J.Anthony Lukas: Common Ground, A Turbulent Decade in the Lives of Three American Families. (1985)
[ send me this paper ]
(5pp) Common Ground: covering a great deal more than its subtitle suggests, is a huge non-fiction study of Boston in the 1970's, when it was under the pressure of court-ordered busing to achieve school desegregation. The three families J. Anthony Lukas focuses on include only a handful of the hundreds of people in a multilayered account of the moral fabric of a city and the vastly different social universes of its neighborhoods. Eventually the turmoil surrounding the desegregation efforts is seen in the context of history, not just national history, or that of Boston, but the history of the little villages cities are made up of, and in many cases even the histories of individuals.

[ send me this paper ]

Educational institutions, including public school districts, have recognized the need to assess job satisfaction in correlation with job performance and relative to their capacity to retain their professional staff. Employee satisfaction, though, is a complex issue. A number of different types of human resource management systems have been put into place in an effort to improve employee satisfaction, especially among administrative employees, including shorter work days, shorter work weeks, and improvements in compensation packages, clearer job descriptions and increasing use of team approaches.

Katherine Paterson’s “The Great Gilly Hopkins”: Its Application to Learning about Learning Disabilities
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 4 page paper discussing how Katherine Paterson’s novel “The Great Gilly Hopkins” is beneficial in the educational system. Katherine Paterson’s novel “The Great Gilly Hopkins” has become one of the most recommended reading materials within middle schools across North America in its ability to address the character of Gilly who has undergone several transitions throughout the foster care system and is considered an example of a child with reactive attachment disorder (RAD). The novel was written for youths aged 9-12 (the central character, Gilly is 11) and within the classroom environment has allowed teachers to introduce mature and realistic subject matter to their students which will lead to a better understanding and tolerance of children who are not from traditional, supportive family environments and who have developed mechanisms or defensive behaviors which allow them to cope with their situation. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Kinesics
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 15 page paper discussing the studies found regarding kinesics. Kinesics, or the study of body language in nonverbal communication, is a term which was first applied to early anthropological studies and was used in regards to furthering the study of linguistics. Recently however, researchers have used the study of kinesics in regards to its importance in communication in business, education, gender relations, health care and other disciplines which rely upon clear and precise understanding in a communication environment. Kinesics is also used on other non-traditional socio-cultural disciplines such as art and multi-media in the presentation of materials. Generally however, studies in kinesics are “grouped” within the larger area of non-verbal communication including proxemics (spatial relations), haptics (touching behavior), oculesics (eye contact styles), vocalics (vocal cures), chronemics (use of time), and objectics (use of clothes, color and objects) among others and very few studies now relate primarily to kinesics separately which in some aspects is understandable since the complete process of communication involves a balance between the understanding of all of these elements in addition to the verbal and content factors within communication. Bibliography lists 17 sources.
