The document discusses early American history through analyzing primary source documents and key events. It describes how early colonies emphasized both unity and exclusion. The Quakers faced tension for constantly preaching their beliefs in Pennsylvania. The southern colonies differed from the north as migrants were wealthy with large estates, and slavery became common.

KIMBERLY’S POST:
In this course I have learned that history provides us with a crystal-clear picture of how various aspects of society, including technology, governmental systems, and even society as a whole, functioned in the past, enabling us to comprehend how it came to function in the manner that it does today. History enables us to observe and comprehend how societies and individuals behaved. For instance, even when a nation is at peace, we can evaluate war by looking back on previous events. The information that is used to make laws or theories about various aspects of society can be found in history. What I’ve learned in this history class can assist us in becoming more educated citizens. It reveals who we are as a group and being aware of this is essential to preserving a democratic society. Through educated debates and the refinement of people's fundamental beliefs, this information enables individuals to take an active role in the political arena. People can even alter their previous beliefs with the knowledge of history.
During this course, I have gained a sense of identity from our history. In fact, one of the main reasons why history is still taught in schools all over the world is because of this. Historians have gained insight into the origins of nations, families, and groups, as well as their evolution and development over time. An individual can comprehend how their family interacted with larger historical change when they take it upon themselves to delve deeply into their own family's history.

Essay Elaborations on the concept of identitity from Huntington's -Who are we
1) The formation of American national identity was shaped by early British Protestant settlers who established core values like the English language, Protestant Christianity, and principles of self-governance. This identity was reinforced by race-based exclusion and expansion westward over centuries.
2) In the late 20th century, increased globalization, immigration from Asia and Latin America, and civil rights movements weakened the previously dominant conception of American identity. A divide emerged between more nationalist populations and increasingly cosmopolitan elites.
3) The 9/11 terrorist attacks marked a turning point, strengthening American nationalism and religious aspects of identity while increasing barriers against some immigration and multiculturalism. Similar impacts were expected in European national identities.

The document summarizes the origins and development of slavery in colonial America in three key points:
1) Slavery developed gradually over decades as a solution to the labor needs of the emerging plantation system and a stable workforce. Early Africans were treated as indentured servants but their status became formalized as slaves over time.
2) The declining supply of indentured servants from Europe and the difficulty of exploiting American Indians for labor led colonists to import slaves from Africa to fill the need. Africans were seen as the most cost effective source of stable, long-term labor.
3) Theories of the "contact situation" and group competition help explain why Africans specifically were targeted for slavery. Their
Social Sciences
1. Religion and profit were major forces driving European colonization of America. Religion provided moral justification for conquest while profit was the primary economic motive.
2. The Europeans had technological and biological advantages over native populations that helped them take control, such as more advanced weapons, organized governments, and diseases that decimated indigenous groups.
3. Religion was used as both a weapon of conquest and a tool for cultural assimilation. Churches were established to assert authority and impose European beliefs, using fear and campaigns to eradicate native religions and traditions.

CONNECTING WITH MILLENNIALS
(information found in Making Space for Millennials by Barna Group, 2015, p. 7.
“Five major reasons that millennials stay connected with a Christian community:
1. Cultural discernment – engaging with the wider culture as a faith community, to assess and respond biblically to its effects on human flourishing.
2. Life-shaping relationships – consistent long-term friendship with at least one older Christian adult who invests time and resources into their lives.
3. A first-hand experience of Jesus – the confidence, through seasons of doubt and pain, that comes from having personally experienced God’s revelation in Christ.
4. Reverse mentoring – being valued for the knowledge, skills, and energy they can offer to older members of the community of faith.
5. Vocational discipleship – whole –life spiritual formation that includes understanding their work as a God-given calling.

