Behaviors That Still Challenge Children and Adults
Developing Young Children’s
Self-Regulation through
Everyday Experiences
®
1, 2, 3
As university faculty, I
often collaborate with teachers
when young children experi-
ence learning or behavior chal-
lenges. Every child is different.
Some have difficulty express-
ing their ideas verbally. Some
struggle to get along with peers
or follow classroom routines. In
each case, however, one thing
is the same: improved learning
and behavior requires strong
self-regulation skills.
According to Ellen Galinsky,
president and co-founder of the
Families and Work Institute and
author of Mind in the Making,
regulating one’s thinking, emo-
tions, and behavior is critical
for success in school, work, and life (2010). A child who
stops playing and begins cleaning up when asked or spon-
taneously shares a toy with a classmate, has regulated
thoughts, emotions, and behavior (Bronson 2000).
From infancy, humans automatically look in the direction
of a new or loud sound. Many other regulatory functions
become automatic, but only after a period of intentional
use. On the other hand, intentional practice is required
to learn how to regulate and coordinate the balance and
motor movements needed to ride a bike. Typically, once
one learns, the skill becomes automatic.
The process of moving from
intentional to automatic regula-
tion is called internalization. Some
regulated functions, such as
greeting others appropriately
or following a sequence
to solve a math problem,
always require intentional
effort. It is not surprising
then that research has found
that young children who engage
in intentional self-regulation learn
more and go further in their educa-
tion (Blair & Diamond 2008).
Children develop foundational
skills for self-regulation in the
first five years of life (Blair 2002;
Galinsky 2010), which means
early childhood teachers play an
important role in helping young children regulate thinking
and behavior. Fortunately, teaching self-regulation does
not require a separate curriculum. The most powerful way
teachers can help children learn self-regulation is by mod-
eling and scaffolding it during ordinary activities. In this
article I define self-regulation and discuss how it develops.
I then describe an interaction I observed in a kindergarten
classroom and explain how the teacher used an everyday
experience to strengthen children’s self-regulation.
What is self-regulation?
Self-regulation refers to several complicated processes that
allow children to appropriately respond to their environment
(Bronson 2000). In many ways, human self-regulation is
like a thermostat. A thermostat senses and measures tem-
perature, and compares its reading to a preset threshold
(Derryberry & Reed 1996). When the reading passes the
threshold, the thermostat turns either a heating or cooling
system on or off. Similarly, c.
Children develop key social-emotional skills from a very young age.
- Infants begin forming attachments through interactions which are important for brain development.
- Toddlers start expressing a range of emotions like fear, anger, pride and begin learning to regulate emotions with language. They also show early signs of empathy.
In a Contemporary Topics in Child Development course, I learned major developmental milestones in middle childhood and how current events impact developmental stages. Attached is a paper I wrote on how the pandemic impacted development of middle aged children. With this research, I now have insight on context is an important concept to consider when assessing child development. This will help me to take into account multiple life aspects when assessing a plan to best suit a future patient.
The document provides an overview of early childhood education including the roles and needs of young children, appropriate practices, and components of quality childcare programs. It discusses developmental indicators and milestones from infancy through preschool age. Strengths and weaknesses are identified through observations of infant/toddler and preschool classrooms as well as family childcare centers. Requirements for staffing ratios are also outlined.
The document discusses different learning styles and elements that affect how students learn. It defines learning styles as how students concentrate, process, internalize, and remember new information. Learning styles involve physiological, cognitive, and affective elements. Physiological elements include environmental factors like sound, light, temperature, and classroom design. Emotional elements involve motivation, persistence, responsibility, and preference for structure. Sociological elements consider whether students learn best alone, in pairs, teams, or varied groups. Cognitive elements include brain dominance, conceptual tempo, mindstyles, psychological differentiation, modality, and multiple intelligences.
Middle childhood, between ages 6-12, involves significant physical, cognitive, and socio-emotional development. Physically, children experience steady growth in height and weight and motor skills improve. Cognitively, they progress from concrete to more abstract thought. Socio-emotionally, peer relationships become important as children's self-concept and understanding of themselves and others develops. The support of family and teachers is important during this stage of learning and social development.

Emotional Development and Moral Development
This week we will explore the functions of emotions, the development of emotional expression and emotional understanding, the role of temperament, and the development and significance of attachment. Additionally, we will study moral development. Topics involving moral development will include the study of morality as the adoption of societal norms, morality as social understanding, moral reasoning of young children, the development of self-control, and the development of aggression.
Topics to be covered include:
Stages of Emotional Development
Moral Development
Emotional Development
Emotion is defined as a rapid appraisal of the personal significance of a situation that prepares us for action. When you experience something that is personally relevant, there is physiological response in your body that causes a behavioral response. If you get into an argument, someone you love smiles at you, or you accomplish a challenging task, you feel a surge of emotion. Your behavioral responses to your emotions is part of what makes you unique!
EMOTIONS DEFINED
Theorists with a functionalist approach to emotion believe that emotions play an integral role in cognitive processing, social behavior, and physical health. They believe that the purpose of emotions is to motivate behavior aimed at accomplishing personal goals. If you have a goal in mind, the anticipation of the outcome, as well as the outcome itself, triggers emotions that help dictate your response. As an individual interacts with his or her environment and situations change, emotions change.
We see how cognition and emotions work together when we consider the impact of anxiety on performance. When anxiety levels rise, thinking skills are often impacted, as attention given to mental processing is now occupied with thoughts of worry. In addition, children who become distressed tend to better recall that particular experience, showing emotion is linked to memory. We also previously learned that two childhood growth disorders, nonorganic failure to thrive and psychosocial dwarfism, result from emotional deprivation.

The document discusses how children of different ages cope with stress. For infants, coping is dominated by behavioral rather than cognitive responses due to their limited executive functioning. Caregiver sensitivity and secure attachment are essential for healthy development and better coping. As children age into toddlerhood and preschool, their ability to regulate emotions and use problem-focused coping strategies develops slowly. During middle childhood, children can verbalize feelings and seek social support outside the family, with girls doing so more than boys. In adolescence, peers and siblings become important sources of support while parents still influence coping strategies. The family environment plays a key role in children's coping abilities at all stages.

