...Getting a Good Grade to Play? Imagine this, a star player for football. He’s the best player on the team but his grades are terrible. He’s on the field and he’s a defensive tackle. He goes in for the hit on another player, and he leads with his helmet. Causing a foul and a spinal injury. He gets rushed to the hospital and the doctors say he can never play again. Now this man is hurt and can never play again, and may likely not get into a collage because of his grades. He’s in trouble. Some people may say that players shouldn’t have to have good grades but think of this situation, this man is going to have to work very hard to get back into the life that he wants. Getting into a College Another situation where this had occurred was with...

...Dear meyzeek, By: Brian Scott My issues to all the kids in the world, kids your age don’t like to read or write. I say don't the authors make reading and writing interesting. Because I think kids would see the fun in reading and writing plus at the time kids would be gaining knowledge and having fun at the same time. First, do you know these kids out here on the street because they dropped out of school as soon as they could because they can’t read or write on the skill level they were supposed to be on. And kids were probably got bullied and teased. The reason they probably didn’t find the fun or interest in reading and writing. People these days that drop out of school always go out on the street and selling dope trying to get paper. And they would get shot, like a policeman did to Michael Newby and got shot coldblooded. Secondly, if kids these days would read and write more they could achieve a goal once in their life. They would be proud and would feel good about themselves knowing they could achieve something in life. And another thing if your parents tell you to read just do it because you’re gaining more knowledge and it’s fulfilling your mind not theirs. And they tell you to read because they love you and want you to live a better life. I know that reading and writing is not fun but the authors could make books that maybe you like sports or music. Or maybe in school whoever makes that writing prompts make them on something you would like to write about...

...INTRODUCTION It is true that the level of student’s learning in academics may be portrayed by the grades he earns for a period of learning has been done. We can say that the grades of a student indicate how much learning he gained. If a learner earns high grades it is concluded that they may also have learned a lot a while low grades indicate lesser learning. But no students have the same way of studying. Others may have put on really hard in reading books or memorizing statements and definitions while others do not; but in the end they almost have the same grades. This may conclude that we have different styles and habits in gaining learning. Some of us need to be motivated and sometimes rewards could be so useful. While others, on the other hand, treat reading like drinking coffee that they would not waste emotional factors and stuffs to motivate them. Truthfully, in each student’s study habits, it may be good or bad, these still contributes to the whole aspect of a students’ performance. There are many study habits that we can surely use to have an effective learning. Yes we may be different and our customs in studying may differ but still we use techniques to cope up with lessons we should ponder on. A learning style is an individual’s preferred way of learning. When an instructor’s style matches a student’s learning style, the student typically experiences greater satisfaction and a more positive attitude toward the course. Thus...

...Reading Competencies of Grade 1 Pupils of Kids At Heaven Christian Academy by Almira B. Delos Reyes Master of Arts in Education Major in Educational Administration Abstract This study aimed to observed the development of the pupils in Kids At Heaven Christian Academy reading comprehension skills during this period. Four measurements were conducted during this period, and four tests were used as indicators. . 1. Introduction There is not an area in the school curriculum that does not demand an ability to read. Reading skills are an important tool that pupils need to become academically successful. Good readers are better students than poor readers in every subject area.Even when a pupil is studying practical or mathematical subjects he or she has to read instructions before starting to solve the task. When reading a text the goal is to understand its content. It is a process that exceeds decoding, and includes comprehension processes of the word, sentence, and text level. A child who does not learn to read and comprehend in the early school years has severe difficulties also in studying other school subjects. (Bowyer-Grane & Snowling 2005, 190; McGee & Johnson 2003, 49.) An important goal of literacy teaching is to awaken pupil’s interest in language and literature and also give them a lasting positive attitude towards reading. The aim is to support the development of pupil’s ability to read, interpret and use different texts. Each pupil should adopt...

...of building positive relationships from Savage, T.V. & Savage, M.K. (2010), can help in gaining the student’s respect and in believing in their abilities in my classroom. Students will also feel comfortable in the classroom, building on their self-efficacy to succeed. Treating students with respect gives them a sense of belonging. With that belonging and trust, students will have an environment that they want to be in, creating a classroom they can succeed in. According to Savage (2010) creating predictability and consistency in the classroom is important at the secondary level. Having predictability in the classroom will help with student’s self-efficacy because they know what they are coming into and can feel confident and comfortable in the classroom. Being consistent fits in with predictability because the students need to know that what the teacher says will stay the same. If a teacher is consistently changing rules and expectations then students will lose trust because they won’t know what the teacher is expecting of them. Self-management In order to promote self-management, I would use French and Ravens’ (1959) approach of Reward, Powers and Authority. Giving rewards or incentives can promote self-management. The students need to have respect for the teacher giving the reward, so I plan on gaining the trust and respect by building positive relationships. After gaining their respect, the praise I give the students will be meaningful to them. When students...

