Digital Fortress Chapter 29

Still terrified from her experience with Hale, Susan looked out through the single direction glass of Node 3. The Crypto floor was unfilled. Sound was quiet once more, charmed. She wished he would leave. She thought about whether she should call Strathmore; the administrator could basically show Hale out-all things considered, it was Saturday. Susan knew, in any case, that if Hale got kicked out, he would quickly get dubious. When excused, he likely would begin calling different cryptographers asking what they thought was going on. Susan concluded it was better just to leave Hale alone. He would leave on his own soon enough. An unbreakable calculation. She murmured, her considerations coming back to Digital Fortress. It astonished her that a calculation like that could truly be made on the other hand, the verification was in that spot before her; TRANSLTR seemed pointless against it. Susan thought of Strathmore, respectably bearing the heaviness of this experience on his shoulders, doing what was essential, remaining cool notwithstanding fiasco. Susan now and again observed David in Strathmore. They had huge numbers of similar characteristics steadiness, devotion, knowledge. Here and there Susan thought Strathmore would be lost without her; the immaculateness of her affection for cryptography appeared to be an enthusiastic help to Strathmore, lifting him from the ocean of stirring legislative issues and helping him to remember his initial days as a code-breaker. Susan depended on Strathmore as well; he was her safe house in a universe of intensity hungry men, sustaining her vocation, securing her, and, as he frequently kidded, making everything she could ever want work out as expected. There was some fact to that, she thought. As inadvertent as it might have been, the authority was the one who'd decided that brought David Becker to the NSA that pivotal evening. Her psyche reeled back to him, and her eyes fell naturally to the draw slide close to her console. There was a little fax taped there. The fax had been there for seven months. It was the main code Susan Fletcher still couldn't seem to break. It was from David. She read it for the five-hundredth time. It would be ideal if you ACCEPT THIS HUMBLE FAX MY LOVE FOR YOU IS WITHOUT WAX. He'd sent it to her after a minor spat. She'd implored him for quite a long time to mention to her what it implied, however he had can't. Without wax. It was David's vengeance. Susan had shown David a great deal about code-breaking, and to cause him to remain alert, she had taken to encoding every last bit of her messages to him with some basic encryption plot. Shopping records, love notes-they were completely scrambled. It was a game, and David had become a significant decent cryptographer. At that point he'd chose to give back in kind. He'd began marking every one of his letters â€Å"Without wax, David.† Susan had more than two dozen notes from David. They were completely marked a similar way. Without wax. Susan asked to know the concealed significance, yet David wasn't talking. At whatever point she asked, he essentially grinned and stated, â€Å"You're the code-breaker.† The NSA's head cryptographer had a go at everything-replacements, figure boxes, even re-arranged words. She'd run the letters â€Å"without wax† through her PC and requested modifications of the letters into new expressions. All she'd gotten back was: taxi hovel goodness. It showed up Ensei Tankado was not by any means the only one who could compose unbreakable codes. Her contemplations were hindered by the sound of the pneumatic entryways murmuring open. Strathmore walked in. â€Å"Susan, any word yet?† Strathmore saw Greg Hale and held back. â€Å"Well, great night, Mr. Hale.† He glared, his eyes narrowing. â€Å"On a Saturday, no less. What exactly do we owe the honor?† Solidness grinned guiltlessly. â€Å"Just ensuring I pull my weight.† â€Å"I see.† Strathmore snorted, obviously gauging his alternatives. After a second, it appeared he too chose not to shake Hale's pontoon. He went coolly to Susan. â€Å"Ms. Fletcher, might I be able to address you for a second? Outside?† Susan delayed. â€Å"Ah†¦ truly, sir.† She shot an uncomfortable look at her screen and afterward over the room at Greg Hale. â€Å"Just a minute.† With a couple of snappy keystrokes, she pulled up a program called ScreenLock. It was a protection utility. Each terminal in Node 3 was furnished with it. Since the terminals remained on nonstop, ScreenLock empowered cryptographers to leave their stations and realize that no one would mess with their documents. Susan entered her five-character security code, and her screen went dark. It would remain that route until she returned and composed the best possible grouping. At that point she slipped on her shoes and followed the authority out. â€Å"What the hellfire is he doing here?