Zero tolerance: School-to-prison pipline must end by Victoria Middleton & Zero Tolerance: Strict Policy is necessary,misunderstood by Thomas D. White JR

the article school-To-Prison Pipeline must end talks about school-to-prison pipeline" and how we need to spend more of our time with little issues between the school instead of getting the police involved. This thing for zero tolerance it has to stop according to Victoria Middleton she disagree with these rules of sending children straight to juvenile justice systems. They tend to send students to DJJ for uncalled reason that should be handled by that school like disorderly conduct and or truancy which means they get expelled it is not right we then tend to have more dropouts than graduates. This need to stop we need to focus on more important things and stop spending so many tax dollars on DJJ stuff that is unnecessary.

 

The article Strict Policy is necessary; misunderstood by Thomas D. White JR talks about safety in classes, and schools for the students and administration. Without these people there is technically no school just a building that needs to be protected. Zero tolerance polices need to be enforced because now in life for our generations there are to many deaths, killings that were unnecessary or cause by horseplay that lead to being serious but you can stop it right away if you are able to stop violence with zero tolerance behavior that way nothing goes wrong and everyone is safe there are other ways to have fun and a lot of fun with out horseplay.

 

Today July 22, 2013 what is plagiarism and how to be educated on it

       Plagiarism is when you use others words, sentence structure, and using pictures as your own with out citing them and telling where you received the information from. I will try not to plagiarism again because I have been plagiarizing all my life because I used others pictures and never cite where I got them from. So for now on since I am not going to plagiarize since I am educated on it.  

Revising Summaries

     Me being confusing was the most important thing to change in my summary because it doesn't flow very well and it isn't clear. More importantly my spelling and grammar, I didn't take enough of my time to look over my summary or my reflection carefully. I needed more peer response to review and check my summary before I turned it in. My summary is indirect it's very confusing, and worded horrible. In the first paragraph second sentence I was trying to say that people should believe in phenomenal things as they are learning so that writing can become interesting and fun to the students. In this process of my writing I didn't do a rough draft I just winged it meaning that I went off my first draft that I reread multiple times and turned it in.
      In the future I plan to change these issues by making a shitty rough draft first, then a rough draft, then a second rough draft, and finally a copy. This will help me because I will have multiple drafts and can have a lot of people help me to revise it and check and correct my paper. 

Shitty First Drafts by Anne Lamott from Bird byBird

The article "Shitty First Drafts" talks about the importance of the writing process and the product of your writing. The quote "the fantasy of the uninitiated" (Lamott, par 1)  means that it doesn't really matter the quality it means the quantity of your first rough draft is going to be more than likely longer then your final paper because every thought you may receive should go towards your first rough draft and then by the third draft it should be nearly perfect. Writing your first draft is more of a process then a product because the process is fixable and easier to fix than just a product because you have to go threw a process for everything that is ow a shitty first draft then become a good second draft and a third draft become terrific.   

summarizing (pages 28-31)

As I read the article "custom text" (pages 28-31) I learn how to response, about responses, and I also learned how to analyze, and what analyzing is.You must closely and carefully read the authors writing and then response with the best answer possible,I also learned after reading custom text how to response in multiple way such as arguments, and your own point of view and more. As I continue to read "custom text" I found some interesting facts about analyzing,you learn how to break down the summaries and articles and to find ways to setup and conclude the passage or article. When analyzing you should look for two main things and they are: what is the clam or the argument and how the author is making the claim or argument.

workshop

  My summary is okay it wasn't perfect I have a few things to change. My strongest points in my summary are my structure and organization. My weakest point from the summary was using the transitional word "also" to much so I goggled similar synonym's and came up with more words to transition my summary. Nice introduction and conclusion. According to my group members.  

America's brain gain

  As I read American brain gain I research that Mr.Geoffrey Parker was a professor at St. Andrews University in Scotland, he was then offered a position triple his salary at the University of Illinois in the U.S. According to the education experts many students have crossed the borders to join American schools for better education.
    It was interesting learning others struggle and how they survived the struggle and still maintained to manage school. Last year out of 700,000 American University professors 2,750 were foreigners. According to the education experts this number has doubled over a decade. For example at the University of  Illinois 270 of their teachers were foreigners. The largest number of foreigners from last year was from Canada with 205, India with 193,and more, nearly half of the foreigner teachers came from Asia.
    Eventually, Professor Parker 43 years of age took the offer at the University of Illinois the same day it was offered to him, he was very excited. When he started working for them he knew it would be different but he didn't know whether it was for better or worst. It turned out to be for the better. In England they cut their schools budgets not only once but twice by 15 percent both times. In Mr. Smelser opinion which i agree with is "if you stay in school long you will have more money and more job opportunities with higher salaries. Stephen Duck came from England to the United States and made double his salary here in the U.S.
    Business and engineer majors have great opportunities once they receive their master degree. The amount of money wont change and neither will the people unless they choose to get fired or something. Mr.Duck says that there is more freedom in the U.S than their is in England.
 In conclusion this article is talking about how foreign students come to America to receive their education because it better.
