Our discussions this week have been both personal and reflective. As.docxMARRY7
Our discussions this week have been both personal and reflective. As we continue to reflect on the effects of hegemony, let us pinpoint where segregation may lie in schools today.
Assignment Instructions:
This written assignment is a personal reflection of your interpretation of your findings on segregation after performing a short literature review and conducting an interview with a local school.
Article Review
Locate two relatively current peer-reviewed articles (no more than 10 years old) on segregation in schools or resegregating schools. These articles do not have to discuss segregation overtly, it can be (and often is) implied. You may use the recommended resources for this week to locate these sources.
Interview
What experience or knowledge do you have of any contemporary segregation happening in your local schools, a school you used to attend, or one you have heard about? Think about the variety of groups discussed thus far as you consider contemporary segregation.
Conduct an informal interview, either face to face, via phone, or other means, with an administrator, teacher, or other credible staff member to address the perception of segregation in the school setting.
The following points should be considered in your interview:
Student demographics: (race, ethnicity, ELL, SPED, socioeconomic status, sexual orientations, if known)
What evidence is there to suggest that contemporary segregation is occurring and to what extent?
What they suggest could potentially be done to desegregate in their school OR describe what they know has been done over time to change perceptions.
Realize that the community itself may be segregated. For example, for students living in certain rural areas, there is simply very little exposure to minority cultures. This is an example of community segregation.(You may choose to use a different word, as “segregation” (e.g., exclusion) is a socially charged word and school personnel may become defensive).
It is pertinent that this interview is handled with sensitivity. Your goal is not to provoke an emotional reaction or make accusations or judgments. It is critical that your communication is proactive and professional when you set up your interview. You should be transparent about your assignment and the intent to understand issues that are commonly referred to as being historical in nature but may still be prevalent or in different forms than typically understood. It is therefore equally important that you select your interviewee wisely, keeping to professional staff with some real knowledge of the demographics and background of the school selected.
The Written Reflection Assignment (two to four pages, not including title and reference pages, and using APA format as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center, will include the following sections:
Part 1: Article Review
Summarize your findings, including what impact researchers say these practices may have on students and student achievement.

THE CULTURAL MEANING OF SUICIDE:
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
DAVID LESTER
The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey
ABSTRACT
Scholars sometimes stress that it is important to know the individual meaning
of suicide and the cultural meaning of suicide, but the meaning of these terms
remains unclear. The present article discusses this problem and suggests that
the individual meaning of suicide is best based on the motives for suicide,
while the cultural meaning of suicide is best rooted in the lay theories of
suicide in which the members of cultures and subcultures believe.
Colucci (2006) drew attention to the fact that theory and research into suicidal
behavior has neglected the role of culture. Suicide is typically considered to be the
same phenomenon throughout the world, and theories proposed in one region
(such as the West) are assumed to apply to other regions. In addition, Colucci
pointed out that the cultural meaning of suicide has been neglected except for
rare scholars who draw attention to this issue, such as Douglas (1967) and Boldt
(1988). However, there appears to be a great deal of confusion over what exactly
the “meaning” of suicide refers to and, more especially, the “cultural meaning” of
suicide. The purpose of the present article is to examine what these terms mean.
Colucci cited the work of Good and Good (1982) who suggested that the
meaning of an illness involves “the metaphors associated with a disease, the
ethnomedical theories, the basic values and conceptual forms, and the care
patterns that shape the experience of the illness and the social reactions to the
sufferer” (p. 148). This encompasses many separate concepts.

ism
which you have selected, and how does the work you have selected exemplify the style.
ESSAY
People use the term “modern” in a variety of ways, often very loosely, with a lot of implied associations of new, contemporary, up-to-date, and technological. We know the difference between a modern society and one that remains tied to the past and it usually has less to do with art and more to do with technology and industrial progress, things like indoor plumbing, easy access to consumer goods, freedom of expression, and voting rights. In the 19th century, however, modernity and its connection with art had certain specific associations that people began recognizing and using as barometers to distinguish themselves and their culture from earlier nineteenth century ways and attitudes.
Chronologically, Modernism refers to the period from 1850 to 1960. It begins with the Realist movement and ends with Abstract Expressionism. That’s just a little over one hundred years. During that period the western world experienced some significant changes that transformed Europe and the United States from traditional societies that were agriculturally based into modern ones with cities and factories and mass transportation.
Here are some important features that all modern societies share.
Capitalism
Capitalism replaced landed fortunes and became the economic system of modernity in which people exchanged labor for a fixed wage and used their wages to buy ever more consumer items rather than produce such items themselves. This economic change dramatically affected class relations because it offered opportunities for great wealth through individual initiative, industrialization and technology—somewhat like the technological and dot.com explosion of the late 20th and early 21st century. The industrial revolution which began in England in the late 18th century and rapidly swept across Europe (hit the U.S. immediately following the Civil War) transformed economic and social relationships, offered an ever increasing number of cheaper consumer goods, and changed notions of education. Who needed the classics when a commercial/technically oriented education was the key to financial success? The industrial revolution also fostered a sense of competition and progress that continues to influence us today.
Urban culture
Urban culture replaced agrarian culture as industrialization and cities grew. Cities were the sites of new wealth and opportunity with their factories and manufacturing potential..

