The Chipper Series

The Chipper Series

1. Chippers work isn't late because the present is the future.

    a) Although her work is late it is still done.  She obviously understood how to do the work.

    b) Although she understood the assignment there was a deadline to be met and that deadline was NOT met.  Therefore, the assignment was not completed as assigned. 

    c) I do agree that she completed the assignment and should get credit.  However, I feel that because it was late she should only get partial credit.

2. Procrastination

    a) Yes, we all procrastinate, but that does not mean it can be late.

    b) Just because you plan on doing something does not mean its done.

    c) We will all procrastinate but we also have to meet the deadline.

3. Chipper wants to be taught so that she doesn't have to learn.

    a) It's hard to figure out how to do something on your own, and thats why we have teachers.

    b) On the other hand, if we teach ourselves how to do something the chances of us forgetting how to do it are slim to none since you took the time out to teacher YOURSELF.

    c) We all need guidance, and I think many of us think take guidance as the teacher should show us exactly how to do something.  Guidance are the steps we need and we should take the information that they give us and put the pieces together for ourselves.

4. Chipper drops out of school

    a) She just simply did not want to help herself and blamed it on the teacher.

    b) A teacher's job is it show and explain how to do something.  Not do it for you

    c) You have to work hard to get what you want.  Nothing comes easy

5. Timeline Pilot School

    a) Yes it would be nice to go to school that allows you to only go when it is convient for you, but thats not the way the world works.

    b) You must have enough experience to actually do the job, and proof as well.

    c) I would not want someone who "thinks" they are certified to do a certain job! I want proof

6. Chipper includes simulation into her Timeline Pilot School.

    a) Incorporating simulation can only help people learn. By no mean will it hurt.

    b) However, Simulation is not hands on.

    c) Simulation is a great idea for anything, but who wants someone who has never had hands on working around them.  That could and would be a total disaster.

7. Chippers student Amelia

    a) It's great that the simulation taught her how to use the basic tools to fly.

    b) Simulation, however, is not flying.  Its nothing more than a video game.  This is why the FAA will not give her a license.

    c) I wouldn't give her a license either.  You must spend more than a month on learning how to fly, and you must have hands on experience.

8. The FAA shuts Timeline down

    a) I have no supporting positions.  I agree that they should have shut it down.

    b) As I have already stated, simulation is nothing more than an in depth video game.

    c) I would have never let an individual open a school for flight that consisted of only simulation and whatever hours they would like to attend.

9. Ms. Wright Fires Chipper

    a) Yes, we all have busy lives, but being a teacher is not just a job. Its a career and responsibility.

    b) Being a teacher is much more than people realize.  Your first priority is the students. Not your boyfriends feelings.

    c) You have to want to be a teacher.  This is not a job. Its a love and career.

10. Chipper becomes a waitress

    a) We are human and we do make mistakes.  Everyone drops things.

    b) You must try not to make mistakes right in front of people no matter what your job is, and if you do you must try your best to fix them.  Do not make a joke of it, because your costumers will not find it funny.  This applies to any job or career.

    c) You are to try your best to do your job correctly.  You must give your all no matter whether you like your job or not.  You signed up for it.

11. Chipper becomes a nanny

    a) Yes, if you are a nanny children will watch some television.

    b) No, you can not leave the children in front of the televison all day as you play on facebook.  The parents that your are being a nanny for hired you so that they don't have to sit in front of the t.v all day, but to have interaction, exercise and learn information of any kind.  You are more or less being paid to be their friend.

    c) No matter what you do in life, you will always have responsibilities.  That is life. Who wants someone who doesn't care to be in charge of anything, and especially their children? I know I wouldn't!

12. Chipper becomes a Garbage Collector

    a) I suppose she is trying and it is a job.

    b) This is not a honorable or ladies job.  Who really wants to be a garbage collector? Nobody.

    c) I'm sorry she had to go this far to learn that she should have never quit school, but some people like to learn the hard way.

13. Chipper decides to go back to school

    a) This is the best idea she could've had since the video started.

    b) She has to start all over again just because she was hard headed. Nothing is ever going to be easy, because that's just they way it is and always has been. Life is a short and full of obstacles.

    c) You go to school and work hard to get a career you love and work hard.  Its all about working hard to get what you want
