With this move in mind it is essential for us to get rid of the furniture, office machines, and file cabinets that are not necessary. With our department going paperless we will be able to open up areas by getting rid of file cabinets and fax machines that are no longer needed. While turning our computers into an online fax system that will be sent straight to scanning. This is another good reason for our department to go paperless. We have many in our office that do not believe that going paperless will work or that it is a good idea.
Education is the key to economic mobility and avoiding poverty. Having a poor economic outlook restricts these labor immigrants from ever being able to find that upward mobility. “If most immigrants are not illiterate, they also are not all college graduates” (Portes and Rambaut 68). We need to have more professionals in our state because we lag behind many others on maintaining a strong economy. Building a stronger economy means being able to have the millions that are here continue their education and this would have positive impact on the economy.
A funding formula is a formula that gives a school the same amount of funds for each pupil. This can affect a working class child’s education because if other schools have a higher fund because they are more popular due to better exam results then working class children are unlikely to be able to get a placement at that school so they will be silt-shifted to a less popular school which has lower exam results because of its lack of funding due to its lack of pupils. However, this idea can be criticised because if an unpopular school gets too bad they will be put into special measures by ofsted, this then gives them more funding to try and help improve the school, if this is achieved then their popularity will improve. Silt-shifting is when a school off-loads pupils with learning difficulties who are expensive to teach and so get poor results. This benefits middle class pupils as all the troublesome students are removed from their school it means the teachers have more time for them to improve their grades thus making the school more popular because of their rank in the league tables then letting them cream-skim thus improving the school further.
Bradbury thinks that with technology surrounding us, people will stop reading books. If people stop reading books they will forget about things that are extremely important, which include history, how and why people act in different ways, how life began, and other things that are important today but with technology they are going to fade away. Another thing that could happen if people let technology dominate them is that they wouldn't be able to share their ideas or beliefs. All the new ideas people would bring into the world would be worth nothing because technology would be the most important issue. Technology could also damage our ways of communicating.
Since so much of what we use in everyday life involves technology, it is only fair to introduce our youth to it and get them accustomed to using it frequently. People never send handwritten letters anymore, that’s partially why companies like the USPS was considering reducing the amount of days they deliver. Majority of people are using email, social networking and phones to communicate. Not only is it easier, but more efficient and allows us complete more tasks since “everything is happening much faster, and more things are happening” (Source C). Not only will it help students in the future, it’ll also make learning more compelling, after all students do prefer “glitz and pictures” and “video and stylish packaging” (Source E).
I do have the value of hard work. Maybe not as intense as the Puritans in the 1600’s, but to some extent I do have it. I work hard in my schoolwork to achieve good grades and make my parents proud. I work hard to find jobs to help my family out with the way the economy has affected my family. In conclusion I am not one
I believe it is because of money and competitions of universities. As soon as a rival university sets their price higher the other universities sets their price higher as well. Universities used to have the government help them financially but that help has reduced a great amount and the competition to get students has greatly increased. Schools are trying to build a better foundation for students to attend but with money being spent to make the university “look better” the price to attend goes higher. With the economy being so hard right now to get a “good” enough job to be able to afford to go to a major university is hard I think that many students should make their own business.
Why I Returned to School ENG121 Susan Turner-Conlon 08/05/2013 Why I Returned to School For some people returning to school is easy, for others it is one of the most difficult things that they can do. For me returning to school was something that I had to do. The way the economy is right now, the only way to get a decent paying job is to further your education. The money was also a big one. Good paying salary is something that was important me.
(4) Some kids may not have a good life at home and when they read it allows them to forget about things for a while. This can apply to school too, if someone doesn't have a lot of friends, they are able to dive into the book and feel like they re apart of something bigger. Another example is , (5) literature is art, it how the author's express themselves, and that would take that opportunity away from them. Taking that away from the author is like taking away they ability to speak.1 While books shouldn't be banned from society , some have a lot of profanity. Nonetheless , that would be taking away the rights citizens through the First Amendment.
As schools are judged on their percentage of A*-C grades teachers will focus on the ‘achieving’ group of middle class students and will not waste their time helping the ‘hopeless’ group of working class students. This means that whilst the middle class students will be pushed to achieve the top grades, the working class will be left and will underachieve. Another marketisation policy introduced was parentocracy; which literally means ruled by parents. This meant that parents could choose which schools their children went to, which lead to the successful schools will become oversubscribed and many of the failing schools being forced to close. This may mean that the house prices surrounding area (catchment) of the successful schools will increase, as middle class parents move in to try to get their child into the school.
