This document summarizes research examining teachers' beliefs about language teaching methods. The researcher interviewed 30 teachers and analyzed discussion posts and journals to understand how teachers view methods. Key findings include:
1) Most teachers described their approach as "eclectic," drawing from multiple methods depending on context rather than adhering to one strict method.
2) Teachers defined methods pragmatically as goal-oriented and sensitive to student and classroom needs rather than as rigid prescriptions.
3) Teachers disagreed that methods are "dead," seeing value in understanding different methods to best address teaching challenges.

Dr. Gary Jones presented on evidence-based practice in education. He defined evidence-based practice and discussed common misconceptions. He outlined tools like PICO and SPICE for framing questions to guide evidence searches. Jones also covered acquiring, appraising, and aggregating evidence to inform decisions. He argued that evidence-based practice should prioritize ethical leadership, involve multiple stakeholders, and apply principles to all aspects of a school to truly impact outcomes. While challenges exist, reasonably straightforward techniques can help make decisions more evidence-based.

The document discusses best practices for online discussions, focusing on the three C's of community, construction, and coaching. It provides guidance on building community through establishing a welcoming online presence and netiquette. For construction, it offers tips on structuring discussions, such as using small groups, various question formats, and rubrics for assessment. Regarding coaching, it suggests techniques for facilitating higher-order thinking, providing timely feedback, and addressing weak discussions or incorrect information. The overall goal is to foster student engagement, intellectual development, and connections through strategic use of online discussion tools and facilitation techniques.
Narrative Writing for Science Learning
This document describes a study on using narrative writing to teach the process of science. Students in a college science course wrote research narratives about scientists and their work. The study examined students' experiences with this assignment and the role of autonomy, competence and relatedness on engagement and performance. Students found the autonomy and open-ended nature of the assignment beneficial for learning about research processes and connecting with scientists. However, some students found it difficult to write creatively and critically review their own work. While autonomy support had little effect on performance, autonomous self-regulation marginally improved scores. The assignment was effective for science communication and identifying mentors but recommendations were made to improve instructions and feedback.

Area of Focus
The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of a website called starfall.com will increase reading skills and if it will increase a child’s motivation to read. This is important to me because I am always looking for a better way to teach and motivate my children and my students to practice reading and be motivated to improve their reading skills.
Using technology to help students with learning disabilities has also proven to be helpful. “All groups improved their reading skills. The group that received combined training showed greater improvement than the one with ordinary special instruction and the group of typical readers at two follow-ups. The longitudinal results indicate additional positive results for the group that received the combined training, the majority of students from that group being no longer judged to be needing special education 1year after the intervention” (Fälth, L., Gustafson, S., Tjus, T., Heimann, M., & Svensson, I., 2013).

Asking better questions
This document discusses effective questioning techniques for instructors. It presents a taxonomy that categorizes questions as either high or low order and convergent or divergent. High order and divergent questions generally require more critical thinking from students. The document also summarizes several studies that found teachers predominantly ask lower order convergent questions rather than higher order divergent questions. It provides examples of question types and discusses techniques instructors can use to ask more effective questions, such as pausing after asking questions to allow students time to think (known as "wait time"). When wait time is increased in classrooms, positive outcomes are observed for both students and teachers.

This document discusses effective questioning techniques for instructors. It presents a taxonomy that categorizes questions as either high or low order and convergent or divergent. High order questions require deeper thinking while divergent questions have open-ended answers. Research shows that most teacher questions are low-level convergent, focusing on recall. The document outlines techniques for crafting higher-order, divergent questions like wait time and probing responses. When these techniques are used, students provide more thoughtful answers and teachers ask a greater variety of questions.

Asking better questions
This document discusses effective questioning techniques for instructors. It presents a taxonomy for classifying questions into four types based on their cognitive complexity and structure: lower-level convergent, higher-level convergent, lower-level divergent, and higher-level divergent. Lower-level questions emphasize recall and memorization while higher-level questions require more reasoning, analysis, and creative thinking. Convergent questions have defined answers while divergent questions are more open-ended. The taxonomy is intended to help instructors recognize how to structure more complex, thought-provoking questions that enhance student learning beyond simple recall of facts.

