1. The first research study that I analyzed is The Effect of a Professional Development Classroom Management Model on At-Risk Elementary Students’ Misbehaviors by Dr. Gary Reglin, Dr. Joretta Akpo-Sanni, and Dr. Nonofo Losike-Sedimo. The copyright to the article is by Project Innovation and it was published in Fall 2012. I found the study through a search on ERIC (Educational Reform Information Center) by using the search terms ‘Classroom Management’ and ‘Discipline’. The reason that I chose…

Social structure relates to “The Real Slumdogs” because, without the mega-slum that is Dharavi, other cities and countries would not be able to purchase goods nearly as cheap as what we have come to expect. In Dharavi, there is no minimum wage; there are no labor laws – or, at least, there seemed to be none according to the movie. In the movie, much like the migrant workers in “The Harvest,” families work long, strenuous days with little pay and, in order to make the very most they can, they…

medication management alone or in conjunction with behavioral intervention relieves ADHD symptoms more effectively than behavioral or community based treatments alone. Socioeconomic status has also been shown to moderate treatment response. However, research has had conflicting evidence regarding how socioeconomic status effects the efficacy of pharmacological treatment; one study showed no influence of SES on drug response whereas another study showed a positive correlation between…

My ascribed social statuses are that I am a brown skin 20 year old Hispanic female. My achieved social status is that I am a psychology major in my second year of college. Based on my social status I have a sum of expected behaviors or roles I should practice like studying for my classes, paying for my bills as a 20 year old should, speaking fluent Spanish, and social extrovert. However in many of my social statues I have some role conflict. For being a shade darker people believe that I should…

Using Captive Breeding for Conservation of Exotic Animals: Are there Ethical Concerns? Imagine a hypothetical observance of an enclosed lion exhibit, proudly displayed in a local zoo. Stationed at the apex of a nearby hill is Tamarin, a spectacular example of an immaculate exotic animal, practicing his patience while playing with his cubs. Curiosity stimulates a concern for this animal. Does he enjoy inhabiting this place? How does he compare to his wildlife counterpart? Is it just and ethical…

Zoos can be very good for animals. They can help save a species from extinction, and then the animals can repopulate. The zoos can also help to maintain the genetic diversity of a species. We should have zoos, because they repopulate species that are close to extinction and they maintain the genetic diversity of the species while treating all the animals humanely. Zoos breed species that are endangered or on the brink of extinction. The animals that are bred in captivity hardly get released…

but experimental approaches require to compare the outcomes of these programs that will increase post-release survival. The Kaiser’s Mountain Newt, Neurergus kaiseri is listed as a vulnerable by IUCN criteria, to aid about the ecology and the conservation of this species, we carried out a trial release of 20 newts reared in captivity on 4 occasions during the spring and summer of 2015 into wild in western Iran. First, we built a soft-release enclosure for acclimation to the environment in cages…

According to the American Zoo and Aquarium Association, there are over 10,000 zoos worldwide. It is amazing that there are so many organizations out there that are completely dedicated to the well-being of these incredible animals. Zoos are well loved by children and adults all over the world because of their exotic wildlife, but, in reality, zoos do much more than just take care of animals. There is a lot of behind-the-scenes work that goes into these organizations, and they have become a…

Shenandoah National Park Home to many of nature’s wonders, Shenandoah National Park is known for its varied species of animals to their amazing landscape. Located in Virginia, the park’s towering mountains, was partly formed by the Appalachian mountain range, known as the Blue Ridge Mountains. On one side of the mountains, the vast forest and lush valleys border the Blue Ridge mountains. Formed by the clashing of tectonic plates billions of years ago, the mountain range now houses the…
