The document discusses the importance of inclusion in education. It notes that while many governments have enacted laws promoting inclusive schools, more basic supports are needed. It argues that greater inclusion is necessary to avoid social problems from alienation, encourage hope, and reduce future costs. Specifically, it recommends paying more attention to life in classrooms, building educator capacity, using tests to help not hurt, strengthening families and communities, reducing competition, and treating students as human beings. Failure to promote inclusion could lead to problems like educational failure, inability of graduates to contribute, and increased disease. The social costs of not ensuring inclusion outweigh the costs of promoting it.
Financial literacy is a magic bullet to social justiceAlpesh Patel
The data shows that women and ethnic minorities are paid less, are broadly less well off financially, and are also less financially literate. Relative financial illiteracy compounds social and structural biases and historical hardships. This implies financial literacy is even more important than we may have realised for social justice and social mobility.

The Benevolent Society has released a report to mark its 200th Anniversary that sounds a serious warning about the wellbeing of Australia’s children, and unsustainable future costs to fix social problems which can be prevented by more investment in support for families during children’s early years. http://bit.ly/acting_early_report
“In dealing with increasing problems such as crime, obesity, anti-social behaviour, child abuse and mental illness, our governments are stuck in a cycle of reacting too late when it’s more costly and less effective,” said The Benevolent Society CEO Anne Hollonds.

To assist students in her community and beyond, Amy Kennelly Viellieu volunteered for Posse. Posse helps place low-income students in select colleges and pays for scholarships for their attendance.
In operation since 1989, the Posse Foundation helps students attend college who are overlooked by more traditional qualifications, like test scores or academic performance. After the student’s high school, or a local community organization, nominates a student to meet with Posse Foundation staff, they undergo a three-step interviewing process, called the Dynamic Assessment Process (DAP). If chosen to receive the scholarship, the student attends college preparatory programs and attends an affiliated school alongside nine other students from their geographic location.

As of January of 2021, the organization announced that they would retain these measures even after pandemic-related restrictions on meeting in person ended. In the process the introduction of virtual interviews and workshops opens up more cities to receive Posse Foundation support and more colleges to become partners.

1. Introduction
The current education system, at its core, is designed to reinforce hierarchy, status, and obedience in a free-thinking population. A majority of the problems humanity is plagued with including poverty, crime, and unemployment, babies out of wedlock, diseases, wars, ethnicity, racism, and climate change are part a consequence of lack in the education system. For humanity to progress and prosper as a whole, the current system must be broken down, and an order needs to introduce that reinforce equality, encourage wisdom and spiritual enlightenment.
i. Topic Context
Personal experience, why I decided to write about this and what I’m going to talk about: As an adult, I’m learning from mistakes that could have been prevented with knowledge. I’m looking around me, and many of my peers are experiencing the same thing. Debt, health problems due to poor eating habits, negative thinking, poverty, crime, just to name a few. A lot of what I learned in school wasn’t relatable, so over the years has been forgotten. I think there is knowledge that could be gained from school and not just memorizing and forgetting. Often, we hear what “employers are seeking”, not enough “what will you seek as an employer”, “making you more attractive to potential employers.”
For example, adopting teaching methods from more advances countries such as teaching another dominant language from elementary school all the way through high school. Spanish is almost as common language as English here so why not incorporate it into our education system? our country could reach significant success by raising bilingual citizens.
Thesis Statement
Although the education system has improved, there are still some changes I’d like to see. The education system still is a lot to be desired in the 21st century. Such as learning residual income, the ins and outs to taxes, why we pay them, who pays them and how much. The current system has inhibited the growth of our country by not adding life advancing courses such as finances so we know how to file taxes or the importance of our credit scores, health so we know the affects or positive and negative thinking and how eating habits affect our health, or teaching future instead of history so we less focus on the past and create better futures. These are changes I’d like to see in our education system. The education system should not promote inequality and status distinction like the current education system is doing, but the education system must encourage behaviors that bring positivity.

