IDS 401 Final Project Part One Guidelines and Rubric Overview This course explores globalization and its impact on shaping the world around us. Globalization influences society, and society influences each of us, creating a feedback loop between them. We will critically analyze this feedback loop in this course through social, historical, and theoretical approaches to globalization as well as the four general education lenses: history, humanities, natural and applied sciences, and social sciences. Each of these four perspectives allows us to better understand the construction of globalization and its interrelation with society. From this enhanced understanding, you will be equipped to draw connections between global society and your personal and professional lives, helping you to become a better-informed citizen who can make a positive difference in the world. Issues and events in globalization have a pervading influence on many aspects of society, and how they are dealt with requires diverse knowledge and perspectives to investigate and change. The purpose of this project is to examine a specific issue or event in globalization and how it impacts individuals and society through the development of a critical analysis portfolio and a presentation in which you will demonstrate your ability to think critically, investigate, and communicate clearly.

throughout your time as a CAS student, you have been exposed to various developmental theories and practices that align with them. One way that we can connect theoretical understandings with developmentally appropriate practices is through the spaces we create for children and adolescents at-risk. Develop a classroom or community center/plot of land floorplan where there is intentionality behind every inch of the space. Label each area with its purpose and what area of development it is meant to foster. Be specific, go beyond saying, "Cognitive, Social-emotional, Language, or Physical development". You should have a minimum of 4 pages: 1. A cover page (1 points) where you list your name, student ID, dat, "HW3" and then tell me about the space you are designing and for what age group and population. · Ages can range from 4 year old's to 18 year old's · Populations can range from a low-income classroom in an urban, suburban, or rural area to a targeted population (e.g., LGBTQIA+, sexual assault survivors, individuals with learning differences, undocumented youth, etc.) · Overarching goal of the space you are creating 2. The visual (3 points) representation of the space you created with each area labeled · You can do this with colored pencils and paper (take a picture or scan it) or on your ipad/tablets and computers using any software/program available to you. · You can label using letters or numbers or short label names/descriptors 3. The index (4 points) for each area with · a full name of the area & its goals · the developmental aspect it is targeting · through what processes specifically it is targeting that area of development · Finally, how is it serving a buffer or protective factor for children and adolescents at risk 4. Reflection (2 points) on the process and how realistic your design would be in a school or organization with low resources. · What 3 areas would you cut and what 2 areas would you absolutely fight to keep if budget was a barrier? *** You do not need to be an artistic genius to do well on this assignment. It is most important to demonstrate your intentionality in curating spaces for children and adolescents at-risk. Importantly, it needs to be clear that you thought through different processes that impact development. ***There are no file format restrictions given that this is more than a writing assignment.

Invervention Proposal (all assignments mentioned below are attached) In Week Three, you created a literature review around the scenario that you selected in Week One (scenario is below). For the Week Six assignment, you will create an intervention proposal that contains a professional recommendation for the chosen case study. The Intervention Proposal should incorporate the Week Three Literature Review and Week One Annotated Bibliography assignments. In a 10- to 12-page paper (not including the title page or references page) the student will: Briefly restate the problem from the chosen case study. Compose a thesis statement that contains the student’s professional recommendation. The thesis statement should be located near the end of the second paragraph of the report. Explain the relevant theories and empirical studies that have led to the student’s professional recommendation. The explanation must include evaluations of seven to eight, peer-reviewed articles from the Annotated Bibliography that was created in Week Two. At least one of these articles must be about a specific empirical study. In addition, the explanation must: Evaluate each article (comparing and contrasting them with the other articles) and answer the following questions: What was the researchers’ research question? What was their hypothesis? How many participants did they have? Was the research design method appropriate for that particular hypothesis? Was it valid? Did their findings support the hypothesis? What are the implications? What are the limitations? Discuss the opposing sides to the student’s recommendation and explain: Why it is relevant. Why it should be considered. Why it should be discounted for this recommendation. Discuss any limitations or gaps in existing research. Restate the professional recommendation in one to two concluding paragraphs. The paper must include a title page and references page, and it must be formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center. Organization tip: It is best to start with the least related and most broad article and move toward the most relevant. It can be helpful to think of the organization for this report as a funnel: The articles evaluated should get more and more specific and narrow in breadth throughout the report. Language Note: This report is being written for an audience that is not familiar with the theories and material that are discussed. This means that the paper needs to be accessible to all individuals. All technical terms, acronyms, and theories should be explained and jargon should be avoided. Scenario Three: The Psychology of Disaster Preparedness In September 2003 a Category Two hurricane made landfall in a town that was ill prepared for such a natural disaster. The hurricane claimed over 100 lives and caused approximately $1.4 billion in damages. This large American city had not experienced a natural disaster of this proportion for more than 100 years.

