Reflection Essay 3 : Choose only ONE of the two topics below (doing both will not give you any additional points). Remember that Reflection Essays don't need to be any more than a single page long. And if you can get to the heart of the issue, a paragraph may be enough. Just make sure to address the topic as completely as you can within those constraints. ESSAY A: Describe what “emic” and “etic” mean in terms of cultural interaction. Give an example of yourself as “emic” and of an experience in which you have felt “etic.” OR discuss the four basic instrument categories, and give examples of each one, identifying its subcategory within that larger category, and why it would be classified that way. OR: ESSAY B: Write a brief overview of totemism and animism; make sure to show how they differ and where they overlap. Describe (and provide examples if you can) of how these belief systems consider the reality of an unseen world being tied to the physical and visible world we share as humans. Previous Next .

First writing assignment: Write a narrative summary of your notes describing what you experienced. Then, explain how each of the three sociological perspectives (structural-functionalism, symbolic interactionism, and social conflict) would analyze what you say. Your description of your observation should represent about 50% of your paper and your analysis another 50%, divided evenly between the three perspectives. At the end of your paper, discuss which perspective you think is the best suited to analyze your observation and why you think so. Short definitions: Structural functionalism = stability, survival, efficiency, predictability >> society Conflict = contradictions in society such as we are all equal but society is stratified (not equal) >> stress on members Symbolic interaction = meanings… how do we create meanings so that we can interact Example: Simple observation : I see a homeless man sitting by the side of the road and someone stops and yells get a job. Paradigm (theoretical approaches) Interpretations : Functionalism : Economics is an important part of the society and provides jobs. Part of our non-material (values, ideas, ideology) culture rests on the idea of hard work. This man is failing his responsibility to the society. Conflict : Although we state we are an equal society, not everyone has the same life chances (Weber). Some events may have given this man less opportunity or some structures of society deny him opportunity. We should correct the contradictions and find a way to help this member of the society. However, others may argue that he has plenty of opportunity and is not trying (probably a functionalist). Symbolic Interaction : What symbols and meanings are in play? Why do I think one man is homeless? Dress? Demeanor? What symbols and meanings is the “yelling man” using? What does this tell me about myself and society? SI is about how we interpret our world. Culture (material and non-material) and socialization as well as social control are important contributors when we think, react, and behave. Your observation paper should contain this type of analysis but to a greater degree. .

THE PURPOSE: Knowledge: After completing this assignment, you will understand: 1) The scope and diversity of psychology as a discipline. 2) How psychologists working from different philosophical and theoretical perspectives make different contributions to our understanding of particular psychological topics. Skills: After completing this assignment, you will be able to: 1) Assess the strengths and weaknesses of various explanations for your topic. 2) Explain how the Integration and/or competition between explanations from various perspectives helps psychology advance our understanding of human behavior and mental processing. YOUR TASK: Your task is to select ONE psychological topic you find particularly interesting. This may be a topic we have covered in the course or a psychological topic we have not covered. You will then examine this topic from three different philosophical or theoretical perspectives within psychology. For example, you could examine your topic from any of the following philosophical perspectives: physiological, behavioral, cognitive, social, humanistic, evolutionary, psychoanalytic, etc). Alternatively, you could opt to examine your topic more specifically using three different theories, which may or may not differ in their philosophical perspectives. For example, imagine that you choose “bullying” as your topic. You could examine how bullying is explained from a biological, behavioral, and social perspective (three different philosophical perspectives). Alternatively, you could choose to examine how three different theories attempt to explain bullying. Two of these theories might be theories from a “social” perspective and one might be a theory from a “biological” perspective. In either case, you must utilize and cite original sources for those perspectives in your analysis/discussion. This means that you must research your topic to find three different explanations for your topic. Your analysis cannot be based on personal opinion alone. Write-up: Your write-up should begin with a general overview of your topic and the reasons why it is particularly interesting or relevant to you. This introduction should be followed by an analysis of your topic from three different philosophical or theoretical perspectives. Your analysis should demonstrate a general understanding of your topic and the fundamental principles used by each philosophical or theoretical perspective to explain that topic (using at least three academic sources outside of your textbook as source material). In addition, you should discuss whether the explanations offered by the different perspectives are complimentary to one another or contradict one another. Finally, your analysis should include your own personal reflection of these perspectives and an informed assessment of what you see as the strengths and weaknesses of each based on your research of them. THE CRITERIA: Review the grading criteria for this .

