A smart Indian is a dangerous person, widely feared and ridiculed by Indians and non-Indians alike. I fought with my classmates on a daily basis. They wantedme to stay quiet when the non-Indian teacher asked for answers, for volunteers, for help. We were Indian children who were expected to be stupid. Most livedup to those expectations inside the classroom but subverted them on the outside. They struggled with basic reading in school but could remember how to singa few dozen powwow songs. They were monosyllabic in front of their non-Indian teachers but could tell complicated stories and jokes at the dinner table. Theysubmissively ducked their heads when confronted by a non-Indian adult but would slug it out with the Indian bully who was 10 years older. As Indian children,we were expected to fail in the non-Indian world. Those who failed were ceremonially accepted by other Indians and appropriately pitied by non-Indians.I refused to fail. I was smart. I was arrogant. I was lucky. I read books late into the night, until I could barely keep my eyes open. I read books at recess, thenduring lunch, and in the few minutes left after I had finished my classroom assignments. I read books in the car when my family traveled to powwows orbasketball games. In shopping malls, I ran to the bookstores and read bits and pieces of as many books as I could. I read the books my father brought homefrom the pawnshops and secondhand. I read the books I borrowed from the library. I read the backs of cereal boxes. I read the newspaper. I read the bulletinsposted on the walls of the school, the clinic, the tribal offices, the post office. I read junk mail. I read auto-repair manuals. I read magazines. I read anythingthat had words and paragraphs. I read with equal parts joy and desperation. I loved those books, but I also knew that love had only one purpose. I was trying tosave my life.Despite all the books I read, I am still surprised I became a writer. I was going to be a pediatrician. These days, I write novels, short stories, and poems. I visitschools and teach creative writing to Indian kids. In all my years in the reservation school system, I was never taught how to write poetry, short stories ornovels. I was certainly never taught that Indians wrote poetry, short stories and novels. Writing was something beyond Indians. I cannot recall a single timethat a guest teacher visited the reservation. There must have been visiting teachers. Who were they? Where are they now? Do they exist?

The passage shows how Native children were expected to fail in school but excelled in cultural knowledge outside the classroom. The narrator resisted these stereotypes by reading obsessively, using literacy as both empowerment and survival. Despite lacking role models, he became a writer, proving that Native voices belong in literature.

My father, who is one of the few Indians who went to Catholic school on purpose, was an avid reader of westerns, spy thrillers, murder mysteries, gangsterepics, basketball player biographies and anything else he could find. He bought his books by the pound at Dutch's Pawn Shop, Goodwill, Salvation Army andValue Village. When he had extra money, he bought new novels at supermarkets, convenience stores and hospital gift shops. Our house was filled with books.They were stacked in crazy piles in the bathroom, bedrooms and living room. In a fit of unemployment-inspired creative energy, my father built a set ofbookshelves and soon filled them with a random assortment of books about the Kennedy assassination, Watergate, the Vietnam War and the entire 23-bookseries of the Apache westerns. My father loved books, and since I loved my father with an aching devotion, I decided to love books as well
This passage shows how the fathers love for books shaped the narrator's identity. Despite limited money, he filled the home with books from pawn shops, thrift stores, and even gift shops, stacking them in chaotic piles and on homemade shelves. The narrator's own devotion to reading grew out of deep love and admiration for their father.

