Goal-setting in a Standards-Based Educational Era

Goal-setting in a Standards-Based Educational Era Goal-setting in a Standards-Based Educational Era Parents, you already know the importance of teaching your child to set goals and work toward them throughout his or her education. However, with the recent implementation of the Common Core State Standards, which not all states are using, the time is right to teach your child to set goals that are not only achievable and measurable, but also tied to school standards. Here are a few tips for developing goals with your student: For older students, use a class syllabus to set specific class goals. Encourage high school students to set goals by class, using a class syllabus or other guide to identify the things toward which he or she should work. For example, a student might look ahead to all test and project dates in his or her history class and set a goal to develop a detailed study calendar/plan and avoid procrastinating. Keep big picture goals in mind. No matter how old your student is, it can be helpful for him or her to keep an eye on the prize. For a high school student, earning scholarship money or getting into a particular competitive college might serve as a good long-term goal. For a younger student who loves reading and writing, a goal might be to enter a writing contest or write a story or book. Target weaknesses. Using past report cards and/or teacher feedback, encourage your child to focus his or her efforts on improving areas where he or she is struggling or not consistently meeting expectations. Be sure to look at your states most up-to-date academic standards and the report card/progress report rubric that details expected progress toward skill mastery. Your childs teacher can help you lay out a plan to help your child improve in specific areas. Build upon strengths. While it is important to take note of areas of weakness, it is also important to help students recognize their strengths. Perhaps your child is weaker in math but enjoys and excels at reading. Be sure to incorporate this strength into his or her academic goals. You can build your childs self-esteem by providing him or her opportunities to experience success. Goal-setting can be a highly effective process, and while setting less specific goalssuch as improving in a subject or having a better attitude about schoolis worthwhile, there is great value in identifying specific, tangible academic goals for your child to work on. Spend time at report card time (or more often) going through this exercise and revisit goals frequently throughout the school year.

6 Takeaways From The First Presidential Debate

6 Takeaways From The First Presidential Debate By Donald Trump August 19, 2015 (cropped).jpg: BU Rob13 Hillary Clinton by Gage Skidmore 2.jpg: Gage [GFDL (http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html) or CC BY-SA 4.0 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0)], via Wikimedia CommonsClinton and Trump offered substantiative responses Actual substance was, arguably, lacking for much of the debate. But it was not entirely without real, concrete ideas. When asked about relations between law enforcement and people of color, Clinton took a strong stance on gun control and advocated for rebuilding trust between communities and retraining police officers. When defending his plan to cut taxes for the wealthy and businesses, Trump argued that unemployment would decrease and federal revenue increase if that wealth was freed up. Each candidate had at least a few moments in which they offered clear, substantiative responses instead of the petty squabbling many had anticipated. Clintons lines were over-scripted Both candidates illustrated the essential nature of debate preparation. Yet sometimes Clinton came off as  too  prepared, insofar as she struggled to work in obviously scripted lines. At one point Clinton criticized Trumps belief in trickle down economics by calling his policies Trumped up, trickle down economics. It drew praise from supporters, but along with several other lines, it may have alienated undecided voters. Some pundits have accused Clinton of being robotic, with a tendency to regurgitate the facts and one-liners shes already rehearsed. Squeezing in well-worded, but clearly scripted, ripostes did nothing to fight that belief. Trump struggled with honesty   Fact-checkers called out both candidates for false or misleading statements, but most fact-checking sites found far more faults in Trumps remarks. At one point in the debate, moderator Lester Holt brought up Trumps support for the Iraq war in 2002. Trump ardently denied that he had ever supported the war, calling Holt wrong, wrong, wrong. PolitiFact, a Pulitzer Prize-winning fact-checking website,  called Trumps claim a myth and rated it false  based on an interview with Howard Stern before the invasion in which hed expressed support for the war. Later, Clinton brought up a tweet from 2012 in which Trump said that climate change was a hoax devised by the Chinese to hurt American manufacturers. Trump denied that he had ever said that, but Politico determined that  the tweet was in fact legitimate,  and became one of the most retweeted on Twitter for the night. Trump fumbled with other facts, like saying that he couldnt release his tax returns because he was being audited or that Clinton had been fighting ISIS for her entire adult life. Clinton mastered body language Although as a society we are loathe to admit it, sometimes image matters more than the words that are actually being said. Take the 1960 debate between Richard Nixon and John F. Kennedy, for example. Radio listeners declared Nixon the winner, but those who saw the debate televised believed Kennedy had won. In this case, speaking purely in terms of body language, Clinton mirrored Kennedys 1960 performance. She mastered the body language game, appearing calm and collected throughout the debate while her opponent energetically pantomimed every statement. Trump, physically speaking, appeared to be rankled like Nixon. Thats not likely to play as well with audiences as Clintons performance. Trump had trouble keeping cool   Trump began the debate without his characteristic flair. For the first 10 to 15 minutes, Trump debated rather calmly. But it didnt take long for Clintons comments to get under his skin, and after those several opening minutes, Trumps anger only intensified. Besides physically indicating his anger through body language, Trump appeared flustered at various points. No doubt he had been prepped with ammunition like the emerging Clinton Foundation scandal, but he hardly brought up any substantial attacks against Clinton besides a half-hearted jab about her emails. He did point out that she had once called the Trans-Pacific Partnership the gold standard and only changed her tune when public opinion turned against the TPP, but failed to press the attack sufficiently. Worse, Trump interrupted Clinton and moderator Lester Holt dozens of times. Contrasted against their calm demeanors, Trump came off as angry and wild. The more his hands fluttered about the screen and his answers devolved into vague circular logic games, the clearer it became that Trump was unable to remain calm. Lester Holt was a successful moderator The quality of the moderator can make or break a debate. With two fiery candidates who have ripped each other apart politically and personally for months on the same stage, Lester Holt had quite the challenge ahead of him. But Holt handled things near-perfectly, even while playing moderator and real-time fact-checker all at once. He reined in the candidates when they strayed off-topic and pressed them for details when their answers werent to his satisfaction, but offered them enough leeway to engage in a meaningful back-and-forth without being cut off. Although Holt has been criticized for not interrupting candidates as often as some viewers would have liked, he managed to strike a balance between interrupting when appropriate and letting debate flow naturally. Overall, each candidate had moments to be proud of and moments to cringe at. Trump shined at the beginning, but quickly lost steam and devolved into ranting while on the defensive. Clintons start was a bit shakier, especially given that some viewers may have seen her as disrespectful for calling Trump by his first name (even though he addressed her with the honorific Secretary). But as Trump faltered, Clinton hit her stride and performed generally well through the following stages of the debate. With each candidate painfully aware of their missteps but now certain of how to target their opponent, the second presidential debate on October 9 is sure to be a nail-biting display of just how bitter this race has become.

