If you think a child is being bullied, talk to the child or an adult who can help. No child should have to suffer because he or she is being bullied. The Difference between Tattling and Reporting Students are often afraid to report what they see because they are afraid they are tattling. Children should understand the difference between tattling and reporting so they can take action when needed. Tattling is usually defined as trying to get someone else in trouble. Reporting is defined as getting help to protect someone who is being hurt or is in a dangerous situation. How Families Can Help ] Talk to your child about bullying. Help your child understand what it means to be bullied. ] Explain the difference between tattling and reporting to your child. Encourage your child to report any actions that appear harmful or dangerous. ] If you see or hear about bullying at school, tell a teacher, administrator, school psychologist, social worker, or counselor. ] Download the KnowBullying app from SAMHSA.gov ] Be aware that bullying can take place through technology, especially phones and social media, and be prepared to take steps if your child is bullying or being bullied.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: PRISMS and POLYPHONY
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: PRISMS AND POLYPHONY: THE LIVED EXPERIENCES OF HIGH SCHOOL BAND STUDENTS AND THEIR DIRECTOR AS THEY PREPARE FOR AN ADJUDICATED PERFORMANCE Stephen W. Miles Doctor of Philosophy, 2012 Dissertation directed by: Professor Francine Hultgren Department of Teaching and Learning, Policy and Leadership College of Education University of Maryland This hermeneutic phenomenological inquiry is called by the question: What are the lived experiences of high school band students and their director as they prepare for an adjudicated performance? While there are many lenses through which the phenomenon of music preparation and music making has been explored, a relatively untapped aspect of this phenomenon is the experience as lived by the students themselves. The experiences and behaviors of the band director are so inexorably intertwined with the student experience that this essential contextual element is also explored as a means to understand the phenomenon more fully. Two metaphorical constructs – one visual, one musical – provide a framework upon which this exploration is built. As a prism refracts a single color of light into a wide spectrum of hues, views from within illumine a variety of unique perspectives and uncover both divergent and convergent aspects of this experience. Polyphony (multiple contrasting voices working independently, yet harmoniously, toward a unified musical product) enables understandings of the multiplicity of experiences inherent in ensemble performance. Conversations with student participants and their director, notes from my observations, and journal offerings provide the text for phenomenological reflection and interpretation. The methodology underpinning this human science inquiry is identified by Max van Manen (2003) as one that “involves description, interpretation, and self-reflective or critical analysis” (p.

  • Emplacing and Excavating the City: Art, Ecology, and Public Space in New Delhi
    Transcultural Studies 2015.1 75 Emplacing and Excavating the City: Art, Ecology, and Public Space in New Delhi Christiane Brosius, Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg Every claim on public space is a claim on the public imagination. It is a response to the questions: What can we imagine together?… Are we, in fact, a collective; is the collective a site for the testing of alternatives, or a ground for mobilising conformity? (Adajania 2008) Introduction Contemporary art production can facilitate the study of a city’s urban fabric, its societal change, and its cultural meaning production; this is particularly the case when examining exhibition practices and questions of how, why, when, where, and by whom artworks came to be emplaced and connected to certain themes and concepts.* Emplacement here refers to the process of constructing space for certain events or activities that involve sensory and affective aspects (Burrell and Dale 2014, 685). Emplacing art thus concerns a particular and temporary articulation of and in space within a relational set of connections (rather than binaries). In South Asia, where contemporary “fine art”1 is still largely confined to enclosed spaces like the museum or the gallery, which seek to cultivate a “learned” and experienced audience, the idea of conceptualising art for and in rapidly expanding and changing cities like Delhi challenges our notions of place, publicness, and urban development. The particular case discussed here, the public art festival, promises—and sets out—to explore an alternative vision of the city, alternative aspirations towards “belonging to and participating in” it.2 Nancy Adajania’s question “What can we imagine together” indirectly addresses which repositories and languages are available and can be used for such a joint effort, and who should be included in the undertaking.

I liked its raw state; film posters adverts still hanging up from films premiered months prior. The brutal reality of the site in baring its bones. The paper cranes left by the schoolchildren. The Holocaust Museum along with the Anne Frank Haus spoke to me; the stories behind the lives of these beautiful people subjected to nothing but hate for who they loved and who they were. The educational component to the Holocaust Museum in D.C. spoke volumes to me. To follow the journey of a Holocaust victim... For Pulse, I see a blend of all of this. To learn the stories of why so many sought refuge and enjoyment there. Why did so many leave their "families"? Because they could not be who they were. I find it is important that we teach this lesson-it's okay to be who you are-we have your back-we love you-we will dance with you-in any form of structure.
