What Have I Learned From The Socratic Seminar

The Socratic Seminar did help me in many ways and I think did learn to all the class a new way of teaching ideas to each other. From this Socratic Seminar we did learn from each other point of view.

During the Socratic Seminar I have learned:

• A new way of teaching ideas to each other
• How to share our ideas
• We learned each other point of view on every question

This are the most helpful ideas that I learned from the Socratic Seminar

US And UN Struggle To Distribute Haiti Aid

About 20 American military Black Hawk helicopters have descended on the ruined grounds of Haiti’s presidential palace.Troops unloaded equipment, water and food rations, raising hopes that it would become a forward base for the distribution of aid.Since the earthquake a week ago, Haitians desperate for life’s basics, and frustrated by the lack of aid reaching them, have posed an increasing headache for security services.Overstretched UN peacekeepers dispersed a crowd of survivors who were searching for anything, from water to a mat to sleep on.The Haitian police too have had their work cut out as lawlessness spreads throughout the capital Port au Prince. Shots rang out as scores of Haitians raided a destroyed hardware shop. And to help bring some semblance of normality back to Haiti’s streets, the UN Security Council has unanimously agreed to send 3.500 more troops and police in the hope they will afford some relief to the security forces already there.

Pros and Cons

From the successes:

• The union is restored and I think this is a great success and the most important for me
• The south economy is growing up and it will help them reconstruct what the north had destroyed during the war
• The 14th and 15th amendments will help the African Americans enjoy life for the first time in USA
• This Bureau is a very good creation because it will help the blacks have rights among the whites
• To have a mandatory education is a very good because some families do not have money to send their child to school

From the Failures:

• Many southerners stood democrats and the republicans and federals were doing there jobs for nothing
• The south will not gain a lot of money because they are slow in industrializing
• It is sad that Terrorists did not let the African Americans vote for their next President
• Many people became poor because of the war they lost job opportunities
•
