The state of school behaviour in Spain is the focus of relevant case studies on international teaching standards and teaching staff abroad working under the supervisions of risk management staff. It's interesting from five regulatory bodies about their approaches to tackling the problem.
Changing social attitudes have blurred the distinction between children and teenagers, says Geoff Moss, an Assertive Discipline trainer, adding that private companies are increasingly called upon to teach responsible behaviour. The case studies explored in this behaviour-management resource include: a sports project that helps to raise self-esteem; and Behaviour for Learning, a whole-school system of consequences starting with a verbal warning and culminating in the isolation room. Also risk management and the role about restorative justice , where staff are encouraged to accept responsibility for their behaviour management practices in schools; an Spanish group that tries to nip behavioural problems in the bud; and getting the curriculum right by introducing more personalised learning. Assertive Discipline is under review to Behaviour and Learning Management, which has been granted the sole licence within the European Union and the USA to distribute Assertive Discipline materials and to train others in the programme. |

Melissa, a sixteen year old girl was thought to have a classic history of dyslexia, and was refered as part of an onset tecahing assessment in Athens. Melissa was seen by a specialist following a Psychological Assessment. Although such assessments are valuable and provide lots of detail of childhood development, they do not necessarily provide an understanding of the underlying problems and appropiate teaching methods that might be needed.
Melissa: A case study The report on Melissa included the comments that she did not speak apppropiately and grunted on all kinds intervention; was slightly short clumbsy and was often anxious, struggled to concentrate and had poor personal hygiene and would respond aggressively by biting when frustrated. Reading and Writing were Difficult Melissa Reading and writing were major problems putting her way behind her classmates, and Melissa found it difficult to explain what she wanted to people. Along with so many other children Melissa had suffered from eczema most of his life and was prone to catching colds and infections. Melissa Failed Standard Tests On examination Melissa failed the standard hearing and english proficency tests, and tilted his head to one side, was totally dyspraxic, had marked weakness of the right hand. Crawling is a very important aspect of development as it promotes learning of cross-cord reflexes essential to the development of postural reflexes. Many children bypass this stage and become bottom shufflers instead. Dyspraxic Although Jake initially had a label of being Dyslexic it was clear that he was also Dyspraxic, had signs of ADHD and sometimes was obsessional. Specialist programmes |

Solved: the greatest mysteries of all time! Where was our sun born? What took Earth out of a billion year ice age? What made all the coal, oil and limestone? How Earth got a 20.8% oxygen atmosphere? Where the energy come from to make all the coal, oil and limestone? What and why the moon was brought into orbit.
By Henry Kroll 384 pages 8.5 by 11; quality trade paperback (soft cover); Catalog #08-0164; ISBN 1-4251-7062-5; US$31.35, C$31.35, EUR21.42, £16.19 About the Book I plotted our sun’s course through space to discover that our sun was born in the constellation Orion. After the planets were formed Earth was covered with a five-mile-thick coating of ice one billion years with an atmospheric pressure of over 750-pounds per square inch. Sunlight could not penetrate such an atmosphere extending 2,500-miles above the planet. We eventually drifted near the Sirius multiple star-system. Little Sirius B (1.5 solar masses) grabbed hold of our sun putting it in orbit around Sirius A. Earth has lost 98% of its atmosphere (AKA radiation shield). Our sun does not have enough power to keep us out of the ice ages. The additional light and heat from Sirius star system that melted the ice caps and got life started in the oceans. Over time the 750 PSI carbon dioxide atmosphere was laid down as coal, oil and limestone using photosynthesis and light from Sirius A and B. Dinosaurs couldn’t live in today’s atmosphere because their lungs were too small. 65-million years ago the atmosphere was 30 to 60 PSI. Earth has lost 98% of its atmosphere. It is now 14.5 pounds per square inch. We have a limited time to get our act together and get off the planet to seed life in other biospheres. www.GuardDogBooks.com Wholesale orders (20 or more): www.Trafford.com, www.AlaskaPublishing.com Also: www.Amazon.com, www.AmazonUK.com I am a member of Cambridge Who's Who. book About the conscious enlightenment of humanity necessary to save itself from extinction. |

