Many kids in today’s world are not learning enough to be able to live in the global economy and according to David Boren, the former U.S. Senator, “Not training our kids to be able to work and live in an international environment is like leaving them illiterate” (182). The best way to learn a culture is to study the language and devote time where the language is important. Learning a foreign language rises, brain growth, yet fewer American schools offer it. To

In S.E Hinton's novel, The Outsiders, there were three significant passages from Chapter 9. As Johnny was in the process of dying, he mentioned a very catchy passage to Ponyboy: "Stay gold, Ponyboy"(148). This quote defined that all things must have an ending such as the beautiful things you've witnessed. For instance, Johnny and Ponyboy realized that their relationship was about to come to an end, so Johnny advises Ponyboy to stay the way he is or be innocent. And he also meant that Ponyboy needs to protect himself when he's in danger.

I propose a program that will help immigrants who want to live in the United States learn the English language to improve their communication and, help third-year U.S. college students who want to become teachers gain practice. First, immigrants would learn to communicate while helping our future teachers gain hands-on training in a classroom setting. Lastly, teaching immigrants to speak English will help cross cultural boundaries and, possibly change our views about immigrants as they will be able to connect and tell their stories. Helping immigrants while helping U.S. citizens in the process is the best way to work together on some immigration issues and views.

Shut up. Liar, liar. Brenda does love me. She’s always loved me. As he turned he saw a shadow out the corner of his eyes. It was Julia she was standing in the doorway with tears in her eyes and her lips piercing. Julia screamed, I knew it. I knew there was someone else. All the lies and the late nights. You two must have had a lot of laughs at my expense. Franklin how could you do this to me? I am your wife and the mother of your child. Doesn’t that mean anything to you. For the last month, I’ve been finding papers with the name Brenda written on them and last week I found a sketch of a woman with black hair. I tried to tell myself that it was nothing. Just apart of one of your cases. But when I saw the picture I knew it was the girl you dated in college. It was the woman who dumped you after she met and married a rich husband who owned a shopping mall. Franklin cried, Julia I’m not well. I hear voices in my head and they are making me do and say crazy things. You are the only woman I love.

Hello. It’s me, Island. It hasn’t been long since there was a crash somewhere on me. There must've been living beings because I felt footsteps walking all over me. Judging by the feeling of their footsteps, they must’ve all been children. Somewhere I heard a voice echoing throughout me saying “No grownups!”. No growns up you say? Where could they be? Is there only children inhabiting me? I sense 2 young boys by their voices. I think I heard one of them mention that their name is Ralph, but at the same time repeating the name Piggy. I’m guessing the other boy with him is named Piggy. Watching over the two boys, I saw that they were exploring me and found a pool area. The one boy named Ralph went in the water first, and then the one I think is

Lord of the Flies Passage Commentary The passage beginning with “Piggy handed Ralph his glasses…”, which is written in the novel Lord of the Flies, portrays the progression of the novel’s story line. At first, the children are struggling to start a fire; they become desperate to light a fire for warmth and safety. However, eventually by some miraculous way, the wood lights on fire, causing a relieved tone in the children. Golding incorporates sensory image and repetition of an action to show how the children are struggling.

The three different languages that I know have shaped my personality. I’ve become sensitive to “code switching” when it comes to talking to different people such as my parents or even my “bạn” (friends). Not being an immobile, unchanged definition, literacy can be greater than the language itself, but it can manifest into a lifestyle. Assimilating into the cultures, because of the literacy experiences, widened my lens of perspective. Villanueva creates the idea of creating connections by learning different literacies. Already being fluent in my home literacies, it allowed me to make connections with other people of my culture. Not only that, but the gamer language has allowed me to make virtual friends that also know my home language. The difference is that we can speak casually to each other. The enormous fraction of the above-average Asian gamer (i.e. League of Legends, Overwatch, etc.) intertwined my path with the multiple literacies achieved throughout

According to the findings of one experiment, students can benefit from the time and experience of interpersonal skills in an online environment(Lindsey & Rice, 2015). Furthermore, another experiment concluded that students who received lesson instructions from a combination of online and in person performed better on average that students using only online or in person instructions(Angiello, 2010). Second Life would provide a level of online learning without sacrificing the social experience of a traditional classroom through the use of avatars in a virtual reality school environment(Bates-Brkljac 2012). For example, a school could create environments for a virtual class trip such as the surface of the Moon that would be difficult to visit in real life(Salmon,

Bloom brings his expertise to the virtual world, giving students diverse insight into the problems and questions they ponder in their lives.

Virtual worlds have solved many of the challenges faced by educational institutions. Today, hundreds of colleges, universities and other learning organizations are either augmenting their current traditional classroom curriculum with a virtual learning component or are holding classes and entire programs exclusively in immersive learning environments in Second Life. Second Life’s persistent virtual environments give students an opportunity to work together synchronously and then return, individually or as a team. The learning space is always equally available, for geographically dispersed groups as well as for those who meet regularly in the physical world. This is especially useful when students require more flexible schedules or need to work asynchronously on the same project.
