Part I. Overcoming Bias
I am a person who firmly believes that everyone is equal despite anything. The fact that one may be of a different color or religion does no affected me because I think that everyone is equal. Also, for people who come from a poor background, I feel like they should be considered to fit into society. My culture can affect my professional work, especially when working in an area that is sensitive to culture. It can have a affirmative impact on the people I labor with because they will learn to interact with others well. On the other hand, institutions where cultural diversity is not considered necessary, it will have a negative influence on me because expressing the difference would be difficult. I believe that every individual has a right to experience equality. Oppression is not suitable for individuals who are from a different culture or background. Also, people should not exercise bias in workplaces by making decisions that affect others and benefit themselves.
To be friendly and interact with people without fear despite their differences- an individual's behavior affects how they think (Gibson & Barr, 2017). For example, if a student walks up to me to ask a question, it is my role to be friendly to them to ensure that they do not fear to approach me another time. Also, for the students who come from poor backgrounds, it is essential to be friendly to them to ensure that they concentrate on their studies. It will help boost their performance because they will know that the teacher does not worry about the difference but in offering them quality education. Hanging out with people who have a positive attitude compared to mine- for example, being culturally insensitive can be eliminated by sensitive people. Interacting more with people who take into account all cultures can have significant influence on how I handle people from different cultures. To identify situations when the biases affect my behavior- when working with children in a class setup, it is essential to assess every student to know their strengths and weaknesses. Also, through observation, one can identify a student who is having difficulties in class and help them (Gibson & Barr, 2017). To avoid bias, concentrating on helping one child can affect others because they will feel that they are not necessary. Therefore, it is essential to focus on all the kids to ensure that equality is observed. Being biased affects one's behavior and attitude towards things.
The strategies chosen can help build a positive relationship between educators, children, and parents to ensure that every party is satisfied. Working with individuals who are not biased can help reduce biases. Being friendly can help children from a poor background to study well because of positive energy. It will help their parents to work hard to ensure that their kids study well. Also, people with a positive attitude can help in the development of the school so that it can account for all studen.
Part1 In order to be an effective early childhood educator an.docxssuser562afc1
Part:1
In order to be an effective early childhood educator and anti-bias advocate, it is necessary, first and foremost, to recognize and challenge one’s own biases. While this may not seem difficult on a surface level, there are, in fact, various strategies and practices for recognizing the overt and more subtle or covert biases one may possess.
In two to three pages, address the following:
· Describe yourself, including any relevant information about your own social identity and culture. Explain how your own identity and/or culture might influence your professional practice. If applicable, share your own experiences with privilege, oppression, and/or bias.
· Identify three strategies that you will use in order to explore and overcome your own biases.
· Explain why you chose these strategies and how exploring and overcoming your own biases can positively impact the children and families with whom you work.
Part:2
Bias and discrimination affect people from all walks of life. In the early childhood field, bias and discrimination are especially troublesome, as they can have long-term impacts that can continue to affect children through adulthood. Read Document #1: Madison Place Preschool Scenario prior to beginning Part II.
In three to four pages, complete the following:
· Describe four strategies that you will use in order to address bias and promote equity among the young children in your classroom.
· Explain why you chose these strategies, and how they will help address bias and promote equity.
· Describe how you will implement these strategies to advocate for positive social change on behalf of the children in your classroom.
· Describe one way you will partner with families and/or the community in your advocacy efforts.
Part:3
While advocating for access, equity, and change in early childhood classrooms is an important first step, early childhood settings support this advocacy effort on an organizational level.
In two to three pages, complete the following:
· Describe how you will advocate for anti-bias curriculum in your early childhood setting or one in which you might work.
· Explain why anti-bias curriculum should be adopted in in this setting.
· Explain why access and equity at the organizational level are important to developing early childhood programs that help promote the growth and development of children, families, and communities.
· Include a description of at least one organization with whom you might partner to promote access, equity, and social change for young children and families in your early childhood setting or one in which you might work, and explain why you have chosen this organization.
Part.4
In two pages, describe the significant and lasting impacts that access and equity can have on children, families, communities, and a global society.
Specifically, your response should include the following:
· An explanation of the benefits of advocating for access, equity, and change on children’s healthy development .

