JCCS Academic Language Assessment Week 24 - Online Learning

Is online learning an effective way to educate students? No! I feel this way because in a classroom it is easier for students to learn at their own pace whether they are faster or slower. Many students learn differently in different AREAS of education and with a teacher guiding them many adults and parents feel they could reach their full potential. Also, going to school and being social with other kids your age DIFFERENTIATES from only taking online classes and not being around any other people throughout the whole course. When you're around other students it is easier to ask for help if you need it and there are more people one can use for resources. One last reason people may think online learning is not effective on students is if assigned a project online and a student needs help with the directions no one would be there to help them in their time of need. In a real classroom a teacher is better able to CLARIFY directions and steps for a successful project. Online learning may be good for seniors in high school or college students but for those who have yet to learn a lot of things I think most people would say that the students are better off in a regular school where they can be reach their full potential.

JCCS Academic Language Assessment Week 23 - Dog Fighting

Yes dogfighting should be illegal. This disgusting activity should be prohibited for a wide range of reasons. One reason is it is unfair and inhumane toward the dogs and a lot of U.S. citizens feel that way. This DISTINCT form of gambling should not be tolerated in this country. Another reason why people should not have dogs fighting each other is it is not part of the FORMULA for success when it comes to these animals having a good home and leading a healthy life. I'm sure that the majority of Americans out there would say that if studies were taken dogs who participate in violent fights have less POTENTIAL to help under privileged beings have a better life.For example, becoming a seeing eye dog or a police dog would be a great thing for them to do. I feel like the government should agree to make this exploitation unlawful in this country because it would mean justice for dogs and hope for a better future.

JCCS Academic Language Assessment Week 22

Yes, I do think felons should be allowed to vote. I feel this way because I think in a country like this where everyone matters and is equal everyone should be able to have a say in who calls the shots. I think that at certain times people say that what someone did in the past should affect them forver and that, in some cases is not RELEVANT to what happens now. I also feel that if you do something wrong in your life, the SOURSE of it is really important and a lot of times felons work on their problems and from where it started. This results in the problems no longer consuming their lives giving them the ability to make wise decisions. Adding to this, I personally think that not giving felons the right to vote is too COMPLEX for anyone to go through and very time consuming. I think that everyone has the right to vote for someone to make our country better.
