Proposition

Rebuttal 1 - My opponent argues that Proposition 227 improved standardized test scores when it passed. Even if it was, which many studies disagree over, it is not beneficial anymore. It is outdated. Proposition 227 was passed 18 years ago – before the iPhone existed, before we had our first Black president, before we created laws against smoking. Our world has changed in ways that would have been unfathomable in 1998. And so have our education systems. Studies have been conducted, tests have…

ballot that voters could mark either yes or no to certain choices simply called propositions. This begs the question, “What exactly are these California propositions?”. The California propositions are essentially state-wide initiatives that directly voted by the California voters rather than the state legislature. In this election year, 17 propositions were on the state ballot with one being Proposition 67. Proposition 67 was essentially a ballot…

As the sun began to rise, on the morning of November 9, 2016, most Californians awoke with a new profound sense of freedom to get high. For the simple reason that, the day before, most citizens throughout California voted yes on Proposition 64, which legalized recreational marijuana for adults over 21 years of age. However, I voted no to legalize recreational marijuana. This was due to my values and faith, but most importantly for the simple reason that, it will negatively impact law…

Proposition 55 should be passed because of the fact that the school system would receive funding from $4 billion to $9 billion. This funding will prevent cuts in school budget as well as cuts in extracurricular activities. According to “Can Gov. Jerry Brown keep the promises he made with Proposition 30?”, an article by Chris Megerian in the LA Times, “education funding could face billions of dollars in cuts, said Jennifer Wonnacott, a spokeswoman for this year’s tax campaign.” These cuts mean…

Proposition 63 For quite some time there have been issues with guns and ammo capacity. Proposition 63 offers to regulate ammo capacity and check people’s background to make sure the customers who purchase firearms are not criminals who can harm our society. Many people agree that preventing weapons from falling into the wrong hands is crucial. Therefore, proposition 63 should be approved because it will close loopholes to prevent dangerous criminals from obtaining guns, make the state of…

politics throughout the elections. Many states throughout the country have already begun to legalize the recreational use of marijuana. The time has come to say yes on Proposition 64 and legalize the recreational use of marijuana. Marijuana has more use than just those in the medical field and it is important to legalize proposition 64 because there would be less people in prison for possession of marijuana that are using the government's resources, the state government would benefit…

The first week of the class professor Jamil O’Quinn introduced the rudimentary concept of logic; we’ve learned about propositions and how it’s critical to analyze what’s being stated. He said that statement could be true or false and it also could be unknown. He stressed that time could change whether a proposition is true of false; he gave an example of this by bringing attention to a quotation in the book: “The largest state in the United States was once an independent republic,” this was…

perspectives and taught me more about a topic. I have grown as an academic student by writing my research paper in both English and A.P. Government. This research paper had us choose a proposition that was on the recent ballot on November 8, 2016. I went ahead and chose to write about proposition 67. Proposition 67 seeks to keep the ban on plastic bags that was brought up by Senate Bill 270. Before the project I never understood why I should be worried about something I couldn’t even vote on.…

After reading about the five Core Propositions for Teaching from Chapter 7 of the textbook I choose proposition 1 because I feel that teaching is a process not an event and it is essential to engage students at all levels. Proposition 1 core standard stated that “Teachers Are Committed to Students and Learning” which I feel aligned to my teaching theme “technology has taken over the methodology of teaching. Therefore looking at what standard 1 is required of the teachers to accomplish with the…
