...Nowadays, teenage relationship is common. You would see teenagers holding hands in the amusement parks, corridors and even public vehicles. It almost became a trend in the teenage world. More often, relationship status becomes a statement in the popularity of a person, and the aliveness of one’s life. College life may serve as a challenging chapter of life to every student. College used to face different forms of life, like different struggles to face in a day to day basis. This is the age where the transitional phase in every student happens, in which time management is hard to handle. Many college students are involved in a romantic relationship, but involvement to this may just cause more stressors to handle. Studying is toxic and very exhausting, sometimes escaping from stress and relaxation is what a student is looking for. Teenagers look for moments where they can feel free and love. The feeling of love remedies the toxicity of what a student is experiencing. It lets a person escape from reality and live by its fantasy. But imagination just only brings happiness; people still live in reality thus resulting to poor performance. Thus, it definitely depends on the person who’s handling it. According to the study made by Matthew Kopfler, it says that, “Students in relationships tend to have a higher stress level when meeting deadlines on assignments and completing school work, but the study also stated that it depends on the student.” Ortigue...

In 2013, at least 610, 042 people were compelled to use contingency housing or to experience homelessness in one night according to National Alliance to End Homelessness (2014). These numbers reveal the significance of this issue in the United States since the commencement of 1980s after the Vietnam War. Homelessness issue started to grow visibly after reducing the mental health services and the housing budgets under the pretext of spending more for urbanization (Shaulis,...

... Both drivers, my dad and the student, quickly got out of their cars, but the damage was done. The bumper of my dad’s car was ripped away like a butterfly’s wing from a thunder storm. The student was at fault for not signaling as he changed lanes. Luckily, it was just a minor dent on both cars. The student begged my dad not to involve the insurance company and police because he was undocumented. The student feared the idea of him being deported back to his home country. My dad whispered with his tongue, clucking his cheeks, then looked at me with mystery, and wondered how the situation would turn out if I was undocumented. He decided it would be unnecessary to make this situation larger than it really was. As a result, my dad thought it was best to brush it off, which showed compassion, solidarity, and mutual aid towards the student. The situation was dealt between him and the student without involving rulers, police or the state; a kind of higher justice was reached as a result of my father’s and the student’s decision to use mutual aid to settle each other’s fate. This example merely explains how an anarchist acts. If you ask a conservative what they would do in this situation, she would report the accident because she believes in following the laws—and lumps trump morality. She would report the undocumented individual because the student is not supposed to be “here” in the first place. The situation would then be about the undocumented student breaking the rules of the “state...

...on how parental involvement affects students, explanations for why parents do not get involved, and what role both schools and teachers play in creating an atmosphere conducive to parents becoming actively involved in the educational process. Parental involvement refers to a parent or family members' participation and contribution to their child's schooling. These contributions can take place in or outside of the school, with the objective of improving a child’s learning. Parental involvement at home can include activities such as helping with homework or reading with the child. Involvement at school may include parents volunteering in the classroom or attending workshops. Parental involvement is vital to school reform. Although current educational policies and practices show a widespread support for parental involvement, how parents can become involved and the extent to which they should be involved has not always been made clear. However, one fact has remained certain; research on the effects of parental involvement has shown a consistent, positive relationship between parents' engagement in their child's education and student outcomes. Parental Involvement in Education Effects of Parental Involvement There are literally hundreds of books and journal articles available on the subject of parental involvement and the impact it has on a child’s education. I chose the issue of the effects of parent involvement on student achievement because it has become a...

...sexual assault and how alcohol and perceived vulnerability had an effect on it. The following research was a great example to show how much each of these effect the sexual assault rates. It was recently done in 2014, and it observed a group Scottish college students. The report supports a lot of research already done. Everyone knows that alcohol and sex do not go good together, since you cannot give consent. In the research they sent out a survey to about 7,200 college students. The survey included scales of personal sexual harassment and assault. Also, it included how their friends are vulnerable to sexual assault and had an AUDIT at the end. The AUDIT means Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test. The study was...

...Introduction Numerous research projects from (Eschenmann, 1991) and other scholars suggest that if teachers take the time to build relationships, they can motivate their students to learn. Further research (Whitaker, 2004) also suggests that teachers need to have a strong belief that building relationships are important to the motivation process. For that reason, there is a need to capitalize on these beliefs for the benefit of students. It is important that educators recognize the impact they have on their students (Eschenmann, 1991). Teachers have to ensure that they are meeting students’ needs, both academically and emotionally. Creating classroom environments that promote positive interactions can motivate students to channel their...

... This two-way connection allows us to affect everyone we interact with both physically and mentally. The new science of social intelligence should be thought of in terms of being intelligent not just about our personal and professional relationships, but also in them. Goleman explains that this involves expanding our focus in a way that looks beyond the individual to understand what really occurs when people interact, and to look beyond narrow self-interest to the best interests of others as well. Emotional Economy The realization that one person can trigger an emotion in another person or vice versa represents the powerful mechanism by which feelings are disseminated to others. Goleman classifies this as emotional contagion which is the emphasis of emotional economy. Emotional contagion comes in two forms; low road and high road. The low road is mental circuitry that operates in our subconscious at a very fast rate and tends to involve impulsive decision-making. The high road consists of mental circuitry that operates at the conscious level and is more structured, requires deliberate effort and tends to involve rational decision-making. Rapport Goleman conveys that one of the most basic, but important aspects of relationships involves rapport. He explains that rapport only exists between people and we see it when an interaction with another feels pleasant, engaged, and smooth. These initial feelings pass quickly, but...

