Further education

of nineteen (19), I knew without a doubt in my mind that I wanted to further my knowledge and career in the field of Podiatry. Becoming a podiatrist is an opportunity that not only adds a new scope of treatment for patients in my country Grenada but also to establish Podiatry into a field of specialty. The alarming rate of amputations occurring amongst high risk patients resulting from poor treatment and lack of proper education in foot health is a testimony to need for such a specialty here at…

Arts education can provide pleasure, motivation, and productivity to students (Brezovnik, 2015). Teaching quantitative classes like math and science alone has less real-world application and becomes less interesting to art-oriented students, but integrating art…

There are two types of education formal and informal- both highly valuable when developing both knowledge and basic life skills. When distinguishing the difference between these types of education an example of viewing formal as travelling on a bus and informal as riding a bike (Growth Engineering, 2014) helps to develop a strong understanding of the two. Once you enter the formal bus you are limited to what you are able to do- you can exit at whichever bus stop, but ultimately the driver…

The set of related beliefs behind a teacher in an institution of learning is what Education philosophy refers to as it influences the manner in which learners are taught. Education philosophy embodies solutions to the questions behind the purpose of teaching, what needs to be taught and through which methods as well as the role of the teacher in the classroom. It distinctly outlines the beliefs of a teacher’s standards of management with reference to his or her teaching related positions, for…

higher-earning job and work less. While people who are street smart do not receive a higher-earning job because they do not care about the education offered to them, but only care about what's going on from the outside instead of school. The thought process is like this, someone who is lowly-educated will get more workings hours, while the person who has higher-education will get less work…

born and raised. Because the island I lived on faced economic, health, and educational disparities, teaching, sometimes, was a bit of a struggle. At times, I felt like teaching was not enough to get children where they needed to be in the world of education and development. What was missing, in my opinion, was a school or educational psychologist or even a guidance counselor on staff to give children and adolescents that extra push to succeed. While us teachers were burnt out from performing…

with ease. Throughout this course I have come to understand the importance of an expository essay and the components that are necessary for growth in my field of study. I am working towards a dual degree in elementary and special education. Earning my special education degree will require effective communication, my strengths in my field of study, and areas of opportunities. “Lacking the skills to effectively analyze the material, these students often struggle to properly summarize what they…

balance and posture in children with Cerebral Palsy. The four studies I analyzed all demonstrated significant findings. Zaniker and Kastrin (2011) looked at both posture and balance in their systematic review and found Hippotherapy improved both. Further to this Dubuse, Gibb & Chandler (2009) found that Hippotherapy did improve posture and balance. With this study I was interested to find that Hippotherapy also improved impairment, activity and participation levels in line with the ICF. A…

spoke these words at the United Nations Youth Assembly nine months after her attempted attack by the Taliban, an endeavor to discourage other females from receiving an education. Her native country Pakistan is one of the many countries around the globe that violate Article 26 in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). Education, which has had its fundamental roots all throughout history, has not been kept to the standards presented in Article 26 of the UDHR by the countries of…