5 High-Paying Jobs You Can Get Without a College Degree

5 High-Paying Jobs You Can Get Without a College Degree pexels.com While we are all having unique experiences in college, the end goal of obtaining a university degree is the same: to get a job after graduation. Many of us, now making our way through the rough yet storied college path ourselves, are (desperately) embarking on job hunts to land that internship or get connected with the right companies early on. But sometimes, as we struggle through our coursework, our classes, and constant late nights, we can’t help but recall the stories of people who made something of themselves without getting a college degree. Then we can’t help but compare ourselves to those legends and wish we could be just as successful, just as quickly. Of course, everyone works hard to make their dreams a reality in one way or another so don’t think you have an automatic excuse to drop out of college! Just for kicks, though, here are some high-paying jobs one could possibly attain without a college degree because having more job options is never a bad thing. 1. Office Support Supervisor With a median annual salary of $52,602 in 2017, this job as an administrative assistant only requires a high school diploma or the equivalent. This role involves coordinating the activities of clerical and administrative workers in companies. If you can see yourself working in an office space and are fairly organized and responsible, this may be a good option for you. Plus, if you enjoy doing something useful to help others without being in the spotlight, you can perform your duties as an office support supervisor relatively behind the scenes. 2. Real Estate Brokers pexels.com   If you enjoy interacting with people and consider yourself at least somewhat persuasive, a real estate broker could be the job for you. Although the median annual wage is $56,790, brokers’ earnings depend largely on sales commission and so the pay will inevitably vary according to individual skill, economic conditions, and property value. And while brokers don’t typically need on-the-job training, most states do require candidates to pass a licensing exam first. 3. Aircraft Mechanics and Service Technicians While this job does not require a college degree, most candidates receive some sort of training related to aircraft mechanics in the military or attend a technical school approved by the Federal Aviation Administration. So, if you’re willing to go through a little bit of training beforehand and are interested in something mechanics-related, you could potentially earn about $60,170 annually. 4.  Makeup Artist pexels.com If you’re eyeing something a bit more on the creative and artistic side, you might consider becoming a makeup artist in the theatrical performance field. According to wallst.com, more than 22 percent of theatrical makeup artists did not graduate from high school and the median annual salary is still an impressive $60,970. 5. Media and Communication Equipment Worker If you have a working knowledge of various types of equipment (e.g. spotlight operators or satellite communications), you could be an equipment worker in the media and communication field. A great thing about this job besides the median annual wage of $75,700   is that it involves only short-term on-the-job training.

Using Polar Definition Chemistry for Your Chemistry Projects

Using Polar Definition Chemistry for Your Chemistry ProjectsPolar Definition Chemistry has a simple and easy process. It is basically one of the quickest ways to complete any chemistry project and requires little effort to understand. It will become your best friend when you are working on your chemistry homework, and it can also be used in your everyday life.Before getting started, let's start by defining the meaning of polar definition. It is an alternative to the classical definition of chemistry as a scientific field dealing with the properties and application of natural substances. This definition was created by the French chemist Renaud Lavoisier in 1785. He noticed that, according to the law of conservation of energy, substances contained within the atoms of a chemical compound are moved towards the lighter nucleus, and this was used to denote chemical properties in his book of fluid dynamics.For our purposes, you should know what this science term means. We will use it when w e need to look at how two different substances react and come together. Chemists call this polar reaction is defined as, 'the process of combination of matter by an uncharged atomic particle that exerts a force in the same direction as the particle and which does not rest, create its own separate products.'Polar definition basically consists of two polar processes, one involves the reaction of a charged particle (such as an atom) and the other involves the reaction of a static body. The charge and static particles are the polar particles. These are actually the opposite of each other, as an atom is neutral and a static body is charged. They are the ones used in polar definition, as they act as a mirror of the other particle.Polar definition can be used in a wide variety of applications. The chemicals that are made by the polar reaction will help in creating new, organic compounds, which are molecules that have a chemical property, such as weight, that are new to science. You can mix the elements of the polar definition with the elements of chemistry, such as carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and the like.The polar definition, also known as the molecular definition, is the best way to get a good grasp of all kinds of different chemistry. It is useful to know everything about the way that compounds work, and also how they come together to form new compounds.The polar definition can be used in many different ways. If you are interested in learning chemistry, you may want to take an introductory class on the subject, such as pre-calculus. They will also help in teaching you how to make all kinds of compounds. This method will get you familiar with the way that different reactions occur, as well as how to combine the atoms that you will learn about during the course of the chemistry lesson.