riting About Literature Generally, the essays you write in literature courses attempt to answer interesting questions about works of literature. These questions are interesting for at least two reasons: a) their answers are not obvious, and b) their answers (or at least the attempt to answer them) can enrich other readers’ understanding and experience of those works of literature. Often works of literature seem to be intentionally posing these questions to us; they require us to do some work to get them to work. Readers have asked many different types of questions of works of literature, for example: What did the author want to communicate in this work? What does the work reveal about the author’s feelings, opinions, or psychology? What does the work reveal about the society in which it was written? What can we learn from this work about the issues or topics it deals with? What motivates the characters in the work to behave as they do? How are literary devices used in the work? How does the work create emotional or intellectual experiences for its readers? Is this work good or bad? Is this work good or bad for its readers? Some of these questions require information from outside the text itself; for example, to argue that a work reveals a writer’s psychological condition, it would be helpful to have some other evidence of that condition to corroborate your interpretation of the work of literature. Some of these questions ask about the world outside the work—about the author, his/her society, or our own society, for example—while others try to focus more on the features of the work itself. Analyses which try to make statements about the work itself is often called formalist criticism: it attends more to the structures and strategies employed in the work. Ultimately, such arguments generally do try to move beyond the work, to claim, for instance, that it is likely to create certain effects in its readers, or that readers will understand the writer’s intent more clearly if they pay attention to its formal characteristic. In LIT 100, we are going to be paying attention primarily to these formal features of literary works. In fiction, some of these features include tone, point of view, setting, character, etc. We will be paying less attention to extra-textual features, such as the author’s biography or the historical contexts in which the literature was produced and/or read; these elements are not less important than formal features, but they naturally vary greatly from one work to another and often require in-depth study to truly appreciate. To understand how Shakespeare’s social situation in London in the 1590s might have been reflected in his plays would require a whole course in Elizabethan history. On the other hand, the formal features we will be studying in this course can be found in literature of all eras and genres, though they may often be used to different effect by different writers at different times. Almost all fict.

The text discusses “Theoretical Perspectives in Sociology” in Chapter 2. As a student, you sociologically view the world in a particular way. Do you see the world as a place where things simply “work out” (structural functionalism), or is it constantly in conflict (conflict theory)? Perhaps you see the world primarily as a place that is about relationships between people (symbolic interactionism). Write an essay (750-1,000 words) that addresses the following: Define and explain the three ways to view the world “sociologically.” Identify which sociological perspective (structural functionalism, conflict theory, symbolic interactionism) most closely represents your view of the world. Describe the factors that have caused you to view the world through that perspective, such as personal experience in our society, popular culture, media, etc. In addition, use an example from world events that demonstrates evidence of your theory. Briefly explain why you did not choose each of the other two perspectives being careful to demonstrate that you understand the other perspectives. .

Unit Two Workshop and Essay Intro to Philosophy Instructions In the second unit in this class, we have focused on two things; we’ve looked at various texts in which the authors argue for a specific view on the mind-body problem and we have attempted to identify and report arguments. This assignment will bring these together. You are asked to consider the following question: how is the mind related to the body or brain? Ok, now that you’ve sorted that out, consider the passages below the instructions, from several of our our authors, namely, Descartes, Papineau, or Jackson. For this essay, you must consider one of these authors. Re-read the passage I have provided, in which he or she answers one of the above two questions. You might find that the author really answers both questions at the same time, or not. Having re-read the passage, you must next try to find not only the author's answer(s) to the above question(s), but the reasons offered in support of his view. What you must write in your Blue Book: Now - and only now! — is it time to write. Here is what your paper must contain: 1. First, identify which author you’ll be considering. 2. You must next state, clearly, simply, and accurately, what your chosen author would say in response to the above questions. This should not be more than a single paragraph — get to the point! This might even be called your thesis or controlling idea. It’s the idea you’ll be exploring in the rest of the paper. 3. Next provide the reasons why the author believes what you have just claimed he does. Consider no more than one reason per paragraph. So, if you find three reasons, then write at least three paragraphs for this part. 4. In each paragraph, explain each reason simply, clearly, and accurately. Then elaborate a bit on what that means and try to show why or how it supports the main claim, How does this reason help him or her? 5. You must also provide evidence! That is, you must provide textual evidence supporting your claim that the authors in question really has this reason you’re discussing. The best and easiest way to do this is to quote, briefly and accurately, the sentence in which the author actually says the reason, from the passage I provided. Then restate it in your own words, explaining the passage as I described in number 4, just above. Remember, though, the evidence does not speak for itself. You must interpret and explain it. But you also must remain true to the text you’re discussing and the textual evidence will make that happen. 6. Ideally, the reasons you present will indeed be relevant to the main claim you presented (i.e., the answer you claim your author would give to the question(s) above). Don’t provide reasons that are irrelevant or even contrary to the main claim! You are trying to support it, remember. Also note that all of this is reporting what the author said, not what you think. 7. Finally, evaluate what you have just said. The author said it, but is it right? Do ...

