Begin by investigating the National Center for School Engagement website to gain insight as to various risk indicators commonly observed in at-risk youth in school environments. This resource also provides strategies for re-engagement that support the building of student resilience including parental involvement, truancy,youth development philosophies & approaches, and reengagement supports or strategies. Next, access your state’s Department of Education website, specifically for their special education link (which may also be titled something similar to Exceptional Student Services). Read the mission statements; notice that your state’s website may have a far-reaching statement as well as specific missions for funding, programming, and resources. Investigate some of the programs and resources available from your state and review the methods the state uses to provide assistance to schools.

Now, investigate a school district website in your local community or state. Look for information similar to what you observed in the National Center for School Engagement that describes supports for a variety of at-risk groups. In most cases, district-based websites include direct links to the individual schools located in the district. Therefore, you may find a special program or intervention model offered at a specific school that would help inform your response to this discussion. Additionally, look for information pertaining to special education. You may find this information under a link titled “Departments” or something similar. Read the mission of the school district. Look specifically for programs and approaches offered for students with disabilities.

You can see the question in each instruction which is A, B,C, D. just give answer of those questions regarding instruction. 1) The Well-Tempered Critic (graded) In grammar school, you were asked to summarize what a story, poem, play, or essay was about. The emphasis was merely on understanding plot. In high school, you began to deepen your understanding of literature by looking beyond the plot to theme, character development, symbolism, and applications and connections to life. In college, we take this to the next level and begin to understand a variety of critical approaches that deepen our understanding of any text on many levels: Freudian, historical, feminist, deconstructive, and hermeneutical approaches. We will begin by defining some of these approaches and then by applying them to a specific literary text. a) Define Freudian, feminist, and historical textual analyses. Apply one of these approaches listed below to one of this week’s texts. How does having a critical approach help deepen your understanding of the possible meaning a text may have? b) Can feminist readings occur in the relative absence of overtly stated feminist causes? How is this possible? c) What is the value of deconstructing language to get at meaning? How is meaning advanced by this kind of reading? Please give an example of what you mean. d) Consider a character with which you can deeply identify. How does this character help you to act in your modern circumstances? 2) The Value of Literary Studies (graded) Consider the value of literature and discuss whether literature does or does not help you as a human being who must act in the world. Respond to one or more of the following questions: A. Does an understanding of literature make us better as people? Is that the point of literature? B. Should literature be taught differently in our grammar schools, high schools, and colleges? C. Should we be reading less and creating more?
