Socratic Seminar Analysis
During the Socratic seminar 4 questions were presented to the speakers going as follows. The
individual is always more important than society, is true because you need to focus more on one
standpoint than everything around it for equality. The good of the whole society is more critical than
the whims of an individual, I would say part of this is correct because even though thinking of the
big picture is good if you can't even fix the problems of an individual what can you really do. The
laws of the state should be obeyed , as they are constructed by the majority and the consent of the
governed, this can only work as the evil creatures that human possess are finally gone , Individuals
should resist unfairness and wrongs, no matter where they are as if they don't they will just lead to
something like the holocaust. Throughout the seminar many great ideas were presented, people like

As the commentaries have said what improvements of the seminar, I think they missed a few points

transitions and were more comfortable along the way better giving their points on the topics. Also
the fact that they brought hand gestures and better eye contact really help comply what they were

Burning Hearts School Seminar
BURNING HEARTS MINISTRIES – WHAT WE OFFER
Burning Hearts Prayer Culture Seminar
A two day seminar designed for local churches and ministry organizations to reinforce the
foundation of intercessory prayer by igniting a passion for prayer in each individual believer.
Prayer is not intended to be just a part or segment of overall ministry, but is to be a foundation under
all that we do. This seminar is for leaders, department heads, intercessors and all those who are part
of the congregation or ministry. Our goal is to allow the Holy Spirit to take each individual and the
entire ministry to the next exciting level in prayer as we develop an understanding of a culture of
prayer.

At Saint Mary's College, the Collegiate Seminar program is a uniquely designed program for
students to "serve the College's goals for a liberal education [as it] strives to put students in
possession of their powers to think clearly, critically, and collaboratively, and articulate their ideas
effectively–powers that will serve them for the rest of their lives." (SMC Seminar 104 Course
Reader) As a requirement for graduation, all students regardless of what discipline they are in must
complete four courses of seminar. A quite interesting kind of class as it integrates students from
different kinds of discipline, thus, attracting different kinds of perspectives, creating stimulating
conversations about varying topics. Unlike traditional teacher–centered teaching, the Seminar
program invites students to interrogate texts and examine questions that are raised by both the text
and the students through stimulating discussions. Additionally, these discussions are meant to create
an environment "in which the student and the seminar leader engage together in the pursuit of
understanding." (stmarys–ca.edu/collegiate–seminar/seminars) Saint Mary's alumni often have said

The club can accept the commercial advertisement offers to gain the profit, furthermore they try to

Since a consortium of foreign investors has interest in rescuing the business and improving the
performance of the club under the circumstance that the debt is reduced or rescheduled, the club can
try to negotiate with the consortium to agree on a valid contract. The content of contract, for
example, can be that if the team succeeds in wining a certain grade in the next football season, the
consortium should decide to invest in exchange. If the team obtains the investment successfully, it
should first pay a part of the debt of Bank Beta in case of worse situation. Due to the agreement of
the preliminary negotiation with the bondholders, Gamma Bank and trade creditors, the team can
choose to ask for a partial write–off and the rescheduling of the maturity dates. According to the
financial advisor of the team, the current market value of Bank Beta's collateral is lower than the
face value of its secured claim. Therefore, based on the rules relevant to pledge in the property law,

A Seminar Essay
Socratic Seminar Essay There has been a drastic change in the way we perceive the world and this
can alter the way we see each other. We tend to jump onto a bandwagon because it seems easiest or
because of one personal scenario. This is one of the main causes for prejudice and injustice. How a
person reacts to being oppressed may bring out another side of them, but this side is their true self.
This reaction speaks of his or her morals, ethics, and values. To these people, all the perpetrators
appear the same, but it is known that while some may easily go along with it, some may choose to
stand above it all. The concepts referenced to earlier will be soon elaborated on in further analysis as
this essay goes on. It is human nature to assume certain ideas about certain people and it is also
human nature to love and trust wholeheartedly. These two aspects of our species collide when the
terms "prejudice" and "injustice" are involved. If one person had a certain relationship with someone
different than themselves in some way, they will most likely come in contact with someone who
they feel the need to share this event with. This person will most likely be trusted and respected by
the storyteller and listen to/believe everything they say. This is lead to rumors and soon becoming a
prejudice because there might be multiple acting this certain way. Although it does very frequently,

Socratic Seminar Questions
Socratic Seminar Questions 1. Both books can be considered "coming of age" subject matter. How
do Elie and Liesel change? Both Elie and Liesel change throughout their respective books. In Night,
Elie begins as a Jewish youth, almost thirteen, who wants to study the Kabbalah and delve into the
secrets of mysticism. As his life progresses, he witnesses the ugly side of human nature. He loses his
faith in God, for His mercy is nowhere to be found. On the other hand, in the beginning of The Book
Thief, Liesel, a girl not even ten years of age, is placed in a foster home after being traumatized by
the death of her brother. There, she experiences love and loss, joy and pain. She discovers the power
of words, and how, just like life, they are both ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
In Night, People are starving, and many will do anything it takes to abate their hunger, to survive.
Once, Elie witnessed a son killing his father for some bread. In The Book Thief, food is scarce, and
although its absence does not lead Liesel anywhere close to killing, it does cause her to steal. On the
other hand, food can also be shared. Elie gives up his rations for his father even though he will
probably die, and Liesel's family shares the little food they have with Max despite the fact that they
are already taking a huge risk by simply hiding him in their home. 4. Is there a different attitude
toward children in both books versus the children of today? Discuss the role that youth play in each.
There is a completely different attitude towards children today, especially due to technology and the
altered perspective of the world. In Night, the horrors done to the Jewish are exponentially worse
when done to the youth. Infants are burned alive, an angelic child is hanged, and Elie himself is
merely a teenager when he is forced into a concentration camp. Forced to endure such hardships at
such a young age, he is left traumatized. In The Book Thief, Liesel, in her youth, sees the world
differently from adults. She steals, fights, and loves. As a child, she is passionate and filled with
adrenaline. 5. Examine the role of music in both Night and The Book Thief. What does music

