7 Big Ideas as You Shift Toward Online Teaching
The bad news? You can’t convert your course.
The Mindset Shift: From Converting to Transforming
Equity Matters
Seven Big Ideas as You Shift Toward Distance Learning
Big Idea #1: Students should be creating original content.
Big Idea #2: Be sure to leverage the power of online collaboration.
Synchronous/Asynchronous Hybrids:
Walkie Talkie apps, such as Voxer
Big Idea #3: Empower your students to own their learning in an online environment.
Big Idea #4: Provide opportunities for vintage and digital mashups.
Big Idea #5: Be intentional with the design of your online classes.
Big Idea #6: Take a “show and tell” approach.
Big Idea #7: Be present and available as a teacher.
John Spencer
Content: We can’t simply substitute new tools and do the same exact activity. In other words, that rich, spontaneous, Socratic Seminar simply won’t work in a discussion board or through a video conferencing system. That amazing collaborative design challenge doesn’t transfer easily when students move out of the makerspace and into their own homes. See, the problem with the idea of converting instruction is that you only see the limitations. You take a great in-person activity and then you try to do your best to substitute it with digital tools. But this will always lead to a deficit. The Mindset Shift: From Converting to Transforming
But what if we chose a different approach? What if we asked, “How do I transform my course?” rather than “How do I convert it?” | http://www.spencerauthor.com/online-teaching/ |

When Feedback Goes Unnoticed
Seven Strategies for Improving Student Feedback
#1: Explain the purpose of the feedback
#2: Don’t provide a grade with your feedback.
#3: Provide revision time in class.
#4: Build bridges from feedback to revision.
#5: Use a mix of feedback tools.
#6: Vary the Grouping
Part One:
Part Two:
#7: Make it visible.
John Spencer
Content: This helps clarify any misunderstandings they might have. Give them a chance to revise their work. I’ve actually been using a modified version of this with my current pre-service teachers as they develop their lesson plans and unit plans. As a result, each teacher candidate has a clear sense of what they know, what they don’t know, and what they will do to improve. #3: Provide revision time in class. Often, in education, we value speed and accuracy more than depth and mastery. Students take timed math tests and focus on fluency in reading. They watch the tight time deadlines, knowing that if they fall behind, they’ll be seen as slow. I’ve seen some students struggle with the whole idea of revision because they’ve rarely needed to revise their work at school. | http://www.spencerauthor.com/student-feedback/ |

The State Council, China's cabinet -- headed by the pedantic and schoolmaster-like 64-year-old Prime Minister Wen Jiabao -- deals with the day-to-day business of government. The cabinet meets at least three times a month, as required by law, in a building located a stone's throw from the offices of the Politburo. Meetings are graced with tall beauties dressed in red outfits and white gloves, who serve cabinet members green tea from the Wuyuan district in Jiangxi Province. Red China, Inc.'s central nervous system
In addition to Wen, this inner circle of the Chinese government includes four deputy premiers, five members of the State Council (including one general) and a secretary general. Comprised of eight men and two women, the group directs and coordinates the work of 28 ministries and commissions, including the country's central bank and its central auditing authority. It also presides over an immense number of government agencies, including China's official news agency, Xinhua, the Academy of Sciences, the customs agency, the weather bureau, an agency in charge of grain production and distribution and -- not to be overlooked -- the Administration of Government Offices, which provides high-ranking officials with living quarters, cars and vacation homes. All the elements in the network that make up Red China, Inc. come together in Wen's State Council. The body controls daily life in China with a plethora of decrees, memorandums, plans, measures and responses. In the month of September alone, it issued a decree on the "Administration of Payment of the Automobile Sales Tax," approved "Basic Regulations for the Electricity Market" and organized "Safety Inspections of Dams that include Power Plants." | http://www.spiegel.de/international/spiegel/red-china-inc-does-communism-work-after-all-a-465007.html |

Century of Massacres Remembering Bremen, the First-Ever School Shooting
One hundred years ago, a gunman entered a school in Bremen, Germany, and killed five girls in the first-ever mass school shooting. The similarities with the dozens of horrifying attacks that have come since are haunting. Von René Schlott

On Friday, June 20, 1913, 100 years ago, death arrived at the Marienschule school in Bremen, Germany. What happened that day wasn't just any old murder -- it was the first documented mass school shooting in history. It was shortly before 11 a.m., as teacher Maria Pohl lined her students up in two lines to leave the school building for recess. As the girls began to move, a man stormed up the stairs and opened fire. His name was Heinz Jacob Friedrich Ernst Schmidt, a 29-year-old unemployed teacher who had only lived in the city since December of the previous year. Panic broke out as Schmidt continued to fire his gun. | http://www.spiegel.de/international/zeitgeist/a-century-after-the-first-school-shooting-in-bremen-a-906996.html |

A few other girls retreated back into the classroom, where they were pursued by the killer. The five- and six-year old girls begged for their lives: " Uncle, please don't shoot us!" | http://www.spiegel.de/international/zeitgeist/a-century-after-the-first-school-shooting-in-bremen-a-906996.html |

Topics Free Speech
Imagine if the Founding Fathers had conceived of liberty and freedom in contemporary terms, as problems to be managed, as sources of risk and harm. Imagine if Thomas Jefferson had penned the Declaration of Independence now, with the assertion that life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness were inalienable rights coupled with the get-out ‘except when said pursuit causes ill health’. Imagine if the American Constitution and, subsequently, the Bill of Rights had been drawn up today, complete with a set of sub-claused qualifications and caveats about offending people on grounds of race or religion. As for the First Amendment, so crystalline in its protection of free speech and press freedom, it just could not have been formulated today in the way that it was. ‘ Congress’, it runs, ‘shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.’ It doesn’t say ‘Congress shall make no law abridging freedom of speech except when a person uses threatening, abusive or insulting words likely to stir up hatred’. It doesn’t say ‘Congress shall make no law abridging freedom of speech except when it is necessary to protect health or morals, or the reputation or rights of others’. | http://www.spiked-online.com/freespeechnow/fsn_article/yes-freedom-of-speech-should-be-absolute |

Not everyone was dead smart during the Age of Enlightenment. It’s just that at that moment freedom, and free speech, was seen in its positive aspect, as something that benefitted humankind, a principle that prevented a government from slipping towards tyranny, that allowed the ‘better angels of our nature’ to flourish, that aided the pursuit of truth. See, for instance, Madison’s criticisms of the Alien and Sedition Acts in 1800 in which he drew on the First Amendment to defend the press’s right to be ‘seditious’, and made a case for ‘the intent to excite… unfavourable sentiments against those who administer the government’. For Madison, then, the freedom to lambast public figures, to excite others’ antagonism towards those figures – something that today would be classed as ‘incitement to hatred’ – was far more important than protecting those figures from emotional harm. The emphasis always fell on freedom of speech, and never its restriction. | http://www.spiked-online.com/freespeechnow/fsn_article/yes-freedom-of-speech-should-be-absolute |