† Strathmore requested when he and Susan were outside Node 3. â€Å"His usual,† Susan answered. â€Å"Nothing.† Strathmore looked concerned. â€Å"Has he said anything regarding TRANSLTR?† â€Å"No. Yet, on the off chance that he gets to the Run-Monitor and sees it enlisting seventeen hours, he'll have a comment all right.† Strathmore thought about it. â€Å"There's no explanation he'd get to it.† Susan peered toward the authority. â€Å"You need to send him home?† â€Å"No. We'll let him be.† Strathmore looked over at the Sys-Sec office. â€Å"Has Chartrukian left yet?† â€Å"I don't have the foggiest idea. I haven't seen him.† â€Å"Jesus.† Strathmore moaned. â€Å"This is a circus.† He ran a hand over the facial hair stubble that had obscured his face in the course of the last thirty-six hours. â€Å"Any word yet on the tracer? I have a feeling that I'm perched on my hands up there.† â€Å"Not yet. Any word from David?† Strathmore shook his head. â€Å"I asked him not to call me until he has the ring.† Susan looked astonished. â€Å"Why not? Consider the possibility that he needs help?†. Strathmore shrugged. â€Å"I can't help him from here-he's all alone. In addition, I'd preferably not chat on unbound lines just in the event that somebody's listening.† Susan's eyes extended in concern. â€Å"What's that expected to mean?† Strathmore promptly looked sorry. He gave her a consoling grin. â€Å"David's fine. I'm simply being careful.† Thirty feet from their discussion, taken cover behind the single direction glass of Node 3, Greg Hale remained at Susan's terminal. Her screen was dark. Robust looked out at the officer and Susan. At that point he went after his wallet. He separated a little file card and read it. Twofold watching that Strathmore and Susan were all the while talking, Hale painstakingly composed five keystrokes on Susan's console. After a second her screen sprang to life. â€Å"Bingo.† He laughed. Taking the Node 3 security codes had been basic. In Node 3, each terminal had an indistinguishable separable console. Solidness had just taken his console home one night and introduced a chip that tracked each keystroke made on it. At that point he had come in right on time, traded his altered console for somebody else's, and paused. Toward the day's end, he exchanged back and saw the information recorded by the chip. Despite the fact that there were a huge number of keystrokes to figure out, finding the entrance code was straightforward; the main thing a cryptographer did each morning was type the protection code that opened his terminal. This, obviously, made Hale's occupation easy the security code consistently showed up as the initial five characters on the rundown. It was unexpected, Hale idea as he looked at Susan's screen. He'd taken the security codes only for kicks. He was cheerful presently he'd done it; the program on Susan's screen looked huge. Robust thought about it for a second. It was written in LIMBO-not one of his claims to fame. Just by taking a gander at it, however, Hale could reveal to one thing for certain-this was not an analytic. He could understand just two words. Be that as it may, they were sufficient. TRACER SEARCHING†¦ â€Å"Tracer?† he said so anyone might hear. â€Å"Searching for what?† Hale felt out of nowhere uncomfortable. He sat a second examining Susan's screen. At that point he settled on his choice. Robust saw enough about the LIMBO programming language to realize that it obtained vigorously from two different dialects C and Pascal-the two of which he knew cold. Looking up to watch that Strathmore and Susan were all the while talking outside, Hale ad libbed. He entered a couple of adjusted Pascal orders and hit return. The tracer's status window reacted precisely as he had trusted. TRACER ABORT? He immediately composed: YES It is safe to say that you are SURE? Again he composed: YES After a second the PC blared. TRACER ABORTED Sound grinned. The terminal had quite recently communicated something specific disclosing to Susan's tracer to fall to pieces rashly. Whatever she was searching for would need to pause. Careful to depart no proof, Hale expertly explored his way into her framework action log and erased all the orders he'd recently composed. At that point he returned Susan's protection code. The screen went dark. When Susan Fletcher came back to Node 3, Greg Hale was situated discreetly at his terminal.

