Problems of education connect to funding, teacher quality and the status of the teaching profession, student academic performance and standardized testing, racial imbalances, and equal educational opportunity. The lack of parental involvement seems to be a problem for education also. Parental involvement in their child's education makes them feel good about themselves. They usually have higher grades; higher test scores on standardized tests, classroom assessments and at arrive at school all the time. It is important to have quality teachers that care about the students and that encourage parents on how important it is to be involved with their child's education. The No Child Left Behind (NCLB) law took effect in 2002; it has had a broad ...show more content... Schools, districts, states, and the federal government should be financially accountable to the public, with policymakers accountable to provide the resources needed to produce positive results. Policies should assist and encourage parents, families, and communities to be actively involved and engaged in their public schools. These policies should require professional development programs for all educators to include the skills and knowledge needed for effective parental and community communication and engagement strategies. And finally they should provide incentives or require employers to grant a reasonable amount of leave for parents to participate in their children's school activities. A qualified, caring, diverse, and stable workforce in our schools requires a pool of well prepared, highly skilled candidates for all vacancies, quality induction for new teachers with mentoring services from trained veteran teachers, opportunities for continual improvement and growth for all employees, working conditions in which they can be successful, and professional compensation and benefits. School funding systems must provide adequate, equitable and sustainable funding. Making taxes fair and eliminating inefficient and ineffective business subsidies are essential prerequisites to achieving adequacy, equity, and stability in school funding.

Children 's Rights Problems And Solutions Essay Children's Rights Problems and Solutions Allison Stewart, Ellen Livingstone, Jahmoyia Smith, Ryan Luo and Tracy Sheffield Fanshawe College Introduction Studies show that what happens to children in their very first years physically, psychologically, emotionally shapes the overall outcome of their lives (Weshah, Al–Faori, and Sakal, 2012). The initial purpose of this case study was to spread the importance of the early years of a child's life by implementing a system known as the Child–Friendly School framework. The CFS has been evolving since the twentieth century and started originally in Thailand. There are five fundamental dimensions to this program these include; inclusion, the implementation of healthy and safe environments which safeguards children's emotional and psychological well being, gender sensitive classrooms and environments, community and parental involvement and child's rights. The research aimed at tackling three main issues. Firstly, the implementation of the Child–Friendly school initiative in Jordan . Secondly, the promotion and implementation of Child Rights Conviction in Jordan which were particularly focused on the right of education for all children. Finally, the development of child–rights approaches in early education and care. The researchers set out to achieve these goals by attempting to transform the conventional top–down approaches to teaching and learning while developing some proactive initiatives to Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

The Inner–City Problems and Solving Them There are many problems that can be clearly seen in the inner city. Problems such as crime, poor housing (perhaps slums), and unemployment are all apparent. However unemployment levels are gradually dropping. Lack of money gives rise to the problems so are often seen in the lower class areas of cities. On the whole the perception of the inner– city areas has the image of poverty and overcrowding which faces many cities across Britain today in whatever proportion. The first as such it the Economic which inner–city areas have long suffered due to lack of investment especially after the 1940's when a lot of money was put into New Towns. Many of ...show more content... Issues in British inner city estates There is increasing evidence that poverty, unemployment and social stress are all now seen in British Inner Cities. There are many problems which the areas face, both physically and even in some cases mentally: 1.the physical fabric of the buildings, many originally built using cheap materials and methods, is deteriorating rapidly. However the councils are trying to upgrade these poor housing conditions gradually. 2.Many inner city areas include high rise buildings which have created feelings or isolation and stress related illnesses. 3.The low level or car ownership and high bus fares have increased the feeling of isolation from jobs, shops and

entertainment. 4.Levels of unemployment often exceed 30%. There are also low income families; many elderly living on small pensions. 5.The environment quality of the areas are poor, often with the lack of open space. 6.The inner–city tend to have high levels of marital problems, drug–taking, petty crime and vandalism and low levels of academic attainment and aspiration. We can see quite clearly from above the poor conditions that face Britain's poorer people, these factors having to be dealt with.