Optimizing Brain Development
The first few years of a child’s life are critical for healthy brain development. Brain development begins during the prenatal period and continues through early childhood. Although the brain continues to develop into adulthood, the first eight years builds the foundation for learning and success (CDC, 2021). Brain development depends on many factors such as, prenatal care, experiences, and exposures to toxins and infections. “Nurturing and responsive care for the child’s body and mind is the key to supporting healthy brain development” (CDC, 2021). Positive and negative experiences help shape a child’s brain.
How the brain grows is highly affected by the child’/ s experiences with people and the world. Children depend on interactions with parents and their caregivers to be responsive to their needs. Children thrive in environments where they can explore and play in a safe environment. Their needs ought to be met and not neglected. They do not need to be exposed to stress. As a parent and/or caregiver to support healthy brain development you can constantly talk to the child, read to your child, meet their needs, and offer them a safe place to explore and play. Speaking and reading to children increase their language and communication skills. “Nurturing a child by understanding their needs and responding sensitively helps to protect children’s brains from stress” (CDC, 2021). Exposure to stress can negatively affect brain development. When children are at risk, it can cause them a delay in accomplishing developmental milestones. They will distrust people if their needs are not constantly being met.
This topic is important to me because in the school that I work at we have a high population of students who needs are not being met. When they get into the classroom, before I can teach them anything I have to meet their needs whether it be feeding them or giving them extra attention. I have even gone as far to buy clothes and shoes for students. This affected the students’ learning. They were usually the ones that were below grade level in the classroom. When having conversations with the parents, they want better for their children but did have the resources or just did not know.
I will need support from pediatricians, early childhood educators, and counselors to help inform parents and caregivers about the importance of brain development and optimizing brain development.

Children with internalizing disorders like anxiety and withdrawal tend to not be disruptive in the classroom. They have problems with excessive internal control and may be rigid. Learned helplessness, where children believe nothing they do can change bad outcomes, can result in poor performance after failure due to low self-esteem. Emotional and behavioral disorders impact all aspects of information processing for children from memory to decision making. Effective interventions include positive behavior support, social skills training, self-monitoring strategies, and behavior contracts directed by students. Schools should provide universal, targeted, and intensive supports through the RTI model.
Learning can occur through various processes like classical conditioning, operant conditioning, and observation. Classical conditioning involves forming associations between an unconditioned stimulus that triggers a natural response and a neutral stimulus. Operant conditioning occurs when behaviors are reinforced or punished, influencing whether they are repeated. Observational learning takes place by watching others and the consequences of their behaviors. Learning is affected by intellectual, physical, mental, emotional, social, and environmental factors. It can range from perceptual thinking to more advanced reflective and creative thinking.
1) The document discusses using Transactional Analysis (TA) to improve student behavior by helping teachers better understand students' perspectives and reactions.
2) TA views a person's behavior as influenced by their past experiences and interactions, represented as different "ego states" (parent, adult, child).
3) The document argues conventional behavior management approaches sometimes fall short and TA can provide new insights by analyzing communications between teachers and students. Case studies are presented to show how TA has helped address challenging student behaviors.

This document discusses cognitive, emotional, and social development from childhood through adulthood based on theories from Freud, Erickson, and Piaget. It describes key stages of development including trust vs mistrust in infancy, autonomy vs shame and doubt in toddlers, initiative vs guilt in preschoolers, industry vs inferiority in school-aged children, identity vs role confusion in adolescence, intimacy vs isolation in young adults, and integrity vs despair in late adulthood. It also outlines Piaget's stages of cognitive development from sensorimotor to concrete to formal operational thought. Dental considerations are discussed for each developmental period.

This document discusses common causes of behavioral problems in young children and effective ways to deal with them. Environmental causes include overstimulation, disruptions to routine, noise, and long waiting times. Personal experiences that can cause problems are frustration, physical issues, stress, and family stressors. Prolonged stress can negatively impact brain development. The document outlines specific behavioral issues like negativism, stealing, anger, biting, tattling, body exploration, thumbsucking, and fears. It provides guidance on how to address each problem, emphasizing understanding the child's perspective, preventing misbehavior, and helping the child develop coping skills.
What Happens if We Replace School Detention With School Meditation?Meditation Fix
This document discusses replacing school detention with meditation. It argues that detention is not an effective punishment and can make misbehavior worse. Meditation, on the other hand, has many benefits for students like reduced stress, anxiety, and improved focus and self-control. The document describes studies that found meditation reduced bullying, cruelty, and non-compliance in students. It discusses one school that replaced detention with a meditation room and saw positive results like fewer suspensions. In conclusion, the document argues meditation is a better approach than detention because it teaches self-control rather than just punishment.
1) Parents play a crucial role in a child's development across several domains, including cognitive, socio-cultural, physical, mental, and spiritual development. Through positive parenting techniques like interaction, stimulation, and modeling healthy behaviors, parents can help children develop skills and traits.
2) Parents influence children from an early age by how they resolve conflicts, choose friends, exercise, eat healthy foods, understand discipline, and develop a sense of spirituality. Positive parenting aims to instill values like teamwork and goal-setting in children.
3) While therapy can help with child development, parents don't need to feel helpless - they can actively participate in treatment at home through play-and-learn activities that guide children

Social Understanding, Peers, Media, and Schooling
This week addresses the development of social cognition, or how children come to understand their multifaceted social world. We will also learn about the importance of peer relations, television, computers, and schooling in child development.
Topics to be covered include:
Stages in Social Understanding.
Impact of Peer Relations, Media, and Schooling in Child Development
Development of Self-Awareness and Self-Concept
How do children come to understand their multidimensional social world? How do they think about and interpret their experiences with others? These questions address the concept of social cognition, thinking about characteristics of the self and other people. The first step in this development is self-awareness.
You may wonder when babies begin to recognize the concept of self. The development of self-awareness occurs in stages, with the first stage commencing at birth.
As language takes more of a role in the toddler’s interactions, self-awareness increases, as the toddler is now able to express the self in a more defined manner. Between 18 and 30 months, children begin to classify themselves and others on the basis of perceptually distinct attributes and behaviors, such as age, gender, size, and temperament. This is known as the categorical self. The remembered self encompasses a bigger picture as children rely on autobiographical memories to view themselves as continuously existing individuals. This type of awareness grows out of conversations and interactions with adults who can elaborate on past experiences. Finally, the concept of the enduring self is developed as preschoolers begin to discuss future events and begin to view themselves as persisting over time.

NEWBORNS
INFANTS
TODDLERS
You may recall that newborns have the capacity for intermodal perception, or making sense of light, sound, tactile, odor, and taste information. As babies touch their toes, watch their arms move, and hear themselves cry, they begin to differentiate their own bodies from their surroundings. After feeling a particular object with their hands, they are able to visually distinguish it from other objects.
Theory of Mind Development
You may recall that, as children think about themselves and others, they form a naïve theory of mind, which is a coherent understanding of their own and others’ vivid mental lives. In other words, they are aware that people have personal thoughts. This contributes to their ability to consider the perspective of others, as they understand that someone else may not be thinking the same thoughts as them.
By the time children have reached the age of three, children begin to realize the connections among perceiving, feeling, and desiring.
Factors influencing theory of mind include language and verbal reasoning, executive function, parent-child conversations about mental states, make-believe play, and social interaction wit ...

