An evaluation method I would use to ensure that my students have an understanding of my behavioral expectations is to have a poster up on my wall that is a reminder of the classroom expectations and pointed out to the students who are not working on the warm-up. The classroom expectations are: RESPECT: your teacher, your peers, and your school, THINK: ask good questions, use your resources, open your mind to new ideas, PARTICIPATE: volunteer in class discussions, do your class work and home work, share your ideas with others.

...intent on enforcing good morals by using the most extreme enforcement. There is virtually no conception of a right to personal privacy. Their laws were based on a literal reading of the Old Testament and were extremely harsh. For example, in Connecticut, blasphemy, witchcraft, adultery and rape are punished with death. It is a capital crime for a son to say anything disrespectful of his parents. Tocqueville wants us to focus not on these laws, which he calls "bizarre and tyrannical" (Tocqueville, 27). Instead, he points out that these tyrannical laws were passed with the "free, active participation of all the interested parties themselves, and that the morals were even more austere and puritan than the laws" (Tocqueville 27). It is the fact that these communities were self-governing and independent, with relatively high levels of popular participation in the making of laws, which Tocqueville finds interesting. Even more importantly, Tocqueville points out that it is the strict morals of the people in New England that made these high levels of political participation possible in the first place....

...and encouragement are defining factors for the success of all parties involved. In addition to inclusion for people with disabilities, BROP takes into consideration Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, “BORP is committed to: Identifying the needs of low-income and minority populations so that their needs may be addressed wherever possible; Promoting the full and fair participation of individuals in low-income and minority communities when making decisions about what programs and services to offer and how to implement those programs and deliver those services; Striving to ensure meaningful access to programs, services and activities by persons with limited English proficiency; and Complying fully with the requirements of Title VI and the Department of Transportation’s and Federal Transit Administration’s implementing regulations, policies, guidelines, and circulars.” This project also recognized the need for transportation for those with disabilities. Younger participants in the sports and recreation programs are often too young to use public transportation. Also, many are low income, and the parents may not have the means or capabilities to drive. Because of this BORP provides transportation to their participants. Transportation benefits include: “increased access for individuals with disabilities in group sports and recreation activities; teams of disabled youth and families with disabilities will be able to travel in groups in a manner that is equal to non-disabled...

No problem: conditions are acceptable and there is no need for preventative actions. Slight problem: cold related problems are found that impairs the conditions at the workplace. Effects however are judged as slight to moderate and corrective actions and not immediately required. The research was carried out in a large and modern freeze dry coffee factory in Colombia, located at an elevation of 1360m and with an average temperature of 26®c.

...Outline and evaluate one or more explanations of why people obey. One of the main reasons that people obey is the feeling of relinquishing personal responsibility. During the course of Milgram’s experiment, many participants enquired about responsibility; who would be to blame if any harm came to the learner? In many cases, informing the participant that the experimenter was completely responsible was reassurance enough to encourage the participants to continue with the deadly electric shocks. In many cases, where harm has come to someone as a result of obedience, the perpetrators have justified their actions by the lack of responsibility. The participants most likely to obey are those who feel they have relinquished personal responsibility to an authoritative figure, and obedience levels are often diminished when the rate of personal responsibility has increased. It has also been suggested that obedience levels drop radically when participants are informed that they must accept full responsibility for their actions. One way that we can prove that this is the case, is by looking at variations of Milgram’s experiment. In the initial experiment, the ‘teacher’ could not see the pain that they were supposedly inflicting on the ‘learner,’ only hear them. They felt responsible when they heard the cries of anguish, but as the experimenter had accepted responsibility, many people continued administering the shocks. However, in a similar experiment where the ‘learner’ was in the room...

Marcus Psychol Sport Exerc. 2008 May ; 9(3): 231–245. doi:10.1016/j.psychsport.2007.04.002. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2390920/pdf/nihms42341.pdf The purpose of the study was to see if there is a connection between a person’s emotional response to moderate physical exertion and their likelihood of that person continuing to be an active person later. The study was conducted using mostly white female participants who were considered to be sedentary. They were given a grading scale by which to quantitatively express their personal sensation as well as their level of perceived exertion. The participants were placed on a treadmill and worked until their heart rate was 65% of the target rate for each participant according to age. They were then surveyed 6 and 12 months later. The study found that participant who had a positive response to the original bout of physical activity were more likely to be physically active 6 and 12 months later. The authors acknowledged many limitations of this study such as small sample size and the use of age predicted heart rate expectations. The use of a survey may lead to sketchy results also. The results and the discussion were consistent due to the fact that the authors made no wide spread claims resulting from the data acquired during this study. This study implies to me that if physical activity was more fun and less suffering...

...Issue in the implication of the concept of tabarru’ Tabarru’ is derived from the word tabarra’a which carries the meaning of contribution, gift, donation or charity. In technical sense, it is a unilateral declaration of intent, which is a contract with a particular nature in Islamic commercial law. Tabarru is basically to give a favor to the recipient without any specific consideration in return. Unlike the exchange contract, this type of contract is valid and enforceable in Islamic commercial law even without consideration. According to Dusuki at el., (2012), the definition of Tabarru’ is essentially a contribution or donation which entails no return but rather a reward from Allah alone. By the definition, we identified to important pillars which is the intention to perform Tabarru and the absence of counter-value. If any or both of the two are absent it is not considered as Tabarru’. The Prophet (s.a.w) said: “He who retracts his hibah is like the one who swallows what he vomits”. Thus, it makes it forbidden to retract the gift on whatever grounds or even to benefit from it in one way or other. Thus, the concept of Tabarru’ seems to apply that when the moment of a donor gives out his asset as Tabarru, he relinquishes his ownership to the second party who now takes full ownership and possession of the property or asset. However, the current practice in modified Wakalah model states that a donor or a participant can still be entitling to claim in the case of misfortune. Thus...

...Relationship formation Reward/need satisfaction theory suggests that we become attracted to people who evoke positive feelings as they provide direct reinforcement through operant conditioning. If the presence of an individual leads to a positive outcome, they will be perceived as more attractive. We are thus more likely to repeat these behaviours towards that individual, leading to the formation of a relationship. We also become attracted to people who are associated with positive events through classical conditioning. People who are associated with these positive events acquire positive value, increasing our attraction to them. For a relationship to commence & succeed, positive feelings should outweigh negative feelings. Griffitt & Guay provided support for the idea that we like some individuals because they provide direct reinforcement. Participants were evaluated on a creative task by an experimenter & were then asked how much they like the experimenter. The rating was highest when the participant was highly evaluated (i.e. rewarded) by the experimenter, showing that direct reinforcement can lead to attraction. The same study also supported the role of indirect reinforcement (association with positive events). Participants of the study had to rate an onlooker as well as an experimenter. The onlooker was also more highly rated when the participant had been positively evaluated by the experimenter, as the onlooker was associated with this positive event...