My Career Path For A Teacher
On October 21, 2015 my cooperating teacher mocked me in front of my class. You see I was the
student teacher in a second grade classroom at Charles Olbon Elementary School. After class I went
home, locked myself in my bedroom and I started pondering my future and my career path. I
thought I would not be a good teacher, why did I choose this career path? I choose this path because
my friends and family saw me a teacher, but I guess they do not know the real me. In 2003 at the
age of ten years old I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. My father saw me down at the kitchen
table and strongly advised me to go into an "easy" profession. He instructed me to become a teacher,
therefore I mindlessly agreed to his requests. Then when I entered college, I did not enjoy the
teaching classes and I told my friends, family, and fellow teachers. However everyone told me the
similar line: "you will make a great teacher, you're just nervous cause you're almost graduating, just
stick it out and get your degree." I listened to others while ignoring my inner voice and passion.
Now fast forward to October 23–25th I ended up skipping student teaching to go into the city for

The Contemporary Historical-Jesus By Elisabeth Schüssler...
The contemporary "Historical–Jesus" is in a kyriarchal structure of domination which belittles
feminism and Judaism. In Elisabeth Schüssler Fiorenza's book, Jesus and the Politics of
Interpretation, Fiorenza seeks to break the kyriarchal context in which Jesus is and "foster an
identity crisis in the scientific self–understanding of the Historical–Jesus scholarship" (Fiorenza 2).
Fiorenza, a professor at Harvard Divinity school, specializes in scripture and interpretation from a
feminist perspective. She has noticed masculine language which dominates in the construction of the
Historical–Jesus and attempts to challenge this language to reform the context of the quest for the
Historical–Jesus so it is all inclusive. Jesus and the Politics of Interpretation is not another book
which seeks to describe who the Historical–Jesus is; rather, "it is a sustained rhetorical inquiry into
the scholarly discourses that produce the Historical–Jesus as an article of trade and an object of
spiritual consumption in the global capitalist market". (Fiorenza 13) The Historical Jesus: A Guide
for the Perplexed by Helen K. Bond is a supplement to Fiorenza as it is full of the quests which
Fiorenza desires to challenge. The Historical–Jesus as a "symbolic scholarly construct and as an
ideologically produced subject" allows elite men to be in a position which subordinates woman

Seminar On Jason
In response to the seminar on Jason's section, I would like to look at Jason and his car. Jason
purchased his car with the money that his mother had given him to invest in the store. Jason
obviously sees himself as an astute businessman. However, Jason must prefer the automobile to
business as he pursues the purchase of a car rather than a stable career as part–owner of the store
where he is an employee. There is something about owning a car that, to Jason, means more than
owning part of a business. It is as if after losing the chance to have a position at the bank due to
Caddy's divorce Jason has found his lost manhood in the car. To achieve the control and
independence that he seems to want so badly, Jason must purchase a car and a certain kind of car.
The reader knows that Jason does not own a Ford, "I think too much of my car; I'm not going to
hammer it to pieces like it was a ford" (238). To Jason, a Ford is obviously a cheap car and his more
expensive car is necessary for him to attempt to retain the class status of the Compson's that has
dramatically declined since the Civil War. There is, however, a conflict between Jason and his car.

everyone in the group. This effected many people such as Anne herself because she ended up taking
her life because she did not the trust the group also the whole group need to stay more alarmed just
in case anyone found out about their skills.
Pratish– Betrayal was also the result when aunt Harriet asks to borrow her sisters' baby to receive a
certificate for normality, the sister refuses furiously showing no empathy or kindness. This is seen
when Aunt Harriet enters David's moms' room and begs to borrow Petra in exchange for some days.
David's mom cold heartedly replies "In all my life. I have never heard anything so outrageous... To
think that I should led you my own child" This quote is important because it shows that Aunt
Harriet's sister is so hateful towards deviants and blasphemies that she would not even bother
helping her own sister. It also shows that Aunt Harriet and her sister don't have a strong family
relationship. This develops the thesis because it shows poor relationships are the results of heart
breaking betrayals.
Misty– Therefore it is clear that betrayal and loyalty is depended on the kind of relationship you
have with the person. For example this was proven when David attempts to save Sophie from Allan
even though it was a great risk.

Socratic Seminar On The Hobbit
During a Socratic Seminar about the Hobbit by J.R.R Tolkien, many interesting topics were
discussed. We spent the majority of the time talking about the main character Bilbo. During the
beginning of the book, Bilbo was a very quiet and reserved hobbit. When there was a chance of
going on an adventure, though, Bilbo ran out the front door without a second though. We ended up
discussing why he did this. People said that Bilbo ran out for the adventure for a number of reasons,
however I thought that he did it on pure impulse, and I made sure to make that opinion know. I think
that, because of the opinions of the other hobbits, Bilbo was convincing himself that adventures
were foolhardy and not worth the effort. However, Bilbo actually loves adventures,

Biology 545 Senior Seminar
Fresh from Truman, just starting out, I must admit I was at a loss on what to do with my Biology
studies. Furthermore, in this economy I had doubts as to whether I could obtain a job lucrative
enough to support myself with the degree once I received it. This is why, heartbroken and
disappointed as I was to have learned that I had not received my degree, I consciously put it off for a
while until I figured out exactly what I wanted to do. It turned out that what I learned majoring in
Biology not only gave me the tools to save my own life but helped me to do what I believe I was put

