JCCS Academic Language Assessment Week 28 - Truant Students

Should Global Positioning System (GPS) devices be required for habitually truant students?   I think it shouldn't. In my opinion chipping someone with a GPS just seem a little too irrational. I think for this for many reasons; for example, to be chipped by someone so they know at all times where you are seems unnecessary to me because even though truant students should be kept supervised putting a GPS chip on them is going to the extremes. The element of this all is students ditching and not attending school. This isn't a good thing but it can be resolved by doing other things. To restrain their conduct schools should just call their parents to inform them that their kid hasn't attended school. This administers that they're others ways to control the situation besides using a GPS system on students.

HW/A: Academic Language Written Assessment Week 26 3/7

Drug sniffing dogs are very helpful to the police since they help with finding out if suspects are carrying illegal drugs or if their innocent. Do I think police officers should have drug sniffing dogs? Well in a way I do think they should carry dogs. This helps them search the suspect if they assume that they have drugs. The process of this is to help citizens to stay away from illegal drugs this includes mostly minors. The  response of this at first might not be good because unfortunely some people are scared of dogs but it should helpful when it comesto proving your innocense if your not carrying drugs with you.

HW: Choices 26C Week 26 3/10

If cows would give root bear instead of milk I would not like cows. I like milk a lot, I drink milk with cereal, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and well pretty much anything. Root bear is not something I like. Iv'e always not been a fan of it since I always felt like it tastes like toothpaste? I wouldn't enjoy the idea that root bear comes from a cow, so milk fits it better.

HW/A: Academic Language Written Assessment Week 26 3/7

Would I want to have a car that drives itself? hmm... maybe. Having a car drive itself might have some good qualities to it. For example, it might be a method to be a safer driver. Normal drivers are sometimes distracted or even intoxicated and I think a computerized car might be a smarter driver. Also drivers usually decide to text drive and then car accidents occur. Having the car drive for you will help you not be unfocused while your driving and when you are the car would have your back. This type of technology will help with less accidents on the road and help it proceed into improving safe driving in the future.
