In modern times, the huge progress of sexual liberation has evoked the reconsideration of gender identity, which leads to the reexamination of gender transgression and its sexual corollary.

After accomplishing my individual case study, I realized that it has helped me have a great understanding of a struggling reader psychology. I have noticed that there are many factors that interfere with the child’s reading ability that is not solely based on his/her intelligence. If a child is struggling in reading, I need to take into consideration what factors may be affecting the child.

Self Reflection Coming into college with no experience of any college classes, I was very clueless to how anything was going to work and what to expect. When I thought about taking composition one, all I thought was that it was going to be all writing papers. I was very wrong and this was far from true. Walking into this class for the first time, not one part of me expected to learn how to write papers through watching movies or through the in class activities we did. I expected to be given a…

Gateway has challenged me…
