WERE THE FOUNDING FATHERS DEMOCRATIC REFORMERS? The 1787 Philadelphia Convention was where the Founding Fathers designed and developed the American Constitution, developing a new central foundation for this newly independent country. One of the immediate results of the American Constitution was a robust representative national government, which contributed to political discussion for subsequent years. The primary issue being explored by these scholars, John P. Roche and Howard Zinn, is whether the Founding Fathers were activists or not. According to Roche, the Founding Fathers were democratic reformers who developed the Constitution for the common good of the United States and its population. On the other hand, Zinn acknowledges that the Founding Fathers were affluent white men that took advantage of the Constitution to protect their interests and those for the upper class in the society, all while discriminating against the Indians, slaves, and white settlers. Roche’s primary claim is that the Founding Fathers were astute democratic politicians that entered into a pact of a pragmatic compromise, which would both strengthen the state interest and be welcome to the population. He posits…
Spanish vs English Spanish allows a more significant latitude in order of words compared to English. Usually, the construction of the sentence is in the order of subject, verb, and then object. Whereas in Spanish, there is no specific order of forming sentences, that is, any of the verbs, subject, and objects can come first. As a general rule, it is not wrong to follow SVO to form a sentence in Spanish. Although, in most cases, object pronouns come before verbs, and if the verb is command or infinitive, the object pronouns will be attached to them. Ordinary statements can start with either the verb, the object, or the subject. Most sentences begin with verbs. Examples bellow carries a translation of the report “Jane wrote this novel” but with a subject, verb and object appearing in different position of the sentence; Starting with a verb. (Escribio Jane novella.) Object coming first. (Esta novella la escribio Jane.)Starting with a subject. (Jane escribio esta novella.) Someone might think that the above sentences carry a different meaning. The choice of words, to begin…

It is an official language to numerous languages such as Spain, Equatorial Guinea, US protectorate of Puerto Rico, and eighteen countries in Central and South America.

In Northern Spain, Spanish is their official language, but other primary languages include Catalan, Basque, and Galician. The languages used alongside Spanish in Latin America are numerous. For instance, in Bolivia, over 50% of the population speaks in either Quechua or Aymara, and over 45% of…
Literature Review: Social Work Leadership in Schools School social workers are great assets to school communities. They provide links between students, educators, parents and school districts. Also, they take on many roles including student mediators, case managers, student advocates, and counselors. Typically, they serve important and unique roles. Not all schools have social workers. However, they are becoming more common as more students find comfort in talking about their everyday life problems. As leaders, social workers play crucial roles in promoting students’ social-emotional learning and improving schools’ overall climates. In (2011), Laura Hopson’s and Hal Lawson’s authored the article “Social Workers Leadership for Positive School Climates via Data-Informed Planning and Decision-Making” to examine the roles of social work leadership in creating positive school climates. From their perspective, social work policy interventions such as the No Child Left Behind Act are important to improving student results. These legislation and policy interventions influence the design and implementation of programs that promote school climates. In their consideration, data-driven decision making is crucial to achieving positive school climates. They argue that data-driven decision making…