...it that first attracts another person to another person? And what is it about that other person that makes you feel as though they are that one special person that you are destined to be with forever your soul mate? In this paper I will examine the views of several people who feel that how we communicate with one another has a direct effect on the nature of our relationships. Let me first begin by giving a definition for communication that I found in our textbook titled “Making Connections: Understanding Interpersonal Communications.” Sole, 2011, chapter 1, section 1.3 defines communication as” A process by which we share ideas or information with other people.” With that said let’s look at the views of one a graduate student by the name of Molly Ireland and psychologist James Pennebaker both of the University of Texas at Austin who reported in an article written by Bruce Bower for Science news titled” Shared Talking Styles herald new and lasting romances” that “ Conversation partners related use of function words such as pronouns, articles, conjunctions, prepositions and negations- augers well for mutual romantic interest and stable relationships.” Ireland and her colleague proposed in an upcoming Psychological Science article that “Unconscious verbal coordination of this sort, dubbed language-style matching by the researchers, signifies not how much two people like each other but how much each is paying attention to what the other says.” I happen to disagree with these findings...

...involves the exercising of power. What we have to begin by doing, therefore, is to define the concept of power (and understand the differing dimensions / aspects of power - coercive power, types of authority and so forth) and relate it to such ideas as: a. The social characteristics of the powerful and the powerless. b. The development of ideological frameworks that legitimise the exercise of power. c. The social effects / consequences of the exercising of power. Explicitly, in relation to politics and power there are two basic kinds of sociological question that we need to explore: a. Who rules in society? b. How is their power created, legitimised and reproduced? In social terms, power, almost by definition, involves the rule by the few over the majority and we have to understand the political processes (both Structural and Interpersonal) whereby power is legitimated (the process whereby power ceases to be nakedly coercive and becomes power that is based upon authority. Question: How would you define the concept of power? (Try to think of an example of a relationship based upon power (for example, making your little brother / sister into your personal slave) and "work...

Educators also highly value the cultivation of youngsters’ thinking strategies and styles which facilitate their learning performance and even career achievement. This study was conducted to identify the relationship among thinking styles (including positive thinking and negative thinking) and collaborative dispositions. Three self-rating instruments were employed to survey 901 college students’ experience as research data. A series of analyses on the reliability and validity of instruments were conducted to validate the measurement model. The SEM analysis results indicated the structural model and the influences of both thinking styles on the youngsters’ collaborative dispositions. In addition,...

...Fundamentals of Human Resource Management (HRM500) Assignment #1 – Hershey’s Sweet Mission Student: Cheryl L. Simpson Professor: Dr. William Clampitt 22 January, 2012 Recommend the redesign of Hershey’s performance management system to appeal to the diverse groups that it employs. (Bohlander & Snell, 2004) High Performance Work System (HPWS) is defined as a set of management practices used to create an atmosphere within an organization where the employee has more involvement and responsibility. More precisely, HPWS has been defined by Bohlander et al (2004) as “a specific combination of HR practices, work structures, and processes that maximizes employee knowledge, skill, commitment and flexibility” (Bohlander & Snell, 2004). An approach that Hershey’s could use to appeal to the diverse groups that it employs would be to utilize knowledge workers, such as indicated by Noe et al (2011) in the case study in the form of mentoring. Noe et al (2011) defined knowledge workers as employees whose key contribution to the organization is specialized knowledge, such as knowledge of customers, a process, or a profession. Hershey has baby boomers that specialize in the knowledge of the customers and the process, and who are also enthusiastic about sharing what they know to the younger generation of workers, and subsequently fascinated by leaving a legacy. In order to address the younger generation’s eagerness for challenges, employee empowerment is also...

...Nurse strategies that enhance students’ criticaltothinking, educators are continually challenged develop teaching problem-solving, and decision-making skills. Medicalsurgical nursing courses often require students to learn a large amount of material in a short time. Students frequently are overwhelmed with the amount and complexity of the material that is covered during each class meeting. Consequently, they may resort to memorizing facts instead of comprehending, applying, and transferring knowledge to practice. In addition, students rely on teachers to provide lecture notes and may not be adequately prepared to participate in class discussions. Case studies, which are an effective way of connecting critical thinking, problem solving, and decision-making to practice (Baumberger-Henry, 2003; Campbell, 2004), enhance students’ participation in class discussions. Conceptual models of nursing provide a unique body of knowledge that can be used to guide construction of case studies and enhance application of didactic course content to nursing practice. Students tend to undervalue the contributions of a nursing conceptual model to guide practice. By integrating a nursing conceptual model into the organization of course content and construction of case studies, students are exposed to how conceptual models can guide nursing practice. The purpose of this column is to explore the use of case studies for a senior level medical-surgical nursing course constructed within the context of...