New Movements in America
The Second Great Awakening sparked new religious and social reform movements in the 1820s-1830s. Religious leader Charles Finney challenged traditional beliefs and advocated for individual responsibility and salvation through good deeds. Transcendentalists like Emerson and Thoreau promoted living simply and relying on personal judgment. Romantic artists glorified American landscape and individualism. Growing cities attracted millions of European immigrants, causing native-born Nativists to fear job losses. Women and reformers worked to improve prison conditions, temperance, education, and end slavery through abolition and the Underground Railroad.
LatinAmericanCOT
From 1750 to the present, Latin America experienced both political changes and continuities. The region broke free from colonial rule in the early 1800s through independence revolutions, but instability and foreign influence remained as new authoritarian leaders came to power. Over time, liberal and conservative ideologies emerged seeking to reform government and society, yet democratic traditions were weak after centuries of monarchy, and instability persisted.

16I have acquired a lot of knowledge about the histo.docx

I have acquired a lot of knowledge about the history of the United States in this semester. However, there are three most interesting facts that I’ve learned from the history of the country. The firsts interesting knowledge is that South and North America was occupied by Indians before Europeans arrived. When the Europeans arrived to the United States, it was not a wilderness. There are communities which inhabited the land and called it their home. While the Europeans found a new world the natives considered it an ancient homeland (Foner, 2013). I learnt this information from the course textbook as well as from other external sources related to the coursework.
South and North America was inhabited by Indians and contained irrigation systems, roads, cities as well as large structures like the pyramid temples which until today inspire wonder by their beauty. Tenochtitlan, the capital City of Aztec Empire with a population of approximately 250,000 people was considered to be one of the largest cities in the world in that period. The Aztec empire is what toy is referred to as Mexico. In the far south, was the Inca kingdom what is referred to as Peru in the modern society. The kingdom’s dense population was characterized by complex road and bridge systems.
In North America, Indian civilization had not developed the centralized, scale or grandeur of the Inca and Aztec societies in the south. However, the Indians in the North America lacked the technology that the Europeans had such as gun power, machines and metal tools as well as the scientific knowledge that helped them to navigate in the sea. They were also illiterate although some could make maps. This led to their conquest by the Europeans. Nevertheless, the Indian societies had acquired techniques of fishing, farming and hunting, established structures of religious beliefs and political power and engaged in extensive communication and trade networks.
This information is shocking because I thought that North and South America were inhabited by white people before the European arrived. It is also interesting how the Indian societies had mastered various skills even without literacy. This information is very important to my understanding of the history of America since it helps understand were we have come from and appreciate the efforts put in by our fore fathers to realize the kind of life we live today. It also helps me to relate the history of America with the culture and the lifestyle we embrace today.
Some other interesting information I learnt in this course is that there existed social classes in the colonial period. I learnt this information from the course textbook as well as from other external sources related to the coursework. As the colonial society evolved, a group of elites emerged which dominated the society and politics. The expansion of trade led to the emergence of upper class merchants who were closely associated with London firms or families. By eighteenth centu.
1.Discussion postFor the AlbionsSeed, you will find a chapter.docx
1.
Discussion post:
For the AlbionsSeed, you will find a chapter of David Hackett Fisher's landmark study of colonial America, Albion's Seed. Fisher . . . "traces the migration of cultures from four distinct regions of the British Isles and explains how each imparted its own distinctive character to the portion of America they made their own."
The AlbionsSeed excerpt focuses on the ways that these four different waves have influenced America's multi-varied cultural concept of "liberty," certainly a necessary path of inquiry to anyone interested in American culture then and now.
Discussion Board Post:
Looking at the different explanations of the idea of "liberty," which one do you think was most important to early European settlers of the colonies? Explain why.
Which category do you think is closest to your own idea of liberty? Do you think that your definition of the word is one still commonly held in our culture? Describe how it is differs from Fisher's categories.
250 words.
2. (make sure write where is this quote from into beginning of explanation) (you can find a quote from reading in first assignment).
Students will choose a short excerpt / quote from one of the readings of that week, type it in, then add a short (150 words or so) explanation for your choice. Was your selection important because it:
1. is an example of beautiful or striking language?
1. exemplifies a particular theme or character?
1. makes the reader think about something in a new way?
1. reflects a particular aspect of French culture?
1. was just something that you liked?
For example:
"Whoever gets knowledge from God, science,
and a talent for speech, eloquence,
Shouldn't shut up or hide away;
No, that person should gladly display." Marie de France
explanation:
In the opening lines to the Prologue to the Lays, Marie de France is providing her readers with an explanation for writing these stories down. This is a very common and traditional rhetorical move informing readers about the ethos or qualifications of the speaker. In this case, Marie is claiming that she is knowledgeable and eloquent and that these gifts come from God and therefore should be used. I think it goes further than that; Marie, like most women of her day,* would have been expected to "shut up" and "hide away" as a matter of course, since women's voices were not welcomed in the public sphere. By opening her work in this way, she preempts criticism about the appropriateness of her authorship.

