In classrooms, conflict is necessary to achieve student abilities to devise their own perspective and form different judgement on a topic which helps gain knowledge. In the essay “Other Voices, Other Rooms, by Gerald Graff, a professor of English and education writes about “the chance to try on a variety of clashing ideas, to see what they feel like, is one of the most exciting opportunities an education can provide”, which is known as conflict in a classroom. While keeping a degree of pluralism and diversity between subject, teacher should have a level of communication when presenting material. The outcomes are rewarding for student who go to a “university with already developed skills.…
Many skills that are essential and vital for the future are developed when people encounter conflict. Conflict pushes people to establish and foster the skills needed to manage a variety of different situations. Along the way, people understand that having a non-defensive, composed reaction and facing it head on will calm and resolve a dispute better than an angry, harmful reaction where the people, out of expectation of bad outcomes, avoids the problem at hand. In general, when people encounter any sort of conflict they know, due to past learning experiences, that certain approaches or methods will work and others will no. Understanding how to handle difficult situations and using the skills they have gained, people can learn and grow from encountering…
In this article taken from the book Limbo: Blue-Collar Roots, White Collar Dreams, the journalist/author Alfred Lubrano brings up many things readers wouldn’t normally associate with college. Essentially his main point is to tell the readers that college slowly but surely cuts off connections with people you were once close with, such as family, old hometown boyfriends, and old friends from your hometown that didn’t end up choosing to go to college. He says that college educates you and basically takes away any common ground you once had with old acquaintances, because more knowledge changes you as a person. Alfred brings up the fact that children from lower working class families compared to children from middle class families grow up differently abiding and learning by different rules. Because of this, the lower class or “working class” children will most likely have a more narrow view of things and will be more stubborn when it comes to learning because their parents see things in a very particular way and force their opinions on their own kids. Whereas kids who come from middle class families are more open minded, they are encouraged to learn by their parents, and are allowed to believe in what they want. These are ongoing patterns of children growing up in the different classes of society.…

I felt an expository essay, written with formal language, aimed at Monash University students for the purpose of enhancing their knowledge on conflict, was an effective way of reflecting on the chosen topic. This enabled an opportunity to explore all aspects of the topic, and provide novel and real life examples into the topic of encountering conflict.…
Most people believe that conflict is something negative. In many cases conflict can be. Whether1 a small dispute between two neighbors or a global conflict that leads to war, conflict is inevitable. Disagreement is a part of human nature. We are a society of individuals working together to achieve common goals. How we handle conflict determines whether the outcome is a negative or a positive one. If properly handled, conflict may lead to growth, maturity, and understanding of one another. If not, conflict at school could lead to broken ties, at home to hurt feelings, and in the workplace to discouragement. These negative outcomes may be avoided when conflict is handled properly. There is no single technique that works best for settling conflicts. What works in a school setting might not work at an office or at home. Regardless where or with whom the conflict is with, a person must examine themselves, his or her intentions and more importantly, core values.…
I chose to take this self-portrait of my friend, who is a college student. He is a Chemical Engineering major in the University of Arizona. I pick the background to be the University of Arizona campus because it clearly says that Aaron is a college student of this school. Furthermore, the portraits shows that he is smiling, which means that he is content with his college life, even though his major is extremely difficult and challenging. This simply implies that even though many college students often stressed out and struggled through difficult classes, they often find time to be happy such as hanging out with their friends, or go to certain social events to have fun. Nevertheless, students often study late and lack hours of sleep, but yet they still have a huge amount of energy when it comes to having fun. This self-portrait also means that college moment are the most challenging and happy moment in people’s lives because college moment is between fully adulthood in the real world and carefree childhood in the high school world. College years are the years that many people make new friends and companions as well as learning many skill sets such as improving creativity and problem solving skills before they are set off to the real world. Plus, they are also the years where many students are often in search of themselves as well as developing into an adult. Furthermore, the portrait implies that college years are the moment many students will become independent person with the knowledge they learned in order to go off to the real working world where they would have a lot of responsibilities. Therefore, college days are the most joyful and best moments in many students’ lives even though there are many challenges within those days. That is why many graduates, who are in the real world often, say that they miss being in school and carefree or hate working. That is the meaning of this self-portrait.…
College life is stress free; whoever said anything about it being difficult is ludacris. Being in college is so nice. There is work but there isn’t as much work as in high school. The assignments aren’t due for credit or points in our final grade. We do assignments for fun. It’s no big deal if we don’t do our homework, cramming the material the night before always works, that’s how high school was. The rest of the time we don’t have class we hang out with friends and talk until the day ends. There are so many things to do on campus such as joining clubs, going downtown, going shopping, or walking around campus with friends; there is no time for homework. There is only time for exploring and having fun in college. That’s what the college life is all about having fun and socializing to our hearts content at parties, during class, after classes and on the weekends. All of the socializing outside of school leads you to do well in college.…
