...RATIONALE Some controversy remains about how the text messaging affect the learning of today’s youth. Generally, the use of text messaging is due to the popularity and also the common use of cellular phones in growing technological phenomenon. The information presented here represents the data from internet resources regarding how text messaging affects the elementary and high school students’ learning experiences. Since the research has examined the various information of the relationship of text messaging and students’ learning experiences. Text message can affect a person’s writing skills. They use inventive spellings and abbreviations in text. Thus, teenager’s writing skills have turned into sentence fragments because of the limited spaces that they put texts into sentence. There is the fear of that this “new language” may replaced the standard English and young people may not be able to use our language properly. When people send text to friends they put “c u l8ter” instead of “see you later”, Texters used this for send message quickly and shortening the words for ease does this. It is clear that as text messaging continues to grow as a favored form of social communication, so will more studies emerge to examine this form of technology more closely. It is hoped that this study has provided a clearer understanding of text messaging as it exists today. RATIONALE Some of the drivers have been shocked due to the high price gasoline.

OLAÑO Subject Teacher Submitted by: CHARISH JOY B. BAYOT 10-EINSTEIN March 2016 HISTORY OF VICES IN TEXAS The history of vice in the U.S. state of Texas has been an important part of the state's past and has greatly influenced its development. Vice activities, such as gambling and prostitution, have historically been a significant facet of both the state's culture and its economy. Law enforcement organizations have traditionally defined vice as including prostitution, gambling, alcohol and narcotics, and pornography. These activities, though always controversial, represented major influences in the state with some enterprises at times holding legendary status. The legal status of the individual activities has fluctuated substantially over time. Additionally during some periods individual communities and public officials have been accepting of many of these activities, even when they were illegal, because of corruption, because the activities were seen as inevitable, or often because the activities were economically important. Early Texas and the Republic of Texas Before the arrival of the European settlers in Texas, the plant peyote (peyotl in Nahuatl) had become a popular hallucinogenic among tribes in the Rio Grande Valley as well as parts of West Texas and Chihuahua. Tribes in the area included the Carrizo...

...CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Background of the Study The rate of students involved in bad vices such as smoking, hard drinking, gambling and sometimes illegal drugs, addiction in computer games and variety of gadgets are serious problems that need diplomatic actions. There are lots of reasons why the youth nowadays are being involved in bad vices. One of the major reasons per observation is the lack of quality relationship with their parents because a lot of parents are just being parents who provide material and physical needs and forget the needs of their children in terms of the emotional and moral aspects. High School senior students are driven to do bad things just to satisfy themselves with their bad vices, like stealing money from their parents, cutting their classes hours, getting into troubles in the community or even inside the school. These things may lead to even more unlikely things that they may even do notorious things to their people. The child-parent relationship is even gone worse because youths are being more and more stubborn while the parents are losing their temper and patience to understand the situation of their children. Parents tend to become stricter and they are being more authoritative to their children that may lead to a rebellion against them. Parents should not only be simply just a parent, but they also be a best friend to their children. They should spend more quality time with their family, talk to them intimately so they could...

...Case #1-Vice Part 1: Description - Article Attached Part 2: Explain Vice: In the broadest term vice can be a habit that is typically thought of as unacceptable by society. Vice, in minor practices, can be a bad habit, a defect, a fault, or a negative characteristic. In major practices it can be something more severe such as taking one’s life, committing fraud, or endangering oneself. If something is considered vice then it is viewed as wrong and improper. The opposite of vice is virtue, which is seen as positive practices, habits, and behaviors that are valued as moral excellence. Both characteristics’ can be seen in everyday life. For instance we see vice whenever we watch news reports on killing, stealing, and robbing. We also see vice in more minor everyday instances such as cheating on homework, running a red light, or cutting in line. Vice is a broad term because although one can commit minor acts of vice, one can also commit major acts of vice. Some can be forgivable, some not, but they all share the common trait that no matter how big or how small they are still wrong and society as a whole would not approve. Part 3: Explain how is vice present in this article Vice is present in this article because baby Riley’s parents willing committed wrongful acts towards an innocent baby. By freely choosing to let their nine month old baby starve, parents Justin and Brittany Alston, repeatedly performed behavior that society views as unacceptable. When baby Riley was found...

