The research has been done on zero tolerance in the home but not extensively in the school. Based on the results of the research finding on zero tolerance in the home in regards to parenting the approach conflicts with the developmental needs of adolescences. This approached mirrored what was taking place in the Breakfast Club. The group leader/principal had no desire to truly hear what the teen had to say in response to his assignment. He only wanted them do as he said without feedback.
However, they tend to interfere with school, are highly routinized, have no room for personal growth, creativity, initiative, and no entrepreneurship opportunities. Which is something people definitely need to learn at a young age. He also states that they tend to accustom teens to pursue stuff that pays off instantly as opposed to teaching them to making long-term goals and working to achieve such goals. “McDonald’s is bad for your kids.” This short, but impacting sentence opens up Etzioni’s essay, and describes as a whole what he is trying to say throughout the whole piece. He isn’t speaking about the food affecting children’s health, however.
Ferguson follows up with pathos by characterizing fifteen-year-old student Colin Johnson with: “the tenth grader is failing science” (196). The use of pathos here induces anger towards computer use by displaying the student’s inability to pass an elementary course. Even her primary evidence relies on ethos since the research is conducted by economists Thomas Fuchs and Ludger Woessman, regarded as intelligent folks due to the attainment of a PhD. The audience treats this use of ethos as verification for the evidence. In addition to the rhetorical appeals, Ferguson uses a brilliant diction to manipulate the audience.
Journal 14-Famous Lincoln Civil War Speech & “Sivilizing Huck Finn” While I was reading Sutton’s article, I remembered Mrs. Phillips saying how that the regular’s English class just could not grasp that Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is in fact not racist. Apparently Sutton had not reached the sophomore honors English class level yet either, which is probably not the best, seeing he is a book critic and has the ability to edit, or in my terms ‘butcher’, books to his liking. If he had seen Twain’s purpose-to make the book as close to real life and society as possible to really emphasize the satire traits, Sutton might not have been so disgusted. It actually annoys me that he would change the whole book, and all of its
Kendrick Watts Moyer English 1020- 026 10 February 2014 Is College Really for Me…?? In the essay “Is College for Everyone” by Pharinet, discusses that it’s not mandatory to attend a college institution to obtain a well-paying job. In the beginning of the essay Pharient refrains to a statement that students hear every day, “You want get anywhere without your education (635).” This is a statement that many teachers and parents repeatedly preach to their child since they were kindergartener’s. Pharinet also explains in a reasonable tone, that having a college degree doesn’t always bring success in most students’ life. Mainly because, students are not properly preparing themselves to what seems to be the “real world”.
Mark Bauerline says “You guys don’t know anything” to today’s generation but because we don’t have to search in library for books or articles that we can view online does that make us incompetent or unable to comprehend them? No, it just means we have resources that save us time of hours of searching. College has not gotten easier to get into let alone afford but teens in this generation are holding 5.0 GPA’s and getting accepted to numerous ivy leagues with scholarships. Our minds are neither narrow nor dumb. Every generation has flaws and ours maybe the lack of motivation due to technology but with this flaw it allows us to excel becoming more intelligent and opening our minds to realms not even thought of.
Students do not realize that plagiarizing someone else’s work is actually stealing. The educational system does not teach this to students. The educational system should teach that you have to cite an author even if you just take their idea and do not use their exact words. The online companies that generate essays for students should be outlawed. This is making it where students that have a lot of money can easily get by with actually learning how to write correctly.
What these students fail to realize is that once they put something on the internet, it is impossible to erase and will forever be out on there for anyone to see, including future employers and colleges. When these college kids apply for a future job or for graduate school, the first priority that the employers and admissions have in mind is to search the applicants name into Google and see what pops up. They’re going to
Of course he'll never know your eye color because you’re on my phone 24/7, but at least he knows your Instagram, Twitter, and Tumblr name. And you spend far too much time on Twitter trying to connect with your 1000+ followers. The majority of whom you’ve probably never seen." As a matter of fact, technological detachment is becoming today's reality. Technology seems to be subtly destroying the meaningfulness of human interactions, disconnecting us from each other and the world around us, and leading to a menacing sense of isolation in society.
Academic Honesty GEN 105 February 27, 2011 Academic Honesty The first article I read was Academic Dishonesty in Traditional and Online Classrooms: Does the “Media Equation” Hold True, by Erik w. Black, Joe Greaser and Kara Dawson, published in December 2008. I found it in the EBSCOhost database using the keywords academic honesty and online. The article is also peer reviewed. The issues related to academic honesty in this article are that there is not many statistics of cheating in online courses as there is in face-to-face education. So it makes it hard to know if the students cheat more in online education.
