"I was born in Sendai (Miyagi prefecture), one of the biggest cities in Japan. According to the Sendai City official homepage, the city had population of 1,008,130 in 2006. A few months after my birth, I was sent to my grandparents in Kouriyama (Fukushima prefecture). This was due to the fact that my father was busy and had to devote all his time to studying for the national bar exam; while my mother was working to support him. Kouriyama is also a large city with a population of 189,710. I returned to my parents at the age of one, after my mother decided to leave her current job and our family moved to Takahata, Yamagata, to assist in the family business."

"2. Community college has offered me an ideal transition from my home country to the American university experience. I feel that had I entered straight away to a large four-year university that I would not have been able to develop the problem-solving and leadership skills I have developed in community college. Also, the community college environment includes a supportive student body and faculty who are sympathetic to my needs as a minority and as a low-income student. Many other students at the community college are also from low-income and minority families. This has helped me meet people and make friends, and build the confidence I needed to participate in class and in group activities. The college also offers many courses for students who need to improve their English skills, and these have also helped me to succeed."

Abstract
This paper discusses school shootings in America, focusing on the case of Luke Woodham and his violent acts in October of 1998. The paper explains that this case is used as an example of criminal acts that are conducted by children and the case is examined through social learning theory. The paper explores the foundations of social learning theory and arguments against this theory in relation to school shootings are also discussed. Furthermore, the paper examines how social learning theory can be used as a predictor of school violence and then discusses the prevention techniques that have been offered and that must be implemented in order to address the issue. In conclusion, the paper shows that for the criminal justice system and society as whole it is evident that the only answer to school shootings and violence is to begin to work together in a manner that allows for preventative measures to be taken and for children to once again have faith that the adults who are supposed to protect them will and that the world that is supposed to be supportive of them will function to accomplish that mission.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"In the case of Woodham and the murders that occurred in Mississippi, it is evident that the conditions described through social learning theory existed and that these conditions contributed to the actions taken by the juvenile. For example, early in his life Woodham became engrossed in the philosophy used by Hitler. It was not difficult for Woodham to witness the results of Hitler's philosophies, as those results are consistently present in the social order as a matter of social history. Woodham was capable of retaining these events because they were constantly reinforced through exposure to the ideas discussed in relation to Hitler through the people that he knew and the studies that he personally conducted."

Zipf's Law and Benford's Law, 2007.

1,279 words (approx. 5.1 pages), 4 sources, MLA, £ 30.95
»

Abstract
This paper addresses both Zipf's Law and Benford's Law. It describes the theories of each law in detail and discusses how they can be applied to various situations. It describes Zipf's Law as not a theoretical law, but rather an experimental law. The paper then discusses the significance of these two laws to the field of mathematics.
From the Paper
"However, there is some lack of precision where this is concerned. Most items have to occur a number of times that is actually an integer (Li, n.d.). In other words, a word that is seen within a document cannot appear in that document 2.5 number of times. It either must appear, in this example, 2 times or three times, since there cannot be an area of the document where only 1/2 of the word appears. Despite the fact that there is some variation and lack of precision, however, when wide ranges are examined and one only desires to have a relatively close approximation, many of the natural phenomena that are seen in this world do obey Zipf's law (Li, n.d.). This is seen to hold true as long as the individual examining the issue is not looking for scientific precision and will accept the slight variation that is seen."

The applicant describes her skills and knowledge that would make her ideal for the program and ends with discussing why this program is her first choice.
From the Paper
"I am a perfect candidate for a lifelong career in Graphic Design. I have already pointed out my artistic and academic prowess, as well as the desire to succeed in the field. I am a born leader with great communication skills. I am a committed, hard worker, and I thrive on the energy of a buzzing workplace. Contrary to the stereotype of an "Artist", I am a shrewd businesswoman, am highly motivated, and can fit in as well at a board meeting as a coffeehouse. My customer service skills are well honed, and I already posses the skill to analyze a client's needs and personal style to produce the highest quality interpretation of the clients vision. This is the essence of the Graphic Design field, and I feel that I have spent my whole life preparing to enter it. The only step left for me is college."

