write a 6 word summary of the corrupt bargain

The presidential election of 1824, which involved three major figures in American history, was decided in the House of Representatives. One man won, one helped him win, and one stormed out of Washington, D.C., denouncing the affair as “the corrupt bargain.” Until the disputed election of 2000, this was the most controversial election in American history.

In the 1820s, the United States was in a relatively settled period. The War of 1812 was fading into memory and the Missouri Compromise in 1821 had put aside the contentious issue of the enslavement of Black people, where it would essentially remain until the 1850s.

A pattern of two-term presidents had developed in the early 1800s:

  • Thomas Jefferson : elected in 1800 and 1804
  • James Madison : elected in 1808 and 1812
  • James Monroe : elected in 1816 and 1820

As Monroe’s second term reached its final year, several major candidates were intent on running in 1824.

John Quincy Adams : The son of the second president had served as secretary of state in the James Monroe administration since 1817. Being secretary of state was considered one obvious path to the presidency, as Jefferson, Madison, and Monroe had all previously held the position.

Adams, by his own admission, was considered to have an unexciting personality, but his long career of public service made him well qualified to be chief executive.

Andrew Jackson : Following his victory over the British at the Battle of New Orleans in 1815, Gen. Jackson became a larger-than-life American hero. He was elected as a senator from Tennessee in 1823 and immediately began positioning himself to run for president.

The main concerns people had about Jackson were that he was self-educated and possessed a fiery temperament. He had killed men in duels and had been wounded by gunfire in various confrontations.

Henry Clay : As speaker of the House, Clay was a dominating political figure. He had pushed the Missouri Compromise through Congress, and that landmark legislation had, at least for a time, settled the issue of slavery.

Clay had an advantage: If several candidates ran and none of them received a majority of votes from the electoral college. That would put the decision in the House of Representatives, where Clay wielded great power.

An election decided in the House would be unlikely in the modern era. But Americans in the 1820s didn't consider it outlandish, as it had happened recently: The election of 1800 , which was won by Jefferson, had been decided in the House of Representatives.

William H. Crawford:  Though mostly forgotten today, Georgia's Crawford was a powerful political figure, having served as a senator and secretary of the treasury under Madison. He was considered a strong candidate for president but had suffered a stroke in 1823 that rendered him partially paralyzed and unable to speak. Despite that, some politicians still supported his candidacy.

In that era, candidates didn't campaign for themselves. Campaigning was left to managers and surrogates, and throughout the year various partisans spoke and wrote in favor of the candidates.

When the votes were tallied from across the nation, Jackson had won a plurality of the popular as well as the electoral vote . In the electoral college tabulations, Adams came in second, Crawford was third, and Clay was fourth.

While Jackson won the popular vote that was counted, some states at that time picked electors in the state legislature and didn't tally a popular vote for president.

The U.S. Constitution dictates that a candidate needs to win a majority in the Electoral College, and no one met that standard. The election, therefore, had to be decided by the House of Representatives.

The man who had a huge advantage in that venue, House speaker Clay, was automatically eliminated. The Constitution said only the top three candidates could be considered.

In early January 1824, Adams had invited Clay to visit him at his residence, and the two men spoke for several hours. It is unknown whether they reached some sort of deal, but suspicions were widespread.

On Feb. 9, 1825, the House held its election, in which each state delegation got one vote. Clay had made it known that he supported Adams and thanks to his influence, Adams won the vote and was elected president.

'The Corrupt Bargain'

Jackson, already famous for his temper, was furious. When Adams named Clay as his secretary of state, Jackson denounced the election as "the corrupt bargain." Many assumed Clay had sold his influence to Adams so he could be secretary of state and increase his chance of being president someday.

Jackson was so angry about what he considered Washington manipulations that he resigned his Senate seat, returned to Tennessee, and began planning the campaign that would make him president four years later. The 1828 campaign between Jackson and Adams was perhaps the dirtiest campaign ever, with wild accusations thrown about by each side.

Jackson was elected. He would serve two terms as president and begin the era of strong political parties in America. As for Adams, after losing to Jackson in 1828, he retired briefly to Massachusetts before running successfully for the House of Representatives in 1830. He served 17 years in Congress, becoming a strong advocate against the enslavement of African Americans .

Adams always said being a congressman was more gratifying than being president. He died in the U.S. Capitol, having suffered a stroke in the building in February 1848.

Clay ran for president again, losing to Jackson in 1832 and to James Knox Polk in 1844. While he never gained the nation's highest office, he remained a major figure in national politics until his death in 1852.

‘Corrupt bargain’

Andrew Jackson received the most popular votes and the most electoral votes in the election of 1824. He did not become president.

This essay is adapted from John Quincy Adams: Campaigns and elections .

The year 1824 was a political turning point in which none of the old rules applied. For the first time, the popular vote mattered—eighteen states were to choose their presidential electors by popular vote while only six states still left the choice up to their state legislatures. The electorate also featured a new swath of regionally focused voters only recently enfranchised thanks to the removal of property ownership as a criterion for white male suffrage. In this new climate regional endorsements of candidates by state conventions or state assemblies—popularity—rather than congressional intrigue, would drive the nomination process. 

For the first time, the popular vote mattered.

Although John Quincy Adams should have been the heir apparent to the presidency as James Monroe's secretary of state, four other men also wanted to be President, each with substantial regional backing.

John C. Calhoun of South Carolina had served as secretary of war in the Monroe administration and had support from slave owners in the South.

The politically ambitious and able William H. Crawford of Georgia enjoyed the support of party regulars in Congress—especially Senator Martin Van Buren of New York—as well as substantial footing in Georgia. Crawford had served as secretary of war and of the treasury in the two previous administrations.

The most visible candidate was House Speaker Henry Clay. A leading War Hawk during the War of 1812, Clay had a power base in Kentucky, was a gifted public speaker, and had support for his so-called American System of protective tariffs and federally sponsored internal improvements.

[Jackson's] supporters talked about him as another George Washington.

Then there was General Andrew Jackson from Tennessee, the hero of the Battle of New Orleans. Jackson's reputation as an Indian fighter and western expansionist, owing to his military escapades in Spanish Florida, gave him national standing above all other candidates. It also helped that Jackson could enter the race as an outsider, a defender of the Republic who had risked his life in service of his nation. In fact, his supporters talked about him as another George Washington. 

Although Adams was a centrist politician of sorts—a Jeffersonian-Federalist, to coin a new term—many Americans still identified him as a New Englander and as the son of the old Federalist leader John Adams. Additionally, many staunch Democratic-Republicans blamed Adams and his supporters for having transformed the party of Jefferson into a disguised form of Federalism under the rubric of "National Republicans." Southerners, moreover, objected to Adams because of his moral opposition to slavery. 

Building a coalition in such circumstances would be no easy task. 

Four Democratic-Republican candidates

painting of John C. Calhoun

In the summer of 1824, an unofficial caucus of less than a third of the congressmen eligible to attend nominated Crawford for president. Supporters of Adams denounced the caucus bid, and the Massachusetts legislature nominated Adams as their favorite-son candidate. The Kentucky legislature did the same for Clay. Both nominations followed the pattern set by the Tennessee legislature, which had nominated Andrew Jackson back in 1822 and sent him to the Senate to burnish his credentials. John C. Calhoun of South Carolina dropped out of the presidential race by announcing his bid for the vice presidency. 

Painting of William H. Crawford

All four remaining candidates were nominal Democratic-Republicans—the Federalist Party had disintegrated by this point—and the election proceeded without reference to party affiliation. Jackson, whose credentials were based largely on his personality and heroic exploits, emerged as the man to beat. The size of his rallies in key swing states—Pennsylvania, Illinois, Indiana, New York, and New Jersey—far surpassed or rivaled those for Clay and Adams. 

Jackson was the only candidate to attract significant support beyond his regional base, and his Jackson's popularity foretold a new era in the making. When the final votes were tallied in the eighteen states requiring a popular vote, Jackson polled 152,901 votes to Adams's 114,023; Clay won 47,217, and Crawford 46,979. The electoral college gave Jackson the highest total as well, but his 99 electoral votes electoral were 32 fewer than he needed for a majority and thus the presidency. Adams won 84 electoral votes followed by 41 for Crawford and 37 for Clay.

