Observation Project: Step 1 SOCY 3119 Qualitative Research Methods Online Observation Project, Step 1 Propose in 1-2 pages a qualitative research project on a topic that you would like to investigate using participant observation. Keep in mind this is a brief assignment, no more than two pages. Choose a site that is interesting to you and reveals something to us about the social world and is sociologically relevant. Sociological relevance can be operationalized in this project by looking at gender dynamics, racial dynamics, family formation and experiences, health experiences, power relationships (this is just a short list). Sociology is broad! Observation Project, Step 1 The proposal should include at a minimum: a paragraph explaining your topic, its sociological relevance, and the research question two paragraphs on sampling/site selection (which site? why that site? which role will you take? how will you gain access to it?) a paragraph reflecting on your relationship and if and/or how your presence may or may not impact the space and your observations --I need to be able to read enough to give you feedback about the appropriateness of your sight for observation and its sociological relevance. Observation Project, Step 1 NOTE: For your observational research, you cannot select sites that will expose your participants or yourselves to unnecessary risk. I also discourage observation of any group that cannot give consent freely, this includes: Children in a classroom setting (they can assent, but you need their parents to give you consent and that would be too much work for this project). People with any kind of developmental disability People in prison, etc. Note: In general, including these groups in longer research studies is crucial for understanding the full human experience, but for a short-term class assignment like this, it presents ethical challenges. So what are some topics that students have proposed in the past? One set of topics that have been successful include those that focus on sites that are: Public places where people gather and consent may not be needed. Observing the dynamics of those places. Another set of topics that have been successful include those that focus on sites that are: Sites where you need to negotiate access with a gatekeeper and get access to the site. Observing the experience of an individual or group in that setting. Public sites Observing the homeless and transient population in Civic Center Park. Research Question: How often do non-homeless persons ignore homeless persons, and what effect does that have on the homeless person? Attending the services of a church attending by primarily Vietnamese individuals and a separate service attended by White individuals: Research Question: How do cultural differences impact the experiences of people in church? Observing on public transportation: Research question: How do people with physical disabilities navigate public transportation. .

Instructions
The prevalence of social media has had a huge impact on society in the area of how we tend to relate to each other and on what is considered to be normal in general. Taking a look at the ways in which social media changes attitudes and "norms" makes for an interesting study, and one that is applicable to understanding how society is slowly changing over time.
For this assignment, you will first conduct your own research on the effects of social media on societal norms (Part 1), then you will examine what has been found through previous research conducted by others (Part 2).
Part 1:
Compare and contrast the attitudes of two cohorts of people; one that consists of five people that rarely use social media and one cohort of five people that uses social media 2 or more hours a day.
Create a list of five people that you know that use social media at least 2 or more hours per day. This group of people will make up your first cohort. Then create a list of five people that you know that either do not use social media or use it very rarely. Take into account age when creating the cohorts, and try to keep the ages as similar as possible between the cohorts. Keeping a certain level of consistency in the two cohorts will help to negate the potential effects of generational differences. Provide a brief description of each of the ten people you are going to interview divided into their respective cohorts.
In other words, list the five people in the social media at least 2 or more hours a day, and provide a brief description of each along with why you chose them. Then provide a list of the five people that rarely or never use social media, and provide a brief description of each along with why you chose them.
Interview the participants to learn the similarities and differences between the two cohorts as it relates to attitudes, lifestyles, and relationships. Write a two-page paper comparing and contrasting what you learned about the two cohorts. Be sure to relate your findings to cultivation theory and socialization theory in the paper.
Part 2:
Now you will compare your research with research findings through previous research conducted by others. Look up at least 3 articles in the that relate to the topic of social media and its impact on society. You are not limited to articles that are strictly written on the specific topic of social media and norms. Articles that are covering social media and society are available from a wide number of angles. After studying these articles, write a two-page paper on what you learned on the topic of social media and its potential impact on societal attitudes, customs, and norms.