Assignment 1: the sociological viewpoint toward social problems (Due Week 3) Overview One of the most crucial components to this course concerns addressing social problems in society from a sociological viewpoint as opposed to a strictly policy-oriented, psychological, or criminal justice viewpoint. Although many different viewpoints in social science are valid and have a lot of importance, it is equally important for us to understand how sociology looks at the nature of social problems in society today. This paper will enable us to explore why certain social problems seem to be regarded as more significant than others. Our job will be in defining the sociological viewpoint, and choosing one social problem that we think is of high importance. We will build upon the topic we choose in this paper for our second and third writing assignments. Instructions Construct a 2-4 page paper that fully explores each of the following areas: 1) Citing our textbook material, explain how the sociological approach toward social problems differs from other approaches. Why are certain problems considered significant and others are not? 2) Next, choose one social problem that exists in society that you think is particularly serious, and explain it in sociological terms. This social problem should be measurable in some statistical way. (Is it increasing, and if so, how? Among which groups of people, and for how long, etc.?) 3) What might be one important way in which the social problem is currently being addressed in society? 4) Please define and identify at least four concepts from our text relevant to your chosen social problem. 5) Analyze the way in which these concepts help us better understand the nature of the social problem you are discussing. Don’t forget to include proper APA-style citation and reference. The paper should be typed, double-spaced, 1” margins, arial or times new roman 11 pt font, and saved as .doc, .rtf or .pdf in the format: lastname_SOCI212_HW1.doc DISCLAIMER: Originality of attachments will be verified by Turnitin. Both you and your instructor will receive the results. Leon-Guerrero, A. (2015). Social Problems, 5th edition. Los Angeles: Sage Publications, Inc. (book) .

Research Paper Options and Guidelines For the individual final paper, students can choose one of the following four options (A, B, C, and D). All papers should be a minimum of (6) typed pages and a maximum of (10) pages. In addition to your 6-10 pages, please include a title page, a table of contents, and reference pages. At least 2/3 of the references should have been published within the last 5 years. Papers should be in APA format, double-spaced using Times New Roman, size 12 for the font. Option A: The purpose of this final paper is to enhance your knowledge and understanding of normal development during adolescence or adulthood. You should select a developmental task (or tasks) appropriate for either adolescence or adulthood. For example, the development of an identity is a task that typically occurs during adolescence in Erickson’s theory of psychosocial development. You should review the literature related to this developmental task and write a comprehensive literature review that addresses not only the traditional views and theoretical explanations for this task, but also explores non-traditional explanations as well. For example, if you choose the issue of spousal abuse, you must address the traditional views outlined in the literature which define the cause and role of battering in interpersonal relationships including the alternative view of some theorists that violence in relationships can be viewed as acceptable behavior. In so doing, you must identify the value systems underlying both traditional and alternative views on the issues. Your literature review may focus on normal development in adolescence or adulthood, or abnormal development. Illustrating your literature with case examples, either from your field experiences or the literature is required. For example, you may focus on abnormal development in adolescence, providing a case example of how teenage pregnancy, substance abuse, or depression may derail the normal development process.

Explain why relativism and egoism pose a challenge to the possibility of rational discussion in ethics. Using the readings in our text and my Weekly Comments, show how these doctrines might be challenged. Feminist Care Ethics might be seen as a challenge to Kantian Ethics. Explain with reference to the readings in our text and my Weekly Comments. Feminist Care Ethics might be seen as a form of Virtue Ethics with the major difference being a disagreement about the nature of human excellence and the virtues necessary for acting ethically. Explain with reference to the readings in our text and my Weekly Comments. Explain the Trolley problem and the differences in the ways that utilitarianism, Kantian deontology, and Virtue Ethics would address the problem. Base your answer on the readings in our text and my Weekly Comments. Both Utilitarianism and Kant's deontological ethics sometimes lead to morally horrendous actions related to the sanctity of human life. Kantian ethics is able to avoid the morally horrendous actions that can be justified using Utilitarianism, while Utilitarianism can avoid the morally horrendous actions that accord with Kantian ethics. Virtue ethics, though, would not have the same sorts of problems addressing issues discussed in the text, such as torturing terrorists if it were necessary to save lives, the Trolley Problem, killing an innocent person to save the lives of others, lying or making a false promise to save the lives of others. Explain with reference to the readings in our text and my Weekly Comments, using specific examples of the types of cases that would provide problems for each of the theories. Week 2: Ethical Relativism Ethical Relativism is the claim that moral views are relative to the culture in which one lives or to the individual (also called Subjectivism). Many people declare themselves to be ethical relativists, but very few actually believe it to be true in practice. Often people are simply trying to avoid getting into an argument when they say that their ethical positions are just opinions. If it was true that you should avoid arguments about ethical issues, you would have to believe that there are good moral or possibly prudential reasons for not getting into arguments with others, that it was good for everyone to avoid conflict about controversial issues, which means that it is simply correct to be tolerant, making you opposed to relativism. Since you would be claiming that tolerance is a virtue that everyone should accept. In other cases, you may be concerned with ethnocentrism, the practice of imposing your views on others. But then, you would have to believe that being ethnocentric is morally wrong and that there are good moral reasons for not being ethnocentric. All of the people in the class took tolerance to be a moral virtue, some claiming that it is a result of cultural relativism. But you can’t derive a universal value from cultural relativism.