Although several Houston neighborhoods living below the poverty line came to mind, I treated this
decision like a scientist would, I relied on research. I discovered 130 key indicators of poverty as
presented in the "Growing Up in Houston 2012–2014" edition. I narrowed those down to the five
indicators I believe would most identify the areas that both needed Seasonal Harvest and would be
receptive to the idea if given the information. I looked at infant mortality rates, the number of
uninsured children, family annual income, education level of parents, and the number of free lunch
program recipients. I then compared those indicators to the neighborhood specific indexes provided
by the website, City Data to determine the neighborhoods that the company would pilot in. After
looking at all the data, only three neighborhoods in Houston had medium incomes below the poverty
line: Kashmere Gardens, Trinity Gardens, and Sunnyside with an average income of $26,419.00.
These neighborhoods also have a high population of people with less than a high school education

During the Socratic seminar, I heard a lot of interesting common things about the immigration

Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen – on immigrant or non–immigrant visas–––" (CNN) In

Senior Seminar Project
For my senior seminar project, I wish to complete a community event. With about 10 kids from the
Youth Center on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 3:30–4:15, I plan to have a t–ball clinic. I
plan to use the field at the Bow Youth Center as a location for my clinic, in which there will be 3
different stations– hitting, throwing, and fielding. The stations will be run on Mondays and
Wednesdays, and on Fridays, there will be a t–ball game in which kids will be able to put their

are the positive effects of playing sports at a young age. I feel like this topic is important because
sports have always been prevalent in society, but in the past decade or so, there has been more of a

For group 1, Andrew Loftis started the discussion with the question, "What conflicts were presented
in your book?" Thus, he answered his question and goes on to discuss the main character of his
book, Breaking Beautiful and explained what the main character, Allie had to face after being
involved in a car accident. He commented how the character's physical appearance has changed due
to the accident and how the death of her boyfriend has affected her. While explaining the conflict,
Andrew also summarized the plot, giving the group some background information about his novel.
After he talked, immediately, Nick responded and talked about the conflict in his book. He noted

As for the weaknesses and strengths, one of the biggest weaknesses I've noticed was that there was
not a smooth transition presented during the majority of the seminar. None of the students, except
two at the very end of the discussion used "I agree" or "I disagree" when it was their turn to speak.
This made it confusing for me, the audience because it seemed like what each student was saying
had no connection to what the previous student was saying. Another weakness I've noticed was that
many of the students used fill–in words such as "um" and "like". I had a hard time trying to
understand my classmates's ideas and what they were trying to say because they kept using "um"
and "like" in between words and sentences. In addition, as I mentioned above, a lot of the questions
evolved around the conflict of the story. This became repetitive and I felt like many of the students
repeated their answers. The last weakness I noticed was that nobody, except Andrew used direct

The seminar that was conducted among the students in the IB English class focused on the novel "A
Prayer for Owen Meany" and the film "Simon Birch". Upon this two topic, the students were able to

Writing in Mathematics Seminar
Mathematics is different from some other disciplines such as art and music in that it builds upon
itself. It has traditionally been based on a series of axioms and theorems derived from these axioms,
from which more theorems can be derived. Therefore, when an essay asks us to eliminate a concept
fundamental to mathematics, it is difficult to make a choice since each concept has its merits and is
necessary for understanding concepts that build upon it. This essay, although not feasible to
implement in the real world, accomplishes the goals of a Writing in Mathematics seminar, which are
to encourage students to think creatively about mathematics, increase the students' skills in writing
effective arguments, and show the students that there ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The ultimate goal of this seminar is to enhance our writing capabilities, with mathematics as the
topic of discussion. This assignment challenges us to think about the arguments of the opposing
viewpoints, because both sides are necessary for mathematics to function properly. We have to
anticipate the arguments of the other side and build a strong case against those points–thereby
encouraging us to write more persuasively than a typical assignment in this class would. In my
essay, I chose to eliminate the triangle. I had to take into consideration that other people could argue
triangles are important in engineering, and I built an argument on how triangles are not necessary
with some creative uses of circles. This exercise in counterargument allowed me to practice different
persuasive techniques. The higher level thinking required by us is twofold–creative workarounds to
mathematical concepts and advanced methods of persuasion. While this assignment does challenge
our writing abilities, it could do more. We are offered a choice of three topics to write about, so we
are free to pick a topic that is the most comfortable for us. A good writer can create an argument for
either side of any topic. If the assignment did not give us any choices, we would be challenged to
write about something that we are not necessarily comfortable writing about. Students who write in
their comfort zone will not try to improve their writing

Domestic Violence Seminar
On Thursday night I went to the "Shatter the Silence, Stop the Violence" seminar by the Sexual
Assault and Violence Education (SAVE) Committee. During the seminar I learned about several
parts of dating and domestic violence, as well as healthy, unhealthy, and abusive relationships. I was
familiar with many of these topics, but hadn't gone so far in depth with them before.
First of all, dating violence and domestic violence are completely different things. Dating violence is
when physical violence is used against or between one's significant other and oneself. Meanwhile,
domestic violence is violence against or between someone one lives with and oneself. For example,
dating violence is happening if one's boyfriend or girlfriend were to slap one's face without consent.
Domestic violence can occur between parents and children, husbands and wives, or even
roommates. So if I were to slap my ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Everyone had to assess the same statements, and circle either "comfortable" or "not comfortable."
Just about every response was divided between "comfortable" and "not comfortable," except for
"your partner takes you out to dinner," to which everyone responded with "comfortable." This
demonstrates that different people are comfortable or uncomfortable with different things,
depending on how they were raised and past dating experience. Thus, the lists of signs of healthy
and unhealthy relationships will not be completely accurate for different relationships.
I haven't had great experiences dating. While I won't go into details here, I feel I tend to be more
sensitive in my answers to the statements about what I am comfortable with in a relationship. Even
with that past relationship being done for over a year now, it still makes it so I'm not interested in