What Can One Person Do?
Secondary Research Project
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to create a shareable educational
resource about a particular structural inequality. In it, you will 1) describe the structural
inequality and 2) recommend at least 1 specific action people can take to help disrupt,
dismantle, or otherwise work against that structure. There are 3 major components to this
project: the resource itself, a 2-3 page reflection piece, and a Works Cited. Instructions
for each can be found below.
In doing this assignment, you’ll get the chance to:
• Synthesize information and ideas you’ve come across in the
readings, conversations, and assignments.
• Reflect on how education can be a crucial component of being an
active, engaged member of your community and of society as a
whole.
• Produce a concrete resource that you can put out into the world
about your topic.
Educational Resource Instructions
For the resource itself, I’m giving you a fair amount of freedom. You have to create an
educational resource, but the exact form it takes is really up to you. Some options people
have done in the past:
• Write an editorial/article about your topic that could be submitted
to a newspaper or other periodical. (You don’t have to actually
submit it.)
• Create a brochure about your topic that can be printed and
distributed.
• Create a short zine about your topic that can be printed and
distributed.
• Produce a short podcast or video about your topic.
• Create a blog post (with links for more info) about your topic.
• Create a website about your topic.
• Create an educational board game or video game about your topic.
• Something else that you come up with (and get approved by me)
While you have a lot of freedom for the form of the project, there are certain criteria that
all projects must meet. To get full credit your resource must:
• Be targeted towards a particular audience (likely a particular
group of stakeholders for the issue)—Think about whom you want
to reach. Who is likely to care about the issue if they learned about
it? Who might be willing and able to take action?
o Your target audience should influence the form and
language of the project. For example, you probably
wouldn’t create a video game if your target audience is
Idaho congresspeople (or maybe you would?).
• Contain the following components
1. A short background on the situation. Explain what is going
on, how it’s unequal, and why we should care about it.
2. A description of the communities that are most impacted by
the issue and how they are impacted. This is related to the
previous component; one way to make people care about an
issue is to show them the harm it is causing to a particular
group of people.
3. A description of at least 1 important cultural story or belief
that helps sustain the conditions of inequality. As Schwalbe
argues in Ch. 4—Arresting the Imagination, cul.

The study of social movement reflects the social issues in differe.docx
The study of social movement reflects the social issues in different periods have faced. This work will focus on the Abolition Movement and the Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) social movements. Social movement are a result of general public consensus towards dealing with major social issues in the community. This work will study the historical background and ideals that supported the development of these two social movement. This is intended to show the correlation between their emergence and the key social issues that the community faced.The Abolition Movement emerged in an effort to end slavery in the country. It held that all people are created equal, and hence the practice of slavery was unacceptable. This movement existed in the 19th century when many people started publicly displaying dissatisfaction for the slavery practices in the country. It placed more pressure on the authorities to outlaw slavery (Martos, Wilson & Meyer, 2017). It would allow for increased debate about segregation and discrimination. The LGBT movement is much more recent. It was started with the goal of affording members of the LGBT community with the same rights and recognition of heterosexual members of the community. For many generations, people categorized as LGBT were shunned and discriminated against. This movement intended to overcome these limitations set on the community members. It was motivated by the need to end widespread homophobic, transphobic and biphobic attitudes in the American community (Lysack, 2012).It is interesting to observe these roles that these social movements played in American history. It is especially interesting to know how each relates to the social issues that affected the American public at different times in the country’s history.