Content: Today, the Founding Fathers, and later the likes of John Stuart Mill, whose defence of free speech was, at points, equally as stalwart as his liberal predecessors across the pond, are implicitly assumed to have underestimated the harm in free speech. They were naive; they didn’t know what we know now; namely, that freedom of speech is never absolute, that there must be limits. Just think of the number of people who proclaim their support for free speech before reeling off a list of reasons why its exercise must be limited. In the UK, for instance, the head of civil-liberties group Liberty, Shami Chakrabarti, is seemingly more concerned with the problems of free speech than its benefits – hence she once talked of ‘respecting freedom of conscience, thought and religion and free speech within such proportionate limits as are necessary to protect others’. Little wonder she ended up sat on the ‘panel of experts’ at the press-freedom-quashing Leveson Inquiry. Podcast

Or take an even more prominent example: article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights. ‘ Everyone has the right to freedom of expression’, it says, before stating that this freedom ‘may be subject to such formalities, conditions, restrictions or penalties as are prescribed by law and are necessary in a democratic society, in the interests of national security, territorial integrity or public safety, for the prevention of disorder or crime, for the protection of health or morals, for the protection of the reputation or rights of others, for preventing the disclosure of information received in confidence, or for maintaining the authority and impartiality of the judiciary’. | http://www.spiked-online.com/freespeechnow/fsn_article/yes-freedom-of-speech-should-be-absolute |

Whatever this ‘fundamental right’ is, given the volume of restrictions on it, it is not freedom of speech in any true sense; rather, it’s speech within given limits. Indeed, it’s very difficult to find anyone who will defend free speech as an absolute. Sure, virtually every figure in public life will say they support free speech, but that’s usually just a prelude to a statement saying why it must be limited. Of course, if you defend freedom of speech absolutely, this does not mean defending the freedom to commit perjury, for instance. | http://www.spiked-online.com/freespeechnow/fsn_article/yes-freedom-of-speech-should-be-absolute |

Content: That’s an act which undermines the principles of a justice system and makes it unworkable – there is no freedom to lie under oath. Likewise, telling someone to kill someone, while pressing a gun into the palm of their hand, is not an act of free speech; it’s incitement to murder. Incredible as it might seem, it is possible to defend free speech absolutely without defending perjury or incitement to murder (clue: these are not issues of free speech). Hence the architects of the Bill or Rights felt no need to add in caveats to that effect – because neither they nor the citizens they represented were idiots. But the majority of those who accompany their profession of support for free speech with a whole raft of anti-free-speech qualifications do so for subtler reasons. They emphasise the harm that speech can do. They talk, as one columnist did recently, of ‘issues of security and personal safety, of the value of truth and honesty, the need to treat others with respect’.

What becomes clear is that all those who determinedly qualify freedom out of speech don’t really believe in free speech at all. They pose as reasonable and moderate. And they act as if their worries over unfettered free speech are born of a concern for others.

Native Americans believe nature is divine; they are only a part of nature, and not here to dominate it. Their ceremonies are for the regeneration of Mother Earth, a direct contrast to western beliefs and policies. What knowledge Native Americans have to offer is therefore disregarded or silenced through government segregation and control. In fact, Native Americans ceremonies were prohibited by law before the passage of the Indian Freedom Act in 1978. | http://www.spiritalk.net/native-americans-nahealin.html |

Idaho still ranks low on education spending
Wed., May 22, 2013
By Scott Maben [email protected] (509) 459-5528
Below average
Idaho and Washington both fall below the national average of $10,560 per student. Idaho remains stuck near the bottom of public education funding, ranking second to last of all states in per-student spending for a third straight year, according to U.S. Census Bureau data released Monday. Idaho spent $6,824 per student in the 2010-11 school year, above only Utah, according to the latest available figures. Neighboring Washington ranked 30th – up two spots from the previous year – with $9,483 spent per student. “Coming from Washington, it was certainly eye-opening to see the funding in Idaho,” said Matthew Handelman, Coeur d’Alene School District assistant superintendent. “ We combat perception (of underfunding education) by working hard and doing our best – just like everyone else out there we’re trying to be leaner and meaner.” Idaho and Washington both fall below the national average of $10,560 per student. And that is down 0.4 percent from the year before – the first decrease in per-student spending since the bureau began collecting data in 1977. “I don’t know whether a student or a parent knows we don’t have enough funding,” Handelman said. | http://www.spokesman.com/stories/2013/may/22/idaho-still-ranks-low-on-education-spending/ |

And we do it.” The census figures also include rankings for school spending per $1,000 in per-capita income for each state. By that measure, Idaho ranked 42nd, which is a drop from the previous year’s ranking of 38th and far below the state’s 17th ranking in 2001. | http://www.spokesman.com/stories/2013/may/22/idaho-still-ranks-low-on-education-spending/ |

Washington long has scored low in the measure of spending per $1,000 in personal income because of the state’s relatively high personal income, which has been well above the national average for years. Washington was 46th on that measure in 2010-11, a slight improvement from 49th place the year before. Nationally, property taxes accounted for 65.6 percent of revenue from local sources for public school systems.

Content: The share of Idaho’s personal income that goes to schools dropped 23 percent from 2000 to 2013, according to the Idaho Center for Fiscal Policy.

Nationally, property taxes accounted for 65.6 percent of revenue from local sources for public school systems. Idaho state Superintendent of Schools Tom Luna said, “How much we spend per student is an important factor, but it’s not the only factor.” He said Idaho’s low ranking is influenced by demographics. “ There’s a reason that Idaho and Utah constantly end up at the bottom end … and it’s because we have large families,” Luna said, adding that he has six children. “ We have fewer taxpayers per student in Idaho than we have in many other states.” The 2000 Census found that Utah had the highest number of children under 18 per family, followed by Alaska at second-highest, Idaho third, and California fourth. However, Alaska ranked third-highest for per-student spending; | http://www.spokesman.com/stories/2013/may/22/idaho-still-ranks-low-on-education-spending/ |

Content: California was 36th. While acknowledging that Idaho’s school funding per student compares poorly to other states, Luna said, “What I measure our system against isn’t how much are we spending per student – it’s are we getting the results?” Currently, he said, the answer is no – too few Idaho students go on to college or other higher education after high school. He said that means Idaho schools need reform. The top per-student spenders were New York ($19,076), the District of Columbia ($18,475), Alaska ($16,674), New Jersey ($15,968) and Vermont ($15,925). Other states ranking near the bottom include Mississippi ($7,928), Arizona ($7,666), Oklahoma ($7,587) and Utah ($6,212). Out of the 16 states with the lowest per-student spending, 15 were in the South and West. Reporters Jody Lawrence-Turner and Betsy Z. Russell contributed to this report.

