...designed is aimed at a Year 8 English class. I have selected the novel ‘Holes’, by Louis Sachar, and have built a novel study around the text. The plan is a six week unit, and the intention is for students to engage with the text, while completing scaffolding tasks to build up to a written piece of assessable work. I have selected this particular novel for a couple of reasons. The language used is fairly simple, and this will assist with student understanding of the text. Also, as this novel has been turned into a film, students have the option of watching the film in their spare time (or as a part of their activity booklet), to assist in attaining meaning from the text. As the ‘choice of curriculum, instruction, and discipline styles can be the difference between success and failure…’ (Obiakor, 2002), I have attempted to include a level of flexibility within the curriculum so that the individual teacher can teach to their own strengths regarding instruction; however, I have also attempted to pick the most engaging and relevant novel that I could find to make the learning as meaningful as possible. School & Class Context The unit has been designed to be taught at my school. All students have access to computers in all lessons. Our school streams English classes into mixed ability and advanced classes; this unit has been designed with a mixed ability class...

Applied research is research that has a practical problem-solving emphasis and is conducted to reveal answers to specific questions related to action, performance, or policy needs.

...your final response essay assignment, please respond to the papal encyclical Rerum Novarum. This text helps us understand the role of the Catholic Church in establishing the notion of social justice as we understand it today. For this essay, you will return to responding primarily on the ideas of the text, but, of course, your response may still be informed by your analysis of the rhetorical strategies used by Pope Leo XIII. In your response, you might respond to one of the following questions: 1. According to Pope Leo XIII, how can the State promote social justice? What are some duties that it has to the people? Do you agree with these? 2. What is the unique role the Catholic Church plays, according to Pope Leo XIII, in promoting social justice? Do you agree with that role? 3. Why does Pope Leo XIII support private property rights? How can the pursuit of private property support the goals of social justice? 4. How important is the family unit in ensuring a just society according to Pope Leo XII? What should the State do to protect the family unit? Do you agree? 5. What are some elements that are essential to insuring a just contract between the workers and the employers, according to Pope Leo XIII? Do you agree?
