History

Iowa City had a public entity called a “high school” at least as early as 1858, when M. Beals was hired as principal; although Beals’ records do not indicate where classes were held, in 1860 35 boys and 35 girls attended. ^{[3] :161} Buildings that hosted a “high school”, including a junior high school, included a grammar school built in 1893. ^{[3] :160} on the southwest corner of the Central market; ^{[3] :159} and 1903 Iowa City High School on the northeast corner of the same block. ^{[3] :160} The gymnasium in the northwest corner of the block was built in 1911 and included a swimming pool before the university had its own swimming pool. ^{[3] :160} The last high school graduating class in the 1903 building was 1939, and the building was renamed Central Junior High School when the city’s new high school opened in 1939. ^{[3] :160}

City High, Iowa City

City High School was built as part of public works projects, one of many other programs created by Franklin D. Roosevelt with the New Packing Treaty. City High will be the second high school to be built in Iowa City as the old one was becoming overcrowded as the city’s population increased. To determine the school’s new location, Iowa City residents had to vote whether to build the school downtown, closer to the existing high school, or in the neighborhood of Morningside, as the street it would be built on was called, out of town on the city’s east side. The location in Morningside was popular and the school was built on top of a large hill outside the town. Over time, the suburban expansion of the city reached the school, enclosed it, and the city expanded beyond it. The school is now entirely on the east side of Iowa City.

Academics

After graduation, 70% of City High graduates go on to study. Sixty percent attend four-year colleges, 5% junior or community colleges, and 5% trade schools. ^[4] City High is one of the top 10 schools in Iowa for performance. ^[5]

athletics

City High has a rich history in athletics and cross country. Notably, between 1992 and 2004, the junior track and field team won 11 class 4A state titles. Coach John Raffensperger was the head coach for 10 of 11 state titles, being the only coach in Iowa to win 10 state titles. Raffensperger was also awarded the national team coach of the year award. Together, athletics and cross-country programs have allowed since 1989 years old to get 38 state titles and at least 10 finalists. ^{[ citation needed ]}

Sports Illustrated named City High the best sports school in Iowa, citing the school’s dominant cross country, track and field and soccer teams. ^[6] Boys’ and girls’ cross-country skiing teams have won more than 20 state championships since 1990. ^[7] State titles for boys cross country include titles from 1991 to 1994, as well as from 1996, 97, 99 and 2000. ^[7]

John Travolta and other celebrities belonging to the Church of Scientology

February 17, the famous Hollywood actor John Travolta turned 66 years old. During his long career, John has pleased us more than once with excellent movie roles. We saw him in different images and roles. But few people know that Travolta is one of the followers of the Scientology movement. Joined the Church of Scientology John in the distant 1975, when on the set of the film Hell Rain in his hands was John Hubbard’s book Dianetics. A man deeply immersed himself in this religion only 4 years later, after the death of his mother. John’s wife Kelly Preston is also an active member of the Church of Scientology. John has repeatedly said that Scientology opened his eyes to many questions, and also saved his life more than once. It is worth noting that even after Travolta’s son Jett died of Kawasaki syndrome, John did not renounce the church. And this despite the fact that it was Scientology that caused Jett’s death, because it did not recognize traditional medicine and tried to cure the boy with the help of its rites. In honor of John Travolta’s birthday, we remember other celebrities who belong to the Church of Scientology.

Tom Cruise

Perhaps Tom Cruise is one of the most active and famous followers of Scientology. He learned about Hubbard’s teachings through his first wife, Mimi Rogers. Completely immersed in the teachings, Tom does not take a step without the advice of his mentors. Because of this, the actor even lost his family – Katie Holmes did not want to recognize this religion in any way and in every conceivable and inconceivable way tried to get Tom out of there. Conflicts on this basis in the family were regular. As a result, Tom chose Scientology, divorced Kathy and stopped communicating with her, as well as with Suri. The teachings of Hubbard, as Cruz says, only benefited him. Thanks to Scientology, the actor got rid of dyslexia, which had tormented him since childhood.

Will Smith

Will became interested in Hubbard’s teachings through his longtime friend Tom Cruise. Having become more familiar with the teachings of Scientology, Smith stated in an interview that about 98% of the rules of this church coincide with the biblical commandments. Will also spared no expense in building a new Scientology school and wanted to send his children there – history is silent about whether his children did go there. Smith’s wife Jada Pinkett is also a follower of Hubbard’s teachings.

Elisabeth Moss

The Handmaid’s Tale star also believed in Hubbard’s teachings. Only Elizabeth has her own views on Scientology, they even sometimes change from warm to cool, and vice versa. The actress does not unquestioningly observe the rules of the church, expresses her disagreements with religion and does not condemn those who speak of her in a negative way. Elizabeth also considers it normal that the activities of the church are actively discussed in the media space and are vehemently criticized. Despite all this, Elizabeth admitted that it was Scientology that helped her become better, start looking at many things differently and be more tolerant of people. Interestingly, many believe that it was Hubbard’s teaching that caused the actress’s divorce.

Dustin Hoffman

The famous actor has repeatedly spoken out in support of the teachings promoted by the Church of Scientology. When the religion began to be oppressed in Germany, Dustin and other celebrities signed a letter of protest against the persecution of Scientologists. Hoffman also periodically appeared at church meetings, but he never openly identified himself as a follower. Dustin, on the contrary, uses the services of psychologists, whom religion categorically denies and prohibits.