September 6th, 2022
Week 1/Post 1: Formulating Goals
1.
The two professional goals you developed related to anti-bias education and your work in an early childhood setting.
· Goal 1: Developing relationships to form inclusive communities in the classroom
· Goa1 2: Develop an awareness of how unconscious bias can impact the classroom.
2.
The ways in which the readings and media segment from this week have influenced the formulation of your goals. Be sure to support your comments with specific references to and/or examples from the Required Resources.
According to Walden University (2011) “The world today is a world in which children are going to grow up side-by-side with people who are very, very different from them. The notion of growing up in a community of people very much like you is gone” (pg. 1). I also came across a website “
Teaching Tolerance,” where it discussed critical practices for anti-bias education and teacher leadership. This article was about the importance of valuing and embracing multiple perspectives to reach the best and most comprehensive approach to leadership. The author suggests teacher leaders reflect on what they still don’t know and need to learn about something to seek out professional development for growth in those areas; the author really promotes the idea of having self-awareness to diminish bias and become culturally aware in teacher leader practices (Learning for Justice, 2022). Both the “Walden and Teaching Tolerance” sources are about the road and progression to becoming an anti-bias educator.
3.
The ways in which the implementation of these goals will help you to work more effectively with young children and families.
I aspire to be an anti-biased channel in which students will experience culture in a vast and more comprehensive way. Children’s experiences in education should teach the four goals of anti-bias education (i.e., identity, diversity, justice, and activism) and promote the ultimate goal of equality and social equity for all (NAEYC, n.d.). I am, the compilation of everything experienced in my life. With this, we are constantly growing, changing, adapting new view and discarding others. Each experience builds on the last to continue to reinforce the structure you are each day. As future educators, it is our job to be the future of knowledge. What we say, do, actions we take directly reflect what our students see. Choose your curriculum wisely, but choose your words even more carefully. Take the wealth of knowledge you and only your life has accumulated and share it with each class you have the chance to influence. Be the spark of change and the advocate to every child that walks through your door.

Response 1I think that knowledge of the diversity topic I ch.docxwilfredoa1
Response 1
I think that knowledge of the diversity topic I chose which was behavioral problems within special education is something that is extremely topical right now. Children are being kicked out of school when teachers are unprepared to deal with their behaviors, and they are sent down a negative trajectory. In my area, this is something that happens so often I’ve literally made a practice out of it. Oftentimes, these children are in need of loving boundaries and socio-emotional scaffolding, and very often they have parents that are practicing negative parenting which leads to a lot of different pathologies across the lifespan.
If I was able to come up with a program to train teachers how to deal with kids that are acting up in class, I think it would have a positive effect on the entire class and the school climate in general. Teachers would feel better and they would be able to be the masters of their domain as opposed to exhausted. Teacher burnout is related to kids that have behaviors! Then we have the kids – who endure a lot of suffering when they are targeted by teachers, as kids that are presenting behaviors are also displaying the underlying dynamics – the behaviors are just the symptom of the problem. We need to be able to attend to them on both the behavioral and emotional levels in order to really attend to behaviors and help them stay on a positive life trajectory starting from an early age.
The family part of the intervention is also critical, because we know that negative parenting can account for a part of the behavioral issue. Either parents aren’t equipped to handle children that are able to push boundaries or they engage in negative parenting themselves, and either way an intervention needs to happen on that front as well in order to keep consistency across environments. The intervention is two-art and would contribute positively to social change because it would be helping families and especially children that may otherwise end up in worse institutions in their lives.
Response 2
Explain how knowledge of the diversity topic you chose could be used to enhance a social change initiative for children and adolescents.
· The diversity topic of choice for me is gender identity. Children and adolescents that are faced with gender dysphoria encounter so much. Not only are they shut out by the community but some are even shut out by their parents and family members. The mesosystem includes the interrelations between the major settings in which the youths find themselves, and subsequently the impact of these interrelations upon the youth. Major settings in the mesosystem include local economy and work environments, government, religion, neighborhood, and mass media (Mustanski. 2014). When a child or adolescent is experiencing gender dysphoria, the number one thing the need is to be supported. There does not need to be any biased or judgment. They need to understand that they are not "different" from their peers. One way to.

CHAPTER 4
Building an Anti‑Bias Education Program: Clarifying and Brave Conversations with Children
Everything teachers do—setting up the learning environment; planning the curriculum; observing, assessing, and thinking about individual children; and so much more—rests upon establishing strong, caring, and trusting relationships with children and families. Without such relationships with their teachers, children find it hard to open up, to learn, to grow, to feel safe. These relationships are built onSeeing each individual child as a member of a unique family with many, often complex, social identities that shape their learning and ways of beingRespecting each child’s individual way of learning and being rather than imposing an expected behaviorKnowing how children learn to think and how they are, and are not yet, able to discern what is happening around themUnderstanding that children are in the process of learning at all times and that it takes many experiences before they master an idea or a behaviorListening carefully to each child to understand how each is making sense of experiences and/or behavior
An essential element in building strong relationships is your willingness to engage in conversations that support children’s sense of self, that let them know they are safe and honored exactly as who they are. Children live in a world that sends multiple, stereotype‑laden messages about their comparative value, their right to be visible, and how they are expected to behave based on their economic class, ethnicity, gender, abilities, racial identity, and religion. These overt and covert messages affect their own sense of self‑worth and how they think about people who are different. Avoiding conversations about identity and fairness is a disservice to children who are developmentally dependent upon adults to help them make sense of the complex and contradictory societal messages they receive.
When programs do not demonstrate respect for and acknowledgement of human diversity, children and families cannot feel truly seen or honored. When a teacher avoids directly addressing comments or behaviors that can hurt another child, no child feels safe. Keeping silent not only does not help children, it actively hurts them. Learning how to break this silence, how to talk about anti‑bias issues with clarity, courage, and caring, is an essential skill not only in the world of early childhood education but in the world at large. This chapter explores ways to build trusting relationships with children by directly talking about identity, diversity, injustice, and activism, which correspond to the four goals of ABE.The Hurtful Power of Silence
It is hoped that children will turn to their trusted adults when they are confused or are hurt by their experiences. But to do so, children need a vocabulary to describe what they are thinking. Too often, adults ignore children’s attempts to understand how people can be different from one another and yet the same. A Whit ...

