Capital Punishment: Are Men More Supportive Than Women?
[ send me this essay ]
7 pages in length. Capital punishment was not only implemented as a painful means of death, but it was also a way of demonstrating one's mistakes in front of the community. It was a grand way in which the guilty not only paid for their crimes by forfeiting their lives, but it also served as a way to forcible inflict extreme humiliation while they suffered imminent death. The presumption was that those who witnessed such an act of barbaric magnitude would refrain from committing any such crimes themselves. It can easily be argued that the origins of capital punishment held a triple purpose: to kill the convicted by torturous measures; to maintain order within the community by way of intimidation; and to provide entertainment for the masses. The writer discusses who supports capital punishment in contemporary society and addresses the whether or not men are more likely to advocate an eye for an eye. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Case Study: Negligent Teacher
[ send me this essay ]
8 pages in length. A teacher's fundamental task is often incorrectly construed as being one of instruction; while education is, in fact, a primary function of every teacher, it is not necessarily the important, particularly when the classroom is full of children. The notion of supervision then becomes equally as essential a responsibility as any lessons the students may be taught. When teachers fail to uphold this responsibility and leave a room of unattended children, they open themselves up to a litany of legal problems with such a breach of duty.
