Freedom writers and the emperor`s club por Andres Caceres/Rosani CachagoAndres_Caceres
The document summarizes two films that depict different pedagogical models - Freedom Writers and The Emperor's Club. In Freedom Writers, the teacher Erin Gruwell uses innovative active learning techniques to help troubled students express themselves and build trust. She has them write diaries to share their experiences. In The Emperor's Club, the traditional model is depicted where the teacher strictly teaches through repetition and memorization without connections to students. The school values discipline over creative thinking.
The 7th Mid-Year Conference of Toastmasters International District 75 will be held on October 10-11, 2009 at the MMLDC facility in Antipolo City. The conference will feature events in the Academic Hall, Executive Room, Areva Pavilion, ABB Hall, and Food Hall. Transportation will be provided from Ortigas to the conference site for Php 212 per person, with pickups starting at 10:30 AM and return trips after lunch. Attendees are encouraged to explore extremes and unleash their potential at the two-day event.
This document discusses the Roman emperors Diocletian and Constantine. It describes how Diocletian divided the Roman Empire into four parts to try to strengthen the economy. It then explains that Constantine allowed Christianity and credited his victory in battle to God, marking his conversion to Christianity, an important event that shaped the future of the religion.
The document provides a comparison of the films "The Emperor's Club" and "Dead Poets Society" in regards to their portrayal of traditional education. Both films depict boarding schools that emphasize rote learning, punishment, and competition. However, the films differ in their representation of teachers. In "The Emperor's Club", Professor Hundert teaches through memorization and encourages conformity, while in "Dead Poets Society", Professor Keating fosters creativity and individual expression among his students. The conclusion emphasizes that effective evaluation considers personal growth and responsibility over mere knowledge, and that teachers must also reflect on their methodology and dedication to students.

Tom Christensen - "The Norwegian Central Administrative System: Development F...Institut za javnu upravu
The Norwegian central administrative system has developed gradually over time. Key developments include the establishment of ministries in 1814 and the introduction of agencies in the 1850s based on Swedish and Danish models. Since 1945, the system has grown significantly with increased specialization and more regulatory agencies. Reforms since the 1980s have aimed for more efficiency through structural changes, but also increased coordination. Maintaining political control while the system is decentralized and balancing autonomy with coordination are ongoing challenges. Typical Norwegian features include shared norms between political and administrative leaders, modified hierarchies, and autonomy for agencies within set goals.

This document discusses perspectives on comparative public sector reform. It covers the instrumental perspective that sees reform as achievable through reorganization, the cultural perspective that reform is an evolutionary process, and the myth perspective where reforms spread due to norms. New Public Management aimed for efficiency but faced challenges around political control and coordination. Post-NPM reforms emphasize strengthening central control and coordination in response to problems with NPM and a more insecure world. Future government may blend old, NPM, and post-NPM approaches, with both potential positive and negative effects.