This document discusses strategies for keeping children focused during classroom learning. It notes that some children have difficulties maintaining focus due to underdeveloped executive function skills. One strategy discussed is using cues like hand clapping or bells to get children's attention before giving instructions. Other strategies mentioned include minimizing noise and distractions by having students sit toward the front of the classroom. The document also discusses research showing that instructions to "stay on task" can improve preschoolers' attention and performance, especially when distractions are present. Overall, the strategies aim to strengthen children's developmental and cognitive skills to improve their focus, attention, comprehension and engagement during learning activities.
Socio emotional development of infants and toddlers예뻐 반
This document discusses socio-emotional development in young children. It refers to a child's ability to form relationships, regulate emotions, and learn about their environment in a culturally appropriate context. The first three years of life are particularly important for development as attachments form and temperament emerges. Key aspects of socio-emotional development include attachment to caregivers, temperament, and the development of moral understanding. Attachment provides emotional security for infants through responsive caregiving. A child's temperament, or inborn personality traits, also influence their socio-emotional development. Around ages 2 to 3, children begin to self-evaluate and develop a sense of right and wrong.
The document provides an overview of a lecture on holistic social and emotional development in early childhood education. It discusses key topics like developmental domains, theories of social-emotional development including attachment theory and social learning theory, the importance of play, and factors that influence child development. The lecture emphasizes taking a whole child approach and recognizing how development across different domains overlaps and influences each other. It stresses the importance of secure attachments and supportive environments for positive social-emotional development in young children.
1) Developmental milestones proposed by Arnold Gesell occur in predictable sequences, allowing developmental issues to be identified and addressed. However, a child's development can vary across physical, cognitive, and social/emotional domains and is influenced by many environmental factors.
2) A child's environment must meet their basic needs for development to progress. Trauma can delay or arrest development as needs take time to feel securely met.
3) Positive attachment enables exploration and cognitive growth, while insufficient attachment focuses development on survival and can disrupt the brain. Trauma affects cognitive and learning milestones, which vary individually rather than by age.
The document discusses the behaviorist perspective in psychology. Some key points include:
- Behaviorism focuses on observable behaviors and rejects studying internal mental states.
- Behaviorists like B.F. Skinner used concepts like operant conditioning to shape animal and human behavior through reinforcement and punishment.
- Operant conditioning uses rewards and punishments to increase or decrease certain behaviors. Classical conditioning also influences learned behaviors and responses.
- Behaviorism had influence on behavior modification approaches used to treat disorders. Learning and performance are related but influenced by different factors in behaviorist theory.

This document discusses cognitive, emotional, and social development from childhood through adulthood based on theories from Freud, Erickson, and Piaget. It describes key stages of development including trust vs mistrust in infancy, autonomy vs shame and doubt in toddlers, initiative vs guilt in preschoolers, industry vs inferiority in school-aged children, identity vs role confusion in adolescence, intimacy vs isolation in young adults, and integrity vs despair in late adulthood. It also outlines Piaget's stages of cognitive development from sensorimotor to concrete to formal operational thought. Dental considerations are discussed for each developmental period.
Human Development II - Guidance Problemsbartlettfcs
This document discusses common causes of behavioral problems in young children and effective ways to deal with them. Environmental causes include overstimulation, disruptions to routine, noise, and long waiting times. Personal experiences that can cause problems are frustration, physical issues, stress, and family stressors. Prolonged stress can negatively impact brain development. The document outlines specific behavioral issues like negativism, stealing, anger, biting, tattling, body exploration, thumbsucking, and fears. It provides guidance on how to address each problem, emphasizing understanding the child's perspective, preventing misbehavior, and helping the child develop coping skills.
What Happens if We Replace School Detention With School Meditation?Meditation Fix
This document discusses replacing school detention with meditation. It argues that detention is not an effective punishment and can make misbehavior worse. Meditation, on the other hand, has many benefits for students like reduced stress, anxiety, and improved focus and self-control. The document describes studies that found meditation reduced bullying, cruelty, and non-compliance in students. It discusses one school that replaced detention with a meditation room and saw positive results like fewer suspensions. In conclusion, the document argues meditation is a better approach than detention because it teaches self-control rather than just punishment.
1) Parents play a crucial role in a child's development across several domains, including cognitive, socio-cultural, physical, mental, and spiritual development. Through positive parenting techniques like interaction, stimulation, and modeling healthy behaviors, parents can help children develop skills and traits.
2) Parents influence children from an early age by how they resolve conflicts, choose friends, exercise, eat healthy foods, understand discipline, and develop a sense of spirituality. Positive parenting aims to instill values like teamwork and goal-setting in children.
3) While therapy can help with child development, parents don't need to feel helpless - they can actively participate in treatment at home through play-and-learn activities that guide children
CHFD215 LESSON 7Social Understanding, Peers, Media, and Sc.docxjeffsrosalyn
CHFD215 | LESSON 7
Social Understanding, Peers, Media, and Schooling
This week addresses the development of social cognition, or how children come to understand their multifaceted social world. We will also learn about the importance of peer relations, television, computers, and schooling in child development.
Topics to be covered include:
Stages in Social Understanding.
Impact of Peer Relations, Media, and Schooling in Child Development
Development of Self-Awareness and Self-Concept
How do children come to understand their multidimensional social world? How do they think about and interpret their experiences with others? These questions address the concept of social cognition, thinking about characteristics of the self and other people. The first step in this development is self-awareness.
You may wonder when babies begin to recognize the concept of self. The development of self-awareness occurs in stages, with the first stage commencing at birth.
As language takes more of a role in the toddler’s interactions, self-awareness increases, as the toddler is now able to express the self in a more defined manner. Between 18 and 30 months, children begin to classify themselves and others on the basis of perceptually distinct attributes and behaviors, such as age, gender, size, and temperament. This is known as the categorical self. The remembered self encompasses a bigger picture as children rely on autobiographical memories to view themselves as continuously existing individuals. This type of awareness grows out of conversations and interactions with adults who can elaborate on past experiences. Finally, the concept of the enduring self is developed as preschoolers begin to discuss future events and begin to view themselves as persisting over time.
SELF-AWARENESS
NEWBORNS
INFANTS
TODDLERS
You may recall that newborns have the capacity for intermodal perception, or making sense of light, sound, tactile, odor, and taste information. As babies touch their toes, watch their arms move, and hear themselves cry, they begin to differentiate their own bodies from their surroundings. After feeling a particular object with their hands, they are able to visually distinguish it from other objects.
Theory of Mind Development
You may recall that, as children think about themselves and others, they form a naïve theory of mind, which is a coherent understanding of their own and others’ vivid mental lives. In other words, they are aware that people have personal thoughts. This contributes to their ability to consider the perspective of others, as they understand that someone else may not be thinking the same thoughts as them.
By the time children have reached the age of three, children begin to realize the connections among perceiving, feeling, and desiring.
Factors influencing theory of mind include language and verbal reasoning, executive function, parent-child conversations about mental states, make-believe play, and social interaction wit ...