Acting under the Twelfth Amendment of the Constitution, the House of Representatives met to select the president from among the top three candidates. Henry Clay, as the candidate with the fewest electoral votes, was eliminated from the deliberation. As Speaker of the House, however, he became the most important player in determining the outcome of the election in the House, which took place in February 1825. With each state having one vote, as determined by the wishes of the majority of each state's congressional representatives, Adams emerged as the winner with a one-vote margin of victory. Most of Clay'

s supporters, joined by several old Federalists, switched their votes to Adams in enough states to give him the election. Soon after his inauguration, Adams appointed Clay as his secretary of state.

A "corrupt bargain"

Jackson could barely contain his fury at having lost the election in what he claimed was a "corrupt bargain" between Adams and Clay to overturn the will of the people. To most Jackson supporters, it looked as if congressional leaders had conspired to revive the caucus system, whereby Congress greatly influenced—if not determined—the selection of the president. Jackson laid the blame on Clay, telling anyone who would listen that the Speaker had approached him with the offer of a deal: Clay would support Jackson in return for Jackson's appointment of Clay as secretary of state. When Jackson refused, Clay purportedly made the deal with Adams instead. In Jackson's words, Clay had sold his influence in a "corrupt bargain."

Clay denied the charges, and while there certainly had been some behind-the-scenes maneuvering by Clay to push the vote to Adams, it most likely reflected Clay's genuine doubts about Jackson's qualifications for the office. In assessing the odds of successfully forwarding his own political agenda, Clay questioned Jackson's commitment to the "American System" of internal improvements. On the other hand, Clay knew that Adams had supported it consistently over the years. Also, the loss of three states that Jackson had won in the popular vote—Illinois, Maryland, and Louisiana—due to the defection of congressmen who supported Adams suggests that more was involved in the outcome than the political maneuvering of one man. Enraged, Jackson resigned his seat in the Senate and vowed to win the presidency in 1828 as an outsider to Washington politics.

Within months of Adams's inauguration, the Tennessee legislature nominated Jackson for president in 1828. Over the next three years, Jackson put together a highly disciplined grassroots campaign with one goal: to defeat John Quincy Adams in a rematch that would pit "the people" against Adams. 

painting of Rachel Jackson

To countless Americans, Jackson's duels, brawls, executions, and unauthorized ventures represented the victory of what was right and good over the application of stiff-minded and narrowly construed principles. Attacks on Jackson’s wife, Rachel, as an "American Jezebel" because she had married Jackson before her divorce from an earlier marriage had been finalized simply enhanced Jackson's image as an authentic American, a hero who had drawn upon his natural nobility and powerful will to prevail against unscrupulous political foes, educated elitists, the pride of the British army, and "heathen savages"—often at the same time.

The 1828 campaign turned out more than twice the number of voters who had cast ballots in 1824—approximately 57 percent of the electorate. Jackson won the election in a landslide, and by a wide margin of 95 electoral votes. Adams carried New England, Delaware, part of Maryland, New Jersey, and sixteen of New York's electoral votes—nine states in all. Jackson carried the remaining fifteen states of the South, Northwest, mid-Atlantic, and West. Incumbent Vice President John C. Calhoun won 171 electoral votes to 83 for Richard Rush of Pennsylvania, Adams's running mate.

In four years, the “corrupt bargain” had yielded to “Jacksonian democracy.”

Suggested Sequencing

This Narrative can be assigned to students with the Cartoon Analysis: The Presidential Election of 1824 Primary Source.

After the demise of the First Party System , the United States seemed to enter what is called the Era of Good Feelings , a period of unity and patriotism following the War of 1812. In 1820, President James Monroe of Virginia ran for reelection virtually unopposed, winning nearly all the votes in the Electoral College. But this apparent political unity did not last. Four years later, in 1824, the nation experienced one of the most contentious and controversial elections in its history. Four candidates vied for the presidency; all were Jeffersonian Republicans representing different regional interests. Secretary of the Treasury William H. Crawford of Georgia was the favorite of the southern planter class; Speaker of the House of Representatives Henry Clay of Kentucky and U.S. senator and former U.S. Army general Andrew Jackson of Tennessee represented western interests; and Secretary of State John Quincy Adams of Massachusetts was the son of a former president.

This political cartoon, published a few weeks before the general election in 1824, depicts the four-way race for the “presidential chair” and its $25,000 annual salary. The candidates and their supporters each make remarks about their chances and their sectional interests.

On Election Day in November, Jackson carried more than 40 percent of the popular vote, garnering ninety-nine votes in the Electoral College. Adams came in second, with roughly 31 percent of the popular vote and eighty-four electoral votes. Bringing up the rear were Crawford with 11 percent of the popular vote and forty-one electoral votes, and Clay with 13 percent and thirty-seven electoral votes. (State legislatures chose the electors in six of the twenty-four states at this time.)

No candidate garnered the 131 electoral votes needed to secure a majority in the Electoral College and thus win the election. As a consequence, in accordance with the Twelfth Amendment, the election was constitutionally thrown to the House of Representatives, where each state delegation would cast one vote. If all four candidates had remained on the ballot, Clay would have had a tremendous advantage because he exercised a great deal of influence and authority in the House. But the Twelfth Amendment stipulated that only the top three vote-getters in the Electoral College were placed before the House. With the fewest Electoral votes but tremendous influence, Clay thus found himself in an unusual position – one that could make him a “kingmaker.”

In the weeks after the general election, Clay carefully weighed whom to support in the upcoming House election. On a personal level, he disliked Adams, but the New Englander supported Clay’s “American System” of federally funded internal improvements. On Sunday night, January 9, 1825, Clay and Adams had a meeting. Jacksonians soon accused them of making a bargain in which Clay would support Adams in exchange for his choice of a position in the cabinet. The accusation was based on the assumption that Clay would want to be secretary of state, because that office was the primary stepping-stone to the presidency in the early nineteenth century. There was no evidence for the charge and Adams and Clay vehemently denied it, but the Jacksonians suspected a conspiracy against them.

To win, a candidate needed the votes of thirteen of the twenty-four state delegations in the House. Clay went to work, lobbying members of Congress to support Adams. As the day of the election approached, Adams had the support of twelve state delegations, Jackson seven, and Crawford four. Only one state, New York, was unpledged. Its delegation, which consisted of thirty-four men, was evenly divided between Adams and Crawford. Crawford’s main supporter in Congress, Senator Martin Van Buren of New York, hoped that a deadlock in the House might swing enough states over to Crawford. Clay, however, knew that if he could persuade just one Crawford man from New York to switch to Adams, the New Englander would carry the day. Indeed, when the balloting was complete, Adams had won the New York delegation and the election.

Portrait of Martin Van Buren.

After his career as a New York senator, Martin Van Buren served as vice president under Andrew Jackson before being elected president. This portrait is from about 1830.

That night, President Monroe held a reception at the White House. Jackson politely approached Adams and reached out his hand. “How do you do, Mr. Adams?” he said. “I hope you are well, sir.” Adams replied, “Very well, sir. I hope General Jackson is well.” But this cordiality was short-lived. Shortly thereafter, Adams asked Clay to serve as his secretary of state, and Clay accepted.

Clay was a leading statesman who had been speaker of the house, served on the delegation that negotiated the Treaty of Ghent, and had broad experience on domestic and foreign policy issues. In short, he was one of the best men for the job. Still, upon hearing this news, a suspicious Jackson erupted. “So you see,” he wrote to a private correspondent, “the Judas of the West has closed the contract and will receive the thirty pieces of silver.” Jackson did not challenge the validity of the election, because it had taken place in accordance with the rules prescribed in the Constitution, but he suspected a corrupt bargain to keep him out of office and vowed to win the next time. Privately, he predicted that Clay’s “end will be the same” as that of Judas, who hanged himself after betraying Jesus.

Caricature of Henry Clay sewing Andrew Jackson's mouth shut.