Essays Questions: 1. There are several consequences of relativism that we find unacceptable: lack of justification for criticism of other cultures, lack of justification for civil disobedience or moral law, and absence of justification for moral reformation. Explain why, as a result of accepting relativism, we are no longer able to offer justification for any of these practices. What do you think about these consequences— that is, are they severe enough that we should dismiss relativism as an untenable theory? 2. Explain the differences between subjectivism, ethical relativism, and emotivism by way of an example. That is, think of an example of a moral evaluation of an action, and provide an analysis of how each theory would explain the function, or meaning, of the moral evaluation. Then, choose a single theory, and explain one objection to that theory in your own words. 3. Give a detailed account of the differences between the varieties of objectivism we studied: divine command theory, natural law theory, and moderate objectivism. Specifically, explain how each theory would treat the moral principle: do not murder. What is the status of the moral principle, and how is it justified? Which of the three objectivist theories do you find most compelling, and why? 4. Natural law theory has several complexities that we discussed in class: teleological view of nature and man, the emphasis on rationality, and necessitation of free will. Explain in detail these elements of natural law theory, and how they come together to provide us with an objective morality. Provide an example of a moral standard that would be accepted by this theory, and how it would be justified. The Essay answer must be only 1 page no more and no citation needed. Example of how to apply the answers. Ex. Essay 4: Introduction. (what natural theory are) what and how you explained to me. Description of natural law theory. (Booth Introduction & Description.

End of Term Paper: The paper requires you to reflect on a problem and to explain how some contrasting philosophical positions relate to it. The paper also requires you to take a critical stance. A paper assignment will be posted on Canvas well before the paper's due date. This paper is of moderate length (1,800 - 2,000 words). (Choose one of the prompts below.) Prompt 1: The problem: The relationship between the mind and the body The opposing philosophical positions: Cartesian Dualism and Physicalism (Use both Ryle and Putnam) - You will 1) Summarize both positions, 2) Explain the arguments for and against each opposing position (why does their position do a better job explaining the mind. You may use Nagel’s arguments in this part), 3) Offer your own assessment of the dialectic using your own examples and reasoning; which side you think offers a more plausible model of the mind and why? Prompt 2: The problem: What makes our actions moral? The opposing philosophical positions: Utilitarianism (use Bentham) and Kantianism. - You will 1) Summarize both positions, 2) explain how and when each position differs from one another with respect to their judgments of the moral worth of actions. Describe examples where they come to different conclusions. 3) Offer your own assessment of the dialectic by discussing which theory offers more or less plausible grounds for justifying our actions. You may end up siding with one over the other, agreeing with both, or disagreeing with both. Make sure to focus on the reasons why you came to this conclusion. Prompt 3: The problem: What aspects of our identity are fundamental to understanding what makes us a rational person? The (potentially) opposing philosophical positions: The Kantian account of personhood and the situated personhood of social epistemology. - You will 1) Summarize Kant’s account of what it is to be a person. Then, explain the importance of aspects of our situated identity in Mills’ and Fricker’s accounts of ignorance and responsibly listening to testimony. Offer your own assessment of each point of view and argue whether, with respect to understanding what we need to do in order to be rationality, these points of view are more likely to be incompatible or compatible. Make sure to focus on the reasons why you came to this conclusion .

