In Winning Hearts and Minds in the War on Plagiarism” Jaschik essay was based more on reflection and personal opinions because his were on different studies by different professors on the "war on plaguarism" among students and how common plagiarizing is and the different methods used to change that. Mr. Murray begins by discusses Peter F. Drucker method of a "zero draft" and how the writer should begin counting drafts after the first draft is complete. He explains how many writers feel, that after the first draft is completed it then can be edited to say what is exactly meant. Murray explains how we need to be critical readers and when editing.

Underreporting occurs due to individuals being dishonest regarding their behavior, therefore causing an error in the research done. A possible solution to this limitation is focusing on observed behavior, and correlating the findings with the self-reporting behavior, therefore developing a conclusion that is more in-depth. Furthermore, Article 2 emphasized that other factors can influence self-labeling as a victim in relation to work-place bullying, not just anxiety and anger. In addition, discovering a moderation effect regarding negative acts of violence and self-labeling is hard to discover due to the psychological way an individual may experience an event. Lastly, Article 3 honed on the lack of variances of deviant behavior.
He says that much of this difficulty can be attributed to professors and the way that writing is taught to students, especially individuals who are newly entering the college setting (11). According to Bartholomae, students struggle with adapting to academic discourse and using the commonplaces of the discourse because they must be able to place themselves within the discourse rather than just imitating it, which is a hard thing to learn and an even harder thing to put into practice when most students have no previous experience with the discourse of academics
(This name was redundant, since assessment means test.) | The SAT I measures verbal and math reasoning abilities that one developed throughout their school years. The multiple-choice test, developed by the not-for-profit Educational testing Service students demonstrate their verbal and math abilities without regard to the kind of schooling they've had. According to the College Board, the test looks for a student's ability to understand and analyze written material, to draw inferences, to differentiate shades of meaning, to draw conclusions and solve
Final exams are a time of stress for students to worry about if they can recall all the lessons that their professors have went over within that semester. Students who are scarcely passing any of their classes need their final exams to be passing grades, so they tend to study a little harder. Finals also allow students to see how all the lessons they have learned connect through small facts. Identifying and understanding thoroughly everything the professor particularly emphasizes in class can be a hard and tough experience when preparing to study for finals. In Joy Alonso’s “Two Cheers for Examination “she uses examinations to examine the purposes and useless of exams in two and four year colleges to appear to students and teachers.
Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing is somewhat controversial but also supported by clinical trial data” (Kelly, 2006). CBT is a treatment which involves changing the thinking patterns of the patient to improve symptoms. Cognitive behavioral therapy shows patients to react differently to the circumstances and bodily sensations that trigger panic attacks and other anxiety symptoms.

Amy Miller English 1022 Marty Sharp January 31, 2011 Steps for Academic Writing It is somewhat difficult, it is somewhat frustrating, and somewhat a challenge. No, it is not dating, it is academic writing. According to Chris Thaiss and Terry Zawacki, who wrote Engaged Writers, Dynamic Disciplines: Research on the Academic Writing Life, defined academic writing broadly as “any writing that fulfills a purpose of education in a college or university in the United States (Thaiss and Zawacki 4).” Academic writing is everywhere a college student can look; history books, journals, research papers, and other entries where sources are listed. Writing a strong academic paper takes a hefty amount of time and effort. The opening sentence in the introduction
Now I have understood that They Say/I Say is a really book about academic writing used in many American universities and no non-American universities use it. My experience with sections of They Say/I Say shows that it is useful for Pavlodar students who want to learn more about academic writing, because it has a complicated structure of sentences which help students to guess what academic writing is and how to write it. To make the book more useful, I would like to advise to add explanations for unknown names of TV shows, books and video games, because some of our students, sometimes none of them know these games and TV shows. At the end, I would like to tell one more “Thank

English 10 Psychology professor at Clark University, Wendy Grolnick, and Santa Monica based writer, Kathy Seal, are coauthors of a newspaper article titled “Shortchanged by pay to learn”. In their article, the authors demonstrate their disbelief in the effectiveness of extrinsic motivation on students and argue that intrinsic motivation leads to better academic achievements on students. In fact, the authors state that “those who want to improve test scores and motivate students should stop throwing money at the problem so literally.” The authors directly state their beliefs on the matter, and frankly, I agree that school districts should promote the building of intrinsic motivation on students. I believe schools should encourage the building of intrinsic motivation on students because it has shown that students that participate in programs that build on intrinsic motivation do better in school than those students who do not. In the article “Shortchanged by pay to learn” co-authors Grolnick and Seal indicate that intrinsic motivation is a good alternative to improve student test scores.
