Life at Lincoln Academy
My first days here seem completely different from the ones I've been used to at home. I'm not sure if it's because of the people here or if it's because of the fact that I acknowledged the fact that I have to integrate in this new environment. Everything seems like a challenge and lectures are helping me enjoy my time here even more. In the beginning things seemed strange, if not hostile. The fact that I had left my comfort zone contributed to this feeling and influenced me to attempt to create links between this new environment and the one that I had been used to.
My nature as a person enthusiastic about seeing new places and people encouraged me to try to get involved as much as possible and to find individuals and ideas that were similar to mine or that made me want to learn more.

As time passes I've noticed I become more used to daily events at the Academy. Some of these have almost become routine, as it feels natural to attend classes and to interact with topics that I previously had a limited understanding of. In a way I am intrigued with the way that I've developed in a relatively short time period. I now feel more in control of my actions and I have the impression I have a clearer goal in front of me.

This is a realistic dream for many, as there is an established education system that gives students a choice of career paths and training. The modern world if full of universities and training centers. However, the world was not always like this. Many centuries ago, education was limited to the privileged and even the privileged
It is now recognized that individuals learn in different ways -- they perceive and process information in various ways. The learning styles theory suggests that the way that children acquire information has more to do with whether the educational experience is slanted toward their specific style of learning than their intelligence. The foundation of the learning styles methodology is based in the classification of psychological types. The research demonstrates that,
Transitions occur in many different educational, societal, and familial situations. Among the more common situations where problems of adjustment might be encountered are changing from one school to another, a change in grades, the shift to regular participation in afterschool programs and childcare, and going from school (non- special education) into the workplace. (Taylor & Adelman, 2003, p. 122) Various programs have been devised, and services provided, that meet each
There are others though that believes that learners are born with certain innate capabilities that are then shaped and formed from the outside (Montessori theory, 2011) No matter which theory one looks at though the bottom line is that each philosophy is based on the idea that everything possible should be done to encourage as much learning as possible. All philosophies are based on the fact that education should be

At this stage also, a questionnaire or instrument is formulated and kinds of analysis to be conducted after data collection are determined. These rigorous steps of developing the methodology for a research are culminated with the conduct of the data collection itself, which, in the example given earlier, the research collected data through the survey method. After collection, processing of the data would be next, followed by the analyses and
