From the Paper
"In retrospect, it is unusual for me to look over my life story through the present analysis and evaluate myself and my own behaviors. It was interesting for me to relive the moments that have defined my evolution and the arrangement of my family hierarchy. It was certainly in some ways difficult to recall events in an objective manner, as the memory of early youth may be tainted by emotions. There is also the fact that, as a child, I was not able to observe the family dynamics in the same way that an adult might - important events were no doubt shielded from me by my parents and older siblings. However, this phenomenon is universal to children in general. We are all subject to good and bad childhood events, and are made blind to such happenings at the same time. At the same time we all as adults recall past events in the haze of a positive or negative memory - particularly memories of adolescence, which is universally a trying stage of one's life."

From the Paper
"Differing notions of experience divide philosophers John Dewey and John Locke. The views of both have meaning in terms of such human endeavors as scientific inquiry and relate to scientific meaning.
Locke's view of experience sees the world as preexisting and the mind as learning from experience. Locke believes that the mind at birth is a tabula rasa, a blank slate, and it is only through experience that knowledge is gained. Any knowledge possessed by the individual would be knowledge gained through experience. In the beginning, however, the individual has no experience. In the Garden of Eden, when Eve has experience of reaching for the extended red apple, it is a new one, the outcome of which will teach her a lesson she could not have gained otherwise. She has been told not to perform this action, and yet ..."

From the Paper
"John Cheever and John Updike have both been cited as writers of American suburbia, and indeed they do delve into that area of American life in their works. The writers are very different in their style, tone, and the subject matter they tackle, however, and should not be mistaken for one another by any careful reader. They come from different generations as well, and yet Cheever's suburbia, holds the promise of a new form of the American dream, but, is treated by the author as the thing that destroys it. Updike's suburbia is treated more as a simple fact of modern life, although his characters find it difficult living up to the expectations of suburban life. An examination of several stories by each writer can show some of the ways each approaches their subject matter, their stylistic concerns, and their differences as writers."

Abstract
An extreme contrast can be observed between the bereaved Peter at the beginning of the film, "Finding Neverland", as opposed to the Peter who once again suffers loss at the end. The pattern of Peter's relationships conforms perfectly to John Bowlby's concepts of attachment, separation and loss. This paper analyzes the relationships of the main character, Peter, in the film "Finding Neverland", a story loosely based on the real life story of J.M. Barrie, the author of "Peter Pan". The analyses are based on John Bolwby's theories of attachment, separation, and loss.

Introduction
Building Fully-Developed Human Beings
Conclusion
From the Paper
"Research has shown that it is during the first few years of a child's life that cognitive capabilities, relational understanding, language, motor skills and emotional regulation are all developed and enhanced, and that each of these element acts as an important influencing factor in character formation and development. In fact, these first experiences, according to many professionals, are significant building blocks that form the foundation from which springs all future individual development (Barnes P., Personal, Social and Emotional Development, 1992)."

Abstract
This paper offers a broad overview of what has been read in a psychology course focusing upon childhood development. The paper specifically notes the persistent confusion among academics with regard to the phenomenology of childhood psychopathology. It also reviews Bowlby's four phase developmental model in the maturation of the mother-child relationship.
From the Paper
"We have been fortunate during the course of our studies this year to have read a number of excellent materials relating to early childhood development. The following paper will summarize what I have read and what I have gleaned from our course readings. Most of all, what I hope the reader will take away from the following pr?is of our course work is a recognition that academics agree on many things in the area of childhood development, however much they may disagree about the particulars. Beyond that, my interpretation of our course material leaves me with the distinct impression that much of what we are is not shaped by our genetic predispositions but by our external environment. While it is wrong to take the view that human children are "blank slates" upon which can be written anything ..."

From the Paper
"This study will describe and compare the main characters in John Gardner's October Light, John Barth's The Floating Opera, and Philip Roth's The Counterlife. The study will consider the ways the protagonists in these novels deal with reality, life, death and suicide. Essentially, the study will argue that, despite the differences in the lifestyles, philosophies, and personalities of the three protagonists, they are finally quite comparable in terms of the ways they relate to life and death. The differences remain, but at heart each of the main characters have a cynical, skeptical, absurd, or otherwise generally negative attitude toward reality and life, and each of them are struggling in various ways to arrive at some perspective which would allow them to, at the very least, be more accepting of life and death."

Abstract
The paper offers responses to four set questions, the first on Attachment theory and its implications, the second on infant studies involving visual attention and another on memory, en route to a fourth topic involving some of the foregoing. This last question discusses the digital age and its effects on child development, in educational settings and in terms of the impact of violent video games.
From the Paper
"Psychoanalysts had assumed that the child's first human relationship was close to the foundation of the personality. In the first year of life, almost all infants have a strong tie to a mother-figure. (Bowlby: 1969:177) Bowlby and others given to the attachment theory worked with post-World War II generations in developed Western countries. They saw what happened in nature and could link attachment models to the young animal's need to attach to the mother in order to keep up with the herd."