Content: Fingers are in the middle of most sports, and they tend to get hurt. Symptoms of a Jammed Finger
Pain, swelling, loss of motion, and loss of strength are all very common symptoms of a jammed finger. Swelling within the joint is very obvious, and you can usually tell very easily when you have suffered a finger sprain. One knuckle will swell up, and it will look noticibly bigger than the others. Unfortunately, this swelling often lasts for weeks if not months. Sometimes it never completely goes away. Pain and motion usually come back fairly quickly, depending on how severe the sprain is. Treating a Jammed Finger
Treating pain and swelling are the first steps of treating a jammed finger. As soon after injury as you can, use the R.I.C.E. Principles to help reduce your pain and discomfort. Depending on how much pain, swelling, and loss of motion you have, you may need to see your physician. | http://www.sports-injury-info.com/jammed-finger.html |

Treating pain and swelling are the first steps of treating a jammed finger. As soon after injury as you can, use the R.I.C.E. Principles to help reduce your pain and discomfort. Depending on how much pain, swelling, and loss of motion you have, you may need to see your physician. This is especially true if you took a pretty hard hit to the finger, or if it was bent backwards violently. You may have suffered a finger fracture and not just a sprain. It is sometimes hard to differentiate between the two, so an X-ray may be a good idea to be safe. Once a fracture is ruled out, you can begin working on improving your range of motion and strength. Use ice and rest for a few days, and then begin trying to bend and straighten the finger. | http://www.sports-injury-info.com/jammed-finger.html |

Generalizing to a Population: CONFIDENCE LIMITS
Content: The lower and upper confidence limits need to be interpreted separately. The lower (or numerically smaller) limit shows how small the effect might be in the population; the upper limit shows how large the effect might be. Of course, you'll never know whether it really is that small or big unless you go out and measure the whole population. Or more subjects, anyway. Which brings us to the next important point: the more subjects, the narrower the confidence interval. Effect of Sample Size on the Confidence Interval
H ere's a figure showing how the width of the confidence interval depends on the number of subjects, for a correlation coefficient. It's the sort of thing you would get if you took bigger and bigger samples from a population. Notice that you can't say anything useful about the population correlation when the sample has only 4 subjects. | http://www.sportsci.org/resource/stats/generalize.html |

" Our region is one of the hottest sports markets in the country and this is a great fit for Fort Worth. We look forward to showcasing all of our athletic and visitor amenities to competitors, coaches and fans.” "Metroplex Gymnastics is excited to host the 2016 Women’s Junior Olympic National Championships,” said Bryan Streeter, owner of Metroplex. " This will be the second time for Metroplex to host this event, and because it was such an enjoyable experience in 2010, we jumped at the opportunity to host it again in 2016. We can’t wait to see everyone in Texas!” The Junior Olympic National Championships is the culmination event for the competitive season. The competition features 12 age divisions (Junior A, Junior B, Junior C, Junior D, Junior E, Junior F, Senior A, Senior B, Senior C, Senior D, Senior E and Senior F), which are determined by birth date. These gymnasts are vying to become Junior Olympic national champions in the all-around, as well as in all four events: | http://www.sportsdestinations.com/sports/gymnastics/news/usa-gymnastics-selects-sites-2016-9000 |

Content: Player (s)/coach (es)/ other member club employee (s) v. Player (s)/coach (es)/ other member club employee (s), besides unrelated disputes & disputes outside the scope of employment within the League; Player v. League Official; and
Member (s) of the League/player (s)/other League member employee (s) (or any combination of those) v. Member (s) of the League/player (s)/League member employee (s) (or any combination of those), where the issue stems from "conduct detrimental to the best interests of the League or professional football" as determined by the Commissioner according to section 8.6. Moreover, the power accorded here rises to the level expressed as "full, complete, and final jurisdiction." Strictly speaking, the Commissioner gets the power paralleling one of our nation's branches of government - the judicial branch - from this section because the NFL Commissioner can (a) sit and hear each side's case and then make an enforceable final determination on the dispute, and (b) interpret the rules and determine what constitutes "conduct detrimental to the best interests of the League or professional football." As you'll see below, powers paralleling our nation's other two branches of government - the legislative and executive branches - are also bestowed upon the Commissioner through the rules in Article VIII. The arbitrator power is easily susceptible to public criticism, and every NFL Commissioner has steadily seen a fair share of it because in the grand scheme of things, it feels unnatural and unfair given our democratic preferences for one entity to hold so much "endgame" power, and this authority could be the most natural and fair to pass off to another entity for checks-and-balances' sake. 2. Financial Power to Conduct League Business (section 8.4)
Similar to the president of any traditional business entity, the Commissioner sits on the NFL Executive Committee and has the most powerful voice in the room (i.e., he is the head honcho and has power paralleling executive branches of government). So, as the League's principal executive officer, he must preside at all League and Committee meetings and maintain supervision of League business affairs, generally. | http://www.sportslawblondes.com/blog/2017/11/22/a-quick-reference-guide-to-the-nfl-constitution-bylaws-article-viii |

So, as the League's principal executive officer, he must preside at all League and Committee meetings and maintain supervision of League business affairs, generally. All proper business charges go through him for approval before payment as well. The Commissioner has financial-related authority outside the meeting room, too. Akin to presidents, the Commissioner can act and incur necessary costs on behalf of the League in its ordinary course of business without approval from anyone else. In other words, the Commissioner "in his sole discretion" can bind the entity to what he determines are necessary costs, and section 8.4 (A) expressly uses that language. Actions falling under this provision include, but are not limited to, "the leasing of office space and the hiring of employees and other assistance or service." | http://www.sportslawblondes.com/blog/2017/11/22/a-quick-reference-guide-to-the-nfl-constitution-bylaws-article-viii |

Murals mirror movements
Content: “Latinos are a group-oriented society,” Burciaga continued in his 1988 interview. “ Most of Mexico’s national heroes were martyrs, having died in service to the people–from Miguel Hidalgo, father of Mexican independence, who was executed, to revolutionary heroes Francisco Villa and Zapata, who were ambushed and assassinated.” While pinpointing the “top 13 Chicano heroes” is a contested and highly subjective task, the choices nevertheless reflected the opinions of students at the time. “Murals are a sort of a reimagining of a community’s values,” said Jeff Chang, associate director of Health & Safety Programs and executive director of the Institute for Diversity in the Arts. “ Images become these spaces where people then have big fights over what these values are around the community…But the best thing is that they’re open to multiple interpretations and that encourages the dialogue and the discourse within the community.” The Casa Zapata murals continue to grow. The lounge mural depicting the immigrant’s journey to the United States is unfinished. Sarita Ocon ’04 returns to campus from time to time to fill in the blank spaces. (NICK SALAZAR/The Stanford Daily)
Gonzalez reflected on the popular nature of the murals. “The common people, the poor people, they would see art, and they wanted to see art that would represent everyone,” he said. “ | http://www.stanforddaily.com/2012/05/02/murals-mirror-movements/ |

Content: By utilizing
ongoing information on achievement, teachers can maintain consistent and
challenging expectations for all students. Students and parents should be
informed of the students' progress toward achieving district goals and
objectives
through comments on individual work, progress reports, conferencing, report
cards, and other measures. Students should be encouraged to participate in
self-assessment as a way of motivating students to improve academic
achievement. Instructional Strategies
When
a profession deals with people, cause-and-effect relationships are never identified
as certainties, only as possibilities. Therefore, there are no certainties in
teaching. It is a situational process requiring constant decision-making which,
when properly implemented, increases the probability of learning. Research on
teacher effectiveness has been intensified in the last two decades. The results
have helped identify an instructional process that provides a solid and basic
framework for planning instruction which is helpful in guiding the
administrator in what to look for when visiting a classroom. These steps
include planning, preparing, presenting the lesson, monitoring student
progress, and conducting practice sessions. Planning the Lesson
Formulating
a well-defined objective of the lesson is a critical first step as it provides
the direction and framework for the decisions which will follow. | http://www.stanswartz.com/adminbook/chap3.htm |

Barges soon will float massive concrete spans, each weighing more than some commercial airliners, to the new St. Croix River bridge two miles south of Stillwater. From there, cranes will drop them into place to form Minnesota’s newest link to Wisconsin.

