Analysis ("The Elements of Dance," May 6) and The Artist’s Toolkit (“The Artist’s Toolkit,” May 6), however there are two things that will continue to be invaluable as I move towards my professional career in programming - facilitation experience, as well as integrating arts into non-arts content. It was incredibly rewarding to plan and perform two facilitations throughout the semester. Through these facilitations, my partners and I had the opportunity to practice our public speaking, explore the impacts of reflection and collaboration, and immediately get feedback on what we did well and could improve on. In professional settings, presentations and facilitations are very common ways to share progress and, thanks to my practice in facilitations, I am prepared to succeed. The other important topic is arts integration. I learned through course readings such as “Reinvesting in Arts Education: Winning America 's Future Through Creative Schools” that the arts are powerful tools that increase retention rates in content that can be hard to absorb. By understanding the potential of arts integration and by applying arts integration through my facilitations, I have become more effective at learning new material and teaching it. All-in-all, I am pleased with the experiences this course and teachers have given me and this course’s content will…

My peers were good friends, so they supported and reinforced each other’s ideas and opinions, whereas I…

Although these items are exposed to the sight of the criminals, drug addicts, who by the necessity take the…
I agree with the author stance on victim-facilitate. The application of victim facilitation and it concerns in situations where a victim's negligence or carelessness commits an act does make the victim completely responsible for the crime (Karmen, 2016). Victim facilitate is a very complex issue. For example, an individual is late for a meeting and they park their car in an alley several blocks from the building. The individual had never parked there before but is aware that the alley is…
Social Facilitation in a Competitive Situation 1. What was the purpose of this study? The purpose of this study was to determine if the effects seen by social isolation could be isolated from the effects of rivalry when individuals compete in the presence of one another. (Evans, 1971) In a study conducted in 1924, Gordon Allport concluded that social facilitation and rivalry were both motivational factors when two individuals were competing against one another. Therefore, the purpose of this…
Toronto supports the postulation that meals eaten in the company of others are larger than those eaten alone. This idea can be defined by the term “social facilitation,” which is how we modify our actions based on who we are with. Their study investigated whether or not different social facilitation theories of various well-renowned social scientists, such as J. M. de Castro and D. S. Krantz, could have another layer to them. Their research sought to determine whether it is the mere presence of…

For example, before I used to present by reading…
