Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: Answers should focus on the extent to which the issues and trends are resulting in a greater voice for teachers in matters of their profession. This could take the form of more influence on standards for teacher preparation and certification, a greater role in mediated entry, or an enhanced decision-making role in the operations of local schools and school districts. Regardless of the sphere of influence discussed, answers should reflect an understanding that gaining a greater say in educational matters provides teachers with a more professional role and helps education become more similar to professions such as law and medicine.

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: 1) PostWorld War II baby boomers children, 2) current work force reaching retirement age, 3) educational reform for smaller class size, preschool and increase of mathematics and science, 4) new charter schools, 5) current teachers are leaving the profession, and 6) many migrant families are entering the United States.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
