Assignment 3: Views on Diversity
Pablo believes that diversity is the most important issue in our culture, and that it is greatly underemphasized. On the other hand, Ralph rarely thinks of diversity, except when it is mentioned in the workplace. Monica is sensitized to multicultural issues because her parents are immigrants who still struggle with discrimination after being here for 20 years.
To obtain a cross-section of what people think about diversity, conduct five-minute interviews with three individuals you don't know well, and assess their views on diversity. You have been provided an
Informed Consent

This is to enable that the respondents demonstrate a clear understanding of the meaning and purpose of this assignment. While you are expected to use the informed consent form in keeping with ethical practices for data collection, you do not need to submit it to the instructor as part of the assignment.
Ask the respondents the following questions and record their answers:
When you hear the word diversity mentioned in the workplace, in the media, or in casual conversation, what meaning do you assign this term?
Does a particular race, ethnic group, or other minority group come to mind when you think of diversity? Does one of these groups pertain to you?
Do you think the majority of people in our culture:
Respect cultural differences among groups of people.
Show indifference to cultural differences.
Lack respect for cultural differences. Explain each choice.
If you were to make a suggestion about how our culture should handle diversity over the next decade, what would it be?
Compile your responses and write a brief reflection paper (two pages) on your findings. Specifically address the following issues:
What did you discover was the general attitude toward diversity in our culture?
Is diversity more associated with one race, ethnic, or other minority group than with others? If so, explain why this might be the case.

What was your experience of completing the implicit bias test? Which test did you choose,
and why?
Reflecting on the self-awareness test was interesting. It allowed me to think deeply to give a clear
and precise answer. The questions were occasionally considered but never asked how I might I feel
about a particular topic. I took the ADDRESSING-GSA- Self-Assessment test to recognize the
cultural characteristics of individuals. As social workers, it is essential to adapt and understand
people from all different cultural backgrounds. The result from the test shows what areas I was
more dominant in and what areas I was less dominant in. The results were not surprising to me,
and they gave me a better perspective of what areas I will need to learn and understand better.
Social workers need to be culturally competent, be self-aware of areas that exhibit bias, and be
willing to work on those areas.
What self-awareness themes have emerged so far in Week 1’s Discussion and this week’s
activities?
The self-awareness themes that have emerged from the discussions are reflecting on oneself and
digging deep to know yourself. As well as how do I perceive myself culturally and the dimension
of diversity? Reading through the learning recourses from the course in both weeks were a great
learning experience for me in addressing cultural, diversity and that is expected, especially since
this is the class that it is being taught. Learning the dynamics of culture and diversity will be a
great asset as the social work profession will be working with individuals of all backgrounds.
Identify a population that you are not comfortable with or would like to know more about;
this could be a population represented by the implicit bias test you took, but it does not have
to be.
I would say that I am comfortable with all types of populations. I work amongst a vastly diverse
group of people that I call my second family from home. The people that I would like to learn
more about are young adult and the elderly population. Young adults are at a critical development

themselves. Many of them are in the system and aging out. I often wonder what will be their next
step for their future. How will they get healthcare coverage for health check-ups? Where will they
live, and how safe are the areas where they reside? The elderly population is another group of
people that I would like to learn more about. They are considered vulnerable as some have to rely
on caretakers for their daily needs. Learning about these two different populations will gives ...

Numeric Grade: 22 / 30 pts
Letter Grade:
The following questions should serve as a guide for your entry:
· What is one group (racial, ethnic, sexual orientation, gender, religious, social class, etc.) with which you feel you can identify in terms of belonging to this group?
· Would you consider this group a majority or minority group? Why?
· How important is this group identity to you? If it is very important, what do you think makes it important? If it is not, why do you think it is not important to you?
· In what way or ways might this group identity help to shape your view of the world?
· How is your ability to be objective about minority-majority issues influenced, either positively or negatively by this group identity?
Comments:
Carl, you’ve done a very good job on your first journal entry and your application of the concepts of “machismo” and objectivity. See my comment on the definition of minority. Are Hispanics considered a minority only due to their numbers? Other relevant concepts that might apply to what you’ve written here might be symbolic interaction and cultural differentiation.
You needed to apply two theories this week. You might have used social identity theory to explain your feeling of comfort around those like you in terms of the ethnicity and social status. You might also have used Interactionist theory to explain the process of cultural transmission of Hispanic norms and values, especially those that apply to Hispanic males as well as to explain why skin color may be significant in the U.S. while it is not as significant in Latin American countries. Interactionists would also suggest that taking one’s time may be interpreted as being lazy in the US and this might result in conflict. Our culture shapes our perceptions and in turn, this influences how we react to those who are not like us in certain respects. Your APA format is very good overall. If the information cited is quoted material, then you also need to include the page number on which the quoted material is located.
As noted in the instructions, these journals are “practice” for the paper. They are meant to help you in applying concepts and theory, so be sure to follow my comments and the feedback I give you each week. Review the rubric below to see where you need to concentrate on improving your entries. If you do not understand something, please contact me. Thanks! Instructor C :-)
The ethnic group with which I feel I can identify in terms of belonging to this group is Hispanic. I would consider this group to be a minority group and so does society. Although Hispanics have grown significantly in numbers throughout the United States their numbers as far as population goes are still low in comparison to others in the United States[k1] . Hispanics have grown to be the largest minority group in the United States (Parrillo, 2011). Being Hispanic to me is very important. It signifies who I am and what I am about. One thing that makes this identi.