Management-Challenges and Solutions MANAGEMENT CHALLENGES AND SOLUTIONS Managers spend their days juggling projects, people, and problems. Good managers have learned how to balance them. They complete projects successfully and on time, guide and support their employees, maintain good relationships with customers, and solve problems quickly and decisively. Less effective managers often get bogged down and sidetracked. A good manager recognizes challenges and finds ways to solve them. Less effective managers may not even recognize the real challenges they face. Challenge #1: Not Managing! Believe it or not, many managers fail simply because they do not manage! A manager must plan, organize, communicate, negotiate, and lead people toward a common goal. Too often, some ...show more content... Body language clearly communicates what you are thinking and feeling: when you roll your eyes or shrug your shoulders or frown, you are communicating negativity. If you say the right words but speak in a sarcastic tone of voice, you are sending a mixed message. And, if you are managing a staff and you dress in an inappropriate or unprofessional manner, your appearance will undermine your authority. You must understand that people "hear" body language and tone of voice much louder than actual words. So, if you say one thing but your body language or voice sends conflicting signals, people will usually believe the message sent by body language or tone of voice. For example, Jack rarely gives his employees feedback. He thinks they should know what to do in every situation. But, he gets angry when they make mistakes. Obviously, Jack is not communicating sometimes and communicating inappropriately other times. Managers must communicate early and often. Make it easy for employees to ask questions or obtain feedback. And most importantly, make sure your body language and tone of voice match your words. Challenge #3: Failing to Set Clear Goals and Expectations Most employees are not mind readers. They cannot be expected to meet goals if their manager does not create and communicate clear goals and expectations. Every employee should understand what is expected of them, what the company expects of their department, and why. This lack of clear Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Essay on Common Teenage Problems Teenage is a fundamental stage of life that each human being passes through. Some people face this period of their life strongly and positively, while others face many problems and difficulties. This depends on the environment these young adults live in, their parents, their friends, their living conditions, their education, and many other factors. Teenagers face many problems such as becoming addicted to drugs and alcohol, being influenced negatively by their peers, self–image and weight, or even arguments with their parents Drugs between teenagers is one of the most serious problems, because it causes a change in the behavior of any teenager and a physical change too. Most of the teenagers use alcoholic drinks as a way to escape ...show more content... Peer pressure has always been present and will also always be present. It is not a disease or a crime, it is an influence; either a negative or a positive one. Negative peer pressure is an influence put on a person to do something wrong, or something the person doesn't want to do. This may be stealing, taking drugs, or other dangerous actions. If someone influences you into doing something like this it is considered a negative peer pressure. This is a major problem in most schools all around the world. Teenagers usually feel peer pressure when they feel unpopular between their friends, or when they want to be accepted in a group of other teenagers. The group is a place where one feels accepted, where he can feel good about himself, where he feels secure. It increases his self esteem, and it also enhances his self–image. Unfortunately, teenagers who want to be part of these groups, need to follow certain unpleasant routines, such as stealing, smoking, taking drugs, or drinking alcohol. Many times they do things that they would never have imagined themselves doing before meeting a new group of people. Some teens try to make the "right" decision so others will admire them. Having parents or other responsible adults they can turn to for help or advice is crucial at this point in a teen's life. Teenagers might also face self–image or weight problems. One of the main illnesses that comes from these Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Management Problems and Solutions Essay ABSTRACT: Regularly management seeks to correct organizational deficiencies in order to align the organization to be more efficient, effective, and economical. They may opt to perform total quality management, lean six sigma, or simply downsize. Management may even identify symptoms without actually identifying the problem. Management may misdiagnose the problem by identifying a person or group of people as problems. While correctly recognizing problems, there are more on the verge and it is up to management to mitigate potential problems. Sometimes managers need to realize that the answers they seek are right before they eyes; they only simply need to look in a mirror.

WHO ARE THEY:QASAS, short for quality assurance specialist (ammunition surveillance) were originally established as ammo inspectors in 1920 and is the first civilian career program created within the Army (Oklahoma State University, 2011; Thompson, 2009). QASAS are responsible for all government owned munition stockpiles, to include the Navy, Air Force, Army, Marines, State Department, and several other activities (Oklahoma State University, 2011). QASAS are also required to travel the world in order to accommodate the Army's needs (Howlett, 2011; U.S. Army, 2010). With its inception, coupled with today's technology and government needs, management must possess a litany of skills in order to create and maintain a successful running company. Wage Grade inspectors are also ammunition inspectors. Unlike QASAS, they are not required to be managers, but if provided with the necessary training, can be just as fully qualified as a QASAS (U.S. Office of Personnel Management, 2011; Oklahoma State University, 2011). Another difference between Wage Grade inspectors and QASAS is QASAS are required to move every three to five years across the country or other countries such as Japan, Korea, and Germany, to Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

"The Net's beginnings went largely unnoticed by the public. For all its technological brilliance, the Internet of today is far removed from the concepts that propelled initial research. And the Internet's story– which has become the World Wide Web's story– has not been so much one of planned development as of individual genius, at least until recently." (Gilster. 1997). Indeed the Internet is one of the best phenomenons that happened in the 21st century, however many users think that the Internet means the World Wide Web , yet it is not as same as the web.