This document discusses strategies for keeping children focused during classroom learning. It notes that some children have difficulties maintaining focus due to underdeveloped executive function skills. One strategy discussed is using cues like hand clapping or bells to get children's attention before giving instructions. Other strategies mentioned include minimizing noise and distractions by having students sit toward the front of the classroom. The document also discusses research showing that instructions to "stay on task" can improve preschoolers' attention and performance, especially when distractions are present. Overall, the strategies aim to strengthen children's developmental and cognitive skills to improve their focus, attention, comprehension and engagement during learning activities.
Socio emotional development of infants and toddlers예뻐 반
This document discusses socio-emotional development in young children. It refers to a child's ability to form relationships, regulate emotions, and learn about their environment in a culturally appropriate context. The first three years of life are particularly important for development as attachments form and temperament emerges. Key aspects of socio-emotional development include attachment to caregivers, temperament, and the development of moral understanding. Attachment provides emotional security for infants through responsive caregiving. A child's temperament, or inborn personality traits, also influence their socio-emotional development. Around ages 2 to 3, children begin to self-evaluate and develop a sense of right and wrong.
The document provides an overview of a lecture on holistic social and emotional development in early childhood education. It discusses key topics like developmental domains, theories of social-emotional development including attachment theory and social learning theory, the importance of play, and factors that influence child development. The lecture emphasizes taking a whole child approach and recognizing how development across different domains overlaps and influences each other. It stresses the importance of secure attachments and supportive environments for positive social-emotional development in young children.
1) Developmental milestones proposed by Arnold Gesell occur in predictable sequences, allowing developmental issues to be identified and addressed. However, a child's development can vary across physical, cognitive, and social/emotional domains and is influenced by many environmental factors.
2) A child's environment must meet their basic needs for development to progress. Trauma can delay or arrest development as needs take time to feel securely met.
3) Positive attachment enables exploration and cognitive growth, while insufficient attachment focuses development on survival and can disrupt the brain. Trauma affects cognitive and learning milestones, which vary individually rather than by age.
The document discusses the behaviorist perspective in psychology. Some key points include:
- Behaviorism focuses on observable behaviors and rejects studying internal mental states.
- Behaviorists like B.F. Skinner used concepts like operant conditioning to shape animal and human behavior through reinforcement and punishment.
- Operant conditioning uses rewards and punishments to increase or decrease certain behaviors. Classical conditioning also influences learned behaviors and responses.
- Behaviorism had influence on behavior modification approaches used to treat disorders. Learning and performance are related but influenced by different factors in behaviorist theory.

· Previous professional experiences that have had a profound effect:
Before I started college, my parents wanted me to excel in healthcare knowing its high demand. The path to health care and eventual employment in a notable hospital setting seemed less risky than the one of Art and design. A few networking events and some LinkedIn leads later I came across an opportunity to start a Biomedical Engineering startup in South Florida with two investors willing to mentor me in a field I wasn’t familiar with. Luckily this new venture I was undertaking had a somewhat speculative risk. I made sure they were mostly in my favor thanks to the connections my investors had in the industry, and my background in health care. My hard work and diligence paid off slowly teaching myself the mechanics of the industry through the engineers we would hire. I remember watching how they would calibrate medical devices from pumps to life-saving equipment in awe. And with the same tenacity absorbing all the medical jargon in the Biomed world. I was adamant about doing my best and being the best even if that meant leaving my creative dreams behind. We started the business almost four years ago as a small minority women-owned business in the corner of a business complex. Five biomedical engineers and six technicians later we are still scaling and have since expanded our office from that small corner to the entire business building. Currently, we are a nationally recognized Biomed and medical supply company for some of the largest healthcare facilities in both the civilian and government sector. Yet through out all the achievement I felt the only sense of raw passion was when I collaborated with my engineers in delivering problem solving services to the hospital we served. Their job was to service devices in a hospital at a micro level and I would bridge that gap by identifying problems and finding opportunities in product service at a large-scale. Working hand in hand with the engineers in articulating the hospital need for turnover I would use design through projective process in creating a plan that would work in the most practical sense.
This moment of free creative problem solving was the highlight of my job. It gave me an opportunity to realize that although at times my approach was unconventional it would work. My systematic methodology I had adapted from working with engineers and my innate out of the box idea would come to together to solve some of the most challenging issues. Little did I know that this minor stroke of self-awareness would one day have me consider architecture.
Your current strengths and weaknesses in reaching your goal.
I realized my creative talents in design could not flourish under the pressures of work. I would constantly leave the office feeling drained in a profession my heart was not set on. In this I learned my weakness was how far I was willing to neglect the urge for creativity, and in exchange it jeopardized my sense of purpos.

· Please select ONE of the following questions and write a 200-word discussion.
1. The Federal Reserve Board has enormous power over people's lives with its power to set and influence policy that determines monetary policy in the United States. Do you think this is proper for a democracy to provide the FED with so such power? How is the FED held accountable?
2. Do you believe that the roles of government should change from era to era, or should the US determine the proper role of government and try to maintain it through the ages?
3. Explain Executive Power in the US Constitution and briefly the process by which it developed over the years. Do you think the Framers should have been more specific about the powers of the presidency? Should the country try to make it more specific today?
· Please read the discussions below and write a 100 to 150 words respond for each discussion.
1. (question 1) I do believe that this is proper for a democracy to provided such power to FED. Without the FED the economy would face two problem, which are recessions that can lead into depressions, and inflation. The FED needs to have power to endures the country will not fall into economic trouble. In class professor McWeeney stated that the FED has the power to increase interest rates to control inflation, and the power to decrease interest rates so that theres more money in the economy to create more business and jobs so there wont be a recession. The FED needs these power to try to put the economy in a sweet spot. The FED is held accountable to the government and public. The FED does this by being transparent and giving and annual report to congress.
2. (question 2) I believe that the roles of the government should be changed from era to era. My main reason the roles should be changed is because major changes are constantly happening in the field of law. For example, the progressive era and modern era had several economic reforms that had taken place including increased regulation, anti-trust activity, application of an income tax, raise on social insurance programs, etc. Throughout this time, the government gave women the right to vote. I believe the economy is growing rapidly due to employment relationships, better technology, education, new polices, social and economic changes. This is the reason why the roles of the government should be changed from era to era.

