On November 18, 2017, I saw the Richland College Theatre Department’s production of RIDE by Eric Lane. In this essay, I will express what we’re the exceptional things that I saw. Also, I will use terms from what I learned from class, to explain some factors that I interpreted from the play. Starting off, the indicated play, had a humorous but serious mood throughout the program. Dark twists from left to right, to the point where it can be considered a tragic comedy, which means that overall
This is currently my first year enrolling in Richland College, but the experience is just the beginning. The earliest memory of reading was all the syllabus that each class had before school started. I chose to be in college because I’m striving for a better future, instead of working at a retail store and less pay for all the work I’ve contributed. Being an expert reader can help me

Introduction to Human Psychology – PSYC 1111 Written Assignment Unit 4 University of the People Article review on Repressed Memories As stated in OpenStax College (2014) textbook, repressed memories are memories that are so viciously encoded, in the childhood age mostly, that the brain squeezes them into a corner where it will be very difficult for someone to recall them.

“No Homework For Students” Imagine being able to go home and not have to worry about doing homework or a big project to present. There wouldn’t be any stress about school. Instead, you get to lay down and watch your favorite show. Then you could go to the park with your friends and play games, or do anything that interests you. Sounds like an ideal afternoon right? If only all schools never gave homework. Homework is used in a lot of countries and in others there isn’t any. Some people believe
For my preschool observation, I went to little jungle childcare center in Fargo, North Dakota. I knew about this childcare facility, because I have been working there for about seven months. It was truly a different experience to take my break earlier in the day and just observe the class that I usually work in. Through observations, I was able to actually think about why the room is set up the way it is, watch how students and teachers listen and talk to each other, and think about why we do some
The first scenario to be discussed involved a fourteen year-old female. A high school freshman that is obviously concerned about her academic progress, she (and presumably her parents) have noticed that she performs better academically in courses where she has face-to-face instruction rather than in the classes which only convene online. The question is: how would Jean Piaget and B. F. Skinner explain the academic discrepancies between the two different academic presentations? Jean Piaget was a
individual will attain great success and happiness in life or lead a life of misery and despair. Take, for instance, the common scenario of a young, promising athlete who works hard and trains relentlessly throughout his or her life. Then, during college, he or she becomes friends with some poor influences who pressure him or her into drug usage. Eventually, this illegal activity is uncovered and the rising star’s bright vision for the future is totally shattered. In this example, which is far too
Is college worth it for student getting out of high school?

I will also provide the opposite side of the cost of college, there are other options instead of college, and the employment rate of college students. In the next paragraphs I will tell you why I think college isn’t worth it to a high school student anymore
I read a study last week that described middle children as the most forgotten child. It didn’t use those words exactly, but with phrases like “least talkative”, “least bold” and “lack of attention” it’s easy to get the gist. As the second oldest in a family of four kids, I originally agreed with this sentiment. I’ve had more than my fair share of being forgotten by my parents at shops. Twice the amount of all my siblings combined. But, in Charles Bukowski’s poem “Betting on the Muse”, he describes
Globally, as many as 41% students spend 17 hours each week for doing college homework assignments. Another study, which compared the academic pressure among high school students and college students, said that unlike high school, students need to learn most of the syllabus outside the class to crack the semesters. Colleges or universities demand students to spend almost 8 hours in the class and attending lectures. Reports are that they are simultaneously assigned with academic assignments to test
Age The table shows that 75 percent of the student leaders were 15 years old and older. This means that student-leaders were predominated by senior age of high school students. The age group of student leaders belongs to the adolescent age where according to Erik Erickson’s theory of development, it is the stage where development occurs. In Erik Erikson’s Identity vs. Role Confusion, the teenager and young adult must achieve a sense of identity in occupation, sex roles, politics, and religion. This
Most students, during their school years, push themselves forward to succeed. Whether it is taking extracurricular programs or constantly studying, they’re always aiming for that one letter that 'll “determine” their whole future: an ‘A’. Students do this especially during grade 7 and 8, the transition from middle school high school. Students are not limiting their study time as they 're to get into the high school of their choice. “As experience and research confirm, kids who study more tend to