He also explains how hard it would be to learn a new kind of programming language, however beside all the difficulties they had also faced some major problems, after they almost finish with the World Wide Web. The first problem was with Graphical User Interface or 'GUI'; it is basically based on graphical a method that allows the user to cooperate by using the graphical icons such as images, menus or input devices such as mouse and keyboard instead of text that appears on the screen. The operating system of interface was difficult to use, therefore there were menus, which were complicated to understand, there were no icons on screen to click on to make it easy to use, and there were also no visual configurations, so the principle of web usability was that it needed more flexibility and perspicacity. The solution; a lot of research had been done to develop the graphical interface for the web wide world, the scientists have been using methods and tools for it, as they have now Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Violence is a very important issue that is coming to the front in today's school systems. School violence is a `complex social policy problem' and is considered very complicated and hard to define. My paper is on school violence and the methods in which the government and schools can provide support and/or programs to help stem the recent rash of incidents. These steps include: use of `less violent' materials, peer mediation interventions, police presence and action, individualizing of the troublemaker(s), safety measures [in schools, and at home], and raising deviancy awareness. Through using these methods, hopefully we can start to stem the amount of, and types of violence that has been ruling the schoolyards these days. It is important ...show more content... There has been a stunning trend in recent years that shows that teachers are less likely to punish a student for fear of retaliation, and likewise, students are becoming more apathetic about schoolwork and deviancy because they realize they will not be punished as severely. This problem also leads to less attentiveness amongst students, and less ability to teach a lesson for the professors. Simply put, the violence epidemic simply leads to more violence. There are several reactions that students exhibit to violence in the schools. While some seclude themselves, withdraw from school, the most serious reaction is of retaliation. Some students, when acted against, will begin carrying weapons to school, this act will only lead to further violence among students in the school setting. The use of violence and aggression in schools also can lead to serious psychological harm. Many times, not only victims, but witnesses to serious crimes in the school setting have reported some form of lasting mental damages. This mental trauma is often hard to treat, causing some students to permanently leave school. The most common cause of this mental trauma is the youth on youth violence that is spreading throughout the educational institutions. There are certain elements in schools and social environments that foster juvenile violence. These elements include attention from peers, teachers, and even the media.

Life's Problems Essay Life's Problems Life is full of problems, but how we approach those problems often determines whether we're happy or miserable. Bob Maynard says, "Problems are opportunities in disguise." If we approach problems with Maynard's attitude, we see that problems are really opportunities to learn about others and ourselves. They enable us to live happier and more fulfilling lives. Maynard's quote applies to all kinds of problems. I faced a problem just last week when our family's kitchen sink developed a serious leak. There was water all over our kitchen floor and piles of dishes to be washed. But our landlord was out of town for the week. I come from a big family–I have six brothers and sisters–so we couldn't afford to wait until ...show more content... Whatever kind of situation we face, problems give us the chance to learn and grow, both physically and mentally. For example, when I had a problem with my car and couldn't the repairs right away, my problem become an opportunity to get some exercise–something I'd been waiting to do anyway. I had to walk a mile each day to get to the bus stop and back. But in the meantime, I got the chance to start getting back in shape, and I saved a lot on gas. I've come to realize that problems are really part of what makes life worth living. Problems challenge us and give us the opportunity to do things we've never done before, to learn things we never knew before. They give us the chance to surprise ourselves. Just the word "problem" can send some of us into a panic. But problems can be good things, too. Problems are situations that make us think and force us to be creative and resourceful. They can also teach us things we didn't know before. For example, I had a problem in school a few years ago when I couldn't understand my math class. I started failing my quizzes and homework assignments. I wasn't sure what to so, so finally I went to the teacher and asked for help. She said she would arrange for me to be tutored by another student who was her best student. In return, though, I'd have to help that student around school. I wasn't sure what she Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

