Contributions

Canada has been involved in many contributions, globally.

The mission to Afghanistan, supporting Steven Lewis Foundation, and adding alternative energy to the country of Canada (wind turbines) are one of the many contributions made over the past 70 years. In my opinion, with these actions Canada has made, they are very effective and…

make up Pavlov’s contribution to psychology, including other psychologists that we would not even know about without Pavlov. This topic fits into this class because the entire section of 3.2 is about Pavlov. I am hoping that this will bring up some new information about Ivan Pavlov that we are not usually taught about.

“A Quilt of A Country” and “The Immigrant Contribution” are stories of America, stories of us, the real, underlying idea of our nation. Although, the stories aren’t told of the same perspective, one tells of an improbable idea of a world condensed into a nation, and the other tells of the accomplishments of the outsiders, them being immigrants from our surrounding countries and even overseas countries, and how they shaped our nation as a whole. There is a point where they overlap where one…

In the American grade school system you are advised rather by your parents or mentors to start thinking about college, years before high school graduation. In American culture we are taught at a young age to optimistically share our dreams of what we want to be when we grow up. It is a conventional perception that any child can be what they they want to be if they put their mind…

topics, run for office, help another person run for office, or even bash others who are running for a government position. As far as education goes, there are always things to be learned. I believe that I am educated enough to make a positive contribution. I keep up with most issues that arise and are worth taking sides on. I choose sides not only based on things I need or want, but more on what would make the most positive impact on society. Too many are in it for only themselves and propose…

The power she felt to exercise her opinions helped to form her identity, which was not aligned with the identity of other Christian women in France. While Heloise saw herself as…
