Who's The New Guy In The Cabinet

The Third unit in the Junior Humanities class Argument, we learned about synthesis and how to make them. A synthesis is a conclusion that resolves an argument between to people and finding an agreement. For this Action Project , I had to chose a role in the Presidential Cabinet and see whether or not that person fit and find someone that better fit that role. This Action Project was fun. I did have a hard time finding a candidate that I thought fit the bill. Me and my partner GM both had do at least one or two slides, she did the antithesis slide and Job description, while I made the other two slides. We split the work up pretty easily.

Welcome To The School And "Tyrone" And "Kevin"

In the second unit of Argument, we learned about the Scott vs Sanford case and about the five main fallacies. We talked about the constitutional amendments that were challenged by case, we made an argument based on the case. In the class Argument we visited, one the Chicago court houses. We saw a case involving Mal practice, this has to be my favorite FE I have been on so far. It was so fun to see the to sides come up with there evidence during the trial. For this Action Project, we read and chose a rule to amend in GCE Code of Conduct. We had to come up with and argument to amend this rule.

I choose to do Trespassing. In the Code of Conduct Trespassing is said to be "Students, patrons and school personnel are expected to have appropriate authorization to be on school property. It is considered a disciplinary violation to be in an unauthorized area and appropriate consequences will be determined." This rule isn't specified enough, because I have personally seen this rule being broken.

What does it mean by "Appropriate Authorization"and this rule isn't pushed towards all people that enter the school other than students, patrons and school personnel. This rule needs to be amended because it is specified enough and has been broken by people inside the school in power. Like I mentioned before it isn't specified enough it says " Appropriate Authorization" what does that mean especially when there is final presentations and the building is opened up to everyone. Does students mean students at GCE or any student in a school. I do understand the mindset of the framers of the Code of conduct. So to show you there point of view I made the argument of the Framers which would be.

P1: Students and patrons have to have approval to enter school.
P2:Those without approval are not allowed inside
P3: This rule is to be enforced by all associated with GCE
C: A person who enter the school who isn't a patron student or staff member will not be allowed and will be disciplined.

I have seen situations where "students" haven't been allowed in to the school after hours to play basketball, I have also seen situations were a students were let inside. why was that student not allowed to enter while this other students was.. There was another example were the same student "Tyrone" that was allowed in wasn't allowed because he was with the other student who was allowed in "Kevin". This rule needs to be amended because there shouldn't be cases where there are exceptions for one student to enter while another cannot.

My syllogism
P1: Not all people are allowed into GCE
P2: There shouldn't be exceptions for some and not others
P3: Not all people associated are following this rule
C: Students and more aren't really specified and need to be, because this rule has tell exactly who can and can't enter GCE without there being and issue. There should be no exceptions for certain people.

If this rule were changed people who come to support the students and school like the alumni wouldn't have trouble coming into the school along with the students who attended GCE in the past and people wouldn’t be afraid to come to visit their friends and teachers to show them what they have accomplished after leaving GCE and even can help the students. My argument connects to the first amendment which is “ Prohibits Congress from making any law respecting an establishment of religion, impeding the free exercise of religion, abridging the freedom of speech, infringing on the freedom of the press, interfering with the right to peaceably assemble or prohibiting the petitioning for a governmental redress of grievances.” To be specific the part in red, connects to the rule of Trespassing because, it doesn't allow alumni to come and visit the student of GCE, when alumni come they make everyone more comfortable and we can talk more freely about the issues we as students notice. This amendment demonstrates true citizenship because, it talks about being able to meet with other and be part of a community and to change and make the world we live in better.

Evidence:
P1:Experiences with rule being broken
P2:It isn't specific as to what it means by "Student" or "Appropriate Authorization"
P3:Relates to the first amendment

Paving A Way To Nippon

In the Junior Humanities class, A Nation's Argument. We learned what was required to make and effective argument. We learned about the different parts of argument like the premises which is evidence that will lead up to the final conclusion that an argument is based on. We went over the Declaration of independence, and how the people living under the rule King George, assembled arguments against him to gain independence. For this Action project we had to write our own

independent study. I choose to write about Japanese culture because just like the people living under the rule of King George, I will declare Independence by becoming independent .

I believe that the everyone should be prepared for their future, which is the purpose of school. I believe that learning about the history of different cultures is a necessity for growth in many of people's minds. People are afraid of what they don't know. Learning about the different ways people are raised or taught to believe in different things or religions. Learning about the history of what the people of the past have seen and been through is like opening a diary where people that have lived in the past have all sat down and told you there life story.

I am doing a independent study called "The Rebirth Of Cultures". In this study I will be learning about Japanese culture starting with the language. Another, thing I will be learning about is history. thirdly, I will learn about the cuisine of Japanese people. In addition, I learn about the government and the different religions of the Japanese, Lastly,will Learn how to apply this to the real world. I know this study will better prepare me for the social world we live in by learning about cultures.

Guiding question: How will learning about Japanese Culture help to better understand people of different cultures? This can help by learning about one culture. Culture is a large topic and to learn about all of the cultures in the world would take a long time.There is a such a vast pool of things to learn about culture.

As a result of this study I will be able to travel to Japan and be prepared to live with a host family. I will know how to act when entering the houses of others

Course Details:
-This course will be a full term (Elective) any age can do this independent study

- Deliverables would be a moderate meaning one or two chapters of reading kanji and learning how to write the Japanese language and learning the history of Japan. I can also learn by watching anime about the history of Japan. I will also have activities were I would visit neighborhoods that were in the past a very large community of Japanese people and eat some of the food there and learn about the cuisine.

-I would go on a field trip every other week. Regarding the topic of what is being learned

-For this class I would need Japanese language books and history books, writing materials, TV, classroom, myself ,Contacts for FE’s and Patience.

P1: There are so many cultures people don’t know about

P2: People will be able to connect to others, by learning about culture. Starting with Japanese culture.

P3: Japanese culture is a vast topic and learning it will help you understand or have an idea of the differences of others.

C: Japanese culture is a valuable thing to learn for people to understand difference between people and can be used to teach children a valuable lesson that everyone is different and shouldn't be judged for it

I have always been interested in Japan in general, I have always wanted to visit and see what it was like. My goal is to live there during college. There so many people that have used culture to make there life better. For example, Sakamoto Ryoma wouldn't have been able to remove Tokugawa Shogunate from power without learning to speak japanese he wouldn’t have been able to make peace. Another example is the artist Kanō Sanraku, he uses native Japanese techniques, which are painting animals, landscape and figures. Lastly there is Chef is Fumiko Kono. She is uses a mixture of traditional Japanese cuisine and french cuisine. This class uses the five pillars accountability, autonomy, purpose, gratitude and achievement of GCE .To Learn new things about people connects with autonomy, having freedom and or independence. In the end the syllogism is explaining that learning about Japanese culture is a valuable thing for people to learn and can be applied to many things.
