We currently present insurance solutions by listing all options, which may not meet clients' real needs. Presenting just three options - an inexpensive one, an affordable one, and a very expensive one - allows clients to choose based on what fully meets their needs rather than price alone. This "three options" approach has been shown to significantly improve sales results.

Goldilocks went for a walk in the forest and came upon a house where she found three bowls of porridge, three chairs, and three beds. The porridge, chairs and beds got progressively smaller. Goldilocks tasted each bowl of porridge, sat in each chair, and slept in each bed, saying one was too hot, another too cold, one too big, another too small, until she found one that was "just right" in each case. When the three bears came home, they discovered Goldilocks had been in their house eating their food and breaking their furniture. Goldilocks woke up and fled the home when she saw the three bears.

Developing student portfolios using Adobe Acrobat XRoseville College
This document discusses using Adobe Acrobat to develop student portfolios. It notes that student work comes in many forms, such as handwritten work, worksheets, typed documents, blogs, videos, and photographs. Adobe Acrobat provides a solution to organize all these different file types into a student portfolio. It also allows portfolios to contain files from other programs like Excel, Word, PDFs, and Google Docs. Screenshots then demonstrate what the student portfolios in Acrobat can look like. The document concludes by discussing teaching students to use Acrobat and different distribution options for the completed portfolios.
A slide show of images from this year's picture book study in my year 6 classroom. Using a mix of royalty free images and clip art, own photographs and illustrations, my students used Adobe Photoshop to create their illustrations. These were then published using Blurb.
This presentation was given during a recent Adobe online course called Photo Imaging - a crash course for the classroom. It gives examples of ways I use Photoshop Elements in my year 6 classroom. I use Photoshop Elements to reach some of my Art and Literacy outcomes. The skills my students learn are transferable and relevant, since Adobe Photoshop is still the market leader in photographic manipulation.
Mary Budd Rowe's research shows that wait time, which involves waiting 3-10 seconds before asking for a response to an open-ended question, can improve student achievement and the quality of student responses. When teachers use wait time, it gives students more time to think, access prior knowledge, reflect, and reduce impulsivity. This supports the development of higher-order thinking skills and habits of mind like listening, thinking interdependently, and striving for accuracy. Teachers should ask open-ended questions, wait for responses, and ignore waving hands to fully utilize wait time in their classrooms.
This document discusses ways for teachers to connect with other educators through social media and technology in order to break down barriers to technology integration. It recommends that teachers connect with colleagues through "TechieBrekkies", connect with other schools through "TeachMeets", and connect with the world through platforms like Twitter, Edmodo, blogs, and wikis. The document also discusses how teachers can learn from other professionals, teach themselves, teach each other, and have students teach each other through blogs and online communities.
Mary Budd's research shows that increasing wait time after asking questions improves student learning and engagement. When teachers wait 3-10 seconds before expecting a response or moving on to another question, it allows students time to think, access prior knowledge, and formulate more accurate and precise answers. It also reduces impulsivity and supports developing important habits of mind like thinking interdependently, striving for accuracy, and listening with understanding.
Mary Budd's research shows that increasing wait time after asking questions improves student learning and engagement. When teachers wait 3-10 seconds before expecting a response or moving on to another question, it allows students time to think, access prior knowledge, and formulate more accurate and precise answers. It also encourages higher-order thinking skills, self-reflection, focus, and listening skills among students. Using wait time must be taught and practiced as a habit to see its full benefits in the classroom.

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.
