How can a course in education impact your impression as you enter a career in education?

"In your opinion how would a course in education impact your impression of what to expect personally and professionally as one enter a career in Education?

I am a sophomore and currently taking two courses related to my major (middle grades edu) So far they have been helpful. One is about diversity in the classroom, which will be helpful because America is a melting pot and there will be kids from all types of cultures and ethnicity’s in my class in the future and this is preparing me to deal with them. and the other is about teacher etiquette. Of course that will be helpful for obvious reasons, there are a million things that are inappropriate to do or say around children, somethings that you would not even think. So in conclusion these courses are great.

How would you make Driver Education classes more interesting?

I teach driver education and I want to know if you had a favorite part of driver Education. Do you remember anything in particular that you really liked, or really disliked?

If you was teaching driver education, what would you do to keep the students attention?

Well I am 16 and just recently got my lisence. My favorite part of driver’s ed, was when our teacher brought in beer goggles. He made us wear them and do different tasks such as walking a straight line, catching a tennis ball, pouring water into a cup, etc. It was really fun and interesting, yet still got the point across of how drinking will affect driving.

What type education you need to become a interpreter?

What type education you need to become a interpreter? And What Universitys in California is there to get that education?

I have friends who work as interpreters in Europe. They did their undergraduate degrees in the foreign language they want to work with, while taking a few Linguistics courses as their electives. Then, they did Master’s degrees in Translating. This isn’t my area of interest, and I don’t know of any North American universities that offer graduate programs in Translating.

How is education in Canada unique to the education system United States has?

I need to know teaching methods, their expectations, ethnic diversity and social class that has been proven to work and benefit those students of Canada, and that might help the United States improve their Education system.

me being Canadian as well, i think our own system is the better, we learn bilingualism, where yanks don’t… and we learn American history…. while I don’t think most yanks learn squat about us

What is the best education model for a child today and where can I find it in the world?

There are several options for a child’s education in today’s world. There are variations in curriculum, teaching methodologies, cultural values, goals of education. There are novel options available today such as unschooling and home schooling that were not as common earlier. What then is an ideal Educational system for a child from school through undergraduate and graduation? Where is the best education system available in the world for each of these levels?

Globally Denmark is considered to have the best public education system.

It spends the most on education per member of the population.

If you visit the websites of Danish schools you get a strong feeling of an ordered and caring system.

Other Scandinavian countries also have a good reputation especially Finland.

As far as methodologies go, there are supporters and detractors for every system, so you cannot really compare.

Question for socialists only: How much education should citizens get for free?

Question for socialists only: How much education should citizens get for free? I can’t find the data, but I know I saw a chart showing how countries with low education are very poor and countries with lots of Education are much better off financially. So it stands to logic if a country were to give every citizen a free PhD quality education it’s per capita income would be highest in the world. Would you support this? Why or why not?

to the person who said conservatives want to support welfare, uh, no they don’t

How can education affect a community in a negative way?

I need to know the pros and cons of education in a community. But for now the cons of Education in a community.

Thanks yahoo community.

losing the old traditions and adapting to another way of life, or forming some genius form of a bad government built off of other bad governments that you would learn about in school.

How much education is required to be qualified for Immigration to Canada?

This is in relation to another question I asked.

Under the categories, Provincial Nominee, Skilled Worker, and the new Canadian Experience Class, what is the least amount of education required for Immigration to Canada?

Some people keep saying you need to have at least a 4 year degree or a baccalaureate etc to be qualified, yet the Canada Immigration website says you can qualify with less (2 year diploma, etc). So I’m just curious what should I believe and does anyone else have an idea of what the least amount of education is required?

You can actually qualify with no diploma under provincial nominee. Alberta and BC have semi-skilled options under their PNP’s so if you have experience as a bell hop, hotel room cleaner, kitchen helper, fast Food worker and some others, you are in. You would only need a job offer from said province doing one of the jobs listed and apply for temporary work permit. Once you are working, you can apply to the PNP with the help of your employer and get permanent residency.

For skilled worker, you apply under a points system. You can get points for education, work experience, language skills, age and other things. You are ok to have fewer points in the education category if you have a lot of points in the other ones.

For Canadian experience, you can get it if you are considered a skilled worker. They have a code number for jobs, you can go to http://www5.hrsdc.gc.ca/NOC-CNP/app/index.aspx and enter your job title and you’ll get some matching job titles back with 4 digit numbers. The 2nd number tells you the skill level of the job. If the 2nd letter is 0, 1 or 2, it’s a skilled job. If it’s 4 or 6, it’s a low skilled.

You can also be a skilled worker without having any university, that is if you are a tradesman.

What states consider parents education level in deciding student aid?

The FAFSA application ask for my parents education level? In the instructions it says some states offer aid based on eduction level of parents. Does California use this factor? Is it better to have parents with education or without Education?

Tell the truth!! Then it won’t matter one way or the other.

An Education Trailer

A film by Lone Scherfig starring Carey Mulligan, Peter Sarsgaard, Alfred Molina, and Emma Thompson

Jenny is a bright young girl on the cusp of her 17th birthday who finds herself in a whirlwind romance with a much older David. Prior to meeting David, Jenny was trying to excel in her life by going to a prep school to get into Oxford. Once she sees the lifestyle David can provide, one she never imagined might so easily be hers, she is hooked and thoughts of Oxford go out the window. Then, when things are looking pretty good for Jenny with the dashing (yet a little too smooth) David, the truth hits her like a ton of bricks. Jenny goes from being a bright eyed school girl to a sophisticated young lady and then all the way back to questioning if she really knows who she is at all. Will David be the making of Jenny or her undoing?