Compare & Contrast: Homelessness is More Appealing

A large number of us will never be destitute, and not every person comprehends the advantage of having a spouse, yet in the wake of perusing the essays’, Homeless (Quindlen, A. n. d. ) and I Want a Wife (Brady, J. 1971), one can increase a superior comprehension of both. I am a spouse. In this way, I can absolutely associate with the narrator’s story of I Want a Wife. This is a story exposition, wherein the storyteller considers why she also might want to have a spouse after an encounter with an as of late separated from male companion, who is searching for another wife.The storyteller gives a rundown of obligations and exercises she will and won't do on the off chance that she had a wife, and she can imagine the advantages a wife could manage the cost of her with not so much duties but rather more time for school or companions. My other article of decision is very unique in topic, yet it is as yet relatable. Anne Quindlen’s paper, Homeless (n. d. ) is a short en lightening article with the storyteller retelling of a record when she met a lady, who she accepts is destitute, at the transport terminal. It is during the experience that the storyteller ponders vagrants as a rule, the destitute individual and about herself.Both of these essays’ are elegantly composed, in any case, I feel that Homeless (Quindlen, A. n. d. ), is a more engaging paper than I Want a Wife (Brady, J. 1971), as it permits the peruser to turn out to be progressively occupied with the depictions and think about the subtleties of the story. At whatever point I first beginning perusing any kind of writing, the main thing I notice is the composing style of the writer and the perspective (POV) of the storyteller. Key components of the composing style for me are POV, tone, pace, and brevity whenever the situation allows. The perspective is critical to the peruser as it may not be theirs.This should make the peruser give nearer consideration to subtleties. How much belie vability does the storyteller offer. The tone of a story is set at the earliest reference point. The tone alongside a decent snare should catch the reader’s eye so they need to keep perusing. For me, the two articles Homeless and I Want a Wife caught my enthusiasm with the absolute first sentence. At the point when the initial sentence of an exposition begins with â€Å"I have a place with that grouping of individuals known as wives,† (I Want a Wife) that positively can grab the eye of another spouse. This initial attracted me since I needed to comprehend what she implied by this statement.The tone is set; spouses are in their very own class, and the storyteller has my consideration. Presently, she will let us know from her perspective why she needs a spouse, as well. Destitute, is comparable in that it additionally gets the peruser just by presenting a character, area, and season in its concise opening sentence. Be that as it may, I do believe that this opening is mor e engaging than I Want a Wife. The subtleties the storyteller gives the peruser make an away from picture of the scene. Moreover, the subsequent sentence uncovers sufficiently only to keep the peruser intrigued by what the storyteller needs to state, â€Å"I was doing a story on destitute people,† (Homeless, para 1).Again, the tone is set; it is January at the transport terminal where the storyteller, who is doing research on vagrants, meets such an individual, Ann. It is additionally in the primary sentence we realize it is the narrator’s story as she portrays her experience and discussion with Ann. With the storyteller imparting her experience and discussion to the peruser, she has welcomed them into her story making it progressively close to home. Another similitude between these two expositions is the author’s utilization of proper language for the material, the crowd, and the time of publication.I Want a Wife, written in 1971, was a period when the women's activist development was dynamic. Ladies were searching for correspondence in the work place yet additionally at home. The article, distributed in the magazine Ms. , causes me to accept the writer’s unique objective crowd is that of different spouses, future wives, and any other person who understands Ms. Magazine. Her straightforward articulations, or as I like to call it, her clothing list regarding why she should had a spouse, are anything but difficult to identify with the same number of us play out these obligations every day. In Homeless, the setting of the story, January at the transport terminal, leaves it to the reader’s creative mind of the year.The subject of the exposition, vagrants, is ageless as it is has been a progressing issue for a considerable length of time. The language the storyteller utilizes is oversimplified at this point expressively succinct. It despite everything gives enough detail to assist you with feeling associated with what the storyte ller is stating. You can feel her feelings through her words. I trust her intended interest group is everybody. As the storyteller states, â€Å"[We] stroll around it when it is lying on the walkway or sitting in the transport terminalâ€the issue, that is. † She is playing upon the reader’s feelings by bringing up what number of individuals disregard the issue in any event, when we encounter it at times.I feel this paper can rise above time as a result of the particular unmistakable words the writer uses to connect with the peruser. What's more, until vagrancy gets out of date, this will be an issue society will keep on examining. I don't accept the equivalent can be said about I Want a Wife. Perusing this paper currently appears to be insignificant in 2013, while in 1971, this was a reality for certain spouses. While I discovered the two expositions elegantly composed and share comparative key components recorded as a hard copy style and fitting language, I discove red Homeless, to be an additionally engaging read.The subject of the article, vagrants, is a present issue we keep on looking in the public eye today, which makes it progressively relatable to the peruser. It makes the peruser utilize their creative mind, basic reasoning abilities, and ponder a to some degree delicate subject. I think the subject of I need a Wife, is proper for the period it was composed, yet it doesn't generally apply to today’s families. The structure of the family has changed significantly over the most recent forty years. Never again is it the standard for the spouse to be the one to bear the entirety of the family responsibility.In a larger number of families than not, it is currently a common obligation. Despite the fact that Judy Brady’s article can make the peruser think about how life was for spouses during that period, it doesn't generally accommodate our general public today. Perusing the exposition now, it appears to be to a greater degree a joke than the women's activist articulation it was of 1971. Another engaging part of Homeless is the portrayal and detail the storyteller employments. She makes visual pictures with her words that catch and draw in the peruser. A portion of the visual pictures that were critical to me are the portrayal of Ann, her photograph, and the narrator’s own fierceness for the love of her own home.The narrator’s depiction of the grime that wrinkles Ann’s packs and waterproof shell give you an away from of her appearance. The portrayal of the yellow house in the photograph, â€Å"with the aluminum siding and a steel fence, a restricted carport approaching a one-vehicle carport, and a fix of backyard,† (Homeless para 2) gives the peruser a particular picture of the house. It is through these portrayals that I have a superior comprehension of both the characters and their point of view of homeless.I Want a Wife, while elegantly composed and engaging, it didn't inter est my passionate side like Homeless. I felt just as the storyteller was giving us her clothing list and doing as such with no feeling. She doesn't welcome the peruser into the story, as the structure is disorganized and chaotic. Also, she regularly rehashes herself all through the paper, which makes it hard to get an away from of any one idea as she moves rapidly starting with one thought then onto the next. Each exposition has comparable key components of composing style and suitable language.They both catch their focused on crowd with imaginative presentations that maneuver the peruser into the story. The authors’ utilization of straightforward proclamations and depictions take into account simple perusing and comprehension of the theme, anyway I accept that Homeless was increasingly fruitful in drawing in the reader’s faculties. Anna Quindlen utilized explicit portrayals and subtleties to bring the peruser into her story. Her theme is one that everybody comprehends ; for what it's worth, still an issue society faces today. She requests to our feelings and makes the peruser think about their own life and those influenced by it.

