10 Examples of Expansion

The extension It is a type of discursive resource that is used to provide the public with more information for the understanding of the topic addressed. The more complex and precise your theme, the greater the need to expand the arguments and points of view offered by the reader. For example: To learn more about the past, present and future of this country, it is recommended to read the book Brief contemporary history of Argentinaby Jose Luis Romero.

The extension resource is used in order to satisfy the curiosity of the receiving public, as well as provide ways to continue through the subject and so that it can update the research at any time that it is read.

Discursive resources are tools that allow a message to be organized so that it has its own style and is endowed with coherence. In addition to expansion, the most important procedures are analogy, citation, exemplification, questioning, definition, and cumulative enumeration.

Magnification Examples

  1. The Undersecretary of Financial Services together with the National Insurance Superintendence (SSN) launched, in 2021, the Microinsurance Working Group (GTMS), which involves public and private market actors, with the aim of promoting tools financial institutions to help reduce the social and economic inequality gap in Argentina through the development of microinsurance.
    To learn more about this topic, we invite you to download the first microinsurance report prepared by the GTMS, which portrays the status of microinsurance and inclusive insurance in the country and analyzes the different opportunities and challenges for the development of this service. financial.
  2. Procrear II offers solutions that meet the diversity of housing demands, from a public policy of urban developments and new public spaces and infrastructure that allow better connectivity. Together with the National Urban Land Plan, it promotes the generation of quality urban land for housing construction and city planning. In addition, it reinforces its commitment to social inclusion from an extension of rights and incorporates environmental sustainability criteria in terms of saving essential resources.

  3. General questions seek the information necessary for the description of the case. It is especially helpful and reassuring for the inexperienced investigator to have an overview of the most important, even minor, issues that require attention.
    The following is a real example of a general outline of issues. Mathematics educator Doulgas McLeod prepared the table below for a case study on the development of the NCTM Levels (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, 1898).
  4. The question of how far to use audio and even video tapes is raised regularly. The latter are fantastic records that the investigator can analyze (with a lot of effort) for overall interpretation, but the tapes are of little use in preparing most reports. In addition, a videotape segment can be used to complete presentations, consultations, or oral instructions.
  5. The same nuances are found again, evidently, in other arts. A fugue or a sonata are, without any doubt, musical works and their species are identifiable with total certainty; a “symphonic poem” as Mazeppa by Liszt or a “dramatic symphony” like Romeo and Juliet de Berlioz are necessarily musical works, but it is a little more difficult to define such works in terms of species: “I don’t know if it is a symphonic poem, but I clearly hear that it is a musical work.” In the same way, a portrait or a still life are necessarily pictorial works, a history painting or a genre scene equally so, but it is not always easy, nor useful, to decide if such a painting is a genre scene or a scene from history.
  6. The most well-known and typical Arab empanadas are meat or cheese empanadas. On this occasion, we have tried the Arab meat empanadas, but after the success they have had, we are waiting for the cheese ones. Thanks to the marinade of the meat, they have a spectacular contrast of flavors, but without a doubt, what makes them more special are the lemon drops with which we accompany them to taste them. If you have never tried them, dare with them, because it is an original, different dish and one of those that is worth making from time to time.
    To prepare the original recipe for Arab empanadas or fatay, we must carry out two preparations. On the one hand, the filling of the empanadas and, on the other, the dough. Next, we will see these two stages of the recipe as well as the necessary steps for the final assembly of the empanadas.
  7. Applying for a credit or debit card requires meeting a series of conditions and requirements, but it is usually a simple process. Once our request to obtain our debit or credit card is approved – only credit cards are usually linked to a scoring process -, we will receive our physical card at the address after between 3-4 days, generally. Now, if you already have your card, do you know how to activate it to start using it? Next we will see the steps to activate the bank card that, although they are not unified for all entities, are usually quite similar.
  8. Paleontologists have discovered the oldest belly button known to science in a 125-million-year-old fossil of a dinosaur in the genus Psittacosaurus. And the fossil also had the first year of a dinosaur ever found. As Live Science reports, the Psittacosaurus lived during the Cretaceous period, between 145 and 66 million years ago, and scientists discovered this belly button after exposing the fossil to a concentrated beam of laser light. To learn more about dinosaurs, take a look at how the Tyrannosaurus Rex may have actually been three different dinosaurs.
  9. Last Tuesday, June 22, Weitz stated that “the presence of clays indicates a favorable environment for life because clays form and remain stable in neutral pH conditions where water persists in the long term, which minimizes evaporation to form other minerals such as sulfates. This is how it was discovered that in the Ladon Basin region, within Margaritifer Terra, there was a “long history of water flow.” For the scientist, this water flow began relatively early on the red planet, “around 3.8 billion years ago and continued until 2.5 billion years ago, which is considered relatively recent.” In addition, the colors of these sediments were taken into account. According to the publication, the layers are clear and therefore “show relatively low bed dips and contain clays for a distance of 200 kilometers.”
  10. Rodolfo Andragnes, president of the NGO Bitcoin Argentina, explains that “in our world” this phrase in English is a mantra that reveals that if you leave your Bitcoins to others, they are no longer your Bitcoins, even if the law could protect you. Technically and empirically someone else already has them. And although having the Bitcoin yourself is very simple, not everyone does it for various reasons. The first is comfort, not learning to have them yourself or having two or more wallets, that of the various providers and your own, or the convenience of being able to sell them quickly whenever you want, or exchange them for other assets, etc. .
    In other cases, sometimes in these or other platforms it is allowed to obtain an income by leaving them as collateral for a loan or to operate leveraged in the market and aspire to multiply my profits in operations or even buy derivatives and futures.