Harmony's Seminar Sparknotes
After watching the documentary for Harmony's seminar, I simply could not brainstorm about
anything else. The chilling display of female repression is all that I have been able to think about. I
have never seen something that made me feel physically ill before and the after–effects of watching
this have not led up. I am full of a deep mixture of rage and grief when reflecting upon the systems
deeply embedded within the fabric of India's culture. Though it must be said that brutality is not
limited to the borders of India as Aboriginal women suffer in present–day Canada.
Almost equal with the women of India, Aboriginal women have been struggling against racism,
sexism, and domestic violence since the dawn of colonialism (explorers brought with them their
patriarchal social codes and beliefs). They are faced with a double–burden for being female and a
minority. Emma LaRocque, a Metis woman and professor of Native Studies at the University of
Manitoba writes, ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
I was shocked when one of the lawyers said something along the lines of 'Oh, we have a great
culture, and in our culture there is no place for females' but anyone who believes this who has a
mother/sister/daughter is essentially turning a blind eye to what happened and are perpetuating the
male–oriented status quo. Children in India and on First Nation reserves cannot continue to be raised
believing that it is okay to disrespect, beat, rape, or kill women. The brutality shown in the film
requires an extreme sense of malignancy that could only be found in the deranged. I think you can
educate men to respect women and educate women on self–defense but a great deal of the
education/socio–economic background talk is of no use because it really comes down to basic

Jesus Seminar Critique
One critique to the Jesus Seminar was the motives behind their work. The media often portrayed the
group to be comprised mostly of former Christians, attacking hardest on the group's leader Robert
Funk and cochair John Crossan. Critics went as far to describe their meetings as having "the air of a
village atheists' convention" (Powell, 110). Such an allegation gave rise to the popular belief that the
motives of the scholars were to get revenge on institutionalized religion for not being accepting to
them. I believe the media was too quick to judge the motives of the scholars by attacking their
backgrounds. Just because their work was controversial doesn't mean it was subjective with
underlying personal vendettas. It seems unlikely that a group ... Show more content on
Helpwriting.net ...
The most rebutted aspect of the work done by the scholars was their idiosyncrasy to equate
"unverifiable" with "unauthentic." Most scholars who study the elements attribute to the life of Jesus
stand on common ground when it comes to the realization that many of the sayings and deeds
associated to Jesus in the Gospels lack sufficient evidence to establish authenticity. However, to
many scholars insufficient evidence means an element cannot be verified, and therefore should not
be deemed as historical. In contrast, the Jesus Seminar went beyond this scope and maintained that
Jesus did not say or did not do things that cannot be authenticated by evidence. For example, it is
widely accepted that there is very little evidence to support whether or not Jesus was born from his
virgin mother, Mary. As a result, this element of his life has just been something that one would
believe on the foundation of religious faith rather than historical science. However, the Jesus
Seminar applied a post–Enlightenment historical scientific view to this element in order to
determine authenticity. Under this assessment, they determined not only what is confirmable but
what also is scientifically possible. Therefore, the scholars deemed the virgin birth as non–historical,
concluding that Jesus had been conceived through normal sexual intercourse between a male and
female because it fit the paradigm known today. This stance held by the Jesus Seminar "turn[s] a
corner in the traditional understanding of the relationship that faith and philosophy bear to science
and history" (Powell, 115). For this reason, I reject the integrity of their work. I believe faith and
philosophy should be kept separate of science and history, unless the two aim to support one
another. Rescinding concepts of faith simply because they do fall within current scientific
boundaries is illegitimate. The major flaw of the Jesus Seminar is their

what Nokia needs to do is to protect and expand its market shares. And being more of a market
challenger in developed markets, Nokia needs to keep transforming their product to meet the new
demands ands not to lose their market shares to others. Ben & Jerry's

values is the foundation of its marketing strategy. The product and promotion of marketing mix in
Ben & Jerry's are good examples of how their company values affect their marketing strategy. Their
social mission sets the company apart from simple cause–related markets. By promoting and
sticking to its social values, customers are paying for more than just the ice–cream but also the idea

Harris quoted another author to say, "these linguistic and stylistic considerations, when weighed
against the undoubted resemblances between the first 20 chapters and chapter 21, it offers no
sufficient information that would lead one to believe that chapter 21 was written by any other
author." Harris contends that most scholars, do not make the decision for or against the identity of
the authorship based on the stylistic or linguistic evidence, but rather, that argument is made on the
basis of the content or logical argument flow. Harris uses the knowledge of other scholars regarding
chapter 21 of the Gospel of John. He highlights another scholar when viewing the idea if chapter 21
was just an addendum to the Gospel of John or is it an item of necessity. He quotes S. Smalley to
say this, "Smalley demonstrates that chapter 21 is not as much of an addendum as some believe, and
that it does in fact provide a necessary conclusion to the Fourth Gospel, which does not merely end
with the confession by Thomas, but offer a repetitive emphasis that the disciples will continue the
witness of Jesus even after He has ascended to His Father, in addition to carrying out the mission

In the module for week two there were several ideas that you can implement in your classroom. For
instance you could try the walk and talk discussion strategy. This strategy simply means that the
students read a selected piece of literature and have a small–group discussion about teacher–created
topics posted around the room. The resources/idea for this strategy includes identifying main ideas
and develop 4–5 questions pertaining to the ideas. Afterword's you type up questions to be printed
out and placed around the room. You then should secure large sheets of butcher paper or whiteboard
space for the students to write down the groups' ideas, once this task is completed make sure you
have supplied each group with dry erase or regular felt tip pens. Aside from this wonderful strategy
there was another traffic strategy that was discussed it was the 4–2–1 method. Students generate
four big ideas from the text. Students then pair with someone else and share their four big ideas.
After sharing their ideas, they must decide which ones from their lists are the 2 big ideas. That pair
then pairs up with another pair and they share their 2 big ideas. That group of 4 must then determine
which of the ideas on their list is the 1 big main idea. Each group ... Show more content on

However as a future teacher I want to utilize hands on methods that get the students engaged in the

