Promoting Reading Development Introduction Controversy exists among diverse researchers and educational platforms on the various ways in which the media specialists or rather the librarians ensure that they offer full support for literacy within a school. Alexander (2013), for example, asserts that the media specialists have, in a long time, been pioneers both in teaching information skills as well as assuming the role of technology integration, which presumably helps in problem-solving processes. At the same time, Lance (2014), on the other hand, explains that media specialists are often referred to invisible professionals who participate in all matters pertaining to literacy in schools by influencing various educational aspects such as technology, curriculum, and school resources. Lance further argues that specialist also performs other tasks such as the initiative to cut library budgets which eases school financial problems, and this, therefore, affects the literacy within a school indirectly. Therefore, in order to ensure support for literacy, media specialist performs the following which are but not limited to; creating library space, getting involved in matters affecting the resources in schools, acting as a…
Biomechanic technical report. Biomechanics is a combination of both the engineering field as well as the biology and physiology field. It applies principles obtained from the mechanic’s field in engineering to the human body for understanding mechanic influences on the human bones and joints. It is how the skeletal and musculature systems work under different conditions—application of physics and mathematical forms of analysis to discover the limits and capabilities of biological systems. As biomechanics is the study of human movement and interactions with the environment, the field has myriad applications in daily life and touches on many different sciences. It provides a rationale that is essential in the evaluation of systems that intervene to improve the lives of people. Biomechanics allows educators in the identification of physical activities that may contribute to the identification of activities that may lead to the development of muscles and gain fitness.

Michel Foucault’s concept of panopticism Michel Foucault’s concept of panopticism bases on a utilitarian concept that was coined by Jeremy Bentham as he explored panopticon. Bentham came up with the idea of prison using an increasingly efficient framework which is branded the panopticon. The panopticon is constructed strategically with a watchtower at its central part. Around frame that which demarcates the cells that circle the structure. Design of the cells is done in such a way that the incarcerated individual cannot communicate with each other. Also, the prisoners cannot know that they are being monitored. Based on Bentham, the framework is so efficient that only one administrator is needed for manning the cells. Indeed no guard can be a solution because each prisoner is engaged in autonomous actions because they think that they are always being monitored. The paper aims to analyze the idea of panopticism with a focus of comprehending how Edward Snowden’s 2013 insights fit into it. The panoptic approach offers an excellent opportunity for government and discipline authorities to handle crime related issues. Based on Michel Foucault,…
