Early Medieval Cultures EssayCompare the development of one spec.docx

madlynplamondon

Early Medieval Cultures Essay Compare the development of one specific Islamic and one specific Christian location between 632–1000 C.E. When discussing each location, provide a more specific timeline, and consider adding examples of significant leaders, political and social structures, beliefs, and cultural products (stories, philosophies, theologies, artifacts, art, and architecture). Your comparison should identify similarities and differences in the two religious-based cultures, and also indicate influences they share. Be careful not to compare the religions as a whole but instead focus on a range of cultural elements in your two specific locations because cultures may vary even within one religion depending on time and place. What insight about the historical development of these two cultures did you gain from the comparison? Step 1: Review the section of the Unit V Study Guide entitled, “Be Careful When Making Historical Assumptions.” Step 2: Choose two appropriate sources, not including the textbook. At least one source must come from the CSU Online Library. The Academic Search Complete and eBook Academic Collection databases in the CSU Online Library would be good places to start your search. Resources from outside of the library should be credible and peer-reviewed by historians and cannot include Wikipedia, Biography.com, History.com, or any other .com site; resources should also not be taken from any type of message board or other encyclopedia-type sites, including those listed in the CSU Online Library research guides, which are provided for quick reference only and not for paper research. If you need additional help with using or locating information in the CSU Online Library, there are library video tutorials available on the main page of the online library under the heading “Research Guides.” Step 3: Complete your research. Choose one interesting comparison that illustrates the main point that you want to make about these cultures during this period. Gather details about your choice. Compare similar features (known as “comparing like terms”). For example, compare cities to cities, education systems to education systems, technologies to technologies, stories to stories, ideas about the nature of God to ideas about the nature of God, and other features. Make sure you complete the comparison for all features or note why you think there is not a like term for some features. Comparison includes consideration of both similarities and differences. Here are some examples to consider: · the promotion and use of learning by leading figures; · the relationship between religious and political authority; · the shaping of artifacts (leader, idea, practice, or structure) by time period and environment; · the shaping of societies by artifacts and whether different people were affected differently; and · the way that different elements of culture reflect power arrangements, goals, hierarchies, and/or challenges.

My degree is an EDD in Performance Improvement Leadership .docx

griffinruthie22

My degree is an EDD in Performance Improvement Leadership Assignment Overview In the assignment this week, you will write a paper (7–10 pages), including a literature review, that examines ethical behavior, diversity, and civil discourse in the context of your particular focus and specialization. What You Need to Know Ethical Reasoning Morris (2016) tells us: In fall 2016, more than twenty million students enrolled across more than four million colleges and universities in the U.S. One in four students were members of a minority group, and approximately one million were international students. These students interacted with approximately four million administrators and faculty and staff members in a diversity of settings. Most of these students will easily transition into a life of academics and social interactions. For others, insults, aggressions, and lack of inclusion are a reality; and these experiences will shape their interactions and perceptions . . . on the challenges facing the nation and world and considering the role that post-secondary education plays in improving civil discourse nationally and creating safe spaces for dialogue and personal growth. (p. 361) Morris (2016) goes on to argue: First, [we must] identify resources to support conversations around civil discourse, social justice, and inclusion. Could we individually and collectively in every department, college, and administrative unit resolve to make a difference—to role-model and ask our students to be kind, show compassion, be inclusive and fair, and extend a hand of friendship? Maybe our academic words, like social justice, just do not resonate. Perhaps people forget that words have power and can cause long-lasting pain or can provide encouragement. While we may study and advocate for equity, perhaps we should say that this campus and my class will discuss challenging topics; but we will be characterized by the following values: to listen, to reflect, to show compassion, to think critically, and to care about this community of learners. I know: it sounds like Robert Fulghum’s All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten (1988). However, sometimes simple guidelines work best. (p. 361) Use your Critical Thinking text to quickly review the following: Chapter 14, "Develop As an Ethical Reasoner," pages 345–365. If you did not complete the Blooming Park: Ethics, Diversity, and Personnel Selection simulation last week, complete it now to begin work on the interviews relevant to your organization: P–12 education, higher education, business or corporate, or military. This activity will give you the opportunity to grapple with the ethical questions that frequently arise in professional contexts, which will be the focus of your assignment this week. Diversity and Multiculturalism Diversity in all organization settings can take many forms. We may consider differences across many criteria, including the following: Ethnicity. Ethnic identity. Gend.

