The perceived/debated changes typically fall under one or more of the following categories: A. High school preparation less rigorous and thorough, and sometimes more “politically correct”, than in the past. Page 14.293.8 B. Students too used to an overly affluent and leisurely lifestyle, with an associated compromise of work habits and work ethic, including those associated with studying. C.

This topic is a good example of the discussions that immunize the group, preparing everyone for potential problems that could otherwise reduce productivity.‚ What approaches can we learn from literature review and workshops? Collaborating in the process of gathering outside information has significantly improved our knowledge for a minimum of time spent. As long as at least one group member attends each available workshop on teaching or grant writing, the entire group can benefit from the main points of the workshop. Similarly, hearing about a book second-hand may not provide as much benefit as reading the book, but the most pertinent information can be communicated

Another contender is professorof classics William Hundert (Kevin Kline) in the film, “The Emperor’s Club.” Hundert ispassionate about his teaching, his subject, and his students. The movie focuses on hisrelationship with Sedgewick Bell (Emile Hirsch), an ethically challenged student who Hundertattempts to change. Hundert ultimately fails in this task.

Note that the 2005 portfolio scores for Goal 3, objectives 1 and 2, which involve ethical responsibility and lifelong learning, were also lower than in previous years.
