We're Screwed
.... out of their mind when I saw my fellow students and some friends as victims in hell. Everything that was said must be done. Here's how it was, in the athletic department of the campus what ever the coaches said, went. Like bootcamp, coaches acted as if they were the drill sergeants. They yelled at anyone in sight. Although coaches did ask what their students thought about a particular subject, the athletes had no chance to speak. One time, Nathan White, a friend of mine and a star of the varsity basketball team, was fouled hard at a pre-season game and the coach asked him if he was hurt. Before Nathan could even move his mo .....

Al-Haytham's Mathematical Proof
.... make the interior angles on the same side less than two right angles, if produced infinitely, meet on that side on which are the angles less than the two right angles (Rosenfield 35).
Clearly there are dissimilarities between the last and the first four, as Euclid must have been aware, mainly in the length of the postulate. Today, Playfair’s Axiom that “through a point not on a given line, there passes not more than one parallel to the line” is widely regarded as preferable to Euclid’s wording. Since Euclid most assuredly was aware of several options to his version, it is unclear as to why he chose the form he did (Gans 17). Perh .....

Prayer In Schools
.... motto is "In God We Trust", there is no affirmation of that claim in the schools, or public life; In 1999, 37 years after prayer was dismissed in schools, generation after generation is diverging from God and is perishing in iniquity.
The prayer issue has rapidly changed in the past three decades. For numerous years, after the ringing of the bell, the Lord's Prayer, or a short school written prayer, was recited throughout the classrooms by all students, teachers, and administrators. Students learned their alphabet by quoting scripture. "A" was not for "apple"; "A" was for "A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh w .....

Importance Of Fractal Geometry
.... two-line generating formula does not have to be a dry and cold abstraction. When the output was what is now called a fractal, no one called it artificial. Fractals suddenly broadened the realm in which understanding can be based on a plain physical basis. (McGuire, Foreword by Benoit Mandelbrot) A fractal is a geometric shape that is complex and detailed at every level of magnification, as well as self-similar. Self-similarity is something looking the same over all ranges of scale, meaning a small portion of a fractal can be viewed as a microcosm of the larger fractal. One of the simplest examples of a fractal is the snowflake. .....

Technology And Education
.... offer many educational opportunities.
Since computers and the Internet have expanded in such a way in which education can be delivered to students, it is currently possible to engage in "distance education through the Internet. Distance education involves audio and video links between teachers and students in remote areas. Video conferencing allows groups to communicate with each other. Desktop video conferencing promises to bring students together from geographic and cultural distances, face to face via computer. Not only the teacher can talk to the students but also the students are able to interact with each other. This .....

High School Education In Japan And United States
.... students study three years in middle school, and after that, they enter high school at an age of fifteen through sixteen years old. However, in the United States, it depends on the state, and private school, but mostly the students enter the elementary school one-year earlier than Japanese students. Students in the United States study in elementary school for five years, three years in middle school, and four years in high school. (Outline of the System of Elementary and Secondary 1)
Getting in high school is different. In the United States, students get into private high schools by their GPA (grade point average) in their mi .....

Carnegie Forum On Education Report, And The Holmes Group Report
.... years of graduation and complete another 24 credits, your teaching certificate can be taken away. The fourth point of the Carnegie Forum on Education Report states we should recruit minority students into teaching through federal fellowship. But every year many minority students are given the chance to attend school through scholarships and grants. They already have many opportunities.
The other points made in the Carnegie Forum on Education Report do not represent a dramatic shift in the way things are done either. These points are just small adjustments on things we are already doing. The second point of the report says t .....

"Violence In Schools"
.... and Murder". I think most kids are pushed by peer pressure because maybe they are not very liked and picked on a lot and just burst. That is still no excuse to destroy the people who mean so much to someone out there. It's also seems like they know exactly how to fire these weapons as if they use them on a daily basis. Whether it be hunting or the shooting range kids should not be able to handle these powerful killers at know point in time.
According to most law breaking criminals, no matter age or crime it is always blamed on television or the movies. Television and movies have been here for quite some time and things I fee .....

Why Public Education Must Integrate Information Technology
.... teachers and students time together when and where it is most needed. Currently we have very rigidly structured school days. Often this rigid structure will interrupt a dynamic lesson, or leave a student with nothing to do while the rest of the class finishes. To maximize each student's time and each teacher's interactions with their students, we need a flexible, demand driven, schedule. Where each student can get her individual needs met while maximizing the efficient use of the teacher's time (Alcorn 1).
As science has been discovering how the human mind works, we have learned a lot about learning. Expecting every student to .....

Importance Of Multicultural Education
.... many wonderful features of Culture A, as well as the common features Culture B has in common, then personal experiences with those cultures will not lead them to judge negatively. Also, when these cultures see themselves being studied in the education system, they will begin to feel less alienated and more accepted by the community. This form of education cannot be learned easily if a person has grown up with prejudices for other cultures. That is why it is so important to begin this awareness at a young age, every day of the school year.
Multicultural education is most often brought out in the classroom through children’s book .....

The Neccessity Of School Attendance
.... say on those issues? I felllike I should be able to have a vote on when we should get our breaks and when school should start and end. In the real world you are able to make a decision like that. I feel like there should be more consideration given to the students and than maybe there would be not as many problems in the school systems as there are now!
I don't believe that students should be able to make the decision as to when school starts and when it ends. I also don't believe that your attendance shuold count against your grades! If you are getting good grades and you don't attend regulary, I don't think that should hav .....