Barges soon will float massive concrete spans, each weighing more than some commercial airliners, to the new St. Croix River bridge two miles south of Stillwater. From there, cranes will drop them into place to form Minnesota’s newest link to Wisconsin. In coming months, hundreds of sightseers on excursion boats will look on with interest at the completion of a bridge that’s already transforming a woodsy river valley by its colossal size. Never has a public works project put its stamp so dramatically on the nationally protected river: It’s a $646 million monument, including new connecting highways in both states, that 35 entities warred over for four decades. Now, with the 20-story bridge beginning to span the river and halfway to completion, it’s inspiring a variety of reactions, from admiration over its physical presence to confirmation that it stains a pristine river valley as opponents long feared. “The engineering side of it is an absolute marvel. To see it from the air is awe-inspiring,” said Mike Demulling, airport manager in New Richmond, Wis. “It reminds me of flying into New York City and seeing the George Washington Bridge. These are monuments that last hundreds of years.” | http://www.startribune.com/st-croix-river-bridge-project-now-halfway-finished/299463491/ |

Opponents still mourn. “The new bridge is so far removed from the river that it is just another piece of highway,” said Deb Ryun of the St. Croix River Association. “ Now that highway is imposing itself on what historically has been a beautiful little river town. That will be emotionally hard for a lot of people to get over.” Kozlowski, Stillwater’s new mayor, said that even though efforts to stop the project failed, the river still needs vigorous protection. | http://www.startribune.com/st-croix-river-bridge-project-now-halfway-finished/299463491/ |

Crews worked on the St. Croix River bridge Friday. The 20-story structure is halfway to completion. Jill Greenhalgh, a past president of the Stillwater Foundation, said it’s time to heal old wounds. A long stretch of the riverfront, bought recently for public use, is a “fantastic enhancement” that will link nicely with the new biking loop, she said. “Will people forget about Stillwater?” she asked recently. “ Or come back here?

What Facebook and Twitter Mean for News
By Amy Mitchell, Tom Rosenstiel and Leah Christian
Perhaps no topic in technology attracted more attention in 2011 than the rise of social media and its potential impact on news. “ If searching for news was the most important development of the last decade, sharing news may be among the most important of the next,” we wrote in a May 2011 report analyzing online news behavior called Navigating News Online. At the moment, Facebook and, to a lesser extent, Twitter, dominate this intersection of social media and news. As written about in detail in the Digital chapter of this report, eMarketer reports that Facebook had 133 million active users in the U.S. at the end of 2011. Facebook defines “active users” as those who interact with Facebook content at least once a month. Despite debates about defining “active users,” there is little question about the site’s popularity or its “stickiness,” the degree to which some users are there a lot: Facebook users spent an average of 423 minutes each on the site in December. By contrast, a PEJ analysis of Nielsen Net View data puts the average time on a top 25 news site at just under 12 minutes per month. Even in 2010, all but one of those top news sites, with the exception being Google News, obtained a portion of their traffic from Facebook. And in 2011, Facebook furthered the news element of its platform with developments like the Social Reader, which allows users to follow, read and share news without ever leaving the network. | http://www.stateofthemedia.org/2012/mobile-devices-and-news-consumption-some-good-signs-for-journalism/what-facebook-and-twitter-mean-for-news/ |

And in 2011, Facebook furthered the news element of its platform with developments like the Social Reader, which allows users to follow, read and share news without ever leaving the network. How much are consumers relying on Facebook for their daily news information, especially in comparison with using search or going directly to news websites or apps? And when they do get news on these networks, does it come from friends and family or from news organizations they follow? And finally, how is this news viewed? A new survey released as part of this year’s annual State of the News Media Report probes news consumption and habits on different digital devices, including how news consumers use social media. The broader findings are covered in a companion special report on mobile devices. | http://www.stateofthemedia.org/2012/mobile-devices-and-news-consumption-some-good-signs-for-journalism/what-facebook-and-twitter-mean-for-news/ |

About the Survey
Content: Most of these users also feel that without Twitter, they would have missed this kind of news. Facebook and Twitter Are Still Relatively Small Drivers for News
Over all, just 9% of digital news consumers very often follow news recommendations from Facebook or from Twitter on any of the three digital devices ( computers, smartph o n e s or ta blets ). That compares with more than a third, 36%, who very often go directly to news organizations on one of their devices, 32% who get news from search very often, and 29% who turn to some sort of news organizer site or app. Among just digital news consumers (excluding those who say they do not get news online), the percentage who get at least some news from one of these two leading social networks rises to 52%. But this still trails by a large margin other ways of getting news (92% go directly to news websites and 85% use search). There are also substantial differences in the data between how people use each of these two forms of social media, what they think about it and who those users are. Between the Two Social Media Options, Facebook Leads
More than twice as many digital news consumers follow news recommendations from Facebook than follow them from Twitter. And that remains consistent across different digital devices (computers, smartphones or tablets). In all, on any device, 7% get news on Facebook very often, compared with 3% who do so on Twitter. Those populations may grow, or at least involve a broader universe of casual users. | http://www.stateofthemedia.org/2012/mobile-devices-and-news-consumption-some-good-signs-for-journalism/what-facebook-and-twitter-mean-for-news/ |

Content: Students also spend a lot of money clothing themselves. Nationally, students spend more than $5 billion a year on clothes and shoes. By the time they reach college, full-time students represent over sixty billion dollars in buying power. This amount usually increases once the student graduates and becomes employed. Marketers who can successfully reach these young adults with a quality product, positive message, and clear value, may enjoy decades of loyal purchasing and millions of dollars worth of free, word-of-mouth marketing.

Death rate for homicide in the U.S. 1950-2018
Published by Statista Research Department , Mar 2, 2021
In 2018, there were 5.9 deaths by homicide per 100,000 of the population in the United States. This is an increase from 1950, when there were 5.1 deaths by homicide per 100,000 resident population in the United States. Homicides in the United States
The term homicide is used when a human being is killed by another human being. Criminal homicide takes several forms, for example murder; but homicide is not always a crime, it also includes affirmative defense, insanity, self-defense or the execution of convicted criminals. Youth homicide is especially seen as a problem of urban areas, due to poverty, limited adult supervision, involvement in drug and gang activities, and school failure. Young men aged 15-24 show the highest risk of being killed in the United States in 2016. There is a large difference between female and males within this age group: about 20.1 male homicide deaths per 100,000 residents, and 3.3 female homicide deaths per 100,000 residents were counted that year. Comparing regions around the world, Africa is the continent with the highest share of homicides in 2010. | http://www.statista.com/statistics/187592/death-rate-from-homicide-in-the-us-since-1950/ |

The Americas are ranked second, making up 31 percent of all global homicides in that same year. As of 2008, about 90 percent of homicide victims in the Americas were male and only 10 percent of homicide victims were female. Whereas in Europe, about 27 percent of homicide victims were female and approximately 73 percent of homicide victims were male.

