Memory Lane

Education is like the earth we live on. We need it for our very existence. A world without education would be pointless. We need to take care of education the same way we take care of the earth or we will start to hurt it. If we take good care of it, it will we will continue to benefit from it.

Throughout the semester I have learned a lot about education. One main thing that I learned about education is how important it is for us to educate children correctly. It is important for us to stand up regardless of what the system says. I have also learned how much of an impact a teacher has. Teachers can change the future of a child. Even if a child seems rebellious a teacher can have the right impact on them so they don't drop out. I have learned a lot from my classmates as well. I know have access to so many different websites that I had not known about before. These websites have taught me new things and will help me in the future with children. I have also learned from reading about their different views on topics. Overall this course has been extremely enjoyable and there is so much information that I will carry with me forever.

Do you know your rights?

Social justice is creating a world where everyone is treated equally, where there is no discrimination. Once I started to think about social justice, I realized one huge issue, I didn't know my rights. Knowing our rights allows us to stand up and fight back when we are being treated unfairly. Knowing our rights helps us fight for a world with social justice. I read many stories about students getting into trouble but in the end they were prosecuted unfairly so it was overturned. How are we able to fight back if we do not know what is allowed. If a student gets in to a fight at school and is getting suspended, they must know the process that the school has to go through. The student may feel that they are being treated unfair and are not able to tell their side of the story. However it is very easy for the school to say, you were in a fight now your suspended. Students have the right to due process though. If a student knows this then they are able to fight to tell their side of the story. In order for us to have social justice we need to know what rights we have.

I think that this poster is can be really helpful in improving social justice.
