Thesis
Feminist scholars divided feminism into three different categories. The first movement dealt with women suffrage, the second centred on inequality laws as well as cultural laws and the third is a continuation of what was never achieved by the previous movements. Feminism has become a subculture because not all women still support it. Some women of today found flaws in the beliefs of the feminism culture which no longer good for them. At first the feminist movements were very powerful and their goals were really genuine but today it has become a subculture of women who hate marriage and who still feel men wants to dominate them
First topic
If we view the women's suffrage we see domestic violence and rape being the object of discussion between men and women. Women and children were being abused and had no protection. They were not allowed to work. They belonged to the home thus bearing children and looking after them. Men would even abandon the mother and child. Men dominated women in this era.
Second Topic
We see women have now fought inequality and are now working. Discrimination and segregation is now being practised in the workplace and even in homes. Women get less wages for the same job done by men. There is no maternity leave or pay. Top jobs are for men. During the world wars we see women doing the mens job and when they come back all women are forced to stop working and give the men their jobs back
Third topic
The third movement managed to iron out most of the discrimation and segregation. Governments were forced to amend the discriminatory laws and women now enjoy the same benefits as men. Some women have moved form the feminist group because some of the beliefs being put down by feminist affect marriages and children.
Conclusion
Feminist scholars have seen the changes which took place from the first movement to the last and this is why they put feminism in three categories. Feminism has now grown from a movement to a subculture because some of its goals were achieved and those left behind will take time to be accepted by men. Some of these differences were caused by creation.

Definition : Educated
When one is educated we would look at what level of education does that person has for example did he/she finish high school? Does she have College Education? Is she/he a Professor or Doctor in any discipline? Being educated can be the way you behave and the way you talk should show your level of education and it might or might not acually be one hundred percent but sometimes it is accurate. Educated can be someone who has patience and is prepared to listen and advise accordingly. Educated can be that you did not go to school but the way you accept other people shows you are educated. An educated person potrays all skills required and expected by the society you live in. Society will never know whether you went to school or not but what they see in you is love and the need to help other people in times of difficuly and accepting change when ever you are advised to change by others. An educated person gives room for all w hat is good and is also open to critisim and open to the truth. A truthful person is educated. Always its good to be honest. Good background and foundation can always be seen or potrayed in someone educated. Undermining, discrimination and segregation proves uneducated.

I feel peer review is quite good although I am one of the students who is finding it difficult to move with others. I have not responed as I was expected by others because I feel confused. I really need help.
Subcultures
2. Ndebele
Ndebele are a subculture found in Zimbabwe Africa. They originated from South Africa which is a neighbouring country of Zimbabwe. The Ndebele people fought the Shona who were the rightful owners of Zimbabwe and took a quarter of the country and settled themselves. Their customs and beliefs have continued to be different from the Shona. They have their own ways of dressing and language. They differ from the Shona in many ways

Subcultures
1. The Femminists
2. The Ndebele
The Feminists
I feel feminists are a subculture in a Huge culture because they have a lot to disagree with how women are viewed in society. Feminists see men as dominating them in every aspect of life. According to Warren Farrell, "The more deeply I understood women's experience of powerlessness, the more I assumed men had the power women did not have."(Does Feminism discriminate against men? 2008 p.6). Men can not discriminate women now because this group off women have fought hard to change some of the laws which used to disavantage them. Feminists worked very hard to give women equal rights in work places and even in homes were women are vulnerable.

Research Exercise 2 - Jumping off from the Explaratory Exercise
Topic choice : Roles of Teachers and Parents in Schools
Works Cited - Article One
Gwen L. Rudney. "Every Teacher's Guide to working with Parents" Education Lc226.R83 2005 [ERC]
Sheila Wolfendale. "Empowering Parents and Teachers." Education Lc 225.33 G7 W6yx 1992 [ERC]
Sheldon Marcus and Phillip D. Vairo. "Hot - Button Issues in Today's Schools." Education La210.M328 2006 [ERC]
Summary
Parents and Teachers should develop a positive attitude towards education for their children to achieve good results in school. Working together for this goal will be the best for them to do.
Paraphrase and response
Teachers feel parents should also play a big role in helping their children learn. According to Sheila Wolfendale, "All parents care about their children's welfare and well being. There is sufficient evidence that the tiny minority of parents who appear not to care are those who at the time are overwhelmed by stressful life - events and financial pressure, and whose own experience of schooling was not positive enough for them to overcome fears and anxieties about school and teachers." [Empowering Parents and teachers 7]. There has been some truth that Teachers and Parents point fingers at each other when children fail to do well in school. Instead of accusing each other teachers should advise Parents what is best for their children and parents in turn must accept the advice and compy with it. Children belong to both home and school. Sheldon and Phillip stated, "Principals and Teachers must accept responsibility and be accountable for the performance of the children in their schools." [Sheldon Marcus and Phillip D. Vairo 18]. Infact there is enough evidence the Teachers and Parents must play important roles in educating their children and both need to come together and find ways and means they can fulfil these aims and achieve the goals of education.
Final topic choice
Roles of Parents and Teachers in Schools of Today
Therefore, Roles of Parents and Teachers in Schools of Today will be my final topic. I might find it difficult to express what I would like the Parents and Teachers to do but I would feel satisfied to say the few advice I have about educating children. As a former teacher changing to another major I am happy to go back to Education issues again and try and tell all the experiences I had in being a teacher for 1st graders and 2nd for more than ten years.

Peer Review
1) Peer review should be open because it gives room for discussion on performance improvement.
2) Grammar and punctuation should not be very strict because these two components are very difficult.
3) Writing on same topics will be helpful because we will have to discuss the topics as groups in class on Tuesdays and from the 4-5 topics then each student will then select his or her preference and this will continue to help on performance improvement.
