• Authoritative opinion from a 1993 Anders Ericsson paper suggests that although practice focusing on fixing errors may not be the most enjoyable, it is probably the most effective. • Research on practice sessions of pianists published in the Journal of Research in Music Education indicates that the best pianists put a stronger focus on immediately fixing errors so they do not occur again. Comment: The argument is fairly persuasive because, as presented, it makes good logical sense (logos = logical appeal) and basically validates my personal experiences. The results of the studies on the musicians’ practices made the argument much more credible (ethos = ethical appeal) and convincing to me. In fact, I would have liked hearing about the studies in more detail.
Plus the fact that it was written in an newspaper, The Times, also backs up to question the reliability, giving only a one-sided viewpoint. Source D is similar in its bias typical viewpoint as it is taken from a Manchester Magistrate, the view is also ironic as it states the magistrate aim is “for the preservation of peace” but felt the force of the Yeomanry and military force was necessary. Source E is mutually an authentic account from John Chadwick a shoemaker, which can be implied that the account is more reliable than A and C as it is possibly less bias and more of a
Gibbons and Krohn (1991:313) observed, "For one thing, the recommendation that community services be coordinated by the bureau assumed that there was a wealth of services to be coordinated when, in fact, the lack of such agencies and services had been an impediment to successful juvenile court work." It should not be surprising, therefore, that conflicting expectations, findings, and conclusions would emerge from such a widespread, disjointed, and complicated social experiment. Although many studies show that diversion programs are successful in reducing subsequent deviance, these studies are balanced by studies that find no impact. In certain cases, diversion programs were found to have detrimental properties (Polk, 1995). Research Proponents of diversion, however, cite studies such as one in Colorado that involved comparisons between an experimental group of diverted youth and a control group who received regular handling by the juvenile justice system.
Moderate reform played a small part in keeping power in the hands of the Kaiser but its limited scope together with the lack of any real success show that it may have been other factors that kept power in the hands of the Kaiser. This is clearly shown in the lack of substance inherent in Bulow’s and Hollweg’s reforms to placate the socialists together with the failure of Hollweg’s reforms to reform the constitution. On the surface it would appear that Bulow’s reforms to solve the socialist threat show that it was actually reform that maintained power in the hands of the Kaiser, these include the laws to extend accident insurance, to give longer and more generous hours to workers in poor health and those to reduce the amount of factory work. In actual fact, the introduction of a tariff law in
It's clear to see that Lord Liverpool's government between the years 1822 and 1827 was not in fact liberal, it was just the fact that the measures he took and the laws he passed merely seemed liberal to the general public, therefore he gained a good reputation from British citizens in the sense that a lot of the laws he passed such as the Gaols act were initially seen as liberal because of the fact that now female prisoners were guarded by female guards for the first time, however there were a few drawbacks to Peel's ideas which make it hard to view these reforms as entirely liberal. I believe that Liverpool had a good idea and good intentions to make the British economy become more stable after a poor economic situation, he also wanted to make the country more liberal in the sense that there will be more freedom and equality, however the way in which the laws and reforms were carried out were not necessarily as liberal as Liverpool had hoped. The Penal reform acts that Liverpool passed were initially seen as liberal, however it is possible to argue that there are several different limitations and factors that prove it to be not necessarily liberal. Initially, the idea of a reduction of transportable offences under the Gaols act, and also the reduction of the number of crimes punishable by death from around 200 to 20 makes Liverpool's government seem liberal due to the fact that it is giving the people of Great Britain more freedom and shows that the toleration across Britain is a lot more than it used to be. This Gaols act however was not necessarily new, as some people believe that it was based on campaigning from Fry and Howard several years before.
This clearly presents pre 1929 the Nazi party was not sufficient enough, as a foundation for the party was non-existent. Compared to other groups in Germany at the time, the SPD gained 26% in the December 1924 election, compared to, the Nazi which gained just 3%. This was mainly due to the lack of organisational structure, where the SPD geographical distribution and social structure was organised the Nazis were complete differing, this was shown in the 1924 electoral. Due to lack of organisation it could be argued to say the Nazis were weak before 1929. Historian use the failure of the putsch to prove Nazi party as weak before 1929.
Increased police, probation officers and social workers contact proved most effective at gun control. Research has shown law enforcement programs to be more effective than gun laws. In this case, the most efficient programs combined both supportive and punitive strategies to reduce gun violence. Buyback programs have been shown to be even less effective than laws. This clearly shows that the most effective methods involve ‘old-school’ police work where the police department, probation officers and social workers join efforts at identifying and targeting the biggest threats.
There are some other minor changes that could be made to the article but other than these, the article is fine. In Gregory’s article Long Division the topic of corruption in the Eastmoor housing district is one of the main arguments being made. This argument was supported by shocking evidence of the run down state of the housing complex and the misuse of the government subsidies that were supposed to be used to uphold to conditions of the complex. Although the article shows how these housing districts were initially built with a good purpose, the article shows the surprising truth that even the most honest of intentions can be
Although the stated aim of the "resocialisation" programme was to improve the integration of Aboriginal people into modern society, a study conducted in Melbourne and cited in the official report found that there was no notable improvement in the social position of "removed" Aborigines as compared to "non-removed", particularly in the areas of employment and post-secondary education. Most notably, the study indicated that removed Aboriginal people were actually less likely to have completed a secondary education, three times as likely to have acquired a police record and were twice as likely to use illegal drugs. The only notable advantage "removed" Aboriginal people possessed was a higher average income, which the report noted was most likely due to the increased urbanisation of removed individuals, and hence greater access to welfare payments than for Aboriginal people living in tribal communities. The removal of the children show hardly any effect today, and shouldn't have
In this study the performance of 23 regional police agencies in Taiwan were tested for their efficiency. The study found that many agencies within a high population density presented administrative inefficiency. Lower population density agencies were also found to have administrative inefficiencies, but not to the extent as the higher population density agencies. This result implies that the manner in which scarce resources are allocated will lead to the differences among the regions, especially when there is a limited budget (Hu, 2011). If the government were to try to influence the people to vote for regional law enforcement, it would never pass.
