GREEN WIND PROYECT
We want to create a proyect related with the energy for the problem that Venezuela is happens,so one of the best ways to produce our own electricity is creating Wind Turbine.
A wind turbine converts the energy of wind into kinetic energy. If the mechanical energy is used directly by machinery, such as pumping water, cutting lumber or grinding stones, the machine is called a windmill. If the mechanical energy is instead converted to electricity, the machine is called a wind generator, wind turbine, wind power. Is our proyect we are going to work with mechanical energy to converted electricity.

QUIZ 1, 2 AND 3 OF SUFFIXES
QUIZ 1
Well done, you've finished the quiz.
You scored 10/10 [100.0%] so why not print out your certificate?
1: A suffix is a group of letters that you add to the start of a root word.
You said: false
Well done! The statement is false because a suffix is a group of letters that you add to the end of a root word.
2: Which one of the following is a suffix?
You said: ing
Good choice! You have recognised the suffix 'ing' which you can add to the end of a word, e.g. 'walking'.
3: Which one of the following is not a suffix?
You said: ex
Good choice. 'Ex' is a prefix and means 'former'. You can add this to the start of a word such as 'ex' + 'husband' = 'ex-husband'.
4: Which one of the following is a suffix?
You said: less
Good choice! The suffix is 'less' which you can add to the end of a root word, e.g. 'help' + 'less' = 'helpless'. All of the other choices are prefixes which you can add to the start of a root word.
5: Which of the following is not a suffix?
You said: shun
Well done! Although 'shun' sounds like the other suffixes, it isn't a suffix because you can't add it to the end of a root word to make a new word.
6: Which suffix can you add to the root word 'cook' to make a new word?
You said: ing
Great answer! Adding the suffix 'ing' to 'cook' makes the word 'cooking'.
7: Which suffix can you add to the root word 'friend' to make a new word?
You said: ly
Good choice! Adding the suffix 'ly' to 'friend' makes the word 'friendly'.
8: Some words have a prefix (letters added to the beginning) and a suffix.
You said: true
Brilliant! The statement is true because words like 'unemployment' have both a prefix ('un') and a suffix ('ment') added to the root word 'employ'.
9: Which suffix can you add to the root word 'hope' to make a new word?
You said: less
Excellent! Adding the suffix 'less' to the root word 'hope' makes the word 'hopeless'.
10: When you add a suffix to a root word, does the root word always stay the same?
You said: no
Excellent! No is correct because sometimes the root word changes when you add a suffix. For example, when you add 'ing' to 'love', the 'e' gets dropped from the end of love to make the new word 'loving'.
QUIZ 2
Well done, you've finished the quiz.
You scored 8/10 [80.0%] so why not print out your certificate?
1: Which suffix can you not add to the root word 'love' to make a new word?
You said: ful

2: Which suffix can you not add to the root word 'confuse' to make a new word?
You said: sion
No sorry, that's not right. The right answer is 'tion'. 'Confution' isn't a proper word, but 'confusing', 'confusion' and 'confused' are.
3: Which suffix can you not add to the root word 'employ' to make a new word?
You said: less
Great answer! The suffix 'less' is the odd one out because 'employless' isn't a proper word, but 'employing', 'employment' and 'employer' are.

You said: cian
Good choice! The suffix 'cian' can be added to the root word 'electric' to make the word 'electrician'.

5: Which suffix can you add to the root word 'beauty' to make a new word?
You said: ful
Good choice! When you add the suffix 'ful' to the word 'beauty' you need to drop the 'y' and add and 'i': 'beauty' + 'ful' = 'beautiful'.

Sorry, that's wrong. The correct answer is the suffix 'ly': 'sincere' + 'ly' = 'sincerely'.
7: If you add the suffix 'ing' to the root word 'like', what is the correct spelling of the new word?
You said: liking
Excellent! You remembered that when you add a suffix which starts with a vowel like 'ing' to a root word with a silent 'e' such as 'like' you have to drop the 'e'.
8: If you add the suffix 'ly' to the root word 'like', what is the correct spelling of the new word?

2: When the suffix 'y' is added to the word 'run', what is the correct spelling?
You said: runny

You said: noisy
Well done! When you add 'y' to 'noise', the 'e' is dropped so 'noisy' is correct.