The Analysis Of Savings Attitude Will Be Discussed From...

This section discusses some theories and models that highlights on savings. The analysis of savings attitude will be discussed from two approaches: macroeconomic and microeconomic (household) perspectives. The macroeconomic methodology concerns itself with the influence of economic indicators such as GDP growth rate, rate of inflation, money supply, interest rate, etc., on the saving rate in an economy. At the micro level, individual saving and consumption attitudes, particularly households, have a particular relevance for financial stability of the economy. Poor savings attitudes induce financial disequilibrium as financial intermediation functions becomes difficult to realise (Modigliani Brumberg, 1954; Nwachukwu Odigie, 2011). Thus, at macroeconomic level, population savings are an important source for financing company investments as well as budget deficit. At microeconomic level, the savings contraction decreases the populations’ standard of living, especially the retired, with all the negative implications that may follow. Todaro (2010) defines development in economics as achieving sustained growth rates of per capita income (economic growth) so as to enable an economy expands its output at a rate higher that of its population growth rate. Review of some relevant literature found some models and theories regarding economic growth and savings are as follows.

ogrmI am someone who doesn’t watch TV at all. But there is one show that I just can’t afford to miss ‘the fresh prince of bel air’.

I really think the 90s show were more entertaining than the shows we have today. I don’t like reality shows because I think they are not real at all and its all scripted. I like comedy and so I like this show and the only thing I watch on TV at the moment. The best thing I like about this show is that its very well written. It sends a good message by the use of comedy. The show makes you think, makes you cry and makes you laugh a lot. what makes it even better is the acting by all the actors especially will smith and Alfonso Ribeiro. All characters are very likeable and well developed. My dilemma is I can’t choose between will and Carlton, (Alfonso Ribeiro) both are equally as good. So I would say they are both my favourite characters as their humour and sarcasm is awesome. The chemistry between the two is amazing. I like how will is always cracking jokes about Carlton’s height and Carlton makes fun of will’s low intellect. The best thing about Carlton is the funny dance he does, nobody can do it better, it really makes me laugh a lot. Another character that I really like is Hillary ( Karyn parsons). She is as dumb as a donkey, which is what makes her really funny. She has a very bubbly personality, and is shown to be very shallow all she cares about is her appearance. Uncle Phill, aunty Vivian and Ashley are the least humorous out of them all but still are really good at their character. This is the only show that I love watching and know that I will not get tired of watching it. This is the best show ever according to me great fun and laughs for the whole family.

Thematic Essay Question Revolutions Essays

Thematic Essay Question Revolutions Essays Thematic Essay Question Revolutions Essay Thematic Essay Question Revolutions Essay Danjai Jones 11/21/11 Social StudiesThematic essay question It as once said that â€Å"Political, economic and social conditions have often led to turning points that have changed the course of history for nations and peoples. † In other words at times of discomfort within a region or country they tend to lead to a revolution to meet the most publics wants and needs. One example of a turning point in our history is â€Å"The French Revolution†. The reason being for its importance is The French Revolution marked the beginning of prodigious changes that would affect world history. Despite the revolution occurring internally in France and only lasting twelve years (1787-1799), the lasting effects would be felt internationally, with direct repercussions reaching from areas as far as North America to the Dutch East Indies. Despite some of the Revolutions consequences being short-lived, it is obvious that after viewing the cultural, social, and political effects of the French Revolution it should be regarded as successful. Effects of the Revolution range from as petit as the spread of the metric system to as grand as the shift from absolutism to republicanism. In addition There is universal agreement that the political and administrative face of France was wholly altered: a republic based around elected – mainly bourgeois deputies replaced a monarchy supported by nobles while the many and varied feudal systems were replaced by new, usually elected institutions which were applied universally across France. Culture was also affected, at least in the short term, with the revolution permeating every creative endeavour. However, there is still debate over whether the revolution permanently changed the social structures of France or whether they were only altered in the short term. Another example is â€Å"The Enlightenment Age†. The Age Of Reason, as it was called, was vastly spreading very quickly across the European continent. In the late 17th century, scientists like Isaac Newton and writers like John Locke were opposing the original unethical order. Newtons laws of gravity and motion described the world in ways of natural laws beyond any spiritual force. In the wake of political turmoil in England, Locke made people reconsider the right of people to change a governmental system that did not appropriately protect or protect natural rights of life, liberty and property at all. People were beginning to doubt the continued survival of a God who could determine the life of human beings in advance to heaven or hell indefinitely and empower a tyrant for a king. Europe would be forever changed by these ideas. The Enlightenment Age is an important factor history turning point because the old way of life was represented by a common held but unjustified belief beyond scientific explanation, also a causation leading to certain consequences of an action or event of an angry God, and absolute submission to authority. The thinkers of the Age of Reason created something new` in a new way of thinking. This new way supported the cause of the accomplishments of humankind. Individuals did not have to accept the complete loss or absence of hope. Science and reason could bring happiness and progress. Kings did not rule by divine right. They had a responsibility to their subjects. Europeans thought about the concluded statement for nearly a century. In conclusion both implemented issues in this essay are both very strong and are connected turning points in our history. They both changed the way of life indefinitely to revolutionize the lives of many.

