The Pathway

various stages of a students’ education career so as to meet their learning need. For instance, a low SES school where I was placed last year uses student-focused programs such as Managed Individual Learning Pathways (MIPS) to actively involve students in planning their learning and academic pathways, which are adjusted annually or as needed. The teachers are also required to submit an at-risk list every term, so that school counsellors can intercede and…

Frederick Douglass’ Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave, recounts the details of his experiences born into slavery and his eventual escape to freedom. While the novel is well renowned as one of the most famous narratives of a slave, it's consistent theme of literacy as a mechanism for both mental and physical freedom now solidifies its placement as one of the most influential catalyst of the early 19th century abolitionist movement in the United States. As an…

The performing arts are a field and form of expression that reaches to all ends of the earth and through people of all races, ethnicities and backgrounds. As a person of color, I feel it is critical that arts administration be diverse so that they can find the communities and people most in need and help give back. Arts administration is the foundation of any strong performing arts initiative. These kinds of initiatives are exceptionally beneficial to the communities they serve. The performing…

gustatory nucleus, or nucleus of solitary tract (NTS) (Whitehead and Finger, 2008). Information from NTS is transmitted in a descending pathway to…

Perry (1999) states that it was originally thought that higher brain functions in the cortex were able to control the lower primitive brain regions and it was this pervasive thought that influenced many therapeutic approaches. In recent years researchers have come to understand that under normal developmental conditions the prefrontal cortex is able to inhibit, organize and modulate the lower brain; however, in children who have experienced trauma the organization is altered. Perry (2012) goes…

Then an old bishop of mine mentioned pathway why I can’t say for sure but I think he saw potential in my sister and even with our lack of knowledge in many areas. He would often say we were smarter then many kids he has seen in the public schools but I never believed him until I got in seminary I ended up being the best in class I was astonished I guess that was the major start of the uphill climb for me to a better future nevertheless when he mentioned pathway I really got excited, I knew that…

because it’s test for sucrose was negative and unknown microbe #7 was positive for sucrose. Lastly, using the results from the glucose test as well as the methyl-red test, which helped identify which fermentation pathway was being used: the acid fermentation pathway or butanediol pathway, unknown microbe #7 was finally identified. After testing for methyl-red, it was concluded that unknown microbe #7 was Corynebacterium xerosis because the glucose test for Corynebacterium pseudodiphtheriticum…

5 Best, which now exemplify the culture of Swedish. He implemented a set of Core Values: Observe. Question. Test. Learn. Coach. Repeat. Improve. Observe a situation, question what the best care pathway is, test the care pathway, learn from the outcomes of care, coach/teach others the best care pathway, continue using best practices and strive to improve them. Everyone…

Hypothalamic programming of systemic ageing involving IKK-b, NF-kB and GnRH (Zhang et al., 2013). Cellular senescence is when a cell’s replicative mechanism becomes arrested. This was phenomenon was first described in Hayflick’s experiment. Cellular senescence is usually due to protect the cell from becoming cancerous but it also plays a prominent role in aging (van Deursen, 2014). While senescence describes a halt in proliferation, cancer development is the uncontrolled proliferation of…

As an example, the Australian government routinely publishes statistics on access and participation levels of students from low socio-economic backgrounds in HE, but it does not do so for students from middle or high socio-economic backgrounds. Pathways are seen as one mechanism to redress disadvantage because of the ‘second chance’ they provide to those who do not have the necessary levels of achievement to access HE, and in so doing, reinforces the notion that students need a second-chance…
