1. Pellegrino, A. (2010). Pre-service teachers and classroom authority. American Secondary Education, 38(3), 62-78. Retrieved from http://search.proquest.com.wwwproxy0.library.unsw.edu.au/docview/722356586?accountid=12763
In this article Pellegrino examines the classroom practices of 5 preservice secondary school teachers, identifying the challenges faced in establishing their authority to create an effective learning environment. As a framework for his study, Pellegrino gives 3 basic origins of authority: Traditional, Legal/Rational and Charismatic authority. Of the three, he recommends student teachers aim to develop legal/rational authority as it is based on values, rules and procedures and is most conducive to modern views of learning.

al review the impact of implementing cooperative learning into the classroom. To conduct their study, the authors gained insight into the perceptions of 10 teachers from Australia who introduced cooperative learning into their classes over two school terms. Having attracted so much attention over the past few decades and with copious amounts of research suggesting it has both academic and social benefits for students, cooperative learning is a topic of great interest to me. In this study the teachers reported a number of benefits to be gained from cooperative learning although difficulties with its implementation were also experienced. This article provided me with important insight into the problems teachers commonly experience when using group work. For example, the tendency for students to socialise rather than focus on the task at hand, the level of preparation required for its effective implementation and managing time effectively. Methods to overcome these problems were also mentioned with the authors identifying a number of factors as being crucial to its success including, group composition, task type and training for both teachers and students alike. With such a large body of research supporting the use cooperative learning the reluctance of teachers embracing it concerns me. Gilles et al. propose that this resistance may be a result of the lack of understanding from teachers, on the effective use of cooperative learning as a pedagogical practice. When implementing cooperative learning there are many factors for teachers to consider. These include, ensuring group work is well prepared and well structured, providing tasks that are challenging and demonstrate a level of complexity and preparing students skills to resolve and manage conflict and monitor group progress. This is significant as research suggests that often little consideration is given to group composition, task complexity or skill preparation, when students are

    The journal makes reference to a lecture given by Charles M. Magistro, Director of Physical Therapy, Pomona Valley Community Hospital, presented at the Sixty-Third Annual Conference of the American Physical Therapy Association, San Antonio, TX, June 28-July 2, 1987. The paper initially deals with the growth of the profession over the years with Magistro emphasizing that "We physical therapists never must permit our profession to be jeopardized by failing to provide those services that justify our existence” (Magistro 1728). He explains that “The most urgent of these challenges is in the matter of education” (Magistro 1728), the issue is really affected by funding concerns proposing to readers to support the foundation’s fund-raising campaign to improve the quality of PT education. He was convinced that “the foundation had unlimited potential because its goals were tied so closely to the survival of our profession, specifically providing funding for research and scholarship activities” (Magistro 1731). The author is emphasizing the need to support the foundation to improve the profession in one way or another, a message that has made the article interesting and persuasive. This article sheds light on several issues in the physical therapy profession. Magistro makes his opinion very clear on the topic of physician referral for profit. “I remain deeply concerned about anything and everything that has the potential to debase our profession, whether it be the improper use of supportive personnel by our own members or the reaping of profits by practitioners outside of our profession from their unethical referral…

    Similarly, older adults whose perceived isolation score is one standard deviation above average face 30 percent lower odds of being above any category of self-rated health (e–.359 = .698). It is worth noting that disconnectedness and perceived isolation account for part of the health-related advantages of college attendance and marriage. Partnered individuals report better health partially because they perceive themselves to be less isolated (t = 4.13, p < .001), and older adults who attended college may fare better with respect to physical health because they are more socially connected (t = 15.06, p < .001) and perceive themselves as less isolated (t = 5.25, p < .001) than those who did not attend college. Additionally, over 20 percent of minorities’ health disadvantage in model 1 may be attributed to their higher levels of disconnectedness (t = 12.70, p < .001) and perceived isolation (t = 5.28, p <…

    Moss 1 Christian Moss Mrs. Suzanne EN 1113-30 06 March 2013 An Annotated Bibliography for Women on the Front Lines Thesis: It is the duty of the Pentagon to protect the service men and women of the nation’s military. Therefore, the Pentagon should reverse its decision to allow women in combat because service women have a higher risk of injury or death due to their feminine weaknesses. "APFT Standards." US Army Basic APFT Standards Comments. N.p., n.d. Web. 22 Feb. 2013. This document issued by the Pentagon and US Army illustrates the physical standard differences between men and women soldiers. The document shows that women are expected to perform at a lower standard than their male counterparts in all categories of exercise. The document also shows the gap between men and women physical standards increasing with age. I will use this document to argue that women are too weak to serve in combat if they cannot perform the same amount of physical exercise as their male enemies. Hopkins-Chadwick, Denise L.

    The preceding section has depicted the figure of “authoritative teacher” as a de jure and de facto authority within the teacher-centred approach. It is now turning to a discussion of the “authoritarian teacher”. The word “authority” has negative connotations with “conformism” and “unquestioning obedience” (Wilson, 1977), leading to the unpleasant impression of teachers as authoritarians. Teacher-centred scheme in essence attempts to cultivate a student attitude of “docility, receptivity, and obedience” via the “imposition from above and from outside” (Dewey, 1998, p.3-4). This type of imposition, however, is in most cases exercised by the authoritarian teacher.…
