For example, we may learn from the story "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas", a Jewish boy who had malnutrition because in the concentration camps they only fed him a percentage. His veins were more noticeable and his fingers looked more like dying twigs. If we let the same thing happen again it may be a result of leading children to this type of illness, malnutrition. How can we relate to this? We can make good choices, for example, like treating everyone equal no matter what race, religion, or skin

    Aubree Hansen Hour 6 Ms. Fincher Characterization and Theme Essay Popular radical feminist Audre Lorde once said, “I write for those women who do not speak, for those who do not have a voice because they were so terrified, because we are taught to respect fear more than ourselves. We 've been taught that silence would save us, but it won 't.” Lorde never stopped being an activist though she had every reason to be silenced. These reasons included being black, female, and gay. This quote can be applied directly to “Night”, a memoir by Elie Wiesel at the time of the Holocaust. Unlike Lorde, who spoke out to make a difference, Elie and the other Jews of Sighet stayed silent to their oppressors and were therefore effectively opressed.…

    The implementation of the zero tolerance policy seems to be complicated by school administrators’ fear of violence, resulting in exorbitant suspensions and expulsions of students committing minor infractions against school policy. As these negative incidents involving unjustified suspensions of students increase, the drop-out and failure rates will continue to increase as well. However, the incidence of violence and general disobedience in schools must be addressed. Zero tolerance, if focused specifically on verified violent plans or acts, could be an effective policy for dealing with violent behavior and preventing some violence before it occurs.…

    In her article “The Predicament of ‘Doing School’”, author Denise Clark Pope gives an insight into what students are actually learning in school. She did a study in which she evaluated the behavior of students a prep school called Faircrest High. She states, “Often their behavior contradicts the very traits and values many parents, students, and community members expect schools to instill. By rewarding certain kinds of success above others, Faircrest High may actually impede that which it hopes to achieve. Instead of fostering in its students traits such as honesty, integrity, cooperation, and respect, the school may be promoting deception, hostility, and anxiety.”…

You can’t just blindly run into world wanting to do something; you need a plan, determination, and confidence to know that you can make a difference.” I thought about what he said and realized he had a point.

    While most of the adults in German society had established their own political and social views, the minds of young people were moldable. As the designated stewards of Hitler’s “new world”, they were one of the most prominent targets of the Nazi propaganda machine and the method in which this policy was put in place was through the educational system. After the death of the national father figure, Reichspräsident Paul von Hindenburg, Massaquoi recalls the first instances of change in school culture. Heil Hitler was introduced as the formal greeting and the portraits of Hindenburg were soon replaced by portraits of Adolf Hitler. The most captivating change that Hans recalled was the increased frequency of Hitler addressing the German nation directly.…

    Emile Durkheim’s functionalist theory can be applied to the movie The Ron Clark Story. Functionalism is a theoretical framework in which society is viewed as composed of various parts, each with a function that, when fulfilled, contributes to society’s equilibrium. This movie is based on a true story about a teacher who moved from teaching in North Carolina to Harlem, New York to teach at one of its schools. He asked to teach the most disruptive class, which had been labeled as hopeless and impossible to control. Mr. Clark had a difficult time with the class for most of the movie, but through determination and understanding, he eventually turned the worst class in the school into a well-behaved class who scored outstandingly high on their…

    To define true education, one must start by looking at the careers and likely livelihoods of the students being educated. Students need to be prepared for the events in life that would benefit them as a whole, not just core curriculum. Not to say core curriculum isn’t important, because it’s very crucial that the basics of math, literature, and science are taught to everyone. On average a student is individually different than his/her peers, and are expected to learn the exact same way. Although some may believe that America is doing good graduating students with knowledge that should help them succeed, in reality students are unprepared in almost every way since they are taught under the same guidelines and standards.…