Examines the existing and significant relationship between school culture and school safety.
32,586 words (approx. 130.3 pages), 101 sources, MLA, £ 172.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This is a quantitative research study that is designed to assess the impact of school culture on school safety and school violence. The paper looks at what schools can do to create proper environments that are conducive to safety and whether there are identifiable behaviors within school culture that contribute to safety. The paper also analyzes the perceptions of teachers and administrators about school culture and order.
From the Paper
"Another important point that is stressed when looking at school culture and safety is the fact that strong leaders generally make an effort to express sincere feelings toward students and their lives, and have a real belief that the students have the potential to become successful and productive adults (Kenworthy & O'Driscoll, 2000). Effective leaders create effective schools that are resilient to violence and other risks and promote resiliency in students."

Public Schools vs. Private Schools, 2005.
A look at the accusation that public schools do not produce graduates capable of living and working successfully in their own culture.
3,100 words (approx. 12.4 pages), 9 sources, APA, £ 62.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper attempts to demonstrate that private schools succeed at preparing graduates to succeed after graduation, whereas public schools do not. The paper puts forth the hypothesis that private schools teach their students to succeed, not because of a great deal of money poured into education, but because the schools are free to teach the curricula they choose and because they prepare students to return to their own cultures and succeed. The paper further hypothesizes that public schools, on the other hand, are not free to teach curricula not aimed at improving standardized test scores, and the successful public school student is not prepared to return to his or her culture in a trade, but to transition out of it into an anachronistic academic culture.
Introduction
Hypothesis
Review of the Literature
Education and Culture

Outmoded Educational Model
Would Vo-tech be a Better Public School Goal?
Developing the Person Instead of the Mind
Opposition to Change in Public Schools
Alternatives to Public and Private School
Methodology
From the Paper
"There are two, or possibly even three, co-existent educational systems in the United States. The largest of these is the public education system, followed by the private schools and increasingly popular home-schooling. The third system will be mentioned only tangentially, as the real problems with U.S. education are considered to reside in the public schools. In recent decades, there have been various schemes put forth regarding vouchers for families who want to send their children to private schools but cannot afford the fees; none of these has borne fruit. In any case, it is doubtful that the private schools could absorb the numbers of students who would want to attend if vouchers were a reality. The problem with the public schools has been identified by most of the public and by many researchers as one of curriculum."

Case Law and Statute Law, 2005.
A theoretical comparison of these two sources of English law.
834 words (approx. 3.3 pages), 2 sources, MLA, £ 20.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper attempts to define the differences between England's common and statute laws. It looks at how the laws are formed as well as their fundamental purpose. It examines how statute is interpreted and acted upon by the courts and how it follows that precedents are formed as new cases arise. It also demonstrates how over time, statute will become part of common law as judges follow previous decisions in new cases where applicable.
From the Paper
"For political bills or proposals to become statute, that is to become Acts of Parliament, they must first be debated in the House of Commons (this is made up of elected representatives of the wider public, Members of Parliament or MPs). However, this is just the start if the process: the proposed legislation must then be accepted by MPs by way of a successful vote and further ratified by acceptance in the House of Lords. The House of Lords is the supreme court in Britain and may refuse to pass the law; but a bill can be forced through using the Parliament Act if such action is deemed necessary for Parliament to fulfil its obligation to make laws in the best interests of the nation.

Home School vs. Public School, 2004.
An opinion paper that states reasons why home-schooling is a better option for one's children.
1,325 words (approx. 5.3 pages), 7 sources, MLA, £ 30.95
»
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
This paper presents arguments on both sides for and against home-schooling. It explains the benefits of parents being the main educators for their children, but also cites reasons, such as social development of the children, being affected. The paper concludes, however, that home-schooling could be the best option for specific people and that the system produces well-balanced children. Includes a thorough annotated bibliography and many sources attached at the end of the paper.
From the Paper
"Each year more and more home schoolers are rising to the top of their fields and are being regarded as choice recruits for major colleges and universities across the country. Studies have proven that overall home educated children are more mature, well-balanced, and more confident than children educated in the public school system. What appears to be crucial to their success is the one-on-one relationship with the parent-teacher and the opportunity to learn as they are ready."

Abstract
This paper discusses how education is one of the most important goods in our society. A person's educational achievements to a large extent determine how their life will be, while the educational system a country fosters determines its economic outcomes to a large extent. The paper further discusses how that in Canada, most education is provided by the government and many people would argue that this is the way it should be, as it is only government that has the resources and expertise to take on this important role
