They argued that his protests were fueled by violence and hatred. They also went ahead to affirm that Martin Luther King was an outsider who had come to stir and cause problems in Birmingham. As a […]
Gun violence is a pervasive issue that has undoubtedly steered fierce national gun debates in the US. Among these hideous scenarios are school shootings. Michigan, Florida, and Washington are the sites which some of the earliest school shootings occurred. The somewhat bitter fact is that it still is a common incident that has led to devastating effects on the minds of the young generation and the families of the affected victims. These gruesome incidences have […]

The increased use of mathematical applications and their effectiveness in the classroom have encouraged mathematics teachers to be conversant with technology (Cloete, 2017, pg. 4). Technology in education leads to increased tech disparity and a better understanding of mathematical concepts in junior classes. Tech disparity refers to the number of students that have access to virtual devices. I have always encouraged my students to use Khan Academy kids. Software developers have developed this app from […]
In everyday life, people deal with conflicts, and early childhood is no exception. Conflict refers to when people have a difference in opinion on a particular matter, and that can cause disagreements. In early childhood, a lot is happening, and the children learn new things every day; therefore, conflicts are high. Having a conflict resolution plan is essential as it helps ensure that every disagreement and conflict is solved to avoid any more mistakes. […]
Mystery Math Town is a phenomenal math game with compelling characters and a fun storyline. The game is ideal for third-grade students, preferably age 7. In one of my fourth-grade classes, I deployed this game to my students as part of a more extensive campaign to improve their academic performance. I can tell you for a fact that the results were impressive. My students often embark on a mission to locate fireflies that are […]
The prodigy game improved my student’s STAAR exam scores by 13 points. This is full proof that this game-based learning program enhances the learning activity by making it fun and engaging. The app allowed me to generate real-time reports on how my students were progressing. It also provided insights into student’s weaknesses and strengths. This math app also entertained my students while expounding on different math lessons. This virtual learning environment allows my students to […]
First, unions and collective bargaining have real economic effects on diverse nonwage variables, which cannot be explained either in price-theoretic responses to union wage effects or attributed to our econometric experiments’ poor quality. The recent outpouring of empirical studies on the impact of collective bargaining on the economy has provided us with a large body of new evidence regarding differences between union and nonunion workers and union and nonunion enterprises along many dimensions other than […]
The weight of despair and discouragement came on us during this pandemic. It was an overwhelming moment where no one had the correct answers for the question ‘why?’ Following the numerous deaths experienced in our country, everyone drowned in fear, fear of celebrations, one to one meetups. Most of the people were filled with an overwhelming fear of enjoyment. The drastic shift left us speechless; we grew apart in most of our relationships since […]
Eads Bridge was built in 1874 in the city of St Louis, United States of America. It was named after James Eads, the man who designed and built it. It was the first steel bridge to be made, ushering in a new era of use of steel in engineering, manufacturing, and architecture (Witcher, 2017). To develop, St Louis desperately needed a railroad route across the Mississippi River. Bridge overview Eads Bridge is the […]
