=Research assigment= Abuse

I hear every time about child abuse, but I always wonder why people abuse their own or why somebody else abuses a child. I think that everyone is supposed to like a child. In this paper I going to write about how child can be abused physical, maltreatment, and neglect.

Physical abuse is when the child do something wrong with his/ her parent. For example, if their parents tell the child don't watch television until they finish their homework and the child don't listen to their parent and the child watch television. For this reason, their parent may beat them. As a result, the child can have injury in their body. It can be in their arm, leg, nose, and ear. As one observer mention that " physical injury, usually inflicted as a result of a beating or inapproriately harch discipline" ( htt:// www. encyclopedia.com/ topichild- abuse .aspx)". Furthermore, parent who live in a bad neighborhood, when the child go out to play their child can be abused by other people. For instance, they can beat them, and the child will be behind the psychosocial development. Because the child will have depression stress, and the child will lack of exercise. Their height and weight will be below normal of their age. According to Kathleen Stassen Berger (2009)" physical abuse likely to be experienced by children with the following characteristics :

Are under age 6 Have two or more siblings Have an unemployed or absent father Have a mother who dd not complete high school Live in a poor, high- crime neighborhood " (p. 242).

Second, maltreatment abuse is when the parent don''t like the child or not care for the child, and the child suffers. For this reason, the child will become very hostile to the other people because their parent givr them love at home. The child does not make a lot of friend in school. She doesn't feel to be around the other people. The child feel to stay by herself the child feel lonely and separate than the other children. According to Katlhleen Stassen Berger ( 2009)" Maltreatment children typically regard other people as hostile and exploitative hence, they are less friendly, more aggeressive,and isolated than the other children" (p.243).

Third, neglect is when their parent fails to give the child what she needs for example, if the child sick, and their parent don't take them to the hospital. Or their parent don't care if the child go to school or if the child attend school. When the parent don't help the child with their homework, the child will fail in school,and the child will fall behind the cognitive development. As one observer mention that neglect is failure to seek needed health care), educational ( fairlure to see that a child is attending school) '' ([|http://www.Encyclopedia.com/topic/] child- abuse. aspx)". Physical abuse, maltreatment and neglect can lead to slow physical growth, lack of appetite, stomaches,headaches, sleepiness, reluctantto talk, to play, or to move . In addition, the child will develop slow, no close friend, and the child will hostile toward others. And the child will absent from school. And the child will fear rather than be happy.

Furthermore, the child will have behavior problems. The child will have a poor school attendance, and the child will have a tardiness chronic hunger. According to Lorene Newberry ( 2003)" failure to provide adequate physical protection, nutrion,or health care is generally considered neglect, but neglect can also include lack of human contack and love. currently 53.5% of all abuse cases involve neglect, with 44% of deaths in 1999 attributed to the neglect (p. 744).

Finally, physical abuse, maltreatment, and neglect will effect the community because they need the child for the next generation to be part of the commuinit. And it will effect school because the child will not do well in school, and the school will behind achiivement test as well. And it will effect the classroom because when the child go to class they can't learn because they feel depress,stress and lonely. As a result, the other student will not happy because they want all the student happy in the class. The teacher will not happy also because the teacher want the student happy in this clss.

In conclusion, the community and, the school have to make a program for the child abused, and their parents, such as home visit, changing attitudes, enhancement education, provide assistance and need for the child. The community have to talk to their parent and to the child every day. They can make family time, and eat togther every day. All of these will help the child and their parent to improve in biosocial development, cognitive development, and psychosocial development.

Vygotsky's term that he used to expalin dealing with various emtions to daily living easier is the zone of proximal development. He explained that this is what can do with some guidance of a more experienced peer; thi is more than they would be able to to do just by themselsves. This is a technique that they learn from others. just like how in the video they asked what others could do to help the student deal with different emotions in ways that he /s he had not been able to do on their own.

2. while anger is seen as a problem for these and other adolescents, it does not serve a purpose. How would you expalin the benefits of confict to these two students?

I woud say that anger is a good thing for students to deal with because it will teach them how to take control and how to deal with different situations that the will definitely be put in. Also anger can make things better for friends by letting the 2 get everything out in the open that has been eating away at them inside. Dealing with anger will help them deal with conflicts and find the best way to deal with situations that aren't necessarily good. Even though this isn't really the best type of interaction between children it is necessary for them to deal with. And dealing with it with others helps them to get through it ways that maybe they did not theink were possible.

3. How do student's emotions impact their learning.?

student's emotions greatly impact their learining. If a student is not best frame of mind due to a fight, or lack of sleep, or something esle then they will not be in the right frame of mind to learn. A child is more likely to worry if theyt must be in the right frame of mind and willing to pay full attention to the lesson.

 * consider logic, metaphisics, epistemoloy, and axiology. What type of classroom will you be most comfortable in?**

The type of classroom will that I would feel most comfortable in is the realism school of philosohpy. I like things that are concrete and right there in front of your face. This school of philosophy is all about taking problems and being able to solve them through various ways. I am a fan of testing students to figure out if the comprehend what was taught to tem or not. also, I beleieve that critical thinking is a big part of schooling since that teaches you know how to apply things learned in the classroom to real life events that will occur some day.

