1. EGYPT

2. DOS and DON’Ts project

3.  is a transcontinental country situated mainly within North Africa, with its Sinai Peninsula forming a land bridge in Southwest Asia. Covering an area of about 1,010,000 square kilometers (390,000 sq mi), Egypt is bordered by the Mediterranean Sea to the north, the Red Sea to the east, Sudan to the south and Libya to the west.

4. EEgypt is one of the most populous countries in Africa and the Middle East, and the 15th most populated in the world. The great majority of its over 82 million people live near the banks of the Nile River, an area of about 40,000 square kilometers (15,000 sq MI), where the only arable land is found.

5. No,Not an issue of authority, but of respect for the position and for one’s elder. The children of my friends do not call me by my first name, as this would be considered rude– just as my addressing any of my elders (Those old enough to be my parent) by first name would also be considered disrespectfu l.

6. SStudents are not the teacher ’ s equals. They should address the teacher with respect. The teacher, however, should not be bound to follow all the same rules as children. TThe school age is 6 th and we have three grades 6 years primary and three preparatory the three secondary.

7.  On the other hand, students politely asking another teacher on the school hallway if they have seen “teacher Maria from Mathematics” is commonplace here [Serbia]. Elementary students here answer the question “and who is your teacher?” with “teacher Helen” (you are supposed to know teachers’ names if you are going to ask their students such questions, or you are a stranger.

8. Depends on local culture Of course, but in most cultures adults are considered to be far on the [formal] gradient so no first names. It also depends on context. “Hey, Maria, I don’t get this math problem!” is very inappropriat e.

9.  They Call Me MR. Tibbs! Depends entirely on the culture of the school. I student-taught at a school where first names were the norm,though a few teachers required the traditional Mr./Ms. Surname. I would have preferred the Mr., and in each of my schools since student teaching, the Mr./Ms. has been the norm. Were I to find myself in a school where first names are the norm … I don ’ t think I ’ d return to such a school, actually.

10. The uprising in Egypt, the Arab World's most populous nation, is one of the most important developments in the post-Cold War period. The repercussions for the U.S. National Security can be greatly devastating or stabilizing; however, this is not just about policy but about a people's noble struggle for freedom and democracy.

11. For the first time in the Middle East, the U.S. is finally being confronted with its rhetoric of promoting democracy and inalienable human rights. Thus far, we still have a choice to either affirm ourselves as a nation that truly seeks democracy or one that blindly cares about its short term interests and thus perpetually damned to be perceived as being on the wrong side of history.

12. Growing up in Egypt I only knew one president: Hosni Mubarak. Though I went to a private Coptic school his portrait was in every classroom and every public square. He has been ruling Egypt since 1981 and his reign is older than that of many Egyptians.

13.  In 1979, Egypt signed the first peace treaty by an Arab nation with Israel. Egypt thusly had the blessing of the U.S., which invested heavily in assuring the suppression of any possibility of war between Egypt and Israel. The price for this peace was the adamant and preposterous support of Mubarak's regime.

14. Abandoned by the world and their government, the Egyptian people, once proud and dignified, were again subdued and abused like the days of French and British colonial rule. Regular Egyptians still struggle to survive and provide for their families. A conservative figure puts 40 percent of the population in Egypt living on less than $2 a day. Even educated Egyptians with high degrees struggle to find employment.

15.  It's impossible to touch on all the nuances and possible outcomes of the current revolution. We are faced with one solution though, and that is for our government to support the wishes of the Egyptian people to have basic freedoms that they have been denied for centuries.

16.  If there is still any faith in American exceptionalism by our people we must show our support for the Egyptian people in their revolution and let our government know that we must once again be on the right side of history. A democratic and free Egypt can have a chain reaction in the Middle East, and we would see democracy prevail and elevate the intrinsic wishes for peace and justice in the hearts of every Middle Eastern man and woman.