· If we accept the fact that we may need to focus more on teaching.docxalinainglis
· If we accept the fact that we may need to focus more on teaching civic responsibility, how can this work with both "policies and people" in the school where you become principal?
In order to increase the focus on teaching civic responsibility, policy must be in place supporting this goal. A school leader must be willing to invest time and funds into planning, training, and implementing curriculum that emphasizes civics. Staff members may have different levels of interest, understanding, and comfort when it comes to incorporating civic responsibility into their teaching, so providing professional development in this area would be critical. The strategic plan for integrating civic responsibility and the expectations for each teacher’s involvement should be clearly communicated. In addition to establishing these policies regarding civics education, the school leader and teachers must work to model civic responsibility. In addition to sharing his or her vision for increased focus on civics with the school staff, the school leader should work to share his or her vision with school board members, other district personnel including the superintendent, and the greater community. Lastly, school leaders need to support their staff as they take risks and work to develop and implement new activities, discussions, and projects centered around teaching civic responsibility.
· How will you lead your staff in this part of the curriculum?
In leading my staff in this part of the curriculum, I would work to secure professional development related to civic responsibility, as this is not an area that I have expertise in, and work as a staff to develop our vision and implementation goals. I would also provide examples such as the work of the exemplar schools described in the article in integrating civic responsibility across all content areas, implementing service-learning programs, and creating partnerships between the school and community. I would also work within PLTs to develop ways that civic responsibility could be incorporated within their curriculum and remind them that they have my support as they embark on this endea

Introduction
This week, we will explore risk management. Risk management is one of those areas in project management that separates good project managers from great project managers. A good project manager makes risk management an integral part of every phase of project work. Risks are identified, prioritized, and understood. There are clear responsibilities within the team as to whose is responsible for implementing a risk response to reduce the impact should it occur. So let's get started.
What is Risk?
*Risk: An uncertain event or condition that, if it occurs, has a positive or negative effect on one or more project objectives.
Risks can be positive, meaning beneficial to the project, or they can be negative, meaning detrimental to the project.
Many students have a difficult time visualizing positive risks. A positive risk is an opportunity that may increase the probability of success, the return on investment, or the benefits of the project. They may also be ways to reduce project costs or ways to complete the project early. There may even be methods to improve project quality or overall performance. These are all examples of positive risks.
A negative risk can be easier to understand. It is the possibility that something will go wrong, a threat to the success of the project. It is important to remember that a risk is a possibility, not a fact. It is a potential problem. At GettaByte Software, there is the potential that a power outage would occur during data transfer. The potential exists that a key resource could become unavailable due to some unforeseen circumstance, like illness. Those are threats to the success of the project.
When buying a house to renovate, there are potential risks with respect to plumbing, wiring, the foundation, and so on.
A project manager needs to consider trying to make positive risks happen while trying to prevent negative ones from occurring. To do this, a project manager can take a proactive approach to risk management. This means he or she plans a risk response should it look as though the risk will become a reality. In this way, everyone knows exactly how to prepare and respond to the risk once it does become an issue.
The Risk Management Process
A project has both good and bad risks, which are referred to as positive and negative risks or opportunities and threats. For positive risks or opportunities, the project manager can choose from a range of risk responses. For threats, a project manager has a similar range of choices. The following, as described in the PMBOK® Guide, are the risk management processes.

Helen Petrakis Identifying Data: Helen Petrakis is a 52-year-old, Caucasian female of Greek descent living in a four-bedroom house in Tarpon Springs, FL. Her family consists of her husband, John (60), son, Alec (27), daughter, Dmitra (23), and daughter Althima (18). John and Helen have been married for 30 years. They married in the Greek Orthodox Church and attend services weekly.
Presenting Problem: Helen reports feeling overwhelmed and “blue.” She was referred by a close friend who thought Helen would benefit from having a person who would listen. Although she is uncomfortable talking about her life with a stranger, Helen says that she decided to come for therapy because she worries about burdening friends with her troubles. John has been expressing his displeasure with meals at home, as Helen has been cooking less often and brings home takeout. Helen thinks she is inadequate as a wife. She states that she feels defeated; she describes an incident in which her son, Alec, expressed disappointment in her because she could not provide him with clean laundry. Helen reports feeling overwhelmed by her responsibilities and believes she can’t handle being a wife, mother, and caretaker any longer.
Family Dynamics: Helen describes her marriage as typical of a traditional Greek family. John, the breadwinner in the family, is successful in the souvenir shop in town. Helen voices a great deal of pride in her children. Dmitra is described as smart, beautiful, and hardworking. Althima is described as adorable and reliable. Helen shops, cooks, and cleans for the family, and John sees to yard care and maintaining the family’s cars. Helen believes the children are too busy to be expected to help around the house, knowing that is her role as wife and mother. John and Helen choose not to take money from their children for any room or board. The Petrakis family holds strong family bonds within a large and supportive Greek community.
Helen is the primary caretaker for Magda (John’s 81-year-old widowed mother), who lives in an apartment 30 minutes away. Until recently, Magda was self-sufficient, coming for weekly family dinners and driving herself shopping and to church. Six months ago, she fell and broke her hip and was also recently diagnosed with early signs of dementia. Helen and John hired a reliable and trusted woman temporarily to check in on Magda a couple of days each week. Helen would go and see Magda on the other days, sometimes twice in one day, depending on Magda’s needs. Helen would go food shopping for Magda, clean her home, pay her bills, and keep track of Magda’s medications. Since Helen thought she was unable to continue caretaking for both Magda and her husband and kids, she wanted the helper to come in more often, but John said they could not afford it. The money they now pay to the helper is coming out of the couple’s vacation savings. Caring for Magda makes Helen think she is failing as a wife and mother because she no longer ha.

Overview
: In Unit 1 and Unit 2, we focused on ways that writers build ideas from personal memories and experiences into interesting narratives that convey significance and meaning to new audiences. In Unit 3, we have been discussing how writers invent ideas by interacting with other communities through firsthand observation and description. These relationships and discoveries can give writers insight into larger concepts or ideas that are valuable to specific communities. For this writing project, you will use firsthand observations and discoveries to write about people and the issues that are important to them. Your evidence will come from the details you observe as you investigate other people, places, and events.
Assignment
Write an ethnography essay focused on a particular group of people and the routines or practices that best reveal their unique significance as a group.
An ethnography is a written description of a particular cultural group or community. For the ethnography essay, you can follow the guidelines in the CEL, p. 110-112. Your ethnography should:
· Begin with your observations of a particular group. Plan to observe this group 2-3 times, so that you can get a better sense of their routines, habits, and practices.
o
Note: if you cannot travel to observe a group or community, plan to observe that community digitally through website documents, social media, and/or emails exchanged with group members.
· Convey insight into the characteristics that give the group unique significance.
· Provide context and background, including location, values, beliefs, histories, rituals, dialogue, and any other details that help convey the group's significance.
· Follow a deliberate organizational pattern that focuses on one or more insights about the group while also providing details and information about the group's culture and routine
As you look back over your observations and notes, remember that your essay should do more than simply relate details without any larger significance. Ethnographies also draw out the unique, interesting, and special qualities of a group or culture that help readers connect to their values or motivations. Note: Please keep in mind that writing in this class is public, and anything you write about may be shared with other students and instructors. Please only write about details that you are comfortable making public within our classroom community.