They refuse and resist. "Books," I say to them. "Books," I say. I throw my weight against their locked doors. The door holds. I am smart. Iam arrogant. I am lucky. I am trying to save our lives.
This line stands out to me as the author emphasizes the statement, "I am trying to save our lives". This is because Alexie wants to be a role model to students so they don't have to suffer like their parents, who have sacrificed a lot for them to gain access to books or even a proper education.

we must attempt to understand the cultural makeup of our audience
Being curious about other cultures will help with public speaking so that you can have a two way respect relationship with the audience
-
Therefore, it is wise to plan on being sensitive to previous topics and be prepared to ease your way subtly into your message if the situation so dictates.
this situation would make me very stressed out because you would have to edit some of your speech so last minute without practicing beforehand. A good skill to also add would be to be able to work good under pressure
-
It’s amazing how impatient audience members get once hunger sets in.
i have heard this which was wild to think about it because i have never thought about it before. it is so true though!
-
but we always need to take it into account when planning and delivering our messages.
we can take account but some things are out of our hands, how is our speech going to make someone feel less hot? would you just mention it in the speech as a joke to make them feel seen and create more connection?
-
have different experiences and levels of knowledge
if you were making a speech to a group of individuals who spoke a different language maybe you would word your sentences differently so that you used more simpler words so more people would understand
-
we must know quite a bit about our audience so we can make language choices that will be the most appropriate for the context
this can also be situational, if someone is making a speech at a graduation they could be homing in on the negatives of school when a graduation is about celebration and growth
-
functions as feedback for speakers and contributes to a dialogue
audience members are craving a connection with the speaker just as much as the speaker is craving a connection with the audience
-
Our goal as public speakers is to build upon shared fields of experience so that we can help audience members interpret our message. Dialogic Theory of Public Speaking
this is a very useful guide, this will deter from "selfish" speeches, some speeches i notice the speaker is more talking for themselves rather than speaking for others to inspire and grow
-
all aspects of our field of experience, which we bring to every interaction
i agree with this statement because our past is all that we know and whatever we have learned and experienced then will help us live now, thats why sometimes its easy to tell how someone was raised just after spending some time with them.
-
the transactional model assumes that meaning is cocreated by both people interacting together.
are they saying that they assumed the public speakers would be having an interactional conversation with their audience while their speech was being made?
-
Passion is the extra spark that draws people’s attention
not only does this account for public speaking but almost every aspect of your life, think about us as students and the majors that we picked, we had passion behind those majors which made us very determined in our work and it shows
-
message is ambiguous, people will often stop paying attention.
i remember there was one assembly we had in elementary school where there was a man with a yo-yo and while he was giving his speech before the performance he was saying all of these little tidbits about very deep topics but i was left confused because there was no main message just a bunch of ideas lined up

perhaps to protect myselffrom my doubts, I stopped taking English seriously.
I find that this is common amongst a lot of people. I can even say so for myself, when I wouldn’t do as well as I thought I did on a test or in a class I would get discouraged. It made me grow resentment towards a class I once enjoyed. That led me to procrastinate even more and made me dread doing the work for that class. Although failing can really mess with your head, I think this story points out the importance of determination despite all the discouragement
-
. That time I did cry,and even went to my English teacher, Mrs. Brown, and asked, "How can I get A's in all my English classesbut fail the writing part of the proficiency test twice?"
Nichols incorporates a little bit of vulnerability to connect with readers. She conveys her experience and emotions in a way that evokes empathy and relatability in the audience. Her vulnerability makes her essay eye catching and makes you want to read more to learn the outcome of her story.
-
I was smart, and I knew it. That is, until I got the results of theproficiency test
This clearly illustrates how one thing can easily alter your view or feelings towards something. Whether that be your own self confidence, your love for said thing, or even a person/a place. Nichols really sets the tone for her essay, displaying disappointment and self doubt. This helps the audience relate to her work.

Failure affects not only grades but also identity and self-worth. Sometimes, failure does not allow people to really show who they are and turns them into being more isolated, which lets their voices be less heard.

Molecular Orbital (MO) and Band Theory
Metals conduct beaus of delocalized electrons. Band theory is similar to thinking about molecular orbitals the concept from chem 1. When two atoms bond their atomic orbital mix and form molecular orbitals. But in band theory it is on a much larger scale 10^23 atoms or avagadros number. Insulators have big gaps in the connection band and semi conductors have small gaps in the connective bands.

