SUCCESS OR FAILURE OF THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH The Stolen Generation all began with the British deciding they’ll send out the over population of convicts to settle in Australia on the 26th of January 1788, the First Fleet arrived in Sydney Harbour carrying out roughly 15,000 convicts. The first interaction between the British settlers and the indigenous Australians was one of anger; the British believed the Indigenous Australians were uncivilised because of the way they lived.

looking at the importance of educators recognizing student’s cultural difference and meeting their individualized needs, research has shown that there is a strong correlation between families and school involvement. The more involved the families are with the school, the higher their children academically prosper. Family participation is also a strong gauge of post school accomplishments (Becher, 1986; Eccles & Harold, 1996; Hoover-Dempsey, Bassler, & Burrow, 1995; Rasmussen, 1998), however most…

Family Decline The lack of a proper family construct is currently said to be the cause of “decline” in domestic relationships across America. Dr. Janet Z. Geile focuses on three perspectives of family decline, this paper will focus on the conservative model. My own experiences in life more closely correlate with this model.

Family also includes the people who are close enough to be considered a part of a person’s family. Those people could be roommates, best friends, pastors, teammates, etc., and be considered a part of a person’s family if that person is close enough to them. My family of origin consists of my mother, father, sister,…

together as a “family”, it was very awkward at first, because no one knew each other and it was little difficult stepping into the “shoes” of both a child and motherly/fatherly figures. Yet, as the course progressed and the more we were able to discuss common issues and the aspects of a typical family, it suddenly became much more easier to relate to each other and work together. For example, at the time of our first assignment, where we had to determine what roles we would play in our family,…

have students with different family beliefs. What they can add in their classrooms curriculum, and what they should avoid talk about it? For that, It must have a background about their students’ religions. So they can react to them in their ceremonies and rituals. At the same time, teachers cannot ban children to talk about their family’s religious practices in classroom discussions, because children always talk about what they see. But the teachers should respect all the religious practices.…