In this caricature from 1828, Henry Clay sews Andrew Jackson’s mouth shut. The print is titled, “Symptoms of a locked jaw. Plain sewing done here.” What was the political message in the cartoon?

Jackson had correctly predicted Clay’s political future. Political observers almost immediately began castigating Adams and Clay for their apparent duplicity. “Expired at Washington, on the ninth of February,” crowed one newspaper editor, “of poison administered by the assassin hands of John Quincy Adams, the usurper, and Henry Clay, the virtue, liberty and independence of the United States.” Indeed, suspicion of having participated in this “corrupt bargain” became a significant stain on Clay’s political reputation.

Jackson soon began organizing his forces for the next presidential election, forming an opposition party to Adams and Clay (later the Democratic Party). In 1828, Jackson won the presidency with the help of a strong national party machinery that held rallies, barbecues, and parades, and published anti-administration newspapers. His victory ushered in a new era for the presidency. Most of his predecessors (with the exception of the two Adamses) had been part of the Virginia gentry. Jackson, by contrast, was a self-made frontier man who had been born into poverty in the Carolina backcountry but had risen through the ranks of society to become a lawyer, judge, senator, army general, and, eventually, president. His successors would be of similarly humble beginnings, thus giving the nineteenth-century United States a more democratic feeling.

(a) This engraving, which was published during the election of 1828, alludes to Andrew Jackson’s stunning victory at the Battle of New Orleans at the end of the War of 1812. (b) The print depicts the crowd of visitors to the White House to celebrate Andrew Jackson’s first inauguration in 1829. The large number of ordinary citizens who attended – and who became quite raucous – was a new development in U.S. politics.

In 1832, Jackson won reelection over a sharply divided opposition. In 1834, however, the Whig Party arose in opposition to “King Andrew.” The early Whigs struggled to define a positive party platform (in 1836, they even ran four regional candidates for president), but after the Panic of 1837, they articulated a program for economic recovery through a tariff, a national bank, and federally funded internal improvements. In many ways, the Second Party System arose more in response to particular presidential contests and personalities than to tangible political issues. Jackson’s coalition formed around Old Hickory, as he was known, with the express purpose of removing the Adams administration from power, and the aptly named Whigs came together against what they perceived as a monarchical Jackson (their name harkened back to the seventeenth-century English Whig Party, which opposed the Stuart monarchy).

The Jacksonian Era was a period of intense democratization. Many states adopted new state constitutions that eliminated property qualifications to vote and thereby expanded suffrage to nearly all white men. At the same time, many of these constitutions disenfranchised free African American men, and none gave women the vote. Offices that had previously been appointed, like state judgeships, became elective. The Electoral College was also democratized. By 1832, every state but South Carolina was choosing its presidential electors by popular vote, and most states also adopted the unit rule, which gave the winning candidate in each state that state’s entire electoral vote. These electoral reforms brought vast numbers of new voters into the political process while also reducing the possibility of a backroom deal to win the presidency. The Jacksonians helped usher in a new era of mass political participation.

The 1824 Presidential Election and the “Corrupt Bargain”

As we get ready to go to the polls on November 3, we’re looking back one of the more controversial elections—the 1824 Presidential election. Today’s post comes from Michael J. Hancock, an archives technician at the National Archives at College Park, MD. 

John Quincy Adams was elected President on February 9, 1825, when the House of Representatives decided the Presidential election of 1824.

write a 6 word summary of the corrupt bargain

The Presidential election of 1824 is significant for being the only election since the passage of the 12th Amendment to have been decided by the House of Representatives. The 12th Amendment, passed in 1804, addressed concerns that had emerged in the election of 1796 and election of 1800 . The election of 1824 is often claimed to be the first in which the successful Presidential candidate did not win the popular vote, even though the popular vote was not measured nationwide at the time, further clouding the issue.  

The election featured five candidates, all of whom ran as Democratic-Republicans (the Federalists having ceased to have a national political presence). The crowded field included John Quincy Adams, the son of the second President, John Adams. Quincy Adams, representing New England, had separated with the Federalists in the early 1800s and served on various diplomatic missions, including the assignment to secure peace with Great Britain in 1814. 

A second candidate, John C. Calhoun from South Carolina, had served as Secretary of War and represented the slave-holding South. Eventually, he dropped out of the Presidential race to run for Vice President. 

A third candidate, Henry Clay of Kentucky, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, represented the western states. He favored an active federal government committed to internal improvements and infrastructure in order to strengthen national economic development and settlement of the West.

William H. Crawford, a slaveholder from Georgia, suffered a stroke in 1823 that left him more or less incapacitated, but he continued his campaign with the support of the New York machine led by Martin Van Buren.

Andrew Jackson, the celebrated “hero of New Orleans,” rounded out the field. Jackson was popular for his military victories in the War of 1812 and in wars against the Creek in 1814 and the campaigns against Choctaws, Cherokees, and Chickasaws and his conduct of the First Seminole war in Florida. He had been elected to the Senate in 1823, and his popularity soared as pro-Jackson newspapers promoted the narrative of his courageous exploits.

The election was as much a match of favorite sons as it was a struggle over policy. In general, the candidates were favored by different sections of the country, with Adams strong in the Northeast; Jackson in the South, West, and mid-Atlantic; Clay in parts of the West; and Crawford in parts of the East.

With tens of thousands of new voters in the United States, the older system of having members of Congress assemble congressional caucuses to determine who would run was no longer tenable. It became clear that voters had regional interests and for the first time, the popular vote had significant implications in a Presidential election. Electors were chosen by popular vote in 18 states, while the 6 remaining states employed the older system in which state legislatures selected electors.

Results from the 18 states where the popular vote determined the electoral vote gave Jackson the election, with 152,901 votes to Adams’s 114,023, Clay’s 47,217, and Crawford’s 46,979. 

The Electoral College, however, was another matter. Of the 261 electoral votes, Jackson needed 131 or more to win but secured only 99. Adams won 84, Crawford 41, and Clay 37. Meanwhile, John C. Calhoun secured a total of 182 electoral votes and won the Vice Presidency in what was generally an uncompetitive race.

Because Jackson did not receive a majority vote from the Electoral College, the election was decided following the terms of the 12th Amendment, which stipulated that when a candidate did not receive a majority of electoral votes, the election went to the House of Representatives, where each state would provide one vote. Following the provisions of the 12th Amendment, only the top three candidates in the electoral vote were admitted as candidates in the House: John Quincy Adams, Andrew Jackson, and William Harris Crawford.

House Speaker Clay did not want to see his rival, Jackson, become President and set about his efforts within the House to secure the Presidency for Adams, lobbying members to cast their vote for the candidate from New England. Ultimately, Clay’s efforts paid off and despite failing to win the popular vote, John Quincy Adams was certified by the House as the next President on February 9, 1825, on the first ballot with 13 states. Jackson followed with 7 and Crawford with 4. Once in office, Adams installed Henry Clay to the post of Secretary of State.

Adams’s victory was a gut punch for Jackson, who expected to be elected President having more popular and electoral votes. Following this logic, Jackson and his followers accused Clay and Adams of striking a corrupt bargain. The Jacksonians campaigned on this narrative over the next four years, ultimately propelling Jackson to victory in the Adams-Jackson election rematch of 1828.

Corrupt Bargain

The term Corrupt Bargain refers to three historic incidents in American history in which political agreement was determined by congressional or presidential actions that many viewed to be corrupt from different standpoints. Two of these involved resolution of indeterminate or disputed electoral votes from the United States presidential election process, and the third involved the disputed use of a presidential pardon. In all three cases, the president so elevated served a single term, or singular vacancy, and either did not run again, or was not reelected when he ran.

In the 1824 election , no outright majority was attained and the process required resolution in the House of Representatives , whose Speaker and candidate in his own right, Henry Clay , gave his support to John Quincy Adams , and was then selected to be his Secretary of State . In the 1876 election , accusations of corruption stemmed from officials involved in counting the necessary and hotly contested electoral votes of both sides, in which Rutherford B. Hayes was elected by a congressional commission. The most recent incident widely described as a "corrupt bargain" was Gerald Ford 's 1974 pardon of Richard Nixon , following the resignation of the disgraced former president. The critics claim that Ford's pardon was a quid pro quo for Nixon's resignation, which elevated Ford to the presidency.

