In two separate experiments, the authors found evidence that these devices have negative effects on closeness, connection, and conversation quality, especially notable when individuals are engaging in personally meaningful topics” (2012 pg. 2). This statement shows that phones and technology interfere with our personal relationships. Human relationships are an important aspect in life and technology is interfering with these relationships. People would rather text someone sitting in a room alone than meet with a person and have a nice, empathetic talk.

Many who oppose this research are powered by the right-to-live movement. Jon Shields addresses this in his article, "The Stem Cell Fight" by stating,  "Unlike the abortion debate where advocates
point to fetuses that resemble newborns, in the stem
cell dispute they are stuck defending organisms that
appear distinctly inhuman. They still try desperately
to stir human sentiments, as when the National Right
to Life Committee and the Southern Baptists’ Ethics
and Religious Liberty Commission referred to embryos
as “children” and “babies,” respectively" (2007, pg. 18) Those who oppose stem cell research compare it to abortion. The opposition refers to the embryos as "children" and "babies." The stem cells are grown in a culture disk not a uterus. ]]> 2018-03-27 14:44:47 UTC https://padlet.com/cwarner/nnih1byten1p/wish/246527112 https://padlet.com/cwarner/nnih1byten1p/wish/246531035 Christina Richards, Walter Pierre Bouman, Leighton Seal, Meg John Barker,

According to a survey done of the general population of Israel, over 35 percent of a survey group of 2225 participants identify with some form of non-traditional gender (Richards et al., 2016, pg. 96). There is an obvious population of people who can not be described by the mere words "male" or "female" that deserve to be recognized.

(2016). GMOs in the polish fruit and vegetables consumer awareness. Journal of Agribusiness and Rural Development. Vol 2, Iss 40, p 271–279.

According to a survey of 200 people conducted by Jabłońska,  Żuchowski, and  Olewnicki, "As many as 1/3 of the surveyed do not know whether GMOs are present on the Polish market, and only 9% indicated GMOs share of over 60% of the market, while nearly 70% of the respondents pointed to the presence of transgenic fruit and vegetables, listing a number of their species." This shows the ignorance consumers have toward genetically modified organisms. If they do not know about GMOs, they will be less likely to support the production of GM crops. Therefore, people need to be more educated on the production and function of GMOs. ]]> 2018-03-28 12:16:17 UTC https://padlet.com/cwarner/nnih1byten1p/wish/246853025 Alexis Kelbley https://padlet.com/cwarner/nnih1byten1p/wish/249585804 Using the solar power of wind is not a new innovative technique. Quite the contrary, this method has been used for centuries to do things such as predicting storms, exploring the world, and--most commonly--to pump water. They did die down for a while with Thomas Edison’s invention of electricity using coal, however wind power is making a strong, and controversial comeback ( Pasqualetti,M. J., 2004). In my mind, it makes perfect sense to use something all-natural to fuel our technological society, just like what took place just over a hundred years ago. However, people are concerned that the switch from the current system to the new system will be too costly, take too much space, take too much too much time, and negatively affect the environment.

For example, students are not learning how to write or manage a checkbook, how make a budget, or how to study properly. Most students lack these essential skills that they will need to learn before they graduate from high school. According to Audrey Murphy and Bruce Toff’s article, Standards and Accountability in Conflict, “Many educators argue that accountability policies encourage teachers to teach for the test—i.e., devote instructional time to the knowledge and skills on the test, to the exclusion of virtually all else” (2014, pg.20). This quote eludes that certified teachers are essentially required to teach to the test because their job relies on student performance on state mandated tests. Ultimately, the evidence proves that Common Core has altered the ways of teaching in a negative mannar, prohibiting students from learning the significant skills needed for their future.