Data for 1950 and 1960 Include deaths of persons who were not residents of the 50 states and the District of Columbia (D.C.). Underlying cause of death was coded according to the 6th Revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) in 1950, 7th Revision in 1960, 8th Revision in 1970, and 9th Revision in 1980-1998. Starting with 1999 data, cause of death is coded according to ICD-10. Rates are age-adjusted. Age-adjusted rates are calculated using the year 2000 standard population. Prior to 2003, age-adjusted rates were calculated using standard million proportions based on rounded population numbers. | http://www.statista.com/statistics/187592/death-rate-from-homicide-in-the-us-since-1950/ |

Reasons for the Rank-Size Rule
See also:
Content: In short, the rank-size rule occurs because: The relationship between population size and population rank is inherently negative. This is obvious and accounts for much of the strong fit, but alone doesn’t account for the multiplicative and convex (to the origin) relationship. Growth rates are independent of city size (or at least weakly related) and absolute growth is roughly proportional to city size. This is known as Gibrat’s Law or Gibrat’s rule of proportional growth. For example, a city grows on average at a rate of 1% per year, regardless of the city’s size. The growth rates between cities aren’t equal. The growth rates within cities also vary over time, but some cities would on average grow faster than others. Gibrat’s law and the unequal growth rates, lead to a strengthening of the multiplicative relationship over time. In the long run, a multiplicative convex (to the origin) relationship would develop even if the initial relationship was linear or multiplicative but concave to the origin, or if the initial population sizes were equal. | http://www.statisticalconsultants.co.nz/blog/the-rank-size-rule-of-city-populations.html |

The following animated gifs show simulated rank-size distributions changing over time. Each example has a different starting distribution (linear, constant or concave to the origin), and each observation within an example is randomly assigned a growth rate. At each step of the simulation, a unit of time passes, and the populations of each city grow proportionately by their assigned growth rate. The rankings change if one city’s population overtakes another. Example 1: | http://www.statisticalconsultants.co.nz/blog/the-rank-size-rule-of-city-populations.html |

Content: That is a visible sign. Instituted by Christ
The Lord Jesus Christ instructed His church to offer the seven
sacraments to His followers. For example, His directive to His
disciples in Matthew's Gospel (28/19), "Go then, to all peoples
everywhere and make them my disciples; baptize them in the name
of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit and teach them to obey
everything I have commanded you." To give grace
Grace is God's free gift of Himself as the controlling influence in
our life and the decisions we make once we have committed ourselves
to Him in faith. In summary, a sacrament is one of the means God has chosen to influence our life in the direction of his purpose for giving us life. The seven sacraments are Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist, Reconciliation, Anointing of the Sick, Holy Orders, and Matrimony. Baptism
Baptism marks the entry of the believer into the Christian community. Along with Confirmation and Eucharist, it is one of the Sacraments of Initiation, giving access to the full sacramental life of the Church. Through Baptism we are freed from sin and joined with Christ, sharing in His divinity and destined for eternal life. | http://www.stclementcincinnati.org/FaithFormation/The7CatholicSacraments.aspx |

Along with Confirmation and Eucharist, it is one of the Sacraments of Initiation, giving access to the full sacramental life of the Church. Through Baptism we are freed from sin and joined with Christ, sharing in His divinity and destined for eternal life. Baptism leaves us permanently changed, no longer the person we once were, but a new person, dying to death and sin, and rising to new life in Christ. In the words of St. Paul, "We were buried with Him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so too may we live a new life." ( Romans 6:4). The rite consists of pouring water over the head while saying the Trinitarian formula. Anyone can baptize in an emergency, although the usual minister of the sacrament is a priest or deacon. | http://www.stclementcincinnati.org/FaithFormation/The7CatholicSacraments.aspx |

As people of God, we all share in the priesthood of Christ, and so the Church speaks meaningfully of "the priesthood of all believers." Each of us is to exercise our priesthood by strengthening and serving one another. Within the Church there are many means of service. One way of service stands out as a sacrament, namely Holy Orders, which ordains the recipient to the office of bishop, priest or deacon. The priest's special calling is first and foremost to preach the Good News of God's love and humanity. In offering himself as a candidate for the priesthood, he must give evidence of wisdom and spiritual maturity, as he is called to lead the Christian community with patience and kindness. | http://www.stclementcincinnati.org/FaithFormation/The7CatholicSacraments.aspx |

From earliest times, deacons have had a special place in the pastoral work of the Church, preaching, ministering at baptisms and weddings, and caring for the poor and hungry on behalf of the whole Church. Nowadays, married men are more and more frequently ordained to the diaconate, where they have a strong role in assisting priests and bishops and serving the people.

However, too many white blood cells doesn't always that your body is simply working hard to fight a short-term infection; it is not always good news. A high white blood cell count (also called leukocytosis) isn't a specific disease but rather a sign that could indicate an underlying problem. This is why a high white blood cell count always requires further medical evaluation. A normal white blood cell count is between 4,500 and 10,000 cells per microliter, and more specifically: 5,000 to 10,000 for men and children
4,500 to 11,000 for women
In the absence of any disease, the white blood cells form just about 1% by volume of the total blood in the body. There are five different types of white blood cells and each serves a different function in the body. They are the neutrophils, band neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils and the basophils. [ 2] In a healthy person, the expected white blood cell ranges are, per micro liter of blood [ 3 ]: | http://www.steadyhealth.com/articles/what-does-high-white-blood-cells-count-indicate |

Severe physical or emotional stress [1]. High white blood cell counts are considered normal in certain situations: Pregnancy in the final month and labor may be associated with increased WBC levels. Spleen removal could lead to a persistent mild to moderate increased WBC count. Healthy newborns and infants a have higher WBC counts than adults. Too much smoking could also cause an increased WBC count. The WBC count tends to be lower in the morning and higher in the late afternoon and they are age-related. [ 5]
However, when the white blood cell counts continue to rise or fall to abnormal levels, it means that the condition is getting worse — scientists are still not certain if besides being a good indicator of a problem, high white blood cell counts could also trigger a serious disease if they naturally rise after an illness. An elevated white blood cell count always signifies your immune system is working harder than usual. This could happen simply because your body is preparing for pregnancy, or it could be your body’s response to a seasonal allergy, cold or flu, or even strenuous exercise and emotional stress. | http://www.steadyhealth.com/articles/what-does-high-white-blood-cells-count-indicate |

Content: But not as recently as the last 6 months or so. In the last week 2 different fingers "exploded" , it usually takes 3 or 4 days to completely heal. I work with cold produce and my hands are always cold and wet, and I've also got a problem with high blood pressure, most likely from smoking. I'm convinced that is what happening. The sensation is very inhibiting and itches in a way, but not very painful if you can somehow not use the finger. It happens to me when I grasp things, picking up boxs with the inside of my fingers, sometimes it swells up right away sometimes it takes a minute and turns purple. Sometimes only a small dot, and sometimes the whole side of my finger. Reply

Content: The two other times I went to the doctor and they thought maybe a spider bite, With the cold winter moving in maybe the spiders where coming in due to the cold. So they gave me meds. But the meds they gave me did not help. And now here I am the third year and once more the pain of it all. The only diffrance this year I live in Ca. not Co. So I guess it is not the spiders coming in due to the cold, it has been 76-80 here. So I am asking can anyone tell me what this is?

