The differences among individuals, that distinguish or separate them from one another and make one as an unique individual in oneself, may be termed as individual differences.
Learning is most effective when differences in learner’s language, cultural, and social behaviour are taken into account.
A teacher should be sensitive to individual differences.
A teacher’s challenge is to acknowledge and celebrate the differences among children and work to maximize the growth in each child.
During my College Student Development course we were assigned to learn about a particular theory of our choosing to then teach the class. I chose to learn about Baxter Magolda's Epistemology Reflection.

Cultural Differences
Some main indicators of cultural differences are:
•Behavioral patterns: appearance vs. reality
•Non-verbal behavior: Gestures, signs, mimics
•Distance behavior: personal space vs. closeness
Behavioral Pattern
•If we don’t know anything about other cultures, we
tend to use stereotypes as our knowledge base –
Is this a right approach?
•What are stereotypes?
•Negative labeling of a certain group or culture
based on the actions and/or appearances of a
few individuals.
Non-Verbal Behavior
• Understood as the process of communication through
sending and receiving wordless messages.
• Language is not the only source of communication;
there are other means, including:
• Gestures and touch
• Body language or posture, facial expression and eye contact
• Object communication such as clothing, hairstyles or even
architecture and symbols
• Problems and conflicts can occur when expressing
gestures or facial expressions in other cultures –
messages can often be misinterpreted.
Distance Behavior
• The right personal distance when conducting business
shows respect and acceptance.
• Too much distance gives the impression of dislike and
discomfort.
• Too little will make the person draw back.
Diversity & Inclusion
Diversity refers to differences (such as age, gender,
ethnicity physical appearance, thought styles, religion,
nationality, socio-economic status, belief systems etc.)
Inclusion refers to the creation of opportunities and the
elimination of barriers that allow all people to
participate in and contribute to ideation, planning,
projects, programs, processes, teams, organizations,
social activities, fun or any other opportunity that hel.

Implicit Bias Training for Stanford University Residential EducationStanford University
This session will specifically focus on implicit bias. Our facilitators will define implicit bias and provide examples of how implicit bias can often materialize in the form of microaggressions. In a problem-solution approach, our facilitators will define and provide examples of micro-affirmations that we can use in our work with one another and students to build and sustain positive relationships.
Facilitators Eric Abrams and Jessica Notini will be joined by an Resident Fellow, Dr. Emelyn dela Peña, and a member of our professional staff, Associate Dean Orlando T. White. Their collaboration represents one of many great Resident Fellow/pro staff partnerships we’ve seen since the fall and look to continue as we work together.

Assignment
Application: Ethical and Cultural Considerations
After completing the study activities in this unit, discuss how you will apply two ethical principles and two cultural considerations to your pre-proposal assignment. The suggested length of this post is 300–400. This post needs to be supported with at least two references.
Response Guidelines
Respond to the posts of two peers, extending the discussion. Consider sharing a professional experience with using codes of ethics or describing a cultural consideration about which you still have questions. Each peer response needs to be supported with one reference

Peer Post
Sheperis, Young and Daniels (2010) explain how if a counselor and/or researcher does not engage in ethical research practices, then harm could come to the participants. This application of ethics extends not only to the data collecting portion of the research, but also the design of the study as well as the publication of the results (Sheperis, Young & Daniels, 2010). One ethical principle that will play a role in my pre-proposal is obtaining the signed informed consent from all participants. Since my research will be working with individuals who have been diagnosed with schizophrenia it will be important to make sure that the participants understand the informed consent and are competent to sign (ACA, 2014). The family members of the individual with schizophrenia should also confirm that they understand the informed consent and are competent to sign. No one will be allowed to participant if there is not consent, and understanding of the consent. Another ethical principle that will apply to my pre-proposal is ensuring the autonomy and safety of the participants (ACA, 2014). It is the responsibility of the researchers to ensure that all participants are treated fairly and given a chance to voice their thoughts, opinions, and concerns. If any participant has diminished capacity the researchers must protect those individuals from potential harm (Sheperis, Young & Daniels, 2010).
A cultural consideration for my pre-proposal falls within working with a group of participants that have a mental illness. It is imperative to ensure that the individuals who have been diagnosed with schizophrenia do not feel stereotyped or minimized in any way. In the publication of the results it is also important that the.

CONTEXT
Prejudice occurs all over the world, often contributing to violence, oppression, and other forms of harm. What are the distinctions between stereotypes, discrimination, and prejudice? When do stereotypes become prejudices? Racism and sexism occur across races, ages, genders, religions, physical appearances, sexual orientations, and so on. Prejudice creates emotional, physical, and economic harm to individuals, groups, and society as a whole. But what factors create prejudice, and how can prejudice be reduced? What role do media play in both maximizing and minimizing stereotypes and prejudices? By examining how prejudices are cultivated and the damage they cause, we can begin to see how we might overcome and prevent prejudice.
Groups
Anyone who has worked in teams knows the challenges of working as a team but also the synergistic accomplishments that come when the team works well together. The fact is that, as cultural animals, we are required to be part of groups of varying types and sizes. Social psychology seeks to answer important questions that assist us in und.