Lesson 3: The Election Is in the House: Was There a Corrupt Bargain?

Henry Clay did not win the 1824 presidential election, but proved an influential dealmaker in the final outcome.

The presidential election of 1824 represents a watershed in American politics. The collapse of the Federalist Party and the illness of the "official candidate" of the Democratic-Republicans led to a slate of candidates who were all Democratic-Republicans. This led to the end of the Congressional Caucus system for nominating candidates, and eventually, the development of a new two-party system in the United States. In the election, Andrew Jackson won a plurality of both the popular and electoral vote. But John Quincy Adams became president. Four crucial elements of our election system were highlighted in the election of 1824: the nomination of candidates, the popular election of electors, the Electoral College, and the election of the president in the House when no candidate receives a majority in the Electoral College.

Guiding Questions

How did John Quincy Adams win election in 1824?

Learning Objectives

Take a stand, supported by evidence, on whether there was a "corrupt bargain" between Henry Clay and John Quincy Adams.

Lesson Plan Details

The election in the House of Representatives took place on February 9, 1825. Shortly thereafter, Adams announced that Henry Clay would be his nominee for Secretary of State. John Quincy Adams became president on March 3, 1825. There was an immediate accusation that some kind of deal had been struck, a so-called "corrupt bargain." On March 5, 1825, President Adams Nominated Henry Clay for Secretary of State (account available on the EDSITEment resource American Memory ). Had Adams specifically promised Clay appointment as Secretary of State in exchange for his support? (NOTE: At that time, the position of Secretary of State was considered the best stepping-stone to the presidency.)

No "smoking gun" to prove or disprove the accusations of a "corrupt bargain" has ever been found. Well-respected modern historians disagree on the matter.

  • Review the lesson plan. Locate and bookmark suggested materials and other useful websites. Download and print out documents you will use and duplicate copies as necessary for student viewing.
  • Download the Master PDF . Print out and make an appropriate number of copies of any handouts you plan to use in class.
  • In this lesson, students will look at a variety of evidence to see if it indicates whether there was a "corrupt bargain" in John Quincy Adams's victory in the presidential election. Considering that there is no agreement among historians about the "corrupt bargain," all student conclusions should be accepted as long as reasonable evidence is offered to support ideas.

Activity 1. Was There a Corrupt Bargain?

Begin by sharing these very brief accounts: In John Quincy Adams: A Public Life, A Private Life (New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1997), Paul C. Nagel writes:

"It was, however, in selecting his own successor at the State department that Adams undid his strategy for nonpartisanship and national unity. He asked Henry Clay, to whom he owed his election, to serve as secretary of state. The offer was extended after the House had elected Adams-not before as is often alleged."

In The Life of Andrew Jackson (New York: Harper and Row, 1988), Robert Remini writes that:

"The fateful decision came on January 9, 1825. A meeting was arranged between Adams and Clay for an evening's conversation. 'Mr. Clay came at six,' Adams confided to his journal, 'and spent the evening with me in a long conversation.' In the course of the conversation Clay asked the New Englander 'to satisfy him with regard to some principles of great public importance, but without any personal considerations for himself.' Nothing crude or vulgar, like declaring the terms of a political deal, passed their lips. No need. Both men understood one another's purposes. Surely they both realized that in exchange for House support Adams would designate Clay as his secretary of state."

The Campaign and Election of 1824 , on the EDSITEment-reviewed website The American President , describes events this way:

"Jackson could barely contain his fury at having lost the election in what he claimed was a 'corrupt bargain' between Adams and Clay to overturn the will of the people. To most Jacksonian supporters it looked as if congressional leaders had conspired to revive the caucus system, whereby Congress greatly influenced—if not determined—the selection of the president. Jackson laid the blame on Clay, telling anyone who would listen that the Speaker had approached him with the offer of a deal: Clay would support Jackson in return for Jackson's appointment of Clay as secretary of state. When Jackson refused, Clay made the deal with Adams instead. In Jackson's words, Clay had sold his influence in a 'corrupt bargain.' "Clay denied the charges, and while there certainly had been some behind-the-scene maneuvering by Clay to push the vote to Adams, it most likely reflected Clay's genuine doubts about Jackson's qualifications as a president. In assessing the odds of successfully forwarding his own political agenda, Clay questioned Jackson's commitment to the American System of internal improvements. On the other hand, Clay knew that Adams had supported it consistently over the years … Enraged, Jackson resigned his seat in the U.S. Senate and vowed to win the presidency in 1828 as an outsider to Washington politics."

What evidence do historians use to determine what actually happened in events of the past? Share as many of the following documents as desired with the whole class or with students working in small groups and allow them to decide. Does the circumstantial evidence indicate there was or was not a "bargain"? Or is the data insufficient to enable a conclusion? If a bargain had been struck, what criteria should be used to determine whether that bargain was in fact "corrupt"?

  • Clay Confirmed as Secretary of State (From the Senate Executive Journal)
  • Henry Clay's appointment as secretary of state, March 7, 1825 (Document and brief commentary)
  • An Eyewitness Account of the Voting in the House of Representatives , starting with the words "But it was not very honourable to human nature to see Clay" (account available on the website of the White House Historical Association , a link from the EDSITEment resource Explore DC ). This account was written by Margaret Bayard Smith, who, it should be noted, was a supporter of William Crawford.
  • "The people [have] been cheated. Corruptions and intrigues at Washington ... defeated the will of the people." —Cited in the Society section of the essay Andrew Jackson: Champion of the Kingly Commons on the EDSITEment-reviewed website American Studies at the University of Virginia
  • "So you see, the Judas of the West [Clay] has closed the contract and will receive the thirty pieces of silver. His end will be the same. Was there ever witnessed such a bare faced corruption in any country before?" —Andrew Jackson to William B. Lewis, February 14, 1825
  • "This, to my mind, is the most open, daring corruption that has ever shown itself under our government, and if not checked by the people, will lead to open direct bribery… Mr. Clay is prostrate here in the minds of all honest and honorable men." —Andrew Jackson to George Wilson, February 20, 1825
  • Clay Defends Himself in Congress on the EDSITEment resource American Memory (starts with "The SPEAKER rose, and observed, that he requested the indulgence of the House for a few moments, while he asked its attention to a subject in which he felt himself deeply concerned").
  • John Calhoun, who became Vice President in 1825, wrote some letters relating to the election of 1824. Here is the transcript of one such letter, entitled " Calhoun Letter ," (see Page 16 of the Master PDF ).
  • Search for the word "election" in the Register of Debates, 1824-1837: Index to 18th Congress, 2nd Session, Index to the Debates in the House of Representatives on the EDSITEment-reviewed website American Memory . Take note of the various discussions and the many pages taken up in deciding the procedure in the House. If desired, link to some of those pages and read the actual debates.
  • The Debates on the Issue of the Ballot Box , also available on American Memory , are particularly interesting in this regard. Read the first page or more. What various concerns were raised? Why were these issues raised by members of Congress?

Students should be able to respond effectively to the following:

  • What bias might be contained in any of the accounts above? Can you identify instances of bias?
  • If there were a "corrupt bargain," would it make sense that there is no "smoking gun"? If General Jackson and his handlers concocted the notion of a "corrupt bargain," would it make sense that there is no "smoking gun"?
  • Are there issue-based reasons why Henry Clay would be more likely to support Adams than Jackson?
  • On the basis of his qualifications alone, was Henry Clay a reasonable choice to be Secretary of State?

Ask students to take a stand in writing. Is there enough evidence to determine whether there was a "corrupt bargain"? If yes, then which evidence is most compelling?

Based on the documents students have examined in this lesson, ask them to compile a list of questions they should consider in the process of determining whether Adams and Clay made a "corrupt bargain." Use the list of questions provided in the assessment section to supplement the list created by the students. Once the students have explored the various angles that should be examined, assign them the job of judging the case. It might be helpful to prepare a list of the questions they decide are most critical and distribute this for them to use as they draft their opinions. In addition, remind students that they need to take a clear position and explain how the evidence supports their conclusion.

