Know Nothing

Disagreements are never pleasant. We need to resolve them quickly before they escalate or become personally critical, which is very hard to take back once harsh words are out. We also need to try and resolve them completely to avoid it happening again. Volunteering at school with young children I see quite a few disagreements. Children will often sort silly little issues out by themselves and the incident will blow over and hopefully be forgotten about. At other times it can need and adult to…

problems can leave people feeling very isolated and abnormal. People can become very isolated and secluded and may often feel as though they have no one to talk to or anyone that they can relate to. Charlie is a great example of this, “I just need to know that people like you exist”, Charlie just needs someone that he can talk to in a way he feels comfortable and not…

order to conduct my second family assessment. In order to prepare for this meeting I utilized Wright and Leahey (2013) Nurses and Families: A guide to Family Assessment and Interventions textbook in order to guide me in discussion to continue to get to know the Galager family, who continue to be guarded and reluctant to answer questions. My question guide, Family Sense of Coherence (FSOC) Scale and Questionnaire, as well as the Ecomap can be found in the Appendix section of this Field Notes…

The man fell to his knees in front of me and begged, “Your majesty, please, my village is starving. We’ve had little food since the drought started, but I’m sure you know about that, it’s just that because it is so dry, a fire started and charred most of the crops. We don’t have any food now, and it will take too long for the remaining plants and soil to break apart and be ready for crops agian. It’s time we just don’t have, your majesty, please help us. The children,” he shivered, “the children…

(Sousa, 2015). Students ask me a lot of time for what they need to use math in their life. When I start teaching, I did not know how to answer the question. I do math because I love it, and I used it in college for my degree in geology and meteorology. But know, for what else I can use math? Sousa (2015) said that “If teachers cannot answer that question (Why do we need to know this?) in a way that is meaningful to students, then we need to rethink why we are teaching that item at all.” (p.…

example by being at work as much as possible, working long hours, and never taking time off. In other countries, there may be similar or even different management culture. The culture may be more aggressive, or more lax. But you as a manger need to know what that culture is and work within it, because in not doing so, you will not get the proper motivation for your employees, and in the end that will undermine you as a manger. Leaving your home land to work in another country, or even…

Savagery is considered animalistic, but in modern society, we mask it with nice clothes and successful careers: which reflect on the deep rooted evil that humans carry. Golding’s novel, Lord of the Flies, CBS’ show, Kid Nation, and Zimbardo’s psychology experiment gone wrong, all shine light on the evil in human nature. For example, Golding’s Lord of the Flies, shows the inner evil within the boys after they are stranded to fend for themselves . Additionally, CBS’, Kid Nation, put real kids on…

by Target, I was notified by my bank that suspicious activity had taken place on my bank account. My bank reissued a new debit card with a new identification number and took care of the activity on my account. While I do not know what the activity was or the amount, I know my bank was paying attention to my accounts and continues that service today. That in itself gives me peace of…

Leo “ How we treat the child, the child will treat the world.” This is why giving our children what they need emotionally is so important. It helps to shape the adult they will become. Children need unconditional love and affection. The need to know that they are accepted without restrictions or stipulations. The connection shared with a parent can affect a child 's well-being physically, psychologically, socially, and emotionally. Affection is how we put action to our words and physically…

scary place, because now there is the worry that students could also become content in their knowledge and no longer feel the need to expand and learn new things, because as long as they have the basic formula’s down, they wouldn’t actually need to know how to solve a problem, they could just put it into a calculator knowing that their answer will be correct – assuming they have the right formula and entered it in…