A variety of issues may be explored in the interview. The knowledge you gained from both parts of the Cultural Immersion Project as well as your sense of the person/couple you interview will guide you in how personal you can get with your questions. Cultural groups and individuals vary on how private they are. Use their feedback regarding what areas you can probe. If the person is very open, go deeper. If not, respect that cultural boundary and ask yourself why that boundary is there. Issues that you may wish to explore during the interview include, but are not limited to, the following:
· Early childhood experiences and parental values;
· Earliest memories of recognizing membership in a culturally different group;
· The role of religion/spirituality;
· Immigration experiences;
· Similarities/differences between couples’ interactions in the U.S. to couples’ interactions in the individual’s culture;
· School experiences as a member of a cultural minority;
· Experiences with subtle racism or discrimination;
· Experiences with overt racism or discrimination;
· Ways the person/couple chose his/her/their career(s) or made career choices;

Social responsibility includes intercultural competence, knowled.docxsamuel699872
Social responsibility includes intercultural competence, knowledge of civic responsibility, and the ability to engage effectively in regional, national, and global communities, including the workplace. These skills are rated highest as desirable skills among hiring managers.
Intercultural competence includes
:
Knowledge of your own culture and how it has shaped your world view.
Knowledge of significant characteristics of other cultures.
Awareness of differences and similarities in cultures.
Ability to adjust your actions to successfully interact with someone of another culture.
How do we continuously improve our intercultural competence? First, by understanding that intercultural competence is complex, and it requires growing and maturing in three areas: mind set, heart set, and skill set.
Mindset
is the domain where as we learn and engage with others, we recognize similarities and differences. A growth mind set requires self-awareness and cultural awareness.
Heart set
is the domain where we learn to acknowledge, appreciate, and accept cultural differences. There are six dimensions to your heart set:
Self esteem
Self-monitoring
Empathy
Open mindedness
Reserved judgment
Social relaxation
Listening
Skill set
involves our intercultural agility; the ability to adjust your actions to successfully interact with someone of another culture. Specific skills include message skills, appropriate self-disclosure, behavioral flexibility, and interaction management.

Discussion Stereotypes Categories and Concepts for Understandiclayrhr
Discussion: Stereotypes: Categories and Concepts for Understanding the World
Picture a teacher talking to a student. In the instant that you thought of the word
teacher
, what image of a person jumped into your mind? What were the age, color, gender, and nationality of the imagined teacher? What was the teacher doing and wearing? Similarly, what image of a
student
appeared in your mind to distinguish between the two people?
Humans understand the world by creating categories and labeling concepts and, in this way, apply the concepts in a new circumstance. Stereotypes fall into this category of labeling concepts. They provide a system of coding that facilitates the acquisition of knowledge. On the other hand, stereotypes often demean people by distorting individual characteristics, skills, and abilities. By classifying people based on perceived characteristics of a group, inaccuracies arise at individual and group levels. These inaccuracies about individuals or groups can inhibit effective communication. As an intercultural communicator, however, there are some instances when using stereotypes can be helpful in gaining a level of cultural competence.
To prepare for your Discussion:
Review Chapter 6 in the course text
.
Pay particular attention to the section on stereotyping and the list of cultural categories. Have you seen or heard anyone stereotype any of these cultural categories either in the media or in your own experience?
Locate common stereotypes about your culture on the Internet. Do any of them surprise you? What is true about these stereotypes? What is untrue?
Find three common stereotypes of your culture in the media, or, using the cultural categories in Chapter 6 of the course text, think of a personal experience where you were stereotyped by your membership in one of those categories. Do you feel you are stereotyped in specific ways by certain cultural categories?
Reflect on a personal experience or an example in the media where your culture has been stereotyped by another culture. How does stereotyping by the sender or receiver of the message in this situation affect the intercultural communication?
Note:
One of the goals of this course is to promote a wide variety of views. You are encouraged to present your honest personal viewpoint while at all times reflecting a respectful tone for the views of others.
Do
a 2 paragraph description of two examples of a stereotype of your culture that is found in the media or that you experienced personally. Explain the effects that true and untrue aspects of the selected stereotypes have on intercultural communication. Be sure to support your ideas by connecting them to at least one of this week’s Learning Resources. Additionally, you may opt to include an outside academic resource that you have identified.