Question Although the thirteen American colonies were.docx
Question
"Although the thirteen American colonies were founded at different times by people with
different motives and with different forms of colonial charters and political organization, by the
time of the American Revolution the thirteen colonies had become remarkably similar."
In your essay evaluate the accuracy of this statement. Were the colonies really "remarkably
similar" by the time of the Revolution?
Evaluating the Essays
When reading the essays consider the following questions:
Does the introduction provide a general, overall response to the question? Is there a
thesis?
Do the body paragraphs have clear topic sentences which indicate the main point which is
being argued in each paragraph? Remember, the topic sentence should be what you're
trying to prove in the paragraph -- it shouldn't be a statement of fact. A fact is used as
evidence, it's not something you're trying to prove.
Are paragraphs in the body logically organized to address specific issues relating to the
argument? Or are they a jumble of ideas and facts that don't necessarily relate to
answering the question? If they are relevant to answering the question, is this connection
made clearly? Remember, you can't just throw out ideas and facts, even though they may
be good individual points. They need to be organized to support your argument -- you
need to show how these ideas and facts relate to proving your argument and answering
the question.
Are the arguments in the body paragraphs effectively supported by specific historical
evidence? Does this evidence support the main argument presented in the topic sentence?
Is the evidence correct? Relevant to the point?
Does the conclusion summarize the overall response to the question? Show what has
been proven in the body of the essay?
Does the essay actually answer the question?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sample Response #1: Poor
The 13th colonies were founded because people didn't want to be in Europe anymore. Because of this
many people came to the colonies seeking other things. They were looking for money and so they could
practice any religion they wanted. The good thing about the colonies was that people were able to be
free! This provided the foundations for the nation we know today.
The first settlers were the Pilgrims. They came to Plymouth Rock because they had been chased out of
England. The English hated them because they were Protestants and the English were Catholics. The
Pilgrims quickly began to make money by growing tobacco using slaves. So, they were much happier in
America, because they could money, unlike in England. Of course, the slaves weren't very happy because
they were treated very poorly and often killed for no reason. This is why we see all of the colonies
suffering from slave rebellions which almost succeeded ...

Divorce, Gay men, Lesbian Women, Single people, interracial marriage, adolescent grown men, same sex marriage were just a few of the topics that have dominated the public discourse.