The Book of Joshua is the sixth book in the Hebrew Bible and the Old Testament, and is the first book of the Deuteronomistic history, the story of Israel from the conquest of Canaan to the Babylonian exile.
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

Slide 1: Title: Exploring the Mindfulness: Understanding Its Benefits
Slide 2: Introduction to Mindfulness
Mindfulness, defined as the conscious, non-judgmental observation of the present moment, has deep roots in Buddhist meditation practice but has gained significant popularity in the Western world in recent years. In today's society, filled with distractions and constant stimuli, mindfulness offers a valuable tool for regaining inner peace and reconnecting with our true selves.

Mindfulness may help reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes and obesity by reducing stress and improving overall lifestyle habits.
Slide 5: Impact of Mindfulness on Relationships
Mindfulness can help us better understand others and improve communication, leading to healthier relationships.
By focusing on the present moment and being fully attentive, mindfulness helps build stronger and more authentic connections with others.
Mindfulness teaches us how to be present for others in difficult times, leading to increased compassion and understanding.
Slide 6: Mindfulness Techniques and Practices
Focusing on the breath and mindful breathing can be a simple way to enter a state of mindfulness.
Body scan meditation involves focusing on different parts of the body, paying attention to any sensations and feelings.

1. Molly Haas Cowan, PsyD
John A. “Jay” Mills, PhD, ABPP
Jeanne M. Slattery, PhD
Positive Multiculturalism
as Aspirational Ethical
Practice: Concepts and
Applications
3. Our Goals
1. Use Code of Ethics to guide a multicultural practice;
2. Describe a positive multicultural approach, as well
as reasons for paying attention to multicultural
issues;
3. Recognize barriers to developing multicultural
competency; and
4. Identify strategies for teaching students to apply
accepted professional principles in determining
how or when to deliver services to multicultural
populations
4. Guidelines on multicultural education, training,
research, practice, and organizational change
Guideline #1: Psychologists are encouraged to recognize that, as
cultural beings, they may hold attitudes and beliefs that can
detrimentally influence their perceptions of and interactions
with individuals who are ethnically and racially different from
themselves.
Guideline #2: Psychologists are encouraged to recognize the
importance of multicultural sensitivity/responsiveness,
knowledge, and understanding about ethnically and racially
different individuals.
Guideline #3: As educators, psychologists are encouraged to
employ the constructs of multiculturalism and diversity in
psychological education.
Guideline #5: Psychologists strive to apply culturally-appropriate
skills in clinical and other applied psychological practices.
5. Today the nation is no longer divided along [racial]
lines, yet the Voting Rights Act continues to treat
it as if it were. –John Roberts (6/2013) www.nydailynews.c
om
6. Perceived racism(Norton & Sommers,
2011)
Blacks continue to indicate drastically poorer outcomes for Black
than White Americans: "from employment to police treatment, loan
rates to education," yet…
9. What do we see as racism? (Sommers &
Norton, 2006)
1. Discomfort/unfamiliarity (e.g., is uncomfortable
around Blacks; doesn't socialize regularly with Blacks)
2. Overt racism (e.g., discourages kids from playing with
Blacks; thinks Blacks are not suited for certain
professions)
3. Denial of problem (e.g., Thinks slavery was so long ago
it is unimportant to talk about; doesn't speak up or act
when someone else is racist)
• People of Color are more likely to identify subtle forms
of bias as racism
• White observers often respond to allegations of subtle
bias with skepticism or questions about ulterior motives
10. Barriers?
When:
• Attitudes are the result of personal experience
• Perceive self as an expert
• Expect a favorable outcome from status quo
• Attitudes are repeatedly expressed
• Stand to win—or lose—something due to the
issue
11. Barriers in classroom?
• Student anger/discomfort (Sweatt, Pedrotti, & Langner,
2013)
• May need to acknowledge/give up privilege
• Instructor background (Sweatt et al., 2013)
• Agenda?
• Lack of expertise?
• Lack of instructor knowledge and perceived self-assessed
expertise in content areas (Turner, Burnes, & Taylor, 2013)
• Often weaker student evaluations (Sweatt et al., 2013)
• Questions about what should be included
• Turner et al. did not assess religion/spirituality, for example
• Content or theory? (Turner et al., 2013)
12. White racial identity (Slattery & Park, 2011)
1. Contact
2. Disintegration
3. Reintegration
4. Pseudo-independence
5. Independence
14. Problem with self-reports (Banaji &
Greenwald, 2013)
1. White lies
• How are you?
• Do I look fat in these?
2. Gray lies
• Can you spare a dollar?
• Is Ms. X at home?
3. Colorless lies
• How may cigarettes do you smoke a day?
4. Red lies
• I love you.
4. Blue lies
• Did you go to church this week?