Checklist for Essay Writers
PART 1. FORMATTING
Follow these steps now to save yourself headaches later and avoid losing credit
Title a word processor file “film-template” or something. Follow the instructions in this Formatting section. For an
essay title, type “[essay title]”. For paragraph text, type a sentence and copy and paste it repeatedly until you have a
paragraph. Do the same to make another paragraph, and another, until you’re onto your second page. Do this to
make sure MS Word isn’t adding extra space between paragraphs (see below) and that you have no first page header
and the correct second page header (see below). When it’s time to write your essay, open this template file and save
it to a new name. Keep the template file for your next essay (and any future course you take with me).
Some formatting instructions below are to ensure students are meeting the same length requirement and that no
formatting deviations are disguising this fact. If I ask you to email me the word-processor copy of your essay and it
shows deviations, you will lose more credit than if you had just handed in a paper under the page minimum. If you
email me a file that is not identical to the essay you handed in, you will lose even more credit.
1. Format the top of your essay like this. To get the above-and-below spacing for your title as below, enter a hard return above and
below your title, then (in your double-spaced document) make these above-and-below lines single space.

[Center essay title; 12 pt font; no boldface, underlining, or brackets]
Essay text starts here. Make sure no more space precedes and
follows your essay title than you see above. ....
2. Last name and page number in the top-right corner of the second and subsequent pages (not the first page). Don’t hand write this
information on the tops of your pages.
Marconi 6
3. Black ink. Standard white paper. Single sided.
4. Times, Times Roman, or Times New Roman typeface (not Cambria), 12 point—including essay title. Don’t change typeface or
font size to increase page length.
5. Double space your work. Don’t alter line spacing to increase page length.
6. Standard margins (1 inch top and bottom, 1 or 1.25 inch left and right). Don’t adjust margins to increase page length.
7. One space (not two) between sentences.
8. No extra space between paragraphs. MS Word likes to insert extra space. Don’t leave figuring out how to tell it not to for the last
minute.
9. Italicize film titles—and at the first mention, follow title with the director and year in parentheses, like this: In an early scene in
Jaws (Steven Spielberg, 1975), a character tries to… Italicize book titles; essay titles are not italicized and go in double quotes.
10. Staple pages, top-left corner. Unstapled.

SPAN100
Course Summary
Course : SPAN100 Title : Spanish I
Length of Course : 8 Faculty : Dallas Jurisevic
Prerequisites : N/A Credit Hours : 3
Description
Course Description:
This course will expose the student to the fundamentals of the Spanish language. The student will learn basic
vocabulary, verb conjugations and grammatical usage through workbook and listening exercises. The student
will also learn about the Spanish culture through reading and listening exercises. Please note the technical
specifications below. These are required to interface with the online version of Rosetta Stone. If you cannot meet
these requirements we strongly recommend you do not take this course. Please contact
[email protected] if you are unsure or have any questions. * The ability to download and install the
speech component. * A working microphone installed on the computer for speech recognition. * Access to
streaming media is also required and should be confirmed before registering for the class.
Course Scope:
Standards for Foreign Language Learning in the 21st Century (1999) “Language and communication are at the
heart of the human experience. The United States must educate students who are linguistically and culturally
equipped to communicate successfully in a pluralistic American society and abroad. This imperative envisions a
future in which ALL students will develop and maintain proficiency in English and at least one other language…”
Our major focus is on learning to communicate appropriately in practical, culturally authentic contexts. Students
are asked, to a limited extent, to use their Spanish to engage in simple dialog and talk about themselves and
create with the language in practical ways. Students also correct peer work and in doing so, students solve
problems (and thus engage in analysis, synthesis, and evaluation).
In these courses, students gradually add to their vocabulary and communication skills, practice question- and-
answer techniques, and apply what they learn in order to communicate and solve problems in practical
situations.
Objectives
Students who successfully complete Spanish 100 should be able to:
► Listening Skills
1. Distinguish all the sounds of Spanish important to meaning.
2. Comprehend brief sentences expressed within the framework of high- frequency vocabulary, grammatical
forms, and sentence structures.
3. Determine the meaning of unfamiliar words or phrases though logical guessing based on contextual clues.
► Speaking Skills
1. Produce all the sounds of Spanish and link sounds together in sentences with sufficient accuracy to
communicate with Spanish speakers.
2. Use high- frequency vocabulary, grammatical forms, and sentence structures to converse in brief sentences in
everyday situations (such as greetings, asking for directions, answering short questions, expressing basic
needs and reactions, exchanging information, or persuading others)
► Reading Skills
1. Comprehend non- technical, narrative Spanish.

