Campus Violence on K-12 Setting
To Whom it May Concern,
I am planning to research the effects of offering a martial arts program regiment within the school on school violence among elementary, middle, and high school students. Search of ERIC databases has generated little prior research on this topic. Many studies have shown that martial arts have many beneficial effects on the emotional and physical well-being of those who participate in martial arts classes and studies. Other studies have linked school violence to a number of sources, including low self-esteem of those who experience violent outbursts, the stress caused by the school environment, the physical inactivity levels of a student sitting in class daily, and the often abusive and humiliating nature of the physical education programs that are traditionally offered in school, among many other factors. Additionally, many bullies chose to pick on those who have little or no self-defense skills and are unable to prevent the violent event from occurring.
The martial arts have been shown to not only improve self-esteem and physical overall well-being, but they also provide even a smaller student with the capability to overthrow an attacker, which may...
Finally, the martial arts teach control of mind and body to students, and the sheer lack of control involved in most violent activity on campus is a significant factor. Simply studying the behavior of children who participate in martial arts outside of the school, or by studying the violent behavior of those who are lacking in martial arts training, will not conclusively prove a link between martial arts training and a lower violence level. While correlational research in existing materials might be able to indicate that a link could theoretically exist between lower rates of youth violence and martial arts training, there is no way that merely reviewing the existing literature to provide truly convincing evidence that this link is causal rather than incidental. In order to prove a causal link between rates of violence and martial arts training, it would be necessary to undertake experimental research.
Experimental research and design must be focused on providing positive martial arts training as part of the regular school environment in the experimental groups, and then monitoring the effect which this has on violence levels and other indicators of social…
Campus Violence for K-12 Setting and accurate before referencing the material. What measurable outcome do you choose to explain? In other words, what is the dependent variable that you will study? The number of students in the K-12 setting that have experienced campus violence first-hand from other students to the severity of requiring some form of medical attention is the dependent variable I will study. How would you measure the outcome? The school nurse
Campus Violence for K-12 Setting What measurable outcome do you choose to explain? I wish to explain the effect that having martial arts-based classes offered as a regular regiment for students would have on the total number of violent incidents, as well as what the severity of this violence is, occurring on campus among students. How would you measure the outcome? School nurses, administrators, and teachers would all be asked to keep record of
Given that people engage in sporting events for a wide range of reasons, the authors assert that it is time for athletes to develop a moral code that embraces higher standards of conduct that will help reverse these recent trends and once again provide American sports with a sense of fair play and respect.

Issues Facing K-12 Leadership in Urban School Settings What are the issues facing urban education in the K-12 environment and beyond? And to what extent is crime a hot topic among urban educators? Some have attributed the complicated issues facing urban education including crime and poverty to school boards and administrations, but the larger issue seems to be funding and support from diverse institutions (Wilson, 1994). The need for high quality and
Distance learning content providers and course designers need to develop new modes of delivery. Educators need new models of teaching to create meaningful distance learning scenarios. The delivery of the material is the key to creating quality content, one based on an emancipatory pedagogy. Who is in control of content remains the most basic problem of education. Gibson claims that education is a for-profit endeavor. Run like businesses, institutions of