Content: Suddenly, characters
from shows became role models whom viewers could
learnfrom, and the actors behind the characters were seen in the same light. The
celebrities of the 1950s were very clean-cut and wholesome, seeing as society
wasn't very accepting of radicals. Even the controversial celebrities of the
1950s were supremely tame according to today's standards. For example, Elvis'
hip-thrusting was seen as tremendously risque, but in present society, it would
be mild in comparison to some of the hi-jinks pulled by today's celebrities. Images and actions portrayed both by the
media and celebrities influence and teach viewers, whether they are subliminal
or obvious. As America has become increasingly obsessed with celebrities over
the past few decades, celebrities have begun doing progressively more outrageous
things in order to gain attention. Today, celebrities are entering rehab left
and right, having emotional breakdowns captured by paparazzi, and getting
arrested for drinking and drugs. Americans have come to worship these
celebrities, wanting to be just like them. When these celebrities act immorally,
the severity of these actions is lessened and today's generation believes that
they are completely acceptable. Contemporary media, and the celebrities that
rule it, are responsible for teaching these negative morals and values, compared
to the wholesome principles projected and taught to the 1950s generation. | http://www.stevenjthompson.com/varioustopics/culturaldecline/values_morals_in_american_society_1950s_vs_today.html |

Content: Contemporary families need to
encourage the generation of today to embrace such valuable morals and to reject
the inferior behavior and ideology embraced by the corrupt celebrities. Fashion and style is heavily dictated by the media and celebrities; one could
even argue that they begin the trends more than the designers themselves. In the
1950s, an overall innocent image was projected by fashion. Long skirts with
nipped waists and collared shirts were in style while exposed midriff and
cleavage were eschewed. This taught the 1950s generation to dress with class and
sophistication, to accept their natural figures, and to respect their bodies
without exposing them; all morals superior to those taught by current fashion
trends. In contrast, contemporary celebrities can't seem to stop showing enough skin
until they're on the cover of Playboy. The conservative style of dressing of the
1950s has long been established as dorky and outdated while miniskirts and
low-cut tops have taken over the fashion world. This skimpy style of dressing
has caused low self-esteem to be rampant in today's society, a mindset further
instilled by the pressure to have the "perfect body". | http://www.stevenjthompson.com/varioustopics/culturaldecline/values_morals_in_american_society_1950s_vs_today.html |

The Definition of the Sacrament of Marriage or Holy Matrimony
For Catholics, the Sacrament of Marriage, or Holy Matrimony, is a public sign that one gives oneself totally to this other person. It is also a public statement about God: the loving union of husband and wife speaks of family values and also God's values. 337. What is the plan of God regarding man and woman? 1601-1605
God who is love and who created man and woman for love has called them to love. By creating man and woman he called them to an intimate communion of life and of love in marriage: “ So that they are no longer two, but one flesh” ( Matthew 19:6). God said to them in blessing “Be fruitful and multiply” ( Genesis 1:28). 338. | http://www.stgeorgeaj.com/matrimony |

Compendium of the Catechism of the Catholic Church
Content: 1609-1611
God helped his people above all through the teaching of the Law and the Prophets to deepen progressively their understanding of the unity and indissolubility of marriage. The nuptial covenant of God with Israel prepared for and prefigured the new covenant established by Jesus Christ the Son of God, with his spouse, the Church. 341. What new element did Christ give to Matrimony? 1612-1617, 1661
Christ not only restored the original order of matrimony but raised it to the dignity of a sacrament, giving spouses a special grace to live out their marriage as a symbol of Christ’s love for his bride the Church: “ Husbands, love your wives as Christ loves the Church” ( Ephesians 5:25). 342. Are all obliged to get married? 1618-1620
Matrimony is not an obligation for everyone, especially since God calls some men and women to follow the Lord Jesus in a life of virginity or of celibacy for the sake of the Kingdom of Heaven. These renounce the great good of Matrimony to concentrate on the things of the Lord and seek to please him. | http://www.stgeorgeaj.com/matrimony |

Sacraments of Service
The sacraments of service – Matrimony (or “Marriage”) and Holy Orders – are both calls from Our Lord to share our lives with others in special ways. Marriage: The commitment made by a couple, through the Sacrament of Matrimony, is a sign of God’s love and faithfulness. The Christian community shares their joy as they prepare to enter a new life together in the holy Sacrament of Marriage. A sacramental Marriage celebrated in the Catholic Church acknowledges the importance of God in the lives of both husband and wife. Members of our Wedding Ministry [Angel Couples] meet with couples before their wedding to help in the planning of the ceremony. They preside over the rehearsals and walk the couples through the ceremony. They attend the weddings and help the clergy and the couples to ensure a memorable experience. Arrangements must be made six months in advance. | http://www.stlouisedm.org/worship/sacraments/sacraments-of-service/ |

Grade two sprains may need to be immobilized with a wrist brace, splint or cast for a few weeks. This immobilization may cause some stiffness in the wrist; therefore, stretching exercises may be used to help regain full mobility and function. Grade three sprains may require surgery to repair the completely torn ligament, reconnecting the ligament to the bone. Surgery is followed by a period of rehabilitation and exercises to strengthen the wrist and restore motion and function. Generally, the ligament can be expected to heal in six to eight weeks. Depending on the severity of the sprain, rehabilitation with full recovery of motion and strength can take several months. | http://www.stltoday.com/sports/high-school/sports-health/wrist-sprains-how-serious-are-wrist-sprains/article_d89ff76e-4c25-11e0-bc9d-00127992bc8b.html |

It's difficult to prevent wrist sprains, but there are some measures to consider. For instance, when doing daily activities, be careful walking in wet, icy or slippery conditions to avoid a major fall. When playing sports such as skating, skateboarding, and skiing, wear wrist guard splints or protective tape to support the wrist in case of a fall. 0 comments

Content: Therefore, the manager may have to buy large quantities of stock when he would prefer to be selling. In other words, the behavior of individual investors (investing when stocks are high and selling when they are low) has a significant negative impact on the performance of fund managers who could do a much better job if investors would simply stay put instead of trying to “time the market.” Timing the market is an activity for which most investors are poorly equipped. The managers are being forced to behave like the amateurs who invest in their funds. Managers therefore admonish investors to hold for the long-term. They repeat it in every TV interview and in every financial publication where they are quoted: “ do not be a trader, hold for the long term; that is the only way to invest wisely.” Managers are simply saying, “stay put and let us do our job.” The fund managers are right. | http://www.stockdisciplines.com/short-long-term |

