Documentary Analysis

“The Boy Who Lived Before” The whole documentary focused on a young boy who believes that he was reincarnated- that he was a Barra boy. Cameron is a five year old who lives in Glasgow, Scotland, who claims to have lived before his current life ever since he started talking. He talked about things such as living in a huge white house near the beach where he could see airplanes landing at sea, living with his 7 siblings, mom, and dad whose name was Shane Robertson. Cameron also talks about owning black and white Border collie. His mother, Norma, has been anxious and concerned about her son’s memories and becomes curious and questions why he had such memories. She was not convinced that Cameron was influenced by television shows of by what he hears from other people and claims that her son was never exposed to television shows about Barra and they have never been there. Her son would continually say particulars about his life back then and Norma soon decides to investigate her son’s situation and find a rational explanation to her son’s memories by consulting a child psychologist. The family travelled to Barra, and soon most details begin to fit such as airplanes landing at sea and a family called Stevenson owned the house. It was a struggle for the family to find the house near the beach, but somehow they managed to locate the house Cameron has spoken off. However, instead of questions being answered, more and more questions begin to form. Norma then finds a relative of the Stevenson family who lived in the house and confirmed that there was an actual black and white dog however the name and death of the father did not match.
It was interesting to watch this video about reincarnation because honestly I haven’t watched videos about it and somehow, at one point while watching the video I almost believed that such thing might possibly exist. It caught my interest and attention which is why I think it’s a nice documentary but as I examined the

    When it was time to choose the video that “related to me the most” I become clueless. Looking around the English classroom, I was hoping to find a few other confused and distracted faces, but instead, when the teacher asked the class if we had some good ideas, everyone was obediently nodding. All I could think about was how well these videos were directed and how clever they were. Then I was left thinking, am I that uncreative and unoriginal? Surely it couldn’t be that hard to string 500 words together on my thoughts about a one minute video I watched – but it was.…

    Pertussis, also known as the “whooping cough”, is a highly contagious respiratory illness that is passed from person to person through coughing and sneezing (Gregory, 2013). Early symptoms are similar to those from common colds, but when Pertussis progresses, it can turn to deep cough and potentially vomiting with little or no fever. It is caused by the bacterium Bordetella pertussis. The disease can be very serious in children less than 1 year of age where it can cause lung infections and, less often, seizures or inflammation of the brain. In rare cases, pertussis can result in death, especially in infants (VDH, 2012). The purpose of this investigation is to help people understand the potential risk of having Pertussis, urge people take necessary actions to prevent the disease, and cite recommendations from CDC for health professionals to follow in their work.…

    The first thing to do is build rapport with the patient. As a nurse, I must assess the patient’s age, cultures, level of understanding and readiness to learn. The age of my patient can make a difference. When dealing with a young mother, there is a lot of teaching to be done especially if she is a first-time mother. I want to be able to level my teaching with my patient’s age level, in a way that she can feel being respected and acknowledge accordingly. When it comes to being a mother, cultures have some effect on teaching a patient as well because some might prefer for their own mother to teach them on how to care for the newborn. Another way to assess is to check the level of understanding of the patient maybe there is a language barrier…

    Sigmund Freud asserts that the human mind contains three psychic zones. Robert Stevenson’s novella, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, contains both conscious and unconscious minds. Mr. Hyde is a man whose body image represents an animal, he acts as if he were an animal; he trampled a young girl who was running in his path. During this event his mind is totally submerged in the unconscious. Freud referrers to this as the “pleasure principle”. The id is “totally lacking in rational logic since mutually contradictory impulses may exist simultaneously and not cancel out each other”. The id knows no ethics or values, no good or evil; it encompasses no morality. Mr. Hyde has no conscious and acted out of pleasure without knowing it.…

    Although the narrative and descriptive essays are often given as separate assignments in composition courses, they are combined in this first section so that teachers can present expressive writing and still reserve time for the many forms of informative and argumentative writing. This choice is tricky because it confirms the folk wisdom about expressive writing and rhetorical difficulty. According to custom, students can write narratives first because they are already familiar with storytelling and can organize a personal experience according to simple chronology. Similarly, students can write descriptive essays early because they can use their senses to discover details that can then be arranged according to spatial patterns.…

    Lacking the support and opportunity to converse with veteran teachers leaves a gap in providing extensive education for each student. “Too often, however, novice special educators report that they are isolated from their colleagues and have little time to talk about their practices or to collaborate in preparing curriculum or instructional strategies” (Griffin, Kilgore, & Otis-Wilborn, 2008, p. 143). Unfortunately most educators are not aware of the changes in special education that are requiring more co-teaching environments. According to Griffin, Kilgore, Winn, and Otis-Wilborn (2008) “juggling these varied, and often, competing responsibilities is…