Required elements Description of the disorder Priority Nursing Diagnosis and why Nursing Assessment / Clinical Manifestations Nursing Plan/ Goals/ Outcomes Nursing Interventions Nursing Evaluations Patient and Family teaching Conclusion/ Summary Cites four (4) APA format references (at least 5 years old) TOTAL Scene 1 A is on his phone, looking at Twitter and Instagram B is A’s friend and recently doing social media addiction research. B comes inside this room B: Hey A, how’s your day! A: Great, Look I just found another interesting app called Instagram! B: Not again! You’re always on your phone! A: I just downloaded it 3 days ago, it’s fun, you should try it. B: Did you know (switch to data information) that 60% of adolescent’s sleeping patterns are affected by the use of their phones an hour before bed. This can lead to sleep deprivation. The use of social media keeps our brain highly active and therefore it takes longer to get into a deep sleep, which means we don’t get enough sleep for our brains to properly function. Sleep deprivation is one of the key factors to developing depression and can lead to an overall in the quality of an someone’s life. A: So, if I stop playing on my phone before I sleep then I will be fine? Are there any other negative effects of using social media? (switch to data information) B: There are so many more negative effects that social media has on us. Adults spend around 32% of their total work time on social media, and this causes a major reduction in the overall productivity, studies show that it reduces by 13%. A decline in productivity rates can directly affect the profitability of an organisation. Heavy use of social media can also have a negative impact on an individual’s mental health. Heavy users of social media have a 13%-66% higher chance of developing depression. This is a due to low self-esteem and isolation from heavy use of social media, as you are constantly looking and comparing your life to everyone else’s. It also leads to less physical activity and less opportunity to develop real authentic relationships. Do you find that you prefer to communicate with people over social media instead of face to face? A: Yes I do! B: The other one of the major risks of using social media is exposure to online abuse from “bullies” or “trolls”. Around one in 13 people in Australian have experienced some kind of online abuse, such as threats of death, rape, sexual assault, and stalking. Race-based abusive language is also common. A portion of these people who were exposed to online abuse had to seek help from a doctor or psychologist which negatively impacts work productivity. As a result, the loss of productivity has estimated to cost the Aust.

Reflection Assignment This week there will be no formal discussion for our class. However, there is a reading assignment. Based on the reading assignment there is a reflection requirement. This is basically a written paragraph of about five to six sentences about what you have read. Your reflection should be posted on the discussion board (remember it is just a paragraph of five to six sentences) regarding your readings for this week. No discussions are required this week. Reading Assignment Our reading assignment for our class this week will involve: Chapter 16 – Internet, Secondary Analysis and Historical Research Chapter 17 - Intervention Your class participation is the basis for grading of this requirement. Please note that I am actively going through everyone’s phrase three written assignments. Thank you for your continued diligence in our course. Under chapter 16 this week, we will explore topics such as incorporating the internet for your research, revisiting participant testing as well as interviewing. Ethical concerns, historical research, and its appraisal. In review of chapter 17, intervention in research will be explained. As per our text, not all research involves an intervention. Frequently, interventions are seen within improvement projects frequently completed in DNP programs. At this phase of research, the principle investigator interacts with their research team. Documentation stems from the methodology section. Investigating the internet in research, please know and understand the following. Internet-based research method refers to any research method that uses the Internet to collect data. Most commonly, the Web has been used as the means for conducting the study, but e-mail has been used as well. The use of e-mail to collect data dates back to the 1980s while the first uses of the Web to collect data started in the mid-1990s. Whereas e-mail is principally limited to survey and questionnaire methodology, the Web, with its ability to use media, has the ability to execute full experiments and implement a wide variety of research methods. The use of the Internet offers new opportunities for access to participants allowing for larger and more diverse samples. Reference Salkind, N. J. (2010). Encyclopedia of research design (Vols. 1-0). Thousand Oaks, CA: SAGE Publications, Inc. doi: 10.4135/9781412961288 Secondary analysis is the re-analysis of either qualitative or quantitative data already collected in a previous study, by a different researcher normally wishing to address a new research question.

Reflection assignments 1. Action-observation-reflection model: Leadership development is enhanced when people do something (act), note what happened (observe), and think about what occurred (reflect). 2. Leadership and Maxims: You will write down the leadership maxims (three to five that are of most interest to you) of a personal or famous leader. In what situations do they work or not work, how would you go about testing the maxims. 3. Upon completing your personality profile, describe the results of each section or facet of the profile, discuss if you believe the profile fits your self-perception or image and share the profile with a good friend or family member and record their reactions concerning how well they believe the profile fits you. 4. Chapter 8 discussed several skills identified important to good leaders. These skills were: (a) Building Credibility, (b) Communication, (c) Listening, (d) Assertiveness, (e) Conducting Meetings, (f) Effective Stress Management, (g) Problem solving, and (h) Improving creativity. Although you might not engage in all of these activities at work or in school, choose four of the eight skills that you believe are most important, and discuss how you personally improve these skills for effective leadership development. 5. Stages: There are four well-known stages all groups move through prior to becoming cohesive, they are: (a) Forming, (b) Storming, (c) Norming, and (d) Performing first developed by Bruce Tuckman in 1965.

