Reference excerpt

The Golden Collar Awards reward the best canine actors. The trophies are delivered during a ceremony, similar to other ceremonies in the cinema industry.

History The Golden Collar Awards were created in 2012 by the website Dog News Daily, a commercial website dedicated to the products for dogs that has been created in 2009. The first Golden Collar Awards rolled out the red carpet for the dogs on 13 February 2012 in a luxury hotel, the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza in Los Angeles, in front of an audience composed of the press. The trophy was created by designer Simon Tavassoli: it consists of a statue that represents an Italian Leather Collar with embedded shiny Swarovski crystals. Some criticism has been expressed that the awards were only launched a couple of months prior, due to the attention the dog Uggie was getting for his performance in The Artist.

Categories The dogs and their owners or trainers concur in five catégories:

Best Dog in a Theatrical Film Best Dog in a Foreign Film Best Dog in a Television Series Best Dog in a Reality Television Series Best Dog in a Direct-To-DVD Film An honorary prize rewards the "humanitarian" (animal protection) or the "legends" of the dogs on the screen:

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Golden Collar Awards

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Golden Collar Awards claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Golden Collar Awards before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Golden Collar Awards ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Golden Collar Awards

In research: Golden Collar Awards appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Golden Collar Awards in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Golden Collar Awards is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics American film award stubs, American film awards, American television awards, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Golden Collar Awards outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
