Emerging Views on School Vouchers and School Choice
[ send me this paper ]
A 20 page paper discussing the steady gains being made in approval of the concept of using tax-funded vouchers for families to place their children in schools of their own choice, even private ones and even religious-based private schools. The goal is to improve true educational outcomes and to provide approaches to education that can work for all students, rather than only some percentage of them. Without the intrusion of crisis, there is little reason to change the status quo in any area, whether that area be business, personal relationships or public school structure. The voucher debate presents that crisis point from which public schools can begin to be truly reformed and lifted out from under the burden of bureaucracy. All can benefit, but none more than our children who deserve the best education we can provide. The current situation is far from the 'best,' a point on which supporters and opponents of vouchers can heartily agree. Bibliography lists 22 sources.

Emotional Characteristics Of Creative/Gifted Children
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. There is nothing inherently wrong with being smart, unless the individual is a child who does not understand why he or she is having difficulty fitting in to his or her age group. Gifted children often feel shunned from others because they cannot readily relate to them on the same academic level; many gifted children are pushed forward into higher grades with classmates much older and, thereby, have even less in common with them. Indeed, the double-edged sword of being a gifted child lends itself to a multitude of confusing emotions � particularly in the adolescent stage � when it comes to fitting in with his or her peers.

Employment Outcomes for Minority Students
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. Many schools today offer school-to-work initiatives which serve the purpose of helping students prepare for their futures outside of the classroom environment. School-to-work initiatives have been found to be extremely productive in giving students a chance to try different occupations and get an idea of what they want to do with their lives. But do these programs help all the students equally? Many studies show that minority students do not have the same opportunity to take advantage of the school-to-work programs; this paper takes a look at the issue. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Employment Outcomes of Ex-Offender JTPA Trainees
[ send me this paper ]
This 6 page report discusses an article with the above title that examines the relationship between trainees participating in the JTPA programs who were ex-offenders and had been incarcerated compared to non-offenders who faced other barriers to employment. Not surprisingly, research generally supported the assumption that those without an arrest record were typically thought of more highly, regardless of the qualifications or experience of a person who had been convicted of a crime. Yet a surprisingly little amount of research has actually been done on the issue. No secondary sources.
