Persuasive Essay About Inclusion

Trayvon Martin. Michael Brown. Donald Trump. Tomi Lahren. Colin Kaepernick. What do all these people have in common? Massive divides in the America today. America, dubbed the land of the free, does do a lot for its citizens. American citizens are able to speak up against authority without being hauled away and killed like in the Russian Revolution. People can be whatever sexually they are without it being a crime. But just because these are not against the law does not mean that other citizens will respect them. Every day, people are racially and sexually discriminated against. Michael Brown was an unarmed black teen who lost his life to a police officer, who practically got off with little to no punishment. Colin Kaepernick was not drafted in the NFL because of his flag protesting against the treatment of African Americans in America. Kaepernick’s actions are the first step to making America into a better society. He did not sit back and allow abuse to continue. He took a stand for what he believed in knowing there would be lots of sacrifice for doing what he is doing. Our first step to making America a better society would be also taking a stand for our beliefs. Adding onto that, we must be open to more opinions and options.

Many students find their interests and discover who they are through extra-curricular activities, including arts and athletics. A heavy focus on raising test scores and getting a maximum GPA are denying students this basic right. Schools are taking vital days of learning away from students by dedicating full days to practice tests. Many schools admit raising test scores is a main priority, according to principals today. The pressure put on students to raise their schools status through test scores and higher grade point averages is hurting our future generations. Despite test grades and GPA’s being the main focus, school systems today need to focus on building self confidence and creativity while encouraging individualism.

There is no doubt that white is the majority group in America society, however, the increasing number of black, Latino, or Native American in the United States draws more and more people’s attention on race discrimination in recent years. As one of the most serious social problem in American, black people had arrived in America since 16th century as salves. They helped to establish this beautiful country but they did not share the equal rights as other whites. Blacks had been through discrimination for a long time and that situation did not improve until 1960s. So far, race has became a kind of standard to judge a person’s life in education level, employment situation and personalities. For example, William Julius Wilson mentions most white people tend to believe black people are lazy and not honesty as employees due to the race bias, which has been rooted deeply in the society (Wilson). To reduce the discrimination, some people raise the idea that university should consider race as a aspect when they approach applicants and give some help to minorities, which called affirmative action. Therefore, more minorities could reach the high education and it can create a various university society, which can improve the understanding between white people and minorities and decrease the racial inequity.

Adapt the extent to which a learner is actively involved in the task.For example:In geography, have a student hold the globe, while others point out locations.Adapt the goals or outcome expectations while using the same materials.For example:In social studies, expect a student to be able to locate just the states while others learn to locate

With the multiple bombings, shootings, and vehicles running over innocent civilians, it would be quite ignorant to believe that equality has, indeed, gotten better. It is true that society as a whole has begun to transition towards equality, but financial, racial, sexual, gender, and religious inequality is still very much a key component of what makes America ironically “free”. One example would be America’s current president, Donald Trump. Although, while he may be the ringleader and speaker for the narrow-minded, he has yet to greatly impact the course of the U.S. as a whole. In fact, the United States was already on the path to destruction a long time ago. What may have caused it? Well, in my personal opinion, the very stubbornness that has allowed us to fight and prosper as a nation is going to be the very demise of our country. We are not ready for change. We are set in our ways, and even the most influential of leaders will have only the most minor of impacts on the population.

Another way to improve student’s success in Anaheim school is for students to know their ability and effort. “Many people assume that possessing superior intelligence or ability is a recipe for success” (21). Success can be any accomplishments even if the intelligence matters or not anyone can be success in many different ways.

To achieve student success, I thought students had to be part of an extracurricular activity or take AP classes everyone else was afraid to take, or maybe even do both at the same time and still keep their grades stable and participate in the clubs or sports that they’re in. All the research came from watching a research documentary and from reading research articles. Luckily I was partially correct, the reason this is because Anaheim schools can improve student success if the following changes take place: shorter summer vacations, congratulating and complimenting students for their hard work instead of complimenting how smart they are, and by making it mandatory that students are part of a club or sport.

