Cultural Events

Forty-six percent of Washington’s school children are children of color and, in many schools,
students of color are the majority—and sometimes an overwhelming majority. Unfortunately, for
many children of color, schooling does not respect their identity or ethnicity, and they experience a
very challenging and negative school experience. The children you teach are unlikely to have had
the same schooling experiences that you have had. Washington’s Superintendent of Public
Instruction is emphasizing the demand for teachers who have strong intercultural competence
(being able to work with people who are different than you) and an inclusion mindset (that all
students should be included in the same opportunities to learn).* Because teaching all children is
your moral, ethical, and legal obligation, you need to begin to recognize that there are other
knowledge systems besides your own or the ones primarily used in US schools, and that you will
have to change your teaching to fit the needs of all learners.
To help you do this, I ask you to attend—and possibly even participate in—two cultural events of
your choosing during the semester. These assignments are designed to help you explore and learn
about a culture or group of people that are not so familiar to you. You can attend, for example, a
heritage event (such as a celebration from Black History Month or Native Programs’ Pah-Loots-Puu
Powwow in March), a cultural festival, a museum exhibit, a film festival from other cultures, a
remembrance event, or any of a multitude of events—just so long as it is not something with which
you already have experience. Step out of your comfort zone and experience something different!
You get to choose the two cultural events you want to attend and events at WSU and the U of I
events are your easiest options, but you may go anywhere. Whatever event you choose—whether
here or back home—I must approve it AND you need to share the opportunity with your classmates
by announcing the event at the beginning of class, thus informing and inviting other students.
As you reflect, be sure to explicitly connect what you learned at the cultural event to concepts
covered in the Woolfolk text or other readings. A 2-page (double-spaced) reflection paper** must be

Reflecting on “The City Beautiful”

Description

  1. Recall what our text says about the City Beautiful movement and the Columbian Exposition of
  2. Go deeper however: research the movement and the Exposition. Find two sites that you feel
    provide good information on them and give us links to those sites and describe what they offer —
    what you found interesting. Be specific, not general.
  3. Next, imagine that you could go back in time and walk through the Columbian Exposition. What
    would you have seen there of note? And what specifically would tell you that the Exposition
    illustrated the ‘City Beautiful’ movement? Be specific, always.
    Put all of your answers in your Initial Post: post it first. Please write, at minimum, 500 words.
    As in all of your assignments, show us that you’ve read and mastered the assigned readings

Battle of The Battle of Gazala The Western Desert Campaign of the Second World War

I need a paper written with Active voice, Notes and power point. must haves in paper, Define Battle, evaluate sources, Define strategic/operational setting, Describe Action, Relate Cause and
Effect:  Identify
Lessons Learned
1.    Relate causes to effects (Why)
2.    Explain Facts
3.    Address Depth
4.    Address Width
5.    Lessons Learned
6.    Insights/Analysis
Other.  I will attach grading scale and examples for power point and paper.  Please keep the paper the same set up as the example(format of example needs to stay intact)  as that is what I’m asking for, this isn’t a essay, but will require research to complete this!  ADP 7-0 may help with understanding war fighting functions.  the Class power point kind of gives a idea of body of paper and what needs to go into it.  I don’t need a crazy power point slide show like the battle slide example. pictures and text is fine.  They really over did this power point.

Extrasolar Planets

Extrasolar Planets. In recent years there have been a number of planets discovered outside of our solar system. Write a paper that summarizes these discoveries. How are these objects found? How many new planets have been found? Are they similar to planets found in our solar system? What are the proposed classification schemes for these objects and how do those classifications describe how exoplanets vary in size, mass, and orbital locations? Are any likely to harbor life?
