacher Training. You have to complete the YTT to become an RYT.
In my experience, a well thought out online yoga teacher training or online workshop is totally worth it. They provide flexibility, community, and access to the materials anytime you want them. I recently brainstormed the many benefits of online yoga teacher training and put seven of them into a blog post.
8 Levels of Practice: Asanas, Pranayamas, Self-Enquiry Meditation, Relaxation, Chakras, Special conditions, Yogic Diet, and Philosophy.
With nearly two months of continuous study, this course is a Zero to 500 Hour Yoga Teacher Training Intensive. The program consists of the 200 hour foundational module, followed by the 300 hour advanced yoga or meditation training module.
The main difference between these two acronyms comes from the RYT designation, which is a registered trademark by the Yoga Alliance.
Please note that legally, you do not need a 200-Hour RYT certificate to teach yoga. But many yoga studio do require their instructors to have a 200 hours certification. However, we do absolutely recommend following a 200 hour yoga certification course before starting to teach professionally!
Assuming you follow the standard 2nd Grade--8th grade progression along with Alg. 1, Geometry, Alg. 2, Trig, Precalculus then there are a total of 2194 videos with a cumulative length of about 184 hours.
thaoviet131 The High School Biology course has 128 videos with a total length of about 19 hours
Overall, it just depends on your speed at math! Also on how much time you have per day or week on Khan Academy.
At 10 hours per week, it would take about 4 months just to watch all of the videos. That doesn't include time spent on exercises, unit tests, etc.
The 1984 world record for 500 pieces is 54′10″ by Joellen Beifuss (USA) at the US National Jigsaw Puzzle Championships 1984 in Ohio, USA. The record for a 1000 piece puzzle by a team of two is 1:01:29 hours by Joellen Beifuss and Pam Kerstetter (USA) at the US National Jigsaw Puzzle Championships 1986 in Ohio, USA. (See The book of alternative records ). First, note that with these times, they use about 6 seconds per piece on average. Second, note that a puzzle that is twice as big requires about twice as much time, even for world record holders! They rush to solve such a puzzle with only 7.2 seconds per piece in the case of 1000 pieces.
In the comments to this video, somebody claims that they solved a 500 piece puzzle with two people in about 30 minutes. That seems to be at roughly world record speed. The 5 min. video shows that two people solved a 275 piece jigsaw in 73′39″. That wasn’t very fast but gives an average of about 15 seconds per piece (individually: 30 seconds per piece). That is about 4 times slower than world record speed.
So starting RAW it might take 500 * 1.5 min AVERAGE which is 750 minutes for a normal guy. Because it takes alot time to dig between that large chunks of puzzle to grab a specific one.
EDIT: To add a bit, people who like puzzles, show us that they have the potential for or possess great patience for doing things they enjoy . It also reveals to us that they may have an analytical mind. If they have a system by which they solve puzzles, it may show us that they like strategy or possess an ability to strategize. If they enjoy huge puzzles, it may show that they enjoy taking on large complex tasks or that they are detail oriented. A puzzle is something to be solved, therefore a person who enjoys puzzles must like solving things. This ability to solve, might show up in other areas of their life where they might enjoy trying to solve other complex problems, whether in social situations or perhaps math.
Depends on how long you work on it. Realistically a 500 piece puzzle could be completed in a day.
Almost all are solved bottom-up in the sense that pieces join to clumps into bigger clumps into the whole puzzle, and top-down in the sense that the outer (flat borders) are fixed before the center. Up to 4-5 people can work simultaneously without losing efficiency or getting in each other's way.
Jigsaw puzzles are excellent candidates for parallel processing. My sons and wife love solving jigsaw puzzles -- from 500 to 10000 pieces - they work in parallel very efficiently. I buy them puzzles all the time. My son, who is a computer science major, says that there are many algorithms they use, parallel and sequential, depending on the kind of puzzle. Some puzzles are so simple, that they can be worked almost as if the pieces were numbered.
Coursera has emerged as the top site for learning new techniques and acquainting yourself with the latest developments in science, commerce, and arts.
Some of the courses are synchronous, meaning they are only available at a given time. All in all, Coursera is one of the best MOOC providers out there.
If you are attending/watching all the lectures on time along with reading & practising the study material. (Problem-solving) then it will take 6 - 7 hours to prepare a good or above average assignment.
Beyond that, most hiring managers and recruiters do not take it seriously because we are much more interested in prior relevant work experience. I’ve never even heard of Alison, and I’ve been recruiting the past 8+ years.
Learning How to Learn is just as critically acclaimed and targets just as wide of an audience, but the instructors are very specific with their estimate: “…about 3 hours of video, 3 hours of exercises, 3 hours of bonus material”. They’re able to offer this estimate because most of the topics begin from square one.
Machine Learning doesn’t attempt to estimate the number of hours it takes each week because the course does all three of the above to a great extent. Prof. Ng wanted to make ML accessible to almost anyone, so it has a wide audience.
Paid Coursera courses are cheaper than college/university programs. To receive a certificate, you'll have to complete all the coursework, including a capstone course and a project-based assessment. This allows you to get hands-on experience, making paid courses better than their free counterparts.