1. IntroductionWritten and Narrated by Professor Deni ElliottThe.docx
1. Introduction
Written and Narrated by Professor Deni Elliott
There are so many considerations in making ethical decisions, but what consideration is most important? Different cultures and ethical systems have produced theories that favor one consideration over others. The consideration that a theory favors is called a Fundamental Moral Unit, or FMU.
Many of the classical Western philosophers from the Greek and roman traditions favor the individual as the Fundamental Moral Unit. In these theories, the primary dictate is a negative statement: Don’t get in an individual’s way in his or her pursuit of the good life.
Feminist theories tend to determine the best choice based on how well those choices strengthen the connections among people and how well the needs of the most vulnerable are addressed. The fundamental moral unit here is relationship between people and is based on the belief that care should be given to those who can’t take care of themselves.
Some Eastern theories promote the overall good of the community first and foremost. And some indigenous theories stress human’s connection with the world as a whole, with all natural systems and species having an equal right to co-exist. People who grow up in these traditions expect that they and others will sacrifice individual self-interest for the good of the group and the environment. The Fundamental Moral Unit here is called "aggregate good."
Let’s consider a decision you might encounter if you were a member of your local city council. There is a 50 acre parcel of land in your city’s jurisdiction that was designated a hundred years ago to remain open space. Now the area contains some ancient Native burial grounds, but the tribe members a hundred years and tribe members today are happy with the designated use as long as the woodlands around the burial mounds stay intact. A developer would like to build a shopping mall there. As a city council member, you get to decide how that land will be used today: should it remain a park or become a shopping mall?
If you make your choice based only on the good that comes to individuals, you might be tempted to go with the shopping mall. The mall will provide jobs for many of the people in the community who are out of work and the additional income from the taxes from the new property owner and the businesses will allow the city to reduce taxes for individual home owners.
Which choice best advances the overall good of the community in which I live? The policy choice made previously to protect the land respected human connections to natural systems and was sensitive to the culture and history of a minority group. Affirming that decision helps all people in the community maintain trust in government.
We can see how the teachings from all of these traditions can help us in analyzing an important choice. And they can help us answer one more question: Can I find a choice that doesn’t cause harm to anyone or anything? If a shopping mall is a good idea for the .
1. IntroductionThe objective of this video is to introduce studen.docx
1. Introduction:
The objective of this video is to introduce students to the fundamental attribution error and its implications. One implication is that we often have a tendency to judge others unfairly because we do not take into account the situational factors that may have caused them to make unethical decisions. We jump to the conclusion that they are bad people because they did a bad thing. That said, it is important to remember that situational factors are usually explanations for while people err, they are not excuses. The best way to avoid this error, experts say, it to put ourselves in the shoes of others and try to envision the pressures they might have faced.
The other implication of the fundamental attribution error is that we may be too easy on ourselves, if we are not careful. We may too readily find situational factors, organizational pressures and the like and then simply excuse our own conduct.
The fundamental attribution error is the tendency to attribute "causes of behavior to actors (i.e., internal, dispositional factors) rather than the situation (i.e., external, environmental factors." We see that other people have done bad things, and we assume that it is because of their character rather than the fact that they were, perhaps, striving so hard to please their superiors that they did not even notice the ethical issue that they flubbed.
According to some psychologists, the other side of the coin from the fundamental attribution error is the actor-observer bias which is people’s tendency to over-emphasize the role of the situation in their own behaviors. They insist there’s nothing wrong with their character, because their errors are accounted for by some situational factor—the boss’s pressure, the need to feed their families, etc.
Francesca Gino writes: "In particular, one mistake we systematically make is known as the correspondence bias. When making attributions as we evaluate others, we tend to ascribe too little influence to the situation and too much to their dispositions. In simpler terms, we tend to believe that people’s behavior reflects their unique dispositions and skills, when many times it actually reflects aspects of the situation in which they find themselves." This sounds a lot like a different name for the fundamental attribution error.

The document summarizes the origins and development of slavery in colonial America in three key points:
1) Slavery developed gradually over decades as a solution to the labor needs of the emerging plantation system and a stable workforce. Early Africans were treated as indentured servants but their status became formalized as slaves over time.
2) The declining supply of indentured servants from Europe and the difficulty of exploiting American Indians for labor led colonists to import slaves from Africa to fill the need. Africans were seen as the most cost effective source of stable, long-term labor.
3) Theories of the "contact situation" and group competition help explain why Africans specifically were targeted for slavery. Their
Social Sciences
1. Religion and profit were major forces driving European colonization of America. Religion provided moral justification for conquest while profit was the primary economic motive.
2. The Europeans had technological and biological advantages over native populations that helped them take control, such as more advanced weapons, organized governments, and diseases that decimated indigenous groups.
3. Religion was used as both a weapon of conquest and a tool for cultural assimilation. Churches were established to assert authority and impose European beliefs, using fear and campaigns to eradicate native religions and traditions.

