Recommended Course of Action:

For instance, a group of heavenly physiques such as the Big Dipper takes a particular form: it chooses, draws together, marks out, and covers ...

The approach to learning places more emphasis on the constructive process of learning needed to increase the intellectual imagination as well as the social ...
