Csi Class Reflection
CSI Class Reflection To begin, I just want to say that the overall idea of this class is just ridiculous. The fact that no other school in the entire county requires a class like this on top of the amount of stress that it puts students through is just deplorable. Not to mention that students who have other commitments besides school, such as a job, or even in my case college, have a hard time even finding the time to work on their project outside of school. Secondly, this class is just a hodge podged Civics class, so why not instead of having an entire year of civics have a year long Civics/CSI class hybrid, combine the curriculums, and dedicate time over the entire year to the CSI project? That way, you could kill two birds with one stone and also have a year-long Sociology class rather than just having it for one semester. That, and also if you were to teach the Civics/CSI hybrid class during Senior year as …show more content…
Just… ridiculous. The fact that local government is refusing to follow the law and protect people who are in the country illegally is completely ridiculous, and just proves how corrupt government has become.” Lastly, the one thing that needs to change is there should be no need for community service hours. With my topic, seriously for my five hours relating to my project, I watched loading screens. FOR FIVE HOURS. That and again with the busy lifestyle of some Seniors, it’s just a bigger pain in the butt than it is a learning experience. At the very least, instead of being worth 10% of the project grade, bring it down to 5%. To conclude, I believe that this class has been more trouble than what it’s worth, but could be fixed. As I outlined, I believe that there are many ways to streamline this class and make it more efficient. Although I know that hiring another teacher for the multiple viewpoints suggestion would cost a lot of money, it’d be something to think about when you or Gaustad

    The class has broadened my thinking process quite a bit now since the beginning of class. The Oral presentation on gentrification in El barrio has changed my outlook on how communities in the united states are being manipulated to change because of the area they live in and how that area is in need of change but not for the betterment of the people that live in that community but for the investors and other people that are trying to move in to change the demographics of that community. These kind of communities are hurt the most because sometimes the property is valued more than the culture that is being asked to step aside.…

    I really enjoyed participating and learning about America’s dynamic political policies. This class was very useful and I have used the social, cultural, political, governmental and economic prism method to dissect numerous policy topics for other classes. The format encouraged class discussion and it was engaging to hear what other students thought on hot topic issues. I also believe this course taught me how to have more meaningful political conversations by learning how to refrain from personal political ideology and rhetoric.…

    Having been determined to attend UBCO for nursing, I focused on taking courses with transferable credit. Though I subsequently lightened my course load, I occupied the remainder of my time devoting myself to various volunteer opportunities with diverse client populations. I believe familiarity with the hands on aspect of nursing is as essential as my education. I maintained my grades while balancing multiple volunteer opportunities to gain priceless experience caring for individuals with varying demands. Upon admission to UBCO, I will embrace the opportunity to start a full time course load while continuing the compassion and empathy I learned.…

    Dear Principal, a class that specializes in focus, prioritizing, organization and study skills is absolutely necessary for any Middle School student. At my age and younger, students have a tendency to be disorganized both physically and mentally. I have a knack for losing and forgetting my homework assignments and my grades suffering. I know I am not alone in this struggle against clutter and forgetfulness. Critical thinking classes provide a student with structure, study skills and the art of prioritizing. I know personally the effects of school on a student who is unprepared and disorganized. The stress and sleepless nights can be avoided with a class dedicated to the student's future. Unlike Math and Language Arts, this class would be linked with the students' success in EVERY other class. The benefits would not only pertain to students, but to the enthusiasm and effectiveness of a teacher. Is there anything more important than preparing a student for his or her future? The skills learned in a critical thinking class would help a student not only through Middle and High School. The study skills and note taking strategies would also be useful and very beneficial in College and whatever career they choose to pursue in the future.…

    Edgar Allan Poe has always had a knack for psychologically freaking his readers out and making them believe everything he is writing. Our job as the reader is to break everything down and look for clues on how he writes. Doppelgangers are excellent clues. These funny little things can be used to make the reader second guess himself and make him wonder if he does actually know what is going on. This essay will outline four different short essays written by Poe, “The Black Cat,” “The Imp of the Perverse,” “Berenice,” and “The Tell Tale Heart” and explain instances of doppelgangers within them.…

    Everyone is likely to experience some form of discrimination or prejudice; as is anyone capable of acting prejudiced towards others. On April 5th, 1968, a teacher in Riceville, Iowa named Jane Elliot conducted an experiment with her third grade class that dealt with the concept of discrimination; and was documented in Peters’ 1985 ‘A Class Divided’. The exercise originally took place the day after Martin Luther King was assassinated. The documentary is an eye opener to the world of racism and discrimination. Bucher (2010) describes racism as “discrimination based on the belief that one race is superior to another” (97). According to Bucher (2010) “discrimination is defined as the unequal treatment of people on the basis of their group membership” (100). Bucher goes on to say “treatment varies because of race, age, gender, social class or any number of other dimensions of diversity” (100). ‘A Class Divided’ exposes that discrimination doesn’t just go to the extent to the color of skin, culture or ethnicity, but discrimination can fall into any physical characteristics, social status, having a developmental disability, simply being a woman, and in this case the color of your eyes.…
