Assignment SOCW 6000 week 4 Project: Agency Visit In order to function as change agents, social workers interact with others in a wide variety of organizations. Visiting a social work agency allows students of social work to get a glimpse of the form that these interactions may take. For this Assignment, visit a nonprofit social service agency in your area and interview a social worker there. By Day 7 of this week, you identify your agency and the social worker you will collaborate with. Your Final Project, submitted in Week 10 of the course, should focus on the following. During the interview: 1. Focus on the social worker’s educational background and training. 2. Determine whether the social worker is licensed, and find out about what brought him or her to the field as well as his or her work history. 3. Inquire about the social worker’s job activities, professional roles, and target client group, as well as services provided by his or her organization. 4. Determine the social worker’s professional work preferences (e.g., group, individual). 5. Ask about professional development and the social worker’s strategies for self-care. By Week 10, submit a 5- to 7-page written account of your findings that satisfies the guidelines detailed in the Project: Agency Visit and Paper Rubric. For this week: By Day 7, submit the names of the social service agency and the social worker you plan to interview. This submission will not be graded but you will receive feedback from your Instructor on your chosen agency and social worker. To submit your Project, do the following: · Save your Project as a “.doc” file with the filename “WK4Proj+last name+first initial.doc”. For example, Sally Ride’s filename would be “WK4ProjRideS.doc”. · To upload your Project information, click on Projects on the course navigation menu, and then click the “Project – Week 4” link. Assignment SOCW6001 week 5 Week 4: Mezzo Skills Introduction Picture this: You are a new intern at a mental health agency that serves children and adults with varied concerns. Your supervisor assigns you the task of co-leading a group. Your first thought is “Hurray, how exciting!” Your next thought is “Wait, I have never run a group before” or “I have never run a group with this population before.” How will you prepare in order to assist with the group? What questions might you ask about the group in order to be best prepared to co-lead? Running a group takes much preparation and planning and sometimes the best laid plans fall through (for example, no one shows up). Further, running groups presents different challenges compared to working with individuals. Consider the obvious—there are many more people to work with at one time. How might that challenge also be a benefit? How might your group benefit from the interaction of its members both with you and with each other? This week, you analyze the benefits and pitfalls of social work practice in groups. You also examine roles of group member ...

Guidelines Paper is based on one novel , Frankenstein . We have learned that one element crucial to horror stories is a monster. After reading the entire novel , you will write a two- to three-page paper analyzing whether Victor Frankenstein or the creation is the true monster in the novel. You must pick one. Then state three reasons/actions why he is the monster. DO NOT: o Claim they are both monsters o Claim that neither is o Claim that there is no monster because Victor is hallucinating, has a split personality, is dreaming, etc. o Claim that the real monster is abstract/philosophical--narcissism, society, nature vs. nurture, etc These are all innovative and great and may make a great essay but that's not the assignment. You must make a claim that Victor is the true monster OR his creation is the true monster and support your claim. Even though it is your interpretation of who the monster is, when you write academic essays, you are really asserting a claim and attempting to convince readers to agree with your stance. To do this effectively, it’s best to create a more objective tone, pulling back on personal statements and writing in terms of what Shelley intended and how readers in general perceive/infer the information. In other words, avoid statements like: “I think the monster is really Victor Frankenstein.” And use statements like: “After careful analysis of Shelley’s characters, readers agree that Victor is the true monster of the novel.” Also, a major pitfall to avoid: Do not claim that the monster is Victor then focus on the creation in the body of the essay and why the creation is not the monster. Throughout the semester, I have been posing questions on the Discussion Board that you have been responsible for. You were then required in some weeks to respond to a peer’s answers. The purpose of this is to cultivate interaction among peers as you are working in such solitude when in an online environment. However, I know that it is hard to routinely read a lot of what your peers have to say. So this second paper is the one opportunity for you to truly HEAR several angles of a discussion, much like in a traditional classroom, and assimilate the opinions of your classmates. For the essay, after you first come to your own observation about who the true monster is then read through a handful of each of the four Frankenstein discussion threads (Storyline Shift, Victor Frankenstein, The Creation, and Frankenstein Finale). Find a few posts that support your observation. You do not need to read through all of the posts for each thread but read through enough to help inform your selection. Throughout your essay you will need to include at least three quotes from two different threads (one per body paragraph/reason). These quotes need to support your claim. In other words, if you claim that Victor is the monster, don’t include a quote by a peer that focuses on the monster’s compassion. Also, be.

