Bethany's Relevant: Case Study

Bullies run rampant through the halls of schools across America, but fellow students are not always the problem. Teachers bully their students by using verbal abuse, causing unnecessary stress, or putting the student in harm's way. Students need the help and support of their mentors to achieve their academic goals. When the teacher becomes the bully, students cannot get the most out of their classes. Personal cases from students of Tinora High School and Karen Eubank show different ways that a teacher can cause more harm than good.

I believe that we have all had an experience where we have been bossed around or intimidated. It is in our nature that we want to retaliate or buck up, but at the same time, you must look at your surroundings. If your boss were to push you too hard to do something it is possibly because they want you to excel or do better than they did at that point. This is the same for David and the classmates. The teacher is intimidating and pushing them, but this is her technique. Eventually, David starts to understand her when she speaks.

Just like everyone starved for a safe community, the Discourse Community serves a place to build trust, respect, and communication skill. According to Merriam Webster dictionary, the word discourse means to express oneself especially in oral communication. Discourse community should be a place where one can live comfortably as it own self and not concealing its’ negative side. It should be a place where everybody treated each others like a family and where one can express its true feeling. Bethel Worship group is a community that I joined three years ago and still an active member there. Bethel Worship group is one of the department that Bethel Baptist Church If a person wanted to join a certain group, then “a person must learn the typical ways people in that community communicate and argue” (P30). This paper will prove that I successfully joined the Discourse Community through my logical appeal, emotional bonding, and my credibility.

The first factor is physical abuse; physical abuse is any intentional and unwanted contact with you or something close to your body (Google). If someone were to do something to you like pat you on the butt, or make you do sexual acts that you are against, also damage to or taking someone else’s belongings may also constitute as physical bullying.

If it is the line manager we are suspicious of, we have to go to the next level, to the head teacher or head governors. It is useful to have a look at the schoolâ€TMs whistle blowing policy to see the exact procedure. If we are making a complaint like this we are protected by law against any future disadvantages. The teacherâ€TMs union can also provide advice about the relevant policies and the rights of those involved. The childrenâ€TMs safety and healthy development is the paramount concern in a school setting, therefore whether we are being accused or are suspicious about a co- worker of being abusive, we have deal with the situation in a professional way and follow

KRS 525.070 (2008) states that a person is guilty of harassment when, with the intent to intimidate, harass, annoy or alarm another person, he or she, being enrolled as a student in a local school district, and while on school premises, on school -sponsored transportation, or at a school-sponsored event, a student does one of the following: (1) Damages or commits a theft of the property of another student, (2) substantially disrupts the operation of the school, or (3) Creates a hostile environment by means of any gestures, written communications, oral statements, or physical acts that a reasonable person under the

Discrimination and harassment can come in different forms, some discrimination could be seen as indirect for example a care worker spending an extra ten minutes with client A because they get on with them better than the next client, client B therefore rushing the client B’s session, while this may seem only minor at the time client B isn’t receiving all of the time they are entitled to and a lower standard of care therefore this would be seen as discrimination and could be sent to court. Most acts however are direct and have more meaning behind them this could be presented in many different form verbal and physical is the most common way delivering harassment and it could be of a race, sex, faith or other difference to discriminate on. However

Bullying is the use superior strength or influence to intimidate (someone), typically to force him or her to do what one wants. It happens in most if not all schools around the U.S. In one school, a teacher has done it! That one teacher is Mrs.Newhouse at Nooksack Valley. This menace has terrorized the small community of Nooksack for years and this year her new targets seem to be Braden Hetrick and the stunning Cy Encinias. They've finally come forward with their truly horrific stories of being "roasted" and targeted by Newhouse.

Harassment is “undesirable behavior identified with an important protected characteristic, which has the reason or impact of damaging an individual's dignity or creating intimidating, threatening, degrading, humiliating or offensive environment for that individual".

Indicators of bullying, harassment and discrimination may include unexplained injuries, avoidance of school and the playground, sleeping difficulties, shift in eating habits and a decline in grades. In addition, someone who is bullied, harassed or discriminated against may feel helpless and depressed, engaging in self-destructive behaviors such as cutting (self-harm) and suicide.

Ms. Kimberly, I have chosen Bethany Christian Services for my nonprofit organization report and analysis. In the advertisement, Bethany Christian Services has pictured the hand of a baby and the hand of an adult. The adult hand is holding the baby's wrist as for a feeling of security to the baby. The advertisement is promoting family for a child's best chance to thrive. I located this advertisement on a page dated November 24, 2015, on the Street Hope TN website. The page is subjected to thanking Bethany for their partner services. Furthermore, I find this Ad effective because it is significant to a child's family and promotes the well-being of children in loving and caring forever families.

A student in high school has been coming to counseling for harassment and bullying. She was in fear of another kids that has been harassing her. The harassment that she was receiving has been from various other students, they have been harassing her in person. She wanted to know how to correctly handle the situation that she has been dealing with. She feared going to some classes because she knew that other students were harassing her.

      The willful infliction of mental suffereing, by a person in a position of trust with an elder, constitutes emotional abuses. Verbal assaults, threats, instilling fear, humiliation, intimidation, or isolation from an elder are all cases of emotional abuse (Cates & Markell, 1995). When a chid is being emotionally abuse, signs are generally psychological rather then physical. Teachers must be able to notice the pyschological signs of emotional abuse in order to asses the situation. In a study done by MacIntyre (1990) twenty eight percent of the teachers that partcipated in study said they were completely unaware of any types of sings of emotional abuse. Thus

Sexual Harassment in school usually occurs during passing, recess, or during lunch. Sexual harassment can range from a quick glance to a hoot or whistle. In many cases, one does not know that they are being harassed or harassing someone. Maybe a friend tells you a dirty joke or someone who you see everyday and who you do not know gives you an unusual smile. Do you feel offended by the joke? Are you uncomfortable with the person giving you a smile? Some may say that this is more of a paranoia problem and then just push it aside, but in most cases, it is not.

All it takes is seven seconds to completely assess and categorize a person you’ve barely met. This has happened to everyone, especially as a student. Small visual clues such as one’s expression, their race, gender, demeanor, and clothing, set the precedent for how the teacher will view their students from the beginning of the school year to the last day. Most favoritism teachers dole out is subconscious. The reason they may gravitate towards and dote on particular kids could stem from the initial assessment they made or even bias. Humans tend to gravitate towards others similar to them. While there is the belief that teachers playing favourites is natural, necessary, and unavoidable, this behavior is harmful to the student, harmful to their peers, and is often completely irrational.