Abstract
The New Testament contains many witnesses to Jesus Christ, but the testimonies of John in the Fourth Gospel have been among the most influential in the history of Christian theology. In the more than eighteen centuries since its compilation, the Fourth Gospel has been the source of intense interest on the part of those who would better understand how the followers of Jesus came to believe that he was the true Son of God and how and why Jesus accomplished his mission on earth. This study provides a review of the peer-reviewed and scholarly literature concerning the gospel of John, including a survey of the academic literature on the subject since 1948, a description of emerging themes and an assessment of how John 6 is situated within the Gospel. A discussion of Chapter 6 within the Book of Signs and the literary structure of John 6 is followed by a structural analysis of John 6 as a general unit and an analysis of John 6:69 in particular. Finally, a discussion of the context of John 6:69 within the Bread of Life Discourse is followed by a grammatical analysis, a colometric presentation and an interpretation of John 6:69 in the concluding chapter.
Outline:
"The Holy One of God" (John 6:69)

From the Paper
"Conversely, those who believe in Jesus believe in the one who sent him (12:44). The christological claim of the Fourth Gospel, then, has become so identified with its theological claim that it is no longer possible to speak of Jesus apart from the one who sent him, and it is no longer possible to speak of God apart from the Son whom the Father sent into the world. In a footnote, Matera also notes that, "This establishment of Jesus as Son of God does not mean that he became the Son of God at the Resurrection. Rather, it signifies his messianic enthronement as the Son of God, as the phrase en dynamei ("in power") indicates. Previous to his resurrection, Jesus was, as the Markan Gospel insists, the hidden Messiah. But once raised from the dead, he is enthroned as God's royal Messiah, the Son of God, so that who he was is now apparent."

Authorship of the 'Book of John', 2006.
This paper argues the somewhat unusual claim that the 'Gospel of John' was written by Jesus' cousin, John the Baptist.

Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract
The authorship of the 'Gospel of John' has been debated over the centuries, and no one is entirely certain of who wrote it to this day. There is evidence to support various claims of authorship, and this paper argues the case for New Testament figure John the Baptist, cousin of Jesus, as the book's author. Support for this theory comes from a number of sources, including textual evidence in the 'Gospels'. The considerations of the Baptist's identity and background must be considered in this discussion, as well, as 'The Gospel of John' was written in a very different style from the other gospels, which may be reflective of John the Baptist's unique and radically different personality and overall personal style. John the Baptist was Jesus' cousin, son of Elizabeth who was Mary's cousin, and was only 6 months older than Jesus.

Abstract
This paper explores the life and many achievements of the head of the Catholic church, Pope John Paul II. Author Tad Szulc argues in his book "Pope John Paul II, The Biography" that despite a seemingly difficult life and an even more unlikely rise to power, Pope John Paul II played a large role in the collapse of European communism. This paper also details many interesting revelations and historical facts of Pope John Paul II's life.
From the Paper
"Pope John Paul II has never deviated form the rigid principle he set forth with the start of his papacy. He will not stand for any public dissent within the church on matters of Catholic morality, ethics, faith and interpretation. He subsequently banned all controversial theological debates, citing the old Roman adage, causa finita est, meaning, when Rome speaks the matter is closed. Although his appointment seemed a harsh reality, John Paul none the less took up an almost opposite stance when it came to the poor and oppressed, becoming a powerful advocate for third world nations."

Abstract
By using an annotated bibliography of John Dewey's works, or of works that focus upon John Dewey, this paper shows this American philosopher, psychologist, and educational reformer's view of education. John Dewey applied much thought, consideration, observation and research in the area of educational issues and challenged those around him to speculate upon the many dimensions of learning and the theories of his time in relation to the education of children in society and future endeavors that would arise as well.
From the Paper
"Ikeda, D (nd) John Dewey and Tsunesaburo Makiguchi: Confluences of Thought and Action. Online available at: http://www.siu.edu/~deweyctr/jd_makiguchi.pdf
"This work is a paper on the "parallels between the life and thinking of the Japanese educator and activist Tsunesaburo Makiguchi (1871-1944) and the great American philosopher John Dewey (1859-1952)." The writing tells of the similarities in the philosophy of Dewey and Makiguchi relating to experiential learning. Stated in this work is: "As contemporaries, Dewey and Makiguchi shaped and were shaped by the intellectual milieu of the latter half of the nineteenth century, the legacy of Durkheim, Darwin, Hegel and Kant." Further stated is that there exists "important parallels in their attempts to extend the realm of pragmatic thinking; to take it beyond the classroom and institutions of education to the broader framework of building communities and societies; to look with fresh eyes at the role of religion in propelling that effort."

Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that John Lennon was born in Liverpool, England and he is arguably one of the greatest artists of all time. The writer points out that not only was Lennon one of the most influential musicians of his time, he was also a very influential anti-war activist during the Vietnam War. The writer studies the film, 'The U.S. Vs John Lennon', which documents Lennon's life with a particular focus on his anti-war efforts and how the U.S. government responded to these efforts. The writer maintains that the main point in 'The U.S. Vs John Lennon' was to show the lengths that the U.S. government was willing to take to attempt to silence Lennon in speaking out against the Vietnam War.
From the Paper
"In 1972, 18-year olds were given their first chance to vote. Lennon and his friends saw this as a perfect opportunity to hold anti-war protests in order to influence this new class of voters who happened to be the majority of his fan base. The idea was to influence people to vote against the Nixon administration and therefore bring someone else to power who would stop the war. A rock concert tour preaching peace was organized to coincide with the 1972 presidential election tour. Nixon and his administration were determined to not let this happen. In February 1972, a republican senator, Strom Thurmond had the idea that the government could deport Lennon back to England and therefore solve the problem. The majority of the film focuses on the various attempts to deport Lennon and therefore silence his anti-war preaching. The US Vs John Lennon DVD includes a number of outtakes which if included, would have given the film a different perspective."
"There are subtle hints within the film where the creators are attempting to compare the Nixon administration to the Bush administration."