These screenings help to detect mental illnesses or impairments such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, and warning signs of suicide. According to the Brown University Child and Adolescent Behavior Letter, "In the overall sample of children assessed with DISC, approximately 72% were identified as having a potential mental health problem and 71% of these students had never been in treatment before...Highrisk
behaviors were found among 43% of children who tested positive on the DISC, including suicidal symptoms (28%), substance
abuse or dependency (6%), and
use of alcohol, marijuana or other drugs to get high (8%)." (2010, pg. 3-4). Through the use of percentages here, it is clearly shown that 51.12% of students in the 41 schools introduced to these screenings had mental health issues that they were not being treated for and 30.96% of students were engaging in dangerous behaviors. Lack of awareness and attention being paid to these illnesses is allowing for many of them to be ignored and opening a floodgate of harmful coping mechanisms upon teenage students.]]> 2018-04-09 04:21:37 UTC https://padlet.com/cwarner/nnih1byten1p/wish/249640325 James https://padlet.com/cwarner/nnih1byten1p/wish/249736313 Some people think that mandatory school uniforms are beneficial to a child’s psychological development because they get rid of arbitrary differences. However, they are detrimental to a child’s psychological development, which is best explained with “Standardizing how students appear may give the school an air of control over the schooling environment, but in doing so, these policies tell students that when and where appearances differ, danger lurks” (Deane, 2015, pg. 114) Essentially, this means that uniforms are teaching children that differences are not something to be appreciated, but to be avoided. They demonstrate to kids that they cannot overcome  their differences and be respectful to one another when left to their own devices.

It has been proven that machines and A.I. systems have taken away certain jobs such as factory workers or industrial jobs. However, despite the loss of deployment in that field, technology has allowed millions of other jobs to sprout all around our nation. According to John Zysman and Martin Kenney, "Platforms, from Amazon and eBay to Uber and Upwork, and even to
YouTube, are built on discovery-andmatching mechanisms, between jobs and employers, clients and contractors, sellers and buyers, and, most abstractly, creators, consumers, and advertisers." (2018). This quote tells us that many companies were able to develop due to the upgrade of A.I. systems, which further helped create thousands of jobs in America. Thus, the common fear that new technology is taking over our jobs is false; A.I. is increasing the nations economy by creating more jobs and getting more people in the work force.]]> 2018-04-09 12:18:59 UTC https://padlet.com/cwarner/nnih1byten1p/wish/249747337 Dustin Ruffing https://padlet.com/cwarner/nnih1byten1p/wish/249752747 It’s not always clear to people why student evaluation of teachers is necessary, but it really should be. Every time a student goes home and complains about or glorifies a teacher to their parents or to their siblings or to their friends, it should be apparent that that students voice matters. Michael A. McPherson and R. Todd Jewell from the University of North Texas were involved in writing a research journal to determine the validity of using evaluation scores (student test scores) to decide whether a teacher earned a promotion or not. This is what their research showed, “We find that instructors can “buy” better evaluation scores by inflating students' grade expectations” (2007). Do remember that this research was found in colleges, which means that even at such a high stage some teachers are willing to teach less in order to gain more. A simple solution to stopping this would be allowing students to take surveys about their teachers and essentially grade their teachers because it would highlight which teachers are slacking in their duties and allow schools to “punish” or at least “sternly” talk with those teachers in order to set them straight.]]> 2018-04-09 12:30:02 UTC https://padlet.com/cwarner/nnih1byten1p/wish/249752747 Emily Young https://padlet.com/cwarner/nnih1byten1p/wish/249793936  A study by Katzmarzyk and Davis who examined changes in the body weight and shape of Playboy centerfolds over two decades (1978–1998). “They found that there was a significant decrease in the models’ body weights and measurements, with 70% of the women being underweight and greater than 75% of the women were less than 85% of their ideal body weight.”This study shows the history of how models are expected to get skinnier and skinnier.

Charles C. Cobb Jr would tend to agree with me in his statement, “Guns themselves are not central to gun violence.” (15, 2018). In his academic article he takes about how they have been key in actually preventing crime. Guns have helped level the scale between African Americans and whites by allowing the blacks to protect themselves from racist white who want to see them dead or otherwise punished simply due to their skin color. ]]> 2018-04-13 13:32:16 UTC https://padlet.com/cwarner/nnih1byten1p/wish/251542518 Alissa Daniel 19danali https://padlet.com/cwarner/nnih1byten1p/wish/252641303 People are like sponges, they soak up everything in life, eager for knowledge and social connections. People are impressionable, especially when it comes to their own psyche. In today's era, social media has became a major outlet with more and more viewers each day, providing the public with body images that are far from average. In a statement by Psychology professor Shelly Grabe, "According to communications theories, repeated exposure to media content leads viewers to begin to accept media portrayals as representations of reality" (Grabe, 2008). This quote provides a reality check, eluding that people are beginning to fall victim to Photoshop and unproportional body images. Not only is this a current problem, but it also can lead to other things like depression and eating disorders. ]]> 2018-04-17 15:56:44 UTC https://padlet.com/cwarner/nnih1byten1p/wish/252641303
