External Factor Thesis

In the city of Los Angeles is Fremont High School, and unlike most schools in the country, this one runs on a three-track schedule, meaning that it is open year round with short numerous breaks throughout the year. The school contains 3,300 students in attendance year round and being that the school is lacking in funds and hindering the students from following their dreams, this is very impactful on a large amount of people beause it lacks also preparation for college. In the article, “Fremont High School”, Jonathan Kozol examines the conditions of Fremont High School from the perspective of the students, and teachers alike. He uses statistics that have been submitted to the courts during depositions and student recounts of activity. Jonathan Kozol uses persuasive techniques such as ethos, logos, and pathos in the article, “Fremont High School”, to persuade the audience, members of society, that they can help by providing funds, because of the lack of funding it has caused a disservice to the students, causing students to struggle with following their dreams.

The topic that will be discussed in this paragraph is the way your environment affects your life decisions. Wes is faced with the decision of skipping school to go hang out with friends and do illegal things or to go to school pay attention and get a good education. The author is

High School is a life lesson to young adults for the future that is going to come their way, but school at this point is more about passing then learning. Teens often do not think straight and go to great extents for problems in their life to be thought out in a simple manner. In the short story, I’ve got Gloria M.E Kerr, develops the idea that kids will go out of there way and lie to get a better grade due to their parent’s expectations and their own. In other words, students will go out of their way to use something that the teacher has a valuable connection to for to their benefit and pleasure. The ideas in this story show; Teenagers do not think straight especially when they are irritated but think of ways where to work around into profiting

The life outcome that Wes Moore, the author, had was different from the other Wes More. He was doing bad in his education as well with his interactions with the family. Every teacher declared that Wes was a poor student and was unmotivated to pay attention in class. The teachers came to conclusion that Wes had a problem socializing, however; Wes “was a victim of a monocultural educational environment that alienates and denigrates him” (Sue, 230). The school staff was unable to see that the problem existed within the institution/ environment and not on Wes, because they were focusing only in one culture which made Wes feel as an outsider. The

My thesis statement is that while the boys were on the island they created their own society, they made their own rules, but broke them. They were in a bad society because they were on their own and did everything on their own, they did not have any adults to tell them what to do or anything.

There were many diverse aspects to this book. Most of this book is a recall from either the main character, or one of his students. This book is intended to open people’s eyes to see that in order to change the world we must first change ourselves. Being able to go through this story and see the mistakes, and the good decisions, teachers in Michie’s life have made, has taught me that the best way to teach is through love, justice, cultural empathy and imagination. Some of the points brought up in this book include the positive and negative sides of physical contact with a student, classification/stereotyping, race, gangs, police brutality/lack of justice, and children not being able to escape peer pressure.

Every student in every school, belongs to a different household, with a different family, and different ways of living their lives. Not every student falls under one same reason as to why they fail in school. And what each of these researchers are doing, is giving an entire article over one reason they think is good enough, but the truth is, a researcher is not capable of writing an article over one single reason and believe they have solved the mystery. There is no “general idea” as to why. Teachers, principals and researchers categorize every failing student as unsuccessful, but it is that same reason that drives those same students towards where they are headed. I’ve seen this in my younger brother who is a sophomore. He started failing from the minute my stepfather starting shooting him down for his “C” grades in Junior High. That lessened my brother’s potential and lessened his idea of being successful. After every school meeting, every detention, every phone call; He gave up. All this attention he was receiving, he didn’t want it, nor did he need it to succeed. There’s a difference between wanting to help a student, and simply wasting time on one. What these teachers, principals, and my stepfather did, was waste their time and my brother’s. Because in the end, he didn’t care to change. Especially with continuous judgment, categorizing and comparisons to other children or family members. In the article, “Kewauna’s Ambition”,

Juan is a 17 year old senior who attends high school in a small Midwestern community. Juan has many strengths and weaknesses that pertain to his life on the micro level. Some explicit weaknesses that Juan has are his parent’s marital problems and being diagnosed with dyslexia. Since being diagnosed, Juan has not received any supplemental services to help him learn in a way that helps him. Juan’s dad has high expectations for him to pass his college entry level exams, and because of this he has anxiety because he fears of disappointing his parents.

The second story that helps support the thesis statement is “A & P”. In this story a boy named Sammy, tries to impress a group of girls by quitting his job as the girls were being kicked out of the store where Sammy works. Sammy shortly after quitting realizes the mistake he has made and how is was going to make his life tougher. One quote that displays this lesson is: “‘Sammy, you don 't want to do this to your Mom and Dad,’ he tells me. It 's true, I don 't. But it seems to me that once you begin a gesture it 's fatal not to go through with it.” This quote shows that Sammy doesn 't even want to do what he is doing and he knows it 's a mistake, but he continues with it anyways. The quote also claims that this will not only affect him but also his parents. When your actions start affecting others negatively, it feels way worse than

I was out of place, a quiet girl whose clothing was obviously not fashionable, lucky if she had a bag lunch, and no reason to be confident. I was picked on relentlessly by others who recognized an easy target. My chaotic home life was never conducive to good grades, or school for that matter. No one I knew was a role model and no one volunteered to step up to be one. With no social life and a toxic home life, my grades plummeted before they had a chance to climb.

There are many external and internal factors that impact the planning functions of management. We must all be mindful of these factors because they could have an enormous impact on organizations productivity.

In the paper "Comments: One More Externality Article" Peskin (1988) refers to the debate between Freeman, Bird, and Baumol and Oates to determine the distinction between depletable and undepletable externalities. Depletable means that if there is a fixed amount of pollution, it will be reduced as one person "consumes" it. When there is not a fixed amount of pollution that is reduced as it is consumed, then it is undepletable. For example, air pollution can be considered a depletable externality, because air pollution can be reduced by each extra person who “consumes” it. On the other hand, nuclear radiation can be counted as an undepletable externality, since nuclear emissions are generally permanent damages that cannot be reduced when an extra