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel.

SWOT analysis that took into account my strengths,
weaknesses, opportunities and threats. This discussion inquires
me about my strengths and opportunities. Regarding my
strengths, first of all, when I was engaged in a certain task, I
was very forced. For example, I spent a lot of time completing
my tasks and being proactive in all forums. I also have a strong
ability to track activities. In addition, I boast of a balance
between work and life. I am able to go to class, go to work, and
take care of my family. I am an ambitious person and I am very
interested in courses, research, research and leadership. I also
have the ability to write well. I always like to write academics
and technology. This has greatly improved my calligraphy by
hand and numbers.
On discovery of my potential strengths, I have further realized
and identified various opportunities that are open to me; so that
I can improve my strengths and gradually overcome my
weaknesses. First, I am able to involve other people to provide
feedback about their experiences when interacting with me. This
way, I will be able to rectify where possible. Moreover, I have
the opportunity to receive coaching in order to better my
leadership skills and personal skills. In order to be able to make

Diversity Worksheet
All of us have multifaceted cultural identities. For this reason,
you are likely to have experienced situations where you are in
the cultural majority, as well as others where you are in the
cultural minority. This exercise will help you reflect on how
your cultural memberships influence your ability to work
professionally with people of similar cultural backgrounds, as
well as with people with different cultural backgrounds. All of
us have biases. Failure to recognize these biases creates harm. It
takes more strength to acknowledge your biases than to argue
that you do not have any.
The focus of this worksheet is the group of people you work
with. If you are a classroom teacher, for example, the focus
would be on the students you teach. If you are a higher
education student affairs professional, the focus would be on
the students to whom your office provides services. Whatever
your professional role, you can decide what your “client group”
is and complete the worksheet accordingly. It is possible that
you have not experienced working with people in one or more
specific groups identified in the worksheet. It is also possible
4. that your professional role does not bring you into direct
contact with individuals about whom you would have specific
information in regard to their group memberships. It is still
possible for you to complete the worksheet by reflecting on
your own values and life background and reaching some
conclusions. There are no right or wrong answers.
If you are taking this course as part of transitioning to a new
professional role, you may choose to complete the worksheet
based on either your current role or the role for which you are
preparing.
Dr. Pamela Hays developed the ADDRESSING model used in
the worksheet, comprising 10 major factors of cultural
difference that are most common in the United States. Note that
this list is not comprehensive; there are thousands of different

Being bilingual has been a great advantage in working with
some parents, but I have been aware of prejudice from others.
S. Socioeconomic
Middle class
Sometimes it is hard to be mindful of the pressures faced by
students from disadvantaged families.
S. Sexual Orientation
Gay
I know I have biases against individuals who follow a
strict/literal interpretation of the scriptures.
I. Indigenous Status
No
I have students that are Ojibwe and have been extra careful of
how Native Americans are represented in my classroom.
N. Nationality

social sex roles (only men can do men things, and only women
can do women things). I find gender/social sex roles much more
fluid.Reference

7. Self-Assessment and Proposal
In this course, you will engage with interesting content, and you
will have the opportunity to demonstrate the knowledge and
skills that you develop several times throughout the course. For
your first assignment in this course, you will complete a self-
assessment of the knowledge and skills that are addressed in
this course. The items in this self-assessment are aligned to the
course competencies.
For each item in the table on Page 2, rate your level of
proficiency on each competency according to this scale:
0:
Nonperformance: I have no experience or expertise in this.
1:
Basic: I have limited experience and expertise in this.
2:
Proficient: I have some experience and average expertise in
this.
3:
Distinguished: I have extensive experience and expertise in this.
For each item, write a sentence or two presenting the evidence
that supports your rating. There are various types of evidence
you might provide depending on your unique situation. For
example, in support of a strength, you could refer to past
positive evaluations you received from a supervisor relative to
that strength; in support of an area for opportunity, you might
state that you have not had training or job experience that would
develop your skill in that area. The type of evidence you choose
is up to you, but it is not enough to make an unsupported
8. assessment.
In the section following the table, write a two-page proposal in
which you set goals for learning in this course, based on your
self-assessment data. Follow the prompts in parentheses and
italics to help you craft the content for each part of the
proposal. In the proposal, you will do the following:
· Describe two or three main strengths that emerged from this
self-assessment of the course knowledge and skills.
· Write three goal statements for learning during this course.
Each goal statement should be observable and measurable so
you can determine the extent of your improvement later on.
· Make a brief action plan: Explain what actions you will take
to address each goal throughout this course.
When you have completed this worksheet, save it and submit it
as Assignment 1.