I think that the scientific method is a great way to teach students how to solve problems. I lets them guess what they think will happen produce a way to approach the task, then follow through wih it to see if they were right or wrong. I like that realism is all about perception and understanding. As a person I believe that I must see something to believe it and for it to be true. I think that this is just how realists see things as well. Again, I was always and advocate for testing to make sure that I comprehended the information and was able to recall it at the time needed.

Article reflection My reflection for this article is the purpose of self- reflection at Parkway is to enable students to build personal responsibility through exploring their own values and beliefs. By looking more deeply into their values, ideas, and experiences, students learn to the greater responsility for others, to explore ways to communicate well, and to solve interpersonal problems. Leadership skills are also a focus; students practice setting personal goals and carrying them through. All 9th and 10th grade students take a core sequence of social Responsibility. The 9th grade course for social questions is what does it means to lead for social responsibility? Participants build communication and conflict – resolution skills and develop tolerance for individual differences. In addition, students explore the definition of leadership. They determine whether they are currently leaders of followers and why. Students discuss articles on good communication, take part in exercises that help them about and practice effective ways to communicate, and learn conflict- resolution techniques. Another set of activity requires students to define social justice and examine whether it’s possible to have a socially just world. This course helps students hone such crucial skills as listening actively, managing anger, learning how to disagree with others, and recognizing the difference between dialogue and debate. In a series lessons, students work in pairs to write a kit about a personal conflict and act it out in front of the class. The teacher assigns two other students to take the role of mediator for each skit, and all four students’ role- play a meditation session. Afterwards, the whole class reflects on and analyzes the mediation process. However, another of reflection, students reflects on how movies advertisements, music, and television perpetuate negative stereotypes. They watch or listen to selections that exempli fy stereotypes and analyze how these media are designed to influence viewers’ perceptions and ideas. = = = = =ACTIVITY #2=

Read the article and answer the following questions: What should students know about the world? (your opinion) What changes do schools nee to make improvement in the area of student's global knowledge? (your opinion) Student should know about the world. World history, world geography, learning different cultural group, negative steoreotypes, culture from the perspectives of the various groups, and respect for the culture. School need to make changes by giving the students a better idea of global knowledge. However, additional research can improve global education practice and find the methods for increasing students global education, influence on cultural development. Use text book tha focus predominantly on the hysical geographic features of the regions.

To sump up, the principal, and the president of the college, and universities have to work with the teachers. For instance, by improving meeting, communication, improvr benefit, and raise as well. This shows that the teacher will make their own effort. By increasing the best interest,and their students. In addition, the teachers will use different method in strategy for students to improve about the world, and global knowledge as well.

Activity #
 * Brown vs. the Broad of Education**

1. **What was the result of plessy vs. Ferguson?**

The result of plessy vs. Ferguson was that even though were separeted they are still considered equal.

2. **What was the result of Brown vs. Broad of Education?**

The result of Broad vs. Broad of Education was that being separated is not equal. Students should have the right to attend a school regardless of their race or nationality. After this all students were welcome in classrooms.

3. **How did the result of plessy vs. Ferguson and Brown vs. Board of Education shape today's educational policies?**

As a result of plessy vs. Ferguson and Brown vs. Board of education they dramatically shaped our education policies today. If it were not fore the fights and struggle of Brown students today may still be segregated and seen as equal. For our nation to be considered an eequal nation for all, that should include equal education. I feel now that our nation has the opportunity to education all people regarless of race, class or gender.

4. **Explain the following terms and practices, and describe how they impacted eductaion in the 1950s and beyond: Segregation:** Is the fact or practice of segregating. This term was heavily used in the 1950's in discussion of education. The education movements discussed wether or not segregation of classrooms was equal or equal.


 * Separate- but - equal:** Systems of segregation giving different " colored only" facilities or services for blacks, with the declaration that the quality of each group's public facilities were supposed ly to remain equal. This was a result of plessy vs. Ferguson thst separate but equal was the movement.


 * Busing and Integration:** is the practice od attempting to integrate schools by assigning students to schools based primarily on race, rather than geographic proximity. The United States are no longer allowed to segragate children by race on buses or children who are physically and mentally disabled. Bused also contributed to the desegragation of schools, even though they were being busy an hour away and not going to the locla school. Busing made sure there was an equal amount of students of each race within a school.


 * Resegregation:** When intrusive, race- based, federally- imposed controls are removed most admissions, employer hiring, and housing patterns are once again freely dtermined by democratic citizen choice. (1) Citizens choose to live in neigborhoods,a nd send their kids to nearby schools for which their real estate tax dollars are paying ; and /r (2) Employers once again begin to hire and promote employees based on skilled an qualifications whithout regard to their race or gender. In other words it means is the re- segregation of schools after they were alredy been desegrated.


 * De facto segregation :** Segregation ( especially in schools) that happens in fact although not required by law. An example of this is often the concentration of African- Americans in ceratin neighborhoods produces neighborhood schools that are predominatly black,or segregated in fact ( de facto), although not by law ( de jure).