  • What can be learned about the election of 1824 from an analysis of the election and House data?
  • Was there a regional pattern in the election results?
  • Is there a pattern in the changes from the electoral votes to the votes in the House?
  • Are there any other interesting patterns uncovered by an analysis of the data? For example, in 1824 the electors were chosen by popular vote in every state except Delaware, Georgia, Louisiana, New York, South Carolina, and Vermont. Did Jackson tend to win the electoral votes more consistently in states where electors were chosen by popular election?
  • Did the Representatives of the states in which Jackson won the highest percentage of the popular vote tend to vote for Jackson in the House?
  • To what extent were regional differences a reflection of regional interests as shown by the popular vote? By the vote taken in the House of Representatives?
  • Do the data tend to prove or disprove the notion that there was a "corrupt bargain"?
  • Students interested in reading some scholarly analyses of the election of 1824 can consult the relevant essays in H-Pol's Online Seminar: The Presidential Nominating Process , a link from the EDSITEment-reviewed website American Studies at the University of Virginia .
  • Students interested in learning more about the issues in the debate over the Electoral College—a debate that was heatedly renewed during the controversy over the election of 2000—can begin their research by consulting Electoral College Debate , an exhibit of Famous Trials , a link from the EDSITEment resource Internet Public Library.

મોબાઇલ ફોન પર નિબંધ.2023 Essay on mobile phone

Essay on mobile phoneમોબાઈલ ફોન પર નિબંધ: મોબાઈલ ફોન પર નિબંધ મોબાઈલ ફોનને ઘણીવાર “સેલ્યુલર ફોન” પણ કહેવામાં આવે છે. તે એક ઉપકરણ છે જેનો ઉપયોગ મુખ્યત્વે વૉઇસ કૉલ માટે થાય છે. હાલમાં તકનીકી પ્રગતિએ આપણું જીવન સરળ બનાવ્યું છે. આજે, મોબાઈલ ફોનની મદદથી આપણે ફક્ત આંગળીઓને હલાવીને વિશ્વભરના કોઈપણ વ્યક્તિ સાથે સરળતાથી વાત કરી શકીએ છીએ અથવા વિડિયો ચેટ કરી શકીએ છીએ.

ફોન પર નિબંધ

આજે મોબાઇલ ફોન વિવિધ આકારો અને કદમાં ઉપલબ્ધ છે, જેમાં વિવિધ તકનીકી વિશિષ્ટતાઓ છે અને તેનો ઉપયોગ ઘણા હેતુઓ માટે થાય છે જેમ કે – વૉઇસ કૉલિંગ, વિડિયો ચેટિંગ, ટેક્સ્ટ મેસેજિંગ અથવા એસએમએસ, મલ્ટીમીડિયા મેસેજિંગ, ઇન્ટરનેટ બ્રાઉઝિંગ, ઇમેઇલ, વિડિયો ગેમ્સ અને ફોટોગ્રાફી. તેથી તેને ‘સ્માર્ટ ફોન’ કહેવામાં આવે છે. દરેક ઉપકરણની જેમ, મોબાઇલ ફોનમાં પણ તેના ફાયદા અને ગેરફાયદા છે જેની આપણે હવે ચર્ચા કરીશું.

મોબાઈલ ફોનના ફાયદા 1) આપણને જોડાયેલા રાખે છે

હવે આપણે ઘણી બધી એપ્સ દ્વારા ગમે ત્યારે આપણા મિત્રો, સંબંધીઓ સાથે કનેક્ટ થઈ શકીએ છીએ. હવે અમે ફક્ત તમારા મોબાઈલ ફોન અથવા સ્માર્ટફોનને ઓપરેટ કરીને જેની સાથે ઈચ્છીએ તેની સાથે વિડિયો ચેટ કરી શકીએ છીએ. આ ઉપરાંત મોબાઈલ પણ આપણને આખી દુનિયા વિશે અપડેટ રાખે છે.

2) રોજેરોજ વાતચીત

આજે મોબાઈલ ફોન એ આપણું જીવન રોજિંદા જીવનની પ્રવૃત્તિઓ માટે ખૂબ સરળ બનાવી દીધું છે. આજે, વ્યક્તિ મોબાઇલ ફોન પર લાઇવ ટ્રાફિક પરિસ્થિતિનું મૂલ્યાંકન કરી શકે છે અને સમયસર પહોંચવા માટે યોગ્ય નિર્ણય લઈ શકે છે. તેની સાથે હવામાન અપડેટ્સ, કેબ બુકિંગ અને ઘણું બધું.

3) બધા માટે મનોરંજન

મોબાઈલ ટેક્નોલોજીના સુધારા સાથે, સમગ્ર મનોરંજન જગત હવે એક છત નીચે છે. જ્યારે પણ આપણે રૂટિન વર્કથી કંટાળી જઈએ છીએ અથવા વિરામ દરમિયાન, અમે સંગીત સાંભળી શકીએ છીએ, મૂવી જોઈ શકીએ છીએ, અમારા મનપસંદ શો અથવા ફક્ત કોઈના મનપસંદ ગીતનો વિડિયો જોઈ શકીએ છીએ.

4) ઓફિસ વર્કનું સંચાલન

આજકાલ મોબાઈલનો ઉપયોગ ઘણા પ્રકારના ઓફિશિયલ કામો માટે થાય છે. મીટીંગના સમયપત્રક, દસ્તાવેજો મોકલવા અને મેળવવા, પ્રેઝન્ટેશન આપવા, એલાર્મ, જોબ એપ્લીકેશન વગેરે માટે મોબાઈલ ફોન દરેક કામ કરતા લોકો માટે આવશ્યક ઉપકરણ બની ગયું છે.

5) મોબાઇલ બેંકિંગ

આજકાલ મોબાઈલનો ઉપયોગ પેમેન્ટ કરવા માટે વોલેટ તરીકે પણ થાય છે. સ્માર્ટફોનમાં મોબાઈલ બેકિંગનો ઉપયોગ કરીને મિત્રો, સંબંધીઓ અથવા અન્ય લોકોને લગભગ તરત જ નાણાં ટ્રાન્સફર કરી શકાય છે. ઉપરાંત, વ્યક્તિ સરળતાથી તેના/તેણીના ખાતાની વિગતો મેળવી શકે છે અને ભૂતકાળના વ્યવહારો જાણી શકે છે. તેથી તે ઘણો સમય બચાવે છે અને મુશ્કેલી વિના પણ.

મોબાઇલ ફોનના ગેરફાયદા 1) સમયનો બગાડ

આજકાલ લોકો મોબાઈલના બંધાણી થઈ ગયા છે. જ્યારે આપણને મોબાઈલની જરૂર ન હોય ત્યારે પણ આપણે નેટ સર્ફ કરીએ છીએ, વાસ્તવિક વ્યસની બનાવીને ગેમ્સ રમીએ છીએ. જેમ જેમ મોબાઈલ ફોન સ્માર્ટ થતા ગયા તેમ તેમ લોકો બેફામ બન્યા.

2) અમને બિન-સંચારક્ષમ બનાવવું

મોબાઈલના વ્યાપક ઉપયોગથી મળવાનું ઓછું અને વાત વધુ થઈ છે. હવે લોકો શારીરિક રીતે મળતા નથી તેના બદલે સોશિયલ મીડિયા પર ચેટ અથવા ટિપ્પણી કરે છે.

3) ગોપનીયતાની ખોટ

મોબાઈલના વધુ ઉપયોગને કારણે વ્યક્તિની ગોપનીયતા ગુમાવવી એ હવે એક મોટી ચિંતા છે. આજે કોઈપણ વ્યક્તિ સરળતાથી માહિતી મેળવી શકે છે જેમ કે તમે ક્યાં રહો છો, તમારા મિત્રો અને કુટુંબીજનો, તમારો વ્યવસાય શું છે, તમારું ઘર ક્યાં છે વગેરે; ફક્ત તમારા સોશિયલ મીડિયા એકાઉન્ટ દ્વારા સરળતાથી બ્રાઉઝ કરીને.

