Consequently, we are made to understand that the teachers are also human beings with feelings and wishes. They too are free to articulate

Furthermore, the important Tournament of Roman History is almost won due to Sedgewick Bell's cheating. The headmaster at the time trickles under the weight of the powers and tells Hundert to ignore the cheating and move on. There were higher-ups at the school as well as Sedgewick Bell's senator father continually badger Hundert and prevent him from taking any action against Sedgewick Bell. Perhaps Mr. Hundert draws some ironic encouragement from his self regard that he has failed to reshape Sedgewick Bell's personal character. But I believe he also overestimates the influence on his character building coaching might have on students like his. Hundert has a clear sense of his own identity that he cannot always stand up to others.

In New Jersey, there are a set of teaching standards that all teachers must follow in their classrooms. Standard 2ii5 states, the teacher understands that learners bring assets [and liabilities] for learning based on their individual experiences, abilities, talents, prior learning, as well as language, culture, family, and community values. On the other hand, standard 3ii2 says, the teacher values the role of learners in promoting each other’s learning and recognizes the importance of peer relationships in establishing a climate of learning. In this paper, I will be talking about standards 2ii5 and 3ii2 and how they relate to the novel The Pact. The Pact talks about three young doctors and their journeys in getting there. All three of the

By doing this, he set up a second "julius Caesar" competitionand a highschool reunion. " intaught a boy who, if not for the vengeful recriminations of the tabloids, would today have been pesident of the United States. That school was my life. This is why, I suppose, I accepted the invitation sent to me by Mr. Sedgewick Bell although I shouldv'e known better" (cannin 156). Hundert knew that he should have not accepted the invitation, this is a bad

Huck Finn, a narcissistic and unreliable young boy, slowly morphs into a courteous figure of respect and selflessness. After Pap abducts the young and civilized Huck, Huck descends into his old habits of lies and half-truths. However, upon helping a runaway slave escape, Huck regains morality and a sense of purpose. Throughout The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain, Huck lies to characters, casting the authenticity of the story into doubt but illustrating Huck’s gradual rejection of lying for himself and a shift towards lying for others.

Mr. Hundert is a teacher that follows many virtues: courage, discipline, justice, and honesty. One can definitely see this teaching when he meets Sedgewick Bell, but one may also see his failures. To entice his virtue of courage, for example, he tells Sedgewick to do well in school. One can tell in the movie that Sedgewick might believe that trying in school will make him not popular, or maybe it fears him. Either way, there’s something hindering his performance in school, and of course, Mr. Hundert was able to convince Sedgewick to start doing well in class by giving him a book that helped him get understand the material. Another incident where he’s helping Sedgewick was when he wasn’t able to check out a book in the library. Then, Mr. Hundert enters asking the librarian to give him the book, and it was given. Another virtue

Ronald Reagan gave a speech in Orlando, Florida on March 8, 1983 called, “The Evil Empire.” This speech was intended for the ears of all Americans and is one of the best known presidential speeches ever given. In his speech, Reagan uses multiple rhetorical strategies such as; metaphors, allusions, rhetorical questions, tone, pathos, and uses references from the bible. He talks about all the main points of abortion, teenage sex, drugs, the Soviet Union, and the practice of praying and God in our public schools. His speech was very well written, moving, and extremely influential. This speech shows the president’s belief that the

In Mark Twain’s novel, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, the young protagonist Huckleberry Finn runs away from his abusive father with Jim, a black slave. Throughout the novel, Huck encounters people that fail to understand the injustice of slavery and violence, despite their education. Although Huck lacks any substantial education, his moral values and judgment are highly developed. In the novel The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Mark Twain uses uneducated, colloquial diction and deliberate syntax to provide ironic contrast between Huck’s rudimentary level of education and profound use of moral judgment.

This school believes in conformity and its four pillars; tradition, honor, discipline and excellence. Throughout the movie it also highlights the damaging effects of conformity through the philosophies of Ralph Waldo Emerson. There are

Professor Hundert repeats throughout the film one consistent theme. Hundert tells the students that a man’s character is his fate. He is presented as a respectable and honest history teacher at St. Benedict's Academy for Boys. He seems to have high moral standards, which should be important in anyone, but especially those who are teachers who instill in their student’s character and integrity, virtue, civic duty, morality and ethics.

As a steward of the discipline, My objective is to facilitate the development of confident, critical thinking students who can continue to grow beyond the classroom. I will transform knowledge with the completion of my Ph.D. and active work in the education system (Golde, 2006, pg. 11).I am at the this current time teaching High school English and Drama at a Public School in New Jersey.  Stewards of the Discipline require a combination of skills and principles. These act as their competence and morality (Golde, 2006, pg. 7). Thru my work in the Ph.D. program here at Walden I hope to learn the skills needed to become a steward of discipline.I will begin to shape complex fundaments of the discipline of my area.One must become a master of the discipline (Golde, 2006, pg. 10).
