If you saw bullying, what do you think you would do? Would you just stand by and let it happen, take part in it, or maybe try and stop it? A lot of people will just stand by and let it happen because they don 't want to be the next target for the bully. Bullying in schools is believed to be a normal part of school life, however, when people begin to think this way, they forget bullying is physically and emotionally harmful to both the bully and the victim. The problem is people choose to ignore…
their, and there” or “your and you’re” then it would reflect badly on the business. The business may be perceived as incompetent, sloppy and the employees would be perceived as unintelligent. It is safe to say not one of the cast members of The Jersey Shore would be hired for a business I was running. Proper use of the English language is important in many situations and I am likely to side with the Prescriptivists in academic situations and the Descriptivist in certain social situations, such…

My own experience when I visited Italy inspired me to research and discuss the differences between each country and how they represent the Italian culture. Food is one of the…
When people think of the most dangerous creature lurking the ocean depths they think of sharks. More specifically, they think of the largest predatory shark and most well-known species, the great white. The great white shark has grown a reputation as the deadliest and most fearsome creature to ever swim in the ocean. These beliefs have come about mostly due to Hollywood’s overexposure of the predatory fish as a deadly, human devouring monster. Although the great white may not be exactly exempt…
home, but to open my eyes in unimaginable ways. I joined seven youth and eight adults from my home church of Westminster Presbyterian Church in Dayton, Ohio, on an early June morning to journey to Bayville, New Jersey. Once we arrived, we met with the executive director of Jersey Shore United, Barry Moll. Through his organization, victims of the calamitous storm were receiving assistance in rebuilding their homes. As I stepped through the doorway of our project site, my eyes wandered to find…
Medical Waste Regulations “Reports of medical debris keep thousands from shore,” Washington Post, July 10,1988. The poor management of medical waste resulted in the wash-up incidents on the Atlantic coast in 1987 and 1988. Following the incidents, the congress passed the Medical Waste Tracking Act of 1988. After a few years, many states responded to the wash-up crisis by formulating their own medical waste regulations. Consequently, New Jersey’s Regulated Medical Waste Management act was…

It is important to note, these actions are done through a variety of different technological mediums: the television, tablet, cell phone, and laptop. However, on a global scale, the television is used as a primary medium of…
Curriculum Reflection As a student and second year Special Education teacher at Keystone Central School District, my knowledge and experience with curriculum is minimal, yet valuable. While student teaching, I have also had the opportunity to experience teaching in two different districts that have curriculums that are followed rigorously. From these two differing experiences in my life, I have formed several personal views on how curriculum does not affect high quality instruction, as well as…