GLOSSARY
What is Industrial Engineering?
Industrial engineering can be better explained with the statement that the two focus areas of industrial engineering are human effort engineering and system efficiency engineering. These two focus areas match with Urwick’s statement 1 and 2. Industrial engineering (i) analyzes, measures, and improves the method of performing the tasks assigned to individuals, and (ii) Designs and installs better systems of integrating tasks assigned to a group (Urwick, Lyndall, F., “Development of Industrial Engineering”, Chapter 1 in Handbook of Industrial Engineering, H.B. Maynard (Ed.), 2nd Edition, McGraw Hill, New York, 1963).
It is interesting to note that the first representation to the teachers and practioners of industrial engineering was given in the name of Industrial and Efficiency Engineering Committee in 1912 in Society for Promotion of Engineering Education (S.P.E.E.). In this committee, there were three teachers and 8 practioners and Frank Gilbreth was among practioners (Gerald Thusesne, History of Development of Engineering Economic Representation in within A.S.E.E.).
System design and system efficiency design are to be distinguished by dividing system design into system functional design and system efficiency design. Engineers or managers with specialization in a function do the functional design part. An electrical power generation system is designed by electrical engineers. Industrial engineers may take up the functional design and do efficiency engineering work on it. Similarly a marketing system is designed by marketing managers, and industrial engineers may do efficiency engineering of it.
The explanation of industrial engineering as human effort engineering and system efficiency engineering brings out more clearly the scope of the IIE definition that industrial engineering is concerned with the design, improvement, and installation of integrated systems. The word engineering is associated with design and production, fabrication or construction according to designs. As explained above, system design in entirety cannot be the sole preserve of industrial engineers. The functional design of production systems in various branches of engineering can be done by engineers of that branch only. Similarly functional design of various management systems in a business organization can be done by managers of that function only. Industrial engineers have a role to play in systems design and it is of designing efficiency into the functional systems designed by others.
Maynard stated the scope of industrial engineering in his preface to the second edition of Hand Book of Industrial Engineering, edited by him in 1963. Industrial engineers have been traditionally concerned with the design of manufacturing plants, methods improvement, work measurement, the design and administration of wage payment systems, cost control, quality control, production control and the like. These procedures are all directed toward the reduction of cost. All the techniques of industrial engineering reflect the common denominator of all industrial engineering work – an intense interest in improving thing that is currently being planned or done. Cost reduction or efficiency improvement is the focus of industrial engineering. Maynard also pointed out in his preface that developments in applied mathematics and statistics during the post world war years facilitated industrial engineer to tackle design of much larger systems with more predictive power.
In 1943, the Work Standardization Committee of the Management Division of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers identified the following areas as the purview of industrial engineer: Budgets and cost control, manufacturing engineering, organization analysis, systems & procedures, and wage & salary administration. The traditional industrial engineering methods of operation analysis, motion study, work measurement, standardization of the method were included in manufacturing engineering and these techniques are relevant for hourly base wage rate determination, incentives and administration of wage payment.
The study of various functional areas in industrial engineering curriculums is for the purpose of understanding the functional designs in those areas and industrial engineering graduates should not claim expertise in those subjects to do functional design unless they really specialize in them through extra study and experience of efficiency design of many systems in the same functional area.
According to M.H. Mathewson, industrial engineering is distinguished from other engineering disciplines in that it:
1. Places increased emphasis on the integration of human being into the system.
2. Is concerned with the total system.
3. Predicts and interprets the economic results.
4. Makes greater utilization of the contribution of the social sciences than do other engineering disciplines.
Industrial Engineering as practiced today can be explained by identifying three components.
1. Human Effort Engineering
2. System Efficiency Engineering
3. Systems Design, Installation and Improvement Management.
All methods and techniques of industrial engineering can be categorized under these three major components.

introducing a friend
Her name is Silvia, she doesn't have a nickname just Silvia. She's from Maracaibo. she lives in an apartment with her mom (she love her), she's an only daughter. she's nineteen years old and she's in the 6to trimester studying Industrial Engineering at URBE.
She loves music, dance and also sing in the bathroom. Her favorite color is GREEN. One of the most thing that she Loves to do its watch TV, she can spend all the day in front of the TV watching movies, cartoons, talk shows, gossip shows… she just loves watch tv <3 . she likes read too, her favorites book is Shanghai Baby, at this moment she's reading a book called “Escuela de Frikis”. She likes travel with her friends, specially to the beach, she love the sun. She doesn’t have a lot of favorite things because she loves the excited and the constant changes, she gets bored easily.
She have a lovely relationship with a boy, they look into our heart and they found love. ♥♥♥ ...but sometimes they can't stand with him :)
She doesn’t like to wash dishes, horror movies, animals, the cold, ketchup, go to the gym, something that she really doesn’t like are SPORTS and pink color.
One of her dreams is to graduate from Engineering school and work as a successful engineer making a lot of money and start to buy and invert for her own stuffs without depend of anyone. She would like to learn about different cultures traveling around the world. she also want to get married, start a family and share the greatest moment of the life with them and her mom.
Her opinion about English it's that this one helps to communicate with anyone in the world since it is an international language. She likes to listen music, watch TV and movies in English, she say that it’s an easy and good exercise to practice it. For she it’s easier write and read than speak, she’d like to improve it.