Which of these final claims is the overall focus? Arguments sometimes emphasize their main point in the very last sentence, in part to make it memorable. However, the end of the argument can also be a place for the author to go a little beyond their main point and suggest issues for further thought. The phrase "empathy, respect, and offers of help" sounds important, but we should note that the rest of the argument isn’t about how to help migrants.
Making your mark when writing doesn’t always mean getting someone’s opinion to change by what you said but instead can be making them question their own thoughts and values. Getting someone to use their own empathy and respect also furthers your argument and what you are adding to the conversation.
-
Note that this is a claim of fact about what people would do and how they would feel about it.
Don’t necessarily need to be telling people what to do, this is an example of another circumstance where you would use this type of claim even though you aren’t convincing anyone to do anything but instead making them question for themself.

First off, a strand of time can be identified when May's mother says: "She has not been out since girlhood... Not out since girlhood... Where is she, it may be asked" (241). This quote by May's mother can be determined as a strand of time because it is emphasizing the disconnect May has with modern day. May's mother is suggesting that May has been both physically and emotionally confined during her girlhood, and her thoughts and experiences in the real world have not developed much past that. This quote highlights the uncertainty of May, and also supports the lingering effects that could still be haunting her of having to take care of her mother at a younger age. There is a pattern throughout this play of May constantly asking her mother if she needs any sort of assistance, such as propping up her pillow, which also underlines the time warp she is stuck in of having the natural instincts of always having to be there for her mother.
Moving forward, a strand of voice can be deciphered when May explains, "Still speak? Yes, some nights she does, when she fancies none can hear" (241). Although it is hard to determine if May is speaking about herself or her mother, there is an overall theme of insecurity and loss in terms of voice. Especially when May mentions how "she" speaks "some nights," it proposes that this voice is not consistently expressed and lacks confidence. This quote could also explain why May takes so many pauses when she speaks; she wants to make sure she voices herself assertively, as she may have struggled with this in the past or even her whole life.
Lastly, a binary of presence and absence is displayed in every moment of the play, but most importantly towards the end of the play when Amy (possibly an alter-ego of May) remarks: "I mean, Mother, that to say I observed nothing of any kind, strange, or otherwise. I saw nothing, heard nothing, of any kind. I was not there" (243). But then in response, Mrs. W (possibly an alter-ego of May's mother) rebutes: "Not there?... But I heard you respond... I heard you say Amen" (243). This conflict and misunderstanding between May and her mother presents how May is still present with the relationship she had with her, but is absent from realizing that no one is actually there conversing with her, that is why she finds herself in disagreement. May did not hear her mother because of inconvenience, she did not hear her because she does not exist anymore. There is also a binary between presence and absence when the lights fade into darkness, bringing the play to an end but leaving the audience with the presence of May's unresolved ideas.

