Public Education Campaign
Designing a Public Education Campaign
Public education anti-terrorist campaign concerning new hazards
Unlike a hurricane or a tornado, the aftereffects of a terrorist event can be very difficult to predict. The methods of terrorists are always changing, as they constantly strive to outwit law enforcement officials, inspire fear, and generate destruction. Almost every recent terrorist action has been unique in its impact and approach. While it is advisable that all members of the public have a contingency plan for disasters, such designating a place for family or friends to meet; having working flashlights on hand in the event of a power outage, and having stores of canned food and water, there is no guarantee that such methods can protect against all possible repercussions.
During incidents such as the World Trade Towers bombing, a number of unplanned circumstances were generated by the fallout. The health consequences for workers at Ground Zero, who…...

public education spending have argued that the significant public expenditures for public education are a waste of taxpayer's money. These critics claim that massive reductions in education expenditures could help reduce the average tax burden. This reduction in the amount of tax paid by individuals and corporations would improve the national economy in the long-term.
This argument is fundamentally and critically flawed. As such, this paper will provide rebuttal to the argument that significant public expenditures for public education are a waste of taxpayer's money.
Certainly, one of the main reasons that the argument against expenditures on public education is flawed is that it fails to consider education as an investment, rather than just an expense. Education benefits both the individual, and society as a whole, in the long-term. I argue that these long-term individual and societal benefits of education far outweigh both the individual and societal costs of education.

society that the public may claim a greater intellectual stake in than public education. Not only is the process of educating the next generation (at least in public schools) undertaken at the expense of most residents, but it also concerns us in a cultural way as well - we will all have to live in the world that these children will inhabit and help to shape, regardless of whether we ourselves are parents.
And yet, despite the legitimacy of the claim that members of the general public may make to their own engagement in the process of public education, relatively few people who are not themselves parents of public-school children do become deeply involved (and relatively few of these). This does not mean, of course, that people do not have strongly held opinions about matters of educational policy.

It is a fundamental principle of good democracy that those in power should be open to criticism and this is only possible if the education system provides the necessary skills and training in investigative thinking and inquiry. This aspect is also important in terms of the growth and development of the individual. ithout an inquiring mind the individual is not able to fully explore the world around him or herself and to expand personal horizons.
A third related aspect of public education is that it should provide the necessary content and material that can facilitate the democratic process. Public educationists should prepare their students for dealing with real - world scenarios and activities. This enables the individual to play a proper part in the democratic process. By this is meant that subjects such as history and political culture should be offered in public schools in order to provide the background…...
This is also critical for a democracy to survive as the concept of representation is an abstract one; providing students with the ability to understand democracies begins with the accomplishment of these goals. Finally, educating students on the tasks involved in creating their own frameworks for comparing concepts and appreciating the role of democracy in their lives also points to the need for showing how ethnocentrism and stereotypes detract from the ideal of democracy. The ability to educate students in how to have an analytical approach to understanding democracy further distances them from the ignorance that perpetuates stereotypes and fosters ethnocentrism.
A third and extremely important aspect of providing public education in a democracy is the ethical responsibility of providing every student with the opportunity to discover both through education and trial-and-error, what their true strengths are. The ability for every student to find their unique talents and what they…...

