My ultimate objective was to bring an awareness of childhood maltreatment in Georgetown village. In Belize, I traveled with a ministry team to the southern district of Georgetown. The village was a remote location where the residents chose to literally secede from the rest of the country. The team was accompanied by some Central Belizean locals, who insisted…
My project is over the Maya’s they exist from 2000 BC to 250 AD. In my essay, I will be talking about the Mayan Calendars, mathematics, and Pyramids. They were located in central American; which is now known as Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador. The Mayan calendars started in BCE. The calendar ended in December 2012. December 2012 is when the Mayan calendar had ended and that was one of the reasons why our society had thought the world would end that year. The calendar has been…
“Miami isn’t too far; it is ninety-five miles away at the most…” Maya’s cherubic features made it hard to fabricate an excuse for wanting to stay in Cuba. I knew that staying here, staying in poverty, predisposed me to a life of misery and malnourishment. The journey would be perilous, and I wondered if it was worth it. I wanted to convince her to condone the actions of the corrupt government. I longed to voice my dissent, however I knew the time had come. I was tired of living life as nothing…
As a resident of the city of Ithaca, New York for the past 19 years, I have had many great experiences in this “collegetown”. Ithaca is unique in that we are surrounded by greenery everywhere and are in the backyard of Cayuga Lake, the longest of the five Finger Lakes. We are becoming more farm-friendly for produce and we are always conscientious about sustainable development. This fall, Cornell University released a report outlining its plan to become carbon neutral by 2035, a huge step in…
The Great Barrier Reef (GBR) in Australia is known for the most amazing coral and fascinating sea life that live within it. The reef covers 134,364 square miles and is the home to over four hundred types of coral and five thousand types of fish and mollusk species.

reached the top, they discovered their view was blocked by an uncounted amount of trees, making it a disappointing end to their hike. One of the most famous bodies of water with many living things is the Great Barrier Reef, which is located off the northeast coast of Australia. The Great Barrier Reef is home to more than 2,000 different sea creatures. Since no other countries border with Australia and it is completely surrounded by water, it is considered an island. Australia has a population…

You will need to develop a survey and require each employee to participate anonymously. The survey should contain from 20-25 questions. The questions should be able to reflect all the barriers in the office. Have your employees turn the survey in within a week. This should show you all the strengths and weaknesses that are…
Before I jump directly into reflecting on the group presentation, I would just like to wishfully thank them for their effort and of course, thank you for teaching a course that was rather interesting. I moved all the way from Kuwait to Brock and in all honesty, knew that group work would be my first and main concern. The reason behind this is that usually, I would get to pick my own friends and that makes the communication process within the group much easier but that’s not the case at Brock and…
The ICF, also known as the International Classification of Functioning Disability and Health, is “a classification of health and health related domains” (Who.int, 2016, para. 1). The ICF looks at a particular person’s disability or health problem and unlike the bio-medical framework, it understands that a person’s well-being is both dynamic and complex. Its aim is to help people with illness or disability to live their lives fully and not just when it occurs, but for their whole lives. The ICF…