Jesus Seminar Thesis
Jesus is most definitely a symbol of hope, however, we need a foundation for our faith. Having
evidence about Jesus' life, teaching, and resurrection provides a firm foundation for our faith. The
"Jesus Seminar" states that the Jesus of faith is merely just a symbol of hope that provides people
with a good feeling and a sense of security, but it's not the real Jesus of history. Contrary to this
statement, the Jesus of faith is the opposite and much more than the views of those from the "Jesus
Seminar." Much of the historical evidence points to a historical Jesus who did many supernatural
acts throughout his lifetime. As Boyd says, "Jesus is not a symbol of anything unless he's root in

The Socratic Seminars
One topic that went quite unexplored during the Socratic Seminars was how we all individually
incorporated quotes seamlessly into our essays. As a result, I would like point out that there are
multiple ways to seamlessly fit quotes into sentences, such as informing the reader about how the
character feels about the event, what exactly the character is talking about, and beginning the
sentence containing the quote with paraphrasing. For example, I included as an example in my
essay, "Secondly, Ashleigh questions her father's plan on page 4 of Ashes, ' "That's a lot of money.

Socratic Seminar Analysis

  • 1. Socratic Seminar Analysis During the Socratic seminar 4 questions were presented to the speakers going as follows. The individual is always more important than society, is true because you need to focus more on one standpoint than everything around it for equality. The good of the whole society is more critical than the whims of an individual, I would say part of this is correct because even though thinking of the big picture is good if you can't even fix the problems of an individual what can you really do. The laws of the state should be obeyed , as they are constructed by the majority and the consent of the governed, this can only work as the evil creatures that human possess are finally gone , Individuals should resist unfairness and wrongs, no matter where they are as if they don't they will just lead to something like the holocaust. Throughout the seminar many great ideas were presented, people like ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Besides that one mistake small mistakes were brought in but too small of a subject. I just really agree with everyone's point of view on these topics and can't really point out what's wrong when it's so thoroughly thought out and so fluently connected to their facts. As the commentaries have said what improvements of the seminar, I think they missed a few points that I would like to add first would be multiple people started talking along with their academic transitions and were more comfortable along the way better giving their points on the topics. Also the fact that they brought hand gestures and better eye contact really help comply what they were trying to say.Surprisingly I never really saw or heard any lacking conversations between the discussants.

Burning Hearts School Seminar BURNING HEARTS MINISTRIES – WHAT WE OFFER Burning Hearts Prayer Culture Seminar A two day seminar designed for local churches and ministry organizations to reinforce the foundation of intercessory prayer by igniting a passion for prayer in each individual believer. Prayer is not intended to be just a part or segment of overall ministry, but is to be a foundation under all that we do. This seminar is for leaders, department heads, intercessors and all those who are part of the congregation or ministry. Our goal is to allow the Holy Spirit to take each individual and the entire ministry to the next exciting level in prayer as we develop an understanding of a culture of prayer. It is designed to be held on two evening meetings with two daytime ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... I would be glad to meet with main leaders and prayer leaders to discuss all facets of the prayer ministry. For many years I've functioned in the role of pastoral oversight for prayer ministry in local church and could help bring some insight on prayer ministry for existing organizations, churches and especially for new church plants. The seminar and the consulting are both on an honorarium or offering basis. Burning Hearts School of Intercession In 2009 we began the Burning Hearts School of Intercession as a two day training. Many have assumed that this training has been just for Intercessors, but it is actually designed to bring the all Christ–followers into an understanding what intercessory prayer is and how we really cannot get by without connecting with God in prayer. Here's an overview of the training weekend: Session 1 – The Importance of Intercession Session 2 – Effective Personal Intercession Session 3 – Onsite Strategic Intercession Session 4 – Intercession and ...

I didn't really know how I got into the class because I know my writing isn't as great as most kids in my class. AP Seminar involves a lot of hard work, and I felt as if my writing wasn't good enough. Out of my 5 essays from last year, I only got one A. That one A didn't make me feel smart though, and I didn't understand why. Writing this now is difficult for me because I don't know how to explain things in my own words. I heard a lot about how hard this class is and about the speeches. I can't stand talking about speeches because that is my greatest fear.

  • 13. Collegiate Seminar Essay At Saint Mary's College, the Collegiate Seminar program is a uniquely designed program for students to "serve the College's goals for a liberal education [as it] strives to put students in possession of their powers to think clearly, critically, and collaboratively, and articulate their ideas effectively–powers that will serve them for the rest of their lives." (SMC Seminar 104 Course Reader) As a requirement for graduation, all students regardless of what discipline they are in must complete four courses of seminar. A quite interesting kind of class as it integrates students from different kinds of discipline, thus, attracting different kinds of perspectives, creating stimulating conversations about varying topics. Unlike traditional teacher–centered teaching, the Seminar program invites students to interrogate texts and examine questions that are raised by both the text and the students through stimulating discussions. Additionally, these discussions are meant to create an environment "in which the student and the seminar leader engage together in the pursuit of understanding."

Where were you when the Great Bitch, that Sphinx who sang her deadly puzzles outside this city and who needed the art of a genuine seer to answer those puzzles, where were you then? Why did you not save the city then? Where were your gods then? Where were your birds? It was I!

And I say to you then, old man, that in my mind I have you as one of those who has helped in Laius' murder! Yes, old man! You have worked with them. Perhaps even you, yourself, have committed the deed! Indeed, if you had eyes that could see I would have said you did the deed all alone!" (Sophocles 346–350). When engaging with the blind prophet, Oedipus attempts to pry the truth out of Tiresias by accusing him, Tiresias of the murder. He thinks that if he starts making accusations towards Tiresias, he will in turn tell the truth so that people don't start hearing this rumor. 5. "Time, Oedipus, Time will show you the truth in this matter. Innocence takes time to be revealed; guilt can be announced far too quickly." (Sophocles 614–615). Creon accuses Oedipus of making up fantasies. He tells Oedipus that wild accusations will only make the truth come out, which resulted in the truth coming out eventually. 6. "Let me tell you the truth, wife. As I got to that spot, I came across a herald and a man on a horsedrawn carriage. Both, man and herald came and tried to push me out of the way. In a very rough manner. I got so angry that, in the fight, I hit the driver of the carriage.

