What did Transcendentalists feel about the inherent nature of human beings (were humans inherently good or evil)? Transcendentalism felt that you should live in harmony with nature. Transcendentalists thought that humans were inherently good and that humans can transcend to a higher spiritual plane. 1. Transcendentalists believe that individuals "transcend" by learning from and living in harmony with nature. Thoreau put this philosophy into practice by living alone in a cabin he built himself at Walden Pond for two years (1845 -1847). Thoreau's experiences during this period provided him with the material for his masterwork Walden(1854). The quote below is from Walden. Describe two specific things Thoreau learned about life by translating the lines below in your own words: "I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.... I wanted to live deeply and suck out all the marrow of life." (Walden)…

    ----- The dream act was passed during 2010 but a few days later the Dream Act came crashing down when the senate filibuster the act. A lot of senators were against the reform. They needed five more votes for the act to be passed, they had 55 votes overall, you need 60 votes to overcome a republican led filibuster. The bill had already passed the House and was approved by president Obama. The five democrats who voted no were Max Baucus and John Tester of Montana, Kay Hagan of North Carolina, Ben Nelson of Nebraska, and Mark Pryor of Arkansas. A lot of people are against the dream act because they feel that if the government lets immigrants get citizenship they would be letting them get away with them breaking the law in the first place by coming in to the united states without permission, even though most of the people benefiting from the dream act were very little to have a choice to decide whether or not they wanted to come to the united states or not. Then in that case the parents or older family member who brought the kids here in the first place should get punished? Another thing is immigrants get the same benefits a American citizen gets, like go to the hospital, women give birth without having to pay the amount of money a native born would have to pay. Immigrants also don’t pay taxes but Mrs. Elvia Hernandez during my interview said that she gets more tax taken away from her check then people who have social security numbers and when its time for tax season she barely gets any money back. Other people who think if the government lets the dream act be passed they’re basically telling immigrants that if you obey the law and keep your head down you may get a chance to citizenship. If the dream act is passed are people really going to obey the rules and laws they would be giving or are they going to try to rebel against the government.…

    A general definition of the word syllabus is that is an outline or a summary of the main points of a text, lecture, or course of study. Widdowson (1984, p. 26) defines syllabus as a general plan of activities that can be applied in a class to facilitate the learning process. Another general definition of syllabus would be, "description of the contents of a course of instruction and the order in which they are to be taught" (Richards et al. 1992, p. 368). Highlighting a broader concept on this would be Yalden (1984, p. 14) who defines syllabus, is considered as an instrument by means of which the teacher can achieve a degree of accomplishment between needs and social or individual actions in the class. Further adding on that point would be, Nunan (1988a) who states, "syllabus is seen as being concerned essentially with the selection and grading of content, while methodology is concerned with the selection of learning tasks and activities". Hence, it can be then concluded that a syllabus is useful because it specifies the content of the course to be taught.…
