We want our students to be well equipped to make positive contributions to the local, national, and international communities. We believe that students learn best when: they are in a safe, supportive environment which promotes life-long learning, problem solving, creativity, curiosity and independent thinking. they feel ownership of their own learning and are empowered to set goals and act in ways that are supportive of their own growth. they are willing to make mistakes to help them learn. they are eager to work with others to take on any challenges. the learning environment provides personalized learning opportunities that encourage self-discovery, self assessment and risk-taking. We believe that students learn best from teachers who: are knowledgeable, enthusiastic and invested in their content area. communicate high expectations clearly and consistently. demonstrate flexibility and adaptability to learning conditions and to students' needs. use a variety of instructional and assessment strategies based on current research and best practices to engage students in their learning. Furthermore, students will benefit from a community that: encourages a partnership between school, parents and community. recognizes and respects diversity. supports learning through appropriate funding for relevant technology and materials, through adequate staffing that ensures smaller class sizes, and through opportunities for effective professional development. 3 MANSFIELD HIGH SCHOOL 21st CENTURY LEARNING EXPECTATIONS Academic Expectation #1: Student will communicate effectively in writing and in speech Exceeds Proficient Proficient Approaching Proficient Beginning Development Argument Argument is presented in an Argument is presented in an *May contain 1-2 of the *May contain 3 or more of Development organized, logical progression. organized, logical following deficiencies: the following deficiencies: progression.

Recieved 09.28.2015; Accepted 12.21.2015 ABSTRACT: City is the most complicated and tangible creature of man. There is a critical mutual communication between human and city; and the effect of one’ living environment is beyond question. Graffiti is a new urban phenomenon, which has drawn attention in light of its connection with protestation culture and street art. Thanks to symbolism of graffiti, the artists have added mysterious aspects to their work and distinguished themselves from formal culture. Social protestation is the most notable feature of the graffiti found in Iranian cities. However, to the best of our knowledge, there has been no notable research work in Iran on the relationship of human, society, and existence from of graffiti symbolism viewpoint in particular. The present study is an attempt to survey and evaluate common symbols used on urban graffiti through documentary research. Technique and content analysis in stratified semiology based on Iranian-Islamic culture were taken into account. Keywords: Graffiti, Street art, Semiology, Symbol, Vandalism. INTRODUCTION but also causes heavy costs. Importance of symbols and the Cities are centers of cultural and social activities so that one main urban elements in readability on one hand, and chaos in can witness the most disciplined and elegant appearance of urban landscape and mental image of the citizen on the other cultural and artistic works in cities.

  • 65 Introduction the Silver, Partially Gilded, Plate Found by the Czech
    Acta Archaeologica Lodziensia nr 66 Patryk Skupniewicz https://doi.org/10.26485/AAL/2020/66/6 SCENE OF FIGHTING TIGERS ON A SASANIAN PLATE FROM MES ‘AYNAK. NOTES ON THE COMPOSITION ABSTRACT The article discusses, from formal perspective, the mounted hunting scene on the Kushano-Sasanian silver plate found in Mes Aynak in Afghanistan. The scene represents the model related to other Sasanian silverware, however with significant variances. When compared the scene to other models defined by Author, conclusion is made that except for several “canonical” layouts, Sasanian toreuts, allowed themselves a dose of freedom in combining them. This phenomenon seems to be related to peripheries of the Sasanian Empire and model of a sword-wielding rider in combat with large felines while holding an object in outstretched left hand was defined as originating from Kushanshahr and combining Assyrian and Achaemenid formulae of men killing beasts with mounted archer/lancer layouts popular in Sasanian silver. Key words: Kushano-Sasanian art., silver plates, iconography SCENA WALKI Z TYGRYSAMI NA SASANIDZKIEJ PATERZE Z MES ‘AYNAK. UWAGI NA TEMAT KOMPOZYCJI ABSTRAKT W prezentowanym studium poddano ocenie, z formalnego punktu widzenia, scenę konnego polo- wania z kuszano-sasanidzkiej partery znalezionej w Mes Aynak, w Afganistanie. Scena reprezentuje model pokrewny dziełom znanym z toreutyki sasanidzkiej, jednakże z wyraźnymi różnicami. Porównując scenę z modelami wyróżnio- nymi przez Autora, pojawił się wniosek, że sasanidzcy mistrzowie obróbki srebra, poza „kanonicznymi” figurami, po- zwalali sobie na formalne eksperymenty. Jest to zjawisko znane z peryferii imperium Sasanidów, a model obejmujący jeźdźca uderzającego mieczem „kotowatego drapieżnika” a w wolnej, wyciągniętej ręce trzymającego inny obiekt, wykształcił się w Kuszanszahr i łączy w sobie asyryjskie i achemenidzkie formuły ludzi zabijających dzikie bestie z układami ukazującymi konnego łucznika czy jeźdźca operującego włócznią, znane z sasanidzkigo srebra.