The Problems with Abortion and Solutions Essays The Problems with Abortion and Solutions Abortion is referred as the termination of a pregnancy or of a fetus that is incapable of survival (Dictionary.com). Abortion is morally wrong and illegal because the fetus is a person. It is the same thing as murder. The reasons people have abortions are they are not ready to handle the responsibility of another human being, the fetus may have a birth defect , mother's heath is an issue, rape, or simply because they don't want any more children (Abortioninfo). The majority of people that have abortions are teenagers. Abortion is flat out wrong and should be banned. Being that abortion is immoral no matter the circumstances, justifies the need for a law to make it illegal. Abortion has ...show more content... This usually occurs during the second or third trimester. The cervix is dilated for the entry of surgical forceps (AbortionTV). The fetus is partly pulled though the vagina in a breech style. The legs of the fetus are hanging out of the womb. The doctor forces the scissors into the back of the head and spreads the scissors to increase the wound size. A suction cup is held over the fetus's head as the brains are sucked out (AbortionTV). The body is removed and the womb is cleaned of any other birthing particles. The partial abortion procedure can have fatal side effects such as infection of the cervix, excessive bleeding of the womb, chances for the mother to be fertile decreases, and causes scarring of the uterine wall. Medical experts thought the fetus couldn't feel the pain of the scissors going through its head but, they were wrong. Studies show that it can feel the pain three to five times more than an adult that would experience it (AbortionTV). The tiny fetus's are sedated and numbed up so the won't feel the intense pain. Since the legalization of abortion, more than 126,000 abortions have been performed every day and more than 46,000,000 each year (AbortionTV). One may say they can't understand how a mother can just kill her child because of her irresponsibility. She may rebuttal back with the answer that the fetus is not yet human and it wouldn't feel any pain anyway. Studies show that the Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Fuel Consumption Problems and Solutions Essay Alexander Tischenko Professor Ball Solutions to the Oil Consumption Problem 8 March, 2012 Section 5 A couple weeks ago, I stopped at a gas station to fill up my tank. As a pizza delivery driver I spend a decent amount of money on gas every week. While I was getting gas, I wandered, are we ever going to run out of it and will we survive without it? In this essay I will attempt to solve one of the biggest problems in modern world – dependence and very large consumption of gasoline. According to the Seattle Times, Americans use over 880 million gallons of gasoline per day. With an average of 755 cars for every 1000 people, the United States of America consumes more gasoline than South America, Europe, Africa, and Asia combined (Source: ...show more content... I believe that instead of consuming more and more every year, and increasing the import of gasoline, not only the U.S., but the whole planet should limit themselves in consumption and find new ways to power their vehicles. The first solution that I'd like to propose is stimulating people to purchase vehicles with hybrid engines. In past two years, the automobile companies have been working very hard to create hybrid powered vehicles that will save as much gasoline as possible. The concept of hybrid engines is simple and effective. The hybrid engine consists of two parts: small gasoline powered engine and electric battery that is charged by the wheel rotation. In 2011, the average miles per gallon ratio was about forty five which is almost twice less than non–hybrid cars consume (http://www.greenhybrid.com). But only 2.6% of Americans own at least one hybrid vehicle which does not do enough impact on the consumption problem. In my opinion, this is where the government needs to step in. We need radical changes in vehicle production. First thing that the government needs to do is start stimulating people to buy electric powered vehicles by giving out loans, grants, or any extra money towards the purchase of the vehicles. Another thing that would help the problem is allowing people to trade in their old, gasoline powered vehicles for hybrid vehicles at little, or no cost. The cars that are Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Marine Pollution: Causes and Solutions Essay As the world develops and the human population grows there is more pollution being dumped into the oceans, causing major problems to marine life and ecosystems. Major causes of marine pollution involve non–point pollutants, marine garbage, toxic ocean pollutants and sewage disposal in oceans. From heavy metal poisoning including lead and mercury killing predators such as sharks and whales, to waste getting trapped in the digestive tracts of marine animals, this essay focuses on how human interference causes horrifying problems to the marine life, but also how to fix it. It will also explore the normal activities of people including farming and how this can cause an imbalance in an ecosystem . Everyday activities can cause massive nutrient ...show more content... PCB's (polychlorinated biphenyls) and dioxins have been in focus recently as there are concerns that the different structures are appearing to mimic the effects of female oestrogenic hormones. (Gray 1996) These chemicals can cause genetic chromosomal problems and major concerns to the reproductive effectiveness of marine animals. Oil spills and the burning of wood and coal can cause poly–aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which has a negative effect on all wildlife causing genetic abnormalities. (EMCBTAP–ENVIS Newsletter 2002). Global Warming Global warming is a major problem when providing a suitable habitat and lifestyle for ample marine life. With sea levels rising there are consequences to plant life in coastal wetlands that can not handle the amount of water being provided. The wetlands are important in their job to protect the species they contain and for stabilizing coastlines. Storms are increasing in magnitude and severity, causing the transport of nutrients to marine life to be disturbed. As shores move further inland animals will have to move and adapt, history has shown how this can decrease populations. In the future both rare and abundant species could become locally extinct, with rare species on the verge of becoming totally extinct. Marine garbage Another cause of marine pollution is the discarding of garbage into oceans, rivers and dams. The situation is a major problem causing harm to marine life and ecosystems all over the world. Old Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Problems with Education Essay Problems with Education Education is a very important aspect of the lives of all people all over the world. What we learn, not just in the classroom, shapes who we are. We take our education everywhere we go. We use it when talking to our buddies about sports or music, we use it while solving a math problem, we use our education while debating with our family whether or not we should watch TV or go to the movies. Our education is the foundation of who we are, since every decision we make and every thought we think is dependent on what we know.

