Our 'mind' interprets the visual world around us as an unitary phenomenon, but is vision really just one sense? We are going to deconstruct the visual world in this series of postings. We are going to start off with the basic visual receptors on the retina—d efine the various roles of rods and cones . Where are the majority of rods located? where a re the majority of cones located? where do we find the bipolar cells and the ganglion cells? in relation to the rods and cones? Finally, where do the signals from the retina go in the brain? (2 areas) in which area is the "vision" finally destined to go and be understood? .

Discuss an example from your life or from your observations that illustrates one or more of the concepts or theories you learned about in this week’s readings or audiovisual resources. Make sure you are clear in describing the course concept or theory that best applies to your experiences or observations. Regardless of which prompt you choose, you are encouraged to use one of the assigned readings or audiovisual resources to support your points. Respond to your classmates’ posts, sharing any commonalities or differences between your classmates’ perspectives and experiences and your own. Last week you studied the concept of prejudice in relation to discrimination and other sociological aspects of diversity. One element of prejudice is stereotyping, which refers to a process in which people make generalizations about a group of people. Given the media’s pervasiveness in American culture, how the media portrays members of social groups can influence the perceptions of the audience and contribute to or refute common stereotypes. To learn more about the way in which media represent members of social groups, and the consequences of those representations, read the following resources: Colburn, A., & Melander, L. A. (2018). Beyond black and white: An analysis of newspaper representations of alleged criminal offenders based on race and ethnicity . Journal of Contemporary Criminal Justice, 34 (4), 383–398. Frederickson, A. (2017). Sugar and spice and everything nice: Gender representation in media . Journal of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, 56 (10), S108. Watch Racial Stereotypes [Video] , which traces the history of stereotyping and discusses a key theory of media influence, called the theory of cultivation.

Discuss a type of hazard control that you have applied or that has been applied to reduce the risk of a job you perform at work or at home. Explain what that control is and describe where it fits within the hierarchy of controls (elimination, substitution, engineering, administrative, or PPE). Explain how successful, or unsuccessful, it is at eliminating or reducing your risk while performing the job. When commenting on another student's post, offer suggestions on controls that could be applied from an additional level (or levels) of the hierarchy. ALSO PLEASE REPLY TO ANOTHER STUDENTS COMMENT BELOW WITH A POSITIVE COMMENT RESPONSE DEXTER: Not so long ago, I was in charge of Safety for a fleet of vehicles and drivers. The trucks always had a "team", i.e. 2, and sometimes 3 to a truck to perform delivery duties. There always seemed to be accidents that were minor (damage) to the vehicles with no injuries to the driver team. These accidents would mostly occur while backing. Prior to my managing of fleet safety, technological advancements had "SUBSTITUTED" the job of a good old-fashined "spotter". Back up cameras, sensors and additional mirrors had replaced a person simply disembarking the vehicle and positioning themselves in a safe location to make eye-contact with the driver; and usher the driver/truck into the parked position. Seeing that "ENGINEERING CONTROLS" were already in-place, I needed to affect "ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROLS" and revise the drivers current Standard Operating Procedures, SOP's, (outlining backing) to incorporate the passenger performing duties as a spotter. This also necessitated a training component for the entire fleet of drivers as to expectations around both critical functions of driving and acting as the spotter. This change was implemented successfully and minor-backing accidents, without a spotter, reduced significantly and the engineering controls were present as an additional measure in lieu of ELIMINATING the spotter. .

Discretionary Parole versus Mandatory Parole? Sixteen states and the federal government abolished discretionary parole release from prison in favor of mandatory parole. Another four states abolished it for certain violent offenses or other crimes against a person. Proponents of discretionary parole release argue that abandonment of discretionary parole has a detrimental effect. They believe that parole serves a beneficial purpose by requiring inmates to focus their efforts on successful reentry from prison to the community or risk revocation and possible reincarceration. They argue that without the prospect of discretionary parole, inmates have fewer incentives for cognitive transformation and, in turn, opportunities for work, reuniting with families, and finding housing. Research and include the following in your paper: What advantages and disadvantages would you see in abolishing discretionary parole in favor of mandatory parole? Explain. If you were a state legislator, what advantages and disadvantages would you see in abolishing discretionary parole in favor of mandatory parole? Explain. Your paper should be submitted in a Word document and include proper incorporation of APA 6th edition format (title page, in-text citations, and a reference page). Your paper should be between 2-3 pages in length and should use 12-point, Times New Roman font. .

Disciplining Students Receiving Special Education By Vincent H. A. Gordon, Jr., Ph.D. April 2017 Abstract A brief synopsis of the legality of disciplining students with special needs in public education is presented. An example of a case study is also presented from the experience of the author demonstrating laws surrounding providing students with a free and public education (FAPE). Examples of the application of the laws protecting students’ rights to FAPE and the responsibility of school districts to insure the timely response of handling discipline issues are also presented. Legal Analysis Laws are made to protect the rights, liberty, life, and the pursuits of happiness of individuals. This paraphrase of the Fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America is exhibited in every area of society. The discipline of education also has these same laws to protect and to preserve the sanctity of instruction where the transmittal of knowledge is presented in an atmosphere that is conducive to the learning environment. When students habitually display inappropriate attitudes and behaviors especially after appropriate disciplinary responses are applied to try to discourage those destructive actions, alternative means of providing education to those students become an urgent priority of the school to insure that instruction and learning continue and are not hindered by the wrongful choices of disrespectful, disobedient, and disruptive students. There are federal laws, state statutes, case laws, and local policies which address the areas of rights, liberty, life, and the pursuits of happiness of individuals who are disabled. The intent of these laws, statutes, and policies are positive. The main purpose of these safeguards is to insure that everyone is treated fairly and is not disadvantaged due to a physical, mental, or emotional disability. The challenge exists when individuals with a disability or disabilities exploit their disability or disabilities and the intent of these laws, statutes, and policies, to perpetuate their wrongful and selfish impulses. The topic: Disciplining Students Receiving Special Education attempts to address the importance of following legal documents to help and not to hinder the protection and preservation of instruction and learning in a safe environment for all students. According to Title 20>Chapter 33>Subchapter II>c 1415 Procedural Safeguards, there are different types of procedures listed which address the responsibilities and rights of schools, parents, and students pertaining to disciplining students receiving Special Education. One of those procedures discussed the steps to be initiated by the school prior to initiating or refusing to initiate a change of placement. (3) Written prior notice to the parents of the ch.