As you may have noticed as you have worked through earlier assessments, Sociology is applicable to our everyday lives. We can oftentimes take a sociological concept and use it to explain something that occurs in our own lives. For example, you have learned about norms and how we tend to follow the norms of a society. You can use that to explain how people behave when they are in an elevator. Most people face forward, look up at the numbers, and don't talk.
Many of your experiences can be analyzed using sociological concepts. For your final assessment, Assessment 6, you will complete a Sociology of Me and apply many of the concepts you have learned about in this course to your own life. For Assessment 5, begin to think about which concepts you would like to apply to your own experience, develop an outline, and identify appropriate resources. In order to complete this assessment, you will need to show your understanding of some additional concepts related to social structure, education, and technology/media.
We have learned how a society's culture can influence people. There are other elements in society, however, that also affect our decisions and behavior. Sociological research has found that in addition to culture, social structure and groups also significantly impact many of our individual choices. Our position in the social structure affects our behaviors, attitudes, and ideas. For example, an important element of social structure are groups. We belong to a variety of different groups. Decades of research have documented the impact of group conformity on the individual. Although people tend to often believe that they act as individuals and aren't impacted by others, research has found this is usually not the case. The Milgram experiment in your Resources is a great example. Milgram (1963) examined conformity and obedience and found that people are highly influenced by authority and the demands of conformity, even to the point that we will inflict pain on another person to obey authority.
Sociologists also study education and how it is impacted by a society's culture and structure. The purpose of education is to provide knowledge (facts, skills, cultural norms) to members of a society. In the United States, education teaches us not just skills, but also how to be effective citizens. Education transmits the dominant culture, ensuring that children understand cultural norms and values. Educational attainment impacts life outcomes—it affects our occupation, earnings, work conditions, and health. Thus, education is related to social inequality. We have a tendency to assume that education is an equalizer in the United States, but this is something that is debated by sociologists. Is education equally available to everyone? Studies suggest it is not. Social class can impa.

Milgram (1963) examined conformity and obedience and found that people are highly influenced by authority and the demands of conformity, even to the point that we will inflict pain on another person to obey authority.
Sociologists also study education and how it is impacted by a society's culture and structure. The purpose of education is to provide knowledge (facts, skills, cultural norms) to members of a society. In the United States, education teaches us not just skills, but also how to be effective citizens. Education transmits the dominant culture, ensuring that children understand cultural norms and values. Educational attainment impacts life outcomes—it affects our occupation, earnings, work conditions, and health. Thus, education is related to social inequality. We have a tendency to assume that education is an equalizer in the United States, but this is something that is debated by sociologists. Is education equally available to everyone? Studies suggest it is not. Social class can impa.

Discussion 1: Sara Parker and Ethics
One of the reasons there can be so much debate about ethical issues is because ethics are opinions informed by people's values and people have different values. People can disagree about whether or not something is unethical, and, oftentimes, there is no right answer. In order to make decisions about what may be ethical or unethical, Yegidis (2012, p. 29) suggests focusing on these three questions:
"Who should benefit or suffer from the actions of the researcher?"
"Whose rights should take priority over those of others?"
"Does the end (increased knowledge) justify the means (the methods used to acquire it and their potential for harm)?"
For this Discussion, view the Sessions episode on the Parker family. As you do so, consider which, if any, ethical mandates or standards were violated.
·
Post
a response explaining your reaction to the Parker episode.
·
Be sure to address whether or not the social worker violated any ethical mandates or standards.
·
Also explain which strategies could have been used to guide ethical practice.
·
Finally, describe the responsibility of the social workers in the Parker case.
Please use the resources to support your answers.

Program Transcript
SOCIAL WORKER: Well, I think we should wrap things up. Does this same time
work for you next week?
SARA: Yes, it's fine.
SOCIAL WORKER: Let me give you an appointment card. By the way, something occurred to me that might interest you. I have a colleague that's doing a study on the impact of hoarding on family members. She wants to identify potential interventions. I think she'd love to talk to you and Stephanie.
SARA: Talk to me?
SOCIAL WORKER: She's paying participants in her study. I don't know how much.
SARA: Do I have to do it? I-- I just don't like people knowing my business.
SOCIAL WORKER: It's totally confidential and anonymous.
SARA: I don't know.
SOCIAL WORKER: I think it'd be a great opportunity for you.
SARA: I don't know. Would she have to come see my home? I mean, I don't like people seeing how I live.
SOCIAL WORKER: Don't worry about that. You should at least talk to her. Like I
said, there's some money in it for you. Can I give her your number?