Assignment
Developing Relationships
Community relationships are important in school success. Schools are often at the center of community activity and can be a significant source of pride to a community. Creating and sustaining this positive relationship is part of every educator’s work. This is especially true in communities where tax levy elections support the school. Establishing positive community relationships is the right thing to do. When people in the community work together on behalf of students, great things can happen. Part of establishing positive community relationships is “getting the message out” about the good things the school is doing in/for the community.
For this assignment, you are to take the part of a teacher who has been invited to speak for 10-15 minutes to a community group (your choice) to discuss the school, what students are doing in/for the community, and how the community can best support the school and its students.
Your presentation should be creative, engaging, and media focused. You may use the presentation software of your choice (Power Point, Present Me, Prezi, etc.). The length of the presentation should be sufficient to cover a 10-15 minute presentation. It is not necessary to use reference materials, but any reference materials cited should be cited/referenced according to APA as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center. Please be sure to include speaker’s notes in your presentation.

My Purpose
Advocating for young children should be a leader’s main priority to ensure that they become lifelong learners beyond the classroom. There are a plethora of ways to ensure success amongst young learners. Many leaders advocate for change in ways that they see as best or are passionate about. When someone is passionate about a particular change, they will do what is needed to promote change. I have always been passionate about closing the literacy gap amongst young readers. I have noticed that there is a major gap in literacy, especially in low economically challenged communities. I have taught second-grade EIP self-contained classrooms for years. Every year, I have heard from the administration that I should expect little to no growth from these students because they are too far behind or not capable of making real growth. I couldn’t believe what I heard because all children are capable of learning if given the necessary tools to succeed. Therefore, I am providing this professional development to give teachers tools for advocating for young children and supporting closing the literacy gap. This will hopefully change the mindset of all educators as well as administrators who believe children are just too far behind to catch up or able to learn.

Advocating for closing the literacy gaps amongst all children is important for children, families, professionals, and the field of early childhood education. By aiding in closing the literacy gap, it can support more children in becoming lifelong learners beyond the classroom and minimize the number of high school dropouts. It also teaches the students how to be resilient and bounce back from adversity. Furthermore, it can also provide families with peace of mind that their child is getting the best possible education and support needed to help their child at home.

Building Blocks Learning Center in Hansvale County

Changing Demographics
The dynamics in the demographics of Hansvale County are greatly affecting the development of the center. The main demographic changes that were experienced in Hansvale County that positively or negatively affects the progress of the center include racial changes, cultural changes, as well as linguistic changes. Thank you for your introduction.
To start with, under racial changes, black mothers are likely to be in permanent employment as compared to white mothers. This is because, economically, the whites are relatively stable as compared to the blacks. The income disparities between the races determine which center, for instance, the child is taken to during his or her earlier childhood development. Therefore, from the demographic representation in one of the public elementary school in Hansvale County, shows that the white students are the leading with 40%, chances are that the majority of them comes from the less fortunate white families in terms of income. I would encourage you to provide a citation here. The building blocks learning centers are usually associated with the Blacks and Asians as well as Hispanic children. From the chart, it is clear that Blacks have 27% of the total population of children, followed by Asians with 20% and finally Hispanic with 13%. With many of the children being from relatively low-income families, raising of capital to facilitate the development of the center in terms of infrastructure, more importantly, the expansion of classrooms due to the increasing population becomes a challenge for this center (Lai, 2015). Good overview.
Secondly, the issue of cultural changes has negatively on the operations of the center. Every parent tends to take his or her child to a center, which favors his or her cultural belief. For instance, from the information collected from one of the public elementary school in Hansvale County, it was unfortunate that there was no Indian student in the school. It is not that there are no Indian children living in the County, their absence from the school is associated with cultural differences. Either, Muslims tend to take their children to Muslim norms supporting centers the same applies to Christians. This has negatively affected the center’s ability to implement educational equality policies. Either on the positive side of culture impact to the center, the This is a little confusing – which Center are you referring to? center has been named as the best center for spreading the diversity of cultures in the society for it recognized all cultures through its well-structured organizational cultural policies (Sharma, & Bothra, 2017).

