SRS Program Spring 2023

Andrea Grigoras - “Can We Always Value the Ones We Love?” (session 4) In my study, I'll attempt to examine the challenge of fairly valuing the people we care about, and how doing so can be especially challenging when a kid has a mental illness or other disability. It talks about the dread of having to make choices for the kid and the fear of not being able to support him. Insist that the only advice that can be provided is to follow their affection for them and to exercise incredible willpower. Some readings completed for this class during the semester that provided us with a story related to the challenging interaction between parents and children with disorders made it easier for me to choose this interesting topic.

I will apply these concepts to the practice of nursing with a particular focus on children. I will conclude that people entering nursing or any healthcare career must have certain moral disciplines in order to fully understand these concepts of dependency and care, and therefore be able to care for another human being properly. Harley Hagenhoff, Justyce Brooks, Kara Dupont, Halle Galloway, Sydney Fockler, Maggie Myers, Ashlynn Lewis, Cedric Davis, Betsy Roemer, & Blake Howard - “1492: The Music Video” (session 7) Research has shown that elementary students can better memorize critical historical events and facts through song versus lecture (Kumar, et. al, 2022). This song will explain Christopher Columbus’ journey and discovery of the new Americas to viewers. It will cover the main events during Columbus’ discovery and his interactions with the Arawak Tribe. The video is meant for third-fifth grades and partners with the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) standard SS.3a.C.4.1, which states, “Identify and describe the contributions of historically significant individuals to America and the United States before c. 1800.” Harley Hagenhoff - “Where Are the Teachers' Rights?” (session 6) There are over 400 bills being discussed in the Missouri Senate this legislative session. The bill on most educators’ minds is SB 4, which modifies provision regarding transparency in public schools and creates the Parents’ Bill of Rights Act of 2023. This bill moves to require lesson plans to be approved two months before implementation into the classroom. It also creates the Parents’ Bill of Rights Act of 2023, which empowers parents to their rights and allows parents to access curricula and copies should be provided within two days of request.
