Community+Service+Learning

What is a citiezen?

I think a citizen is someone among a community who loves the place they live in and if anything creates positive feedback toward there community.

Direct Democracy is where everybody in a place votes on the laws that can be made. The good thing about this is that everybody has a say of what goes on in their place. the bad thing about this is that it takes forever to make laws official since theirs so many people.

Representive Democracy- is when people vote for a person who they feel is the right to represent them and create and pass laws. Strength-Almost all types are heard and considered. Weekness-theree will always be some who disagree with the representitive.

Theocracy-Where god is represented and and highly involved in passing the laws for the government. Strength- Cant blamew anybody because its god's word. Weekness-no opinions are heard and not everybody has the same god.

Single- Party state- where the government has one leader and he makes all the decisions. Strength- is easy to make laws. Weekness-the population would get mad if they cant vote and cant do anything about the said laws. 1. 2. Recent Crime in Malden- This effects the community because the crime causes distress throughout the city and scares the community about going out when its dark 3.Local Aid Funding decrease- this effects the community by putting some of the community workers in Massachusetts out of a job. 4. Regulating Wall Street and Banking- This effects the country's communities because it's making sure that in the future there won't be any middle class and few people will be rich while most of everyone else is poor. 5.Education- this effects the community because the country might take away MCAS so teachers won't have to prepare their students for it

I could make a facebook page and send it to all my friends to bring awareness about crime in Malden

Do Now: 12/15/10 Community issues are some of the issues we work on because its important to keep connected through our own community.

Bullying-Teachers bullying the students, students bullying students, football players bullying band kids,

I think the school budget will win because the community is 465,000 in debt which doesnt leave schools without much money for school clubs and activities.

We ourselves will not steal from the school giving the example to the upcoming freshmen to not steal either causing a cycle of stealing becoming less popular as years go by.
 * Stealing could win because stealing is notorious around the school.

Influence ppl to take pride in what they have. Hallway patrols Build more TRUST Awareness to lock stuff up Stronger locks Awareness of bad thing to steal All lockers have locks Valuables have a safe place Ensure safety. I chose the topic "why do teenagers steal" Perhaps teenagers put out there anger by stealing || " **many teenagers steal** because they believe that they are unloved and do not belong". -angermanagement.com ||
