This type of grammar enables the learners to apply the language in different discourse whether it is oral or written. Competence in the language is very important in order for the learners to understand and construct sentences which are grammatically correct, it is still significant for them to be given the chance to make linguistic outputs so that tey will truly experience the importance of having the language as a medium of communication or instruction and this should be given importance in the teaching and learning process for them not only master linguistic competence, but also linguistic performance.

"A Good Man is Hard to Find" by Flannery O'Connor PresentationBri Dold
Â
AP English Literature and Composition is one of those classes where there is no right or wrong; there are no formulas or set values to which even the most unenthused mathematician can simply “plug and chug.” Literature is the exponent of collaboration, creativity, and communication, values instilled by Academy at the Lakes.
As a first semester project for AP English Literature and Composition, students in groups of four analyzed a short story and shared their analysis as a keynote-style presentation. Instances where the roles are reversed – students teaching other students and even teachers – is a great way to foster growth in public speaking among other soft skills all the while engaging seniors who seem to be halfway out Academy’s front door.
Our group focused on Flannery O’Connor’s “A Good Man is Hard to Find.” An example of Southern gothic literature, O’Connor explores the sentiments of the pre-civil rights era in rural Georgia. To preface our presentation, we posed two essential questions to our audience: (1) Does being a good person entail decency, nobility, wealth, social position, or piousness? (2) Are sinners those who are simply lost or looking for salvation?
Leading up to our group presentation, we collectively analyzed this short story, examining the work with a fine-tooth comb to exhaust every literary element and rhetorical device. This is the beauty of collaboration: we each were able to share our own, unique perspectives and interpretations about O’Connor’s words. Collaborative efforts go hand-in-hand with a balanced, liberal arts education, for the skills nursed in this environment empower the leaders of tomorrow.

Abusive foster mother gets 14 years in prison
By JOHN IWASAKI, P-I REPORTER
Updated 10:00Â pm, Friday, December 7, 2007
KENT -- She stabbed her foster daughter's eyes with hypodermic needles, scorched her tongue with a stove-heated fork and dropped 10-pound weights on her feet.
Chornice Kabbelliyaa attributed her horrific behavior to severe mental illness, childhood sexual abuse and depression.
Her longtime victim -- Kabbelliyaa's cousin -- forgave her in court Friday, even as she pointed out that her relative, in custody for nearly two years, was "locked up and shackled -- exactly how I felt, once upon a time."
Judge James Cayce sentenced Kabbelliyaa to 14 years in prison Friday during a hearing at the Regional Justice Center in Kent, saying he doubted the mental assessment of the former foster parent conducted at Western State Hospital.
He noted that Kabbelliyaa, 34, who also goes by the last name of Lewis, had not committed similar atrocities on her own children and supposedly had not been found mentally unstable until she was incarcerated.
In September, Kabbelliyaa pleaded guilty to one count of first-degree assault and two counts of second-degree assault.
Kabbelliyaa repeatedly offered her "deepest apologies" and said she was "not making excuses."
Her victim, whose words were read in court, accused her cousin of greed and said "the state was so blind to your deceit."
A state review of the case released earlier this year found "a system breakdown involving all stakeholders" -- the Department of Social and Health Services, the court system, the court-appointed special advocate program and service providers.
Because Kabbelliyaa said she was related to the victim, DSHS and others involved gave less oversight to the case and offered less protection to the girl. School authorities reported concerns about the girl's injuries and said her explanations and stories seemed scripted.
The girl felt that "what would happen at home would only get worse" if she spoke out, a prosecutor said in court.
But DSHS workers often gave the foster parent, described as combative and intimidating, the benefit of the doubt in investigating complaints, holding her less accountable than a non-relative caregiver.
The girl was not removed from Kabbelliyaa's apartment until January 2006. She had lost vision in her right eye and had puncture wounds in her left eye caused by hypodermic needles used to treat Kabbelliyaa's mother's diabetes.
Court documents also say that Kabbelliyaa heated forks on a stove and stuck them in the girl's mouth. Kabbelliyaa insisted to social workers and others that it was the girl who was out of control, not her. The girl and her three siblings had become dependents of the state in 1996 after their mother allegedly abused, neglected and exploited some of them. They were then placed with Kabbelliyaa. By 2000, a pattern of allegations of abuse, neglect and licensing violations emerged against Kabbelliyaa, though DSHS repeatedly relicensed her .

Success Stories
Donald K
. Donald K. was adjudicated disabled and the Public Guardian became his guardian in autumn of 1998. At that time, Donald was a hearing-impaired man in his late 50’s with a second grade education, and life-long medical problems. The Public Guardian petitioned for guardianship because Donald was financially exploited by a tenant in a building owned by Donald’s mother. The Public Guardian’s Office was already guardian of Donald’s mother. Â
Prior to guardianship, Donald was not participating in any activities. Aside from his mother, he had no close living relatives or friends. His father had abused him and his mother.
