Personally, I relished the exhibition because I came to learn a lot out of it about culture. I additionally do hope that other people would have definitely gained something out of the event. All of us after the event will find a substantial reason to appreciate our cultures and retain…
As a returning adult, non-traditional student, something that I find imperative and under-discussed is the transitioning process in which fellow scholars experience. Non-traditional students face challenges that are unlike traditional students. Bridging the gap between one’s pre-existing life and that of enrolling in higher education can be difficult. Often this break may feel like a never-ending balance beam, each variable of life attempting to tip the scholar in many directions. Furthermore, proper time management should be established, and personal relationships maintained.…
The early humans exhibit was interesting solely because it explained the origin of my culture. It touched upon the first forms of art made with rocks and stones. It also displayed the tools used for hunting, gathering, cultivation, and herding but despite these positive aspects I found it quite boring. The room itself made me sleepy because of the color and as I was taking notes I could not help but want to leave.…
With advancements in technology, some students have chosen to complete their schoolwork through the Internet, rather than in traditional classrooms. Those who support a traditional classroom approach to learning argue that it provides more of an opportunity for students to interact with the teacher and other students. Those who feel that learning over the Internet is better argue that it allows students to learn anytime and anywhere they choose. Do you feel education is better provided in traditional classrooms or when offered over the Internet? Write an essay to be read by a classroom teacher in which you persuade the reader that either traditional classroom education or Internet-based learning is better.

There was a body there, that had been divided in half, which was by far, the most amazing sight ever. This body was a skeleton that was basically "sliced like cold cuts." I was able to see through every "slice" of the skeleton. The fact that almost every single body displayed at the exhibit was posing like alive and functioning people made it that much more entertaining to see. As strange as it sounds, it made me personally feel like I was able to relate to them more. These are human remains, after all. There was a skeleton holding a football in a section about "balance and muscle strength." There was also a body sitting at a table, while "turning" a page of a book. Another was laying down, "kicking" a ball as…
Social class has also shaped youths’ dress code as a cultural practice among youths all over the globe. Most youths may prefer given type of attire depending on the fashion of interest, however, their social classes, relating to their economic status, practically determines what they have on. For instance, it is common to identify youths from upper class with expensive nice looking attires, while those from low class are capable of purchasing the second hand cloth.…
Being a first generation college student is something that I take great pride in being. The panelists from yesterday radiated pride and responsibility, in upholding their name as a first generation college student. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to them, however, it was hard for me to identify with some of their feelings and attitudes about attending a four-year university. It felt odd for me, as many of my classmates could empathize with how the panelists felt, whereas I, coming from a different background, had trouble pulling from my experiences to understand their previous circumstances.…
My expectations for the exhibit were low. I expected something creepy and horrific. My first impression seemed to verify these concerns--the waiting area with rainbow-reflecting lights, the dim and maze-like rooms with the walls all black, the first room of pale fetuses floating in jars of liquid. That first display was eerie, and a little disturbing, as were all the other displays at the exhibit, but at the same time, it was fascinating.…
The exhibit we went to see was a gallery walk. It was an exhibit of pictures and the artists who produced the photos, and the meaning of the photos. We enjoyed it because it was particularly interesting how the 1960’s was portrayed through photography. It showed not only white Americans but African-Americans making it easily relatable. It showed hard times, fun times and how they made the hard times fun times.…
People are judged on what they say, where they go, and what they believe, but the main form of judgment is due to appearance. With one look, we make inferences on the economic status and background of other people. It is no secret that less fortunate people generally do not have as nice clothing as those who are wealthy. But is the difference in one’s clothing a worthy reason for them to be treated differently? The answer is no, yet it still occurs each and every day for students who are without uniforms. Children should not be treated differently just because their parents are unable to buy them trendier clothes. With the implementation of school uniforms, students can focus more on learning and building social connections based on interests and beliefs and not their societal status. School uniforms are the most effective way to eliminate social and economic differences among students.…
“We are a bunch of pussies,” replied Justin Singh-Courtney, a freshman at University California, Davis, to a very simple question: Is our (current college students) generation more sensitive than our parents’ generation? As high schools and college have begun incorporating more trigger warnings, diversity trainings, and awareness days it has become a pressing issue as to the line where sensitivity ends and coddling begins.…
(Significance and background) Everybody in this class room has had or will have children. Anyway it will happen that your kids will become the most important point of your life. You will do everything to keep them happy. When they are small only you can influence on their behavior. Parents always want to see their kids healthy, well-bread and happy. After some time, when your heirs grow up enough, they will go to school. As soon as this happens you lose part of your influence on their upbringing. The school grabs this part from you. Students usually spend 1/3 of their day time there. This new society will build up their way of thinking and way of behavior. A lot depends on new friends, teachers, and studying, of course. The atmosphere inside the school building is important, too. There should be a spirit of studying, co-working, and pride. And one of the most important points to reach these is wearing school uniform. I positive that students in school should wear it. In my country all schools have special uniforms for elementary school level, and high school students wear business suits with ties. High school is the first chance for students to feel that they are a part of business society. Americans are very free in their choices. On the one hand this is good, but on the other…kids begin think that they can do whatever they want to, and, unfortunately, sometimes they do not have discipline and do not show respect to their parents at all… I think this happens because they begin to feel themselves free too early. And sometimes accidents happen……
The most progressive, articulate, inspired and dynamic segment of the country’s population is the student’s community. The formative period of student’s life should be utilized for an all round balanced development of his/her personality. Political experience constitutes an essential part of this learning experience. This period prepares one to face the challenges better and enables one to succeed in life. The much hyped dirty murky nature notwithstanding Politics has the potential to inculcate qualities like general awareness, keeping abreast with current happenings and above all leadership qualities in an individual. Student’s who join politics are good orators. They become assertive by shedding their timid ness and shyness. Tackling problems and solving disputes and handling crisis situations however small or big they may be, infuses confidence in them. It helps in developing skills to deal with people from all backgrounds and of all shades of opinion.…
Being a student can be the most exhilarating time of your life. New friends, new places, new challenges can all add up to a huge buzz. But all those things can also make student life seem a total nightmare. Financial worries, debt, exam pressure, burden of homework, relationship problem, parental pressure and so on, these all together buildup students' stress, which can overwhelm any student. Stress is one of the biggest problems and challenges facing students who seek to get a good education today.…
In 2010, Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Harry Styles, and Louis Tomlinson auditioned as solo candidates for the seventh series of the British televised singing competition The X Factor.[4] They failed to progress to the "Boys" category at "judges' houses" but were put together to form a five-piece boy band at Wembley Arena, in London, England, in July 2010, during the "bootcamp" stage of the competition,[5] thus qualifying for the "Groups" category. Nicole Scherzinger, a guest judge,[4][6][7]and Simon Cowell have both claimed to have come up with the idea of forming the band. In 2013, Cowell said that it "took him 10 minutes to put them together as a group".[8] Subsequently, the group got together for two weeks to get to know each other and to practise.[9][10] Styles came up with the name One Direction.[9] For their qualifying song at "judges' houses", and their first song as a group, One Direction sang an acoustic version of "Torn".[11] Cowell later commented that their performance convinced him that they "were confident, fun, like a gang of friends, and kind of fearless as well."[12] Within the first four weeks of the live shows, they were his last act in the competition.[13] The group quickly gained popularity in the UK.[12]…