...century, the height for seeking equality has skyrocketed. However, using the “equality” card in these type of situations is not fair at all. What ways would a regular citizen be unable to attend postsecondary education? The most popular reason is because of money. Yet, the prices continue to go up every year. If a family of illegal immigrants can afford these ridiculously high tuitions fees for their children, or their children are working hard and getting good enough grades on their own accord then they definitely should be able to attend the school they wish to go to. Most unauthorized immigrants have a hard time finding jobs as most companies require paperwork with proof of residency. To think most of these immigrants can afford to send a child to college or university easily is almost ridiculous. So most of these children work hard at school and excel in their studies to get the scholarships they deserve. To take that all away because students lawfully living on United States ground cannot afford it, or get good enough grades to be accepted is in no way fair at all. To seek for equality, shouldn’t the minority be the ones bringing up situations? To level it out and make their selves feel equal? Yet the majority’s way of fixing a problem seems to be kicking out the minority. Illegal immigration is a serious topic, but to...

...Chapter II Review of Related Literatures and Studies This chapter presents the related literature and studies that is relevant and significant to the current studies. This presents a survey of related literature and studies which is reviewed by the researchers to be understood and help the researchers to gather more information. Analysis of Students’ Performance in Junior Secondary School Mathematics Examination in Bayelsa State of Nigeria The finding of this study showed that students’ performance in 2006 JSS Mathematics test was high. Comparing the hypothetical pass mark of 20.00 with the students’ mean score of 28.59 this indicated that the students performed very well. This result is in agreement with Linn (1965), Anderson (1942) and Akpan (1989) who reported that if an examiner has a favourable attitude towards a particular subject, then this will reflect in his performance in that subject. This is to say that since mathematics has been made compulsory and a pre-requisite for admission into the senior secondary, hence the students have developed a favourable attitude towards the subject resulting in their high performance. On whether performance is influenced by sex, the result showed that male students obtained higher mean score than the females with the calculated t-value significant. This result is in line with those of Fememe and Sherman (1977), Grambs (1972), Comber and Keeves (1973), Tyler (1961), Fin et al. (1979) and Maccoby and Jacklin (1975) who all...

...Assess the view that social class differences in educational achievement are the result of internal processes such as labelling. Many sociologists would agree school processes such as labelling have an effect on a child’s educational achievement. However there are many other school processes that cause underachievement. To label someone is to attach a meaning or definition to them. For example, teachers may label a student as smart, thick, hardworking or troublemaker. Studies have shown that teachers often attach such labels regardless of the pupil’s actual ability or attitude. Instead they label pupils on the basis of stereotyped assumptions about their class background. Becker carried out an important study of labelling. He carried out interviews with 60 Chicago high school teachers. His findings were that they judged pupils according to how closely they fitted an image of the ‘ideal pupil’. Pupils work, conduct and appearance were key factors influencing teacher’s judgments. Middle class children were seen as the closest to ideal by teachers however lower working class children were seen as furthest away from it because they regarded them as badly behaved. Cicourel and Kitsuse’s study of educational councilors in an American high school shows how such labelling can disadvantage working class students. Cicourel and Kitsuse found inconsistencies in the way the councilors assessed students’ suitability for courses. Although they claimed to judge students according...

...Peace School. In first Grade, I learned basic grammar and spelling. In Second Grade, my pencil stayed on the paper continually as I wrote in cursive for the first time. It was very exciting and I loved being able to write faster and therefore get assignments done quicker. Math was hard and challenging because each day the class had to complete 100 math problems in a certain amount of time. When third grade arrived, it was on to book reports and short stories in literature. One book report each month was required and I got the choice of presenting my report with a shoebox presentation or poster. There were lots of interesting books I explored and a lot of unique topics I was discovering. Fourth Grade contained more homework, but I got through it. At...

...By doing the self-assessment, I learned that I am good at adopting life long learning, and discovering self-motivation. On both areas I scored an 80. I think I scored higher on these areas because I have always been a very independent learner. In school and in life if I did not know how to do something I have almost always been able to figure it out with little to no help. I was not surprised at all that I scored higher on these then other areas. I am the type of person that likes to learn something new every day. I do not require other people being on me about doing the things I need and want to do. All I really need is someone to point me in the direction to learn what I need to learn to be able to do the things I want to do in life. I did not disagree with these scores at all. The areas that I scored the lowest on were employing interdependence, with a 52, gaining self-awearness, and mastering self-management, both with scores of 67. I don't think a 67 is really that low but they could be better. I think I scored lower on employing interdependence because like I said before I have almost always been able to figure things out with little to no help from others. Growing up I did not really have a support group, that had the abilities to help me. My mother grew up with dyslexia, but graduated from high school with help from her friends and her mother. My stepfather has an 8th grade education, due to the family situations he went through growing up. I don't blame them. I think...

...EFFECTS OF WORKING STUDENTS AND NON-WORKING STUDENTS TO THEIR ACADEMIC GRADES: AS PERCEIVED BY financial management student Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 Background of the Study In the present modern period, education gives us knowledge of the world around us. It develops in us a perspective of looking at life. It helps us build opinions and have points of view on things in life. Education is the process of gaining information about the surrounding world while knowledge is something very different and it makes us capable of interpreting things right. Nowadays, every students need to finish their education so they will get a better future but unfortunately some students has no capability to enrol in a good university or institution. Other students try to finance their money by having a part time work to pay for college. Non-working students defined as a person who takes more than 12 credit hours, or the equivalent, at a post-secondary institution in a school term. We can consider that full time student is students who focus in his academics and don’t have a part time work. Working student defined as an individual who is studying but working part time at the same time. Working students have to work harder to compensate their working time with their studies. It has been established by academics in a variety of disciplines that the proportion of college students who work while school is in session has been steadily increasing since the 1960s (Henke, Lyons and...
