If someone were to compare the curriculum of Trinity College from 1900 to its curriculum now in 2012, he or she would see few similarities. In the 1900 curriculum he or she may see a department of Hygiene but such a department would not be found in the 2012 curriculum, and in 2012 he or […]

Katherine, I thought this draft was great! You have definitely done your research and know exactly where you are headed in this paper. You hooked me early on when you noted “neither college strove to admit women on the basis of equal opportunity for all, but for personal advancement and competitive reasons.” This was really […]

I really like this topic and I think it will turn out to be an excellent paper. I like how you are using Trinity as your specific topic but your frame of reference spans all institutions which went from single-sex colleges to coeducational institutions. Your topic is definitely thought-provoking, but try to add a little […]

If you were to compare the curriculum of Trinity College in 1930 to Trinity’s curriculum now in 2012, you would notice that they looked almost nothing alike. In the 1930 curriculum, you would see no mention of “Computer Science,” “Women, Gender, and Sexuality,” or even “International Relations,” and you would see over twenty new departments […]

Danyelle Doldoorian April 4th, 2012 EDUC 300 Research Proposal Research Question: When and why were new departments/program created over time at Trinity College? Significance: Researching the connection between what and when departments/programs are added and what was happening at the time of addition, it is very evident that Trinity’s department/program additions reflect student demand and events current […]

Example 1 : Plagiarize the original text by copying portions of it word-for-word. Truly, no measure is perfect. But the estimates of value-added and other “growth models,” which attempt to isolate the “true effect” of an individual teacher through his or her students’ test scores, are alarmingly error-prone in any given year. Example 2 : Plagiarize the original text […]

Reading this essay, it seemed apparent to me that The Lottery and American Teacher were very different but did have similarities. The Lottery seemed to focus all of its time on families and parents, whereas American Teacher focused its time on the teachers inside the schools. Also, The Lottery seems like a cry for better […]

I thought this was a great essay, especially because, never having seen the film, I was able to easily understand the workings of the film. This film, Waiting for Superman, clearly had similarities and differences to American Teacher, the film about which I wrote. Waiting for Superman was all about the students. It showed the […]
