1) The document discusses career readiness among black students and calls for action. It notes that black students, especially males, lag in career readiness and academic achievement compared to other groups.
2) Significant achievement gaps occur as early as 4th grade for black students, who are also more likely to be in special education or drop out of high school. A lack of career readiness is linked to higher crime, incarceration, and unemployment rates.
3) The document calls on academic and community leaders to address issues like belongingness and empowerment for black students. It suggests strategies like improving school climate, connecting coursework to careers, and providing mentoring and support programs.

This paper details the complexities of in- and out-of-school challenges encountered by off-track youth. It outlines the tremendous opportunity these students present for high school innovation. The authors maintain that schools appropriately designed can effectively meet the academic and nonacademic needs of over-age and under-credited students. The authors provide recommendations school design and systems modifications that can be implemented in either public charter or district alternative high schools. It is the authors’ position (and experience) that schools implementing these design elements maintain safe and healthy climates and cultures, content and effective staff, and most importantly –greater performance gains and improved life circumstances for their students.

Online Education: Helping Adults Achieve their Educational and professional Goals
Thesis: Although Human Resource Managers and Admissions Counselors often have concerns about the quality of online education such that they more often than not discriminate against holders of online degrees, the benefits of having a degree over none is leading most adults and working parents to pursue online education as the only avenue for them to keep their jobs, attend to family and personal matters while achieving their educational and professional goals.
I. The advent of the internet and an ongoing need for education has served as the impetus for the steadily growing of online education.
A. A study by (Ormond 46), presented in his book, reveals that ‘‘online and distance learning are the world’s fastest growing areas of educational development’’.
B. According to a study by Harvard Business School Professor Clayton Christensen and Michael Horn, by 2019, about half of all high school courses will be taken online.
II. Numerous researches have shown that the quality of education delivered online is on the same par with if not more rigorous than education delivered in traditional bricks and mortar institution.
A. Most online education students find that online education requires more discipline and commitment.
B. Prominent institutions like Harvard University, the University of London, and University of South Africa among others have created and are delivering some of their programs online to adults and busy individuals who cannot come to campus.
C. That the Big Three (Thomas Edison State College, Charter Oak States College, and Excelsior College) are regionally accredited and are 100% devoted to online education for adults, is an indication of the quality of the education offered by these colleges.
III. There is a need to sensitize and appeal to the inner conscience of Human Resource and hiring managers to stop the discrimination against legitimate online education degree holders and enforce laws on online degree discrimination.
A. Making some traditional students take at least one or two online classes can help change the bias against online education.
B. It is possible to help adults who have lost hope of returning back to college to take advantage of the technology of the twenty first century to achieve and live their dreams of becoming educated and landing the their dream jobs.

Should Everyone Go to College – Rhetorical Analysis
Education is believed to be the key to success. It is considered a smart investment associated with a number of benefits including earning more money and job satisfaction among others. Higher education is beneficial but may not be a smart investment for those attending it. Stephanie Owen and Isabel Sawhill argue that a college degree should not be a must to everyone. The enormous variation existing in the return to education based on several factors such as the field of study and institution attended among others are some factors to consider when thinking of higher education as a must investment. Despite the positive return on education, higher education may not be a smart investment to everyone. Student should be allowed to choose wisely their postsecondary education to ensure that they fully benefit from their choice. (In thesis, clarify the strength of ethos, pathos, logos in the article.)
Target Audience(no subtitle)
Going for higher education is valuable though it may not be the best investment for all young people who intend to college. Benefits of attending college include improved overall wellbeing and reduced crime among others. As much higher education is valuable, it may not benefit all those who attend it equally. Policymakers who are the target audience should acknowledge the fact that higher education does not equally benefit all those who attend it. They should consider the rate of return as well as variations in rate of return on education before considering it the best investment. Owen and Sawhill illustrate why higher education is not necessarily a smart investment for everyone by focusing on rate of return. They illustrate how variation in the school attended, career chosen, and graduation affect the rate of return on education. The use rhetorical appeals to convince the policymakers that attending college may be a disservice to some students.
Rhetorical Appeals
Logos
The authors use logos to convince policymakers that attending college is beneficial but does not equally benefit all students. They illustrate the benefits of attending higher education by stating the gap that exists in annual earnings between college graduates and high school graduates that is quite appealing. A college graduates working full time should earn $15,000 more than a high school graduate. However, this is not the case because from previous studies, the rate of return for attending an additional year of school is approximately 10%. This means that an individual aged 23-25 years old attending college for four years should earn $12,000 more than a high school graduate on a median earning of $30,000 though it less than what is expected (p.209). Additionally, a research by Hamilton Project indicates that the gap in the earnings grows to $46,500 by age 50. This is a clear indication that investing in college is valuable.

I. Background
Introduction to the DePaul University Office
The Office of _____ is a division of Student affairs that focuses in on the adult
population of students. They work with various resources to help adult students
transition from their lives into the academic space. They are there to provide a
helping hand to students above the age of 24 pursuing any degree at the University.
The three primary methods this office utilizes are Programs, Advocacy, and Services.
By offering these three essential methods of support, this office hopes to ensure
success to all and any Adult Students who seek it.
DePaul University has built a name on diversity and a personable experience to
learning. To help assure that all populations of students are serviced, the University
has allocated many departments. The DePaul Office not only services adult students,
but leads a joint effort to provide for Veteran Students as well as Commuter Students.
Thus this Department is known as the Office of Adult, Veteran, and Commuter
Student Affairs. Each wing uses their own coordinators and resources to provide the
best experience for their populations.
II. Environments Affecting Higher Education For Adult Students
A. The education industry is vast. This specific market of education would be
considered higher education. This encompasses colleges, universities, specialty
programs, and any sort of higher learning. It larger than a 10 billion dollar
industry and growing every year. Competition for the education industry is the
work force or services where possible students begin working or enlist in
government programs. They also compete with households because many may
choose to be stay at home parents. The Higher Education Industry has many
subsets of programs and offices that help enhance the education experience for
Students. Advocacy programs compete with athletics and other inner school
departments. They also compete with hobbies such the gym or outside clubs with
no affiliation with the school. The amount of students seeking higher education is
a market of about 21.6 Million projected to be about 24 Million by the year 2020.
31% of Undergraduate enrollments are of Adult students (Aslanian 4). These are
adults seeking higher.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