Once appointed guardian, the Public Guardian’s case manager introduced Donald to Anixter Center, an agency that provides various training and social programs to enhance the quality of life for persons with disabilities. Donald participated in vocational and social programs and enjoyed them immensely. Through Anixter, Donald visited Disney World and traveled in an airplane for the first time in his life. Donald spent ten years at Anixter Center and established many friendships with both staff and other participants.
Donald’s mother was able to return home to live with him when her health improved. The family had little money and to maintain them in the community, the Public Guardian’s Benefits Department applied for governmental benefits based on their eligibility. The Property Department expended significant time to repair and maintain the aging home. The Public Guardian’s Office placed other disabled individuals in the home to share living expenses. Donald and his mother were able to live in the community with a caregiver until she passed away at age 89.
Donald moved into an assisted living facility and then a nursing home when his health declined. His house was sold and a special needs payback trust was created so that he could qualify for Medicaid. The trust funds were used to supplement his care. Although Donald was on oxygen support, he remained socially active and participated in various activities in both facilities. He even continued to attend Anixter Center from time to time. Â
Donald passed away in June 2009 at the age of 68. Many friends from Anixter, staff and residents of the nursing home, and Public Guardian staff attended his funeral. He will be remembered for his sweet disposition and courage.
Estate of Hoellen v. Owsley. Â
When Theodore Hoellen was elderly and suffering from dementia, he was “befriended” by Chicago Police Officer Donald Owsley. Owsley proceed to exploit Mr. Hoellen out of his entire estate. Owsley had Mr. Hoellen sign documents naming Owsley as the beneficiary of his pension benefits, savings accounts, and house in a land trust. After a lengthy trial, the court voided these transactions and awarded Mr. Hoellen $50,000.00 in punitive damages. Owsley appealed, and the First District Appellate Court affirmed the trial court's order.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Â
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

2. Do Bella and Rowe warrant protection according to section 38 of the Child Welfare Act?
3. Does the law and evidence support the jury’s award of damages?
4.
5. No. While Bella and Rowe had a duty under section 38 (1) to report possible abuse they did not have reasonable cause to report this abuse as outlined in section 38 (6) of the Child Welfare Act.
6. Yes. It was within the jury’s province as the triers of fact to award damages.
7. No. While damages are higher than the Supreme Court would have awarded, the law awards the jury to assign the damages.
9. Bella and Rowe were found to not have upheld the duty of care they owed Young because of their positions as facility at the University at which Young was attending. They owed it to her to discuss the matter with her and get the facts before making a serious claim to CPS. They owed her this duty of care before the claim, and after the claim; and neither even brought the matter up to Young. While the main objective of section 38 of the Child Welfare Act is to protect children, it also seeks to do so in a way that takes into account the interests of the persons under suspicion as well as the interest of the informants. The interest of the informant is protected in this act by section 38(1) which states “where a person has information that a child has been, is or may be in danger of abandonment, desertion, neglect, physical, sexual, or emotional ill treatment or has been, is or may be otherwise in need of protection, the person shall immediately report the matter.” Section 38(6) of the Child Welfare Act seeks to protect the informant by stating informants need “reasonable cause” in order to implicate someone of child abuse. This section also states, “An action does not lie against the informant unless the making of the report is done maliciously or without reasonable cause. In this case , appendix A, was not found to be reasonable cause and could have been cleared up for what it was- a missing footnote, had the defendants gave the plaintiff her owed duty of care and met with her regarding the issue.