The Value of Diversity As this weeks Learning Resources attest to.docxteresehearn
The Value of Diversity As this week's Learning Resources attest to, the United States is more diverse now than it has ever been, and this trend will only continue in the future. However, the multicultural society that exists today does not necessarily guarantee that children and adolescents grow up in diverse environments. Many towns, cities, neighborhoods, and schools around the country remain relatively homogenous, whether it be racially, ethnically, religiously, socioeconomically, or all of the above. Children who grow up on Native American reservations, or in ethnic enclaves such as Korea Town or Little Italy, for example, may have little exposure to children of other races and ethnicities. Youths who attend religious schools might be less likely to make friends with children of different faiths. Yet, at the same time, children and adolescents' awareness of and exposure to diversity remains a priority for many parents, caregivers, teachers, and community leaders. Some parents, for example, intentionally move to ethnically diverse neighborhoods and enroll their children in schools with diverse ethnic, racial, and religious make-ups. Teachers often infuse multiculturalism into their lessons or encourage students to study foreign languages. Exposure to concepts related to diversity and to diverse environments is considered, by many, to have significant, inherent value, particularly for young people. In this Discussion, you will consider what specific benefits exposure to diversity can bring to children and adolescents, and given these benefits, what place diversity should play in their lives. Reflect on the following: •Do you think exposure to diversity benefits children and adolescents in measurable and/or significant ways? If no, why not? If yes, why, and what are these benefits? What challenges might children and adolescents who are not exposed to diversity face that others may not? •Given your thoughts in response to the question above, how do you think the issue of diversity should be approached by parents, caregivers, teachers, and/or community leaders? For example, should parents seek out diverse environments for their children? Or, is living in an ethnic neighborhood or sending children to a religiously-affiliated school simply a way to embrace one's own cultural identity? Is there a middle ground? With these thoughts in mind, follow the instructions below to post your response to this Discussion topic.

Commitment of Professionalism 2
A great passion of mine is to advocate for child abuse and neglect. Research shows that
child abuse and neglect is a critical issue because it happens daily. The focus of my advocacy
efforts is child abuse and neglect as I am passionate about the well-being and safety of all
children. I would like to address the issue of abuse and neglect of children by their caregivers or
any adult figure. Although some parents may have the means to provide adequate resources, they
oftentimes fail to satisfy areas of needs with children that include but are not limited to
compassion, respect, access to learning resources, proper food and clothing, protection and
safety, good moral character development, love and much more.
An example of a policymaker I would consult would be the Department of Children and
Families (DCF). The Department of Children and Families would be first on my list to contact as
they are easily accessible and ready for contact as they deal with child abuse, exploitation, and
neglect directly. Furthermore, the Department of Children and Families are always open to
providing information that will be useful on the topic and assistance with furthering knowledge
on the processes and issues with child abuse and neglect. The strategies that will be used to gain
support from the Department of Children and Families would include formally arranging a

Developing Relationships
Community relationships are important in school success. Schools are often at the center of community activity and can be a significant source of pride to a community. Creating and sustaining this positive relationship is part of every educator’s work. This is especially true in communities where tax levy elections support the school. Establishing positive community relationships is the right thing to do. When people in the community work together on behalf of students, great things can happen. Part of establishing positive community relationships is “getting the message out” about the good things the school is doing in/for the community.
For this assignment, you are to take the part of a teacher who has been invited to speak for 10-15 minutes to a community group (your choice) to discuss the school, what students are doing in/for the community, and how the community can best support the school and its students.
Your presentation should be creative, engaging, and media focused. You may use the presentation software of your choice (Power Point, Present Me, Prezi, etc.). The length of the presentation should be sufficient to cover a 10-15 minute presentation. It is not necessary to use reference materials, but any reference materials cited should be cited/referenced according to APA as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center. Please be sure to include speaker’s notes in your presentation.

As you go through the presentation, you all will understand my purpose for conducting this professional development. I will provide a general overview of why following each step is imperative to closing the literacy gap. I will discuss how teaching resilience, building relationships, building culturally responsive classrooms, and RTI supports closing the literacy gap among young children. Finally, resources will be provided in order to support educators in closing the gap.

Building Culturally Responsive Classrooms
My Purpose
Advocating for young children should be a leader’s main priority to ensure that they become lifelong learners beyond the classroom. There are a plethora of ways to ensure success amongst young learners. Many leaders advocate for change in ways that they see as best or are passionate about. When someone is passionate about a particular change, they will do what is needed to promote change. I have always been passionate about closing the literacy gap amongst young readers. I have noticed that there is a major gap in literacy, especially in low economically challenged communities. I have taught second-grade EIP self-contained classrooms for years. Every year, I have heard from the administration that I should expect little to no growth from these students because they are too far behind or not capable of making real growth. I couldn’t believe what I heard because all children are capable of learning if given the necessary tools to succeed. Therefore, I am providing this professional development to give teachers tools for advocating for young children and supporting closing the literacy gap. This will hopefully change the mindset of all educators as well as administrators who believe children are just too far behind to catch up or able to learn.

Building Relationships
Advocating for closing the literacy gaps amongst all children is important for children, families, professionals, and the field of early childhood education. By aiding in closing the literacy gap, it can support more children in becoming lifelong learners beyond the classroom and minimize the number of high school dropouts. It also teaches the students how to be resilient and bounce back from adversity. Furthermore, it can also provide families with peace of mind that their child is getting the best possible education and support needed to help their child at home.