Born Haber Equation
We can not measure lattice energy as it is the energy released when gas ions can together to form a solid. It is calculated indirectly using Hess's Law applied to ionic solids. We break it down into key steps: Sublimation, ionization, bond dissociation, electron affinity, and formation. Remember these key steps
-
Lets look at the difference between Cesium Chloride and sodium chloride, both of which are alkaline chlorides.
Relating to unit cells, the ionic structures depend on the cation vs anion size. For example, for CsCl it is primitive cubic, Cs+ in the center was Cl- on the corners. NaCl is FCC with Na+ in the 8 holes, Cl- ions are much bigger than Na+ so sodium fits into the holes left by chlorine. CaF2 is also FCC with tetrahedral holes Ca2+ fits into the gaps left by Flourine.
-
Step 1: 1/2 bond dissociation energy of Cl2(g) -Known (122 kJ/mol) Step 2: Enthalpy of sublimation of Na(s) - Known (107.3 kJ/mol) Step 3: Ionization energy of Na(g) - Known (496 kJ/mol) Step 4: Electron affinity of Cl(g) - Known (-349 kJ/mol) Step 5: Lattice formation energy of NaCl - Unkown Step 6: Enthalpy of formation of NaCl - Known (-411 kJ/mol)
this is specific to transition of NaCl but keep the steps in mind
-
That is, the energy difference between two states is independent of the energy used to transition between the states.
if the temperature and pressure is the same for two different moles of the same gas, the energy change from the phase transition is the same for both moles even if they were forced to change phases by different means
-
endothermic (breaking the bonds), and the other is exothermic (making the bonds).
higher stability=lower energy
-
energy change when a mole of an ionic compound is dissociated into its gaseous ions (an endothermic process with a positive value).
wouldn't dissociating an ionic compound result in the loss of some potential energy due to ions of like charges being farther apart therefore minimizing the repulsion between them? I know ultimately, transitioning to a gaseous phase is endothermic because the molecules gain kinetic energy, but is the loss of potential energy considered in the born haber cycle?
-
The first is that the smaller the ion, the greater the lattice energy.
is this because the smaller the ions, the closer an ion is to another ion of a like charge? or because periodic trends associated with smaller atoms?

decorum
Decorum- literary and dramatic propriety (merriam-webster dictionary)
-
the powerful arsenal of intellectual analyses, historical and expository information; allusions, references, metaphors; all of interiority, in fact. But isn’t that everything? you may ask. Why would a writer give up so much, in exchange for the unknown? Precisely because the theater is an adventure
O: As someone who loves more classical literature, all of those interior details sound like what fleshes out and makes a story great, but I also wouldn't have considered a play lacking of any important parts of storytelling. Therefore I appreciate Oate's description of how a play must instead force the writer to sacrifice devices of prose style to make way for a new style formed by a collaboration between many other artists (actors, directors, sets, etc.); in short an exciting, completely new experience with each performance.

Claims of policy don’t have to be about dramatic actions. Even discussion, research, and writing are kinds of action. For example, “Americans need to learn more about other wealthy nations’ health care systems in order to see how much better things could be in America.”

substitutional and interstitial.
In Crystal defects there are either imperfections that change crystal properties by swapping the atom (substitutional) or squeeze in an atom (interstitial). Example of substitutional: Brass. Cu + Zn. Copper atoms are replaced by zinc atoms, they are similar size so they substitute to make a stronger mental.
Example of Interstitial defects: Steel. Smaller carbon atoms squeeze into holes between iron atoms. This forms steel and makes it harder and stronger than iron alone.

e cubic unit cell is the smallest repeating unit when all angles are 90o and all lengths are equal (figure 12.1.b) with each axis being defined by a Cartesian coordinate (x,y,z). Each cubic cell has 8 atoms in each corner of the cube, and that atom is shared with 8 neighboring cells. In the Body Centered Cubic Cell (BCC) there is an additional atom in the center of the cube, and in the face centered cubic cell, an atom is shared between two unit cells along the face. Please watch the YouTube video as this can help a lot.
explains the structure of cubic unit cells in crystallography. It describes the three types: simple cubic (atoms at each corner), body-centered cubic (BCC, with an extra atom in the center), and face-centered cubic (FCC, with atoms on each face). Each corner atom is shared among eight adjacent cells, and the structure helps define how atoms are arranged in a solid. @belfrob99

The Ming Empire’s population in 1500 was about 125 million. The next largest empires were Southern India’s Vijayanagara Empire (16 million), followed by the Inca Empire of South America (12 million), the Ottoman Empire (11 million), the Spanish Empire (about 8.5 million), and the Ashikaga Shogunate of Japan (8 million). Keep the immense mass of China
It is fascinating to me how big the empire's truly were. They had so many people and I personally think people don't realize how big they truly were.

