Africa is Not a Country: Education and Children's Literature About the African Continent in the Age of Obama
With the election of Barack Obama, a leader with family in Kenya, educators could find themselves rethinking and revising how they teach the continent of Africa.

Delaware Defensive Driving Courses: Saving Money And Lives By David Faulkner The State of Delaware offers its drivers, with its Delaware defensive driving courses, the opportunities to better their driving skills while both lowering their automobile insurance premiums and improving their driving records. But for some drivers, the Delaware defensive driving courses are not optional; they are required by the court. Those individuals who successfully complete one of the Delaware defensive driving courses at the court’s insistence may often have the record of their driving misdeeds expunged.
Other drivers may volunteer to take the refresher Delaware defensive driving courses who exchange three hours of their time for a chance at having their automobile insurance premiums reduced between ten and fifteen percent. And residents of Delaware who volunteer for the six-hour Delaware defensive driving courses not only qualify for a ten percent insurance premium reduction; they can have as many as three points expunged from their driving histories. Most of the Delaware defensive driving courses, which are similar to those in other states, are approved by the Delaware Department of Motor Vehicles.
The Delaware defensive driving courses are designee to teach people to drive defensively, so that they know how to anticipate and respond to any potentially dangerous traffic situations or road conditions or hazards. While all driver courses teach students the rules of the road and an understanding of the right of way, Delaware defensive driving courses teach students how to react when their
None of the Delaware defensive driving courses will ever recommend aggression as the correct response to any road situation. Many people who are driving at night become annoyed when the drivers of vehicles traveling toward them fail to switch off their high beams, and switch on their own high beams in response.
All that does is to leave both drivers struggling to see as they pass one another with inches separating their vehicles. A much more effective, and useful defensive driving response would be for the first driver to briefly switch on the high beams to get the attention of the oncoming driver and hope he takes the hint by turning his own high beams off.
It’s OK To Back Off
The majority of Delaware defensive driving instructors will even advise their students to take defensive actions when they see an aggressive driver’s actions leading them into an developing, even if the accident will not be their fault. Fault is of little importance to those awaiting the arrival for the ambulance, and if a defensive attitude will prevent that, it has done its job.
Anyone riding in your car will not mind if by letting the aggressive driver have the right of way you avoid the accident altogether. And accident avoidance is want he Delaware defensive driving courses are all about.
