Dress codes in schools are limiting kids from expressing their creativity and personality, can be costly if the dress code is strict, are not always enforced uniformly, and dress code violation punishments can take away the focus from students education. Many of these school dress codes can range from very strict, such as a uniform, or casual, where students can wear anything that does not break the dress code. A recent study of more than 135,000 niche users showed that 48% of people’s schools have a moderate dress code and only 2% have no restrictions on the dress code. At Helias Catholic, a local high school in Jefferson City, they have a strict uniform. Along with many other private schools that require a strict uniform. According to the Helias Catholic article Dress Code, “Students not in compliance with the dress code with be given a demerit and a $10 fine per offense. (see blue jeans and athletic shoes days below). Students will not be permitted to attend class unless they are wearing appropriate clothing. That may involve a phone call to parents to deliver appropriate clothing, a trip to the bookstore to purchase appropriate clothing which will then be billed to the student’s account, or, with parental and administrative approval, a student may be permitted to drive home to change. Any class work missed while taking action to comply with the dress code is unexcused and the work missed, including...

...HEALTH PROMOTION CAMPAIGN Student’s name Course Date Public health campaign The Chilean society has been rapidly changing in the last few decades during a period of rapid economic growth. The country has made incredible development over the preceding decade in terms of improving its citizen’s quality of life. Since 1990s, Chile has experienced a track record on the basis of poverty reduction and robust growth. However, Chile only performs well in a few well-being measures, and it ranks low in a wide range of topics in relation to other countries in the Better Life Index. It is, therefore, essential to examine the changes that have taken place in the people’s quality of life with specific emphasis on the well-being of Chilean children. The emotional well-being of a child is essential for their growth as well as great learning in the classroom surrounding. This paper aims at exploring the manner in which schools and communities can support a child’s well being with emphasis on a public health campaign that raises awareness on children’s wellbeing through images drawn by them. In Chile, child protection is an essential social issue. In response to a study in 2000 whose results showed that 74% of children who live in Chile were ill-treated in their homes, the Metropolitan South Health Service in conjunction with the municipalities’ primary care units of South Santiago came up with a comprehensive interventions program. This program aimed at strengthening...

...Will The Advent of Online Intermediaries Diminish the Need for Travel Agents Totally in the Near Future? Erin Toh Temasek Polytechnic Abstract This paper will focus on the comparison between Retail Travel Agencies (TA) and Online Travel Agents/Intermediaries (OTA); and how the rise of technology has affected the business model and operations of traditional agents. Traditional TA in this paper refers loosely to those with a brick and mortar store, selling travel related services with human touch; while OTA are also selling travel related services, but without a brick and mortar store and solely relies on internet as a selling medium (Bottomley, 1997). The paper will start with an overview of the booming travel industry, followed by the main challenges facing the travel industry, namely labour crunch and human touch, discussed in the context of TA and OTA. An analysis of current consumers behaviour factors as identified by Zhou, Dai, and Zhang (2007), affecting purchase decisions will also be discussed. In addition, traditional TA roles have evolved throughout the years to offer differentiated services in order to keep within the competition. The distribution of travel products has undergone changes and in order to remain competitive, TA must take a page out of OTAs, adapt to technology and online platforms in order not to be rendered obsolete.

...The Role of Information and Communication Technology in Language Teaching and Learning In University Education Introduction: In 2000, Nigeria developed a policy on Information Technology (IT), with the aim of making Nigeria an IT adapted country in Africa and also a leading player in the use of ICT as an implement for sustainable development and global competitiveness. Since then Information and Communication Technology has been on the lips of every academic. The world is about to leave behind anyone that is not ICT compliant. ICT has various forms and roles which it performs in learning, especially in the teaching and learning of language. It is a powerful tool which can take the form of texts, pictures, tables, graphs, emails, fax, chat groups, discussion groups, SMSs, socializing portals, dictionaries, e-encyclopaedia, Power Point presentations, websites and audio-videos, etc. It can play instructional roles which include making learners feel more relaxed to learn various topics and tasks and making them active as learning is technologically based. The problem which we have identified in the use of ICT in tertiary education is lack of infrastructure and trained manpower (personnel) to use the ICT tools in teaching and learning. Most lecturers, technologists and students who are supposed to use the ICT tools are ignorant of what they are and their uses. Previous researches on ICT have focused on the hardware, software, professional development and support services....