The club can accept the commercial advertisement offers to gain the profit, furthermore they try to raise the price of the related products of players or the team to gain more revenues from the sales. Since a consortium of foreign investors has interest in rescuing the business and improving the performance of the club under the circumstance that the debt is reduced or rescheduled, the club can try to negotiate with the consortium to agree on a valid contract. The content of contract, for example, can be that if the team succeeds in wining a certain grade in the next football season, the consortium should decide to invest in exchange. If the team obtains the investment successfully, it should first pay a part of the debt of Bank Beta in case of worse situation. Due to the agreement of the preliminary negotiation with the bondholders, Gamma Bank and trade creditors, the team can choose to ask for a partial write–off and the rescheduling of the maturity dates. According to the financial advisor of the team, the current market value of Bank Beta's collateral is lower than the face value of its secured claim. Therefore, based on the rules relevant to pledge in the property law, the team can meet its liabilities by letting Bank Beta coping with the pledge. 8) At last, if all the above possible solutions can not change the situation of the Gladiators FC club, the club can take into account asking for ...

  • 29. A Seminar Essay Socratic Seminar Essay There has been a drastic change in the way we perceive the world and this can alter the way we see each other. We tend to jump onto a bandwagon because it seems easiest or because of one personal scenario. This is one of the main causes for prejudice and injustice. How a person reacts to being oppressed may bring out another side of them, but this side is their true self. This reaction speaks of his or her morals, ethics, and values. To these people, all the perpetrators appear the same, but it is known that while some may easily go along with it, some may choose to stand above it all. The concepts referenced to earlier will be soon elaborated on in further analysis as this essay goes on. It is human nature to assume certain ideas about certain people and it is also human nature to love and trust wholeheartedly. These two aspects of our species collide when the terms "prejudice" and "injustice" are involved. If one person had a certain relationship with someone different than themselves in some way, they will most likely come in contact with someone who they feel the need to share this event with. This person will most likely be trusted and respected by the storyteller and listen to/believe everything they say. This is lead to rumors and soon becoming a prejudice because there might be multiple acting this certain way. Although it does very frequently, this should not lead people to jump to conclusions about a general group. This soon leads to ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Both Elie and Liesel change throughout their respective books. In Night, Elie begins as a Jewish youth, almost thirteen, who wants to study the Kabbalah and delve into the secrets of mysticism. As his life progresses, he witnesses the ugly side of human nature. He loses his faith in God, for His mercy is nowhere to be found. On the other hand, in the beginning of The Book Thief, Liesel, a girl not even ten years of age, is placed in a foster home after being traumatized by the death of her brother. There, she experiences love and loss, joy and pain. She discovers the power of words, and how, just like life, they are both ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... In Night, People are starving, and many will do anything it takes to abate their hunger, to survive. Once, Elie witnessed a son killing his father for some bread. In The Book Thief, food is scarce, and although its absence does not lead Liesel anywhere close to killing, it does cause her to steal. On the other hand, food can also be shared. Elie gives up his rations for his father even though he will probably die, and Liesel's family shares the little food they have with Max despite the fact that they are already taking a huge risk by simply hiding him in their home. 4. Is there a different attitude toward children in both books versus the children of today? Discuss the role that youth play in each. There is a completely different attitude towards children today, especially due to technology and the altered perspective of the world. In Night, the horrors done to the Jewish are exponentially worse when done to the youth. Infants are burned alive, an angelic child is hanged, and Elie himself is merely a teenager when he is forced into a concentration camp. Forced to endure such hardships at such a young age, he is left traumatized. In The Book Thief, Liesel, in her youth, sees the world differently from adults. She steals, fights, and loves. As a child, she is passionate and filled with adrenaline. 5. Examine the role of music in both Night and The Book Thief. What does music ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

By attending the HOBY seminar, I will broaden my intuition to solve issues and overcome barriers. I will learn to accept responsibility to drive my community and myself forward. Not only will this program aid me to thrive in my current activities, it will also enhance my ability to inspire others to be leaders and take action in their lives as well. I believe that I should be chosen to represent Cranbrook in the seminar not because I possess a set of strong qualities, but because of my enthusiasm for developing and utilizing these leadership skills. To me, being a true leader is to take all my skills and return them to my community in an even better way. I'm dedicated to helping those less fortunate than me and service is my biggest ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... I've been to 4 international schools and met people from all across the globe. In the HOBY seminar, I'll be able to meet other leaders from multiple backgrounds to discover different leadership skills. I'll use my newfound skills in Business Club to make my goal as a future business leader possible. I'm intrigued to develop my communication skills and learn how to build better relationships in order to strengthen the outcome of cooperation. Although I'm new to Cranbrook this year, I'm determined to contribute to the Cranbrook community likewise.

  • 53. My Career Path For A Teacher On October 21, 2015 my cooperating teacher mocked me in front of my class. You see I was the student teacher in a second grade classroom at Charles Olbon Elementary School. After class I went home, locked myself in my bedroom and I started pondering my future and my career path. I thought I would not be a good teacher, why did I choose this career path? I choose this path because my friends and family saw me a teacher, but I guess they do not know the real me. In 2003 at the age of ten years old I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. My father saw me down at the kitchen table and strongly advised me to go into an "easy" profession. He instructed me to become a teacher, therefore I mindlessly agreed to his requests. Then when I entered college, I did not enjoy the teaching classes and I told my friends, family, and fellow teachers. However everyone told me the similar line: "you will make a great teacher, you're just nervous cause you're almost graduating, just stick it out and get your degree." I listened to others while ignoring my inner voice and passion. Now fast forward to October 23–25th I ended up skipping student teaching to go into the city for Robert McKee's Story and Storynomics seminar class. I consider myself a happy go lucky person who is a positive thinker and dreamer however on this particular day when my mom dropped me off at the bus station I was in a depressed state of mind.

