.... filed a suit against the school on the basis that the evidence found was obtained illegally becauce no search warrent was used. In 1985 the case got all the way to the supreme court. The court ruled that the fourth amendment rights didn't apply in the school, and school officialsstill have to have reasonable suspicion not probale cause. Another famous case is the case TINKER Vs DES MOINES where two students wanted to protest the war by wearing arm bands. When the school officials saw what the two students were wearing the teachers demanded that the students take the arm bands off at once. The case got all the way to the United States Supreme Cou .....

.... teachers can help students see how each individual fits into the big picture. There are, however, arguments against multicultural education (Banks, 1995). For example, some critics believe that multicultural education is directed toward only minority groups, thus discriminating against middle class, white, heterosexual males. Others believe that multiculturalism is against Western and democratic ideals. A final argument is the claim that multiculturalism will divide our presumably united nation. Although critics of multicultural education may feel they have valid arguments against the issue, I feel that the goals of multicultural education .....

.... offender will stop for now and then continue later when the teacher is out of site and out of mind. Our solution is to equip each and every student and teacher with a pocket size tube of super-glue, and require them to use it on any one caught showing unacceptable PDA's. We feel that if the two offenders want to be that close in school, why not make them that close always. Maybe when they see how annoying this gets to be then this will discourage them from committing these acts in school again. If this course of action does not prove effective then we will be forced to simply bring them all into a room where they can be alone. While they are alon .....

.... investigate the viability of charter schools in spite of fervent opposition from school trustees and the Teacher's unions. (Dube, A4) Some say the charter movement in Canada is an attempt to allow for increased local participation in decision making, save money by cutting down on costly administration and foster innovation through competition. (Lawton, 23) Others insist it is part of the neo-liberal agenda to crush labour unions, and allow the market to operate unfettered without costly government intervention. These people contend that adoption of a market based system will lead to a two-tiered system of winners and losers and that those in great .....

.... school environment one which is most effective in promoting learning. As an example, if a student in school commits a disciplinary action, instead of being indiscriminately punished, that student would be sent to see the school psychologist to find out the causes of the students misbehavior and deal with them accordingly (Frandsen 92). Though studies of educational surveys, there were nine major factors that increased learning. These nine factors can be placed into three groups: student aptitude, instruction, and psychological environments. Student aptitude includes (1) ability or prior achievement as measured by score on educational test; (2) .....

.... to the second and the third to the fourth, when, if any equimultiples whatever be taken of the first and third, and any equimultiples whatever of the second and fourth, the former equimultiples alike exceed, are alike equal to, or alike fall short of, the latter equimultiples respectively taken in corresponding order." From this it follows that magnitudes in the same ratio are proportional. Thus, we can use the following algebraic proportion to represent definition 5.5: (m)a : (n)b :: (m)c : (n)d. However, it is necessary to be more specific because of the way in which the definition was worded with the phrase "the former equimultiples ali .....

.... rest of the world, and todays public school system is not prepared to facilitate the major leap forward that our educational system needs. Before 1965, America's public school system was producing better educated students with less money and fewer supplies than today. Each class was approximately 40% larger than today's classes, and they functioned with about one-third of the real dollar expenditures of present day schools. They taught with fewer books and less equipment, and did not have any of todays audio-visual material and equipment. Then, between 1965 and 1980, real dollar expenditures per student doubled as teacher to student ratio dropp .....

.... contrast in US high schools students can take a lest those classes that they like. Third, the exams in my country was pretty the same as US system. First of all, in my county all high students we had to wear uniform. We had to wear black skirts, white tops, black shoes and black tights. The good thing about uniform was that it wasn't expensive for parents to get uniform for their children each year, second, it was good for students to concentrate only on there classes and third it was very organized. For instance, in my family three person went to high school and parents bought us uniforms only once a year which was not very expensive, second ev .....

.... They mystify the topic by making it appear very important, but unknowable, thus leaving the student with a sense of wonder, or mystery. Mystification does count as a form of knowledge control because mystification makes it impossible for a student to gain a full understanding of a topic from inside the classroom. Mystification could be a way for students to get out of the classroom. This would allow them to get out on their own to learn more about topics they are learning about in school. Gene Anyon would enjoy the idea of mystification. Mystification would encourage students to work outside of the "boring" classroom and learn more extensiv .....

.... "The injustices of censorship were in full force at least as early as 1644, the year English writer John Milton wrote his famous Areopagitica to defend freedom of the press" (Tax 154). Last year alone, there were more instances of school censorship than any year since 1982 (Clark 171). The most challenged books deal with the following subjects: sex, feminism, teen rebelliousness, AIDS, homosexuality, the negative African-American experience, and non-Christian viewpoints. The overwhelming majority of book objections come from parents in the community who have no authority on what should be censored and what should not be censored (Clark 54). Deanna Dub .....
