By completing the interest survey, I felt in the position of a student: to have to think on unusual things and understand that they are part of who I am. I realized that I could know a bit more about me. I learned about my favorite food and my favorite singer, which are different from 10 years ago.
I complete the survey before reading the articles and thought I could use this to know more about my students. After reading the material, I learned that knowing the interests of my students can help me to prepare a class focused on their interests. Furthermore, it can help to create curiosity in them. “When we’re interested in what we’re learning, we pay closer attention; we process the information more efficiently; we employ more effective learning strategies, such as engaging in critical thinking, making connections between old and new knowledge, and attending to deep structure instead of surface features.”

As a math teacher, I answer the following question at least once a week: “Am I going to use this in my life?” The first thing that comes to my mind is: “You will use math to pay your taxes, take your car to a mechanic, compare the number of hours worked and your paycheck”, among others. “When a topic connects to what students like to do, engagement deepens as they willingly spend time thinking, dialoguing, and creating ideas in meaningful ways. Making learning contextual to real-world experiences is a key learning technique with differentiating for student interests.” (McCarthy, 2014). Knowing the interests of my students is essential for them in order to master the material being covered in class. In addition, this gives me the opportunity to create a differentiating classroom. A few months ago I talked with the administration in my school and I let them know that my desire is that students have the opportunity to go to college or university to complete a degree,
In recent studies, Gutting found that 55% of college students found that they were more successful in pursuing their careers after getting a college degree. Gutting’s first point stems from the idea that teaching is not a matter of “making a subject interesting” to students, rather exploring how subjects are intrinsically interesting. [Your topic sentences should be your points about the article, not a summary of the author’s points. What do you
The goal of communications is to make ethics a live, ongoing conversation. If ethics is something that is constantly addressed, referenced frequently in company meetings, and in personal conversations among managers and employees, then people are more aware and more willing to defend the company’s policies when they see or hear of problems. Employees will hold other employees responsible and accountable for living the company’s values.
Amanda and Erica’s grades may differ for a variety of reasons. Studies show that the more academic activities a parent is involved in is significantly associated with their child having higher literacy achievement, lower rates of grade retention, and fewer years needing special education (Miedel & Reynolds, 2000). Amanda’s father’s income, education, and occupation also all correlate with her literacy abilities (Buckingham, Wheldall, & Beaman-Wheldall, 2013). Parental education has the strongest influence of the three (Buckingham, Wheldall, & Beaman-Wheldall, 2013).
“There are only patterns, patterns on top of patterns, patterns that affect other patterns. Patterns hidden by patterns. Patterns within patterns. If you watch close, history does nothing but repeat itself. What we call chaos is just patterns we haven't recognized. What we call random is just patterns we can't decipher. What we can't understand we call nonsense. What we can't read we call gibberish. There is no free will. There are no variables.(Palahniuk, Charles).” This quote indeed can be implied in our everyday lives, but I think that it is very much relatable to what goes on in our country, our government tactics and even the catastrophes that happened in America. However some would
Karyss is a 2nd grade, who has repeated second. She will be turning 8 in August. She has an individualized education plan in place to support her writing and reading comprehension.

For this assignment I was asked to make two sample sequence with images from Week 4 Assignment 2. I like sequence two the best, because it displays more of what's going on during the concert, for example, face painter with a client and a juggler in action. Sequence one is more of an introduction, that's why the opening image is an overall view of the crowd, the second image is of the band sound check, the third is the announcer, and then the band opening and so on.. I chose the closing images, because it is a final image that sums up the evening. I want the audience to interpret from the sequences that they got to experience the event themselves, from start to end.
Payment was denied due to the lack of medical necessity for the frequency of the billed procedure. The carrier stated that the procedure was last performed on August 28, 2014.

In monitoring my behavior, I will buy a calendar and a journal and write an X on everyday of the calendar in which I accomplished my scheduled time of sleep. In the journal, I will record what I did wrong on the days I didn’t accomplish the task of sleeping at the scheduled time. I will buy the calendar this weekend and I already have a journal. I will begin this plan at the same time I begin having a timer for my scheduled bed time which is on July 17th. A reward for this intention will be a record of all the calendars I’ve used in reaching this goal, it’ll show how far I’ve come.
On Friday, 17 July 2015, at approximately 1400 hours, I, Officer Allison Bigham, was contacted by a Parks Services Supervisor, Andrew Jones, in regards to an associate who was reported to have their cell phone on them. Jones stated that Miller had already been told to put the phone in her locker; however, she was being uncooperative. After updating Sergeants Frank Long and Charles Drakeford on the situation, I was instructed to pick up the associate, Victoria Miller, and escort her to the South Carolina Interview Room in order to complete a compliance verification audit. I met with Andrew Jones who stated that he would help me find Miller because Park Services had no way to contact her. Upon entering Boomerang Bay, Jones and I were flagged
While looking over my answers on the “Multiple Intelligence Scoring Sheet”, I’ve noticed that I only have “strong abilities” in the musical category. However, I also have abilities in interpersonal and intrapersonal as well. I honestly do agree on with Howard Gardner’s Theory and his descriptions because each category is written with logical meanings. After reviewing the types of roles that I was put in; the three listed are actually perfect for me, and the others don’t quite correlate with me personally, except spatial-visual.
My group had an instance of functional which was to work together to achieve the assignment. We had to pick four out of eight people, and all of eight people would die very soon if they did not have another heart. After reading the assignment sheets, we could pick two people immediately, Peter and Thomas, who were young boys. We had a lot of opinions about picking the other two. For me, I would pick Father and Donna base on what I read. However, after spending about ten minutes to discuss with my group, we all had agreement for Father and Mike. Even though I picked Donna instead of Mike, the other members shared their opinions and analyzed the information; so finally, I agreed to pick Father and Mike. At first, each of us had different choice
Generally, workers’ compensation cases for medical providers settle around 50-70% of the billed amount. This obviously depends on the items billed, modifiers used, and other specifics in the case.
Graff insinuates that critically analyzing and writing about personal interests is a creative way to develop a diverse student population. When it comes to learning, rather it be in a “traditional” grammar school or the more contemporary classrooms of colleges and universities, there is no argument stronger than incorporating personal interests in academic work that appeals to students. This type of learning engages a student because it encourages curiosity with regards to exploring the main ideas