Behaviors That Still Challenge Children and Adults
Developing Young Children’s
Self-Regulation through
Everyday Experiences
®
1, 2, 3
As university faculty, I
often collaborate with teachers
when young children experi-
ence learning or behavior chal-
lenges. Every child is different.
Some have difficulty express-
ing their ideas verbally. Some
struggle to get along with peers
or follow classroom routines. In
each case, however, one thing
is the same: improved learning
and behavior requires strong
self-regulation skills.
According to Ellen Galinsky,
president and co-founder of the
Families and Work Institute and
author of Mind in the Making,
regulating one’s thinking, emo-
tions, and behavior is critical
for success in school, work, and life (2010). A child who
2. stops playing and begins cleaning up when asked or spon-
taneously shares a toy with a classmate, has regulated
thoughts, emotions, and behavior (Bronson 2000).
From infancy, humans automatically look in the direction
of a new or loud sound. Many other regulatory functions
become automatic, but only after a period of intentional
use. On the other hand, intentional practice is required
to learn how to regulate and coordinate the balance and
motor movements needed to ride a bike. Typically, once
one learns, the skill becomes automatic.
The process of moving from
intentional to automatic regula-
tion is called internalization. Some
regulated functions, such as
greeting others appropriately
or following a sequence
to solve a math problem,
always require intentional
effort. It is not surprising
then that research has found
that young children who engage
in intentional self-regulation learn
more and go further in their educa-
tion (Blair & Diamond 2008).
Children develop foundational
skills for self-regulation in the
first five years of life (Blair 2002;
Galinsky 2010), which means
early childhood teachers play an
important role in helping young children regulate thinking
and behavior. Fortunately, teaching self-regulation does

is
i
it to what they already know. Children must also learn to
then use self-regulation to communicate with any number
of systems (such as motor or language systems) to choose
and carry out a response.
Self-regulation is clearly not an isolated skill. Children
must translate what they experience into information they
can use to regulate thoughts, emotions, and behaviors
(Blair & Diamond 2008). Infants translate the feel of sooth-
ing touch and the sound of soft voices into cues that help
them develop self-calming skills. Toddlers and preschoolers
begin to translate cues from adults, such as “Your turn is
next,” into regulation that helps them inhibit urges to grab
food or toys. They begin to learn how long they must usu-
ally wait to be served food or to have a turn playing with a
desired toy, which helps them regulate emotional tension.
Because self-regulation involves different domains, regu-
lation of one domain affects other areas of development.
Emotional and cognitive self-regulation are not separate,
distinct skills. Rather, thinking affects emotions and emo-
tions affect cognitive development (Blair & Diamond 2008).
Children who cannot effectively regulate anxiety or discour-
agement tend to move away from, rather than engage in,
challenging learning activities. Conversely, when children
regulate uncomfortable emotions, they can relax and focus
5. on learning cognitive skills. Similarly, children experience
better emotional regulation when they replace thoughts
like “I’m not good at this” with thoughts like “This is dif-
ficult, but I can do it if I keep trying.” Regulating anxiety
and thinking helps children persist in challenging activities,
which increases their opportunities to practice the skills
required for an activity.
Self-regulation is also like using a thermostat because
both are active, intentional processes. Setting a thermostat
requires an intentional decision and the device actively
monitors environmental temperature. Similarly, self-regula-
tion requires intentional decisions (“I will not hit Andrew!”)
and active processes (sitting on one’s hands so they are
unavailable for hitting). Although children’s behavior is
regulated by many processes that function outside their
awareness, researchers have found children’s intentional
self-regulation predicts school success (Zimmerman
1994). When provided with appropriate opportunities,
young children can and do learn intentional self-regula-
tion. Researchers Elena Bodrova and Deborah Leong, for
example, taught preschoolers to plan their play activities
and found planning helped children develop stronger self-
regulation skills (Bodrova & Leong 2007). Planning is an
important part of self-regulation. Teachers might suggest
that children sit on their hands to remind themselves to not
hit or touch another child. To use this practice, children
must think about potential future actions and then imagine
and enact alternative behaviors.
Finally, just as a thermostat monitors conditions to main-
tain optimal temperature, self-regulation monitors condi-
tions to maintain optimal arousal for a given task (Blair &
Diamond 2008). Everyone experiences peaks and lows in
levels of attention, emotion, and motivation. As children
develop, they learn that some activities require them to
pay attention more (that is, the activities require increased
7. ers to reduce high physical
or emotional arousal.
How does self-
regulation develop?
As children develop, their
regulatory skills become
more sophisticated (Kopp
1982; Blair & Diamond
2008). Infants begin to
regulate arousal and
sensory-motor responses
even before birth. An infant
may suck her thumb after
hearing a loud sound, indicating that she is regulating her
responses to the environment. Toddlers start to inhibit
responses and comply with adult caregivers. By age 4, chil-
dren begin to exhibit more complex forms of self-regulation,
such as anticipating appropriate responses and modifying
their responses when circumstances are subtly different.
For example, clapping is appropriate after someone speaks
during sharing time at school, but not while a teacher is
giving directions.
Self-regulation skills develop gradually, so it is important
that adults hold developmentally appropriate expectations
for children’s behavior. Vygotsky called the range of devel-
opmentally appropriate expectations the zone of proximal
development (ZPD) (John-Steiner & Mahn 1996). The ZPD is
the “growing edge of competence” (Bronson 2000, 20) and
represents those skills a child is ready to learn. Expecting
children to demonstrate skills outside the ZPD is ineffective
and often detrimental. Punishing young children when they
fail to sustain attention longer than a few minutes or fail to
calm themselves quickly when frustrated does nothing to
help them learn self-regulation. Likewise, failing to provide
8. challenging opportunities for children to advance their
skills can hinder their growth.
As they develop, most children begin to use self-regula-
tion skills without prompting or assistance. They develop
strategies to manage incoming information, choose appro-
priate responses, and maintain levels of arousal that allow
them to actively participate in learning. When children
routinely self-regulate without adult assistance, they have
internalized self-regulation (Bronson 2000). Vygotsky
([1934]1986) described internalization as a process in
which children progress from co-regulating behavior with
an adult to doing so independently. Thus, to develop self-
regulation skills, children need many opportunities to expe-
rience and practice with adults and capable peers.
Supporting self-regulation in a
kindergarten classroom
In the following vignette, I describe an
interaction I observed between Melissa, a
kindergarten teacher, and two children, Lucy
and Tricia, as they explored the science cen-
ter. Melissa used this everyday interaction
to help the children practice and strengthen
self-regulation skills.
I sit quietly in a corner, observing Lucy, a
kindergartner with a moderate speech and
language delay. The children experiment with
clay and rocks, water and blocks, and dirt and
seeds. Their teacher, Melissa, moves among
them, using her presence, words, and actions
to direct the children’s attention and help
them stay motivated and engaged. Melissa makes her way
9. to the water table where 5-year-old Tricia constructs intri-
cate waterways with plastic blocks. Lucy leans on the table,
watching silently.
“What are you doing, Tricia?” Melissa says as she pulls up
a chair and sits next to the table.
Tricia focuses intently as she repositions a block then straight-
ens and looks at Melissa, “I’m making the water go fast!”
Putting her hand in the water, Melissa smiles, “Wow, it is
moving fast! May I play?”
“Sure!” Tricia nods.
Melissa turns to Lucy, “Want to play with us?” Lucy nods
and Melissa hands her a block, “Where do you want to put
it?” Lucy looks down and shrugs.
“Lucy, try putting it here.” Tricia points to the next hole in
the path.
Lucy hesitates but takes the block. She tries putting the
block in an empty space, but it doesn’t fit. Lucy rests the
block on the side of the water table and looks down. Gently
rubbing Lucy’s back, Melissa asks, “Do you need help?”
Lucy nods. Melissa leans in and whispers, “Tricia’s been
doing this a lot; why don’t you ask her how to do it? I bet she
could show you.”
Lucy looks up at Tricia, “Can you help me?”
“Sure!” Tricia takes Lucy’s hand and positions it over the
next space in the path. “Okay, push hard.” Lucy leans on the
block, pushing, but it does not go in. Tricia moves closer to
Lucy. “Push really, really hard. You can do it!” Lucy, lips tight
and determined, pushes the block hard into the hole. Water
swirls around it as a smile spreads across her face.
Self-regulation skills
develop gradually,
so it is important that
adults hold develop-
mentally appropriate
expectations for chil-
10. dren’s behavior.
Behaviors That Still Challenge Children and Adults

