HW 53 - Survey Analysis

When i was taking the survey it made me think, the questions that they were asking were personal i could ov lied or i could of come out with the truth. When i was finished with it i went back and looked over it and i realized either i had a lot of problems going on or i was completey fine. The questions that came up in my mind were what would the outcome be if this was a personality test , how would i be ranked and all that stuff. The family questions were a stick out to me because when i answerd them truthfully it made me really think deep about where i stand in my family or how ma family stands with eachother. I enjoyed the survey because it gives me a chance to think about my life.

HW 52 - Initial Theories of Human Relationships

A theory that exists in me is treat others the way you would want to be treated. This is basically something that i was taught by my family. They say this is a good thing to follow by because it can be true kind of like karma , what goes around comes around . I was raised up on a Christan based family so this was what i was expected to follow. If you don't treat others the way you want to be treated they are going to treat you the way you treat them. Which goes to another theory FRIENDS which come and go . Why does that happen if you cant trust a person why call them your friend because you may think you no a person and at the end of the day you dont.

Family, should be there for you no matter what and should always come first. They should stand behind you threw what ever you do nomatter if it is right or wrong. Family should lead you through what is right and they should no that people make mistakes and noone is perfect.

HW - 50

In the story The Six-Lesson Schoolteacher i like how the guy says "In any case, again, that's not my business. My job is to make the kids like it -- being locked in together, I mean -- or at the minimum, endure it. If things go well, the kids can't imagine themselves anywhere else" like he has a cure on making the kids think the way he wants them to think. So he sort of sounds like he is a nice teacher one that is very caring about what the students have to say and how they look things.  He even says how school is like a competition once you get to no the place.  "Nevertheless, in spite of the overall blueprint, I make an effort to urge children to higher levels of test success, promising eventual transfer from the lower-level class as a reward"  His other technique is telling the students that since they got to a higher grade they should be grateful and consider it a award, which is basically making the students feel good for them self which would probably make them do more work.