Guided Response: Respond to at least two of your classmates. Choose posts that address a different developmental period than you chose. Determine if the selected activity and toy is appropriate to the age group and is tied to Piaget’s theory. Provide feedback and suggestions for improvement. Melissa Pieringer An activity for the adolescent room: hypothetical problem solving According to Piaget’s theory children 12 and over are in the formal operations stage of cognitive development. This is the final stage of cognitive development that takes place prior to adulthood. Children at this stage are developing abstract reasoning, deductive reasoning, and hypothetical thinking skills. Children at this stage are able to use hypothetico-deductive reasoning which involves forming a hypothesis, predicting a possible or likely outcome for a given scenario, and taking into consideration various factors that may influence the outcome (Mossler, 2014). At the formal operations stage children also develop the ability to think abstractly and weigh multiple potential outcomes for a given situation (Mossler, 2014). According to the Jean Piaget Society (2016), one of the best ways to promote the development of abstract thinking skills is to explore hypothetical topics, global issues, political issues, or social issues and allow children to come up with potential creative solutions to the problem (The Jean Piaget Society, 2016). A suggested hypothetical scenario to explore could be how humans could live in outer space (The Jean Piaget Society, 2016). Other present day issues to explore could include global warming, pollution, limited resources, war, poverty, famine, etc. A toy or object for the adolescent room: art and crafting supplies It is suggested that educators working with children at this stage use visual models such as charts, illustrations, and diagrams to keep children engaged in learning (The Jean Piaget Society, 2016). Furthermore, children should be encouraged to work creatively with a variety of materials. Art and crafting supplies could be used to create illustrations, diagrams, or posters demonstrating the solutions that they come up with to the topic or issue being explored. Therefore, I would request that a variety of art and crafting supplies be given to the adolescent room. Some ideas for materials could include the following: · Poster paper or boards · Paint · Markers · Colored pencils · Crayons · Scissors · Glue or glue sticks · Construction paper · Old magazines · Stencils · Rulers · String References Mossler, R.

Guided Response: Review the philosophies of education that your classmates chose and write a minimum 150-word response to at least two of them. Comment on whether you agree or disagree with their philosophies of education and their rational for them. Suggest additional ways in which the theories they have chosen could be applied to educational environments. By: Melissa I have been in the classroom for over 12 years, and every day I learn something new. Every day I encounter a new student or discover something new about a student in my class that has been there the whole year. Every encounter is different, every child is different, and not one child thinks the same or learns the same. I discovered this early on in my teaching career, but I am constantly reminded how we cannot take for granted streamlined teaching in the classroom. Teachers are not the only ones who teach in the classroom, the students in your classroom teach each other and teach you the teacher how to explain something differently and view things differently and reach the same destination to answer the same question correctly. I believe that being an effective teacher one must get to know students on a personal level. Not by reading their folders at the beginning of the year, but by asking open ended questions, listening to how they respond and how they express themselves either verbally or written expression. Teachers need to listen to their students not just hear them and move on, but take the child as a whole and help them reach another level in their education journey. Special education is more than just accommodations; it is accommodating children to their needs and finding what works for them. Some need verbal cues to know that they are doing well and motivate them to keep working towards success, while others need positive written expression to push them over the hump and work to accomplish their goals. Most children with learning disabilities suffer from low self esteem and act up or become the class clown are constantly in trouble. They become the trouble makers or the ones always in trouble for not completing homework assignments, and because teachers only see this on the surface they push them off to one side of the classroom. What most general education teachers don’t see is how much they are asking for help. Education should be used to empower every student and every teacher. Being an educator is more than just teaching to a test, it is planting the seed of enjoying the love for learning. We need to remember that we are educating our future. By: Katrina Children learn best in an environment where they feel safe, especially younger children in an early childhood program. For toddlers the progressivism philosophy is one that works best. Toddlers cannot sit still for long periods of time and they need things that are developmentally appropriate. They need activities that allow them to use all of their senses.

