English 2 Honors by Samuel Dittenber https://padlet.com/samuel_dittenber/qppkcu9g9mb3 English 2 Honors en-us 2019-04-15 12:00:28 UTC 2019-04-19 13:40:47 UTC hello@padlet.com Task 1 for Does Suspending Students Work samuel_dittenber https://padlet.com/samuel_dittenber/qppkcu9g9mb3/wish/351617074 The claim is that suspending students is inefficient and it does not help them in any way.
Support: most school districts continue to use out-of-school suspensions even for minor disciplinary issues even though they tend to actually exacerbate problem behaviors and also may lead to academic problems. Further, out-of-school suspensions are not fairly applied with minority youth being assigned punitive suspensions at greater rates than non-minority youth according to a 2012 report by the US Department of Education. ( 2 pieces)
The  type of evidence is used not so much from a statistical stand point, but more from a analytical stand point.

The author used repetition of statistics with percentages of discipline rates for different races.
The author uses the appeal of logos by providing specific facts in order to push the logical appeal to the readers. 
B caused C to support A by providing evidence along with valid points in order to support the new ways that were and are being thought of. ]]> 2019-04-15 12:16:56 UTC https://padlet.com/samuel_dittenber/qppkcu9g9mb3/wish/351620205 Task 3 for both of the articles samuel_dittenber https://padlet.com/samuel_dittenber/qppkcu9g9mb3/wish/351937952 I believe that the idea of suspension is completely unneeded as a whole. Kids that are suspended aren´t being taught how to be better. They are just put in metaphorical timeout until they come back to school again. These articles helped me understand the topic at hand by providing new ways to deal with the old and prove that suspension does not work.]]> 2019-04-16 12:11:19 UTC https://padlet.com/samuel_dittenber/qppkcu9g9mb3/wish/351937952 Task 1 for Counting the Homeless samuel_dittenber https://padlet.com/samuel_dittenber/qppkcu9g9mb3/wish/352255401 The purpose of this article is to identify and exemplify the daily issues that homeless people of all ages face and how we should help them.
Evidence: Scott said, ¨I think it can be really illuminating as to what kind of services  we can offer.¨
¨ People usually head out into the streets, go to libraries, soup kitchens, benches, and parks by day.¨
The type of evidence used is citing a credible source.]]> 2019-04-17 11:51:22 UTC https://padlet.com/samuel_dittenber/qppkcu9g9mb3/wish/352255401 Task 2 for The Homeless in Kenya samuel_dittenber https://padlet.com/samuel_dittenber/qppkcu9g9mb3/wish/352742316 The purpose of this photo essay is to expose and show the struggle of what the homeless in Kenya have to go through each day.
The author used negative connotation in order to really emphasize how bad the conditions were using phrases like society is hiding and words like skinny and rigid.
The author entirely used Pathos in order to make the reader pity who the author is writing about and to really make them feel the struggle that the homeless Kenyans go through. 
Negative connotation evoked the emotional feeling of sadness which ultimately got the point across as to how things were and are for these homeless people. This photo essay was meant tug at the heart strings of the reader in order to persuade them to help the cause.]]> 2019-04-19 12:41:14 UTC https://padlet.com/samuel_dittenber/qppkcu9g9mb3/wish/352742316 Task 3 for the Topic of homeless people samuel_dittenber https://padlet.com/samuel_dittenber/qppkcu9g9mb3/wish/352742910 Nothing really surprised me with this topic due to having experience with seeing homeless people daily. You go out on the streets of Cincinatti and can easily spot a homeless man or woman. Naturally, you feel bad and want to help, but most of the time no one does. I´ve never had experience with their struggle, but I can certainly sympathize and understand what their life may be like. I think its great that people want to help and I think they should continue to do so in order to get the max amount of people off the streets.]]> 2019-04-19 12:46:06 UTC https://padlet.com/samuel_dittenber/qppkcu9g9mb3/wish/352742910 Task 1 for Mental Health and Teens: Watch for Danger Signs samuel_dittenber https://padlet.com/samuel_dittenber/qppkcu9g9mb3/wish/352746494 The Claim is that we should encourage authorities and any readers to watch for Danger Signs in Teens in terms of Mental Health.
Evidence: Keep communication constant, open, and honest: Your children should not only know that they can talk to you about anything, you have to be committed to broaching topics of concern and do so openly. Talk about your own experiences and fears when you were an adolescent. Let them know that they are not alone; nor are their anxieties unique.
While all of us are subject to “the blues,” clinical depression is a serious medical condition requiring immediate treatment. Watch for:

  • Changes in sleep patterns

  • Unexpected weeping or excessive moodiness

  • Eating habits that result in noticeable weight loss or gain

  • Expressions of hopelessness or worthlessness

  • Paranoia and excessive secrecy

  • Self-mutilation, or mention of hurting himself or herself

  • Obsessive body-image concerns

  • Excessive isolation

  • Abandonment of friends and social groups

This type of evidence is credible sourcing.

The author uses tone effectively by being helpful and understanding towards someone that may be in need of help and the are quite informative of any possibilities that may happen in our daily lives.
The author uses logos effectively.
Their tone made their use of logic sound more effective and easier to understand.]]> 2019-04-19 13:23:10 UTC https://padlet.com/samuel_dittenber/qppkcu9g9mb3/wish/352746976 Task 3 for Mental Health Today samuel_dittenber https://padlet.com/samuel_dittenber/qppkcu9g9mb3/wish/352748700 I think that Mental Health should always be focused on because it is a very serious subject and the more knowledge we have about it,the more lives we may be able to potentially save. Teens go through a lot of change and emotions throughout their lives and it is important to be helpful towards them so they are not overwhelmed.]]> 2019-04-19 13:37:33 UTC https://padlet.com/samuel_dittenber/qppkcu9g9mb3/wish/352748700