One of the most important ways we can strengthen our relationships w.docx
One of the most important ways we can strengthen our relationships with others is to show our respect by actively listening. By the same token, when we feel heard, we also tend to feel respected. Thus, it is helpful to learn the essential skills of being a good listener, allowing us not only to listen actively, but also model that process to others and be able to ask them to do the same for us. Here are the steps to active listening:
Listen to understand (rather than to formulate an answer/comeback).
Clear your mind and remain silent (offering visual and verbal feedback that shows you are listening).
Ask the person to expand or clarify (Tell me more... Could you give me an example? How did you feel... What happened next?).
Reflect the other person's thoughts and feelings (It sounds like.... Have I got that right?)

Competency
Assess the development of societal standards in relation to social media and how this can alter social norms in everyday life.
Instructions
The prevalence of social media has had a huge impact on society in the area of how we tend to relate to each other and on what is considered to be normal in general. Taking a look at the ways in which social media changes attitudes and "norms" makes for an interesting study, and one that is applicable to understanding how society is slowly changing over time.
For this assignment, you will first conduct your own research on the effects of social media on societal norms (Part 1), then you will examine what has been found through previous research conducted by others (Part 2).
Part 1:
Compare and contrast the attitudes of two cohorts of people; one that consists of five people that rarely use social media and one cohort of five people that uses social media 2 or more hours a day.
Create a list of five people that you know that use social media at least 2 or more hours per day. This group of people will make up your first cohort. Then create a list of five people that you know that either do not use social media or use it very rarely. Take into account age when creating the cohorts, and try to keep the ages as similar as possible between the cohorts. Keeping a certain level of consistency in the two cohorts will help to negate the potential effects of generational differences. Provide a brief description of each of the ten people you are going to interview divided into their respective cohorts.
In other words, list the five people in the social media at least 2 or more hours a day, and provide a brief description of each along with why you chose them. Then provide a list of the five people that rarely or never use social media, and provide a brief description of each along with why you chose them.
Interview the participants to learn the similarities and differences between the two cohorts as it relates to attitudes, lifestyles, and relationships. Write a two-page paper comparing and contrasting what you learned about the two cohorts. Be sure to relate your findings to cultivation theory and socialization theory in the paper.
Part 2:
Now you will compare your research with research findings through previous research conducted by others. Look up at least 3 articles in the Rasmussen Library that relate to the topic of social media and its impact on society. You are not limited to articles that are strictly written on the specific topic of social media and norms. Articles that are covering social media and society are available from a wide number of angles. After studying these articles, write a two-page paper on what you learned on the topic of social media and its potential impact on societal attitudes, customs, and norms.

The study of social movement reflects the social issues in differe.docx
The study of social movement reflects the social issues in different periods have faced. This work will focus on the Abolition Movement and the Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) social movements. Social movement are a result of general public consensus towards dealing with major social issues in the community. This work will study the historical background and ideals that supported the development of these two social movement. This is intended to show the correlation between their emergence and the key social issues that the community faced.The Abolition Movement emerged in an effort to end slavery in the country. It held that all people are created equal, and hence the practice of slavery was unacceptable. This movement existed in the 19th century when many people started publicly displaying dissatisfaction for the slavery practices in the country. It placed more pressure on the authorities to outlaw slavery (Martos, Wilson & Meyer, 2017). It would allow for increased debate about segregation and discrimination. The LGBT movement is much more recent. It was started with the goal of affording members of the LGBT community with the same rights and recognition of heterosexual members of the community. For many generations, people categorized as LGBT were shunned and discriminated against. This movement intended to overcome these limitations set on the community members. It was motivated by the need to end widespread homophobic, transphobic and biphobic attitudes in the American community (Lysack, 2012).It is interesting to observe these roles that these social movements played in American history. It is especially interesting to know how each relates to the social issues that affected the American public at different times in the country’s history.