14. Below Average/PoorDepending on how many applications are in each category, the committee will take all of the 1 applications, after that the committee will take applications in the lower rating categories. If the committee chooses to take an application from a certain rating level, they must take all applications that received this same rating as well.<br />In the next phase of the evaluation process, the committee may assign a plus or minus to an evaluation rating, where the applicant’s personal characteristics and attributes (personal background, geographic considerations, race, and academic and co-curricular interests as well as other information provided in the student’s application) are being evaluated. It is in this phase of the application process where reviewers will be able to draw attention to special circumstances or characteristics that stand out in an application and merit particular consideration. When evaluating race of an applicant the committee can, because Hypothetical University has a voluntary race conscious admission policy, give a plus to a candidate who is a member of a race that is underrepresented at the university or within these programs. The committee will take into account Hypothetical University’s quest for diverse classroom experiences for all students in this phase of the process.<br />After the committee has exercised their professional judgment and experience in rating the applications they will then provide an overall rating for the application based on the following scale:<br />Rating of 1 = Outstanding + or -<br />All of the applicant’s materials exemplify superior and exceptional characteristics that contribute to the specific evaluation categories.<br />Rating of 2 = Excellent + or -<br />The applicant’s materials illustrate extremely strong, but not exceptional, characteristics. <br />Rating of 3 = Good + or -<br />The applicant’s materials demonstrate competitive, average characteristics in most of the criteria, but may be particularly strong in one or more areas. The committee may have reservations about the applicant’s academic competitiveness.<br />Rating of 4 = Average/Fair +<br />While the applicant’s materials are competitive in each of the evaluated areas, the committee has concerns about the overall strength of the application and may have concerns about the applicant’s academic competitiveness. <br />Rating of 4 = Average/Fair –<br /> The applicant does not stand out.<br />Rating of 5 = Below Average/Poor + or -<br />In the applicant’s materials, the committee sees serious deficiencies in most of the evaluation criteria in comparison to other applicants. In addition, evaluation criteria may not be met or may not have been addressed in the applicant’s materials, or may have been found to be misleading.<br />Recommendation Decisions<br />After conducting a comprehensive, holistic and individualized review of an each application, the committee will then make an admissions decision recommendation based on the evaluation rating and comments. <br />MA = Must Admit<br />Applications with a 1+<br />A = Admit<br />Applications with a 2 + <br />Applications with a 1, or 1-<br />AR = Admit with Reservation<br />Applications with a 3 + <br />Applications with a 2, or 2-<br />DR = Deny with Reservation<br />Applications with a 4 +<br />Applications with a 3, or 3-<br />D = Deny<br />Applications with a 4<br />Applications with a 4-<br />MD = Must Deny<br />Applications with a 5 +, 5, or 5-<br />Depending on the size of each recommendation decision category (as listed above), the committee will admit each category in the order listed until the admitting class is within the range of students the committee sees fit to maintain a small, individualized experience for each students. If the committee admits one applicant from a certain recommendation group category, they must admit all applicants from that same recommendation group.<br />For example, if an applicant with a 3+ is being admitted (only after all applicants with a 1+, 2+, 1, 1- are admitted) then all applicants with a 3+ must be extended admittance as well.<br />Essay on the Educational and Legal Justification of the Admission Policy <br />When crafting the admission policy for a hypothetical institution ,which was to be a public institution I knew that I had to be careful not to violate applicants’ fourteenth amendments, “which generally prohibits discriminary treatment on the basis of race, ethnicity, or sex, including “reverse discrimination” but applies only to public institutions,” (Kaplin & Lee, 2006, p. 339). I also knew that I would have to make sure the policy did not violate Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, “prohibiting race, color, and national origin discrimination and Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (prohibiting sex discrimination)” (Kaplin & Less, 2006, p. 339) all of which apply to public and private institutions that receive federal financial assistance.<br />In Grutter v. Bollinger, the court issued the opinion that a race conscious admission program was permissible when narrowly tailored, if the admission program did not use a quota. I was sure in the admission policy to not set any certain percentage of underrepresented racial groups to be admitted. I did use the “plus factor” used in the Grutter case, which was considered not a quota, but does give members of underrepresented racial groups a leg up in the admission process. In my proposed policy this only happens if they already were qualified to be admitted based on their academic and intellectual abilities. I also made my admission policy flexible enough to consider other factors under the “plus factor” system as well.<br />As seen in Bakke v. Regents of the University of California (553 P, 2d 1152 Cal 1976) “race or ethnic background may be deemed a “plus” in a particular applicant’s file, yet it may not insulate the individual from comparison with all other candidates for the available seats” (Kaplin & Lee, 2006, p. 343). Knowing that race had to be a factor to help the underrepresented minority groups gain admission into these programs, but also knowing it could not insulate them in the process, I chose to have the same committee review all applications in all phases of the process. I also have the first phase of the process based solely on academic and intellectual ability, insuring anyone’s application that made it on past this point was academically qualified. Then using the “plus” factor I gave the application evaluation process and the evaluation committee the leeway to use their own expertise and knowledge of the current student body in these programs to better sort out what applications would be submitted for admission.<br />In cases such as Bakke, Grutter, Gratz, and Defunis, courts have historically left the admission decisions to the expertise of the committee charged with the assignment of deciding who is qualified. In “Lesser v. Board of Education of NewYork, 239 N.Y.S.2d 776 (N.Y. app. Div. 1963), the court declined to overturn the judgment of the college, stating that discretionary decisions of education institutions, particularly those relating to determining the eligibility of applicants, should be left to the institution” (Kaplin & Lee, 2006, p.318). <br />With this stance of the court not being uncommon, I chose to point out in the introduction to the admission policy that this hypothetical university deemed diversity in the classroom as a major factor as to why the program was successful, along with the small class sizes. Diversity in the classroom was said to be a major factor in the Grutter case when the applications committee was reviewing applications for admissions. The courts in the Grutter case upheld this interest by stating the court, “quot;
does not prohibit the law school's narrowly tailored use of race in admissions decisions to further a compelling interest in obtaining the educational benefits that flow from a diverse student body.quot;
Since, the court’s decision in this case was that a diverse classroom was a compelling state’s interest, I made a diverse classroom a compelling interest for the hypothetical institution as well which is stated in the introduction of the policy. <br />