Reflection assignments are essays, based on the assigned chapters noted in the syllabus. Type your reflection using correct grammar, spelling, writing mechanics and articulation. Each reflection assignment should be a minimum of 2 pages (it can be longer), double-spaced with one inch margins and size 12 font. Upload your reflection into D2L. Follow these directions: Identify one passage from the assigned book (introduction through chapter 4), The Collapse of American Criminal Justice, that you find interesting, thought-provoking, controversial or one with which you agree or disagree. Begin your reflection assignment by reprinting the quoted passage and also provide the page #. Then reflect on the passage, explaining why you chose it, what you think about it, why it is or is not important, and/or how the passage relates to other theories, ideas, concepts, history, or findings from the lectures, reading and/or from other credible sources. In addition to the book, cite other sources as you analyze each passage in order to support your opinions, reasoning and observations. Use APA Edition 6 for all sources. A rubric will be used to grade your reflections; if instructor feedback seems auto-generated, that’s because it is. The best two or three reflection assignments will be posted so that great work can be recognized and other students have examples on how to improve. To be considered for this honor, permission must be granted in the form of a quiz to be completed in the week 1 module. EXAMPLE “Violence was not controlled chiefly through criminal punishment… it was controlled through local democracy in the network of relationships that supported it… criminal punishment was embedded in that network of relationships. Police officer sometimes lived in the neighborhood they patrolled, and had political ties to those neighborhoods through the ward bosses who represented their cities’ political machines. Those patrols happened on foot: officers, those whom they targeted, and those whom they served knew one another. Cops, crime victims, criminals, and the jurors who judged them-these were not wholly district communities; they overlapped, and the overlaps could be large.” (Stuntz, 2011, p. 31). I specifically chose this passage for two reasons. First, it addresses current issues that are relevant today; racial profiling, stereotyping, and the large incarcerated population of minorities. Second, it presents an upstream solution, which I will define and discuss further along in the reflection, to the large incarcerated population of minority that I personally quite agree with. “Crime victims in black neighborhoods have difficulty convincing local police to take their victimization seriously… Cab drivers are slow to pick up” African Americans, and “pedestrians… hold their possession more tightly when they approach young black males” (Stuntz, 2011, p.22). All these scenarios demonstrate what is formally known as stereotyping. It’s wrong, but.

Reflection as an Educational Strategy in Nursing Professional Development An Integrative Review Robbin Miraglia, MSN, RN ƒ Marilyn E. Asselin, PhD, RN-BC Reflection is a critical component of professional nursing practice and a strategy for learning through practice. This integrative review synthesizes the literature addressing the use of reflection as an educational strategy and reports outcomes from the use of reflective strategies. Reflection education is primarily nested in programs to meet specific clinical goals, structured with group facilitation. Findings suggest that reflective strategies stimulate learning in practice, enhance readiness to apply new knowledge, and promote practice change. INTRODUCTION In recent years, reflection has gained increased recognition as a critical component of professional nursing practice and as an educational strategy to acquire knowledge and learn through practice (Asselin & Fain, 2013; Kim, 1999; Perry, 2000). Although there is no agreed upon definition, reflection is generally understood as the deliberate process of critically thinking about a clinical experience, which leads to development of insights for potential practice change (Asselin & Fain, 2013). Scholars contend that reflection offers nurses the opportunity to build on existing knowledge through clinical experiences (Johns, 1995; Kuiper & Pesut, 2004; Perry, 2000), develop clinical judgment (Nielsen, Stragnell, & Jester, 2007; Tanner, 2006), promote strong communication skills, build collaborative practice, and improve patient care (Horton-Deutsch, 2012; Peden-McAlpine, Tomlinson, Forneris, Genck, & Meiers, 2005). Although it is generally assumed that nurses know how to reflect, findings from recent studies suggest that nurses’ reflective thinking may be prolonged by pauses and they may need assistance in systematically moving insights to practice change (Asselin & Fain, 2013; Asselin, Schwartz- Barcott, & Osterman, 2013). Consequently, continuing education on reflection and reflective practice is viewed as a vehicle to enhance professional practice, promote evidence- based practice, and potentially improve patient outcomes. As an educational strategy, reflection allows nurses to explore clinical experiences and the thoughts and feelings associated with the experience, allowing for a change in beliefs and assumptions, emergence of new knowledge, and a transformation of clinical practice (Asselin & Fain, 2013; Dube & Ducharme, 2014; Horton-Deutsch, 2012; Johns, 1995; Perry, 2000). Although numerous articles have been published exploring the concept of reflection and the use of reflection as an educational strategy, there has been no attempt to synthesize existing literature presenting the use of reflection as an educational strategy in nursing professional development (NPD). This article provides an integrative review of the literature addressing the use of reflection as an educational strategy for nurses. The rev.