School is also coercive, disciplinary and taught by many unmotivated teachers, so school being mandatory is just icing on the cake. Teachers and the school system completely control the way things are run and leave little room for students to do things their way. Teachers control what they teach, how to teach, how to discipline, what is assigned, etc. Students need to have more of a say in the way things are run since they are the majority. More freedom in decisions would create a more comfortable environment and students would thus have an easier time learning. There is also stress on a lack of communication since school is coercive. It is hard to reach a person if one doesn?t have a relationship with that person, and one way to deal with this is through addressing the students to hear their ideas and views on what direction should be taken. School is very similar to an oligarchy where the faculty is the monarch and students are the populous. It should be more of a democracy where all the students have a say in what happens, but how often is there a vote as to class and school decisions? The current curriculum is one in which a teacher says ?jump? and a student responds with ?how high.? And if a student responds with anything different, than they are reprimanded or punished.

Airline Industry Problems and Suggested Solutions The airline industry has over the past few months gradually been going into recession. This has been due to a number of factors, all affecting the industry in a negative manner at the same time. This has resulted in low profits and poor performance. The decline in the industry sharply increased after the terrorist attacks on the United States, increasing the urgency to clearly identify the causes of the problems faced and to find any solutions available to overcome them. One of the factors contributing to the poor performance has been the global economic slowdown whose effect has not been limited to the airline industry but has extended to many other industries. The effect of this ...show more content... But after the demand for military pilots declined, there were cutbacks. Pilot training is now no longer subsidized, forcing pilots to pay for their training. This has a high cost of approximately $70 000. Action must be taken to solve these problems to prevent more damage to the airline industry. The first step that companies should take is to try and deal with the losses they are making by reducing their costs as much as possible. There are various methods of doing achieving this. Job cuts could be made. This would reduce the cost of wages paid by the companies. However this may be met with opposition from employees. They may take industrial action to help and show support for their fellow employees that have been made redundant. Morale may also come down, as employees no longer feel that their jobs are secure. Companies could try to cutback on the number of planes used. This would reduce the cost of fuel and maintenance. The companies could also raise money through the sale of these unused plane and other assets. But this would mean that some routes would have to be cancelled so the airline would risk losing customers who use that particular route to competitors. Another option available would be for companies to adopt a policy of no hiring. This is when no new employees are hired. This would not reduce any costs but would prevent the addition of any further costs. The second step Get more content on StudyHub.Vip

Collective Action Problems And Solutions Essay Collective Action Problems & Incentives Required For Individuals to Work Together Collective action problems arise in politics because as individuals we are conflicted between our own interest and the interest of the group. Our choice is either to be selfish or cooperate with the group. "It involves building, combining, mixing, and amalgamating people's individual goals" (Lowi, et al. 13). There are three main theories as to why collective action problems exist. First, according to Mancur Olson individuals are tempted to free–ride which is getting a benefit without contributing to it and that no individual is incentivized to work for the collective good. (Lowi, et al 571). Free– riding becomes a bigger issues as a group gets larger. Second, the Prisoner's Dilemma is a theory in which there are two individuals in a situation were neither has an incentive to cooperate although both would be better off if they did cooperate. Third, the tragedy of commons occurs when individuals' use of a resource causes its depletion however it's supposed to be shared by everyone. Collective action problems are difficult to solve because a group is formed to achieve common goals however as individuals we have different objectives and preferences. This is most evident in politics . My goal in this paper is to provide three different solutions to collective action problems in politics specifically in political parties, electoral process and interest groups.

Overfishing: The Problem and the Solution Your Name Axia College of University of Phoenix Overfishing: The Problem and the Solution A major environmental problem that has developed over the last few years is overfishing. What is overfishing? Overfishing is simply what it sounds like. Overfishing occurs when fishermen are catching fish so quickly and at such high rates that the fish are unable to reproduce fast enough to replenish the population.