pulling up a chair. She then asked Tricia a question about
her activity, waited for an answer, and responded posi-
tively. For Tricia, Melissa modeled how to invite a reluctant
observer to play: she turned her attention to Lucy, offered
a play invitation, handed her an object, and asked her to
make a play decision. When Lucy shrugged, Tricia followed
Melissa’s lead and suggested a way Lucy could participate.
All these behaviors required self-regulation. To take
conversational turns, children must recognize when their
turn has ended, then listen and wait until it is their turn
again. They must then
choose an appropriate
response from unlim-
ited possibilities. To
ask a playmate about
her play, a child must
inhibit talking about
her own play and
listen to someone
else. Asking to play
requires an anxious
child to regulate emo-
tion, inhibit passive
behavior, increase
arousal, and engage
despite potential
discomfort.
11. Of all the self-
regulation Melissa
modeled, perhaps the
most important scaf-
fold was calling atten-
tion to the opportunity
for Lucy to join Tricia.
To actively engage in
learning opportunities,
children must attend
to and recognize that
a situation offers the
potential for interest-
ing interactions and
things to do. Adults
can help children
develop this regula-
tory skill in a variety of
ways, beginning with
very young children. When adults hold infants or toddlers
on their laps and point to objects or letters in a book while
using their voices to indicate excitement, they help chil-
dren focus their attention on images that are most impor-
tant for learning. By getting the ball rolling, Melissa not only
helped Lucy actively participate, but allowed Tricia to talk
about her science activity and demonstrate to others how
to replicate her experiment.
Young Children • July 2011
Melissa stands up and gives Lucy’s shoulder a gentle
squeeze. “Lucy, you did it! I knew you could! Tricia, thank
you!” Melissa moves toward another center. “You girls have
fun. I’ll be at the next station if you need me.”
12. As she walks away, Melissa hears Lucy say, “Thank you,
Tricia!”
“No problem,” Tricia replies. “Where should we put the
next block?”
Melissa turns around just in time to see Lucy grab a block,
shove it in place, and say, “There!”
Providing
scaffolding to
help children
develop self-

Helping children
develop self-regula-
tion skills is similar
to helping children
learn to read, count,
or ride a bike.
Effective teachers
use a variety of
strategies to bridge
the developmental
space between
what children
already know and
can do and more
complex skills and
knowledge. Three
teaching strategies
are critical for scaf-

