As Settles (2015) concluded that both of The Shakers and Mormons communities were utopian religious community. Secondly, gender inequality existed in both groups. After that, they were started roughly at the same time in the United States. Even though they shared some commonalities, there were some differences between the two groups as well. Settles (2015) also mentioned Mormons is an energetic community with a rapid growing speed in today, while The Shakers was terminated in the 20th century. In addition, Mormons had the tradition of polygamy, whereas The Shakers did not have that tradition, since they were influenced by Quaker faith. Moreover, Mormons were not only growing in the United States, they also have branches in Canada and Mexico.

"Transcendentalism and utopian communities each had a sense of feminism within them. John Humphrey's image of a perfect community, Oneida Community, rejected the "traditional" ideas of family and marriage. Instead of just the mother taking care of a child, the whole community helps out. In Ann Lee's Shaker Society, the residents committed to celibacy. Men and women were equal in all aspects and god was neither male nor female. Utopian societies were "perfect" worlds that many people in this time period created. So women being viewed as equals in almost all of them was a big step in the women's rights...

Noyes community was known for complex marriage’s which means any man could suggest sexual relations with any woman, who could either accept or decline the proposal.

...The unique pattern in the human iris is formed by ten months of age, and remains unchanged throughout one's lifetime. The probability of two persons having the same iris pattern is nearly impossible. In The Rayid Model of Iris Interpretation, there are four constitutional iris patterns: Two primary and two secondary. The two primary structures are \Jewel" and \Flower". Everyone has one of these two patterns as their dominant iris structure. The primary iris pattern is modi ed by the secondary pattern: either \Stream" or \Shaker". Personality traits and characteristics are di erent for each of these structures. In addition to the in uence of Stream or Shaker, personality is modi ed by birth order position and other factors. The presence of brown or dark-colored freckle-like dots or ecks in the iris indicates a thinking-oriented, analytical person. These color spots, which can range from yellow to gold to brown, are referred to as jewels, and this mentally-oriented personality is referred to as a Jewel. Distinctly curved or rounded openings in the bers of the iris (like petals of a ower), indicate a feeling-oriented personality. These openings, which look as if the light colored iris bers have round holes within them, are called owers, and we refer to the feeling-type of personality as a \Flower". The \Stream" type in the Rayid Model is called the kinesthetic type. Metaphorically, it is referred to as a stream. The iris of a person with a stream...

...Movers and Shakers in Education Lee R. Whittlesey Grand Canyon University Movers and Shakers in Education Educating our children has been around for many years. In the middle of the seventeenth century, after the pilgrims arrived in the New Country, the first school where established. Since that time there have been many people and movements that have helped improve or made great contributions to the way education is today. Some of the great leaders and movements that have given growth in education have been Horace Mann, John Dewey, Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), and the Nation at Risk Report. Horace Mann Often called the “Father of the Common School”, Horace Mann (1796-1859) began as a lawyer and legislator. In 1837 Mann was elected as the Secretary to the newly-created Massachusetts Board of Education. While in the position “He spearheaded the Common School Movement, ensuring that every child could receive a basic education funded by local taxes” (Horace Mann, n.d.). He insured that schools could provide all white children, no matter their social class, a free education. With his reform, each school would be systematized by grade levels and have standardized curriculum (Horace Mann Biography, n.d.). Within the next few years’ other states took his lead and implemented universal schooling.

...are many factors that lead to the Second Great Awakening, such as, Market Revolution and Preachers trying to convert people. In addition, there are also consequences of the Second Great Awakening, such as, religious experimentation and Reform movements. One of the causes that lead to the Second Great Awakening was that preachers “circuit riders” would create camp meetings in the frontiers and they would gather thousands of people to listen to them preach. These preachers would attempt to convert the audiences to a more active and particularly evangelical form of Christianity. Two of the famous preachers were Lyman Beecher and Charles Grandison Finney and they both didn’t get along with each other because Finney approved of women preaching in public which was forbidden...

...tasks that were accomplished. The first movement, the Great Awakening, was focused on people. In the past preachers would read a sermon to the crowd of believers which often took hours. In the Great Awakening a preacher named George Whitefield got down from his pulpit and into the crowd. He preached from court steps, street corners and tree stumps. He brought the message down to the people. It was often said that he could be heard from a great distance due to his incredible blast of a voice. Benjamin Franklin even tested this. (Franklin) He talked to the people rather than at the people, an act unheard of and not always well accepted. George was determined to help bring God down out of the rafters and into the hands of the believers. Another change in the way we worship came about with Jonathan Edwards. He changed the way the Lord’s Supper was taken. Rather than waiting an entire year to partake of the Lord’s blood and body, he offered it on a regulatory basis. He also offered it to non church members. This was a great coop in a time when religion and regimen were synonymous. The Second Awakening was most responsible for the idea of personal salvation rather than public proclamation. The Second Awakening was most concerned about revival for America and the world. The movement encouraged individuals to learn from each other and share their triumphs and sorrows. The second movement was also more organized. Most likely this was because...

Though the four people discussed in this paper are certainly not the only ones who left a permanent mark upon the history of our American educational system we have today, their efforts and philosophies laid the foundation upon which our educational system today was built. Horace Mann Horace Mann is credited with creating the first state board of education in 1837, whereby schools were managed by a state system. He was a leader in the Common School Movement and believed that teaching standards were in great need of improvement and that teachers should be paid better. He brought a great deal of focus onto current school conditions and prompted discussions on ways to improve them. Because of him, school conditions were improved and better equipped. Mr. Mann was fundamental in helping to instigate teacher training institutions (known as normal schools) and considerably successful in raising the standards of not just schools, but colleges as well. He has been referred to as “The Father of American Education”, (gcumedia.com, 2012). His philosophy was that...