4) પૈસાનો બગાડ

જેમ જેમ મોબાઈલની ઉપયોગિતા વધી છે તેમ તેમ તેની કિંમત પણ વધી છે. આજે લોકો સ્માર્ટફોન ખરીદવા પર ઘણા પૈસા ખર્ચી રહ્યા છે, જે શિક્ષણ અથવા આપણા જીવનમાં અન્ય ઉપયોગી વસ્તુઓ જેવી વધુ ઉપયોગી વસ્તુઓ પર ખર્ચી શકાય છે.

મોબાઇલ ફોન હકારાત્મક અને નકારાત્મક બંને હોઈ શકે છે; વપરાશકર્તા તેનો ઉપયોગ કેવી રીતે કરે છે તેના આધારે. મોબાઈલ એ આપણા જીવનનો એક ભાગ બની ગયો છે તેથી આપણે તેનો અયોગ્ય રીતે ઉપયોગ કરીને તેને જીવનમાં વાયરસ બનાવવાને બદલે આપણા સારા મુશ્કેલી મુક્ત જીવન માટે તેનો યોગ્ય રીતે ઉપયોગ કરવો જોઈએ. મોબાઈલ ફોન પર નિબંધ: મોબાઈલ ફોનને ઘણીવાર “સેલ્યુલર ફોન” પણ કહેવામાં આવે છે. તે એક ઉપકરણ છે જેનો ઉપયોગ મુખ્યત્વે વૉઇસ કૉલ માટે થાય છે. હાલમાં તકનીકી પ્રગતિએ આપણું જીવન સરળ બનાવ્યું છે.

આજે, મોબાઈલ ફોનની મદદથી આપણે ફક્ત આંગળીઓને હલાવીને વિશ્વભરના કોઈપણ વ્યક્તિ સાથે સરળતાથી વાત કરી શકીએ છીએ અથવા વિડિયો ચેટ કરી શકીએ છીએ. આજે મોબાઇલ ફોન વિવિધ આકારો અને કદમાં ઉપલબ્ધ છે,

જેમાં વિવિધ તકનીકી વિશિષ્ટતાઓ છે અને તેનો ઉપયોગ ઘણા હેતુઓ માટે થાય છે જેમ કે – વૉઇસ કૉલિંગ, વિડિયો ચેટિંગ, ટેક્સ્ટ મેસેજિંગ અથવા એસએમએસ, મલ્ટીમીડિયા મેસેજિંગ, ઇન્ટરનેટ બ્રાઉઝિંગ, ઇમેઇલ, વિડિયો ગેમ્સ અને ફોટોગ્રાફી. તેથી તેને ‘સ્માર્ટ ફોન’ કહેવામાં આવે છે. દરેક ઉપકરણની જેમ, મોબાઇલ ફોનમાં પણ તેના ફાયદા અને ગેરફાયદા છે જેની આપણે હવે ચર્ચા કરીશું.

આ બ્લોગ પર તમને નિબંધ, ભાષણ, સારા વિચાર, અને સ્ટોરીઓ વાંચવા મળશે. તમારે પણ કોઇ સ્ટોરી લખવી હોય તો અમારા બ્લોગમા લખી શકો છો.

મોબાઇલ ફોનના ગેરફાયદા

મોબાઈલ ફોન આજે દરેક વ્યક્તિના જીવનનો આવશ્યક ભાગ છે. બાકીના વિશ્વ, તમારા પ્રિયજનો, તમારી ઓફિસ અને તમારા સહકર્મીઓ સાથે જોડાયેલા રહેવા માટે તે શ્રેષ્ઠ તકનીક છે. પરંતુ, જેમ કે આપણે બધા જાણીએ છીએ, આ દુનિયામાં કોઈ પણ વસ્તુ સાથે માત્ર ફાયદાઓ જોડાયેલા નથી, મોબાઈલ ફોનનું પણ એવું જ છે. તેની સાથે કેટલાક ગેરફાયદા પણ જોડાયેલા છે. ચાલો નીચે થોડા જોઈએ.

  • દૃષ્ટિની સમસ્યાઓ: નિયમિતપણે ફોનનો ઉપયોગ કરવાની સૌથી મોટી સમસ્યાઓમાંની એક છે ઝાંખપ અથવા ખરાબ દૃષ્ટિ. આજે વયસ્કો અને બાળકો બંને તેમના મોબાઈલ ફોન વગર રહી શકતા નથી. જો તેઓ થોડા કલાકો સુધી તેમના ફોનનો ઉપયોગ કરતા નથી, તો તેમને લાગે છે કે કંઈક ખૂટે છે. હા, તે સાચું છે, મોબાઈલ ફોનનો નોંધપાત્ર ઉપયોગ તમારી દૃષ્ટિને બગાડે છે. આંખોમાં પાણી આવવું, આંખમાં દુખાવો, માથાનો દુખાવો, આંખમાં તાણ, લાલાશ આ બધાં કારણો મોબાઈલના ઉપયોગથી છે. મોબાઈલ ફોન વાદળી પ્રકાશ અને કિરણો મોકલે છે જે લાલાશ અને અસ્પષ્ટતાનું કારણ બને છે. અભ્યાસ દર્શાવે છે કે ફોનમાંથી નીકળતી વાદળી પ્રકાશ મેક્યુલર ડીજનરેશનનું કારણ બને છે.
  • અલગતા: તેમના મોબાઈલ ફોનનો ઉપયોગ કરવામાં વ્યસ્ત લોકો તેમના અંગત જીવનમાં બહુ સામાજિક નથી. તેઓ તેમની પોતાની કંપની પસંદ કરે છે અને એકલા રહેવાનું પણ પસંદ કરે છે. તેઓ પોતાને તેમના ફોનમાં વ્યસ્ત રાખે છે અને પરિવાર અને મિત્રો સાથે સમય વિતાવતા નથી. તેઓ એકલતામાં રહેવાનું પસંદ કરે છે.
  • મન સતત વિચલિત રહે છે: જ્યારે તમે કામ કરી રહ્યા હોવ અને તમારો ફોન એક કલાક સુધી વાગતો નથી, ત્યારે મન સતત વિચલિત થતું રહે છે. જ્યારે મોબાઈલ ફોન નજીક હોય અને જ્યારે ચાર્જ પર હોય અથવા બંધ હોય ત્યારે મન સ્થિર રહેતું નથી. જો જાહેર સભામાં તમારો ફોન ચાલુ હોય અને તમને સતત ફોન આવતા રહે તો મન પણ વિચલિત થઈ જાય છે. જ્યારે તમે મીટિંગમાં હોવ અને તમારો ફોન સાયલન્ટ અથવા વાઇબ્રેશન મોડમાં હોય, ત્યારે તમે પણ વિચલિત અનુભવો છો અને મીટિંગ પર ધ્યાન કેન્દ્રિત કરી શકતા નથી.
  • ઓછી બેટરી: તે મોબાઇલ ફોનના નોંધપાત્ર ગેરફાયદામાંનો એક છે. તમારે તમારા ફોનને ચાર્જ રાખવાની જરૂર છે જેથી કરીને તમે તમારી જરૂરિયાત મુજબ તેનો ઉપયોગ કરી શકો. તમારો ફોન ચાર્જ કરવા માટે તમારે તમારી પાસે ચાર્જર રાખવાની જરૂર છે. તમે ખરીદો છો તે દરેક નવું મોડલ, ચોક્કસ સમય પછી, બેટરી વધુ વખત ડિસ્ચાર્જ થતી રહે છે.
  • જો તમે રજા લીધી હોય તો પણ કામ ક્યારેય પૂરું થતું નથી: જ્યારે તમે રજા પર હોવ અને તમારો મોબાઈલ ફોન ચાલુ હોય, ત્યારે તમારા બોસ અથવા મેનેજર તમને કોઈ કામ અથવા બીજા કામ માટે કૉલ કરે તેવી શક્યતા 100% છે. આ પણ એક સતત વિક્ષેપ છે જેનો તમે જ્યારે રજા પર હોવ ત્યારે સામનો કરશો. કામકાજનો દિવસ ક્યારેય પૂરો થતો નથી કારણ કે સેલ ફોનની ઉપલબ્ધતાને કારણે તમારા સુધી પહોંચવું સરળ છે.
  • લોકો તસવીરો અને વીડિયો લેવા માટે ફોનનો દુરુપયોગ કરે છે: મોબાઈલ ફોનથી, તમે ક્યારેય જાણતા નથી કે તમારો બિનસત્તાવાર વીડિયો કે ઈમેજ કોણ રેકોર્ડ કરી રહ્યું છે. લોકો આવું અન્ય લોકોને બ્લેકમેલ કરવા અને ક્યારેક તોફાન કરવા માટે પણ કરે છે. રેકોર્ડ કરેલા વીડિયો અને તસવીરો ખતરનાક સાબિત થઈ શકે છે કારણ કે તેનો ઉપયોગ પોર્ન વીડિયોમાં થઈ શકે છે. લોકો તેનો સોશિયલ સાઈટ પર ઉપયોગ કરે છે, લોકો ફેક એકાઉન્ટ બનાવી શકે છે અને આ બધું આજે દરેક પાસે મોબાઈલ ફોનની ઉપલબ્ધતાને કારણે શક્ય બન્યું છે.