The document discusses plagiarism, defining it as using another person's ideas, words, or work without giving proper credit. It notes that plagiarism is considered academically dishonest because scholars are expected to do original work. Several examples of plagiarism are provided relating to using words, ideas, processes, results or intellectual property from others without permission or attribution.
Classroom Research
Classroom-based research can be used to discover students' knowledge, skills, and attitudes as well as the impact of classroom interventions. It benefits teachers by helping them plan and teach effectively while enhancing their research, teaching skills, and understanding of how they impact student learning. The steps of classroom-based research involve developing questions about student learning, collecting and analyzing data through methods like surveys, pre/post-tests, and observations, examining assumptions, discussing findings, and sharing conclusions.
Action Research Group I.pptx
This document defines and describes action research. It states that action research is research conducted by teachers and other stakeholders in an educational setting to systematically study an issue or problem in their own practices or classroom and enact changes to improve student outcomes. The key aspects of action research outlined are that it is conducted by teachers in their own context to identify problems, design and implement interventions, document the results in a cycle of improvement, and potentially disseminate successful interventions. The document also provides more details on the characteristics and process of action research.
Session1
This document provides an overview of the EDCI 620 School Curriculum course, including introductions, journaling, and discussion activities on the first day. It reviews the syllabus, assignments, and policies. Key topics of the course are developing an understanding of curriculum theories, examining the impact of policies on curriculum and instruction, and understanding the history and societal influences on education. The instructional model is a seminar approach with small and large group discussions. Assignments include class participation, online responses, papers, a group presentation, and a final exam assessing comprehension of course content.
Effects of 4 – Modes of Learning Styles on Students’ Learning Outcomes in Pea...
The document investigates the effects of four learning styles (visual, auditory, reading, kinaesthetic) on students' learning outcomes in peace education. It finds that while learning style alone did not significantly affect achievement, attitude, or conflict resolution scores, it did account for 26-43% of variance in outcomes. Specifically, kinaesthetic learners performed best on achievement tests, while auditory learners scored highest on attitude and conflict resolution measures. The study recommends teaching peace education using activities suited to kinaesthetic and auditory learning styles.

This document discusses quantitative and qualitative methods in educational research. It provides examples of quantitative approaches like standardized tests, surveys, and experimental methods. Qualitative approaches include action research, interviews, and documentary evidence. Both approaches are useful but have limitations, so a mixed methods approach is best. Important variables to consider include socioeconomic status, social disadvantage, ethnicity, gender, and school policies. Reliability and validity are also discussed.
III - Class research agenda.pptx
A research agenda is best described as a formal plan of action that summarizes specific issues and ideas in a subset of any field of study. It is a guiding plan that helps to put together a system of study so that you can decide what should be tackled now, and what should be deferred until another time.
Keep in mind that research agendas are adaptable, and you are likely to modify the contents as their priorities shift.

Purpose:
Finding research-based instructional practices that are applicable to your unique classroom situation can inform your practice. In this assignment you will use the ERIC database in the University Library to select an article to analyze. In Unit 3, you will write a lesson plan using what you have learned from this article about your chosen instructional technique.
Directions:
Choose one instructional method that is applicable to your unique classroom situation. This can be based on what you have learned in previous courses or from your own experience. Some suggestions can be found in the Bullmaster literature review in Unit 2.
Go to the University Library to search the ERIC, Academic Search Premier, or Professional Development Collection databases and select one full text article on your chosen instructional method. Examples of possible topics might be discovery learning, scaffolding, nonlinguistic representations, cooperative learning, etc. (This topic can also be used for your Literature Review due in Unit 6. If you find several articles of interest, you might want to save them for your Literature Review.)
Write a 2-3 page paper analyzing and reflecting on the article you read. Use the following headers and discussion questions to frame your research analysis assignment.
Research Problem:
· What are the research questions? What is the hypothesis being tested?
Literature Review/ Theoretical Framework: (This will be a summary of the author’s literature review included in the article. You will not need to create a new literature review.)
· What general field of knowledge does this study investigate? Examples could include: Research on Teacher Effectiveness, Research on Self-Reflective Learning, Research on Gender Differences in Mathematics Performance, etc.
· List three key points from the study’s literature review that help the reader understand what is already known about the subject, and the purpose of this study in light of other studies.
· Cite at least one study used by the author for each of the three points you list.
Research Design:
· Describe the research design (experimental, correlational, descriptive, etc.).
· Describe the method(s) of data collection.
· Describe the method(s) of data analysis.
· Experimental studies seek to prove cause-and-effect relationships. The role of the researcher is to introduce a change (known as a "treatment") into a situation and note the results. Collecting data in experimental studies is accomplished through observation, "counting," and measurement. The data is then analyzed by statistical methods. These studies are sometimes referred to as quantitative studies.
· Correlational studies can be descriptive or experimental, and they seek to prove a relationship between events without any manipulation of those events by the researcher. Data from correlational studies is analyzed by statistical methods.
· Descriptive or qualitative studies report and ana.