Develop a 3-5 page outline of concepts you would like to apply to your own life and identify relevant scholarly sources that will help you with your application of concepts.
As you may have noticed as you have worked through earlier assessments, Sociology is applicable to our everyday lives. We can oftentimes take a sociological concept and use it to explain something that occurs in our own lives. For example, you have learned about norms and how we tend to follow the norms of a society. You can use that to explain how people behave when they are in an elevator. Most people face forward, look up at the numbers, and don't talk.
Many of your experiences can be analyzed using sociological concepts. For your final assessment, Assessment 6, you will complete a Sociology of Me and apply many of the concepts you have learned about in this course to your own life. For Assessment 5, begin to think about which concepts you would like to apply to your own experience, develop an outline, and identify appropriate resources. In order to complete this assessment, you will need to show your understanding of some additional concepts related to social structure, education, and technology/media.
We have learned how a society's culture can influence people. There are other elements in society, however, that also affect our decisions and behavior. Sociological research has found that in addition to culture, social structure and groups also significantly impact many of our individual choices. Our position in the social structure affects our behaviors, attitudes, and ideas. For example, an important element of social structure are groups. We belong to a variety of different groups. Decades of research have documented the impact of group conformity on the individual. Although people tend to often believe that they act as individuals and aren't impacted by others, research has found this is usually not the case. The Milgram experiment in your Resources is a great example. Milgram (1963) examined conformity and obedience and found that people are highly influenced by authority and the demands of conformity, even to the point that we will inflict pain on another person to obey authority.

I'm going to attempt to evalutate the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci. This is totally foreign to me and I feel vulnerable trying to answer these questions! Any help or better insight to this stuff would be much appreciated.
From the perspective of a descriptive critic I would comment on the lack of lines and use of shadowing to create separation. The colors are very muted throughout the piece with the exception of her skin. Her skin appears to glow in contrast to her clothes and the background giving the painting a lot of value (if I'm using that term correct)? Leonardo made her in the shape of an isosceles triangle with her shoulders turned slightly to give her a posed position and not a relaxed position (Jacobus & Martin, 2019).
From the perspective of an interpretive critic I would comment that it is the most famous piece of artwork in the world because of her unknown identity and smile. "It is thought to be of Lisa Gherardini, wife of a Florentine cloth merchant named Francesco del Giocondo," (Scailliérez, 2020). When Leonardo finished the painting, he gave the painting to France. The emotion responsible for her smile will always be a mystery and speculating on it never gets old. Leonardo also broke away from outlining images and used the technique sfumato which uses blending, layering, and transitions that are impossible to see (Mona Lisa, n.d.).
From the perspective of an evaluative critic I would comment that the form is fluid throughout the piece. Nothing sticks out in a bad way, Lisa just glows and her eyes are obviously the focus at first. Her gaze seems to captivate people and make people curious about her and what she's thinking. I would consider that point effective insight. This piece is obviously inexhaustable, has staying power in my own words, as it is studied in education and visited daily at The Louvre.

One of the main jobs of historians is to interpret the past by reviewing primary documents, scholarly secondary sources, and then creating an analysis of this research. After reading your text and reviewing the assigned materials, consider each of the following assessments of the Emancipation Proclamation. Do agree or disagree with each of the four statements regarding the Emancipation Proclamation? Why? Be sure to consider the context of the author in your analysis.
"The act makes clear that the lives of our heroes have not been sacrificed in vain. It makes a victory of our defeats." Ralph Waldo Emerson (1862)
"We show our sympathy with slavery by emancipating slaves where we cannot reach them and holding them in bondage where we can set them free." William Seward (1863)
"[The Emancipation Proclamation was] the central act of my administration [and] the great event of the nineteenth century." Abraham Lincoln (1865)
"I cannot swallow whole the view of Lincoln as the 'Great Emancipator.' Anyone who actually reads the Emancipation Proclamation knows it was more a military necessity than a clarion call for justice." Barack Obama (2005)
This assignment should be at least 300 words and contain your reactions or questions about some specific issue within the historical narrative which you find compelling. For full credit, your paper must not simply sum up the reading or repeat points made there. Rather, I’m looking for you to create your own interpretation, or discuss some original insight. Include citations as needed.