The integration of Drama Research Paper Example | Topics and Well Written Essays - 1750 words

The integration of Drama - Research Paper Example A separate stream of education called Theatre in Education (TIE) came up after the Second World War (Farrell, 2002). Drama has been established as successful as a correction tool (Okhakhu, & Usrwoma, 2006)   and as an educational tool(James, 2009).The basic philosophy behind using drama as a process based tool in education is that children tend to use experiences and experiments to learn than reading and listening (Booth, 1994). This basic understanding has been further researched and developed into pedagogies catering specifically to the various learning outcomes. The specific learning requirements of behaviourally and emotionally disturbed children also demand a free platform to do and experience. Research on curriculum catering for the special needs of children with emotional and behavioural disabilities have suggested that such programmes must mandatorily include â€Å"provision of coursework and educational activities relevant to students’ real-world experiences and go als that include a variety of non traditional curriculum,† and, â€Å"provision of effective programming that facilitates students’ social, emotional, and behavioural growth† (Hughes & Adera, 2006).Drama can ideally include these two criteria. Drama has been found by the educational and physiological as an ideal platform for children to have a free environment to enhance learning. The basic strategy in using drama in the curriculum of behaviourally and emotionally disturbed children.... gested that such programmes must mandatorily include â€Å"provision of coursework and educational activities relevant to students’ real-world experiences and goals that include a variety of non traditional curriculum,† and, â€Å"provision of effective programming that facilitates students’ social, emotional, and behavioural growth† (Hughes & Adera, 2006).Drama can ideally include these two criteria. Drama has been found by the educational and physiological as an ideal platform for children to have a free environment to enhance learning. The basic strategy in using drama in the curriculum of behaviourally and emotionally disturbed children is to make learners engage in the learning process. The objective of this essay is to analyse the scope of drama as an effective learning tool to be incorporated in the curriculum of behaviourally and emotionally disturbed children. Drama as cooperative activity Children with behavioural and emotional disabilities or is sues find it difficult to cope with their peers. They also find it very difficult to place themselves in a classroom environment. Thus the basic problem that behaviourally and emotionally disturbed children face in a classroom is that they encounter with a learning environment which they find difficult to cope up with. In the case of behaviourally and emotionally disturbed children, it is a general observation that apart from class room settings, they find it difficult to social gatherings and avenues of cooperative activities. Researches in Psychotherapy have suggested engaging these students in positive environments involving cooperative activities as one of the remedial measures in tacking behavioural issues. Drama serves as an ideal platform for this. It involves wide varieties of cooperative activities

Improving sustainable development of oil and gas in the Niger Delta in Essay

Improving sustainable development of oil and gas in the Niger Delta in Nigeria - Essay Example On the same note, the ability of the future generation is said to be determined today, when the magnitude of that generation in the future is unknown. Niger Delta is rich in oil and gas deposits among other valuable minerals. Sustainable development in the context of oil and gas in the Niger Delta is more tailored towards environmental management. The environment needs to be monitored and influenced in certain way in a bid to enhance human and business habitation in the region. In other words, sustainable development of oil and gas in the Niger Delta encompasses a sustainable management of human interaction and environmental resources to benefit both the society and the business undertakings in this region in present and future times (World Bank, 2002; Amnesty International, 2009). Environmental aspect of the oil and gas in the Niger Delta Oil and gas activities in the Niger Delta are significant drivers of the economy in the region and in Nigeria at large. A good proportion of oil a nd gas deposits are found in this region. Although most people’s livelihoods are based in the oil and gas industry, environmental management is quite a concern. ... As the situation stands in Niger Delta, there are a number of environmental problems that have resulted from the oil and gas industry in this region. They include: seismic activity, drilling operation, transportation, exploitation and exploration and refining of crude oil (Nwilo, 2003, p.76). To benefit from oil and gas earnings, it is undisputable that the above activities have to be undertaken. However, the resulting environmental degradation cannot be ignored especially in the light of sustainable development. It is important to note that oil and gas activities are not the sole cause of environmental degradation in the Niger Delta. Other contributing factors include: human livelihood activities, bunkering and militia activities, construction activities and industrial pollution (Oyibo Online, 2011). Sustainable development is highly dependent on environmental sustainability in current and future times. This is because it directly influences cultural, social, economic and political aspects of a nation indiscriminately. Therefore, in order to improve sustainable development of oil and gas in the Niger Delta, environmental degradation that results from it is crucial to address. The needs of a society cut across social, economic and political factors. Aspects of Sustainable Development in the Niger Delta The improvement of sustainable development of oil and gas in the Niger Delta should encompass social, economic and political interests. A sustainable environmental integrates human habitation and business aspects to environmental welfare. This means that a sustainable relationship among the three variables improves sustainable development, impacting positively to the social, economic and political needs of current and future