Autism is a complicated progressive disability. Researchers think that Autism exhibits itself during the age of 18 to 36 months old. The illness is the effect of a neurological condition that has an influence on natural brain performance, effecting promotion of the individual’s social and communication abilities. A student with an autism disorder will have a problem with non-verbal skills, and difficulty with activities which involve an environment of play and/or joking. They could have uncommon replies to society, connections to items, refusal to accept an adjustment in their daily routines, and severe behavior challenges.
Autism Challenges
I am Interested in understanding Autism behavior challenges to improve classroom management. As a Special Education teacher understanding Autism behaviors can be very beneficial. A projection of 1 in every 68 citizens in the country has various types of autism; boys are more prevalent than girls. Several professionals think that this (ASD) is linked hereditary or through the atmosphere. Studies show in a classroom of 18 or more. Typically, at least two of the classroom children for each one student are diagnosed with (ASD). Children with (ASD) show disruptive behaviors, and many of them have problems like harming self and anger tantrum. Behaviors form anxiety for parents and specialists, because it inconsistent with the development of desired behaviors and communication skills (DSM-5, 2013), and have risks on child himself and others. Findings show after researching over a hundred teachers in a public major school of students who strugglers with ASDs.
Lack of classroom management, and inconsistent strategies played a huge factor in behaviors. An effort to be made by schools to address the teacher’s perception of causes of challenging behavior as it has an influence on their choice of management strategies. Also, the teachers agreed that the behavior was learned,
and could be improved, but they did not often use strategies that are commonly considered to be effective, at least within the fields of ABA and PBS (Baron, Groden, & Lipsitt 2006). Consistency and reinforcement, they are solutions for resolving occurring behaviors, which increase the likelihood that behavior will continue to occur or occur more often (Cooper, Heron, & Heward, 2007).

Delusional Disorders
Pakistani hought Processes
BACKGROUND
The client is a 34-year-old Pakistani female who moved to the United States in her late teens/early 20s. She is currently in an “arranged” marriage (her husband was selected for her since she was 9 years old). She presents to your office today following a 21 day hospitalization for what was diagnosed as “brief psychotic disorder.” She was given this diagnosis as her symptoms have persisted for less than 1 month.
Prior to admission, she was reporting visions of Allah, and over the course of a week, she believed that she was the prophet Mohammad. She believed that she would deliver the world from sin. Her husband became concerned about her behavior to the point that he was afraid of leaving their 4 children with her. One evening, she was “out of control” which resulted in his calling the police and her subsequent admission to an inpatient psych unit.
During today’s assessment, she appears quite calm, and insists that the entire incident was “blown out of proportion.” She denies that she believed herself to be the prophet Mohammad and states that her husband was just out to get her because he never loved her and wanted an “American wife” instead of her. She tells you that she knows this because the television is telling her so.
She currently weighs 140 lbs, and is 5’ 5”
SUBJECTIVE
Client reports that her mood is “good.” She denies auditory/visual hallucinations, but believes that the television does talk to her. She believes that Allah sends her messages through the TV. At times throughout the clinical interview, she becomes hostile towards the PMHNP, but then calms down.
You reviewed her hospital records and find that she has been medically worked up by a physician who reported her to be in overall good health. Lab studies were all within normal limits.
Client admits that she stopped taking her Risperdal about a week after she got out of the hospital because she thinks her husband is going to poison her so that he can marry an American woman.
MENTAL STATUS EXAM
The client is alert, oriented to person, place, time, and event. She is dressed appropriately for the weather and time of year. She demonstrates no noteworthy mannerisms, gestures, or tics. Her speech is slow and at times, interrupted by periods of silence. Self-reported mood is euthymic. Affect constricted. Although the client denies visual or auditory hallucinations, she appears to be “listening” to something. Delusional and paranoid thought processes as described, above. Insight and judgment are impaired. She is currently denying suicidal or homicidal ideation.
The PMHNP administers the PANSS which reveals the following scores:
-40 for the positive symptoms scale
-20 for the negative symptom scale
-60 for general psychopathology scale
Diagnosis: Schizophrenia, paranoid type