  • 69. The Contemporary Historical-Jesus By Elisabeth Schüssler... The contemporary "Historical–Jesus" is in a kyriarchal structure of domination which belittles feminism and Judaism. In Elisabeth Schüssler Fiorenza's book, Jesus and the Politics of Interpretation, Fiorenza seeks to break the kyriarchal context in which Jesus is and "foster an identity crisis in the scientific self–understanding of the Historical–Jesus scholarship" (Fiorenza 2). Fiorenza, a professor at Harvard Divinity school, specializes in scripture and interpretation from a feminist perspective. She has noticed masculine language which dominates in the construction of the Historical–Jesus and attempts to challenge this language to reform the context of the quest for the Historical–Jesus so it is all inclusive. Jesus and the Politics of Interpretation is not another book which seeks to describe who the Historical–Jesus is; rather, "it is a sustained rhetorical inquiry into the scholarly discourses that produce the Historical–Jesus as an article of trade and an object of spiritual consumption in the global capitalist market". (Fiorenza 13) The Historical Jesus: A Guide for the Perplexed by Helen K. Bond is a supplement to Fiorenza as it is full of the quests which Fiorenza desires to challenge. The Historical–Jesus as a "symbolic scholarly construct and as an ideologically produced subject" allows elite men to be in a position which subordinates woman (Fiorenza 15).

As a freshman trying to find my way at the University of Georgia, it seemed that I was going backwards compared to my peers and my grieving put more of a strain on my will to continue my studies. Pursuing any actions for bettering myself or my counterparts tended to feel overwhelming. Feelings of loneliness engulfed my state of mind, but what was most unbearable was my realization that I had no idea of how I was going to overcome this. I usually have a plan of what I would like to accomplish and who I strive to become, but at this stage of life, I felt as lost as ever. As months passed, I had the opportunity to attend a seminar on education and poverty. Although I was not interested in education, I attended to gain information for a class project. Through this seminar, I found the beginning of passion that I did not know I possessed. The presenters exposed the significant fact that students often times do not finish school due to their lacking in resources to finish. These self– and material doubts affect students at every level of education. While focusing on my own challenges, I lost sight of the present, daunting challenges that others, whether they be my peers or younger students, face on a daily basis.

Jason purchased his car with the money that his mother had given him to invest in the store. Jason obviously sees himself as an astute businessman. However, Jason must prefer the automobile to business as he pursues the purchase of a car rather than a stable career as part–owner of the store where he is an employee. There is something about owning a car that, to Jason, means more than owning part of a business. It is as if after losing the chance to have a position at the bank due to Caddy's divorce Jason has found his lost manhood in the car. To achieve the control and independence that he seems to want so badly, Jason must purchase a car and a certain kind of car. The reader knows that Jason does not own a Ford, "I think too much of my car; I'm not going to hammer it to pieces like it was a ford" (238). To Jason, a Ford is obviously a cheap car and his more expensive car is necessary for him to attempt to retain the class status of the Compson's that has dramatically declined since the Civil War. There is, however, a conflict between Jason and his car. Jason's sense of smell is as sensitive as his brothers'. It is not the smell of trees, death, or ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

Pratish– Betrayal was also the result when aunt Harriet asks to borrow her sisters' baby to receive a certificate for normality, the sister refuses furiously showing no empathy or kindness. This is seen when Aunt Harriet enters David's moms' room and begs to borrow Petra in exchange for some days. David's mom cold heartedly replies "In all my life. I have never heard anything so outrageous... To think that I should led you my own child" This quote is important because it shows that Aunt Harriet's sister is so hateful towards deviants and blasphemies that she would not even bother helping her own sister. It also shows that Aunt Harriet and her sister don't have a strong family relationship. This develops the thesis because it shows poor relationships are the results of heart breaking betrayals.

Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The ultimate goal of this seminar is to enhance our writing capabilities, with mathematics as the topic of discussion. This assignment challenges us to think about the arguments of the opposing viewpoints, because both sides are necessary for mathematics to function properly. We have to anticipate the arguments of the other side and build a strong case against those points–thereby encouraging us to write more persuasively than a typical assignment in this class would. In my essay, I chose to eliminate the triangle. I had to take into consideration that other people could argue triangles are important in engineering, and I built an argument on how triangles are not necessary with some creative uses of circles. This exercise in counterargument allowed me to practice different persuasive techniques. The higher level thinking required by us is twofold–creative workarounds to mathematical concepts and advanced methods of persuasion. While this assignment does challenge our writing abilities, it could do more.

During the seminar I learned about several parts of dating and domestic violence, as well as healthy, unhealthy, and abusive relationships. I was familiar with many of these topics, but hadn't gone so far in depth with them before. First of all, dating violence and domestic violence are completely different things. Dating violence is when physical violence is used against or between one's significant other and oneself. Meanwhile, domestic violence is violence against or between someone one lives with and oneself. For example, dating violence is happening if one's boyfriend or girlfriend were to slap one's face without consent. Domestic violence can occur between parents and children, husbands and wives, or even roommates. So if I were to slap my ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Everyone had to assess the same statements, and circle either "comfortable" or "not comfortable."

Thus, the lists of signs of healthy and unhealthy relationships will not be completely accurate for different relationships. I haven't had great experiences dating. While I won't go into details here, I feel I tend to be more sensitive in my answers to the statements about what I am comfortable with in a relationship.

