The two documents outlined the ideals of Left wing liberals and right wing conservatives, ideals that are still used today. The first…

First year survival guide actually made me feel more comfortable with the way that my placement has been going. There were times that I was worried about my skill in classroom management but after reading the article I think that I have been doing at least on par and have been reacting in the right way. The article itself was a great read, I agree with a lot of what I had read. On the other hand there were some things that I believe don’t remain are not as relevant anymore. There were…

Although this is a sole belief on its own, there are many ways in which people have attempted to prove its validity.

However, I believe that the theory that is the most…

Political correctness is defined by dictionary.com as being “Marked by or adhering to a typically progressive orthodoxy on issues involving especially ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, or ecology.” The term “politically correct,” while originally meaning to be in line with political doctrine, was adopted and popularized by the New Left in the…

The light we see from the sun is not exactly the light that comes to the earth from the sun. We see sunlight as being whitish in color, but it actually is a blend of the colors of the rainbow. The reason we see it this way has to do with the way our eyes perceive color.
