He exaggerates the advice he is about to give the students. He lets you believe that he is going to offer you serious advice, but then he gives a humorous one instead.…
I really enjoyed the part of his essay where he talks about teaching and also substituting for a teacher who had a wild class. It very much reminds me of people I knew in…
Students come with their own individual packages and no two of them are alike. Even though the curriculum is the same, no two students learn the same way. Teachers are challenged to meet the students’ “package” and to create an approach at instruction that take into consideration the students’ differing abilities, strengths and needs are satisfied. To compound the challenges of instruction, the intellectually disabled (ID) student presents additional dynamics that impact the art of teaching.…

Each behaviour has a function for the person displaying it. The main aims for challenging behaviour are self-stimulation, gaining the attention of others and avoidance. With people who have severe learning difficulties, these behaviours are not premeditated and are not designed to upset. There…
The keys to success in working with students with Intellectual Disabilities are the instructional organization and the delivery. Instructing these students cannot be done in an unorganized setting but rather in a detailed oriented manner, with goals in place so that the student gets the maximum out of the class that they should. Taking into account their disability when planning the learning instruction has to be paramount in the instructors mind from start.…

This convocation address has had a significant impact on my view of education. Most people agree that there is potentially something noble about teaching, yet Faludy proves it. I am reminded of film critic Roger Ebert's assessment of the film Life is Beautiful in which Ebert argues that since Jewish prisoner Guido is a clown, comedy becomes his weapon. Faludy was an educator. Education was his weapon. As it is for us…

I think the best speeches come from life experience and he has had experience on this topic. I learned from this speech that most African American males and females were all raised the same. Our parent taught us to be aware of who we are, and to always think before we act because even if we do something that someone else might do doesn’t mean we can do the same thing.…
Parents of students with disabilities can experience a wide range of different emotions, such as, denial, anxiety, fear, depression, guilt, and anger. I have seen these emotion first hand, as a teacher. Working as a special education teacher, I work with families and children with disabilities. I get to see how the disability can affect families. Teachers need to be aware of the different stressors that families with children with disabilities experience on a daily basis.…
After watching “The City of God”, I personally can see the correlation that crime plays in association with poverty, social influence, and lack of law and order. Though my perspective vastly varies from that of sociological theorists, I think we can both conclude that this movie is an extreme representation as to what can occur when society shuns away disadvantaged youths to a place that lacks justice as well as ethical and moral responsibilities. Sociological perspectives regarding crime emphasize the interconnections between conformity and deviance in different social contexts (cite). In the following paper I will attempt to analyze three sociological theories and apply their views to the movie “The City of God”. These theories include; Functionalist, Internationalist, Conflict, and Control Theories.…
They say that it is always better to be a small fish in a big pond than being a big fish in a small pond. While this brief discourse is certainly not on the topic of either fishing or ponds, it is similar in the way that the experiences of being somebody in an unknown town and being a “nobody” in a big town mirror this proverb. While there certainly are many advantages to living in a small town, the question that begs to be asked is whether or not these advantages far outweigh those of living in a big city. Further, living in a small town means that one is residing in a relatively small community and that the people manifest a certain familiarity that goes beyond normal conversations. The town grocer or shopkeeper may remember one’s name and the local physicians may actually even know one’s entire medical history. The crime rate is much lower than a big city and it is safer to take walks at night without worrying about getting mugged. Yet, can one say that life has truly been lived and experienced based on the happenings in a small town? There is so much that the world has to offer and only a small part of that can be experienced in any small town (Steves, 2007).…

City is a big place where you can see busy people; establishments open for business and vehicles in a hurry. A place where you can go shopping, eat specialty foods, play electronic games, enroll in a prestige schools, do better transactions and do whatever you want. Crime is also present in a city but then government functions are most probably accomplished and can be experienced there. Better roads, police assistance, and better government infrastructure.…
