A Perfect Education
There are many ideas as to what constitutes an ideal education. A number of factors come together to make an ideal education. Parents have to be concerned with the education of their children. Teachers must be completely devoted to their students' educations. Students must have faith in their teachers and the education which they are receiving. Students, parents and teachers are the key elements in a model education. A good relationship among the three parties is essential to a good education.
Parents are an important ingredient to the perfect education. Parents who aren't involved in their children's education only impede the efforts made by teachers and students to create a good education. These parents are oftentimes uninterested with their children's education as a whole. To achieve perfection in the educational system, parents have to take an active role in that education. Parents who don't include themselves in their children's education aren't always informed about the student's progress, aren't aware of the current curriculum, and don't have any idea of the student's strengths and weaknesses in school. An involved parent is informed and sometimes included in the decision-making process. Parents who take an active role are kept informed of the progress made by their children. The parents know the curriculum and assist the children with their nightly studies, and can discuss their children's feelings about education.
Devoted teachers are extremely important to a perfect education. The teacher is just about the most important of the three parties necessary to create a model education. Teachers have the responsibility of forming good relationships with both students and parents. Teachers must also be able to effectively communicate with both parents and students in order to ensure that there are no misconceptions or confusions about the children's educations. A good teacher is aware of any special needs that certain children may have and is able to help those children adjust to the curriculum accordingly. Although it may seem obvious, teachers need to be patient and empathetic when dealing with his or her students. The vast majority of teachers already possess these qualities. Many students, however, have complained of teachers that appear to have "no time" for their students. Teachers with an unenthusiastic attitude relay a negative feeling back to their students and that can create problems in the classroom. As mentioned earlier though, people usually won't become teachers if they are uninterested in providing an excellent education to their students.
Harper Lee's novel To Kill a Mockingbird was published in the year of 1960, and is one of the few American classic novels awarded the Pulitzer Prize. The racism that is prevalent in many southern American towns in the 1930s is brought to life with profound imagery in To Kill a Mockingbird. There are several characters in the book, yet the true main character is the narrator's father, Atticus Finch. He is a man of great integrity and intelligence. A very heroic figure in more ways than one, Atticus possesses traits like being principled, determined, and, more importantly, he teaches others. When looking at To Kill a Mockingbird, one can see that Lee uses lots of description, dialogue, and actions to portray Atticus as a heroic individual.
Medicare part A payment reimbursement is done through a Prospective payment system (PPS). Under the PPS Medicare payment is based on a predetermined, fixed amount. In order to determine the payment amount for a particular service different classification systems are used based on setting type 6. In fact, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid services (CMS) use separate PPSs all together for reimbursement to acute inpatient hospitals, home health agencies, hospice, hospital outpatient, inpatient psychiatric facilities, inpatient rehabilitation facilities, long-term care hospitals, and skilled nursing facilities 6. Since implementation of the PPS to each of these settings, healthcare providers (i.e. Physical Therapists) have faced many challenges.

Resume starts off by listing different ways of committing suicide. The ways of suicide listed adds a very dark tone to the poem, because you create images of trying suicide. Although the tone sounds dark, it eventually relives us. The poem ends happily, where the a...
The tension that existed between the U.S. and Russia during the years after WWII was not only a time that both countries patiently tried to keep the world from another war, but was also a time of great rivalry in the exploration of space. As both counties diligently experimented with plans for creating a way to get into the vastness of space, spies on both sides were already in place to steal those ideas. And so the space race begun. Both countries wanted to be the first to succeed so millions were spent as the world watched as the U.S. and Russia went head to head in a battle that would change the world forever.
made its first major advancement in the space race with its first monkey in space in 1949 which was sent up in an American V2 rocket (1). In the early 1960’s, America found itself falling behind in the space race and soon began to raise the funds for a space program. ”The Space Race,” suggest that U.S. President John F. Kennedy promised the world in 1963 that the U.S. would land a man on the moon before 1970, and they did (3).Further “The Space Race,” states that on 20 July 1969, American Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin were the first people on the moon, they arrived on Apollo 11, a rocket created by NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) and Werner Von Braun, a German who worked for NASA (4). Neil Armstrong’s famous quote, “one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind,” reminded America that they had accomplished exploring space, reaching the moon, and beating the Russians in the space race. In Addition, the article notes that the American astronauts became heroes loved by all Americans (“The Space Race”). The United States had done it; they had explored the final frontier and had done so by shooting for the stars figuratively and literally. The way the world saw the United States’ space program changed
The space race was the product of the Cold War. It was an effort to prove technological superiority but on the other hand, it was also feared on both sides that weapons of mass destruction will be placed in orbit. In 1957, the Soviet Union sent the 184 pound Sputnik 1 satellite into Earth’s orbit. It was the first artificial satellite and the first manmade object to be placed into Earth’s orbit. Following that, they also sent the first animal into space, Laika the dog. In 1958, the United Sates also launched their first satellite into orbit, dubbed Explorer 1. The Soviet space program advanced once again in 1959. The Soviet Union launched Luna 2, which was the first space probe to hit the moon. In April 1961, the Soviet Union had the ultimate success, sending the first human into space. The name of the Russian cosmonaut was Yuri Gagarin, who made a 108 minute suborbital flight in a Vostok 1 spacecraft. One month after that, Alan Shepard became the American in space aboard the Freedom 7 spacecraft. Continuing from there, each nation step...