The document discusses best practices for online discussions, focusing on the three C's of community, construction, and coaching. It provides guidance on building community through establishing a welcoming online presence and netiquette. For construction, it offers tips on structuring discussions, such as using small groups, various question formats, and rubrics for assessment. Regarding coaching, it suggests techniques for facilitating higher-order thinking, providing timely feedback, and addressing weak discussions or incorrect information. The overall goal is to foster student engagement, intellectual development, and connections through strategic use of online discussion tools and facilitation techniques.
Narrative Writing for Science Learning
This document describes a study on using narrative writing to teach the process of science. Students in a college science course wrote research narratives about scientists and their work. The study examined students' experiences with this assignment and the role of autonomy, competence and relatedness on engagement and performance. Students found the autonomy and open-ended nature of the assignment beneficial for learning about research processes and connecting with scientists. However, some students found it difficult to write creatively and critically review their own work. While autonomy support had little effect on performance, autonomous self-regulation marginally improved scores. The assignment was effective for science communication and identifying mentors but recommendations were made to improve instructions and feedback.

Area of Focus
The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of a website called starfall.com will increase reading skills and if it will increase a child’s motivation to read. This is important to me because I am always looking for a better way to teach and motivate my children and my students to practice reading and be motivated to improve their reading skills.
Using technology to help students with learning disabilities has also proven to be helpful. “All groups improved their reading skills. The group that received combined training showed greater improvement than the one with ordinary special instruction and the group of typical readers at two follow-ups. The longitudinal results indicate additional positive results for the group that received the combined training, the majority of students from that group being no longer judged to be needing special education 1year after the intervention” (Fälth, L., Gustafson, S., Tjus, T., Heimann, M., & Svensson, I., 2013).

Asking better questions
This document discusses effective questioning techniques for instructors. It presents a taxonomy that categorizes questions as either high or low order and convergent or divergent. High order and divergent questions generally require more critical thinking from students. The document also summarizes several studies that found teachers predominantly ask lower order convergent questions rather than higher order divergent questions. It provides examples of question types and discusses techniques instructors can use to ask more effective questions, such as pausing after asking questions to allow students time to think (known as "wait time"). When wait time is increased in classrooms, positive outcomes are observed for both students and teachers.
Asking better questions highlighted ch
This document discusses effective questioning techniques for instructors. It presents a taxonomy that categorizes questions as either high or low order and convergent or divergent. High order questions require deeper thinking while divergent questions have open-ended answers. Research shows that most teacher questions are low-level convergent, focusing on recall. The document outlines techniques for crafting higher-order, divergent questions like wait time and probing responses. When these techniques are used, students provide more thoughtful answers and teachers ask a greater variety of questions.

Asking better questions
This document discusses effective questioning techniques for instructors. It presents a taxonomy for classifying questions into four types based on their cognitive complexity and structure: lower-level convergent, higher-level convergent, lower-level divergent, and higher-level divergent. Lower-level questions emphasize recall and memorization while higher-level questions require more reasoning, analysis, and creative thinking. Convergent questions have defined answers while divergent questions are more open-ended. The taxonomy is intended to help instructors recognize how to structure more complex, thought-provoking questions that enhance student learning beyond simple recall of facts.

The document discusses plagiarism, defining it as using another person's ideas, words, or work without giving proper credit. It notes that plagiarism is considered academically dishonest because scholars are expected to do original work. Several examples of plagiarism are provided relating to using words, ideas, processes, results or intellectual property from others without permission or attribution.
Classroom Research
Classroom-based research can be used to discover students' knowledge, skills, and attitudes as well as the impact of classroom interventions. It benefits teachers by helping them plan and teach effectively while enhancing their research, teaching skills, and understanding of how they impact student learning. The steps of classroom-based research involve developing questions about student learning, collecting and analyzing data through methods like surveys, pre/post-tests, and observations, examining assumptions, discussing findings, and sharing conclusions.
Action Research Group I.pptx
This document defines and describes action research. It states that action research is research conducted by teachers and other stakeholders in an educational setting to systematically study an issue or problem in their own practices or classroom and enact changes to improve student outcomes. The key aspects of action research outlined are that it is conducted by teachers in their own context to identify problems, design and implement interventions, document the results in a cycle of improvement, and potentially disseminate successful interventions. The document also provides more details on the characteristics and process of action research.