ing, using hints and
cues, and gradually

Using hints and cues
When teachers use simple directions, gestures, and
touch, they provide young children with valuable cues
about how and when to regulate their emotions, attention,
and behavior. Teachers can help children regulate attention
by pointing to or commenting on important or interest-
ing aspects of a picture, word, or pattern. They can gently
touch a child’s back to cue a child to relax (but keep in
mind that for some children, touch may increase tension).
Sometimes, children need hints and cues in addition
to modeling. Lucy did not consistently engage. She nod-
ded, indicating her desire to play, but looked down and
shrugged when handed a block. She started to play, but
gave up quickly when she encountered difficulty. Lucy
needed direct support. Melissa gently rubbed Lucy’s back,
cuing her to remain calm and directing her attention away
from feeling
16. frustrated
and toward
solving the
problem.
Learning to
recognize
when one
needs help
and to iden-
tify good
sources of
help are critical self-regulation skills. By leaning in and qui-
etly suggesting that Lucy ask Tricia, Melissa hinted about
where to get help and continued to cue Lucy to remain
calm. Melissa also modeled for Tricia how to give appropri-
ate hints and cues. Tricia then imitated Melissa’s behavior,
and coached Lucy to success.
Younger children may need more explicit hints and cues.
Cuing children to hold their hands or put them in their
pockets helps them regulate impulses to touch, grab, or
hit. Key phrases such as “look here,” “look at me,” or “look
where I am pointing” are explicit cues teachers can use
to help young children focus their attention. Beginning in
infancy, teachers can help children recognize and name
their emotions by calmly saying to frustrated or angry
babies and toddlers, “You sound angry” or “I wonder if
you’re frustrated,” and then cuing them to start self-calming
by using gentle touch and saying, “Let’s relax” or “I’m here
to help you.” As children begin to use language, adults can
provide cues about when and how to ask for help, when to
take a break, or when to try a different strategy.
Gradually withdrawing adult support
17. At the heart of scaffolding is teachers’ careful attention to
timing the withdrawal of their support. As children increas-
ingly direct their attention appropriately, persist in chal-
lenging tasks, and use
language to engage
others or seek help,
they increase their
ability to act indepen-
dently. As they do,
teachers turn over
more of the regulat-
ing responsibilities to
the children’s control,
while monitoring their
progress and interven-
ing when necessary to
provide appropriate
support.
Scaffolding chil-
dren’s learning
requires skillful
removal of adult
assistance. According
to Salonen, Vauras,
and Efklides (2005, 2) teachers must pay careful attention
to “the learner’s moment-by-moment changing indepen-
dent functioning.” After observing a successful exchange
between Tricia and Lucy, Melissa withdrew, but she stayed
close. She encouraged the children to ask for help should
they need it, let them know where to find her, and moni-
tored their interaction.
Withdrawing adult support from infants, toddlers, and
preschoolers requires continual monitoring by adults. The
younger the child, the more inconsistent self-regulation
20. surroundings. At every age, learning self-regulation happens
within children’s everyday experiences with trusted adults
who regulate their own thinking, attention, emotion, behav-
ior, and motivation.
Intentionality and teaching self-regulation in
everyday interactions
Teaching young children self-regulation first requires
strong teacher self-regulation. Children learn to regulate
thoughts, feelings, behavior, and
emotion by watching and responding
to adults’ self-regulation. Referring
to motivational regulation, Galinsky
notes, “Adults foster children’s motiva-
tion by being motivated themselves”
(2010, 11). Lucy and Tricia’s interac-
tion at the water table presented a
perfect occasion to strengthen their
self-regulation skills. Melissa recog-
nized the opportunity because she was
prepared to support self-regulation
through her teaching practices. She
intentionally reflected on the children’s
needs and planned in advance the
types of modeling, hints, and cues she
would use to scaffold their self-regulation. Melissa planned
to help Lucy regulate emotions, motivation, language, and
social skills so she could initiate interactions with her class-
mates. Melissa regulated her own attention, deliberately
looking for opportunities to scaffold Lucy’s skills. Melissa
knew Lucy’s skills were at the point where she needed only
a little nudge to engage. When the opportunity presented
itself, Melissa regulated her own interactions, being careful
to model behavior rather than direct Lucy.
During the interaction, Melissa monitored Lucy’s
21. responses, mentally comparing them to her knowledge
of Lucy’s skills. She considered the types of support she
had previously decided Lucy needed. Melissa recognized
when Lucy needed hints and cues. Knowing gentle touch
often helped Lucy regulate anxiety, Melissa rubbed Lucy’s
back to soothe her, kept her voice low when offering sug-
gestions, and refrained from solving the problem for her.
Melissa intentionally removed direct adult support and
regulated her attention so she was aware of the girls’ con-
tinued interaction even as she moved away to engage with
other children. Melissa’s self-regulated teaching practice
created an environment that allowed her to scaffold the
children’s self-regulation through an everyday classroom
experience.
Conclusion
Teachers of young children play a vital role in help-
ing children develop foundational self-regulation skills.
Fortunately, young children’s everyday experiences offer
abundant opportunities for developing self-regulation.
Teachers can take advantage of these opportunities by
• identifying each child’s self-regulation zone of proximal
development and planning the kinds of modeling, hints, and
cues the child needs to continue his or her development,
• watching for opportunities in everyday classroom experi-
ences to scaffold self-regulation,
• withdrawing direct support as
children begin to demonstrate
new skills, and
• monitoring children’s
activities to ensure they are
22. successful.
When teachers deliberately
teach self-regulation as part
of everyday experiences, they
help children become actively
engaged learners, laying the
foundation for years of future
success in school and life.

company for three years and produced no tangible results. One
of the reasons for the impasse was the lack of sound, factual
data. The executive management team had developed three
growth strategies, but could not agree on which one to follow
because of a lack of a fact-based foundation for the decision.
In 2000, a project team was formed to tackle this issue, and was
given complete latitude to make any recommendation for an
Italian/pizzeria concept based on customer needs and
expectations. The team consisted of the marketing director
(team leader), two executive vice presidents, the director of
operations, two franchise owners, an external strategic business
partner, and the CEO, who was the team sponsor. The key tool
that successfully led to an understanding of their customers and
to a new and innovative restaurant design was Voice of the
Customer (VOC). VOC is a structured methodology for
listening to customers that is promoted by the Center for
Quality of Management (CQM), an industrial consortium based
in Boston (http://www.cqm.org). The basis for VOC is asking
customers to express their needs and expectations through their
experiences. LaRosa’s completed 16 in-depth, one-on-one
interviews with current and potential customers both inside and
outside of their current market area to provide examples of
dining incidents these individuals had experienced, seeking “the
good, the bad, and the ugly.” Here are some responses from
customers of current competitors and potential competitors in
other markets.
1. “So there I was, like herded cattle, standing on the hard
concrete floor, cold wind blasting my ankles every time the
door opened, waiting and waiting for our name to be called.”
2. “And then I saw a dirty rag being slopped around a dirty
table!”
3. “The manager said, ‘That’s not a gnat, that’s black pepper,’
so I said I know the difference between black pepper and a gnat,
black pepper doesn’t have little wings on it!”
4. “When they’re that age, going to the bathroom is a full-
26. contact sport—they’re reaching and grabbing at everything, and
you’re trying to keep them from touching anything because the
bathroom is so dirty.”
What were the customers actually saying? One of the challenges
that LaRosa’s faced was to translate the “customer voices” into
actionable terms. In these examples, LaRosa’s understood the
customers as saying that restaurant design should consider the
diverse comfort needs of all guests, that it provide a facility that
customers implicitly trust, that customers feel cared for by
service staff, and that restroom cleanliness affirms guests’ trust
in restaurant cleanliness. In analyzing all the responses
gathered, LaRosa’s was able to prioritize the most important
customer requirements: (1) assurance that the kitchen is clean
(which is reflected by the cleanliness of the restrooms), (2)
prompt service, (3) food and drinks at their proper temperature,
(4) fresh food, (5) meeting the unique needs of adult guests as
well as families, (6) exceeding service expectations, (7) an easy
to read and understand menu, and (8) caring staff.
The experience of using VOC changed the company focus from
a “product-out” to a “market in” mentality. It gave them a
decision-making tool based on factual data and broke down
communication silos within the company, and eliminated the
age-old sales and marketing versus operations conflict. The
executive management team and directors were able to agree on
a growth strategy that had eluded them for three years. The
result was a new restaurant design concept that explicitly
addressed the voice of the customer. To meet the diverse needs
of customers, for example, LaRosa’s developed a larger waiting
area, a casual bar area with more of an adult atmosphere in
addition to the family dining areas, both table and booth
seating, and a private dining area for parties. LaRosa’s also
initiated an improved kids’ program highlighted by Luigi’s
Closet, a small area in which children can select a toy or
activity to keep them busy and crackers to eat while waiting for
dinner. The Chapter 5 Bonus Materials folder on the Premium
website includes a PowerPoint presentation of LaRosa’s
27. Restaurant Design.
The new restaurant jumped to second in sales behind LaRosa’s
flagship location. The dining room check average is 25 percent
higher than the market average, profitability as a percent of
gross sales is well above the chain average, and secret shopper
satisfaction results show that it is performing at the top of the
chain.
BUS445: TOTAL QUALITY MANAGEMENT
Assignment
1. Voice of the Customer. Due by Day 7. In the “Understanding
the Voice of the Customer at LaRosa’s Pizzerias” case study