One of the examples I chose for my readings was, For Coloured .docx
One of the examples I chose for my readings was, “ For Coloured girls who have considered suicide/ when the rainbow is Enuf” by poet Ntozake Shanges. Shanges writes the excerpt in the first person. I enjoy writing stories in the first person. When writing in the first person everything is told intimately. The expert is about cruelty in a racist and sexist society. It is obvious from the name of the title the poet uses race to form an important part of the character’s identity. In the excerpt, she describes the lady that enters the stage as the “lady in Brown” and their racial identity and gender and only identified by their color have an effect, the perspective through which the readers experience all of the different narratives. Shanges uses common abbreviations and occasional derivations from traditional English as well as jargon and metaphors. This helps to reveal who the social group is. The use of language helps the protagonist express their feelings or explain their way of thinking. Shanges uses language that is very distinctive which makes the character’s voice very powerful. This excerpt has many similarities to the novel that I will be working on. The novel I will work on is in the first person and the theme is about discrimination and the injustices of human beings. I am happy I got a chance to read this excerpt, it was very powerful and gave me some ideas that I will most likely use for my novel.
Choose one example from the Module Four resources that you find most interesting. Discuss the influence of the narrative voice on your reading experience. Make sure to provide an excerpt that you think embodies the narrative voice used in your text.
In response to your peers, discuss how you could use this narrative voice in your own writing. For example, how might you apply techniques for using third-person limited point of view? How might you convey an unreliable, first-person narrator? Or do you think you could even use this type of narrative voice? If not, why not?
odule Three, you discussed methods of structuring narrative. Module Four focuses on how that narrative is told (as in, through whose means of perception) as well as the characters that populate it. Character has been called the “most important” element of creative writing (Stern 96), while point of view has been called the most “complex” (Burroway 276). Both address the who—who tells the piece, and who it is about. Sometimes, the two are one and the same, as with the first-person central narrator who tells a story about himself or herself. Often, however, they are different entities entirely—a narrative written in third-person limited or third-person omniscient point of view tells a story about other characters, for example, and a first-person peripheral narrator tells a story from a secondary character’s point of view. But even when the character and point of view are distinctly separate, the two elements, like everything else in a creative work, are inextricably .
One of the many reasons social workers conduct needs assessment.docx
One of the many reasons social workers conduct needs assessment is to provide support for new programs. Social workers have many methods available to collect necessary data for a needs assessment.
Social workers can use existing data from a wide range of sources, including local and national reports by government and nonprofit agencies, as well as computerized mapping resources. Social workers can gather new data through interviews and surveys with individuals and focus groups. This data can provide the evidence that supports the need for the program.
To prepare for this Assignment, review the needs assessment plans that you and your classmates generated for this week’s Discussion. Also, review the logic models that you created in Week 7 and any literature on needs of caregivers that you used to generate them. Consider the following to stimulate your thinking:
Getting information about the needs of the target population:
Who would informants be?
What is your purpose for interacting with them?
What questions would you ask?
What method would you use (interview, focus group, questionnaire)?
Finding potential clients:
Who would informants be?
What is your purpose for interacting with them?
What questions would you ask?
What method would you use?
Interacting with the target population:
Who would informants be?
What is your purpose for interacting with them?
What questions would you ask?
What method would you use?
By Day 7
Submit
a 2- to 3-page paper outlining a hypothetical needs assessment related to the support group program for caregivers. Include the following:
The resources needed to operate this service
The program activities
The desired outcomes
A plan for gathering information about the population served
Justifications for your plans and decisions
A one-paragraph conclusion describing how you might conduct a follow-up to the needs assessment at the implementation stage of the program evaluation

