Theater Club story


September 13, 2018

Another interesting booth I visited at RVCC on September 13, 2018, was the Professional Theater Club booth, run by Cara Morris. Cara is a very enthusiastic student who clearly loves the theater. She was happy to tell me that “students pay half price for world class events” at RVCC.  Since the quality of the shows and entertainment are at such a high standard, people from all of New Jersey and the tri-state area come to see the shows at RVCC. Shows appear throughout the year and seasonally, such as the Nutcracker in the winter. Cara said that “people around the world perform”, which is why RVCC has become so popular.  Example areas of entertainment include dance, comedy, puppetry, youth and family events and sensory friendly shows for children and adults with special needs. With a two-level theater that seats 984 people, Cara claims there will be a fun time for all who attend.

Video Games Cause Violence

Not Child’s Play Teen and young adult video gaming is becoming more popular as high-tech has streamlined so that interactive games can appear on all screen devices. Since gaming is available 24 hours a day, high exposure can lead to obsessive playing and engagement. The growing controversial claim that violence is learned leaves us needing to know where this brutality is being taught or observed so that we can re-teach gaming enthusiasts, to reduce their escalated thoughts, which can lead to barbaric actions. Teens and young adults are more likely to act out in violence when obsessively playing video games that are violent in nature. One reason for the obsessive behaviors in gaming is that the player is in search of shock value; once the initial shock of violence is accepted, the gamer generally looks for games that out-do the previous violence they have become desensitized to by compulsively playing. The term “violence” has become muted and no longer carries much weight. Teens n...

Montessori Blog

The Whole Child The working relationship between Anita Albers and Nina Marvi of the Albrook Montessori School in Bernards Township, New Jersey, can easily be compared to the strong working history that developed between Maria Montessori and Lakshmi Kripalani in 1946. Maria Montessori founded her style of teaching out of necessity. She supported a new approach to teaching that would keep children in an educational environment that was clean and organized and would encourage the children to learn independently. Montessori traveled to India where she taught her techniques to Kripalani, who opened her own Montessori learning center in India in 1947. She soon moved to the United States and began a Montessori movement in New Jersey.

Albers has since trained talented directors and staff, including Nina Marvi, who is the current direct...