Content: Chinese net purchases of Japanese debt have increased to 1.7 trillion Yen in the first six months of 2010, up from 255 billion Yen in the whole of 2005. Other investors are seeking a temporary parking place for their money when they sell their other assets. With the poor performance of stock markets around the world, the very low interest rate on U.S. treasury and the strengthening trend in Yen, Yen money market instruments could look very attractive. There could also be a perception among market players that the U.S. Federal Reserve may be more willing to conduct aggressive monetary easing than the Bank of Japan. The expectation that more new U.S. Dollars will be printed than that there will be new Yen printed, will strengthen the Yen. This perception was further strengthened last week when the U.S. Federal Reserve in a statement indicated that it might embark on more quantitative easing, increasing the amount of money in circulation in an attempt to help the economy pick up. The expectation for the differences in interest rate in Japan and the U.S. will also have its influence on the exchange rate. The Japanese interest rates have always been the lowest. But when the expectation is that this difference is will become less big (e.g. dropping U.S. treasury rates) or when the U.S. is not expected to increase interest rates for the foreseeable future, the carry trade will slow down or unwind, strengthening the Yen further. The same thing will happen when investments outside Japan are expected to become more risky or providing lower returns. | http://www.stocktrendinvesting.com/blog/why-japanese-yen-so-strong |

FAQ Category: Adult's Behaviors
Sex offender treatment is different than other therapies for adults. Treatment for people who have committed sexual offenses is a serious and encouraging process which focuses on learning specialized strategies for stopping abusive behavior, being accountable and taking responsibility for harm done. For the vast majority of those adults and juveniles who have committed a sexual offense, treatment significantly reduces the future risk of sexually abusing a child. Treatment does not offer amnesty or excuse abusive acts, nor is it intended to punish or humiliate participants. A central focus of treatment is to help an individual create a better life for him/herself by developing their strengths while managing risk. Specialized treatment is offered by therapists who specialize in working with adults and youth with sexual behavior problems. Answers to 10 Frequently Asked Questions

Content: Typically the approaches to treatment for adolescents and younger children differ from those used with adults. Often treatment providers or specialized therapists will first do an individual evaluation to help determine the usefulness of treatment and the most effective approaches to use. This is a time when you can also ask questions. 5. What happens in treatment for sexual behavior problems? Programs are often in community-based mental health programs or agencies and generally require sessions on a weekly basis in a group setting and are facilitated by a trained professional. In treatment you will learn strategies, develop skills and get peer and professional support to manage thoughts, feelings and behaviors that are potentially harmful. There are often ground rules and agreements that all participants must follow in order to remain a member of the group. Many people are court ordered to sexual offender treatment but others may choose to go on their own. Treatment plans may include group/individual therapy, couples therapy, family therapy, polygraph (lie detector test), specialized testing and/or prescribed medications. | http://www.stopitnow.org/help-guidance/faqs/faqs-on-sex-offender-treatment |

Why Business Ethics Are Important For a Company and Its Success
By: Marthavasquez
Business ethics is an interesting branch of business theory, primarily because of the fact that they are inherently interesting in a market economy. People tend to be extremely distrustful of corporations in market economies and the bigger they are, the worse that problem of trust usually gets. Business ethics therefore are politically charged in many different circumstances and that in turn serves to make them interesting. Aside from this academic interest however, are also important for a company and its success. Here are some ways in which this is true. Public Image
It is impossible to discuss business ethics as a branch of academia without taking a look at the relationship between business ethics and public image. Each corporation has a particular public image, which represents the way in which the public views the corporation. Wal-Mart, for example, has a terrible public image. Toyota, on the other hand, has a very positive one. | http://www.streetdirectory.com/travel_guide/161760/corporate_matters/why_business_ethics_are_important_for_a_company_and_its_success.html |

Why Business Ethics Are Important For a Company and Its Success
Content: Investment
Another reason that business ethics are important is the relationship they have to investment. When a person or an entity is considering investment in a particular stock, there are a number of things they take into account. Aside from the quantitative factors surrounding a company's profit margin a future prospects, consideration is also given to a particular company from the point of view of the qualitative aspects such as their public image and the products that they happen to sell. All of these things are taken into account before the final investment is made. Therefore, a company that would like to encourage extra is a company that has a strong sense of business ethics. Part of business ethics is responsibility to the investor and for that reason companies with strong reputations in the field of ethical business behavior are also companies that tend to attract more investment from people that are new into the market. Investment is most definitely important to success. Partnerships
In the business world, joint ventures happen all the time. They happen all the time because they are ultimately of great importance to the bottom lines of businesses. A business can be made or broken on just one joint venture and part of the reason that joint ventures are successful is that they combine the forces of two extremely powerful companies on occasion. | http://www.streetdirectory.com/travel_guide/161760/corporate_matters/why_business_ethics_are_important_for_a_company_and_its_success.html |

A woman has the right to decide what happens with her body. A fetus is not a human life, so it does not have separate individual rights. The government should provide taxpayer funded abortions for women who cannot afford them. The decision to have an abortion is a personal choice of a woman regarding her own body and the government must protect this right. Women have the right to affordable, safe and legal abortions, including partial birth abortion. Conservative
Human life begins at conception. Abortion is the murder of a human being. An unborn baby, as a living human being, has separate rights from those of the mother. | http://www.studentnewsdaily.com/conservative-vs-liberal-beliefs/ |

The Second Amendment does not give citizens the right to keep and bear arms, but only allows for the state to keep a militia (National Guard). Individuals do not need guns for protection; it is the role of local and federal government to protect the people through law enforcement agencies and the military. Additional gun control laws are necessary to stop gun violence and limit the ability of criminals to obtain guns. More guns mean more violence. Conservative

The report will respond to one simple, yet rather complex, question: What impact has social media had on news organizations? A question like this cannot be answered straightforward but must instead be explored. While the report will focus on what has already occurred, it will also look to the future and will consider whether public opinions of the mainstream media have helped spawn and accelerate the birth of the social media revolution. Results will lead the report to offer three areas within journalism that social media has significantly touched: the public’s trust of the news media in relation to social media; the relationship between local news organizations and social media; and how news is and will be covered using social media tools. | http://www.studentpulse.com/articles/202/the-social-media-revolution-exploring-the-impact-on-journalism-and-news-media-organizations |