શું માતાપિતાએ તેમના બાળકોને સેલ ફોન આપવો જોઈએ? શું તે તેમના માટે ફાયદાકારક છે?

માતાપિતા તેમના બાળકોને મોબાઇલ ફોન આપવા માંગે છે તે પ્રાથમિક કારણોમાંનું એક એ છે કે તે તેમને તેમની સાથે જોડાયેલા રહેવામાં મદદ કરે છે. જો તેમનું બાળક ટ્યુશનમાં જાય છે અથવા મિત્રના સ્થળે જાય છે, તો તેઓ મોબાઈલ ફોન દ્વારા તેમના બાળકો સાથે સંપર્કમાં રહી શકે છે. તેઓ તેમના બાળકને જીપીએસ ટ્રેકિંગ સાથેનો ફોન આપવાનું પસંદ કરે છે જેથી તેઓ 24X7 તેમના બાળકના સ્થાન પર નજર રાખી શકે.

ફોન બાળકોને તેમના અસાઇનમેન્ટ પૂર્ણ કરવા, પ્રોજેક્ટ વર્ક કરવા અને અમુક વધારાના વર્ગો માટે નેટની મદદ લેવા માટે ફાયદાકારક છે. શાળામાં તેમના મિત્રો અને શિક્ષક સાથે શંકાઓને સ્પષ્ટ કરવા માટે સેલ ફોન આવશ્યક છે. બાળકો અભ્યાસ માટે, માસિક પરીક્ષણો અને વધુ માટે ફોન પર રીમાઇન્ડર્સ સેટ કરી શકે છે. માતા-પિતા ફોન પર જ તેમના બાળકનું શીખવા, રમવા, ટીવી જોવા અને ઘણું બધું કરવા માટેનું સમયપત્રક નક્કી કરવામાં મદદ કરી શકે છે. તે એક નાનું ગેજેટ હોવા છતાં, બાળકોએ નવી વસ્તુઓ શીખવી જ જોઈએ.

મોબાઈલ ફોનના ફાયદા અને ગેરફાયદા પર નિષ્કર્ષ

મોબાઇલ ફોન એ આવશ્યકતા છે. વ્યક્તિએ તે જ રીતે તેનો ઉપયોગ કરવો જોઈએ. તેને તમારી જરૂરિયાત ન બનાવો, એવું વિચારીને કે તમે તેની સાથે જીવી શકતા નથી. તમારી જાતને અપડેટ રાખવા માટે તે સૌથી નવીન તકનીકી ગેજેટ્સમાંથી એક છે. પરંતુ, હંમેશા યાદ રાખો કે તેનો બિનજરૂરી ઉપયોગ કરશો નહીં, કારણ કે તે અત્યંત ફાયદાકારક હોઈ શકે છે પરંતુ તમારા સ્વાસ્થ્ય માટે જોખમી હોઈ શકે છે. આમ, તમારા શિક્ષણ અને વિકાસ માટે શક્ય તેટલી શ્રેષ્ઠ રીતે તેનો ઉપયોગ કરો. તમારી મર્યાદા નક્કી કરો, કારણ કે તમે સારી રીતે જાણો છો કે કોઈપણ વસ્તુનો અતિરેક ખરાબ છે. ટૂંકમાં, સમાજ માટે મોબાઈલ ફોનનું ઘણું મહત્વ, ફાયદા અને ગેરફાયદા છે.

The Impact of Mobile Phones on Our Lives

Mobile phones have significantly transformed the way we live in today’s modern world. This remarkable innovation has brought convenience and comfort to our lives, but like everything else, it has its drawbacks.

  • Easy Communication: Mobile phones have made it incredibly easy to stay connected with family and friends, even those who live far away. They make communication more convenient and affordable. With features like video calls, text messaging, and recorded calls, staying in touch has never been easier.
  • Education Accessibility: During and after the Covid-19 pandemic, many educational institutions started offering online classes. Since not everyone has a laptop or computer at home, mobile phones have played a crucial role in helping students access online education. They’ve brought education to even the most remote corners of the world.
  • Eye Health: Prolonged use of mobile phones can harm eyesight. Complaints like redness, itching, watery eyes, and dryness are common among frequent mobile phone users. Harmful rays emitted by mobile phones can also affect vision in some cases. To counter these effects, it’s advisable to perform basic eye muscle exercises, regularly wash your eyes, and take breaks while using the phone.
  • Distraction: Parents often complain about their children using mobile phones excessively, which can lead to less study and playtime. Even adults can get distracted from work or important tasks by mobile phones. To combat this, it’s a good idea to allocate specific time slots for mobile phone use. For example, students can study for an hour and then spend 10 minutes on their phone, repeating the cycle. Installing time-blocking apps that alert you when you’ve spent too much time on an app can also help.

In today’s age of technological advancement, mobile phones have become incredibly important. They’ve simplified our lives in many ways. However, how we use mobile phones can have both positive and negative effects. While they are designed to improve human interaction and provide quick access to information, overuse can lead to adverse outcomes, including negative health effects.

It’s crucial for both students and adults to be mindful of their mobile phone usage. We can make the best use of mobile phones for accessing information, communication, and entertainment when we use them mindfully and in moderation. Remember, balance is key to reaping the benefits of this technological marvel while minimizing its downsides.

વિદ્યાર્થીઓ માટે મોબાઇલ ફોનના ફાયદા

1 – કટોકટીની પરિસ્થિતિઓમાં ખૂબ ઉપયોગી.

તે દરેકને ખૂબ જ સ્પષ્ટ છે કે મોબાઈલ ફોન આ દુનિયામાં કટોકટીના હેતુથી આવ્યા છે. જો વિદ્યાર્થીઓ પાસે મોબાઈલ ફોન હોય, તો જરૂર પડે ત્યારે કોઈની સાથે સંપર્ક કરવો સરળ છે. ઉદાહરણ તરીકે, જો વિદ્યાર્થીઓને શાળા પછી અથવા શાળામાં કોઈ સમસ્યા હોય, તો તેઓ તરત જ તેમના માતાપિતાનો સંપર્ક કરી શકે છે. તેવી જ રીતે, ફોનવાળા વિદ્યાર્થીઓ કોઈ પણ હાનિકારક પરિસ્થિતિમાં પોલીસનો સંપર્ક કરી શકે છે, અથવા ફાયર બ્રિગેડને ગમે ત્યાં આગ લાગી હોય અથવા તો જરૂર પડે તો પણ તેનો સંપર્ક કરી શકે છે. ડિપાર્ટમેન્ટને બોલાવી શકે છે. તેથી, કોઈપણ કટોકટી માટે મોબાઈલ ફોન એ એક શ્રેષ્ઠ સોલ્યુશન છે.