31. Recommendations
• In-class discussion, with films and lectures less
frequently identified (Pedrotti, 2013; Sammons &
Speight, 2008; Yi & Lee, 2013)
• Peer teaching may put face to issues (Sweatt et al.,
2013)
• Identifying the benefits for all members in, for
example, identifying oppression (Sweatt et al., 2013)
• Consider multiculturalism in terms of both minority
and majority group membership (Sweatt et al., 2013)
• Help students develop a model for working through
ethical decision making, using openness, tolerating
ambiguity, holding positions tentatively, and
becoming self-aware (Tjelveit, 2006)
32. Recommendations from our
experience
• Start where they are
• Foster sensitivity to signs of own biases
• Encourage empathy-inducing activities
• Exploration of aesthetic traditions from other
countries
• Direct engagement in perspective-broadening
activities
• Contact with situations that cause cognitive
dissonance
• Perform psychosocial histories of clients (seeing
beyond symptoms)
33. Andrea Yates
Resnick: And so you thought that your children,
all five of your children, somehow because of
what you saw as your defective mothering,
were not on the path of righteousness and were
stumbling. [Hmm] And did you feel then that it
was good for them or bad for them, if you in fact
threw them into the sea—or in a bathtub—in a
very real sense? What were you trying to
accomplish then when you did take your
children’s lives?
Yates: Maybe in their innocent years … God
would take them up.
Resnick: It would be their innocent years and
God would take them up? Is that what you
said?
Yates: Be with him. Uh huh.
Resnick: God would take them up to be with Him
in heaven? Is that what you mean? [Uh huh.] All
right. And if you had not taken their lives, what
did you think would happen to them?
Yates: Guess they would have continued
stumbling.
Resnick: And where would they end up?

Why is it difficult to see the role of race and culture? What barriers are there?Empathy for one party is always prejudice against another.– United States Senator Jeff Sessions (R-Ala), July 13, 2009 (cited in Norton & Sommers, 2011)
Norton, M. I, & Sommers, S. R. (2011). Whites see racism as a zero-sum game that they are losing. Perspectives on Psychological Science, 6(3), 215–218.we asked a large national sample of Black and White Americans (N +417; Mage = 50.3, SD 1/4 13.6; 57% Female; 209 White, 208 Black) to use a 10-point scale (1 =not at all; 10=very much) to indicate the extent to which they felt both Blacks and Whites were the target of discrimination in each decade from the 1950s to the 2000s.1Sommers, S.

Perspectives on Psychological Science6(3), 215–218."Perhaps the most problematic implication of these studies for intergroup relations is that those people who are most likely to think racist thoughts or commit racist acts are also the people least likely to see these attitudes and actions as racist…Those people who behave in racists way do not consider those acts tobe biased, then attempts at sensitivity training or other prejudice reductionefforts become more difficult. How can individuals learn to avoiddiscrimination if they are unable or unwilling to recognize it in their ownbehavior? How can two people-- or groups of people-- discuss andresolve accusations of racisms if they have drastically different ideas ofwhat racism is?" p. 134

During the contact phase, Euro Americans are unaware that race has an impact; when they do see the impact of race, they only see it superficially.Euro Americans in disintegration, like People of Color in dissonance, begin to discover that life is unfair, but are unable to make sense of apparently incompatible ideals (e.g., evidence of discrimination with ideals of fairness, honesty, and justice).During reintegration, Euro Americans have resolved this struggle, at least for a while, idealizing their own group while denigrating others. Often this requires selectively perceiving or distorting information (e.g., concluding “that is just the way life is”). These explanations and distortions help resolve the anxiety associated with recognizing injustice.Euro Americans begin to see both Euro Americans and People of Color as varying in “goodness” during pseudo-independence, although they fail to recognize either the privileged positions they hold or the oppressive factors that impact People of Color. They are unable to recognize that Euro Americans have some responsibility for race-related problems and their solution. Positive evaluations depend on a single (Euro American) standard of merit rather than a multiplicity of values.During independence, Euro Americans are increasingly able to recognize racism, think flexibly about their own and other races, and see other people subjectively and as varying rather than as objects in dichotomous categories. They recognize both oppression and privilege and, although they may not become activists, avoid oppressive acts.

The police responded to Gates's house after neighbor Lucia Whalen reported spotting 'two black males with backpacks' trying to gain entry to the home (Gates, returning home from a trip overseas, and his driver were contending with a stuck front door). The Cambridge Police Department reports, authored by Sergeant James Crowley and Officer James Figueroa, quote an incensed Gates yelling, 'This is what happens to black men in America!,' and, when asked by Crowley to speak with him outside the residence, Gates replied, 'ya, I'll speak with your mama outside.' A disorderly conduct rap was filed against Gates, but quickly dropped by prosecutors.Gates has hosted several PBS television miniseries, including the history and travel program Wonders of the African World and the biographical African American Lives and Faces of America., Director of the W.
