I gathered student written inventories and held personal interviews and conversations with students and their families in order to help my students grow and mature in their vocabulary usage. This information told me they value who they are and what motivates them so I could design innovative practices and utilize proven methods of vocabulary instruction that promote learning for all my students.
I think that the english textile factories were were bad for the health of the working class families because in article A Michael Ward said that the kids in there were getting their arms and legs just sliced open and fingers taken off. Also in document B it says that the person who wanted the reporter to take a report of the factory was the owner of the factory and that could mean that he just made a lot of that up. Another reason that i think that the factories are bad is because in document C it says that the workers had to work all day and they got only one meal. One more reason that I think that the factories were bad is because in document D it says that the children were often beaten by their overlookers.
Do you think that English textile factories were bad for the health of working class families. Use evidence from at least two of the documents to support your claim.
In general, I feel that this lesson was generally successful. The students, for the most part were engaged and thinking about the North East region. During the previous lesson, we discussed that the regions were divided by climate, culture, geography and economy and the students were able to apply those concepts to the lesson. Because they are familiar with this region, because it is our home region, they were able to compare and analyze aspects of this region to the other regions. They determined the climate, culture, economy and geography of this region by activating prior knowledge and sharing what they knew about the
Everyday, millions of consumers in the United States contribute to the harsh treatment, under paid, and sexual abuse of factory workers all over the world. The garment industry, one of the largest in the world, generates over 3 trillion dollars a year yet the average monthly wage is 21 dollars a month, 80% of whom are women, and including children ages 5 to 14. While most apparel used to be manufactured in the United States, in the past decade a majority of manufacturers have moved operations overseas due to loose regulations according to the huffington post (Badal). The current trend of fast fashion comes at a much greater cost than we are all aware of, The True Cost, a documentary by Andrew Morgan highlights fashions “unadvertised sins” such as unregulated production, toxic garment dyes harmful to both workers and the environment, and attempts by the factory workers to form unions that end in violence (Wilson).
The strengths of the lesson in my opinion was the fact that the students could play a game while also participating with consonant blends and consonant digraphs. Even though throwing buttons into a cup is fun and the lesson involved competition, it still made the students think about consonant digraphs and consonant blends. I also think that it helped the students realize how many words are made with consonant blends and consonant digraphs, which will help with their phonemic awareness.
The lesson should first be introduced to the class through the vocabulary. This gives the students the back ground on the words used to describe what the lesson is about, and allows them to use the words in context with what they are doing.
4. How can Sergei and Olga begin producing fashionable women’s cashmere coats in their factory? Is this feasible or should they give up the dream? Propose an action plan to move their business in this direction.
For 6 days a week, many people women as young as 10 years old, poured out into the streets ready to head into work to the Triangle Shirtwaist factory. The American dream depended on their willingness to work and they worked for 14 hours for at most $2. In these many hours of labor, they worked in horrible conditions, not allowed to stop, not even a drink or a bathroom break. They were also expected to make no mistakes and if got hurt, needed to keep working no matter what. At the end of the day, they were expected to do one more thing, letting the operators check their purse so that no shirts were stolen.
In order to get our information on the innovation and impact of the textile mills, as a group we gathered information from various places and did extensive research on our topic. We found a great quantity of information by visiting the Upland Public Library, surfing numerous websites, collecting many primary interviews,
The study was carried out on the production facility of a T-shirt based garment industry in India. The current system used by the garment industry is Progressive bundling system (PBS). However, the PBS system leads to bulks of work-in-process (WIP) because each PBS system is being setup for each exclusive product. High amount of WIP causes high throughout time as well as the rework time which will also makes the line balancing different with a lot of hidden defects in the products. Besides that, the factory manufactures the t-shirt in small order size with a lot of styles. Thus, the production must hold minimum WIP between processes so that it can adapt to the changes of order quickly with minimum setting time. By using the current PBS system, such flexibility could not be achieved. Among all the departments, sewing department having the highest amount of WIP. The main problem encountered by the sewing room is high production lead time. It takes 2 days for the first piece to be delivered from the supply chain.
As I am working on artists who undergoes and get inspirations from World War, it might be really interesting for me to look at what women wear and how clothing industries develop during that period of time. The first thing that comes to my mind is some really dirty and baggy work clothes because many of the women were recruited into different jobs as men were sent to fight in the war. To find out more, I grab a book from the library as my primary research source, it is the "Wartime Fashion" by Geraldine Howell, and is totally different to what I thought. In the chapter 'Keep smiling through: good health and natural beauty', the British cosmetics firm Yardley had encouraged women to 'put your best face forward', promoting a natural look for
Describe the problem your innovation targets. What is the scope of the problem and which stakeholders, both within the organization and without, does it impact?

Bangladesh’s businesses people have channeled their energy in ready-made garments (RMG) industry for export purposes. The ready-made garments industry facilitates 80% of the country’s exports and further provides over 4 million employment opportunities, with three-quarters being women (Anisul Huq, Stevenson, & Zorzini, 2014). The growth in this sector has consequently promoted numerous multiplier connections such as the cloth, insurance, professional services, yarn, banking, real estate and machinery economic sectors. The industry has also faced devastating challenges, and some of them are man-made industrial accidents. The past progress will be in vain if Bangladesh cannot make progress to ensure workers’ protection by fostering