Assignment 1 Discussion—Community Structures The family is a major .docx

murgatroydcrista

Assignment 1: Discussion—Community Structures The family is a major influence in a child’s life and continues to be so for much of a child’s life. However, as a child grows and has experiences outside of the home, many additional community and cultural influences come into play. Using the module readings, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet, research some community structures and functions and respond to the following: •Choose one structure (such as physical factors, economic factors, and social and personal factors) and one function (such as learning environment and support system). •Explain how your chosen structure and function might impact different cultural groups within a community. Evaluate how this structure and function might vary in degree of influence depending on various factors of the child such as age, gender, income status, etc. Remember that cultural groups consist of many different factors that shape one’s sense of group identity such as race, ethnicity, religion, income status, gender, occupations, and geographical locations. Write your initial response in a minimum of 300–400 words. Apply APA standards to citation of sources, including use of in-text citations and full references. Incorporate information from at least two academic sources to support your statements or ideas. Academic sources could include your textbook, required readings for this week, or academic journal articles found in the Argosy University online library. By Saturday, February 7, 2015, post your response to the appropriate Discussion Area. Through Wednesday, February 11, 2015, review and comment on at least two peers’ responses. Consider commenting on the following: •Do you agree with your peers’ explanation of the impact of their chosen structure and function on cultural groups within a community? Why or why not? •Suggest alternative explanations for your peers’ answers if their choice is different from yours. Give reasons for your recommendations. •Select a structure and function that is different from your earlier choice and explain its impact. .

Prayer In School Essay. St. Olaf College

Angela Jennings

This document discusses the challenges of writing an essay on prayer in schools. It notes that the topic intertwines religion, constitutional rights, and societal values, requiring the writer to balance diverse opinions. The essay must avoid favoring any viewpoint, and instead present a comprehensive overview through rigorous research into the historical, legal, and cultural context. It also requires navigating the constitutional implications of separation of church and state. Finally, the essay demands a nuanced approach through a balanced exploration of perspectives, underpinned by thorough research and impartiality.

Week 9 Assignment Application: Diversity in the Workplace In this week’s Discussion, you thought about democracy in the workplace. For this Assignment, you will consider how democratic principles in the workplace are related to and might be promoted by diversity. Diversity has different meanings; the particular meaning held by an organization may shape that organization in a variety of ways. Most organizations profess to value diversity in the workforce, and employers view the variety of talents and ideas that a diverse labor pool brings to the job as an economic asset. Diversity may, however, produce more than just economic benefits for an organization. One way to better understand diversity is to think about which aspects of diversity are related to democratic principles. Another way to approach diversity is to look at which democratic principles are promoted in your own organization through diversity. As you consider the concept of diversity, take note of underlying aspects that may advance democracy in the workplace. To prepare for this Assignment: Review the article “A Contingency Approach to Representative Bureaucracy: Power, Equal Opportunities and Diversity” in this week’s Learning Resources. Think about the link between diversity and representative bureaucracy in the workplace. Review the article “The Ideal of Diversity in Organizations” in this week’s Learning Resources. Consider strategies for advancing diversity in the workplace. Pay particular attention to matters such as individual difference and equality as they relate to diversity in the workplace. Reflect on basic democratic principles and consider how they are related to diversity. Select at least two democratic principles that you think are promoted by diversity in the workplace and think about how diversity might or does promote them. The Assignment (1–2 pages): Briefly describe the democratic principles that you selected. Explain how diversity relates to and promotes the democratic principles you selected. Based on your analysis, share insights and draw conclusions about how diversity relates to and promotes democratic principles in the workplace. Support your Assignment with specific references to all resources used in its preparation.