Effects of 4 – Modes of Learning Styles on Students’ Learning Outcomes in Pea...
The document investigates the effects of four learning styles (visual, auditory, reading, kinaesthetic) on students' learning outcomes in peace education. It finds that while learning style alone did not significantly affect achievement, attitude, or conflict resolution scores, it did account for 26-43% of variance in outcomes. Specifically, kinaesthetic learners performed best on achievement tests, while auditory learners scored highest on attitude and conflict resolution measures. The study recommends teaching peace education using activities suited to kinaesthetic and auditory learning styles.

This document discusses quantitative and qualitative methods in educational research. It provides examples of quantitative approaches like standardized tests, surveys, and experimental methods. Qualitative approaches include action research, interviews, and documentary evidence. Both approaches are useful but have limitations, so a mixed methods approach is best. Important variables to consider include socioeconomic status, social disadvantage, ethnicity, gender, and school policies. Reliability and validity are also discussed.
III - Class research agenda.pptx
A research agenda is best described as a formal plan of action that summarizes specific issues and ideas in a subset of any field of study. It is a guiding plan that helps to put together a system of study so that you can decide what should be tackled now, and what should be deferred until another time.
Keep in mind that research agendas are adaptable, and you are likely to modify the contents as their priorities shift.

ED523 Research Analysis
Purpose:
Finding research-based instructional practices that are applicable to your unique classroom situation can inform your practice. In this assignment you will use the ERIC database in the University Library to select an article to analyze. In Unit 3, you will write a lesson plan using what you have learned from this article about your chosen instructional technique.
Directions:
Choose one instructional method that is applicable to your unique classroom situation. This can be based on what you have learned in previous courses or from your own experience. Some suggestions can be found in the Bullmaster literature review in Unit 2.
Go to the University Library to search the ERIC, Academic Search Premier, or Professional Development Collection databases and select one full text article on your chosen instructional method. Examples of possible topics might be discovery learning, scaffolding, nonlinguistic representations, cooperative learning, etc. (This topic can also be used for your Literature Review due in Unit 6. If you find several articles of interest, you might want to save them for your Literature Review.)
Write a 2-3 page paper analyzing and reflecting on the article you read. Use the following headers and discussion questions to frame your research analysis assignment.
Research Problem:
· What are the research questions? What is the hypothesis being tested?
Literature Review/ Theoretical Framework: (This will be a summary of the author’s literature review included in the article. You will not need to create a new literature review.)
· What general field of knowledge does this study investigate? Examples could include: Research on Teacher Effectiveness, Research on Self-Reflective Learning, Research on Gender Differences in Mathematics Performance, etc.
· List three key points from the study’s literature review that help the reader understand what is already known about the subject, and the purpose of this study in light of other studies.
· Cite at least one study used by the author for each of the three points you list.
Research Design:
· Describe the research design (experimental, correlational, descriptive, etc.).
· Describe the method(s) of data collection.
· Describe the method(s) of data analysis.
· Experimental studies seek to prove cause-and-effect relationships. The role of the researcher is to introduce a change (known as a "treatment") into a situation and note the results. Collecting data in experimental studies is accomplished through observation, "counting," and measurement. The data is then analyzed by statistical methods. These studies are sometimes referred to as quantitative studies.
· Correlational studies can be descriptive or experimental, and they seek to prove a relationship between events without any manipulation of those events by the researcher. Data from correlational studies is analyzed by statistical methods.
· Descriptive or qualitative studies report and ana.