The media often portrayed the group to be comprised mostly of former Christians, attacking hardest on the group's leader Robert Funk and cochair John Crossan. Critics went as far to describe their meetings as having "the air of a village atheists' convention" (Powell, 110). Such an allegation gave rise to the popular belief that the motives of the scholars were to get revenge on institutionalized religion for not being accepting to them. I believe the media was too quick to judge the motives of the scholars by attacking their backgrounds. Just because their work was controversial doesn't mean it was subjective with underlying personal vendettas. It seems unlikely that a group ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The most rebutted aspect of the work done by the scholars was their idiosyncrasy to equate "unverifiable" with "unauthentic." Most scholars who study the elements attribute to the life of Jesus stand on common ground when it comes to the realization that many of the sayings and deeds associated to Jesus in the Gospels lack sufficient evidence to establish authenticity. However, to many scholars insufficient evidence means an element cannot be verified, and therefore should not be deemed as historical. In contrast, the Jesus Seminar went beyond this scope and maintained that Jesus did not say or did not do things that cannot be authenticated by evidence. For example, it is widely accepted that there is very little evidence to support whether or not Jesus was born from his virgin mother, Mary. As a result, this element of his life has just been something that one would believe on the foundation of religious faith rather than historical science. However, the Jesus Seminar applied a post–Enlightenment historical scientific view to this element in order to determine authenticity. Under this assessment, they determined not only what is confirmable but what also is scientifically possible. Therefore, the scholars deemed the virgin birth as non–historical, concluding that Jesus had been conceived through normal sexual intercourse between a male and female because it fit the paradigm known today. This stance held by the Jesus Seminar "turn[s] a corner in the traditional understanding of the relationship that faith and philosophy bear to science and history" (Powell, 115). For this reason, I reject the integrity of their work. I believe faith and philosophy should be kept separate of science and history, unless the two aim to support one another. Rescinding concepts of faith simply because they do fall within current scientific boundaries is illegitimate. The major flaw of the Jesus Seminar is their ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Nokia has conducted a customer–driven marketing strategy. They segment the market by income and they have divided their target group into developing markets and developed ones. They sell phones to over 150 countries and among them European countries contributes to 39 percent of its total net sales while Asia, Latin America, and other developing markets account for 56 percent. It is shown from the numbers that developing markets are essential for Nokia. Nokia takes over the market shares in a way similar to Honda. It started by focusing on developing countries and selling them entry–level phones. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... This is hard to copy because their customer loyalty is gained from a long period of time. In one word, Nokia's competitive advantage in developed markets is not as strong as that in developing markets but they still have a pretty good market share. Being a market leader in developing markets, what Nokia needs to do is to protect and expand its market shares. And being more of a market challenger in developed markets, Nokia needs to keep transforming their product to meet the new demands ands not to lose their market shares to others. Ben & Jerry's 1.

Harris quoted another author to say, "these linguistic and stylistic considerations, when weighed against the undoubted resemblances between the first 20 chapters and chapter 21, it offers no sufficient information that would lead one to believe that chapter 21 was written by any other author." Harris contends that most scholars, do not make the decision for or against the identity of the authorship based on the stylistic or linguistic evidence, but rather, that argument is made on the basis of the content or logical argument flow. Harris uses the knowledge of other scholars regarding chapter 21 of the Gospel of John. He highlights another scholar when viewing the idea if chapter 21

Smalley to say this, "Smalley demonstrates that chapter 21 is not as much of an addendum as some believe, and that it does in fact provide a necessary conclusion to the Fourth Gospel, which does not merely end with the confession by Thomas, but offer a repetitive emphasis that the disciples will continue the witness of Jesus even after He has ascended to His Father, in addition to carrying out the mission ...

  • 147. AVID Socratic Seminar In the module for week two there were several ideas that you can implement in your classroom. For instance you could try the walk and talk discussion strategy. This strategy simply means that the students read a selected piece of literature and have a small–group discussion about teacher–created topics posted around the room. The resources/idea for this strategy includes identifying main ideas and develop 4–5 questions pertaining to the ideas. Afterword's you type up questions to be printed out and placed around the room. You then should secure large sheets of butcher paper or whiteboard space for the students to write down the groups' ideas, once this task is completed make sure you have supplied each group with dry erase or regular felt tip pens. Aside from this wonderful strategy there was another traffic strategy that was discussed it was the 4–2–1 method. Students generate four big ideas from the text. Students then pair with someone else and share their four big ideas. After sharing their ideas, they must decide which ones from their lists are the 2 big ideas. That pair then pairs up with another pair and they share their 2 big ideas. That group of 4 must then determine which of the ideas on their list is the 1 big main idea. Each group ...

However as a future teacher I want to utilize hands on methods that get the students engaged in the classroom. That's not to say that the AVID Socratic Seminar lacks engagement from the students it does that by allowing students the opportunities to "examine" a common piece of text, whether it is in the form of a novel, poem, art print, or piece of music. Unlike the above two strategies this one involves a stationary setting. I prefer as a teacher to engage students and get them to move around and be interactive in their ...

  • 151. Jesus Seminar Thesis Jesus is most definitely a symbol of hope, however, we need a foundation for our faith. Having evidence about Jesus' life, teaching, and resurrection provides a firm foundation for our faith. The "Jesus Seminar" states that the Jesus of faith is merely just a symbol of hope that provides people with a good feeling and a sense of security, but it's not the real Jesus of history. Contrary to this statement, the Jesus of faith is the opposite and much more than the views of those from the "Jesus Seminar." Much of the historical evidence points to a historical Jesus who did many supernatural acts throughout his lifetime. As Boyd says, "Jesus is not a symbol of anything unless he's root in history."

  • 155. The Socratic Seminars One topic that went quite unexplored during the Socratic Seminars was how we all individually incorporated quotes seamlessly into our essays. As a result, I would like point out that there are multiple ways to seamlessly fit quotes into sentences, such as informing the reader about how the character feels about the event, what exactly the character is talking about, and beginning the sentence containing the quote with paraphrasing. For example, I included as an example in my essay, "Secondly, Ashleigh questions her father's plan on page 4 of Ashes, ' "That's a lot of money. What if Mom finds out?" ' " I inform the reader as to how Ashleigh is feeling about her father's plan. It's simple for the reader to see that Ashleigh is skeptical about ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