  • Engaging with Histories, Theories, Practices, and Discursive Strategies in Global Contexts
    CONFERENCE THEME Reconceptualizing Diversity: Engaging with Histories, Theories, Practices, and Discursive Strategies in Global Contexts. The American Educational Studies Association (AESA) and the International Association for Intercultural Education (IAIE) are presently accepting proposals for their joint conference “Reconceptualizing Diversity: Engaging with Histories, Theories, Practices, and Discursive Strategies in Global Contexts.” Together we will provide a critical space for socio-historical, political and philosophical dialogues focused on reframing diversity within a global context. In particular, we are interested in submissions that address diversity as a multifaceted and dynamic idea as well as the structures that transform, maintain, and reproduce the many intersectionalities of identity. By focusing on colonialism, settler ideologies, capitalism, and neoliberalism, among other related topics we can resituate diversity in a global context. Turning to issues of transnational immigration, cosmopolitan citizenships, and globalized knowledge networks, we might find new approaches to equity and social justice in education. Who We Are The American Educational Studies Association (AESA) was established in 1968 as an international learned society for students, teachers, research scholars, and administrators who are interested in the foundations of education. AESA is a society primarily comprised of college and university professors who teach and research in the field of education utilizing one or more of the liberal arts disciplines

  • Marissa K. Munderloh Phd Thesis
    The Emergence of Post-Hybrid Identities: a Comparative Analysis of National Identity Formations in Germany’s Contemporary Hip-Hop Culture Marissa Kristina Munderloh This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree of PhD at the University of St Andrews 3 October 2014 Abstract This thesis examines how hip-hop has become a meaningful cultural movement for contemporary artists in Hamburg and in Oldenburg. The comparative analysis is guided by a three-dimensional theoretical framework that considers the spatial, historical and social influences, which have shaped hip-hop music, dance, rap and graffiti art in the USA and subsequently in the two northern German cities. The research methods entail participant observation, semi-structured interviews and a close reading of hip-hop’s cultural texts in the form of videos, photographs and lyrics. The first chapter analyses the manifestation of hip-hop music in Hamburg. The second chapter looks at the local adaptation of hip-hop’s dance styles. The last two chapters on rap and graffiti art present a comparative analysis between the art forms’ appropriation in Hamburg and in Oldenburg. In comparing hip-hop’s four main elements and their practices in two distinct cities, this research project expands current German hip-hop scholarship beyond the common focus on rap, especially in terms of rap being a voice of the minority. It also offers insights into the ways in which artists express their local, regional or national identity as a culturally hybrid state, since hip-hop’s art forms have always been the result of cultural and artistic mixture.

  • Is Street Art a Crime? an Attempt at Examining Street Art Using Criminology
    Advances in Applied Sociology 2012. Vol.2, No.1, 53-58 Published Online March 2012 in SciRes (http://www.SciRP.org/journal/aasoci) http://dx.doi.org/10.4236/aasoci.2012.21007 Is Street Art a Crime? An Attempt at Examining Street Art Using Criminology Zeynep Alpaslan Department of Sociology, Hacettepe University, Ankara, Turkey Email: [email protected] Received February 1st, 2012; revised February 29th, 2012; accepted March 13th, 2012 A clear and basic definition is the fundamental element in understanding, thus explaining any social sci- entific concept. Street art is a social phenomenon, characterized by its illegal nature, which social scien- tists from several subjects have increasingly been examining, interpreting and discussing for the past 50 years. Even though the concept itself has been defined much more clearly over the years, its standing concerning whether it is a crime or form of art is still a borderline issue. This paper attempts to first try to define street art under a type of crime, then examine it using criminological perspective, with crimino- logical and deviance theories in order to understand and explain it better using an example, the KÜF Pro- ject from Ankara Turkey. Keywords: Street Art; Definition; Criminology; Crime Theory; KÜF Project Introduction what it has to offer. The street artists, who use the technologies of the modern time to claim space, communicate ideas, and Art, in the general sense, is the process and/or product of de- express social and/or political views, have motivations and liberately arranging elements in a way that appeals to the senses objectives as varied as the artists themselves.

He is one of the pioneers of the French Street Art movement alongside others like Jérôme Mesnager, Miss Tic and Blek le Rat. By imposing a powerful, innovative style in the early 1980s, Speedy influenced a generation of urban artists. Though his work has evolved considerably over the past few decades, he has become known and revered for his exploration of commercialism and references to pop culture images and icons. After a very brief career as a graphic designer and art director, in 1983 Speedy joined the collective X- Moulinex,[1] but left the following year.[2] In 1985, he was on the first meeting of the graffiti and urban art movement in Bondy (France), on the VLP's initiative, with Jef Aerosol, Miss Tic, SP 38, Epsylon Point, Blek le rat, Futura 2000, Nuklé-Art, Kim Prisu, Banlieue-Banlieue… By 1989 Speedy Graphito had participated in a number of group art exhibitions mostly in Paris, and by the late 1990s Speedy Graphito’s unique street art style was exhibited in art galleries across Europe.

  • The Rhetoricity of Yarn Bombing
    145 Joie de Fabriquer: The Rhetoricity of Yarn Bombing Maureen Daly Goggin Materiality in its many forms, and an intense devotion to the making of things, has renovated and reenergized the world of handcraft . While this change has given prominence to craft materials and techniques, the transformation has been most dramatic in the area of fiber, and quite possibility the most diverse in its manifestation. David McFadden Since the end of the twentieth century and the turn into the new millen- nium, hand crafting has experienced a steep resurgence globally among both women and men, both young and old, both urban and rural. For many craft- ers, hand work is a dynamic response against the separation of labor and do- mestic skills, the split between public and private, the disconnection between mass made and handmade, the division between producers and consumers, and the other binaries rendered by modernity and the industrial age. As the Museum of Arts and Design mission statement for the exhibition Pricked: Extreme Embroidery points out in the epigraph:, of all the art crafts revamped, fiber art crafts, what Jack Bratich and Heidi Brush call “fabriculture,” are among the most prominent. Why? No doubt part of the answer lies in the fact that “fiber is the oldest material manipulated by human beings for practical and aesthetic purposes and at the same time, the most ordinary and ubiquitous in daily life” (McFadden 1). In this piece, I examine the rhetoricity—the material practices and rhe- torical functions—of a specific kind of contemporary knitting and crocheting, namely, yarn bombing.
