Compton says the film is a surprise hit among high school teachers, who see in it a clear message for students: Work harder. After Sue Reynolds saw it in November, she ordered 210 copies. "The film's very compelling because you've got the data, you've got experts that are very compelling, and you also see with your own eyes what's happening in classrooms and homes in other countries," says Reynolds, executive director of the American Student Achievement Institute, a non-profit based in Columbus,
By also using effective analogies and specific sentence placements, she commands the argument between her and the opposing research. Ferguson’s article uses the three classic rhetorical appeals to her advantage. Logos is efficiently utilized when she describes how schools now approximately have one million computers of which 93 percent are on-line (Ferguson, 2005, p.195). This shocking statistic sways the audience to believe that the sheer ubiquity of computers distract children from studies. Ferguson follows up with pathos by characterizing fifteen-year-old student Colin Johnson with: “the tenth grader is failing science” (196).
In the documentary, “A Class Divided” filmed in 1970, a third grade teacher in Iowa named Jane Elliot did something that I felt was so amazing, during a time period that most might consider risky. She divided her class by the color of their eyes and came up with very clever ways to make them feel discriminated against. Watching the short film, about how she taught her class the lesson of discrimination, which was prompted by the death of Martin Luther King, is just fascinating! At first I was writing down everything I could to be able to reference my notes later, to write this paper. Suddenly I just stopped writing and really got into the lesson as though I was in the classroom with them.
Alissa Ringeisen First-Year Writing Fairbanks 8 October 2012 Lives on the Boundary: Mike Rose In Lives on the Boundary, Mike Rose is observing a teacher, Dr. Gunner, in the English A course at UCLA. Many other professors and students call this course the “Bonehead” course because it is the lowest English course offered at UCLA. This course was designed for the slow, or remedial learners, the ones that were considered “marginal”. Dr. Gunner, however, saw potential for these students. She challenged her students to show their intelligence.
He found truly professional teachers, sometimes under seemingly impossible conditions, demonstrating what is possible for all of America's young people. Rose is a tourist, artist like Rivera, and like Rivera his mural is not a romantic notion of the workers he observes. Rose is Rivera painting the workers and their workings in the context of their work. He provides a rich landscape so that his readers see and understand what happens in classrooms in the context of their communities and the hardships that involve the political realities of schooling in
Critique of “Will Your Jobs Be Exported” by Alan S. Blinder Starting in elementary school teacher’s begin to prepare you for standardize testing. You learn all this material, and test on it, learn the material… and the cycle continues. Kids who cannot test well drop out or fail and are looked down on by society , kids who succeed pass and continue on and are praised, the question is does that particular style of learning come in handy when all the American people jobs are being exported. According to an article in The Atlantic news paper “53% of recent college graduates are jobless or unemployed” so in the end are we not all equal? When all the jobs of the future go to personal service jobs, will American children only know how to test or fail or to invest all their time into schooling for professions that will not pay?
Yes, you heard me, zeros. Plenty of students that are struggling with their grades are intelligent and hard working. They get high grades on tests, class work, homework, etc., but those dang zeros significantly hurt their overall grade. I know I have had my fair share of zeros in the past and I don’t see this stopping for me anytime soon in the future. So I make this proposal, a modest proposal.
Lombardi and reporter Kristin Jones spent a year surveying schools’ and students’ on campus rape cases. Their conclusion from the survey was that campus sexual assault remains a hidden crime, in part, because there is no central clearinghouse for colleges to report cases and to record their dispositions. Ombardi claims more legislation is needed and that current ones need to be amended. Kristen Lombardi is a staff writer and an award-winning journalist from the Center for Public Integrity. Her investigation into campus rape cases for the Center won the Robert F. Kennedy Award and the Dart Award in 2011, which state her survey a recent source and very valuable.
For instance, Mr. Alexander was so thrilled a students’ newfound understanding of a problem that with a burst of excitement he punched his fist through his classroom window. His undying passion for math persuaded me to create the same amount of passion for it also―with less pain, but as time has passed this passion has faded along with my math smarts. “Courtney, I wish I could marry your brain!” was a declaration spoken from the mouth of a genius of a math teacher, Mr. Alexander, that came charging back into my memory in the third quarter of my AP Geometry class as I sat dumbfounded by the lack of knowledge I was apprehending from my then teacher, Mrs. Shackelford. By this time math had become my worst enemy and I hated it with a passion. Sorry about the negative diction I am professing towards math, but the truth is that I lost my love for it year’s ago―with the help of horrible instructors.
