THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

school together in an easily accessible
format
4. Where?
O In your classroom
O Newsletters
O Around the building
O On projects
O Class libraries
O Flyers
O Bulletin boards
O As lesson starters
O On answer cards……
O The SKY is the LIMIT!
5. When?
O You are integrating technology into your
classroom routine
O Need quick access to a site, answer,
information
6. Why?!?
O To change up your regular routine and keep
students engaged
O Eliminate the need for long web addresses
O Save time accessing information
O Create a bank of information for students and
families
O Eliminate wasted time while students attempt
to access sites or activities.
O The QR reader app keeps a history of scans-a
virtual folder of all your resources
7. Now What?
O What you’ll need:
O QR reader app
O Internet connected device
O Access to a computer
O Download QR reader app (many free
apps in the app store)
O Announce this to families and students so
they can easily connect when you begin
coding
8. Then….
O Follow these quick and easy steps for loading a
Youtube video:
O Go to an easy code creator site such as:
qrstuff.com
O These sites have multiple upload formats for you to
choose from
O Copy the web address for the site you are
connecting
O Paste it into the QR code bar
O Choose your color
O Click ‘create’
O VOILA
10. Newsletters
O Codes on newsletters will allow
families and students to access
helpful materials (and keep a
record of them) whether you
utilize hardcopies/web based
distribution.
O Who wants to receive a
newsletter with AMAZING
learning connections~ only to
find that you have to tediously
type in a series of long URL
addresses???
O Simply scan and go!
11. Back to School Night
Don’t just pass out a
stack of papers!
CODE THEM!
O Code your back to
school night
literature for parents
to access in an
instant via their
handheld devices!
12. Connecting Specialists
O In your specialist
classroom add a
link to your bulletin
board/door to give
students and
families quick
access to your
class blogs or
virtual newsletters!
13. Quickly Direct Students to
Lesson Websites
O How many times have you had to
wait- and wait- and wait- for
students to type in a website, only
to have them enter it incorrectly
and be misdirected or left
hanging?
O Students can simply scan a code-
1 could be on the board, or on
tables etc.. For students to quickly
scan for instant access.
O Searching for sites can lead to
scary consequences and
unintended ‘finds’ on the world
wide web…
V.S
14. Check Check!
O Connect students to the
correct answers to
independent work without
having a line of students
waiting to be ‘checked’.
O Students can scan the
code and begin correcting
mistakes in their work
before you are ready to
review as a class.
O This gives them autonomy
in their assignments and
allows you more time to
work with struggling/high
flyer students.
16. Interactive Library
O QR codes can connect readers
to authentic literature utilizing
student created book talks!
O When readers are engaged in
their reading they are more apt
and able to read text as a higher
level and truly dig deep into the
text.
O Tag books in your library with
student, scholastic or teacher
created book talks that allow the
reader to see the book through a
peers point of view before
digging in.
O You can also print out images of
the books with codes for a
bulletin board to showcase the
most recent talks in your library
17. Directions for Learning
Centers
O In many classrooms traditional ‘stations’
where students can work on learning activities
have been nudged out by additional seating
for students in growing classrooms.
O Allow students to continue working with center
activities, without having to discuss ‘what do I
do’ with peers.
O Scanning the code gives them the directions
at their seats- without needless copies that
will inevitably become ‘lost’ in their desks
(these can be kept from year to year and put
into frames for easy scanning ).
18. Link Presentations to Projects
O Science fair, leprechaun traps,
egg drop, Wax Museum….
The list goes on.
O Parents can’t attend EVERY
presentation
O Students are NERVOUS and
the energy is LOUD
O Pre-recording allows for well
practiced presentations to be
utilized on projects throughout
the year!
21. Interactive Student Research
and Assignment Boards
O Post an assignment and have students add text, photos
and videos to support their answers.
O This research can be used to prepare written responses
to their learning, or as study tools
22. Investigate Something New
O Using models you can easily
create codes that will allow
students to dive deep into
their subjects ;-)
O Learning about animal
adaptations and horned
toads? Code various parts
and link videos and
information that will allow
students to see their various
adaptations in action!
O ‘Mr. Bones’ allows students
to learn about each bone
section independently as
they learn how parts work
together as a unit.
23. Homework Help
O Utilize your class blog as
a virtual classroom.
O Adding a link to your blog
on assignments will
enable students to
quickly access reteach
videos when stuck on
assignments.
O This also cuts down on
‘that’s not how my
teacher explained it’ and
allows parents to directly
hear how a lesson was
delivered in class!
24. Promote School-wide Events
O Create flyers for
families and
integrate QR codes
onto your flyers.
O These codes can
link to websites
promoting the event
with links for
volunteering etc…
25. Interactive School Events