Guided Response: When responding to your peers, suggest ways to continue to strengthen the contribution listed, so that this influence remains strong in our education system today. Describe why you believe this contribution should continue to be a part of our current education system. Respond to at least two peers. BY: Tiffany Futch Improved teaching means teachers were taught to teach on more of a professional level by actual people qualified to teach. Normal schools broadened their curricula to the training of secondary school teachers, requirement of the completion of high school to be admitted to college for teacher training, teachers must have a bachelor’s degree. “High school completion was seldom required for admission, and the majority of instructors did not hold a college degree themselves.” (Diener, 2008). Society has come a long way when it comes to teaching, and who is qualified to teach. Higher education is required more than ever in today’s society, and all of these examples have helped with the success of the way teachers complete their degrees today. When it comes to teaching in the 21 st century, full time teachers are required to have a minimum of a four year bachelor’s degree. Technology helps play a role in the success of teachers and students in and out of the classroom. Like the rest of the class we are all completing our degree in an online program. When it comes to teaching in the classroom teachers can use computers and other devices to help children excel, and outside of the classroom, the students can utilize the internet to help them with projects, and even communicate with other students to help with projects. Webb. L. D. (2014). History of American education: Voices and perspectives. San Diego, CA: Bridgepoint Education, Inc. BY:Christine Rodriguez Teacher training is very important for teachers because they should be able to teach multiple subjects and be qualified in what they are teaching. Strengthening of the normal school curriculum and standards was needed in order for the school system to get better. In the 1900's schools exploded from 50 to almost 350, but with the low academic levels, teacher and students were not able to teach or learn at a college level. Teachers did not have, at this point, a college degree themselves. As the population kept increases and there was a higher demand for education, everyone began to need a high school diploma to be admitted for a college degree. University enter teacher training: "Teacher training at the college or university level, typically consisted of one or two courses in the "science and art" of teaching, had been offered at a limited number of institutions as early as the 1830s, and the universities had always been institutions for the education of those who taught in the Latin grammar schools, academies, and high schools" (Webb, 2014). This did not qualify them as teachers when they took these courses, but it did make them becom.

Guided Response: As you read the responses of your classmates, consider how their negative educational experience could have been changed to support student learning. Respond to at least two of your classmates’ posts. Provide additional suggestions for them in creating their own positive, stimulating learning environment. Be sure to respond to any queries or comments posted by your instructor. Melissa Cagno The biggest negative experience that I have had is with a previous employer, and it was my first day as a preschool teacher in a facility nearby. On my first day, I walked into a situation that made a huge impact on the way I viewed this facility. When I started that day, I was told that I would not be in “my classroom” that I would be filling in for a teacher that was out that day. I didn’t have an issue with that fact and was actually up for the challenge. But when I entered the classroom I noticed there were no rules, no structure, no lesson plans and the classroom was complete chaos. I managed to create some spur of the moment lessons and engaged in music as much as possible. Then when it was time for lunch, and I went to serve it, it was pure sugar and very unhealthy. I left for the day feeling defeated, tired, frustrated and stressed and nowhere to turn. I expressed my concerns throughout the day along with a lot of severe health issues to the owner and was brushed off. I care a lot about the children’s safety and their learning environment, and I felt like I was drowning. Needless to say, I ended up moving on from that position because I felt helpless and without a direction to improve anything. I have had several positive experiences throughout my educational background. The classrooms were always welcoming, warm and inviting and it showed that the teachers cared about their classrooms and their students. Those classrooms made me excited about becoming a teacher and gave me something to work towards in the future. “The foundation for successful learning and a safe and secure classroom climate is the relationship that teachers develop with their students (Sousa, Tomlinson, 2011)”. The teacher-student relationship is something that should be built on from day one. If the students do not trust or know you, they will feel uneasy and unsafe in the classroom environment. It is so important to form the relationship with your students to ensure communication and safety of your students. Another way to provide a positive learning environment is with your attitude. If you have a positive and fun attitude, it will show through your lessons and your students will enjoy being in your class every day which will affect how they learn. Lastly, the organization is a big key to a positive and stimulating learning environment.