At the age of ten Zheng He was captured, castrated, and sent to serve Prince Zhu Di in Dadu. Castration was a common practice throughout the ancient and early modern world, used in China to insure loyalty by eliminating conflict between family and duty.
This is so interesting to me how thousands of years ago they found it okay to do this so young and to take away the chances of a young man having a family. How did they plan to grow their family and have grandchildren? To continue on their name?

the English alphabet uses 26 letters and the average American has a practical vocabulary of about 10,000 words. While a foreigner learning Chinese today would be judged proficient on the national exam (the Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi or HSK) with a vocabulary of about 9,000 words, they would need to know the 2,865 characters that made up these words in order to study at a Chinese university or work in a Chinese business.
The difference in between the cultures is so drastic. The Chinese culture seems to be so much more knowledgeable and skilled.
-
population was originally divided into several small kingdoms whose ruling families were connected through political marriages. Beginning in 221 BCE, the Chinese created an empire

A young man named Zhu Yuanzhang, born during the plague years, watched his entire family die in famines that swept through southern China in the 1340s. After taking refuge in a Buddhist monastery, Zhu joined local rebels when the monastery was destroyed by Yuan forces trying to contain a local insurrection. Zhu joined forces with a rebel army called the Red Turbans and rose quickly through the ranks
Comparing this young man situation to the world we live in now, you can become anything you want to be with or without family support. Determination, commitment, and surrounding yourself with the right people can put you to where you want to be.

Furthermore, psychologists have also found that there are a variety of cognitive and motivational biases that frequently influence our perceptions and lead us to draw erroneous conclusions (Fiske & Taylor, 2007; Hsee & Hastie, 2006). In summary, accepting explanations for events without testing them thoroughly may lead us to think that we know the causes of things when we really do not.

A decline in trustIn today's polarized world, trust in news media is low and declining even further. Just over a fifth of audience members now get their news from actual news websites. News is everywhere and is published in many different quarters. It will be about who people trust and what they believe. Part of the reason for this decline in trust is due to more and more AI-generated fake news, as we are now in an era of "deep doubt."PR professionals will need to contend with a general decline in trust in the general public in traditional institutions, which may affect PR greatly in the future. Trust is declining in traditional institutions and is being replaced by peer influences. People can follow those they like and trust, regardless of the merits of their views.
People are influenced by information from official channels, followed by their peers and personal connections rather than by larger institutions. As a result of public relations efforts, focus on building relationships, relationships with smaller influencers and voices within the community, aiming to get stories published in traditional news.
-
Now that AI is easily accessible and distributed, people are unsure what or who to believe. This is exacerbated by the rise in deepfakes in AI, muddling what was already a fragile social media landscape.Malicious actors can quickly put companies or executives on the back foot by repurposing speech into a false premise, leading to false narratives, exposing them to reputational harm, and causing PR teams to scramble.For real-life examples, look no further than the fake robocall from Biden or the AI generated “endorsement" from Taylor Swift during the 2024 US Presidential Elections campaign season.
AI generates fakes information that causes a serious threat to public relations. Deepfakes allow people with harmful intentions to create fall stories that appear real, using the likeness in the voice of actual company leaders. This changes Public Relations from a profession that shares positive stories to one that constantly defends against high tech truths.

even feedback from the audience is good as well, they can possibly have feedback that a professional might not have just because they are seeing the speech at face value and not over analyzing.

But after thinking and researching further
a good public speaker is a good planner and good at analyzing. you need to find and solve the problem before the audience can even think about the problem.

a good example that some jobs although have to do repetitive public speaking to their students, there are times where your audience is a little bit different and you have to be able to navigate the best way to set up your speech so that the audience can absorb the material youre saying more.