CONNECTING WITH MILLENNIALS
(information found in Making Space for Millennials by Barna Group, 2015, p. 7.
“Five major reasons that millennials stay connected with a Christian community:
1. Cultural discernment – engaging with the wider culture as a faith community, to assess and respond biblically to its effects on human flourishing.
2. Life-shaping relationships – consistent long-term friendship with at least one older Christian adult who invests time and resources into their lives.
3. A first-hand experience of Jesus – the confidence, through seasons of doubt and pain, that comes from having personally experienced God’s revelation in Christ.
4. Reverse mentoring – being valued for the knowledge, skills, and energy they can offer to older members of the community of faith.
5. Vocational discipleship – whole –life spiritual formation that includes understanding their work as a God-given calling.

New Movements in America
The Second Great Awakening sparked new religious and social reform movements in the 1820s-1830s. Religious leader Charles Finney challenged traditional beliefs and advocated for individual responsibility and salvation through good deeds. Transcendentalists like Emerson and Thoreau promoted living simply and relying on personal judgment. Romantic artists glorified American landscape and individualism. Growing cities attracted millions of European immigrants, causing native-born Nativists to fear job losses. Women and reformers worked to improve prison conditions, temperance, education, and end slavery through abolition and the Underground Railroad.
LatinAmericanCOT
From 1750 to the present, Latin America experienced both political changes and continuities. The region broke free from colonial rule in the early 1800s through independence revolutions, but instability and foreign influence remained as new authoritarian leaders came to power. Over time, liberal and conservative ideologies emerged seeking to reform government and society, yet democratic traditions were weak after centuries of monarchy, and instability persisted.

16I have acquired a lot of knowledge about the histo.docx

I have acquired a lot of knowledge about the history of the United States in this semester. However, there are three most interesting facts that I’ve learned from the history of the country. The firsts interesting knowledge is that South and North America was occupied by Indians before Europeans arrived. When the Europeans arrived to the United States, it was not a wilderness. There are communities which inhabited the land and called it their home. While the Europeans found a new world the natives considered it an ancient homeland (Foner, 2013). I learnt this information from the course textbook as well as from other external sources related to the coursework.
South and North America was inhabited by Indians and contained irrigation systems, roads, cities as well as large structures like the pyramid temples which until today inspire wonder by their beauty. Tenochtitlan, the capital City of Aztec Empire with a population of approximately 250,000 people was considered to be one of the largest cities in the world in that period. The Aztec empire is what toy is referred to as Mexico. In the far south, was the Inca kingdom what is referred to as Peru in the modern society. The kingdom’s dense population was characterized by complex road and bridge systems.
In North America, Indian civilization had not developed the centralized, scale or grandeur of the Inca and Aztec societies in the south. However, the Indians in the North America lacked the technology that the Europeans had such as gun power, machines and metal tools as well as the scientific knowledge that helped them to navigate in the sea. They were also illiterate although some could make maps. This led to their conquest by the Europeans. Nevertheless, the Indian societies had acquired techniques of fishing, farming and hunting, established structures of religious beliefs and political power and engaged in extensive communication and trade networks.
This information is shocking because I thought that North and South America were inhabited by white people before the European arrived. It is also interesting how the Indian societies had mastered various skills even without literacy. This information is very important to my understanding of the history of America since it helps understand were we have come from and appreciate the efforts put in by our fore fathers to realize the kind of life we live today. It also helps me to relate the history of America with the culture and the lifestyle we embrace today.
Some other interesting information I learnt in this course is that there existed social classes in the colonial period. I learnt this information from the course textbook as well as from other external sources related to the coursework. As the colonial society evolved, a group of elites emerged which dominated the society and politics. The expansion of trade led to the emergence of upper class merchants who were closely associated with London firms or families. By eighteenth centu.
1.Discussion postFor the AlbionsSeed, you will find a chapter.docx
1.
Discussion post:
For the AlbionsSeed, you will find a chapter of David Hackett Fisher's landmark study of colonial America, Albion's Seed. Fisher . . . "traces the migration of cultures from four distinct regions of the British Isles and explains how each imparted its own distinctive character to the portion of America they made their own."
The AlbionsSeed excerpt focuses on the ways that these four different waves have influenced America's multi-varied cultural concept of "liberty," certainly a necessary path of inquiry to anyone interested in American culture then and now.
Discussion Board Post:
Looking at the different explanations of the idea of "liberty," which one do you think was most important to early European settlers of the colonies? Explain why.
Which category do you think is closest to your own idea of liberty? Do you think that your definition of the word is one still commonly held in our culture? Describe how it is differs from Fisher's categories.
250 words.
2. (make sure write where is this quote from into beginning of explanation) (you can find a quote from reading in first assignment).
Students will choose a short excerpt / quote from one of the readings of that week, type it in, then add a short (150 words or so) explanation for your choice. Was your selection important because it:
1. is an example of beautiful or striking language?
1. exemplifies a particular theme or character?
1. makes the reader think about something in a new way?
1. reflects a particular aspect of French culture?
1. was just something that you liked?
For example:
"Whoever gets knowledge from God, science,
and a talent for speech, eloquence,
Shouldn't shut up or hide away;
No, that person should gladly display." Marie de France
explanation:
In the opening lines to the Prologue to the Lays, Marie de France is providing her readers with an explanation for writing these stories down. This is a very common and traditional rhetorical move informing readers about the ethos or qualifications of the speaker. In this case, Marie is claiming that she is knowledgeable and eloquent and that these gifts come from God and therefore should be used. I think it goes further than that; Marie, like most women of her day,* would have been expected to "shut up" and "hide away" as a matter of course, since women's voices were not welcomed in the public sphere. By opening her work in this way, she preempts criticism about the appropriateness of her authorship.