Building Blocks Learning Center in Hansvale County

Changing Demographics
The dynamics in the demographics of Hansvale County are greatly affecting the development of the center. The main demographic changes that were experienced in Hansvale County that positively or negatively affects the progress of the center include racial changes, cultural changes, as well as linguistic changes. Thank you for your introduction.
To start with, under racial changes, black mothers are likely to be in permanent employment as compared to white mothers. This is because, economically, the whites are relatively stable as compared to the blacks. The income disparities between the races determine which center, for instance, the child is taken to during his or her earlier childhood development. Therefore, from the demographic representation in one of the public elementary school in Hansvale County, shows that the white students are the leading with 40%, chances are that the majority of them comes from the less fortunate white families in terms of income. I would encourage you to provide a citation here. The building blocks learning centers are usually associated with the Blacks and Asians as well as Hispanic children. From the chart, it is clear that Blacks have 27% of the total population of children, followed by Asians with 20% and finally Hispanic with 13%. With many of the children being from relatively low-income families, raising of capital to facilitate the development of the center in terms of infrastructure, more importantly, the expansion of classrooms due to the increasing population becomes a challenge for this center (Lai, 2015). Good overview.
Secondly, the issue of cultural changes has negatively on the operations of the center. Every parent tends to take his or her child to a center, which favors his or her cultural belief. For instance, from the information collected from one of the public elementary school in Hansvale County, it was unfortunate that there was no Indian student in the school. It is not that there are no Indian children living in the County, their absence from the school is associated with cultural differences. Either, Muslims tend to take their children to Muslim norms supporting centers the same applies to Christians. This has negatively affected the center’s ability to implement educational equality policies. Either on the positive side of culture impact to the center, the This is a little confusing – which Center are you referring to? center has been named as the best center for spreading the diversity of cultures in the society for it recognized all cultures through its well-structured organizational cultural policies (Sharma, & Bothra, 2017).
Finally, the linguistic changes in the County also affect the center in different ways. From th.
The Value of Diversity As this weeks Learning Resources attest to.docxteresehearn
The Value of Diversity As this week's Learning Resources attest to, the United States is more diverse now than it has ever been, and this trend will only continue in the future. However, the multicultural society that exists today does not necessarily guarantee that children and adolescents grow up in diverse environments. Many towns, cities, neighborhoods, and schools around the country remain relatively homogenous, whether it be racially, ethnically, religiously, socioeconomically, or all of the above. Children who grow up on Native American reservations, or in ethnic enclaves such as Korea Town or Little Italy, for example, may have little exposure to children of other races and ethnicities. Youths who attend religious schools might be less likely to make friends with children of different faiths. Yet, at the same time, children and adolescents' awareness of and exposure to diversity remains a priority for many parents, caregivers, teachers, and community leaders. Some parents, for example, intentionally move to ethnically diverse neighborhoods and enroll their children in schools with diverse ethnic, racial, and religious make-ups. Teachers often infuse multiculturalism into their lessons or encourage students to study foreign languages. Exposure to concepts related to diversity and to diverse environments is considered, by many, to have significant, inherent value, particularly for young people. In this Discussion, you will consider what specific benefits exposure to diversity can bring to children and adolescents, and given these benefits, what place diversity should play in their lives. Reflect on the following: •Do you think exposure to diversity benefits children and adolescents in measurable and/or significant ways? If no, why not? If yes, why, and what are these benefits? What challenges might children and adolescents who are not exposed to diversity face that others may not? •Given your thoughts in response to the question above, how do you think the issue of diversity should be approached by parents, caregivers, teachers, and/or community leaders? For example, should parents seek out diverse environments for their children? Or, is living in an ethnic neighborhood or sending children to a religiously-affiliated school simply a way to embrace one's own cultural identity? Is there a middle ground? With these thoughts in mind, follow the instructions below to post your response to this Discussion topic. By Wednesday: Post an explanation of your thoughts on the value of diversity in the lives of children and adolescents. Explain to what extent you think growing up in a diverse environment and/or being exposed to diversity at a young age benefits children, and why. In light of these thoughts, explain how you think the issue of diversity is best approached by adults who care for and work with children and adolescents.

Philosophy of Inclusion Research Support
It is not enough to simply feel a personal obligation to include students with disabilities within general education environments. Sometimes, being a special education teacher involves persuading others to see the benefits of inclusion as well as how it can be successfully implemented to create a safe and positive learning environment to promote the well-being of students with disabilities.
Use the "Philosophy of Inclusion Research Support Template" to complete this assignment.
Support your findings with a minimum of three scholarly resources.
While APA format is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines (TEMPLATE ATTACHED).

