 learn how to teach than I found it to learn any of the things I was taught in school!
I think Dan Willingham’s book “Why Don’t Students Like School?” is a good read. He makes some of the same assumptions you’ve mentioned above, but I found it useful.
My big take-away from his book was “memories are the residue of what we repeatedly think about”.
Eg. It’s not the task that matters, it’s the thinking and how often someone thinks about something.
In this book, Willingham seems agnostic on the whole idea of interpretations of thinking (or what some people call misconceptions) though which I see as a significant flaw in the new wave of cognitive psychology of which he is part.
G. Polya’s How To Solve It is a classic. You can find it on line quickly enough.
Being a devil’s advocate – what make your 6 “mathematical activities” mathematical? They don’t seem to be relegated to this discipline of mathematics in any way. Rather, they seem to be the human condition, part of which involves solving the problems presented by our experiential reality, and part of which satisfies our need to communicate with others. If these are your 6 human activities that you consider to be what shapes this quality of being human we have deemed mathematical, than I suggest you focus on teaching children, not mathematics (and you have me as a huge cheerleader). Which brings up a need to have an answer to the question, what do you feel is your responsibility to teach what I will call the discipline of mathematics, or maybe stated as the content of maths?
well, since you evidently know what all the fuss is about.
what’s all the fuss about?
&gt; Similarly to how First-Generation Necromancers are created, can us Adventurers worship a deity associated with the Death sphere and be granted an ancient slab containing the 'Secrets of Life and Death' by that deity after fervent worship?

Not at present.  Nor can it happen in fort mode even if you make a temple to a death god.  It only happens to historical figures during worldgen right now.

&gt;Also, do the other spheres grant any secrets?

Not at present.  Necromancy is the one and only secret right now.

&gt;If not for the latter question, I hope they may be features of the upcoming Mythgen.

I believe that's the plan, but probably not until after all the Steam stuff is done, so it'll be a long while."The girl walks over from the house to the sea."
Translation:A lány elsétál a háztól a tengerhez.
The language got you! Yeeeessssss!!!
I guess the difference is just not that important here. But let me ask you this: does "walk over to the sea" sound natural to you? Would it be better without "over"?
From the house to the sea, it just doesn't sound something that I would walk "over" or "across" ("át") to. Unless the sea is somehow "on the other side". Maybe there is a road or a park in-between.
"Elsétál" sounds more natural, more normal to me. Basically, she starts at the house and walks to the sea.
In conclusion, what you thought is absolutely correct. It is just an inaccurate translation. It is those nuances that you need to be a native for to get absolutely right. The Hungarian sentence does sound more natural with "el".
When used in the context of "from one location to another", over implies that the two places are at approximately the same height or the height difference is not relevant. For example, if two offices are on the same floor of a building, an office worker might say I'll bring that over for you, while if the offices were on different floors, the sentence would likely be I'll bring that up [down] for you. However, distances are not constrained, e.g. He came over from England last year and now lives in Los Angeles or I moved the stapler over to the other side of my desk.
Thanks! That makes a lot of sense. "Át" seems to have a lot in common with "over" and also a lot with "across". To me, with "át", the emphasis is on the source and the destination, and their relationship. It could be from one office to another (on the same level), from one tree to another, from my place to your place, etc. And it can also be across something. Across the street, across town, etc.
With "el", there is more emphasis on the journey itself, and the destination.
Átmegyek a szomszédhoz - I go over to the neighbor.
Elmegyek dolgozni - I go to work.
"Átmenni a háztól a tengerhez", to me, just does not fit the mold. They are (hopefully) not on the same level, and they have nothing in common. So, what remains is the "across" sense of the word. The house is on one side of the road, the sea is on the other side. "Átmegyek a tengerhez" can pass.
Or I could imagine a house on the beach, with an ice cream stand next to it, and a long line of people. And another ice cream stand immediately next to the sea, with only a few people. I would choose "átsétálni a tengerhez". Walk over there with a purpose.
And whoever chooses "elsétálni" might enjoy the walk itself, as well.The Legionella Reference Center in Japan collected 427 Legionella clinical isolates between 2008 and 2016, including 7 representative isolates from corresponding outbreaks. The collection included 419 Legionella pneumophila isolates, of which 372 belonged to serogroup 1 (SG1) (87%) and the others belonged to SG2 to SG15 except for SG7 and SG11, and 8 isolates of other Legionella species (Legionella bozemanae, Legionella dumoffii, Legionella feeleii, Legionella longbeachae, Legionella londiniensis, and Legionella rubrilucens). L. pneumophila isolates were genotyped by sequence-based typing (SBT) and represented 187 sequence types (STs), of which 126 occurred in a single isolate (index of discrimination of 0.984). These STs were analyzed using minimum spanning tree analysis, resulting in the formation of 18 groups. The pattern of overall ST distribution among L. pneumophila isolates was diverse. In particular, some STs were frequently isolated and were suggested to be related to the infection sources. The major STs were ST23 (35 isolates), ST120 (20 isolates), and ST138 (16 isolates). ST23 was the most prevalent and most causative ST for outbreaks in Japan and Europe. ST138 has been observed only in Japan, where it has caused small-scale outbreaks; 81% of those strains (13 isolates) were suspected or confirmed to infect humans through bath water sources. On the other hand, 11 ST23 strains (31%) and 5 ST120 strains (25%) were suspected or confirmed to infect humans through bath water. These findings suggest that some ST strains frequently cause legionellosis in Japan and are found under different environmental conditions.
IMPORTANCE Legionella pneumophila serogroup 1 (SG1) is the most frequent cause of legionellosis. Our previous genetic analysis indicated that SG1 environmental isolates represented 8 major clonal complexes, consisting of 3 B groups, 2 C groups, and 3 S groups, which included major environmental isolates derived from bath water, cooling towers, and soil and puddles, respectively. Here, we surveyed clinical isolates collected from patients with legionellosis in Japan between 2008 and 2016. Most strains belonging to the B group were isolated from patients for whom bath water was the suspected or confirmed source of infection. Among the isolates derived from patients whose suspected infection source was soil or dust, most belonged to the S1 group and none belonged to the B or C groups. Additionally, the U group was discovered as a new group, which mainly included clinical isolates with unknown infection sources.
Legionellosis is an infectious disease whose severity varies from a mild febrile illness to a serious and sometimes fatal form of pneumonia (1); it is caused by Legionella spp., Gram-negative bacteria that multiply in free-living, ubiquitous, freshwater and soil amoebae (2). The bacteria also contaminate manmade water systems, such as cooling towers, hot and cold water systems, and whirlpool spas, from which humans contract the disease via inhalation of contaminated aerosols (3, 4).
In Japan, legionellosis is an infectious disease that has required mandatory notification to the National Epidemiological Surveillance of Infectious Diseases, under the Diseases Control Law, since April 1999. The notified number of legionellosis patients increased from 154 to 1,602 between 2000 and 2016 (Fig. 1) (https://www.niid.go.jp/niid/ja/survei/2085-idwr/ydata/7310-report-ja2016-20.html), with the diagnosis of urinary antigen being prevalent. Several outbreaks of Legionnaires' disease associated with public bath facilities have occurred (5–10), and bathing facilities were found to be the main source of infection in Japan (8), although most such facilities had circulation systems fitted with filters and used hot spring water. Even for sporadic cases, infection source surveys
