Answer:

Vote centers

Explanation:

In 2005, the Texas legislature approved county-level decisions to move from traditional, neighborhood precinct polls to vote centers. All voters in counties that allow it can vote in these centers in the general election, regardless of their address, so they can choose the most convenient location.

1) Based on the map which of these appears to be MOST true?
Mrac [35]
  • The most true statement is that <u>D) </u><u>Shia Muslims</u><u> appear to be the </u><u>minority group</u><u> within </u><u>Islam</u><u>.</u>

  • The best explanation for the split between Sunni and Shia is that it was over<u> D) A </u><u>disagreement </u><u>over the</u><u> leadership</u><u> of the</u><u> Islamic  world</u><u> </u><u>after </u><u>the </u><u>death </u><u>of the </u><u>prophet Muhammad.</u>

The map is not included but it is accurate that the Shia are a minority in Islam because:

  • Sunnis comprise 87%  - 90% of all Muslims
  • Shia comprise 10% - 13% of all Muslims

The Shia are therefore heavily outnumbered by the Sunni who have used their dominant position to occasionally marginalize the Shia.

The reason the Shia and the Sunni split was because they could not agree on who would lead the Muslims after the Prophet Muhammed died. Sunni wanted a man named Abu Bakr to lead and the Shia wanted Ali ibn Abi Ṭalib.

In conclusion, Islam has two main denominations which are the Sunni and the Shia but the Sunni outnumber of Shia who had split from the Sunni because they could not accept their choice for Muhammed's successor.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of literature
Artist 52 [7]
Proponents of literature-based instruction usually focus on the importance of using authentic literature, rather than the "canned" variety found in basal textbooks and other programs. Books that are written to teach children to read tend to be boring, contrived and less vibrant than authentic literature. Authentic literature can also open doors for students by introducing them to different cultures, social structures and story lines.

Advantage: Higher Level Thinking Skills

Many teachers choose literature-based instruction because they feel that it addresses higher level thinking skills than basal level instruction. Rather than forcing children to give pat answers to basic questions about a story, literature-based instruction encourages children to think deeply and share their thoughts about a story. Reading authentic literature can improve vocabulary, reading comprehension, reading ability and language growth. In addition, literature-based instruction is much more child-centered, with the teacher as the facilitator or coach, rather than "the sage on the stage."

Disadvantage: Teacher's Perspective

From the teacher's perspective, teaching using a literature-based approach can be more difficult than using other approaches. First-time teachers may find it especially challenging, since literature-based approaches inherently have less structure than many other approaches. Teachers also may struggle with effectively assessing a child's progress. Because literature-based instruction is less widely used than other forms of instruction, teachers often spend hours choosing literature selections, as well as developing activities and evaluations that reflect the content.

Disadvantage: Scope and Sequence

Finding appropriate literature selections that address the skills that students need to learn can be challenging, and finding selections that actually build from one year to the next is virtually impossible. This means that using literature-based instruction may prevent students from building their skills in a systematic fashion, and they may miss out on some skills entirely. Especially as students advance to the next grade, they will feel a lack of continuity, which can prevent them from growing as readers, writers and thinkers.