Philosophy 2582 - Media Ethics: Paper 1 (Noam Chomsky)
June 17, 2018 by 11:59pm
*Policy on Late Papers
I will accept your paper within one week of the due date but in this case I may not have
time to provide extensive feedback.
Papers submitted on time will be marked and returned within two - three weeks of submission.
If you have a good reason for submitting your paper after the deadline please let me know in
advance. You may be asked to provide a doctor’s note or other support documentation.
Instructions
1. Submit this paper through the Dropbox feature of the course. To access this, click on
Dropbox in the grey, horizontal menu near the top of the screen.
2. Ideally, the paper should be submitted as a file in RTF or Microsoft Word format.
Please do not submit files in WordPerfect (.wpd) or Microsoft Works (.wps) format since I will
have a hard time opening these files. If you use one of these programs, please convert your file to
RTF or Word format. You should also avoid PDF files since I need to be able to insert comments
into your paper.
3. Please include your name in the title of the file you submit (i.e., the file should be called
something like “JohnSmithEthicsPaper.doc”).
4. Please read the policy on late assignments (above) carefully.
Length: 1500 - 2000 words
Topic
If it is helpful, you can divide your paper into different sections.
Watch the Documentary Manufacturing Consent Noam Chomsky and the Media. Here is the
link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBhBfa6gK60
What, according to Chomsky, is manufactured consent, and what role does the media play in
manufacturing it? Discuss with reference to two (or more, if you like) pieces of current news
media (either print media or image/video based.
What is intellectual self-defense? What are some of the ways we can foster our own intellectual
self-defense? You may find the article “The Importance of Intellectual Self-Defense” – found in
the Readings and Assignments area – helpful with this section of your paper.
In your paper, please briefly address why these issues are ethical in nature. Part 1 of Unit 1 will
be helpful here.
Secondary Sources
Please use ONE outside text source on Chomsky in this assignment (scholarly article either
online or from a journal in the library - text, interview, etc.) Please do not use Chomsky himself
– but another writer/theorist. This is to help you understand some of the concepts involved here,
and also to help you understand that Chomsky’s views are often challenged.
Writing Advice
1. Never underestimate the importance of structure. Consider preparing an
outline of your paper either before you write it or when you are in the process of revising
it. If you can't give a clear, step-by-step breakdown of what you're trying to accomplish in
the paper, it's probably not a very good paper. You should also remember the importance
of a good, clear introduction a.
Pick a large company you like. Find their Statement of Cash Flow.docxssuser562afc1
Pick a large company you like. Find their Statement of Cash Flows on their latest annual report, (not a summary, but the actual financial statement).
Describe the three sections of cash flows and what they involve.
For each section, tell us the total amount, if it is positive or negative, and analyze what each one tells you about the company.
Upon studying its statement of cash flows, what does this combination of cash flows suggest to you about the firm?
Is there any additional information that you would like to see to better understand this company? If so, what?

Paper Guidelines

Paper #3: Chinese Philosophy
You may choose to write about either Confucianism (A) or Daoism (B).
(A) Confucianism: Kongzi (Confucius) or Mengzi (Mencius)
Choose a passage from one of the primary Confucian texts that we read: The Analects or
The Mengzi. Whatever you choose, you must confine your essay to one of our authors’
texts: either Confucius’ Analects or Mencius’ Mengzi. You may choose any passage you
like but you may only write within the context of one of the two thinkers.
and
Analyze and explain it as thoroughly and precisely as you can, staying close to the text
of the author you choose (using its terminology, following its reasoning, etc.). This point
is important: refer to, quote, paraphrase, and cite Confucius’ or Mencius’ text—his words, his
terms, his explanations, his examples, etc.—to aid your explanation of the idea. The closer you
stay to the text, the clearer your explanation will be.
(B) Daoism: Laozi or Zhuangzi
Choose a passage from one of the primary Daoist texts that we read: The Daodejing or
The Zhuangzi. Whatever you choose, you must confine your essay to one of our authors’
texts: either Laozi’s Daodejing or Zhuangzi’s Zhuangzi. You may choose any passage you
like but you may only write within the context of one of the two thinkers.
and
Analyze and explain it as thoroughly and precisely as you can, staying close to the text
of the author you choose (using its terminology, following its reasoning, etc.). This point
is important: refer to, quote, paraphrase, and cite Laozi’s or Zhuangzi’s text—his words, his
terms, his explanations, his examples, etc.—to aid your explanation of the idea. The closer you
stay to the text, the clearer your explanation will be.
Note on Daoism: Remember that these specific texts are notoriously opaque and
mysterious, and their purpose seems to be, quite explicitly in some cases, to effect an
experiential change in thinking on the part of the reader. So, if you choose this option, give
yourself time to let the text affect you and wash over you. It is common that the sense of
particular passages vacillates and shifts as one reads them again and again. So try—
without trying, of course (i.e., in a wu wei fashion)—to give yourself ample room to
maneuver within the text’s mysterious spaces, as Zhuangzi’s butcher’s blade
maneuver’s freely within the heavenly contours of the ox’s carcass.

In these papers, I want you to try to capture the essence of what you choose. You might
imagine that what you are trying to do is teach someone what passage means within the
context of Confucianism or Daoism.
I am looking for in-depth and detailed analysis/explanation.

As an instructor, one of my greatest joys is sharing this sense of order with others. (p. 174)WARNING: Avoid over-using block quotes in papers. Keep quotations, especially block quotes, to a minimum. Instead, use summaries and paraphrases whenever possible.

