    The document discusses the history of prosthetic limbs from ancient times to the 19th century. It notes that early prosthetics were basic wooden extensions but became more advanced over time as new materials like steel were used. In the 19th century, mechanics like Pieter Verduyn created the first below-knee prosthesis blueprint and James Potts designed an articulating foot prosthesis using tendons, improving function. The history shows prosthetics evolving from basic extensions to more complex artificial limbs as materials and designs improved.

    Grade Essay

    Writing an essay on the topic "Grade Essay" can prove to be a challenging task, as it requires a
    comprehensive understanding of grading systems, educational philosophies, and the intricacies
    involved in evaluating academic performance. This topic demands a nuanced exploration of the
    various criteria used in grading, the impact of grades on students' motivation and learning outcomes,
    and the potential biases that may exist within grading systems.

    To start, one must delve into the historical context of grading, examining how it has evolved over
    time and its role in the education system. Exploring different grading methods and their implications
    is essential to providing a well-rounded analysis. Additionally, discussing the psychological aspects
    of grades, such as their influence on students' self-esteem and academic aspirations, adds depth to the
    essay.

    Moreover, addressing the controversies surrounding grading systems, including debates on


    standardization, subjectivity, and the potential for discrimination, requires a careful examination of
    both sides of the argument. Integrating relevant research studies, educational theories, and real-world
    examples further enhances the essay's credibility.

    Crafting a coherent and persuasive argument also involves addressing potential counterarguments
    and presenting a balanced view. This requires critical thinking and a thorough examination of the
    literature on the topic. Striking the right balance between personal opinions and evidence-based
    arguments is crucial for a well-rounded essay.

    The difficulty intensifies when attempting to synthesize diverse perspectives on grading, considering
    the opinions of educators, students, and policymakers. It requires an ability to navigate through
    conflicting viewpoints and draw insightful conclusions that contribute to the ongoing discourse on
    grading practices.

    In conclusion, tackling an essay on the topic "Grade Essay" demands a high level of research, critical
    thinking, and the ability to present a cohesive argument. The complexity lies not only in
    understanding the technicalities of grading systems but also in exploring their broader implications

    Panem Dystopian Society
    Usually in a utopian society the concept of it being an ideally perfect place is shared
    by all members of the society. In Panem s case, only the rich and those in government
    power can really believe that Panem is an ideal society. As shown throughout the book,
    most citizens that live among the districts oppress the lifestyle that they have.
    Therefore, Panem can t possibly be a utopian society; Actually, it is more of a
    DYSTOPIAN society. Hence, Panem is outright a dystopian society because of the
    composition of social classes and the outright brutality the Hunger Games brings to the
    city year after year. A critical reason why Panem is a dystopian society is the broken
    structure of social classes. Specifically the lack of nourishment the districts
    The History of the Prosthetic Limbs
    reduce in the functionality of the prosthetic limbs, it also meant that the cost of prosthetic
    limbs was reduced. The reduction in the cost meant that almost everyone was now able to
    afford the price of a prosthetic limb, and it was no longer a privileged thing for the rich
    and powerful, though the prosthetic limbs of the rich and powerful were constructed
    primarily using more advanced materials. In the 19th century, further improvement were
    made onto the advanced prosthetic limbs that helped shape how prosthetic limbs should
    be manufactured, and the functionality it should be able to perform. Pieter Verduyn, a
    mechanic at the time, created the first non locking below knee prosthesis, which would
    soon be the blueprint for all other joint and corset devices. Following in the footsteps of
    Verduyn and his blueprints, James Potts managed to designed a prosthetic leg which
    included an articulating foot that was controlled by catgut tendons primarily from the
    knee to the ankle. In addition to the articulating foot, the prosthetic limb design include
    a steel knee joint and was constructed using a wooden shank and socket. Potts s design
    would later be recognized as the Anglesey Leg after it was used by Marquis of Anglesey
    after the great battle of Waterloo. The Anglesey Leg designed by James Potts had the
    functionality that prosthetic limbs should have, but it lacked the natural movement and
    the natural look of a leg. In order to resolve this minor problem, Dr Benjamin F.
