Becoming an elite is no easy task; one has to go through immense training in order to gain the proper mindset. One of the important aspects of becoming an elite is having the right type of education.

I believe that all men are created equal and unique, and everyone deserves respect and dignity in their medical care. Nursing is an honorable career, and for me, it is the best path towards achieving the goal of helping people. I chose to be a nurse educator for much the same reason. As a nurse with 15 years of…

The grading policy takes less stress off students and puts more stress on the faculty. Today, students just strive to make a 70 or above to pass and finish the course. The grading policy makes it easier for students to cheat or fail without any consequences.

In regards to children’s education, teachers play an important role. Since the No Child Left Behind Act was signed into law in 2002, many people have been concern about children’s learning and academic achievement, especially parents and educators. In fact, teachers are always trapped in “teaching dilemmas” because each teaching method has different levels of pros and cons for students.