Autism is a complicated progressive disability. Researchers think that Autism exhibits itself during the age of 18 to 36 months old. The illness is the effect of a neurological condition that has an influence on natural brain performance, effecting promotion of the individual’s social and communication abilities. A student with an autism disorder will have a problem with non-verbal skills, and difficulty with activities which involve an environment of play and/or joking. They could have uncommon replies to society, connections to items, refusal to accept an adjustment in their daily routines, and severe behavior challenges.
Autism Challenges
I am Interested in understanding Autism behavior challenges to improve classroom management. As a Special Education teacher understanding Autism behaviors can be very beneficial. A projection of 1 in every 68 citizens in the country has various types of autism; boys are more prevalent than girls. Several professionals think that this (ASD) is linked hereditary or through the atmosphere. Studies show in a classroom of 18 or more. Typically, at least two of the classroom children for each one student are diagnosed with (ASD). Children with (ASD) show disruptive behaviors, and many of them have problems like harming self and anger tantrum. Behaviors form anxiety for parents and specialists, because it inconsistent with the development of desired behaviors and communication skills (DSM-5, 2013), and have risks on child himself and others. Findings show after researching over a hundred teachers in a public major school of students who strugglers with ASDs.
Lack of classroom management, and inconsistent strategies played a huge factor in behaviors. An effort to be made by schools to address the teacher’s perception of causes of challenging behavior as it has an influence on their choice of management strategies. Also, the teachers agreed that the behavior was learned,
and could be improved, but they did not often use strategies that are commonly considered to be effective, at least within the fields of ABA and PBS (Baron, Groden, & Lipsitt 2006).

Introduction: The
evolution of blockchain
MORE THAN A decade has passed since the introduction of what we know today as blockchain technology. Over that time,
the promise of what the technology could offer
businesses and industries has evolved from a
cryptocurrency payment platform to something
bigger, game-changing, and truly disruptive. In
recent years, we have seen sentiment about
blockchain’s potential similarly evolving, along
with companies directing actual investment
dollars toward applications.
In Deloitte’s 2019 Global Blockchain Survey,
we observed this continuing trend in thinking
and investment, even if some vestiges of doubt
and old-school thinking remained about the
technology’s promise.1 This year’s survey
suggests that those doubts are fading further,
and that blockchain is solidly entrenched in
the strategic thinking of organizations across
industries, sectors, and applications.
There are more substantive examples in
the marketplace of how both startups and
mature businesses are deploying blockchain.
Organizations appear to be more committed than
ever to blockchain and are demonstrating this by
implementing it as part of their normal course
of business.
That’s the key takeaway from our 2020 Global
Blockchain Survey, which finds that leaders no
longer consider the technology groundbreaking
and merely promising—they now see it as integral
to organizational innovation. This year, the C-suite
is putting money and resources behind blockchain
as a strategic solution in more meaningful and
tangible ways—in projects big and not so big—

Deliverable 5 - Hypothesis Tests for Two SamplesCompetencyForm.docx
Deliverable 5 - Hypothesis Tests for Two Samples
Competency
Formulate and evaluate hypothesis tests for population parameters based on sample statistics using both Critical Regions and P-Values, and be able to state results in a non-technical way that can be understood by consumers of the data instead of statisticians.
Dealing with Two Populations
Inferential statistics involves forming conclusions about a population parameter. We do so by constructing confidence intervals and testing claims about a population mean and other statistics. Typically, these methods deal with a sample from one population. We can extend the methods to situations involving two populations (and there are many such applications). This deliverable looks at two scenarios.
Concept being Studied
Your focus is on hypothesis tests and confidence intervals for two populations using two samples, some of which are independent and some of which are dependent. These concepts are an extension of hypothesis testing and confidence intervals which use statistics from one sample to make conclusions about population parameters. What to Submit
Your research, calculations, and analysis should be presented on the spreadsheet
provided.

Deliverable 4 - Global Environment Challenges
Competency
Create solutions for organizational and leadership challenges in a global environment.
Scenario
You are the HR Training and Development Manager at Lots of Stuff International, a global company. The company has offices around the globe, which requires employees to work with peers in multiple countries in cross-functional and cross-global teams. The company has recently conducted an employee engagement survey across all areas of the company. The results indicate a lack of engagement and satisfaction of employees who work in these global-cross functional teams. Upon investigation, you discover that employees indicate dissatisfaction with a lack of community and social interaction in their teams. They indicate this may be a function of culture and religious differences, time zone differences, or work ethic differences. This has led employees to be less invested in working together. The CEO, Ms. Amelia Rienhardt, has tasked you with creating a plan to develop community within these teams across the global workforce, with the end goal of enhancing engagement and satisfaction. This plan will be unveiled to all teams in a company-wide presentation.