Assignment 1 Conformity and Social InfluenceHow do reasonable p.docx

carlibradley31429

Assignment 1: Conformity and Social Influence How do reasonable people go along with unreasonable ideas, including mass suicide? How do charismatic leaders create their own “culture” within a specific situation and setting and then bring followers along? It is unsettling to consider that researchers have found that almost anyone will obey orders if placed in the right situation. For this Assignment, you will explore the role of conformity and social influence in the dynamics of a cult. Keep in mind the definition of “culture” as you examine how a powerful leader can create a distinct culture, or “cult,” that others join and follow: a set of attitudes, behaviors, and symbols shared by a large group of people (Shiraev & Levy, 2017, p. 4) . To prepare: Review the sections in Chapter 10 of your course text, beginning with “Universal Interaction” (p. 301), and pay particular attention to the content on conformity, obedience, leadership, and social power. Your Week 5 Learning Resources provide information on three different cults and their leaders in recent U.S. history: Jim Jones and the People’s Temple, David Koresh and the Branch Davidians, and Marshall Applewhite and Heaven’s Gate. You are encouraged to choose one as the focus of your Assignment. Additional Learning Resources provide insights on the dynamics of a cult. Note: If you prefer to choose a different leader and group, check with your instructor first for approval. For your focus leader, review and analyze the Module 5 Learning Resources provided and additional resources you find in the Walden Library or in other sources, including reputable websites, to complete this Assignment. For your focus leader and group, think about how each may exemplify the concepts of conformity, obedience, and social power: How the leader builds a “culture” with its own rules outside of the larger culture What elements compel followers to conform, such as charisma, isolation, and/or fear Use the Learning Resources provided and those you find to analyze your leader and followers as an example of a situational development of a “culture” through conformity, obedience, and social power. By Day 7 Submit a 2 - to 3-page research paper in which you do the following: Describe the leader and followers who are the subject of your analysis. Analyze how the leader created a distinct “culture” for followers and what elements of a culture were present in the setting. Analyze how the leader used social power to influence followers. Analyze elements that created conformity and obedience among the followers. Explain how your chosen leader’s use of social influence applies to the leaders in your culture (e.g., local, academic, political, or other types of leaders you identify). Note: Support the responses within your Assignment with evidence from the assigned Learning Resources and those you found. Provide a reference list for resources you used for this Assignment.

In this week’s Discussion, you thought about democracy in the workpl.docx

vickeryr87

In this week’s Discussion, you thought about democracy in the workplace. For this Assignment, you will consider how democratic principles in the workplace are related to and might be promoted by diversity. Diversity has different meanings; the particular meaning held by an organization may shape that organization in a variety of ways. Most organizations profess to value diversity in the workforce, and employers view the variety of talents and ideas that a diverse labor pool brings to the job as an economic asset. Diversity may, however, produce more than just economic benefits for an organization. One way to better understand diversity is to think about which aspects of diversity are related to democratic principles. Another way to approach diversity is to look at which democratic principles are promoted in your own organization through diversity. As you consider the concept of diversity, take note of underlying aspects that may advance democracy in the workplace. To prepare for this Assignment: Review the article “A Contingency Approach to Representative Bureaucracy: Power, Equal Opportunities and Diversity” in this week’s Learning Resources. Think about the link between diversity and representative bureaucracy in the workplace. Review the article “The Ideal of Diversity in Organizations” in this week’s Learning Resources. Consider strategies for advancing diversity in the workplace. Pay particular attention to matters such as individual difference and equality as they relate to diversity in the workplace. Reflect on basic democratic principles and consider how they are related to diversity. Select at least two democratic principles that you think are promoted by diversity in the workplace and think about how diversity might or does promote them. The Assignment (1–2 pages): Briefly describe the democratic principles that you selected. Explain how diversity relates to and promotes the democratic principles you selected. Based on your analysis, share insights and draw conclusions about how diversity relates to and promotes democratic principles in the workplace. .
