the things other people own. To be responsible you need to be able to get everything needed to be done, done in a timely manner. It applies to everyday life by making sure you have any work or school projects done, taking care of animals and others, your own things, and yourself. It applies to school work by you making sure that all homework, projects, and extracurricular activities are done. One of the most important things needed in organization is to prioritize your work.

The book “Women: Images and Realities a Multicultural Anthology,” by Suzanne Kelly, has many impactful essays, poems, and stories. The essay which I found to be the signal most impactful essay is entitled “ Fence Sitters, Switch Hitters, and Bi-Bi Girls: An Exploration of Hapa and Bisexual Identities,” by Beverly Yuen Thompson. Thompson, a biracial woman of Asian and Anglo heritage wrote this essay in 2000. In the essay Thompson addresses several aspects of her identity but the part of the essay
Assessment “Children do not always learn what we teach. This is why the most meaningful assessment does not happen at the end of learning- it happens during the learning when there is still time to do something with the information” ( Wiliam, 2011). To me, this quote reflects a big part of the meaning of assessment. Assessment is the process involving measuring the learning and performance of students or teachers. It involves documenting, usually in measurable terms, knowledge, skills, attitudes
Students should be allowed to help decide which artifacts to include and know why they are wanting to include the particular artifacts. Portfolios can be used for parent-teacher conferences and can show growth from the beginning of the school year to the end of the school year or even shorter time frames. Portfolios also promote active student learning (“Portfolios for Student,” n.d.). There are many software applications available for teachers to use. One example is Super Data Tracker. It allows
This theory is split into three waves General Systems Theory, Ecosystems and Complex Systems Theory. The first wave, general systems theory has a biological perspective, in the way it stemmed from the Biological systems theory and uses biological terminology to explain the social world. The core concepts of this theory are derived from the biological systems theory including homeostasis, entropy, Equifinality and transactions. This theory suggests that we aim Homeostasis which is the balance between
this is not a good view early in the morning. That’s why the school should implement a uniform policy. Uniforms should be mandatory in school. Uniforms make the school appear more professional. Also with uniforms students won’t compare themselves with each other. Moreover uniforms can help students save time. Additionally parents won’t have to waste so much money on clothes hence will have a better budget. A major reason that schools should have uniforms is because students will get along better
The conflict between school uniform or no school uniform can be traced back many of years. Some people can see the pros and cons to both while others are completely one sided. In the first article Why You Should Vote NO to School Uniforms in Elementary Schools by Diana E Butler, she is clearly one sided, she believes school uniforms should never be allowed to be worn in school. While in the second article School Uniform Pros and Cons by Rashida Khilawala, this author is Switzerland. She finds the
Article 1 The article “CTV News anchor Paul Bliss suspended following sexual misconduct allegations” discusses, how “an award-winning CTV reporter and anchor, has been suspended pending an investigation into allegations made Friday by a former network employee of sexual misconduct more than a decade ago.” (Isai, 2018) The article also discusses how Bridget Brown decided to publish the news and why she finally decided to come out it after 12 years of being silent about it.

DNA Analysis Introduction When the forensic anthropologists gave the DNA Analyser their findings, there was a problem. The police gave the DNA Analyser all of the missing people in the St. Charles area within the past year and they matched the persons up with results from the forensic anthropologists. It appeared that there were two missing persons who had fit the description of an African-American woman that's in between the ages of 25 and 30 with a height range of 5 feet 0.9 inches to 5 feet and
A Lexile level is a number given to a student based on their ability to read a passage fluently. For each grade level there is an average Lexile level that a student should be at. For example the average Lexile level for a 2nd grader is between 140L-500L. Teachers use student’s Lexile levels for many things in the classroom. They use it to make tests and quizzes that meet their student’s reading and comprehension ability. The state uses student’s Lexile levels to determine what form of standardized

evaluate themselves by what they are on the inside instead of what they're wearing on the outside, then our public schools should be able to require their students to wear uniforms." Former President Clinton said this in a speech in in March of 1996. There is an immense controversy about whether a school uniform will help or hinder a student. After much deliberation and inquiry, public schools should be allowed to enforce their students to wear uniforms. The largest part of the debate is whether or not
Beliefs Reflection Motivation is one of the biggest things when it comes to education today. Every student can be motivated one way or another to learn. Not all students are motivated the same so as an educator I need to keep that in mind. Motivation is important because it helps students become interested in what is going on in the class room and in the course work. When a student is motivated it also may have the student participate in more challenging opportunities and try to earn higher bench
Curriculum and instruction is impacted by assessment, and whether in the design, delivery or data interpretation processes, aligning these apparatuses is most challenging part of being a teacher. Teachers are called to exercise an alignment between assessment and curriculum, use assessment to guide instruction, and deliver assessment that truly evaluates achievement. Two forms of assessment used in the classroom, formative and summative possess important components, that track them into purposeful
more than 20 years, formative assessment has been highly researched and even accredited as a critical part of a teacher’s pedagogy. In the last decade it (formative assessment has become something of a buzzword and in some cases a mandate in k-12 schools across the country. Formative assessment can be defined as a part of the instructional process intended to gather information and provide feedback for both students and teachers that allow for needed
understand or accept the idea, and consequentially did not have an appropriate way of talking about it. Over the years, as various cultures identified and even implemented practices currently associated with homosexuality, there arose a need for common terminology. Until the eighteenth century, it was referred to through the practices and stereotypes for which its participants were known, and not for the orientation, itself. "Sodomites and Fops" were two common ways of referring to homosexuals, and for the
parents and peers. A student’s voice can be their values, their interests, and their perspectives of the world in which they live. Their voice can be their critical questioning of the many situations they face, whether in a text, the school cafeteria, or a park after school. It is the job of an English teacher to aid in finding this voice through their writing. It is by putting words and thoughts down on paper that a student can sometimes feel comfortable enough to take risks and find their true voices
translate the Constitution at all in making their influential mark on the citizens of the United States. Ronald Dworkin, on the other hand holds a different perspective of this situation. He tends to believe that although the technical terminology of abortion was not stated in the Constitution, the simple right of privacy, which in his mentality, deals with termination of a pregnancy. Some critics of the decision regarding Roe v Wade feel that the court is, in a sense, legalizing
in our history classes that slavery existed and all about it, but for some reason this letter really struck me as real. It really shows how the slave world worked. The trading and buying of other human beings is so casually talked about. The terminology for the slaves is also a very telling part of the letter. The word Negro and dispose of are nothing that we would ever say today. To hear “the Negro of whom I wish to dispose” would be totally unheard of and inappropriate today. The differences
Now that we have seen the pros of TMs, we can continue on with some of the disadvantages of this translation technology. • First and foremost, TMs change the translator´s cognitive process as reported by Mossop (2006, 790), Biau Gil and Pym (2006, 9), and Pym (2011, 1). This change in the mental process is confirmed by studies carried by Christensen and Schjoldager (2011, 124), Dragsted (2006, 460), and LeBlanc´s (2013, 7) collected testimonials from professional translators. The change in the