Deliverable 03 - Humanities (Test-Out Sophia Replacement)Com.docx
Deliverable 03 - Humanities (Test-Out Sophia Replacement)
Competency
Formulate, express, and support individual perspectives on diverse works and issues.
Instructions
You will act as a critic for some of the main subjects covered in the humanities. You will conduct a series of short, evaluative critiques of film, philosophy, literature, music, and myth. You will respond to five different prompts, and each response should include an analysis of the topics using terminology unique to that subject area and should include an evaluation as to why the topic stands the test of time. The five prompts are as follows:
Choose a film and offer an analysis of why it is an important film, and discuss it in terms of film as art. Your response should be more than a summary of the film.
Imagine you had known Plato and Aristotle and you had a conversation about how we
fall in love
. Provide an overview of how Plato would explain falling in love, and then provide an overview of how Aristotle might explain falling in love.
Compare and contrast the two poems below:
LOVE’S INCONSISTENCY
I find no peace, and all my war is done;
I fear and hope, I burn and freeze likewise
I fly above the wind, yet cannot rise;
And nought I have, yet all the world I seize on;
That looseth, nor locketh, holdeth me in prison, And holds me not, yet can I ’scape no wise;
Nor lets me live, nor die, at my devise,
And yet of death it giveth none occasion.
Without eyes I see, and without tongue I plain;
I wish to perish, yet I ask for health;
I love another, and yet I hate myself;
I feed in sorrow, and laugh in all my pain;
Lo, thus displeaseth me both death and life,
And my delight is causer of my grief.
Petrarch
After great pain a formal feeling comes—
The nerves sit ceremonious like tombs;
The stiff Heart questions—was it He that bore?
And yesterday—or centuries before?
The feet mechanical go round
A wooden way
Of ground or air or ought
Regardless grown,
A quartz contentment like a stone.
This is the hour of lead
Remembered if outlived
As freezing persons recollect
The snow—
First chill, then stupor, then
The letting go
Emily Dickinson
4. Compare and contrast these two pieces of music:
Beethoven’s Violin Romance No. 2
Scott Joplin’s Maple Leaf Rag
5.Explain in classical terms why a modern character is a hero. Choose from either Luke Skywalker, Indiana Jones, Bilbo Baggins, Harry Potter, Katniss Everdeen, or Ender Wiggins.

1. Trustworthiness
Does your audience believe you are a good person who can be trusted to tell the truth?
2. Similarity
Does the writer try to get the reader to identify with him or her? This can be done through language
3. Authority
Does the writer have formal or informal authority? Does the writer try to relate to the reader?
4. Reputation
What are the expertise the writer uses? How many does he use? What are their areas of authority?
Logos: Logical reasoning, which has two bases:
Deductive reasoning, and
Inductive reasoning
Deductive Reasoning
Deductive reasoning generally start with one or more premises, and then comes to a conclusion from them. Premises can be facts, claims, evidence, or a previously proven conclusion. The key is that in a deductive argument, if the writer’s premises are true, then the conclusion must be true.
1. Education determines one’s class base.
2. One’s class base will shape one’s employment.
3. Therefore, education will determine one’s employment.
Inductive Reasoning
Inductive reasoning is similar in that it consists of premises, which lead to a conclusion. The difference is that the conclusion is not guaranteed to be true — we can only state it with some degree of confidence.
For example, consider the following inductive argument:
5. All Six Minutes articles you have read in the past were insightful. (premise)
6. This is a Six Minutes article. (premise)
Therefore, this article is insightful. (conclusion)
How to Identify Logos
Make it Understandable: Does the writer make the argument understandable? What tools does he or she use to do this?
Make it Logical: Does the arguments make sense? Or does the writer require the reader to make an extreme leap of faith? How easy is it for the writer to make a connection to the argument?
Make it Real: Does the writer make the argument real? Is the argument concrete or abstract?
The language plain language: Does the writer use technical jargon or is a portion of language used for a specific reader that isn’t familiar with the reader?
Does the writer use short words and phrases over long and convoluted counterparts?
The language is explicit: Does the writer make his or her argument plain? What techniques does he or she use to establish explicit argument?
The writer uses a couple premises, to establish his or her position? Are they relatable? Do they show relationship between them? “And these five advantages — capital costs, scheduling, inventory control, marketing, and employee satisfaction — together make this a winning proposal.”
Trace sequences or processes in order.
Does the writer jump around to different places or is there an order to his or her steps that create clarity or confusion for the reader?
Use comparisons, analogies, and metaphors.
Does the writer introduce new concepts, with an appropriate analogy which helps the audience understand the new concept in terms of how they already understand the old one?.