Sources and Tips for Assignment 1 (History 105; Prof. Stansbury)—.docxrosemariebrayshaw
Sources and Tips for Assignment 1 (History 105; Prof. Stansbury)—3 pages here
LENGTH AND DEVELOPMENT: Each paper in our class is a 5-paragraph essay, plus there is a title page (=cover page) at the start and a Sources list at the end. The body of the paper is to be double-spaced. The body of the paper should be five paragraphs and a total of 500-to-800 words in length. The 500 minimum is firm; you really have not adequately developed the paper if less than that. The 800-word upper limit is really a guideline—ok to go over. Just don’t ramble. To determine length, I look at the BODY of the paper only (not title page or sources list) and consider primarily the word count. (Microsoft Word makes this easy. Just select from the first line of your first paragraph to the last line of your last paragraph. The word-count is provided on the lower left by MS-Word.). [I do not go by number of pages because there are too many ways that gets fudged by margins, font size, line spacing, etc. However, fyi---Typically, if you follow these instructions, the body of your paper will be 2-1/2 to 3-1/2 pages in length—add a page for your title page and another for your sources list and that then gets to 4-1/2-to 5/1/2.]
Your paper must have a numbered list of sources at the end combined with short in-text citations to those sources in the body of the paper. Any direct quote needs both quote marks and an in-text citation to the source. Any paraphrase or summary of information from a source requires an in-text citation to that source.
Use ONLY the sources designated. If for some reason you must use additional sources, do NOT google for them—use the university library. Pages 2 and 3 below show the sources for each topic and the SWS format for listing and citing each.
In this assignment, do NOT include long quotes of 4 lines or more. The paper is too short for that. Keep any quotes short and clearly marked with quote marks and a citation. Most of the paper should be you using mostly your words while using and summarizing information from your sources, as well as commenting and developing the paper according to the instructions. TIP: Before writing your paper, brainstorm first and make a general list or outline of each paragraph and what it will include. Use the class text for examples or specific information, and jot down the page numbers where you found that information. Do the same with other sources used. This will make your writing of the paper much easier. Then, start typing a rough draft. Plan to revise and edit yourself; allot time to polish the paper before you finally submit. Procrastination is the enemy of quality.
--------------------
ON THE NEXT TWO PAGES—How to list and how to cite the sources in your paper. Each of the three topics (as shown on the instruction sheet) identified sources by link and short identification. On the next two pages, you will see how each of those same sources look in an in-tex.

What was your experience of completing the implicit bias test? Which test did you choose,
and why?
Reflecting on the self-awareness test was interesting. It allowed me to think deeply to give a clear
and precise answer. The questions were occasionally considered but never asked how I might I feel
about a particular topic. I took the ADDRESSING-GSA- Self-Assessment test to recognize the
cultural characteristics of individuals. As social workers, it is essential to adapt and understand
people from all different cultural backgrounds. The result from the test shows what areas I was
more dominant in and what areas I was less dominant in. The results were not surprising to me,
and they gave me a better perspective of what areas I will need to learn and understand better.
Social workers need to be culturally competent, be self-aware of areas that exhibit bias, and be
willing to work on those areas.
What self-awareness themes have emerged so far in Week 1’s Discussion and this week’s
activities?
The self-awareness themes that have emerged from the discussions are reflecting on oneself and
digging deep to know yourself. As well as how do I perceive myself culturally and the dimension
of diversity? Reading through the learning recourses from the course in both weeks were a great
learning experience for me in addressing cultural, diversity and that is expected, especially since
this is the class that it is being taught. Learning the dynamics of culture and diversity will be a
great asset as the social work profession will be working with individuals of all backgrounds.
Identify a population that you are not comfortable with or would like to know more about;
this could be a population represented by the implicit bias test you took, but it does not have
to be.
I would say that I am comfortable with all types of populations. I work amongst a vastly diverse
group of people that I call my second family from home. The people that I would like to learn
more about are young adult and the elderly population. Young adults are at a critical development

themselves. Many of them are in the system and aging out. I often wonder what will be their next
step for their future. How will they get healthcare coverage for health check-ups? Where will they
live, and how safe are the areas where they reside? The elderly population is another group of
people that I would like to learn more about. They are considered vulnerable as some have to rely
on caretakers for their daily needs. Learning about these two different populations will gives ...

