Anyon (1980) discusses the concept of social class in five New Jersey elementary schools and argues that each of the schools prepares students to fit into the social class that the school is primarily composed of. In each of the five elementary schools Anyon (1980) examined, social class most certainly had pivotal component in the curriculum, but the geographical community also played a key role in the hidden curriculum as well. One of the first items mentioned by Anyon (1980) prior to…

Some people say that there is a difference between urban and suburban sprawl. Mrs. Lowry states that urban and suburban sprawl is the same thing as urban sprawl is people leaving the cities for housing options that allow them to spread out more but still close enough to the city to work. This is exactly was suburban sprawl is. However, suburban areas encourage more commuting as it takes longer to get from place to place, which increases gas emissions, and using farmlands as land for new housing…

rudimental understanding of the phenomena “population”. What is population? Population is the whole number of people inhabiting a city, country or area. Population in my opinion is likened to an engine in a car in such a way that as a car can’t work without its engine, that’s the same way a country can’t function without its population. Nigeria, officially known as the Federal Republic of Nigeria, located on the western coast of Africa has a population estimated at 169.2 million as of the…

Therefore. people need to take an extra effort to conserve the land. Out of the many unwanted effects of urbanization, one of the most prominent consequences is the disappearance of lands surrounding developed area. Many companies and businesses mindlessly purchase land to build on, not caring about the…

Over half of these people are are younger than 35. If I had to choose where to live well, when I’m young I believe it would be better live in this…

Paris, when compared to New York, is much more tolerant of the underground “otherness” Baldwin describes throughout David’s dialogue. Though Paris doesn’t necessarily encourage or approve of openly queer people, it is still a safe haven for the pair; since both Giovanni’s and David’s original countries would have stronger opinions on their involvement. America, when compared to Paris, is much more traditional, and is more so likely to have violent responses to those who display “otherness”. Plus…

The rapid industrial and suburban growth that Chicago exhibit during the turn of the century can easily be seen from its skyscrapers and gridded roads to its booming economy and population. However, beneath the surface lurks a problem that hints at just how far the windy city still must go through to achieve its grand status as one of the world’s great cities. Much like Chicago, across the pond Manchester experienced a lot of the same issues. Plagued with problems Chicago and Manchester had…

Within cities are many neighborhoods. These neighborhoods can range from being very prosperous to less fortunate. Many various factors play a role in how a city or neighborhoods either grows or decays. Throughout the city of what we call Pittsburgh, there are many neighborhoods that are fast to develop, but there are also many that are decaying. One neighborhood that is fast growing is Cranberry Township. Cranberry started as a marsh land that settlers drained. The land serves as a good…