one 2-3 page essay (typed and double-spaced). Your essay should have.docx
one 2-3 page essay (typed and double-spaced). Your essay should have a brief introduction followed by several paragraphs – one major point for each paragraph – and a short conclusion.
Topic:
Explicate this passage by Rose Schneiderman (it comes from Todd’s “Remembering the Unknowns”). You answer should include a brief discussion of Schneiderman, who she was and the context in which she was speaking. (You should find this information in the article and not on Wikipedia.) Who was she talking to when she made this speech? What does she mean when she says that public officials “have the workhouse just back of all their warnings”? Why does she say that she “can’t talk fellowship” with those who organized the meeting (and were sitting in the orchestra seats)? Your answer should include a discussion of social class.
I would be a traitor to those poor burned bodies if I were to come
here and talk good fellowship. . . . We have tried you citizens; we
are trying you now and you have a couple of dollars for the sorrowing
mothers and brothers and sisters by way of a charity gift. But every
time the workers come out in the only way they to protest against
conditions which are unbearable, the strong hand of law is allowed to
press down heavily upon us. Public officials have only words of warning
or us – warning that we must be intensely peaceable, and they have the
workhouse just back of all their warnings. The strong hand of the law
beats us back when we rise. . .. I can’t talk fellowship to you who are
gathered here. Too much blood has been spilled. I know from my
experience it is up to the working people to save themselves. And the
only way is through a strong working-class movement (Todd, 67).

On the tomcat drive in folder cosc210 you will find file named Paint.docx
On the tomcat drive in folder cosc210 you will find file named PainterStartup.zip. This file contains the source code for the start of a Painter program. In its current state, Painter can create boxes and text objects at given locations. Both boxes and text objects can be repositioned and resized using a mouse. The task is to add to the program the implementation for an oval, line, image, and group objects.
Instructions:
Add an oval object. An oval is very similar in implementation as the box, except it renders an oval instead of a rectangle. The oval can be repositioned by dragging the object to a new location. The oval can be resized by first clicking over the oval to display grab handles and then dragging a grab handle to a new position. The grab handles are to be rendered at the same positions as the box. Likewise, clicking anywhere in the smallest rectangle that encloses the oval performs selection.
Add a Line object. A Line is to be created by selecting a Line tool and then click and drag over the canvas. The line is rendered from the point of the initial click to the mouse pointer. On releasing the mouse the construction of the line object is completed. A partial implementation of a PtrDrawLine object is provided. You will need to fix the rendering, click over, and test for inside a rectangle.
A Line is selected by clicking anywhere over the line. Right now if you click anywhere in the rectangular region hold the line, then the line is selected. The implementation is in the isOver method. This needs to be fixed to only select when the click is on the line.
Given below is a partial solution to determine if a mouse click position (the x and y parameters to the isOver method) is over a line:
double ratio = (double) getDeltaY( ) / (double) getDeltaX( );
if (Math.abs(((x - getX( )) * ratio) - (y - getY( ))) <= 1) {
return true;
}
You need to modify this code when the y to x ratio is less than -1 or greater than 1. (hint: Inverse the roles of x and y)
The isInside method provides the implementation for determining if the line is inside a rectangular area as specified by the parameters. This code does not work right if the ending point of the line is to the left or above the starting point. Fix this to work in all cases.
Add an Image object. An Image object is created by selecting an Image tool and then clicking anywhere on the canvas. On clicking the canvas, a File Selection Dialog should be displayed. The dialog prompts for selection of .gif and .jpg files. On selecting a .gif or .jpg file and clicking “Open”, an Image object that renders the image of the selected file is created at the click position. Image selection and drag behaviors are the same as a Box object. The image object additionally renders lines at the edges of the image (as done in Box).
The code for displaying a File Selection Dialog is:
JFileChooser fileChooser = new JFileChooser();

On Human Capital (250 Words)
“The neoliberal understanding of human abilities as sources of potential income redefines child-rearing by treating a broader range of activities of care and cultivation, and not only educational and professional training, as potential ‘investments’ in the human capital of children.”
Susan Koshy argues that, under neoliberalism, parents understand that raising their children is about making investments in human capital. Have you experienced this in your own life? In what ways have your parents treated you like an investment? In what way have they treated you otherwise? How do you know the difference?

Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara
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. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Introduction to Quality Improvement Essentials
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

Observation Project Step 1SOCY 3119Qualitative Research Met.docx
- 1. Observation Project: Step 1 SOCY 3119 Qualitative Research Methods Online Observation Project, Step 1 Propose in 1-2 pages a qualitative research project on a topic that you would like to investigate using participant observation. Keep in mind this is a brief assignment, no more than two pages. Choose a site that is interesting to you and reveals something to us about the social world and is sociologically relevant. Sociological relevance can be operationalized in this project by looking at gender dynamics, racial dynamics, family formation and experiences, health experiences, power relationships (this is just a short list). Sociology is broad! Observation Project, Step 1 The proposal should include at a minimum: a paragraph explaining your topic, its sociological relevance, and the research question two paragraphs on sampling/site selection (which site? why that site? which role will you take? how will you gain access to it?) a paragraph reflecting on your relationship and if and/or how your presence may or may not impact the space and your observations --I need to be able to read enough to give you feedback about
- 2. the appropriateness of your sight for observation and its sociological relevance. Observation Project, Step 1 NOTE: For your observational research, you cannot select sites that will expose your participants or yourselves to unnecessary risk. I also discourage observation of any group that cannot give consent freely, this includes: Children in a classroom setting (they can assent, but you need their parents to give you consent and that would be too much work for this project). People with any kind of developmental disability People in prison, etc. Note: In general, including these groups in longer research studies is crucial for understanding the full human experience, but for a short-term class assignment like this, it presents ethical challenges. So what are some topics that students have proposed in the past? One set of topics that have been successful include those that focus on sites that are: Public places where people gather and consent may not be needed. Observing the dynamics of those places. Another set of topics that have been successful include those that focus on sites that are: Sites where you need to negotiate access with a gatekeeper and
- 3. get access to the site. Observing the experience of an individual or group in that setting. Public sites Observing the homeless and transient population in Civic Center Park. Research Question: How often do non-homeless persons ignore homeless persons, and what effect does that have on the homeless person? Attending the services of a church attending by primarily Vietnamese individuals and a separate service attended by White individuals: Research Question: How do cultural differences impact the experiences of people in church? Observing on public transportation: Research question: How do people with physical disabilities navigate public transportation. Gatekeeper sites (sites where you would need to get permission to observer) Observation of meeting like groups like Al-Anon (individuals close to those with substance abuse issues) Research Question: How do people navigate family relationships when someone in their family has a substance abuse issue. Observing an employee working in an interesting field Research Question: How do people in the technology industry navigate gender dynamics? Observation of an improv/comedy class. Research question: How do women navigate improv and comedy, a male dominated field
- 4. Other ideas People have observed social media sites and were interested in body image, gender dynamics. People have observed in bars and were interested in seeing who the bartender serves first With these types of projects (above), you may have to do more work to unpack the sociological relevance and to identify the research question. Final Thoughts I provided feedback on your Week 4 posts, where you shared your ideas. Please read that feedback! I will also give you feedback on Step 1. I give extensive feedback at this stage so that Step 2 and Step 3 are easier to navigate. If you have any questions about your idea, please reach out. Even a brief meeting or chat by email can help. The project is designed with these three steps, to provide you the opportunity to grow as a qualitative researcher. There is plenty of time between each step for us to make improvements, so please if you are feeling unsure or tempted not to submit, reach out!