I took a spontaneous picture of Alice Acol, a 7 yr old girl, who had become her family's caregiver when she lost her father and then her mother came down with a fatal debilitating disease. In the picture, Alice is struggling to balance her youngest sibiing on her back while stuffing new cotton harvest into her shreded dirty rag that she wore. I soon learnt that on most days Alice would be seen carrying a jag of water on her head from a protected well 1 mile away, collecting firewood and preparing family meals. Alice is among thousands of youth who were born in refugee camps in war-torn northern Uganda and have returned with their relatives to resettle in their ancestral villages. It was not by error that schooling is not listed among the chores of Alice's daily activities. Education, especially girl-child education is not a priority here in Opac Village located 230 miles away in Alebting District.. basic survival is. A generation of youth particularly girls is struggling to resettle in the unfamiliar terrain of village life in northern Uganda, and who have hardly known the love of a two-parent family home, nor been to a classroom where to learn to sign their names and add 1 to 2 = 3 chickens (did I get that right?). At Ochan Self-help Alliance we have developed a program to build small, environmentally friendly and affordable core houses for the most vulnerable households like Acol's and to increase their buying power through improved cash crop production. We think that in 3-4 years' time, such vulnarable families will have access to clean rain water built just around the corner and afford cheap labor that will free Alice from house care so that she begins to attend school on a regular basis, with a reading desk set aside for homework after school. You can also chip in to support our village motto of "kel kuc pacu" (bring peace home) in Opac village at our website www.ochanalliance.org/blog.

I am adding a service to my business at http://www.wnycomputerrepair.com and would like some input, opinions, ideas, etc regarding "online backup". In approximately four weeks I will be selling online data backup and restoratation packages to individuals and businesses. My studies have resulted in dramatic cost savings for businesses in addition to ease of access and restoration. The problem or barrier I forsee having to overcome is getting a business to understand the process and trust that their backup is really secure in two of our ten locations world wide. Please let me know your views on this topic. This is very likely the way most businesses will be backing up their data in the very near future.

Notable Service for Me is 'Reaching Out to Others'. For Me to reach out beyond the walls & pleasant natural surroundings of my studio at a Hawaiian cultural center on the Big Island by way of Forums such as this & other Internet Media allows me to retain a centeredness, a peacefulness & clarity of vision to share with others in a different world. I share this Aloha Spirit, as well as the beauty of Aina(Land) in Hawaii with you. I share the sun, my paintings & writings, &, one day I will be getting on a plane as so many leaders do, then travel to offer more.
Hawaii has problems like everywhere. Yet, I am willing to continue living here as it has been my home base for more than half my life. Aloha! is what I have learned here. It is closest in meaning to what most of the world calls 'Unconditional Love,' yet it is more personal, and not used all that often historically, and a Hawaii bus driver, or stage MC who announces AloHA! actually is not sharing this in a traditional way. It would be pronounced softly, noses would be rubbed, a breath would be breathed(the breath of life shared) next to the person's nose or cheek one was greeting; and, more often a a kiss on the cheek or touch of the cheek, or touching foreheads, as the Tibetan Buddhists do. How different modern culture can be from such intimate meetings of cultural heritage. I mention these observations, because much of the sanctity, intimacy of people connecting with people is lost in the materialistic, business world. However, ALOHA! is one of the most universally understood word on the planet, next to Love. Love and Aloha can help in detent in the political field, compassion in the field of human services, humility and humbleness in the 'Noble' & 'Notable' manner in which all of us share our Kuleana,(our responsibility in Hawaiian) to one another, creatures large & small & the planet. Replies Welcomed.