Overview Of Science Teaching Yesterday Today And Tomorrow Education Essay

Overview Of Science Teaching Yesterday Today And Tomorrow Education Essay The development of science education in the United States is said to have been pushed by a perceived lack and deficiency with laggard innovations in science and the declining quality of students the science curriculum has produced. Reforms in the science curriculum in the past were triggered by Soviet Unions Sputnik launch and how the event placed the US behind their Russian counterparts (Matthews, 1994). Today, in the era of globalization, a growing concern is the declining standards and performance of American students in mathematics and science. The challenge falls upon the entire American education system to ensure scientific literacy among its citizens and equip them with the scientific competency to become productive members of a democratic society. This paper discusses the evolution of science education in the United States in order to evaluate how the science teacher or educator could initiate reforms in the classroom or the systemic setting. Science Education: The Past It is a common perception among students that science is a difficult and deplorable subject in school (Krehbiel, 1999). Responsibility has fallen upon policy-makers and science teachers to make the sciences more appealing to students. As Stephen Jay Gould said, We think that science is intrinsically hard, scary, or arcane, and that teachers can only beat the necessary knowledge, by threat and exhortation, into a small minority born with inborn propensity (as cited in Osborne, 2007, p. 117). Why has science education acquired this brand or label as a seemingly impossible subject which only a handpicked few could appreciate and comprehend? The history of science education suggests that the rigidity, prescriptive curriculum, and standardized form of science teaching as a subject based on memorization of facts on a very wide range of science content might have contributed to this perception (Matthews, 1994). The standardization of science teaching in the late 1800s was undertaken in order to address the problem of the lack of qualified science teachers. The school curriculum concept grew out of the London School Board in the United Kingdom in 1870, prompting the training of science teachers who can ably teach science courses to the general public. In the United States, the standardization of science education came in the 1890s and there was a great debate on what ideology should guide the school science curriculum: citizen science or professional training. In 1892, a group called the Committee of Ten was tasked by the National Education Association (NEA) to make recommendations for a school science curriculum. This commi ttee emphasized on science teaching as a citizen science that is important in grooming professional scientists in the future. As a result, the entire American education system applied the curriculum recommended by this Committee (Wallace and Loughran, 2003). The emphasis was theoretical and stressed on the teaching of facts and principles of the disciplines. The approach was foundationalist, where the curriculum attempts to make the future scientist learn all the basic concepts of every science discipline. Cohen opines that the tradition of attempting to make students memorize a series of dry facts was impractical because no practicing scientist readily memorizes such as the density of various substances, the atomic weight of different chemical elementsà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã‚ ¦ the distance in light years from the Earth to various stars (and so on) (as cited in Osborne, 2007, p. 173). This tradition still dominates science education today, but has also been challenged with the introduction of other ideologies to guide science teaching. One is the applied approach where science is taught in relation to how everyday things function and contribute to society, and the liberal or humanistic approach, where emphasis is given on the implications of science in a historical and cultural sense (Matthews, 1994). Science Education: The Present The same concerns still exist in science education today. Attitudes toward science and mathematics among students remain negative and parental support for a science-geared education has declined (Osborne, 2007). K-12 science educators in many states in the US still follow the rigid, theoretical tradition in science teaching and conform strictly to the curriculum and content prescribed among age groups. Policy makers and education lobbyists have expressed concern that emphasis on facts and theories have resulted to teachers who merely cover the material, without teaching the material. The process of science is overlooked and the student fails to develop critical thinking skills and appreciation for the scientific method. Osborne (2007) articulates the tension in science teaching today. She argues that the science curriculum is geared at developing future scientists, hence, the stress on factual and theoretical presentation on a wide range of content. This contributes to the perception that becoming competent in science is practical only to students who want to pursue a career in the sciences someday. The aim of scientific literacy for all citizens is missed if this kind of thinking is not corrected. According to Krehbiel (1999), science teachers have the responsibility of clarifying to students that science competency is not only suited for the future scientist, it is also beneficial to non-scientists. Scientific literacy contributes to the development of problem-solving skills that greatly benefit non-scientists and can be applied in everyday life. Science education development today wants to enhance the competency of teachers. Teachers are central to the development of scientific literacy which is the end goal of science education (Osborne, 2007). Their qualifications and their attitudes play a great role in accomplishing this mission. State Boards have specific requirements and credentials for science teachers. Studies have shown that teachers who possess subject-specific degrees are better qualified to influence positive science outcomes among students than those who do not (Cronginer et al., 2003). However, secondary characteristics such as teachers attitudes and belief systems play a major role in motivating students to learn. Wallace Loughran (2003) suggest that there are many factors that contribute to the belief systems of science teachers, such as social pressure (or the need to conform to prescribed methods of instruction) and the apprenticeship of observation (or the mirroring of style of teaching they experienced a s students in their science classes). Attitudes about practice reflect upon a science teachers teaching style, which in turn influence comprehension. Teachers who consider themselves as transmitters of knowledge apply a teacher-centered style of instruction where the main goal is the delivery of the content or subject matter (Wallace Loughran, 2003). A teacher who espouses this tradition adheres strictly to the organization of content while the needs of students are secondary considerations only. Lesson plans are designed to conform to prescribed content with no concern for student readiness or aptitude. Wallace and Loughran (2003) identify this method as the most dominant form in science teachers. An alternative style is the student-centered method which focuses primarily students comprehension. A teacher who practices this style first considers his or her students prior knowledge or aptitude before planning lessons and concentrates on forming social interactions or collaborative relationships with students (Wallace L oughran, 2003). Science Education: The Future If the international rankings of American students in science and mathematics are predictive of the quality of science education, then there are great challenges to be overcome in the near future. As American students lag behind their European and Asian counterparts in science competency, reforms in policy and corporate support are today heavily emphasized to produce more globally competitive students in the future. Microsoft founder Bill Gates has contributed billions to encourage students to take science course in college. Organizations such as Tapping Americas Potential provide scholarships for more students to graduate with degrees in science, mathematics, and engineering (Osborne, 2007). In the education system, policy reforms are also under way. In 1996, the National Committee on Science Education Standards and Assessment (NCSESA) came up recommendations on how to better produce more scientifically literate students for the future. Standards related to science teaching were presented in the book National Science Education Standards, such as: The vision of science education described by the Standards requires changes throughout the entire system. What students learn is greatly influenced by how they are taught. The actions of teachers are deeply influenced by their perceptions of science as an enterprise and as a subject to be taught and learned. Student understanding is actively constructed through individual and social processes. Actions of teachers are deeply influenced by their understanding of and relationships with students. (p. 30) Among the reforms in elementary and secondary science education emphasize on the need for inquiry-based and hands-on curriculum used in schools. It has been a major thrust advocated in the National Science Education Standards and the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Conclusion The development of science education has been made possible by the careful study of its past, an assessment of the present, and a positive outlook on the future. Remnants of the heavily theoretical orientation of science teaching of the 19th century are still practiced today. At present, there has been a noticeable decline in the competency of students in science and mathematics, pushing the drive for more reforms in science education. The recommendations, while focusing on the systemic need for science education reform, also highlight the important role of the science teacher in achieving better science outcomes among students. Teachers competency, decisions about the content, peer interactions, behaviors, attitudes, and belief systems significantly influence students comprehension, appreciation, and attitudes toward science.