...It seems to be a "coming of age thing" when a student goes to college and ecounters vices such as drinking, unprotected sex and gambling. Such vices cannot be ignored anymore as to the more students seem to be detaching from their parents, they seem to be enjoying freedom too much. Some studies show that between non-college and those who are taking up college, drinking maybe quite a "thing" for college students when there are parties, events and other celebrations that can be thought of. Is this normal? A natural reaction to transitions might be the issue. From being under "rules" to the crossroads of the real life, things from the real life they might be experiencing might not come off good from the start. Such crossroads may be a time for experimenting, discovery and risky decisions. Although this might not apply to others, some of the college students who involve themselves in binge drinking, vices and even unprotected sex are either failing, dropping out or worse, ending up dead, making parents and administrators worried and that some of the laws and policies lack being implemented properly. Yes, there are deaths in students who have binge drinking and too much partying, this is caused by drinking and driving and other alcohol-related crimes. Is it because of kids' morality and views with drinking, peers and sex? Young people still need guidance, and the crossroads of their life like college, are one of the risky periods when they are tempted to try almost anything...

...highly honored and valued by God, it is uprightness. If there is anything that commands any universal appeal, honor, respect and appreciation, it is virtue. By that same token, if there is anything that has been gravely weakened and misunderstood, it is still the selfsame appellation, virtue. It saddens the heart noticing the intimidating compass in moral decadence, negligence of duties, perversion of sexual purity and the cause of justice, bribery, child abuse, kidnapping, greed, immoral acts, selfishness and other social vices. One in a state of wonderment is likely to say that virtually virtue has finally been extinct in our contemporary society. Morals have been thrown to the dogs. People in civil service, political office etc., who claim to be protecting the interests of the masses, have failed woefully. After they have elapsed their stay in their undeserving positions, they won’t want...

Borromeo, John Philip T. Sumpay, Jonathan S. September 2015 Common Vices of Maritime Education Students in Mariners Polytechnic Colleges Foundation: A Criticism Introduction Teen agers worldwide especially students in colleges have higher rate of having a vices in their life. There is undoubtedly much truth in this view. Large colleges certainly have a large ratio of dissolute or, put it less harshly, wild-students than smaller institutions. But this can be truthfully said of their vices. They are more gentlemanly and less vulgar than those practiced in country colleges. College students are commonly in desire to have fun. With this, one of the most usual thing college students do to have fun is through engaging in vices usually with peers. They have more affection and respect for their Alma Mater-more esprit de corps-more urbane manners. Students however, are not a class subgenres. They are what their instincts and surroundings make them. In the Philippines, there are many Colleges and Universities who are fully functional and outstanding in the field of Education. They are providing high quality standard of education in different Courses applied. College students in the Philippines are...

...In 1968 ecologist, Garrett Hardin, wrote The Tragedy of the Commons. The arguments that he made have been used This publication became a key argument for the privatization of shared or public recourses. Hardin uses an allegory of a shared pasture in a medieval peasant village to convey his message on self sabotage actions. He comes to the conclusion that the tragedy of the common is inevitable. In The Tragedy of the Commons, Garret Hardin asks his readers to, "picture a pasture open to all" (Hardin 1968, pg 1244). In this shared pasture, he argues that each peasant acting in their own interest would send as many cows to graze their as they could. So many cows would be sent to graze in that pasture that the land would be inevitably destroyed....

...concepts introduced in earlier chapters. Marc and Craig begin by taking the simplest example of raising a few thousand dollars and move on to greater feats like raising over a billion dollars to help victims of natural disasters. The authors begin by describing a school in Toronto that has dozens of obstacles that it faces on a daily basis. Among those issues are racial tension, frequent violence and gang problems. The authors described this school as a type of school that was thought of as “needing help rather than giving it.” The authors describe how the student body was inspired by a speaker from Free the Children and ended up raising over $30,000 to help several causes in Africa. The authors then begin talking about the “tragedy of the commons” and truly begin hitting on their point of UNITY. Through several concise examples readers learn how working together for the greater good is much more effective than simply working alone. Continuing with the theme of unity, the authors talk about an issue that hits very close to home for me; family values. I have written extensively in prior assignments about my close relationship with my family and I’m very glad to see that Marc and Craig hold similar views on this issue. The whole philosophy of Me to We begins at a very young age and a tight-knit family is a key element that harbors a vibrant...
