Topic: How to Develop Strong Thesis Writing Skills: ievement. The ability to convey ideas and to describe something convincingly serves a writer well in any kind of document. There are certain organizing strategies, which can help to organize thinking and to put one's ideas easy to follow and clear in understanding (Wilson, 2006). Almost every assignment, no matter how complex, can be reduced to a solitary question. Your initial step, then, is to condense the assignment into a precise question. For instance, if your assignment is, “Write an account to the local school board explaining the possible benefits of using computers in a fourth-grade group,” turn the demand into a query like, “What are the probable advantages of exercising computers in a fourth-grade class?” After you’ve selected the question your thesis will respond, make up one or two entire sentences responding that query. To improve the writing skills is to recognize the standard writing structures in English. Writing is a sophisticated art and to convey your idea and thoughts to other it is necessary to follow certain rules and standards. These standards include grammar, the overall structure of writing, paragraphing and coherence. Grammar is perhaps the most important and essential factor behind any document, a correct, clear and simple grammar not only necessary but also makes the document easy to understand for the readers. It is important that a writer should be well equipped with English grammar and sentence structuring. To define the general topic, issue, or area of concern, thus providing an appropriate context of the document. Pointing out overall trends is what outlining is, this process basically covers the basic structure of any written material. Outlining comprises of three parts, the introduction, body and conclusion (Wilson, 2006). The Introduction present relevant background or contextual material, it defines terns or concepts and explains the focus of the paper and its specific purpose. The body provides the reader with strong "umbrella" sentences, the preciseness of a paper or document is determined from the insights put in the body. The conclusion sums up the meaning of the piece or points, it gives a reader clear perspective on what they have just read. The most important thing to remember is that your job as a writer is to convince people in a coherent way about an issue. A writer must describe the subject of the essay/article/paper in some detail according to he/she thinks the reader should know. In case of an essay or a paper a writer must assert himself by making a definitive judgement. This judgement ought to be the author's thesis sentence. The other entire paragraph should seek to prove the thesis. A thesis statement tells us readers how the author will interpret the significance of the subject matter under discussion. Such a statement is called an argument, or the main idea. Observe that a thesis is an explanation of a subject not the subject matter itself (Wilson, 2006). The Subject might be 'gun control' or 'Attack on Iraq'; a thesis must then offer a way to understand the war or an issue that other might dispute. A strong thesis not only grasps the interest of the reader, it also provides the focus of your argument, one to which every part of your paper refers in the development of your position.

Topic: 02/14/11 - The Day IBM's Watson Tapped Out the Boolean Cash Cow: ssion forever as the Boolean Cash Cow was abruptly tapped out and fell over dead. Let me explain... If you tuned into Jeopardy! during the early evening hours, you watched as IBM's SuperComputer named "Watson" blew away Brad Rutter, Jeopardy!'s all-time biggest money winner, along with Ken Jennings, the show's record holder for longest championship streak. The formidable tandem stood no chance against Watson, which ended the game with $35,734 compared to Rutter's $10,400 and Jennings' $4,800. Here's the significance - Watson is a question-answering (i.e. "QA") computing system that, in the words of IBM, is "an application of advanced Natural Language Processing, Information Retrieval, Knowledge Representation and Reasoning, and Machine Learning technologies to the field of open domain question answering" which is built on IBM's DeepQA technology for hypothesis generation, massive evidence gathering, analysis, and scoring." If your eyes haven't yet glazed over and you're more interested, check out the latest TED Talk here. In layman's terms, this is what it comes down to: Watson took questions in Jeopardy! and parsed the keywords in the clue while looking for related terms as responses. Catch the operative word? It's related. Identifying related terms and concepts is something that pure Boolean searches cannot do - after all, Boolean searching is about looking for specific keywords (i.e. those included within the string itself). Further, the ability to identify related terms and concepts is akin to Semantic Search, which seeks to improve search accuracy by understanding searcher intent and the contextual meaning of terms as they appear in the searchable dataspace, whether on the Web or within a closed system, to generate more relevant results. Here's where I'm going: Tools that leverage technologies such as PureDiscovery or IBM's DeepQA allow a Sourcer to move beyond basic keyword searching via a cryptic query such as those we've been taught to utilize today. Not only do these technologies make searching more natural and conversational, they also allow Organizations to hire Sourcers who don't need to know all the ins & outs of a related industry from a research perspective. As an example, only an experienced Forensic DNA Sourcer may know related terms that would show up in a resume, such as Mitochondria, mtDNA, Y-STR, CODIS, etc. However, Watson technology would immediately draw the linkage. This means the Sourcer will be able to spend more time proactively pooling talent through Social Media channels (you know, the "fun stuff" that involves actual human contact) and less time doing pure research. In the past, I've written about whether the Sourcing market would evolve; whether we'd allow it to. My concern has been that Boolean training is a tremendous Cash Cow, so innovation has been naturally resisted when it comes to searching. However, I think 02/14/11 was the day that Watson tapped out the Boolean Cash Cow for good. This means that we won't have to put up with mindless brainwashing that technologies like Semantic Search will never work for Candidate identification, or worse, ridiculous videos of supposed Academic Gurus suggesting that Watson is somehow dumber than a cockroach. Because if Watson is... that's certainly not good news for the rest of us! So let's all observe a brief moment of silence for the Boolean Cash Cow that has been grazing through the fields of Corporate America for a decade now. Done? Great. Because all the grass has been eaten (hence the contraction of Boolean training to begin with), and with Watson's domination on Jeopardy!, the jig is finally up. Thanks, IBM!!! P.S. Not only will Watson mark a consilience in thinking within our space when it comes to Candidate searching and identification, but IBM has much bigger plans.