Jennifer Lopez

Jay Lo has been fascinated by Hubbard’s teachings since childhood. This is the fault of her father, who devoted 20 years to this religion. Jennifer periodically attended meetings, listened to the advice of mentors. When the singer was married to Marc Anthony, they were even going to send their children to this school. At the same time, Lopez has never openly declared that she belongs to the Church of Scientology and assures that she is a Catholic.

Juliette Lewis

The famous singer and actress was seriously addicted to drugs at the beginning of her career, but she pulled herself together and quit. And it was Scientology that helped her quit, or rather the rehabilitation program developed by adherents of the church. Juliette always speaks out in defense of the church, and also gives interviews where she talks about what Scientologists teach. So, for example, the actress gave a speech that religion teaches to comprehend simple truths, how to properly communicate with loved ones, how you can improve your life and learn to think correctly.

Jason Lee

The star of the Alvin and the Chipmunks movie franchise is an active follower of Hubbard’s teachings. He frequently donated money to open schools, attended meetings regularly, and even divorced his wife, actress Carmen Llywelyn, when she refused to join the Church of Scientology. One way or another, in 2016, information appeared that Jason had left the church. What prompted him to take such a step and whether this is true is not known for certain.

Viktor Slobodchikov – Psychology of human development. Development of subjective reality in ontogeny » Page 16 » Every day read books online for free without registration

There is a fundamental aspect of human nature that encourages a person to move towards greater congruence and more realistic functioning. K. Rogers believed that in every person there is a desire to become competent, holistic, complete – tendency towards self-actualization . The foundation of his psychological ideas is the assertion that development is possible and that the tendency to self-actualization is fundamental for a person.

Obstacles to development, according to K. Rogers, arise in childhood. What a child learns at one stage should be re-evaluated at the next. Motives that prevail in early childhood may later hinder development. As soon as the child becomes aware of himself, he develops a need for love and positive attention. Since children do not distinguish their actions from themselves as a whole, they perceive the approval of an act as an approval of themselves. In the same way, they perceive punishment for an act as disapproval in general.

Love is so important for a child that he is guided in his behavior by the desire to receive it from loved ones. The child begins to act in such a way as to receive love or approval, regardless of whether it is good for his own organic health. Children may act against their own interests, believing that their original purpose is to meet the assessments of others.

Development is retarded to the extent that a person denies impulses that destroy the artificially created idea of ​​himself. A vicious circle arises: in order to maintain a false image of oneself, a person continues to distort his own experience, and the greater the distortion, the more errors in behavior and additional problems. Each experience of incongruence between self and reality increases vulnerability, which forces one to strengthen internal defenses that block the experience and create new grounds for incongruence.

Client-centered therapy seeks to create an environment in which a person regains mental health by regaining repressed or denied parts of themselves. This therapy includes three basic humanistic principles: 1) people are by nature free and good; 2) patients, students, professionals, etc. are, first of all, people; 3) constructive, developing interaction with people is possible only if the psychotherapist or teacher manages to enter into transpersonal relations with them, i. e. relations that overcome the given boundaries of professional statuses and roles.

The most important scientific discovery of C. Rogers is that he established the necessary conditions for the humanization of any interpersonal relationship, providing constructive personal changes. This is non-judgmental positive acceptance of another person, his active empathic listening and congruent (adequate, genuine and sincere) self-expression in communication with him .[12]

their self-actualization. It is impossible to develop a person from the outside, it is impossible to form humanistic convictions in him; only from within can conditions be created in which a person himself will come to these convictions, freely choose them. The practice of education is built on the basis of creating conditions that stimulate the free development of people, that is, development that is carried out in accordance with their own goals and aspirations.

Methodological reflection

Questions for discussion and reflection

biology and logic (genetic psychology of J. Piaget). Why is psychology so resistant to borrowing the conceptual apparatus from other sciences? Should psychology develop its own conceptual apparatus of the ontogeny of human subjective reality? Can categories of other sciences be used in this conceptual apparatus?

2. Child psychologist L. F. Obukhova assesses the influence of convergence theory on modern psychology in the following way: “This is the most common concept in modern psychology, it corresponds to common sense: “the apple does not fall far from the tree” and that’s what you’ll get.” Until now, psychologists continue to weigh these two factors. All modern theories differ from each other only in how they interpret the interaction of heredity and environment, maturation and learning, biology and culture, innate and acquired abilities in the course of mental development.0508 .[13]

Why are two-factor theories of mental development so attractive in contemporary Western psychology? What is the methodological failure of these theories?

3. Psychologist A. B. Orlov writes: “More than a century-old history of the development of scientific naturalistic psychology focused on knowledge quite convincingly testifies to the futility of efforts aimed at developing universal categories, to the impossibility of going beyond the limits each time limited, private explanatory principles and, consequently, about the futility of building psychology on this path as a true science. At the same time, the relatively short history of the development of ideal-oriented scientific trends shows that even with the most extreme, literally opposite initial foundations, psychologists necessarily come to very similar (if not identical) ideas about the universal goal of personal development.0508 [14] . Which directions in psychology can be attributed to knowledge-oriented and which to the ideal?

4. Why are sociomorphist ideas about a person and his development attractive for a certain type of pedagogical practice?

5. What do you see as the merit of intercultural research in developmental psychology?

6. Highlight the applied pedagogical aspects of social learning theories. Are these theories adequate to the tasks of human education?

7. What is the fundamental difference between humanistic psychology and other areas and schools in developmental psychology and its significance for educational practice?