Following contents are the plan in execution.[1] - Cycle Inventory
Advantages/Reasons for Theia Having a Cycle Inventory
· Average amount inventory used to satisfy demand between shipments → allows Theia to take advantage of economies of scale
· Allows Theia to minimize total inventory costs
· Theia should keep the cycle inventory as low as possible to save money on shipping and storage of inventory costs. → key aspect to maximize profit
· Facilitates the balance of supply and demand for Theia’s products by allowing SPC to satisfy customer demand based on forecasts
· Implementing optimal quantity of inventory to receive from suppliers per each shipment/order allows Theia to minimize holding cost of inventory and transportation cost
· Overall, having a cycle inventory will allow SPC to reduce costs, therefore maximizing their profits

Cycle inventory is the average inventory needed to meet customer demand between the order time and when the supply arrives.
Costs are part of the equation due to inventory storage expenses.
⇒ Therefore, we need to know the annual demand of our product as well as the material cost, shipping cost, and holding cost:
Demand (D) = Annual demand (obtained through forecasting) Year 4
2,504,131 Smart Glasses
Cost (C) = Price paid by the manufacturer to the supplier for 1 unit of supply
$300
Inventory holding cost (h%) = cost of holding $1 of inventory for 1 year.
0.1
Fixed Ordering Cost (S) = cost of placing the order and labor for receiving.
$3000
Lot Size (Q) = Number of units in 1 lot of shipment (quantity per shipment)
QL*= √
QL* = √
QL* =12920.6
The amount Theia should load onto each truck is about 12,920.6 Smart Glasses per shipment to minimize total cost based on forecasted demand for year 4. (Efficiency)

Phil 2101 Final PaperGuidelines Approximately 5 pages, doubl.docxssuser562afc1
Phil 2101: Final Paper
Guidelines: Approximately 5 pages, double spaced, 1” margins, 12 pt. font, to be submitted in hard copy at the time of the final exam.
In explaining each author’s respective arguments, you should use quotes from the text, to justify your attributions. However, no outside sources should be used.
No, bibliography is required, however, you should note in parentheses the page on which the quoted material is found (in either edition of the text).
Ex: Nagel claims that arguing that evil is only the absence of good will not help to dispel the problem, for “facts are not altered or abolished by rebaptizing them” (p. 91).
At least one page of the paper should be dedicated to your defense of the final question of each option.
Option 1: Are there rational grounds for belief in God despite the existence of evil? Critically
evaluate Nagel's argument for atheism against Swinburne's theodicy. Does Swinburne provide a sufficient response to the problem of evil in your view? Why or why not? Defend your answer.
Option 2: Are human beings free and responsible agents? Weigh the argument for hard
determinism (discussed by Ayer) against either Ayer or Frankfurt's soft determinist response and the libertarian argument posed by Taylor. Who has the best argument, in your view, and why? Defend your answer.
Option 3: Mill alleges that morally correct actions are those that result in the greatest happiness for all affected? Is this true? Consider the objections to utilitarianism raised by the problem cases in Williams's "Critique of Utilitarianism" and/or the so-called Trolley Problem. Are these real problems for the theory or does the Utilitarian get the answer right even in these difficult cases? Defend your answer.
NOTE: All papers submitted in hard copy are scanned and uploaded in .pdf format to TurnItIn for archiving and plagiarism detection purposes. It is your responsibility to review the university guidelines on plagiarism prior to submission. Plagiarism will result in an automatic F for the class and initiation of BC disciplinary proceedings. DON’T RISK IT!

Perspectives on WarInstructionsAnalyze After watching .docxssuser562afc1
Perspectives on War
Instructions:
Analyze: After watching the news clip about the first Gulf War, analyze the points made in the news clip and answer the following questions:
How do Americans know about the Gulf War, in which very few Americans actually took part?
How do people know about experiences and events outside of their own individual reality?

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

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.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

