Essays on Primary School

Description of the Challenge

I have witnessed cases where teachers face significant challenges in managing the behavior of primary school children. Teaching a large class of pupils with different abilities can cause a lot of irritation to teachers. I have seen the behavior of some kids disrupting the normal operations of classrooms or the entire school. Thus, a child may exhibit behavior that may make it difficult for the teachers to provide education for that particular pupil or their peers. Teachers are experiencing even greater behavioral issues that are associated with children with disability and those who have different social norms from that ...

The oil boom in Kuwait in the 1950s marked the biggest economic and social changes in the country. The opulence that the oil brought changed the way people lived their lives, from an economy which relied mainly on pearling, to a more comfortable and sedentary urban lifestyle.

Al Mubarakiyya was the first modern educational institution in the country. Established in 1912, it was supported by the merchants primarily to have people working for them, ...

It is widely acknowledged that the educational process is very important for community improvement.

The family is the first environment the child is born and develops in. It is the place where a person establishes his psychological, social, physical, mental, and behavioral character.

When any student begins their educational journey, together with their parents and caregivers, it is often an assumption that everything will work out well. The belief tends to be that the child will learn and understand all the concepts beginning from the most basic tasks, such as learning to write alphabetic letters, to the more complex tasks, such as solving challenging algebraic equations. However, this is not always the case, as some children, not only when they are young but also as they grow older, face many challenges that affect their learning.

Introduction

The achievement gap in formal schooling between African American children and other groups is stark. This has proven consistent over time (Coleman, et al, 1966), across jurisdictions (Clotfelter, Ladd & Vigdor, 2009; Bailey & Dziko, 2008), and throughout the K-12 system (The National Center for Education Statistics, 2014). Improving these issues is an obvious direction forward. Yet, the obstacles are numerous and multifaceted (Sanacore, 2004). Relative to the public domain, the school system is often targeted for a lack of understanding in relation to educating young African Americans of low socio-economic status. The curriculum is long been criticized for being de-contextualized to ...

My intended major is mathematical economics. As a child, it was intriguing to see that some successful people made predictions about potential risks in the economy, and the predictions came true. This sparked my interest in mathematics and economics. I came to learn that Mathematics plays a significant role in economics; a role that has been increasing in importance as the years go by. Consequently, I have come to appreciate the fact that Mathematics is progressively important in regard to the expression as well as communication of concepts in economics. Today, activity in financial markets is generally governed by mathematical models. My ...

Introduction

The world is much smaller than it used to be in many different ways. Comparative education is a process that looks at the different educational traditions in one country or culture and then compares those traditions to the educational traditions in other cultures—this is a way of developing educational theory, and a method for utilising the vast amounts of data now available to glean new insights (Bignold and Gayton, 2009). These processes look at the many issues associated with education and try to draw parallels and examine differences between different cultures and the educational experiences offered by each culture (Bignold and ...

Introduction

According to Burns (99), learning is comparatively permanent change in behavior, whereby behavior is the observable activity as well as internal processes such as attitudes, thinking and emotions. Burns holds that learning may not show itself in observable behavior immediately the educational program has happened. Learning occurs in different settings such as at home, during play, at work or more commonly, at school. In formal settings, learning takes place in a classroom, library or laboratory. Teachers facilitate learning on different levels. On the other hand, apprenticeship is a combination of training on the job and related classroom instruction through the supervision ...

Application of Visual Art Standards and Obstacles Facing Visual Arts Teachers in Independent Schools

Much of the research available on the topic of changing standards in education is clear on one point: people do not like to change. As a result, teachers—who are, of course, people—also dislike changing the ways that they teach in the classroom. As the researchers investigated further the literature on teacher change, the sentiment that was found to be expressed repeatedly is the sentiment that teachers do not change; that change hurts and that is why people do not change, and that teachers are recalcitrant (e.g., Duffy & Roehler, 1986; Fullan, 1991). The literature suggests that teachers resist doing ...

There are many things that go into the consideration of a lesson plan, but perhaps the most important thing is encouraging young students to be both creative and risk-taking with language. Students who are happy to memorize but unwilling to speak in English are not the students who develop the most effective communication skills; perhaps the most important thing in the course of teaching these students is encouraging this creativity in them. Students who are afraid or too embarrassed to speak in class must be treated carefully and encouraged to speak up; this will give them a confidence boost that is ...

“Careful dear,” my mother lovingly caressed my hair as I bumped into her while frantically running upstairs on my way to the roof top. I would be nine years old tomorrow and she still treats me as if I am a three. I didn’t in the least like her gestures of love. ”Why can’t she just keep her hands off me? Why on earth she has to make a show of it every damn time I am near her? Just the thought of her touching me makes me puke,” angrily I mused as I continued to run upstairs. I ...

Most educational institutions offer complementary sex education classes to students, which are usually those in the secondary and tertiary school levels.