General Education Capstone Rough Draft
Introduction
In recent years, school violence has been on the rise in schools. Violence cases range from simple to sophisticated ones. Simple ones can be in the form of school bullying while complicated ones include students attacking others by deadly weapons (Blosnich & Bossarte, 2011). A good number of students face violence at school and the vice is on the increase. Some of the consequences of such cases have been severe harms and even death. There is a need to address such vices in schools and eliminate them completely. That will help to level the learning environment so that all students will have an equal opportunity to succeed.
In service learning, students are given a chance to practice what they learned in class in a real-world environment. Students from XYZ University can use this opportunity to help the organization to solve cases of violence at schools and volunteer as data collectors so as to enhance and develop research that shall offer solutions to the menace of school violence. Service learning can also be utilized by students in the classroom through the analysis of various community problems and the possible solutions. Therefore, the availability of service learning and the efforts of The Education Trust Organization can help to reduce cases of school violence and support students from poor backgrounds.
Community Organization
The community organization that I chose is The Education Trust Organization. This organization was established in the year 1980 with a duty to promote the education standards for all students' right from the kindergarten level to colleges and universities. The organization's foremost goal is to seal the gaps in educational accomplishments and more specifically, the young people. The organization is mandated to make policies and advocate for better learning standards. They mostly focus on learners from poor or low income and marginalized groups. They focus on such students because they have a high likelihood of experiencing challenges during their learning time. The organization advances proposals after carrying out thorough research o establish the major challenges facing the students. They then come up with policies that can help to improve the education standards of students and then create public awareness so as to get the support of the government. According to the organization's research, school violence is a vice that is caused by a myriad of issues including, personality problems, drug abuse, violence as portrayed in the media and challenging upbringing (The Education Trust, 2013). Making of new policies is also an effective way of reducing cases of school violence (Shaughnessy, 2017).
Community Partnerships
The Education Trust Organization collaborates with a variety of community partners with a view of improving .
A College Education Has Become An Essential Part Of The American Dreamnoblex1
A college education has become an essential part of the American Dream for millions of families. Indeed, extensive polling and focus group research conducted by our coalition of higher education associations in the last year clearly demonstrates that the public overwhelmingly believes higher education is vitally important for personal success. Furthermore, they believe that all children should have the chance to attend postsecondary education and, despite the high price, that college is a "good value" for the money.
On the other hand, the public also is greatly concerned about the affordability of higher education, believes it is too expensive, and thinks that the price can be brought down without affecting academic quality. The public vastly overestimates the price of higher education at all types of colleges and dramatically underestimates the amount of financial aid that is available to help meet college bills. They don't know where student aid comes from or how to apply for it. Nor does the public understand why college prices increase. Most worrisome, perhaps, they think college leaders are indifferent to their concerns about the price of attending college. Our research also demonstrates that Americans worry about financing a college education. The lack of knowledge about paying for college is most acute among at-risk populations — first-generation college students, low-income families, and members of minority groups.
The great divergence between the value that the public places on having access to higher education and the lack of information they have about what it costs and how to afford it — what we call "the knowledge gap" — is deeply troubling. No one with a commitment to higher education can be satisfied with the news that the public is so poorly informed about issues of choice and access. It is surely a danger signal that the public believes college officials are indifferent to their fears about being able to afford a postsecondary education for their children.
THE NEED FOR A NATIONAL COALITION
What can be done? We believe that two related steps are absolutely essential. First, colleges and universities must redouble their efforts to explain college costs, the prices that students are charged, the amount and sources of financial aid that are available, and the options for financing a college education. We must reach out to a broad range of business, community, and religious organizations and solicit their support in improving public understanding.
Second, and no less important, colleges and universities must take strong steps to manage and contain costs, share innovative and successful cost management strategies, expand efforts to explain why costs increase on campuses, and talk candidly about the steps that have been taken to reduce costs and improve efficiency.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

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.

The presentation was based on findings from PISA 2022 results and the webinar helped launch the PISA in Focus ‘Managing screen time: How to protect and equip students against distraction’ https://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/education/managing-screen-time_7c225af4-en and the OECD Education Policy Perspective ‘Students, digital devices and success’ can be found here - https://oe.cd/il/5yV
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
1. The Road to Be Taken
By
Prof. Titanji Peter Fon
University of Buea, CAMEROON
2. Ensuring that schools are more inclusive is a worthy
goal and many governments have enacted relevant
legal provisions. What constitutes a problem is the
fact that there are many basic things that are not
receiving attention though critical to the provision
of equality of educational opportunity.
3. We must pay greater attention to inclusion
because of the following reasons:
The possibility of greater negative
consequences (social, economic, political etc.)
resulting from perceptions of alienation and
discouragement. Excluded persons can cause
social problems with the potential to affect
every one of us.
Avoiding an increase in the number of
persons who feel excluded and without hope.
Many can become filled with rage.

Education and Schooling

Classrooms

Rather than Hurt

Stronger Sense of Community

Actions to Make Schools More Inclusive
6. If we do not strive towards greater inclusion, we will
bear the cost sooner or later and in various forms,
among them: the lack of readiness of significant
numbers of children to benefit from schooling, in
the form of increased failure in tests and
examinations, graduates from schools who cannot
contribute optimally to the productive sector,
greater incidence of disruptive behaviour, greater
incidence of preventable diseases such as HIV/AIDs,
among others. The social costs of dealing with
these consequences may outweigh costs associated
with ensuring greater inclusion.