We had seen many people coming to the seashore, but they fled when they saw us approaching; several times they stopped and turned around to look at us in great wonderment. We reassured them with various signs, and some of them came up, showing great delight at seeing us and marveling at our clothes, appearance, and our whiteness; they showed us by various signs where we could most easily secure the boat, and offered us some of their food.
Observation : The travelers stopped at land; they found people who helped them
Interpretation : The Europeans had anchored at an area of land; and they found native people living there who helped them anchor their boat and shared food as well
Connection : When someone comes to your house as a guest, you would most likely feed them and tend to them also
Context : The travelers who were European were stumbled across this piece of land while exploring and discovered North America

Old habit: Just grab a standard benchmark (e.g., GLUE, ImageNet, MMLU) and test your method there. Problem today: Those benchmarks might not stress the thing your method is designed for. You’ll conclude your idea “doesn’t work,” when in fact you just used the wrong test.

Now: Large language models are so capable and multi-task that whether a method works depends a lot on which dataset you test it on.

Some of us can sometimes think that these things aren't that close to home, but they are if we broaden our view, because a leaky faucet in our kitchen, broken radiator in our hallway, those parts of the house that we always say we're going to get to next week, they're devaluing our whole property.
I found the speaker’s analogy about a leaky faucet especially powerful. It illustrates how small, overlooked issues within our public education system can quietly devalue not just individual student outcomes but the overall health and potential of our society. Just as neglecting small repairs in a home can lower its property value, neglecting the foundational needs of our schools- such as adequate funding, mental health resources, and teacher compensation- undermines the value of public education as a whole. If we, as a nation and especially as educators, begin to advocate more fiercely for equitable resources, livable wages, and meaningful student support systems, we can start to reverse that decline and restore public education as the great equalizer it was always meant to be.

[Pause.] Some nights she wouldhalt, as one frozen by some shudder of the mind, and standstark still till she could move again. But many also were thenights when she paced without pause, up and down, up anddown, before vanishing the way she came. [Pause.] Nosound. [Pause.] None at least to be heard. [Pause.] The sem-blance.
I feel like this one may be a bit of a reach, but I find that the word "frozen" can have a very different meaning. I very much interpret this monologue as May is a ghost recounting old events or memories. In that, I feel like she may be talking about herself and that she is ". . . frozen by some shudder of the mind . . ." Meaning she is stuck in these events/times. I also think that the words vanishing or without pause are something to note.

Sequel. A littlelater, when she was quite forgotten, she began to- [Pause.]A little later, when as though she had n.everbeen, it neverbeen, she began to walk. [Pause.] At nightfall.
So, a few things. This is a strand of time. It is saying what comes after, a sequel is something that must happen after the original. As well as that, I also find a strand of voice here too. I feel as though May is repeating the similar voice pattern of her mother. The pauses in her speech semi-mimic her mother's speech which stood out to me.

Amy. [Pause.No louder.1 Amy.[Pause.]Yes, Mother. [Pau~e.]Will you never have done?[Pause.]Will you never have done ... revolving it all?[Pause.]It? [Pause.]It all. [Pause.] In your poor mind.[Pause.]It all. [Pause.]It all.
I feel a very big binary of presence between these last few lines of this paragraph and the last few lines on page 240. On page 240 it's the mother being present, being actualized or at least like that to May. However, in this paragraph I feel as though this is May/Amy's way of recounting her memories (however fuzzy they may be). The mother is not there; the absent memory is all that remains of her in May/Amy's mind.

I observe the statement that while the contents of this document describe true occurrences, there were certain minute details that were left out ("pretermitted") due to the nature of the examination in question. My interpretation of this is that it's meant to be a disclaimer for those reading the document, perhaps for legal purposes at the time.