     Inclusion “mainstreams” physically, mentally, and multiply disabled children into regular classrooms. Back in the sixties and the seventies, disabled children were excluded all together from regular classrooms. Currently, the federal inclusion law, I.D.E.A. (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act), addresses children whose handicaps range from autistic and very severe to mild (I.D.E.A. Law Page). From state to state the laws of inclusion vary. The laws may permit the special needs children to be in regular classrooms all day and for all subjects or for just one or two subjects (Vann 31). Other times the state laws allow those with special needs to have aids with them to help them in

The United States has always been known as the nation of immigrants. It was our country’s symbol and pride. However wherever there is diversity, discrimination between race and ethnicities will co-exist along. Over the past century, the fight against discrimination by many civil right activists and movement had taken place in order to bring equality for everyone in our nation like today. Ones of many revolutionary civil right laws were the Civil Rights Act of 1965 and the Immigration and Nationality Act Amendments of 1965. The Civil Rights Act of 1965 was passed with the goal to end the long existing justice within the American’s voting system to exclude minorities based on their status quo and previous servitude condition before the Civil War of 1861. While the Immigration and Nationality Amendments of 1965 aimed to abolish the old and discriminating quota system that has been going on in the American immigration policy since the 1920s. In my opinion, these two laws did relieve the exclusion being placed on the minorities to some degree by getting rid of unfair systems. Even though they did not solve the discrimination problem immediately, they were still proven to be great stepping stones for more civil rights activists and movements to take place and fight for equality among our nation.

Allen and Cowdery (2012) state ‘Inclusion is not a set of strategies or a placement issue. Inclusion is about belonging to a community – a group of friends, a school community, or a neighborhood’ (Pg.5). Inclusion of children with disabilities in 'normal' classrooms, happens to be a widely debated topic; whilst there are valid arguments on both sides and benefits for both inclusion and segregation, inclusion has become law (Holdheide & Reschly, 2008). Inclusion requires a great deal of work in and out of the classroom setting. One of the most prominent barriers is that of communication; with lack of time, funding and negative attitudes of not only parents, but the student body and teachers bringing up the

What do think when you hear student success? Many people think different things. For example, student success could be a student having a good job in something they specialized on, and are living on their own without anybody's help. There are several different ways student succeed and ways to change schools in order for their students to succeed as well in this article. For instance, Anaheim High Schools can improve student success if we have longer school days, make the student be interested in school and on what they are learning, and having more after school programs that interest kids and will keep their minds off of bad things.

Joining an extracurricular activity is either a burden or an honor depending on the student. Imagine being put into an extracurricular activity where you have to learn many different dances because you will be competing with other schools for the championship, keep in mind you are dancing with students that you efficiently have never known. And the worst part, according to the students, girls dancing with boys and vice versa. Anaheim schools can increase students' success by providing free extracurricular activities that grant them to experience new things that they have never been through before because it changes their view on things they hadn’t even been given the chance to try or see. As well as providing every student with the materials that are necessary so that even low-income students can get the opportunity to try them. In the film documentary Mad Hot Ballroom, directed by Marilyn Agrelo, students are given the opportunity to dance and compete with other schools, while teams are getting eliminated throughout the competition until they reach the championship. "It's not bad not to make it" (Agrelo). This was said from one of the men in the meeting before the competition. He had mentioned that most of the time the children are brought down because they eliminated and they do make it. But they have to look at the bright side, the thing that matters is that they tried and not making it in the competition doesn't mean they are not good at dancing, but they can make

As Justice Henry Brown once said, “the object of the 14th amendment was undoubtedly to enforce the absolute equality of the two races”, but racial segregation was a key point in these cases. Plessy v. Ferguson and Brown v. Board of Education are two major cases in the United States that inspired the movement of civil rights for African Americans. In 1896 Homer Plessy fought for his 13th and 14th amendments. While in 1952, Linda Brown argued that segregated schools violated the 14th amendment. The 14th amendment states “nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property without due process; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of laws” (Plessy). Meaning that everyone is equal and everyone shall be treated equal by law. So, due to their rights Plessy and Brown took their cases to court. First, the case of Plessy v. Ferguson.

At the end of everyone of her shows, famous television host Ellen Degeneres always says, “Be kind to one another.” Individuals, especially those part of the LGBT+ community, are discriminated against due to their gender or appearance. They are not given the same treatment or equality that are given to those who do fit society’s standards.

When someone calls themself transgender, it means that they do not identify with the gender they were assigned at birth. For example, someone who was born as a man may later realize that they are in fact a woman; this person would be called a trans woman. There is much debate over transgenderism and, specifically, whether society should treat transgenders as their biological sex or their gender identity. For example, if a transgender man (biological sex being female) wants to use the men’s restroom, should he be able to? The laws that would allow this are known as transgender inclusion laws, and the debate over passing such laws has always been extremely heated. Transgender inclusion laws should be passed in all areas, as there has been no increase in crime rates as a result of transgender use of public facilities, transgenderism is absolutely real and should be recognized as such, and these laws only brings benefits for any trans-friendly environments.