Psychology Process Essay

  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚   Although psychological pioneers such as Jung and Freud dominated much of the early dialogue regarding psychoanalytic theory in the early through mid twentieth century, the contribution of Erik Erikson to modern psychology has proven to be no less enduring than it was originally regarded as radical. Some evidence suggests that Erikson’s theories of the eight stages of personal development have enjoyed a more widespread acceptance among contemporary twenty-first century thinkers and scholars than many of his predecessors and colleagues. Erikson was a pioneer in adult psychoanalytic theory: â€Å"he stands alone as the one thinker who changed our minds about what it means to live as a person who has arrived at a chronologically mature position and yet continues to grow, to change, and to develop.† (Hoare 3); because Erikson’s theories went â€Å"beyond† those extended by Freud and others, his contributions to modern psychology are still regarded as important second-stage psychoanalytic theory.   Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚   Although for Freud â€Å"humans were psychosexual creatures† (Hoare 4). ,for Erikson the human psyche presented a much more complex and evolving entity, one which developed over a series of specifically defined stages, and the successful or unsuccessful navigation through these stages, which numbered eight, indicated whether or not an individual had successfully attained a working self-identity. Perhaps Erikson’s break-through inn psychoanalytic theory were at least partially based upon his personal life-experiences. Certainly within the context of Erikson’s theories of identity development, one’s personal experience played a crucial role in the development of identity. As his many biographers have noted, Erikson â€Å"lived in dramatic times† (Hoare 4). and in his life he experienced â€Å"two world wars[†¦] and, later, living in the United States, saw the origin and first use of nuclear weapons.† (Hoare 4).; whether or not these historical experienced shaped his intellectual vision is debatable. What is less ambiguous is whether or not Erikson’s personal life, outside of any historical context, influenced his theories and it certainly did.   Erikson’s early life: â€Å"born on June 15, 1902, in Frankfurt am Main, Germany† (Hoare 7). Erikson first lived alone with his mother and then later, â€Å"The two lived among his mother’s artist friends, who provided early identifications for him† (Hoare 7).   The fact that Erikson was essentially an artist rather than a pure scientist allowed him to bring a sensitivity to his psychological studies and theories which many scholars believe was previously lacking in psychology.   Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚   It is well known that Erikson in nineteen sixty-three â€Å"postulated eight stages that must be encountered successfully and lived through in the development of the self† (Hattie 118).; the navigation of these eight stages produced an enduring self-identity which continued to develop adn meet challenges right on through until personal death. (Hattie). The specific stages were looked at by Erikson as challenges and one either â€Å"won† or â€Å"lost† them. Such a vision was radical when Erikson proposed it and his ideas are still regarded, by some, as quite radical today.   Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚   For example, Christian educational theorists belive that not only Erikson, but many of the psychoanalytic theorists of the twentieth century have replaced the traditional role of ministers, and other mentors and societal influences over the upbringing of children in Western society. These people believe that â€Å"the vocabulary of the psychologist frames virtually all public discussion[†¦] Anthropologists and sociologists are likewise absent from the discussion.†Ã‚   (Hunter 5).a and this is viewed as being highly detrimental to educational strategies and programs. However, despite the criticism of groups like these, Erikson’s theories continue to be deeply referenced and relied upon by modern psychologists, and he is revered as the primary thinker in psychology who extended the recognition of the development of self-identity beyond the early stages of adolescence and envisioned a paradigm which covered the evolution of the self over the entire duration of an individual life.   Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚  Ã‚   Works Cited Hattie, John.