Witchcraft

Students engaged more withpositively evaluated annotated texts and disengaged from nega-tively annotated texts.
You can easily give constructive criticism and keep the moral of the write on a high note
-
Moreover, gi-ven the findings on self-esteem and assessment, there is no guar-antee the effects of annotation will be received positively.
Students can view annotations as a complete negative and it can effect their moral
-
Any written feedback processhowever, should be made with a view to transforming problemsto improve the situation for the next time
All annotations should be written to help the writer. It can be criticism but the goal needs to be to in the end help the student improve their writing.
-
to atextual interaction where ‘‘the annotator slips in between readerand text with a note”
annotations are like having a conversation between the writer and the annotator
-
A function offeedback is therefore to engage students fully in the formativestage, capture their enthusiasm, and reinforce good advice promot-ing learning and not failure
Annotating with very negative words or expression can cause students to not understand what the problem is. This helps no one.
-
Being able to decipher annotation is therefore key to good prac-tice, and success depends on its transparency so that students donot misinterpret intended meanings.
Being able to comprehend the annotations can greatly effect your grade positively
-
Marshall issuggesting that the dimension of interpretation lies between theinterstices of reading and writing, where value, tone, purposeful-ness and such like are translated into meaning.
Agree, sometimes it can be hard for the annotator to get how extreme or not so extreme a problem is within the writing.
-
Many annotations are telegraphic and incomplete. A high-lighted sentence, a cryptic marginal ‘‘No!” an unexplained link,a reading history, or a bookmark all poses interpretive difficul-ties for anyone other than the original annotator
Annotation can be confusing and cause problem, however if the problem is clearly stated them it can be helpful

La investigación buscó identificar los principales problemas en el aprendizaje de las matemáticas y, para ello, utilizó la Matriz de Vester como herramienta para organizar y priorizar las dificultades. Me parece interesante cómo esta matriz me permitió identificar la falta de atención en clase y el abuso de recursos repetitivos, estos son los problemas que evidencie y me parecieron más relevantes por esto mismo, los que debían resolverse con prioridad. sus principales ventajas, es la de dar prioridad para la inclusión de los estudiantes, docentes y padres, lo que hace el proceso más justo y colectivo. Sin embargo, también tiene limitaciones: requiere bastante tiempo y organización, y los resultados dependen de quienes participan, lo que puede volverlo un poco subjetivo. Considero que esta herramienta no solo es útil en matemáticas, sino que puede aplicarse a otras áreas en mi caso la educación fisica o incluso a temas de convivencia escolar y gestión institucional. En mi caso, pienso que podría usarla para analizar la baja participación de los estudiantes en clase, pues al identificar las causas más importantes, como el miedo a equivocarse, sería posible diseñar estrategias para mejorar la confianza y lograr que más alumnos participen. En conclusión, la Matriz de Vester es una herramienta práctica que ayuda a actuar de manera más organizada frente a los problemas o situaciones educativas, favoreciendo decisiones más claras y efectivas.

Historically, the devaluation of musical theater dance revealsracial and gender biases as well as an ideahzation of artisticindependence from audience desire or market forces thatfails upon inspection in concert dance, in which choreogra-phen collaborate, compromise, and contend with capitahsm,albeit not quite as exphcidy as in the for-profit world ofBroadway

An uncomfortable part of musical theater dance's history is how the AIDSepidemic, which decimated the Broadway community byclaiming thousands of gay men's lives in the 1980s and 1990s,resulted in an opening for women choreographers and directors.
This is an interesting revelation.

Although it is hard to stay motivated in an online setting when it comes to staying active in extensive discussions, there are also ways that us as students can advance our contribution to any discussion. In the end, demonstrating effective engagement in any discussion is helpful not just for your grade, but also for the sake of making discussions more academic and argumentative.

It must grow out of the hardwork of ongoing dialogue and negotiationamong colleagues.
This seems like a crucial point for the remainder of this article. The authors are trying to articulate this vision for a culturally responsive teacher, but the idea is that, culturally responsive teachers both require other culturally responsive teachers and also have to engage in culturally responsive teaching - it's the chicken-egg stuff you get in Aristotle. I want to think more about what sort of teaching environment would be required to allow teachers to become culturally responsive. What does the administrative environment need to be like? Class size? Union? Salary? What are the material/professional conditions necessary for the emergence of SRT?
