Student

tell the whole story of my independence, self-motivation, and determination as a student. Lacking in this equation are the challenges of being a student in one of the largest high schools in Texas, as well as participating in school activities that require time management to fit everything into a 24-hour day. Lamar teachers are often stretched to the limits to explain the curriculum due to the diversity of the student body. To fully understand the material, I have to research solutions…

APPLICATION QUESTIONS 1. It is the role of the Student Trustee to portray the "diverse and dynamic voice" of the student population regarding board-wide matters. How would you work with staff and the Board of Trustees to ensure that the voices of all students are heard around the Board table? I feel that communication is a vital part of being a student trustee, but it's not just a matter of communication with students, it's also important to ensure that information gets the attention it…

achieving and perfect grades are common words associated with a “Nerd” or a student who is excelling in every area of school. Everyone knows a 4.0 student because they're in every class of every school in the United States. A 4.0 student is a title put over a person who really just cares about their education and wants to excel and be the best they can possibly be in their classes. A few misconceptions surrounding these students would be that all they do is study, study and study some more…

child it was always my dream to own a salon called “A New Me”. When I was in eighth grade the cosmetology teachers came to talk to us about selecting Cosmetology as an elective for high school. We took a trip to Southwest High School to see what the students do in cosmetology, I knew from that point I needed to take the class. When I first started we did book work for the whole school year to learn Cosmo terms and tutorials from the Milady book. For the first semester we had to learn general…

Post 1:Principles for Fair Student Assessment Practices for Education in Canada "Assessment methods should be suited to the backgrounds and prior experiences of students. Assessment methods should be free from bias brought about by student factors extraneous to the purpose of the assessment. Possible factors to consider include culture, developmental stage, ethnicity, gender, socio-economic background, language, special interests, and special needs. Students' success in answering questions on a…

If I were at a recruitment event, I would want one of the messages for students and their parents to remember is that WSU encourages and supports each student to work hard in and outside of class in their studies, so that they not only maintain their grades, but also because this will open up doors for other opportunities like scholarships, Honors College, and organizations such as WSU Student Ambassadors. I want them to remember that there are different resources available to them…

When looking at the literature, it is apparent that there is international interest in student absenteeism. Everyone seems to be interested in student absenteeism and its implications and effects for the institutions, for the individual students, and for the college professors (Barlow & Fleischer, 2011). Absenteeism has been a common problem for universities for many years, yet this topic has not been getting the research attention that it deserves. Absenteeism in public high schools can affect…

All three students have strengths in being very observant in class. This notifies me that I need to engage the class is a discussion. A debate or Socratic seminar might work best for this class and especially these three students because of how vocal they are. However, their weaknesses and the ways in which these three learn are very different. I would never be able to pair Aiden and Logan because Aiden is dependent on another person, and Logan is independent and works best by working alone.…

the student’s individual differences affected the way that the teacher would interact with each student. It was obvious to me that the teachers knew about all of the norms of development and were guiding the students towards those norms in subtle ways. I learned that knowing the different stages is important, but what is more important is knowing how to apply that knowledge to each individual student, to know how you can help them develop. I definitely will look for a child care setting that…

false depiction. At the University of Wisconsin-Stout, student athletes on the Track and Field team are required to work hard to maintain good grades, relationships, networks, and the privilege and eligibility to be an NCAA Division III athlete. Ultimately, the key to achieving these things is communication. Effective communication is remarkably valued in my community because it helps us determine the difference between success and failure. Student-athletes use communication in various ways,…
