Extractions: Home Caveat: We could have tried (and almost certainly failed) to cover the myriad aspects of morality, ethics and manners. We chose instead to make this a small page. Our main goal is to recommend that parents not forget to teach these very important concepts to their children. We're reluctant to make many specific suggestions on HOW to teach a child about character because we recognize that our audience is worldwide and we know that different cultures have different values. But we do believe these concepts are as necessary to your child's well-being as are issues of self-care. Some people believe that children should be free to learn morality and ethical behavior on their own. We agree with authors Linda and Richard Eyre, however, who write in "Teaching Your Children Values" that this kind of thinking is "analogous to setting a tiny, powerless vessel down in the midst of turbulent, destructive currents and hoping that by some chance it will wash into a safe harbor" (p. 22). As you peruse our suggestions below, please keep in mind that we aren't telling you what to do. If you have a different way, that's fine with us. But we encourage you to make sure that your child isn't growing up a moral vacuum adrift and at the mercy of outside influences.

Extractions: At the Chapel Hill Holiday Inn on Sunday, girls in bunched white gloves sat with ankles crossed, with boys in sport coats (most of them a head shorter) at their sides. The group of middle school children finished learning to shift into the promenade in the middle of a fox trot. After punch and cookies, where the boys practiced their chivalrous escorting skills, the group moved on to proper e-mail and Instant Messaging etiquette, or "netiquette." "I'd rather be playing video games," said one student, right before enthusiastically raising her hand to offer up the "proper" way to answer the telephone.
Extractions: "These programs are partially based on a popular workshop course which is, apparently taking the Silicon Valley baby 'zoomer' by storm." "Socially nervous nellies will eat these up, while people like me will continue to do what we always have when confronted with peas: reach for the spoon without hesitation or regret. Despite my quibbles, these videos are recommended!"
Extractions: Creating Learning Programs for Adults in Your Organization by Paula Gamonal The Opportunity Every organization understands the value of ongoing education and training. We all want to have a staff of professionals who continue to grow and improve themselves in their specialty, to learn the ropes of their industry, and to learn about your company and your customers. Active adult learners make the best employees. But many managers and trainers fail to recognize the fact that adults learn very differently than children and younger adults who are in the formal school system The Solution Introduction The need to know In a classroom of children, there are some concrete guidelines established by a school board with cultural and demographic information that establish what children should be expected to know by the fifth grade, for example. Adults, on the other hand, may be influenced by the boss or co-workers, or friends and family, or may even be compelled to enroll in some educational programs. For the most part, however, adults determine what they want and need to know for themselves. The largest majority of adults elect to enroll in classes, seek private instruction, or engage in independent learning projects.

Extractions: foote.3@osu.edu Ohio State University Extension Introduction Children living in single-parent households or two-working-parent households often find themselves in latchkey situations. Everyday in America thirteen million preschool children are left in child care arrangements, twenty-four million school-age youth are in need of programs (Valentine, 1998), and about seven million children 5 to 14 years old are regularly left unsupervised while their parents are at work or away for other reasons (Smith, 2000). In Auglaize and Mercer Counties, 72% (Children's Defense Fund-Ohio, 1998) and 74% (Children's Defense Fund-Ohio, 1998), respectively, of all children live in homes headed by either a single parent or two working parents. By necessity, these children need basic knowledge and skills in food preparation, sanitation, kitchen safety, and nutrition. It is important to make these messages developmentally appropriate. Specific behavioral messages should be delivered to help children make informed food choices (American Dietetic Association, 1999). Kid's Chef School was developed to reflect unique and special needs in Auglaize and Mercer Counties based on program review results, needs assessment, and advisory committee findings. The objectives of Kid's Chef School are to:

Extractions: Photo by Yingyong Un-Anongrak M any children think sermons are one big bore. Not, however, when they meet Phra Sompong Mahapunyo. "Look here," said the monk, as he took a cartoon illustration from the suitcase he always carries when he gives school sermons. It shows a girl about to empty her dust bin. "When we have rubbish, we need to dump it to keep our place clean, right? But there's another type of rubbish as well. It's in our mind and we need to dump that too." As soon as he finishes his sentence, the litter moves from the girl's hand into the trash can. The students stop chattering and burst out laughing. The monk takes out more paper puppets for his other religious messages. The children are hooked and stay attentive until he is finished. "I've never thought listening to dharma could be fun and so easy to understand," said Pitipong Phasuk, a Mathoyom One student at Kasetsart Demonstration School.

Mastery Level 1 Mastery Focus Identity, behavior, etiquette, classroom manners and Islamic Adab . Specific Skills to teach in Segment 1 The skills needed basically http://www.islamicedfoundation.com/weekend/mastery.htm
Extractions: www.ifna.net Weekend School Mastery Level 1 Age Group: 5-7 years old. Students will spend a total of two years in this level. This level will be broken up into Mastery Level 1 A and Mastery Level 1 B Clothing Requirement: Boys will wear a white kufi or topi. Girls will wear a white hijab. An even more standard uniform is important and you may want to institute a wider dress code for the weekend school which has different color schemes for each level. This approach presents a sense of unity, it highlights for the students that they will be progressing through mastery levels, it cuts down on the distraction of students arriving in very unIslamic clothing every weekend and it provides a sense of equality among peers in each mastery level. Mastery Focus: Identity, behavior, etiquette, classroom manners and Islamic Adab. Methodology: The class will be divided into four segments of 30 minutes each with a 15 minute bathroom/water/snack break after the first two segments. The first segment will focus on training the students in motor skills and Islamic Adab and having them practice those skills. Islamic phrases will be learned. Mastery Level 1 B will focus on learning Salah in a basic way.
Extractions: Trouble in Korea? If you're like most people, the first thing you did when you started thinking about teaching in Korea was check out the web. So you've probably seen all the negative pages (most of them on the "free" ad-supported hosts). The details vary, but they generally come down to "I taught in Korea for a year and all I got was ripped off." Margaret didn't. She had great relationships with her hagwon director, the other teachers, and her students. Everywhere she went, Koreans treated her, as she says, "like gold." She made lots of Korean friends. She still keeps in touch with several of them. So what did she do differently? A couple of things. First, Margaret's basically pretty optimistic. She came to Korea expecting to enjoy the country and to be treated well. She trusted Koreans and expected the best of them. They delivered. Margaret is also interested in other cultures. She's read about them (especially Asian ones) and had already traveled some before she went to Korea. Instead of wondering how she'd cope with all the differences, she started off keen to learn more about Korean culture. She really wanted Koreans to like her and be comfortable around her. So she did some extra studying before she left home, to get familiar with the major issues (most of which you'll read here).

Extractions: LU-Announce We seem to be living in the midst of an epidemic of rudeness. Articles in the newspaper document the number of incidents of road rage. And if you doubt that, just try to merge onto a busy freeway and see how many drivers honk their horn or try to cut you off. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. A 1997 American Automobile Association report documents a sharp rise in the use of cars as weapons (people trying to run over other people on purpose). A Colorado funeral director complains about impatient drivers darting in and out of funeral processions. Instead of waiting for the procession to pass, they threaten life and limb while ignoring both law and tradition in their rush to get somewhere. Rudeness seems to be at an all-time high in airports. There is the story of the man who was angry at missing a flight connection and threw his suitcase at an eight-month pregnant airline employee. Or there is the story of the woman who learned that there were no sandwiches on her flight and punched the flight attendant and pushed her to the floor. And there is the tragic story of the man who rushed the cockpit and had to be restrained. In the process of stopping him, the passengers apparently used too much force and killed him.