2 – જ્ સુધારવા માટેનું શ્રેષ્ઠ સાધન

શું તમે અનુભવી શકો છો કે અમારા માતાપિતા અથવા દાદા-દાદીએ કેવી રીતે અભ્યાસ કર્યો? તેમણે અભ્યાસ કર્યો અને ફક્ત માતાપિતા, શિક્ષકો અને પુસ્તકોમાંથી જ જ્ ન મેળવ્યું. વિચારો હવે વસ્તુઓ કેવી બદલાઈ ગઈ છે. અલબત્ત, આપણે માતાપિતા, શિક્ષકો અને પુસ્તકો પાસેથી જ્ ન મેળવીએ છીએ, પરંતુ ઇન્ટરનેટની મદદથી આપણે ઘણું શીખી શકીએ છીએ. જે વિદ્યાર્થીઓ પરીક્ષામાં સારા ગ્રેડ મેળવે છે તેઓને ઇન્ટરનેટથી અતિરિક્ત પ્રાપ્ત થાય છે. શરૂઆતના દિવસોમાં, પુસ્તકાલય દ્વારા વિદ્યાર્થીઓને વધારાના જ્ ન પ્રાપ્ત કરવામાં મદદ મળી હતી અને હવે આ સમગ્ર પુસ્તકાલય મોબાઇલ ફોન તરીકે વિદ્યાર્થીના ખિસ્સામાં છે.

તમે તમારી પાસેની કોઈપણ શંકાને દૂર કરી શકો છો અને મોબાઇલ ફોનની મદદથી એક મહાન સમજૂતી મેળવી શકો છો. તમારા સ્માર્ટફોનના માધ્યમથી તમે ગૂગલ, યુટ્યુબ અને વિકિપીડિયા ખોલી શકો છો, તે ત્રણ માહિતીપ્રદ જાયન્ટ્સ, જે વિદ્યાર્થીઓને ઘણી રીતે મદદ કરે છે. તેથી વિદ્યાર્થીઓ, જો તમારી પાસે મોબાઇલ ફોન છે, તો વધુ સારી સામગ્રી મેળવો અને અનિચ્છનીય સામગ્રીમાં જવાનું ટાળો.

3 – શંકા દૂર કરી શકો છો.

તમારા વિશે વિચારો. જ્યારે તમને આ વિષય પર થોડી શંકા હોય તો તમે શું કરવા જઇ રહ્યા છો? 1950 અથવા 1960 ના દાયકામાં, વિદ્યાર્થીઓ શિક્ષક અથવા મિત્રને મળવા માટે બીજા દિવસ સુધી રાહ જોતા હોય છે. પરંતુ હવે વિદ્યાર્થીઓ તરત જ મિત્ર અથવા શિક્ષકને call કરી શકે છે અને શક્ય તેટલી વહેલી તકે તેમની શંકાઓને દૂર કરી શકે છે.

જો તમે કોઈ મહત્વપૂર્ણ વ્યાખ્યાન ચૂકી ગયા છો, તો તમે મિત્રને call કરી શકો છો અને સમગ્ર વ્યાખ્યાન વિશે શીખી શકો છો. જો તમને તે વ્યાખ્યાન પર કોઈ શંકા છે અથવા વધુ સ્પષ્ટતાની જરૂર છે, તો તમે લેક્ચરરને  call કરી શકો છો અથવા તેને ગૂગલ પણ કરી શકો છો. આ જીવન કેટલું સારું છે ભગવાનનો આભાર – આપણે આ યુગમાં યોગ્ય તકનીકથી જીવીએ છીએ.

4 – વિશ્વભરમાં શું થાય છે તે જાણવું

જ્યારે આપણે શરૂઆતના દિવસો જોઈએ, ફક્ત વૃદ્ધ લોકો જ વિશ્વભરના સમાચારોનું પાલન કરે છે. પરંતુ આજકાલનો ટ્રેન્ડ બદલાયો છે અને સ્કૂલના વિદ્યાર્થીઓ પણ જાણે છે કે વિશ્વભરમાં શું થઈ રહ્યું છે. આ ફેરફાર કેવી રીતે થયો તે મોબાઇલ ફોન અને ઇન્ટરનેટ સિવાય કંઈ જ નથી.

21 માર્ચ 2015 ના રોજ, ગૂગલે તમામ વેબસાઇટ્સ પર તેની નીતિમાં થોડો ફેરફાર કર્યો, એમ જણાવીને કે બધી વેબસાઇટ્સ અને બ્લોગ્સનાં તેમના મોબાઇલ ઉપકરણો સાથે વપરાશકર્તા મૈત્રીપૂર્ણ ડિઝાઇન હોવી જોઈએ. શું તમે જાણો છો કે તેઓએ આ નીતિ કેમ બદલી? આજકાલ પીસી અને લેપટોપ કરતા મોબાઈલ ડિવાઇસીસ વધુ શોધાય છે. તે સરળ રીતે સૂચવે છે કે વિદ્યાર્થીઓ સમાચાર અને અન્ય ઉપયોગી સામગ્રી શોધવા અને વિશ્વભરમાં શું થાય છે તે જાણવા માટે પીસી અથવા લેપટોપને બદલે મોબાઈલ ફોન્સ પર વધુ સમય વિતાવે છે.

5 – સલાહકાર / માર્ગદર્શિકા / પ્રશિક્ષક / શિક્ષક / ડિરેક્ટર

વિદ્યાર્થી પાસે મોબાઈલ ફોન રાખવાનો અર્થ એ છે કે વિદ્યાર્થી પાસે બધું છે. સવારે તે એલાર્મ ઘડિયાળનું કામ કરે છે. આ ઉપરાંત, જો તમે રિમાઇન્ડર પર કેટલીક નોંધો લગાડો તો તે રીમાઇન્ડરનું કાર્ય કરે છે. જ્યાં સુધી તમારી પાસે મોબાઇલ ફોન છે, ત્યાં સુધી તમારે કેલ્ક્યુલેટરની જરૂર નથી. તમે સ્નેપશોટ લઈ શકો છો અથવા કોઈ લેક્ચર સ્લાઇડ ડાઉનલોડ કરી શકો છો. અથવા તમે બધા વ્યાખ્યાન પણ રેકોર્ડ કરી શકો છો. જો કોઈ શંકા હોય, તો તમે તેને ગૂગલ કરી શકો છો. તમે તમારા ઘરના એકાઉન્ટ્સ મેનેજ કરી શકો છો.

Six-Word Story Summarizing Strategy

  • Posted by Tiziana Lambert

write a 6 word summary of the corrupt bargain

As I prepare for my upcoming classes, I wanted to share a simple but powerful strategy that I plan to sprinkle in throughout my sessions. 

Mark Twain once said, “I didn’t have time to write you a short letter, so I wrote you a long one.” Think about this! The ability to only select six words to tell an entire story requires time, thought, and deliberate word choice. 

My daughter suffers from something her 5th-grade teacher calls, “word vomit”. ALL of her wonderful knowledge she has gained over the last 10 years either by reading books, traveling, listening in her classes, or just by living life always seems to find its very detailed way into her writing assignments. She wants to share it all.

Teaching kids to intentionally think about their word choice during writing takes practice. One great strategy is the Six-Word Story . This strategy helps kids practice answering a writing prompt in just six words. For example, Ernest Hemingway was once said to have written the shortest memoir. “For sale: baby shoes, never worn.” Six simple words strung together to invoke such profound emotion, empathy, passion, and curiosity. 

Although the Six-Word Story has been around for quite some time, I’ve recently been inspired by the podcast, VrainWaves , to add some creativity and fun to the activity. Students can create a video using their story that incorporates both imagery and tone. Adding creativity to critical thinking bumps this activity up a notch. 

So, during your next family dinner, try asking your kids to describe a character or event from their latest book by using only six words. Encourage kids to pay more attention to “the big idea” rather than specific details. Remember, it’s okay to guide them or just give them examples. This takes practice. 

Here are some stories I’ve found for inspiration:

Stories that convey a sense of fear:

  • “I can never outrun this clown”
  • “Surfboarding: Dangling feet equals shark bait”

Stories that convey the 2020 global pandemic:

  • “Not a criminal, but running masked.”
  • “Hallway hike, bathtub swim, Pandora concert.”

Random Stories:

  • “Social media: friend, foe, and accomplice” 
  • “Stuffies are real no matter what”
