Modifications that increase task difficulty are also presented to assist instructors in structuring developmental progressions for activities that reflect various net/wall games. For example, game modifications that require participants to strike a ball with a hand after a bounce are introduced before requiring participants to strike a ball with a racquet or with a hand without a bounce. References: |
A common strategy in education in general is progressively increasing the complexity of tasks. In the context of physical education, Mandigo and Anderson (2003) describe approaches to modifying net/wall games to help instructors in putting together developmental progressions where the task difficulty increases at each step.

You could even skip the debate and simply concentrate on getting letters to candidates. The key is to act. Concentrate on two or three issues at the most. If you write on twelve topics, you dissipate the effect. Keep the letter short, one page if possible, two at the most. Your lawmakers and their staffs are busy and are not likely to do more than glance at a long letter. References: |
There are many ways to participate in the electoral process. Town hall debates are often open to the public in smaller elections. These debates may provide opportunities for the public to ask questions directly. However, “you could even skip the debate and simply concentrate on getting letters to candidates” since the letter writing approach is not dependent on being able to get access to limited microphone time (Simon, 2003). |

For example, game modifications that require participants to strike a ball with a hand after a bounce are introduced before requiring participants to strike a ball with a racquet or with a hand without a bounce. References: |
One strategy for changing a task to decrease difficulty comes from physical education where “game modifications that require participants to strike a ball with a hand after a bounce are introduced before requiring participants to strike a ball with a racquet or with a hand without a bounce” (Mandigo & Anderson, 2003, p. 9). A participant may then be able to focus on other aspects of the game (e.g., strategy) or find that their anxiety about playing has decreased. References: |

Educational processes and systems are complex, and any attempt to measure them, especially at this level of aggregation, can only lead to broad and general discussions. However, we contend that this discussion is necessary. Further, attempting to measure global processes in education may provide another puzzle piece to theoreticians as well as national and local policy-makers, who are working at understanding and, in the latter case, steering educational systems. References: |
There are many factors that researchers and policy makers seeking to understand and/or direct educational systems must consider. Given the complexity of education, measurements based on aggregating a large amount of data preclude associated discussions from focusing on narrow and specific details. |

The fact that the day of Queen Victoria’s funeral coincides with the birth of the narrator may, on the one hand, signify the cultural moment when Victorian decency and codes of femininity are left behind, buried, and put to rest, and in this way, it can be interpreted as a moment when even certain untold stories can be told. On the other hand, however, it may also foretell something of a story in which matrilineage is unnaturally broken; also, it tells us about the permeability of the border between, and about the coexistence of, life and death. References: |
Séllei (2009) provides two different points of view on the meaning of the fact that the funeral of Queen Victoria is the same day as the narrator’s birth. I find it very interesting that she suggests that the date may “signify the cultural moment when Victorian decency and codes of femininity are left behind” (Séllei, 2009, p. 171). References: |

While solitary negative reactions or unjustified suggestions for change have the potential to dissipate discourse rather than build it, the pattern analysis shows that the anonymous condition seemed to provide a safe explorative space for learners to try out more reasons for their multiple solutions. Teachers will rarely give anonymous feedback, but the experience of giving anonymous feedback may open a social space where learners can try out the reasons for their suggestions. References: |
Teachers don’t often provide feedback anonymously, but the ability to provide feedback anonymously may create a context where the rationale associated with specific suggestions can be more safely explored (Howard, Barrett, & Frick, 2010). However, we cannot assume that all anonymous online spaces will serve as safe social spaces. |

No matter how kindly voters treat the panderer in the voting booth, the public overwhelmingly believes that candidates will say one thing to get elected and then ignore their pledges once in office. This lack of sincerity, to the extent that happens, reduces public confidence in government. Candidates should say what they believe. At the same time, the public should demand that candidates speak frankly and truthfully about issues of concern, and it must understand that once a person is elected and looks at the fact in much greater detail, changes in attitude do and should occur. References: |
The relationship between voters and candidates is a complicated one. For example, the vast majority of the public is convinced that candidates will promise anything to be elected and then pay no attention to their promises once elected (Simon, 2003). Such a state of affairs sets low expectations for those running for office. |

Simon (2003) points out the importance of keeping letters to candidates short: “one page if possible, two at the most” (p. 125). Similar advice for blogging about political issues seems appropriate. I would advise that a blogger concentrate on two or three issues at the most. If you write on twelve topics, you dissipate the effect. References: |

The way the U.S. judicial system works, a defendant is first found to be innocent or guilty. The punishment sentence is determined only after a defendant has been found guilty. It might seem that this is a relatively minor procedural issue. Yet, the order of this decision-making can mean the difference between life and death, or even between conviction and acquittal. References: |
Innocent or guilty courtroom decisions are often high-stakes. However, the precise consequences of the verdict is unknown in U.S. judicial systems when the guilt versus innocence decision is being made. Dixit and Nalebuff (1991) explain that this order of decision-making “can mean the difference between life and death, or even between conviction and acquittal” (p. 270). References: |

If learners are new to critique, we see anonymity as a scaffold to generating critical feedback. Learners can practice giving feedback knowing they are not vulnerable to social repercussions. Less than perfect expressions, unwarranted negative reactions, and fruitless ideas are bound to be part of novice feedback, but teachers hope to create learning configurations that support both the giver and the receiver of feedback, especially if the commenters are novices. References: |
If providing peer feedback is a skill to be learned then perhaps it is advisable to give learners opportunities to practice giving feedback knowing they are not vulnerable to social repercussions. In this way, anonymity can act “as a scaffold to generating critical feedback” (Howard, Barrett, & Frick, 2010, p. 104). References: |