The United States of America currently faces a predicament. The country appears divided when it comes to the dispute over the continuation of the great space race. Ever since NASA began, the association has made tremendous strides in the exploration of space. Established on October 1, 1958 by President Dwight D. Eisenhower, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration began operation. The administration is an executive branch agency responsible for the United States’ civilian space program and aeronautics and aerospace research. The mission statement of NASA is “to pioneer the future in space exploration, scientific discovery, and aeronautics research” (NASA). President John F. Kennedy continued President Eisenhower’s
Human space exploration had its beginning on October 4, 1957, when the Soviets launched Sputnik 1 into space. Sputnik was the first artificial satellite. The United States followed close behind, launching Explorer 1 into orbit in early 1958. The Soviet Union was also first to launch a man into space, when on April 12, 1961, Yuri Gagarin became the first human to orbit the earth on Vostok 1. Again, the United States followed shortly after when Alan Shepard made a suborbital flight, becoming the first American in space. The United States then followed with its first orbital flight when John Glenn went to space on February 20, 1962. President John. F Kennedy, the set a new goal for the United States, which was putting a man on the moon by the end of the decade. This goal was realized on July 20, 1969, when Neil Armstrong stepped onto the moon. The next great leap was the Apollo-Soyuz project, where for the first time, a space mission involved more than one nation. During the 1960’s and 70’s, unmanned spacecraft were being sent to the Moon and Mars, as communication and navigation. Also by the 1970’s, communications and navigations satellites were being used every day. Beginning in 1981 and up to 2011, the Space Shuttle Program allowed for reliable use of space transport by both civilian and military operations. With the Space Shuttle came the International Space Station, which acts as a research laboratory in low earth orbit. (A Brief History of Space Exploration)
Successful teachers develop the whole child by making integrated efforts to promote their student’s academic, social and emotional learning. Children need to be aware of themselves and others; make responsible decisions, and be ethical and respectful of the people around them.
Being a teacher is not an easy task as many people could think. To be a teacher does not only imply to know the subject to be taught, it also includes being willing to constantly improve oneself integrally, as much as updating the resources and materials one uses in teaching. Reflecting and analyzing over and over again the best way to teach to learn and how to make students to extend what has been learned. The many hours spend in the classroom will never be enough to plan lessons, prepare materials, review pupils tasks and exams, as well, all the administrative requirements one has to cover for whatever institution we work. Besides all this a good teacher, a professional one, will have to find the time to keep preparing to improve oneself.
In this paper I am going to present an theoretical school district, school, and a classroom as examples of the ideal that our educational system should strive to achieve. The philosophy my schools will be based on is one of equality. Every single child will have an opportunity to receive the best possible education. However, we will never lower our standards for the sake of equality. Each child will be pushed to his or her personal best, not an average standard.
Parent involvement is one of the most influential aspects of student motivation. The parents are the initial teachers of the child before the child goes to school and encounters education through a teacher. If a parent is completely engaged in the learning process with a child, there can be growth between the child and the parent simultaneously. The parents set an example for the child, so that the child understands that help is in the classroom and at home. Alma Wright, a first and second grade teacher, believes that parents in the classroom are a good way to stimulate children. She says, “Their active participation is a positive influence. The school is open for parents to share their talents and motivate their children” (Drew, Olds, and Olds, 1974, p. 71).
To conclude, my research shows a clear link between parental involvement and children performing better in school. Children who's parents are involved in their education are showing better performance and are achieving higher grades. They also show better behaviour, more enthusiasm, ambition and higher levels of engagement. compared with children who's parent are not involved in their education. My research also shows that parental involvement has great benefits for both children and parents in many ways, so much so that the most effective schools are those who encouraged parents to be involved.
Parental involvement promotes the social growth of a child. Children whose parents are involved in their education have many advantages. They have better grades, test scores, long-term academic achievement, attitudes and behavior than those with disinterested mothers and fathers (Gestwicki, 2001). Parents becoming involved in their child's schooling creates extra sources of social constraint to influence the child's behavior (McNeal, 2001). For example, parents talking to their children and becoming involved in the school conveys a message to the child of education being important. Parents should be talking with your children's teacher and letting her know about your family. The more she knows about your child, the better she will be able to connect with your child.