Part I. Overcoming Bias I am a person who firmly believes that e.docx
1. Part I. Overcoming Bias
I am a person who firmly believes that everyone is equal
despite anything. The fact that one may be of a different color
or religion does no affected me because I think that everyone is
equal. Also, for people who come from a poor background, I
feel like they should be considered to fit into society. My
culture can affect my professional work, especially when
working in an area that is sensitive to culture. It can have a
affirmative impact on the people I labor with because they will
learn to interact with others well. On the other hand, institutions
where cultural diversity is not considered necessary, it will have
a negative influence on me because expressing the difference
would be difficult. I believe that every individual has a right to
experience equality. Oppression is not suitable for individuals
who are from a different culture or background. Also, people
should not exercise bias in workplaces by making decisions that
affect others and benefit themselves.
To be friendly and interact with people without fear despite
their differences- an individual's behavior affects how they
think (Gibson & Barr, 2017). For example, if a student walks up
to me to ask a question, it is my role to be friendly to them to
ensure that they do not fear to approach me another time. Also,
for the students who come from poor backgrounds, it is
essential to be friendly to them to ensure that they concentrate
on their studies. It will help boost their performance because
they will know that the teacher does not worry about the
difference but in offering them quality education. Hanging out
with people who have a positive attitude compared to mine- for
example, being culturally insensitive can be eliminated by
sensitive people. Interacting more with people who take into
account all cultures can have significant influence on how I
handle people from different cultures. To identify situations
when the biases affect my behavior- when working with
children in a class setup, it is essential to assess every student
2. to know their strengths and weaknesses. Also, through
observation, one can identify a student who is having
difficulties in class and help them (Gibson & Barr, 2017). To
avoid bias, concentrating on helping one child can affect others
because they will feel that they are not necessary. Therefore, it
is essential to focus on all the kids to ensure that equality is
observed. Being biased affects one's behavior and attitude
towards things.
The strategies chosen can help build a positive relationship
between educators, children, and parents to ensure that every
party is satisfied. Working with individuals who are not biased
can help reduce biases. Being friendly can help children from a
poor background to study well because of positive energy. It
will help their parents to work hard to ensure that their kids
study well. Also, people with a positive attitude can help in the
development of the school so that it can account for all students
from different cultures. Even the students who do have
difficulties with English, having a bond with the educator can
help them develop more skills in the language. The families
whose children are in the school will be freer to communicate
the challenges they face with their children for help to ensure
that education runs smoothly. It will enable the school to
receive more students from diverse cultures because parents
know that the school is not biased.

CR003 PART 1 AND 2 PERFORMANCE TASK
Part I: Overcoming Bias
In order to be an effective early childhood educator and anti-
bias advocate, it is necessary, first and foremost, to recognize
and challenge one’s own biases. While this may not seem
difficult on a surface level, there are, in fact, various strategies
and practices for recognizing the overt and more subtle or
covert biases one may possess.
In two to three pages, address the following:
· Describe yourself, including any relevant information about
your own social identity and culture. Explain how your own
identity and/or culture might influence your professional
practice. If applicable, share your own experiences with
privilege, oppression, and/or bias.
· Identify three strategies that you will use in order to explore
and overcome your own biases.
· Explain why you chose these strategies and how exploring and
overcoming your own biases can positively impact the children
and families with whom you work.Part II: Addressing Bias and
Promoting Equity in Early Childhood Classrooms
Bias and discrimination affect people from all walks of life. In
the early childhood field, bias and discrimination are especially
troublesome, as they can have long-term impacts that can
continue to affect children through adulthood. Read Document
#1: Madison Place Preschool Scenario prior to beginning Part
II.In three to four pages, complete the following:
· Describe four strategies that you will use in order to address
bias and promote equity among the young children in your
classroom.
· Explain why you chose these strategies, and how they will
4. help address bias and promote equity.
· Describe how you will implement these strategies to advocate
for positive social change on behalf of the children in your
classroom.
· Describe one way you will partner with families and/or the
community in your advocacy efforts.Part III: Access, Equity,
and Promoting Change in Early Childhood Organizations
While advocating for access, equity, and change in early
childhood classrooms is an important first step, early childhood
settings support this advocacy effort on an organizational level.
In two to three pages, complete the following:
· Describe how you will advocate for anti-bias curriculum in
your early childhood setting or one in which you might work.
· Explain why anti-bias curriculum should be adopted in in this
setting.
· Explain why access and equity at the organizational level are
important to developing early childhood programs that help
promote the growth and development of children, families, and
communities.
· Include a description of at least one organization with whom
you might partner to promote access, equity, and social change
for young children and families in your early childhood setting
or one in which you might work, and explain why you have
chosen this organization.Part IV: The Positive Impacts of
Promoting Access, Equity, and Change
In two pages, describe the significant and lasting impacts that
access and equity can have on children, families, communities,
and a global society.
Specifically, your response should include the following:
· An explanation of the benefits of advocating for access,
equity, and change on children’s healthy development and
learning.
· An explanation of how advocating for access and equity in
early childhood classrooms and programs can benefit children,
families, and communities, and provide a specific example.
· A recommendation for developmentally appropriate learning
5. experiences for the following, with an explanation of how these
recommendations reflect the principles of developmentally
appropriate practice.
1. Three families arrive an hour after preschool starts on a
regular basis
2. Dual-language learners, most of whom are less fluent in
English than they are in their primary languages
3. Three children in your classroom seem to be behind their
peers developmentally. After meeting with the families, you
discover that they live in poverty and some adult members of
the family do not have high school diplomas
CR003 Access, Equity, and Promoting Change: Apply strategies
to promote access, equity, and positive social change for young
children, families, and the early childhood field.
Madison Place Preschool Scenario
Madison Place Preschool is a subsidized urban pre-kindergarten
program. You are a new early childhood professional at this
center, serving as a preschool teacher. You have a classroom
with 17 children.
Some initial observations regarding Madison Place Preschool
include:
· Three families arrive an hour after preschool starts on a
regular basis. This appears to cause resentment among some of
the families who believe that tardiness is a sign of disrespect
and that the late children are setting bad examples for their own
children.
· Approximately 20% of the children in your classroom are
dual-language learners, most of whom are less fluent in English
than they are in their primary languages. You have overheard a