Question Although the thirteen American colonies were.docx
Question
"Although the thirteen American colonies were founded at different times by people with
different motives and with different forms of colonial charters and political organization, by the
time of the American Revolution the thirteen colonies had become remarkably similar."
In your essay evaluate the accuracy of this statement. Were the colonies really "remarkably
similar" by the time of the Revolution?
Evaluating the Essays
When reading the essays consider the following questions:
Does the introduction provide a general, overall response to the question? Is there a
thesis?
Do the body paragraphs have clear topic sentences which indicate the main point which is
being argued in each paragraph? Remember, the topic sentence should be what you're
trying to prove in the paragraph -- it shouldn't be a statement of fact. A fact is used as
evidence, it's not something you're trying to prove.
Are paragraphs in the body logically organized to address specific issues relating to the
argument? Or are they a jumble of ideas and facts that don't necessarily relate to
answering the question? If they are relevant to answering the question, is this connection
made clearly? Remember, you can't just throw out ideas and facts, even though they may
be good individual points. They need to be organized to support your argument -- you
need to show how these ideas and facts relate to proving your argument and answering
the question.
Are the arguments in the body paragraphs effectively supported by specific historical
evidence? Does this evidence support the main argument presented in the topic sentence?
Is the evidence correct? Relevant to the point?
Does the conclusion summarize the overall response to the question? Show what has
been proven in the body of the essay?
Does the essay actually answer the question?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sample Response #1: Poor
The 13th colonies were founded because people didn't want to be in Europe anymore. Because of this
many people came to the colonies seeking other things. They were looking for money and so they could
practice any religion they wanted. The good thing about the colonies was that people were able to be
free! This provided the foundations for the nation we know today.
The first settlers were the Pilgrims. They came to Plymouth Rock because they had been chased out of
England. The English hated them because they were Protestants and the English were Catholics. The
Pilgrims quickly began to make money by growing tobacco using slaves. So, they were much happier in
America, because they could money, unlike in England. Of course, the slaves weren't very happy because
they were treated very poorly and often killed for no reason. This is why we see all of the colonies
suffering from slave rebellions which almost succeeded ...

In 1960 America was introduced to the pill. This was a form of contraception that provided opportunities for American women, in particular, a level of sexual freedom that had previously been denied to them. As the decade and century progressed, various forms of sexual identity and expression emerged in American society. Divorce, Gay men, Lesbian Women, Single people, interracial marriage, adolescent grown men, same sex marriage were just a few of the topics that have dominated the public discourse. Such openness and frankness about sexuality has been the source of contention for some Americans who feel such issues should be kept behind closed doors.