Definition Argument Essay AssignmentGoal Write a 1,500.docx
Definition Argument Essay Assignment
Goal
Write a 1,500-1,750-word essay using five to seven academic resources in which you argue that a contested “case” involving the sale, trade, or donation of human organs fits (or does not fit) within a given category. A case may include a specific news article, story, or incident illustrating a dilemma or controversy relating to the exchange of human organs. The case does not need to be a court case.
Directions
Follow these steps when composing your essay:
1. Start by selecting a controversial case found in the media involving the sale, trade, or donation of human organs. For example, an appropriate case might include a story in the news about an organ broker, and the term to define might be “criminal.”
2. Decide what category you think your case belongs in, with the understanding that others may disagree with you about the definition of your category, and/or whether your chosen case matches your category.
3. In the opening of your essay, introduce the case you will examine and pose your definition question. Do not simply summarize here. Instead, introduce the issue and offer context.
4. To support your argument, define the boundaries of your category (criteria) by using a commonly used definition or by developing your own extended definition. Defining your boundaries simply means naming the criteria by which you will discuss your chosen case involving the sale, trade, or donation of human organs. If you determine, for example, that an organ broker is a criminal, what criteria constitute this? A criminal may intentionally harm others, which could be one of your criteria.
5. In the second part of your argument (the match), show how your case meets (or does not meet) your definition criteria. Perhaps by comparing or sizing up your controversial case to other cases can help you to develop your argument.
This essay is NOT simply a persuasive essay on the sale, trade, or donation of human organs. It is an argumentative essay where the writer explains what a term means and uses a specific case to explore the meaning of that term in depth.
First Draft Grading

Sources
· Include in-text citations and a references page in GCU Style for FIVE to SEVEN scholarly sources outside of class texts.
· These sources should be used to support any claims you make and should be present in the text of the essay.
· Use the GCU Library to help you find sources.
· Include this research in the paper i.

Defining Privacy in Employee Health ScreeningCases Ethical .docx
Defining Privacy in Employee Health Screening
Cases: Ethical Ramifications Concerning
the Employee/Employer Relationship
V
Michele Simms
ABSTRACT. Issues of privacy and employee health screen-
ing rank as two of the most important ethical concerns
organizations will face in the next five years. Despite the
increasing numbers of social scientists researching personal
privacy and the current focus on workplace privacy rights as
one of the most dynamic areas of employment law, the
concept of privacy remains relatively ahstract. Understand-
ing how the courts defme privacy and use the expectation of
privacy standards is paramount given the strategic impor-
tance of the law as a legal socializing agent. This article
reports on two federal court decisions involving employer
drug and HIV testing whose determinations relied on
assumptions about the psychological dimensions of privacy.
How the courts define privacy, the outcome of this defini-
tion and the ethical ramifications as it affects the employee/
employer relationship are discussed.
Introduction
Each year American companies require employees to
submit to millions of blood and urine tests, x-rays,
and other medical and laboratory procedures. "In
fact, with the exception of typing and similar skills
tests for office and clerical employees, medical
screening is the most widely used pre-employment
test in all major employment categories" (BNA,
1987). It is predicted that in the next five years
testing will become a standard requirement when
applying for employment and/or health and life
insurance (Rothstein, 1989).
Michele Simms, as an adjunct professor of business communication
and organizational behavior, has taught at the University of
Michigan, Wayne State University and Oakland University
schools of business in Michigan. In addition to teaching, she
consults in the areas of worksite wellness, alternative dispute
resolution, transition management and change.
One factor contributing to the increase in em-
ployee health screening is the development of drug
abuse and AIDS as socially compelling public health
concerns (Falco and Cikins, 1989) that are costly to
employers, thus leading to an increase and/or initia-
tion of drug and HIV testing in both private and
public sector employment. One concern associated
with health screening is the issue of privacy and the
parallel communication activity of self-disclosure
that is used to express and maintain privacy states.
The issues of privacy and testing involve the
fundamental conflict of ethical principles between
individual rights and public safety needs and are the
subject today of increasing legislative and judicial
activity. A peripheral ethical concern that has not
been addressed but of equal importance is whether
the psychological dimensions of privacy are ac-
knowledged in court decisions involving employer
health screening practices. Traditionally lawyers and
judges Htigate and decide cases based upon principles
of legal positivi.
