...What student likes waking up at six in the morning everyday for five days a school year? Who likes going to bed super early? Definitely not teenagers. High school classes should begin later in the day and end later in the day, because; students will be more willing to learn, no one would sleep during instruction, and teenagers will have a much better attitude. First, students are more willing to learn the lesson. All teenagers will be eager for class to begin the learning process. Sleeping longer can make the brain function better and more clearly, making it easier to learn. Students will be on time to school, and won't be tardy because of sleeping in the next day. Many students skip school to sleep in more, and that causes them to miss...

...Narrator: Listen to a conversation between a student and a receptionist at the Registrar's Office on the first day of the semester. Student: Excuse me, I'm supposed to be having my physics class in the science building, but no one's in the classroom. Could you tell me where the class is? Physics 403 — has it been moved? Receptionist: Well, there's a room assignment sheet on the bulletin board outside this office. Student: Yeah, I know, but my class isn't listed there. There must be some kind of mistake or something. Could you look it up, please? Receptionist: Hmmm... ok, let me check on the computer. It's physics, right? Wait, did you say physics 403? Student: Yeah. Receptionist: Er…I'm sorry, but it says here that it was cancelled. You should have got note letter from the Registrar's office about this. Student: What? I've never got it. Receptionist: Are you sure? 'Cause it says on the computer that the letter was sent out to students a week ago. Student: Really? I should have got it by now.

...School Should Start Later I think that kids need a break from school, because this generation is full of stress and I think that one of the main reasons is because of school. At least once a week like Fridays we should have a shorter day in school. I have a couple of reasons why we should have a shorter day on Friday and some expert opinion on why we should start later. What CNC says about stress in school. CNC says that Young people experience stress at a high rate, and females more than males, an extensive Associated Press/MTV survey shows. A similar divide exists in terms of fears and safety: Girls and young women are less likely to feel safe in their neighborhoods and in school. The source of stress changes as we get older, the survey...

...School Times Should Start Later It is often said that the early bird gets the worm, but that is not the case for school start times. Many schools across the country are having adolescents wake up at the wee hours of the morning to get ready and go to school. Waking up so early is not always beneficial. Although some people do believe that it is efficient. It may seem that pushing back the school start time will push afterschool extracurricular activities to later in the day or that later school start times will defeat its main purpose- students getting more sleep. School start times should be later because it improves adolescents’ health, students’ will perform better academically, and it can increase the safety of the community. Our bodies...

...Gabrielle Anderson Mrs. Marchbanks LAL102-25 4 December 2014 Moberly Adolescents Would Benefit by Starting School Later Morning after morning I find myself fighting the same battle, getting my son out of bed. Many times, I think he is awake and walk away only to come back and find he is snuggled back under is covers sleeping soundly. This doesn’t typically make for a good morning for either of us. In my own rush to get ready and out the door to work, my frustration builds. It is very difficult to hide frustration at times. He picks up on the stress and is put on the defensive while he is in his own rush to get ready and out the door. My frustration always came from a very practical standpoint. This young man is 18 years old, why can he not wake up to the six alarms he has set? He used to do such a good job at getting himself up, what happened? I would compare him to myself as a teenager. I didn’t have anyone to make sure I got out of bed and to school on time, I was responsible for myself. I knew it wasn’t right to compare two people, everybody is different. I then started thinking about the situations. What things in his life are different than mine at the time? There are many, but one that really stood out. I started school at 8:30 a.m. His school starts an hour earlier. I only did a little research at the time, and it showed that teenagers, in general, require more sleep. I also talked to a few of my son’s friends and their parents. Krista Carden, a senior...

Abuja email: rosemaryochanyaogbodo@yahoo.com Abstract The problem most students have that contributes to their poor performance in tests and examination is lack of proper study habit. For an excellent performance, there is need for the student to form good study habit. A student, who wants to study well, needs to choose a suitable place for his studies. Where to study is as important as what to study and how to go about studying. Productive study habits require learners to prepare personal time-table for themselves allocating a certain length of time for a particular subject, depending on how difficult each subject is. Different methods of studying are well explained here. Key Words: Counselling, Study habits, Reading habits, Education Introduction In School, high academic performance has been attributed to students‟ effective study habits.

...arts. Some students in schools where the arts are an integral part of the academic program tend to do better in school than those students where that is not the case. It will also show why it is so important to have art and music classes in the elementary schools. It will also show how the teachers can help develop cognitive skills by using the arts in their lesson plan. They can intertwine the creative arts curriculum with other subject such as reading; math and science to develop better studying, concentration and listening skills. Studies will show that children need expressionism with the other subjects to complete their learning process. The review will show why the arts need to be implemented back in the curriculum of elementary schools. We have the opinions of others, that younger school children should be required to study math language; science and history are those people who think it may not be necessary to learn art and music. Contrary to those people's viewpoint, my strong opinion regarding that statement is that younger school children have to be required to study art and music. This literature review may point out that art and music play unique roles in our society. We can see art or hear music almost everywhere in our lives. For instance, art exists in our lamps, in our bottles, in our computers, or even in nature. Also, we can find music in restaurants, in concerts, in our phone rings, or even in the chirps of birds hopping on the...

...competition. Strategic Management (BUAD 497) is an integrative and interdisciplinary course in two important respects: 1. The course assumes a broad view of the environment that includes competitors, buyers/consumers, suppliers, technology, economics, capital markets, and government both locally and globally. It assumes that the external environment is dynamic and characterized by uncertain changes. In studying strategy, this course draws together and builds on all the ideas, concepts, and theories from your functional courses such as Accounting, Economics, Finance, Marketing, Organizational Behavior, and Statistics. However, it is much more than a mere integration of the functional specialties within a firm. 2. The course takes a general management perspective. It views the firm as a whole, and examines how policies in each functional area are integrated into an overall competitive strategy. We designed this course to develop the “general management point of view” among participants. This point of view is the best vantage point for making decisions that affect long run business performance. The key strategic business decisions of concern in this course involve determining and shaping organizational purpose to evolving opportunities, creating competitive advantages, choosing competitive strategies, securing and...

His father was Elias Disney, an Irish-Canadian, and his mother, Flora Call Disney, was German-American. Disney was one of five children, four boys and a girl. He lived most of his childhood in Marceline, Missouri, where he began drawing, painting and selling pictures to neighbors and family friends. In 1911, his family moved to Kansas City, where Disney developed a love for trains. His uncle, Mike Martin, was a train engineer who worked the route between Fort Madison, Iowa, and Marceline. Later, Disney would work a summer job with the railroad, selling snacks and newspapers to travelers. Disney attended McKinley High School in Chicago, where he took drawing and photography classes and was a contributing cartoonist for the school paper. At night, he took courses at the Chicago Art Institute. When Disney was 16, he dropped out of school to join the army but was rejected for being underage. Instead, he joined the Red Cross and was sent to France for a year to drive an ambulance. EARLY CARTOONS When Disney returned from France in 1919, he moved back to Kansas City to pursue a career as a newspaper artist.

...There is an on-going debate in the Caribbean about whether sex education should be taught in schools. The questions of who, why and is it appropriate are still unanswered. The statistics every year shows the rate of teenage pregnancy and the number of teens having sex is escalating in the Caribbean. The percentage of births that take place during adolescence is about 18% in Latin America and the Caribbean (WHO, 2016). Conservatives normally believe that abstinence should be the only policy taught in schools, while liberals feel that statistics shows an increase in risky behaviour amongst teens indicates a need for sex education in the school system. The former Minister of Education Dr. Gopeesingh said, “More than 2, 500 teenage pregnancies...