Diversity is another very serious issue within public schools today, and it can be either racial or economic. Often it is both combined, as many of the lower income individuals and those that are struggling in this country are also usually of minority races. This is, of course, not always true, but it seems to be a generalization that proves to be true in many cases. Regardless of this, however, any students that are struggling with either economic or racial differences from their classmates can have a difficult time in school. Teachers should pay attention to their students and what they need. While it is possible to give too much attention to a student there is nothing wrong with making sure that all students know the teacher is available to talk with them should the need arise. Sometimes just knowing that there is someone they can talk to will be…...
public education been used in the areas of focus to achieve health goals other than eradicating Malaria? If so, how successful have such attempts been?
I find it interesting that the World Health Organization suggested the use of DDT, a chemical that has proven harmful after research. This makes me wonder whether the WHO has suggested other potentially harmful "remedies" for health concerns without launching a thorough investigation into potential harms first.
In my view, it appears vitally important to first launch investigations into the potential harm of a chemical or remedy before applying it on a worldwide or countrywide scale, as the WHO appears to have suggested with DDT. Surely the research proves that such a strategy is irresponsible at best.
Second Response:
How would you go about reducing bias in investigating the leader-follower relationship in companies?
It is interesting that so little literature focuses on the follower role in the leader-follower relationships,…...
Rise of Public Education in Arkansas
How public education started in Arkansas
Arkansas saw vehement opposition to the education that was considered most essential in view of the political and economic factors. A group consisting of only a few campaigned for education. The supportive factors in favor of education got weaker during the period of 1819 to 1860. The cultivator class normally wanted education of their children in their residences. The costs of private instructors were very high and due to shortage of instructors it was not possible to provide sufficient teachers to the private institutions as per the demand. Supposedly, Caleb Lindsey evidently was teaching in a school running in Lawrence County cave. The payment to teachers was being determined by the ability and performance of the teachers. The tutors were residing in the hired accommodations in towns or in log cabins in the rural areas. Some of the teachers had…...
The US government has reduced its state funding for the higher educational institutes to lower the college costs, especially for ethnic groups since the increase in educational costs have made it harder for color and lower-income student to enroll in these colleges. There are numerous benefits for enrolling in the best educational institutions after the students are graduated that mainly includes higher incomes. Still, it puts pressure on those students whose households are earning low. With such stagnant earnings, it is greatly difficult for racially and economically diverse students to have affordability and access to the highly-priced educational institutes. Recently, the costs for attending a public college have surged up to $21,370 as compared to $8,250 in 1980, which means it is an approximately 30 percent rise in the public education costs (Hess “The Cost of College Increased”).
The three causes for the rise in the cost of public education in…...
Professional Supervision
Your belief about public education/professional training in general
Public education is always mired in one or the other controversy and ongoing reforms is always the order of the day. From the basics of the nineteenth century, education has come a very long way. The basis of development of education models are seen to be contemporaneous in Britain and USA and most of the commonwealth. At the same time unique innovations are underway in the U.S.A. In the modern context it is indeed important to consider many aspects of global values, and the reforms that were made in public schools become relevant in the modern context which shares a similarity on a global scale. The problems of rampant illiteracy are the cause of unrest in cities and the earlier educationists believed that these problems of the cities can be overcome with increasing the number of educated youth. (Cuban, 2003)
One of the…...

Importance of Increased Percentage GDP Allocation on Education
Public education has increasingly become necessary for all communities across the globe. Different governments in the world have increased their budgetary allocations on public education. Although the private sector has equally invested in schools and colleges, it has not entirely taken over the role of government in the provision of free or affordable education. The American government allocates about 5% of its GDP on education (Borman & Hewes, 2012). Similarly, most other government has allocated a significantly lower fraction of their GDP on education. The low percentage of allocation to public education threatens the numerous benefits that communities are likely to obtain through affordable education. The following study identifies the benefits that society stands to gain by making education accessible to many people and how an increase in the GDP allocation will enhance access to education. Therefore, an increase in the current GDP…...

Equal Protection and Public Education EssayEqual protection in public education occurs simultaneously with the protection of peoples civil rights, including the students; thus, it is applied in the assignment of students to specific schools for racial balance (Obergefell v. Hodges, 2015). The main objective of equal rights protection is to ensure that students and teachers have access to schools across and are protected against any form of discrimination. Since the equal protection clause states that no person should be denied access to schools across districts, even when they come from economically disenfranchised communities. Black students from disenfranchised backgrounds are less likely to be enrolled in rigorous science and math classes and have a higher likelihood of being suspended from school than their white peers.Classification to Assign Students to Specific Schools for acial BalanceEqual protection in public education was initiated to eliminate racial segregation in public schools that disadvantaged children from…...