American Race Relations have long been etched in the fabric of our nation. From the days that the first Americans landed on the nations shores in the 17th century to the present 21stcentury.

1. IntroductionWritten and Narrated by Professor Deni ElliottThe.docx
1. Introduction
Written and Narrated by Professor Deni Elliott
There are so many considerations in making ethical decisions, but what consideration is most important? Different cultures and ethical systems have produced theories that favor one consideration over others. The consideration that a theory favors is called a Fundamental Moral Unit, or FMU.
Many of the classical Western philosophers from the Greek and roman traditions favor the individual as the Fundamental Moral Unit. In these theories, the primary dictate is a negative statement: Don’t get in an individual’s way in his or her pursuit of the good life.
Feminist theories tend to determine the best choice based on how well those choices strengthen the connections among people and how well the needs of the most vulnerable are addressed. The fundamental moral unit here is relationship between people and is based on the belief that care should be given to those who can’t take care of themselves.
Some Eastern theories promote the overall good of the community first and foremost. And some indigenous theories stress human’s connection with the world as a whole, with all natural systems and species having an equal right to co-exist. People who grow up in these traditions expect that they and others will sacrifice individual self-interest for the good of the group and the environment. The Fundamental Moral Unit here is called "aggregate good."
Let’s consider a decision you might encounter if you were a member of your local city council. There is a 50 acre parcel of land in your city’s jurisdiction that was designated a hundred years ago to remain open space. Now the area contains some ancient Native burial grounds, but the tribe members a hundred years and tribe members today are happy with the designated use as long as the woodlands around the burial mounds stay intact. A developer would like to build a shopping mall there. As a city council member, you get to decide how that land will be used today: should it remain a park or become a shopping mall?
If you make your choice based only on the good that comes to individuals, you might be tempted to go with the shopping mall. The mall will provide jobs for many of the people in the community who are out of work and the additional income from the taxes from the new property owner and the businesses will allow the city to reduce taxes for individual home owners.
Which choice best advances the overall good of the community in which I live? The policy choice made previously to protect the land respected human connections to natural systems and was sensitive to the culture and history of a minority group. Affirming that decision helps all people in the community maintain trust in government.
We can see how the teachings from all of these traditions can help us in analyzing an important choice. And they can help us answer one more question: Can I find a choice that doesn’t cause harm to anyone or anything? If a shopping mall is a good idea for the .
1. IntroductionThe objective of this video is to introduce studen.docx
1. Introduction:
The objective of this video is to introduce students to the fundamental attribution error and its implications. One implication is that we often have a tendency to judge others unfairly because we do not take into account the situational factors that may have caused them to make unethical decisions. We jump to the conclusion that they are bad people because they did a bad thing. That said, it is important to remember that situational factors are usually explanations for while people err, they are not excuses. The best way to avoid this error, experts say, it to put ourselves in the shoes of others and try to envision the pressures they might have faced.
The other implication of the fundamental attribution error is that we may be too easy on ourselves, if we are not careful. We may too readily find situational factors, organizational pressures and the like and then simply excuse our own conduct.
The fundamental attribution error is the tendency to attribute "causes of behavior to actors (i.e., internal, dispositional factors) rather than the situation (i.e., external, environmental factors." We see that other people have done bad things, and we assume that it is because of their character rather than the fact that they were, perhaps, striving so hard to please their superiors that they did not even notice the ethical issue that they flubbed.
According to some psychologists, the other side of the coin from the fundamental attribution error is the actor-observer bias which is people’s tendency to over-emphasize the role of the situation in their own behaviors. They insist there’s nothing wrong with their character, because their errors are accounted for by some situational factor—the boss’s pressure, the need to feed their families, etc.
Francesca Gino writes: "In particular, one mistake we systematically make is known as the correspondence bias. When making attributions as we evaluate others, we tend to ascribe too little influence to the situation and too much to their dispositions. In simpler terms, we tend to believe that people’s behavior reflects their unique dispositions and skills, when many times it actually reflects aspects of the situation in which they find themselves." This sounds a lot like a different name for the fundamental attribution error.