Guided Response: Review several of your classmates’ posts and respond to at least two of your peers original posts. Please keep in mind that this assignment can be a sensitive subject and that people’s past experiences may have shaped their views. Choose one point from your peer’s post that made an impact on you and explain why this particular comment resonated with you. Share your thoughts on the disadvantages and advantages of segregation with your peers. BY: Tiffany Bradley When preparing for this week’s discussion post I was a little at awe, I personally had never heard of the little rock nine. And I’m not that far from Arkansas. The Little Rock Nine was a group of nine African American students that were enrolled in Little Rock Central High School in 1957. However, their enrollment was engaged by the Little Rock Crisis. Which the students were initially prevented from entering the racially segregated school by Orval Faubus, the Governor of Arkansas. When President Dwight D. Eisenhower done an intervention, the students were then allowed to attend the school. The nine students were Ernest Green, Elizabeth Eckford, Jefferson Thomas, Terrance Roberts, Thelma Mothershed, and Melba Pattillo Beals. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Rock_Nine) Personally, if I was in the situation that these nine students experienced I would have been lost, afraid, and felt like something was wrong with me. A child of any race should not have to be put in this situation to feel unwanted or that they are unwelcome because they are of a different color. Many times however that is not the case. And this was the case for these nine children. My reaction would have been a sense of sadness, and anger. I don’t believe I would not have made a seen, simply out of fear of being hurt. I would have wanted to stand up for myself as well as my peers of the same color. Nowadays, if the situation would arise that an African American child was not allowed into a while school, yes I would stand up. And voice my opinion. It should not matter the color of a child’s skin. They should be allowed to receive the proper education. Without first having to go through turmoil. This situation I’m sure was emotionally devastating for these nine children. Who simply just wanted to get an education. (Webb. L. D. (2014). History of American education: Voices and perspectives. San Diego, CA: Bridgepoint Education, Inc.) De facto segregation, I believe does not have a detrimental effect on students nowadays. Some adults that were raised to racial, still are. But if children are taught not to be that way. Then most of the time children learn to except another student of a different minority. Where I live we have a lot of white and minority students. Which none are treated differently. They are all in school for the same reason to get an education. My own personal beliefs are we are all children of God, and just because we are different races, does not mean.

Guided Response: Respond to at least one classmate that has been assigned a different position from you and offer a rebuttal. Be sure to provide evidence from the literature to support your opposition. Also, respond to your original post and provide your own opinion of inclusion based on the evidence from the research and the responses of your classmates. Did your thinking change after reading your classmates’ viewpoints? Share your concerns about working with students with special needs in the regular classroom. BY: Mallory Johnson What is inclusion? Inclusion is an educational environment in which all students are grouped together in the same classroom regardless of their intelligence level hence the phrase used, “Least Restrictive Environment”. This practice means that an increasing number of regular classroom teachers are called upon to teach exceptional children in regular classrooms, sometimes also termed inclusive classrooms (LeFrançois, G. 2011). IDEA was established for children with learning disabilities and has been mandated as a part of every educational facility. As defined by the American Psychological Association, “The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) ensures that all children with disabilities are entitled to a free appropriate public education to meet their unique needs and prepare them for further education, employment, and independent living.” Not every student learns equally; however, every student should be given the equal opportunity to do so regardless of their learning abilities. With that, inclusion provides an environment where not only students will learn together, but regular students will respect and build friendships with students with learning disabilities. While I never had the change to experience this firsthand, this type of environment will enhance friendships and students helping one another. I think that when a child is included in something, their self confidence improves and they will strive to work harder. Second, inclusion allows students to understand one another and learn from each other as far as customs and courtesies and attitudes. Students are vulnerable to imitate what they see whether it be good or bad. According to the text, one of the benefits of inclusion is the learning of socially appropriate behaviors by students with disabilities as a result of modeling the behavior of other students. Lastly, inclusive classrooms provide students with learning disabilities access to general learning like the rest of their peers. They will learn the same information instead of the curriculum being adjusted which may omit valuable information. In this case, these students may be learning information that could be too easy depending on where they stand knowledge wise. For others, the adjustment may hinder learning more challenging information some could be ready for. Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). (n.d.).