Content: Understanding where traditional news organizations currently stand requires one to understand how audiences consume their news and what they think about the news business as it stands. Surveys by news organizations and foundations offer a way to understand the public’s thoughts quantitatively. The Pew Research Center for the People and the Press conducted a survey in which it found, overall, respondents have less confidence that news organizations strive to report accurate, politically unbiased news than they had a few decades ago. In fact, the public’s confidence has reached its lowest level in more than two decades (“Public” 2). Despite this, the Pew survey showed most respondents still think watchdog journalism is critically important (“Public” 10-11). The poll also monitored consumers’ most-used news medium, finding audiences tend to obtain national and international news from TV and the Internet (“Public” 4). However, this and a survey study conducted by the National News Association (NNA) found the opposite seems to be true for local newspapers, especially weeklies (“Annual”). The NNA’s survey found the majority of respondents spend at least 40 minutes a week reading their local newspaper and often prefer the print over the online edition (“Annual”). A MediaPost article discussed a survey that found males tend to be more open to new media than females, and, to little surprise, the 18-to-34-year-old age group has seen the largest decline in traditional media usage (Loechner 1). This survey also found while most people said newspapers needed to change to remain relevant, users wouldn’t be willing to pay to read print magazines online (Loechner 1-2). | http://www.studentpulse.com/articles/202/the-social-media-revolution-exploring-the-impact-on-journalism-and-news-media-organizations |

Before being able to define the relationship between social media and journalism, it’s vital to explain journalism’s purpose and troubles within the media industry as a whole. In a letter in the American Journalism Review, Kevin Klose wrote journalism in its purest form is about witnessing an event and recording them for others to see and read (Klose 2). Similarly, in another American Journalism Review article, Pamela J. Podger says journalism is about listening to those who have something to say (Podger 36). In his blog post titled “Social Journalism: Past, Present and Future,” Woody Lewis offers similar sentiments regarding what a “social journalist” is. | http://www.studentpulse.com/articles/202/the-social-media-revolution-exploring-the-impact-on-journalism-and-news-media-organizations |

In a book titled “Groundswell: Winning in a World Transformed by Social Technologies,” Charlene Li and Josh Bernoff argue social media has empowered individuals and has forced the idea of “news media” to morph whether or not the industry has desired this change (Li 5). In his book “Twitter Power,” Joel Comm argues a similar case, stating social media allows anyone to publish ideas at a relatively non-existent price (Comm 1). Despite its positives, some have found problems with journalists in the social media world. In articles written for the fall 2009 edition of Nieman Reports, Michael Skoler discusses the media’s flawed business model and how social media could help, while Geneva Overholser argues journalists need to talk more about social media (Skoler; | http://www.studentpulse.com/articles/202/the-social-media-revolution-exploring-the-impact-on-journalism-and-news-media-organizations |

Content: Many programs do not require a bachelor's degree for entrance, but all require a significant number of credit hours—ranging from 45 to 90 semester hours—at the undergraduate level. However, most of the students admitted have completed an undergraduate program and earned a bachelor's degree. Applicants without a degree face a difficult task in gaining admittance. Preveterinary courses should emphasize the sciences. Veterinary medical colleges typically require applicants to have taken classes in organic and inorganic chemistry, physics, biochemistry, general biology, animal biology, animal nutrition, genetics, vertebrate embryology, cellular biology, microbiology, zoology, and systemic physiology. Some programs require calculus; some require only statistics, college algebra and trigonometry, or pre-calculus. Most veterinary medical colleges also require some courses in English or literature, other humanities, and the social sciences. Increasingly, courses in general business management and career development have become a standard part of the curriculum to teach new graduates how to effectively run a practice. In addition to satisfying preveterinary course requirements, applicants must submit test scores from the Graduate Record Examination (GRE), the Veterinary College Admission Test (VCAT), or the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT), depending on the preference of the college to which they are applying. | http://www.studentscholarships.org/salary/478/veterinarians.php |

High Schools in Australia
School education in Australia includes preschool, preparatory (or kindergarten), primary school, secondary school (or high school) and senior secondary school (or college). Schooling lasts for 13 years, from preparatory to senior secondary. School is compulsory until at least the age of 16. Types of schools include government schools, non-government schools (including faith-based schools such as Catholic or Islamic schools) and schools based on educational philosophies such as Montessori and Steiner. All schools must be registered with the state or territory education department and are subject to government requirements in terms of infrastructure and teacher registration. Australian schools do more than just educate students. They prepare them for life − developing communication skills, self-discipline and respect for themselves, their peers and their world. Schools offer a broad curriculum in the key learning areas – English, mathematics, studies of society and the environment, science, arts, Languages Other Than English (LOTE), technology, health and physical education. They also believe strongly in the benefits of a rounded education – including the teamwork, self-expression and personal development that happen outside the classroom. In Australia, students will enjoy a diverse learning environment that is as personally enriching as it is educational, and develop the skills and qualities needed in a changing world. | http://www.studyaustralia.eu/study/highschools |

A variety of teaching methods are used, including: teacher-directed learning, student research, group projects and presentations, visual presentations, e-learning and interactive classrooms. A variety of assessment methods are used to assess student outcomes. These may include individual research projects, group assignments, oral and visual presentations, the use of technology including PowerPoint, podcast or vodcast presentations, as well as the more traditional class tests and assignments. National and state testing programs ensure standards are met and maintained. | http://www.studyaustralia.eu/study/highschools |

Content: School education is 13 years and divided into: Primary School
Children attend primary school from approximately the age of 5 to 11 years. Classes are usually comprised of boys and girls together, sometimes less so in private schools, and pupils usually remain in the same class for all their lessons. A full range of subjects is normally taught by a single teacher. Secondary School
From the age of about 12 to about 16-17, pupils attend secondary school. Some schools divide into "junior" and "senior" schools in recognition of the different roles they play in the overall education system. In Australia, schooling is compulsory up until Year 10 (approximately age 15-16). Students leaving school at this level usually go into apprenticeships or begin training for a trade. Years 11 and 12, the final two years of secondary school in Australia, are designed to prepare students for higher level entry into training programs or to enter university. Most international students coming to Australia for secondary education, do so for Years 11 and 12, normally with the intention of furthering their study at an Australian tertiary institution. | http://www.studyaustralia.eu/study/highschools |

On successful completion of Year 12, students are issued with a Senior Secondary Education Certificate. In Australia each State gives this award a different name, but they all denote the same level of education and are mutually recognized by each different State. Some schools also offer international award programs such s the International Baccalaureate (IB) as an alternative to the Year 12 school-leaver certificate. In the Australian school system, there are two types of schools. Both types of school must meet the Australian Government standards. | http://www.studyaustralia.eu/study/highschools |

Content: Government schools (public)
These schools are under the authority of the State Department of Education and are regulated by a centralised Government body. Governments offer a strong platform of education without a religious denomination behind it, but will include a similar curriculum as an independent school. Most Government schools are co-educational (both boys and girls). Only a few schools are single sex (only boys or only girls). Independent schools (private)
An independent school operates separately from Government administration – while in accordance with Government standards and regulations – as their curriculum is often supported by a religious denomination. Funding comes primarily from the schools administration, and the school is controlled by a school board. Independent schools may also offer the International Baccalaureate (IB) along with the Senior Secondary Certificate of Education. Independent schools may be co-educational (boys and girls) or single sex (only boys or only girls). Accommodation options
International students at Government schools are likely to live in homestay arrangements. Homestay means staying with a local Australian family for a fee. | http://www.studyaustralia.eu/study/highschools |