Differences Between Indian And American Culture Essay

Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni highlights the differences between Indian and American culture in her collection of short stories, Arranged Marriage. Each tale utilizes a different narrator, whether it is first or third person narration, to highlight the struggles women face in all arranged marriages. Many of these women live in America, yet India’s strict moral code still burdens them. In â€Å"Doors†, Preeti struggles to balance her American beliefs with the Indian beliefs of her husband, similarly to Anju, who wonders if her life and pregnancy would be different if she lived in India throughout â€Å"The Ultrasound†. In â€Å"The Word Love†, a woman must confront her situation and push her boundaries. Divakaruni shows the highs and lows of arranged marriages, proving that I would not thrive in a commitment made without my input. As an only child, I adore personal space. I grew up never sharing a bedroom or bathroom, never fought with anyone over the remote c ontrol nor shotgun in the car. When I received my roommate assignment, I will admit that I cringed.

How to Deal with Unprepared Students

One of the facts that every teacher faces is that each day there will be one or more students who come to class without the ​necessary books and tools. They might be missing their pencil, paper, textbook, or whatever other school  supply you asked them to bring with them that day. As the teacher, you need to decide how you will deal with this situation when it arises. There are basically two schools of thought about how to deal with a case of missing supplies: those who think that students should be held responsible for not bringing everything they need, and those who feel that a missing pencil or notebook should not be the cause of the student losing out on the days lesson.  Lets take a look at each of these arguments.   Students Should Be Held Responsible Part of succeeding not only in school but also in the real world is learning how to be responsible. Students must learn how to get to class on time, participate in a positive manner, manage their time so that they submit their homework assignments on time, and, of course, come to class prepared. Teachers who believe that one of their main tasks is to reinforce the need for the students to be responsible for their own actions will typically have strict rules about missing school supplies.   Some teachers will not allow the student to participate in the class at all unless they have found or borrowed the necessary items. Others might penalize assignments because of forgotten items. For example, a geography teacher who is having students color in a map of Europe  might reduce a students grade for not bringing in the required colored pencils.   Students Should Not Miss Out The other school of thought holds that even though a student needs to learn responsibility, forgotten supplies should not stop them from learning or participating in the days lesson. Typically, these teachers will have a system for students to borrow supplies from them. For example, they might have a student trade something valuable for a pencil that they then return at the end of the class when they get that pencil back. One excellent teacher at my school only lends pencils out if the student in question leaves one shoe in exchange. This is a foolproof way of ensuring that the borrowed supplies are returned before the student leaves the class.   Random Textbook Checks Textbooks can cause a lot of headaches for teachers as students are prone to leaving these at home. Most teachers do not have extras in their classroom for students to borrow. This means that forgotten textbooks typically result in students having to share. One way to provide incentives for students to bring their texts each day is to periodically hold random textbook/material checks. You can either include the check as part of each students participation grade or give them some other reward such as extra credit or even some candy. This depends on your students and the grade you are teaching.   Larger Problems What if you have a student who rarely if ever brings their materials to class. Before jumping to the conclusion that they are just lazy and writing them a referral, try to dig a little deeper. If there is a reason that they are not bringing their materials, work with them to come up with strategies to help. For example, if you think the issue at hand is simply one of organization issues,  you might provide them with a checklist for the week for what they need each day. On the other hand, if you feel that there are issues at home that are causing the problem, then you would do well to get the students guidance counselor involved.
