has presented new, unique ways to perceive life and the reality we live in. By focusing on specific works of literature, this course offered discussions on the means people use to obtain these altered states, and the underlining truth of our understanding of reality. A document that embodies this theme specifically is Plato’s Republic Book VII: The Allegory of the Cave. It exemplifies the resistance society has to divergence, and the journey mankind must overcome to reach enlightenment. However…
In the lesson Cindy and I had planned for the Week 6 Tutorial for the Unit LAN1260, the specific learning goal was to present and justify a point of view relating to a prediction about the content of a text and to clarify the understand of content as it unfolds in formal and informal situations allowing student’s to connect ideas of their own experiences presenting and justifying a point of view. Students were introduced to the key learning goal and were given an example of the task to be…
TeachLive has been an amazing experience. When I first meet the avatars I became very excited because they seem so real. To tell the truth, I been thinking about how they are able to know as much as they do. 1. What are your thoughts about using TeachLivE™ as a tool for teaching practice? In my opinion, teach live is an incredible tool for students who want to become a teacher. I loved TeachLive even thought I wasn’t the one chosen to teach them. I was able to see how the avatars challenged…
Compassion In Tim O’Brien’s, “The Things They Carried”, he introduces his extremely personal story to his readers “On the Rainy River” that he supposedly has never told anyone. With this chapter he is faced with a huge life-changing crisis, he had been drafted to serve in the United States Army to fight in the Vietnam War. O’Brien felt trapped, he was completely opposed to this forced command but there was no way out. He couldn’t even fathom why he would have to risk his life for a war that he…
the figure indicates the comprehension of the text would not be difficult for students even without teacher’s help. However, even 100% text coverage may not cause complete comprehension to all the students. In order to make students get better understanding and acquire more incidental knowledge, the aim is to make the text reach 98% text coverage or more. As a result, the text needs to be modified to narrow the gap between students’ actual vocabulary size and the vocabulary size that is needed…

three. He also became the prime example of how he overcame the stereotype by reading relentlessly and with all the knowledge he gained, he later became a professional writer. Alexie’s passion for reading is comparable to Malcom X’s who ended up understanding the language thoroughly while imprisoned. In Malcolm X’s “Coming to an Awareness of Language” he expresses his lack of knowledge of the English language. He knew how to make his way around the streets with slang, but until he ended up in…
concise explanation of the Form of the Good as a metaphysical object which is aligned with the mental capacity of knowledge. Plato is trying to demonstrate that the form of the good is the highest level of understanding one is able to achieve, hence why a ruler should focus his studies on understanding the form of the good while enhancing the strength of the rational part of his…
someone who health focus is maintenance of illness or cure of illness or injury. In my practice experience at KBRH I have had the opportunity to care for both palliative and non-palliative clients and not only recognize the shift in care, but the understanding around the different types of care. Particularly in the shift to palliative. For example where pain medications are given in greater dose and longer term without concern for addiction or tolerance, or where family may need more care and…
Longman’s comment that “God’ purpose is to frighten people. In Qohelet’s estimation, he is a comic bully (v 14-15).” I do not agree to a very strong theocentric emphasis. God has not revealed everything to human. His reasons may be beyond human understanding. Human should maintain an attitude of faith seeking…