[Your initial post should be at least 450+ words and in APA format (including Times New Roman with font size 12 and double spaced). Post the actual body of your paper in the discussion thread then attach a Word version of the paper for APA review] Activity 3 Case Study 5.2: California’s High-Speed Rail Project A goal of the Obama administration has been to promote high-speed rail across the most populous and geographically-dispersed states in the United States. The idea is to adopt more energy-saving initiatives while also helping to improve state’s infrastructure. It is with this in mind that the Federal Government made billions available to various states in the 2008–2010 budget cycles. After the Fall, 2010 elections, several states that had elected Republican governors refused the grants, suspicious that this seed money would not be sufficient to pay for what they viewed as unnecessary construction based on over-optimistic expectations of the need for and use of high-speed rail. One of the states that accepted the money and has moved forward strongly into high-speed rail has been California, which has already begun work on a 65-mile section in the middle of the state, earning the derisive nickname, the “train to nowhere.” This case details the state’s projections regarding the need for high-speed rail, against the views of infrastructure experts and critics who charge that for a state that is already in a severe budget crisis, this is just the sort of project that makes no sense economically or demographically. Questions Assess the benefits and drawbacks of the high-speed rail project. In your opinion, do benefits outweigh drawbacks, or vice versa? Why? Justify your answer. What are the implications of starting a project based on tenuous projections that may or may not come true 10 years from now? Could you justify the California high-speed rail project from the perspective of a massive public works initiative? In other words, what other factors enter into the decision of whether to pursue a high-speed rail project? Why are they important? Case Study 6.1: Columbus Instruments This case is based on a true story of a once-successful organization that had allowed its project management practices to degenerate to the point where assignment to a project team was often a mark of disfavor and a sign of pending termination. The case.

Also read "Confronting a Bias" that is attached to this assignment. (Don't forget to cite and source!) 1. How do you see yourself in relation to the information presented in your textbook about racism and prejudice? (remember that we all have some prejudices and that the purpose here is to help you explore within yourself so you can increase your own self-awareness) 2. What did you read in the microaggressions chart in Ch. 6 that resonated within you? This is likely to be among the things you read that you had the strongest reactions to. Be SPECIFIC in your responses. Describing generally what you didn't like or don't ascribe to is too general. 3. What are your thoughts and reactions to the reading "Confronting a Bias?" Use the information about oppression and microaggressions thatyou have read, and analyze the situation described in the reading. Confronting a Bias: Personal Example of Communicating an Observed Bias Initially upon reading the text about racism and prejudice, I was able to identify times when I was on the receiving end. A recent encounter at the Michael Kors store came to mind as it resonated within me for some time. Just for background purposes, when you enter the Michael Kors store you are greeted by the salesperson and they will let you know of any specials they have. On this particular day I entered right behind a daughter, her mother, and grandchild in a stroller, which were white. As soon as they got in the middle store area the sales person greeted them and told them about the sale they were having. I was within a couple feet of them and received no greeting or sales pitch. Often I believe that in order to be sure it is not just me that I need to observe. In my observation, there was an Asian female that entered the store and she also did not receive a greeting or sales pitch. At this point, I am feeling offended an aggravated and felt that this behavior needed to be pointed out. So I politely explained to the manager that because of my current class at school I am being more observant with regards to interactions and treatment. Furthermore, “I observed the discriminative behaviors of your worker and it should be addressed.” Initially the manager was contributing the busyness of the store to the worker being distracted. However I was able to show the manager that as another white female walked in the worker was always readily available but I still had not received a greeting. At this point, I was thinking of the Pretty Woman scene when she was able to come back and let the sales person know that their prejudgment of her had cost them big on commission and sales. Unfortunately, I was unable to spend big and the commission would not have resulted too much. I definite.