The following questions should serve as a guide for your entry:
· What is one group (racial, ethnic, sexual orientation, gender, religious, social class, etc.) with which you feel you can identify in terms of belonging to this group?
· Would you consider this group a majority or minority group? Why?
· How important is this group identity to you? If it is very important, what do you think makes it important? If it is not, why do you think it is not important to you?
· In what way or ways might this group identity help to shape your view of the world?
· How is your ability to be objective about minority-majority issues influenced, either positively or negatively by this group identity?
Comments:
Carl, you’ve done a very good job on your first journal entry and your application of the concepts of “machismo” and objectivity. See my comment on the definition of minority. Are Hispanics considered a minority only due to their numbers? Other relevant concepts that might apply to what you’ve written here might be symbolic interaction and cultural differentiation.
You needed to apply two theories this week. You might have used social identity theory to explain your feeling of comfort around those like you in terms of the ethnicity and social status. You might also have used Interactionist theory to explain the process of cultural transmission of Hispanic norms and values, especially those that apply to Hispanic males as well as to explain why skin color may be significant in the U.S. while it is not as significant in Latin American countries. Interactionists would also suggest that taking one’s time may be interpreted as being lazy in the US and this might result in conflict. Our culture shapes our perceptions and in turn, this influences how we react to those who are not like us in certain respects. Your APA format is very good overall. If the information cited is quoted material, then you also need to include the page number on which the quoted material is located.
As noted in the instructions, these journals are “practice” for the paper. They are meant to help you in applying concepts and theory, so be sure to follow my comments and the feedback I give you each week. Review the rubric below to see where you need to concentrate on improving your entries. If you do not understand something, please contact me. Thanks! Instructor C :-)
The ethnic group with which I feel I can identify in terms of belonging to this group is Hispanic. I would consider this group to be a minority group and so does society. Although Hispanics have grown significantly in numbers throughout the United States their numbers as far as population goes are still low in comparison to others in the United States[k1] . Hispanics have grown to be the largest minority group in the United States (Parrillo, 2011). Being Hispanic to me is very important. It signifies who I am and what I am about.

Cultural Immersion Project – Part 3 Paper Instructions
Individual Encounter and Synthesis
You will conduct an in-depth, 1-hour interview with an individual or married couple from your selected cultural group in order to develop an understanding of the cultural factors that helped shape that individual’s or couple’s cultural identity.
A variety of issues may be explored in the interview. The knowledge you gained from both parts of the Cultural Immersion Project as well as your sense of the person/couple you interview will guide you in how personal you can get with your questions. Cultural groups and individuals vary on how private they are. Use their feedback regarding what areas you can probe. If the person is very open, go deeper. If not, respect that cultural boundary and ask yourself why that boundary is there. Issues that you may wish to explore during the interview include, but are not limited to, the following:
· Early childhood experiences and parental values;
· Earliest memories of recognizing membership in a culturally different group;
· The role of religion/spirituality;
· Immigration experiences;
· Similarities/differences between couples’ interactions in the U.S. to couples’ interactions in the individual’s culture;
· School experiences as a member of a cultural minority;
· Experiences with subtle racism or discrimination;
· Experiences with overt racism or discrimination;
· Ways the person/couple chose his/her/their career(s) or made career choices;
· The experience of being culturally different;
· Attitudes regarding the majority culture;
· Extent of desire to assimilate majority cultural attitudes, values, and lifestyles;
· Feelings of oppression;
· Feelings of anger toward majority culture;
· From the person’s/couple’s own cultural background, any potential racist attitudes toward or stereotyping of individuals from other particular cultures; and/or
· Strengths identified from the person’s/couple’s cultural background that help him/her/them cope with living in the U.S.
Once your interview is complete, you will answer the questions listed below. First person may be used in your answers, and you must observe correct and current APA style. The paper must have a correct title page, and you must use a reference page (no abstract is needed). A word estimate is beside each question; however, the quality of your answer is more important than the word count. You may expand further, but you do not have to do so.
In addition, your paper must be supported by at least 2 scholarly sources, and at least 2 internet and/or media sources, used in project part 1.
It is recommended that you use the following questions as level 1 headings to organize your paper.
1. Share some of the background of your interviewee (or couple). What is this person’s/couple’s story? (approximately 300 words)
2. How open was this person/couple? Why do you think this was? (approximately 100 words)
3. What were some key cultural events (interact.

Social responsibility includes intercultural competence, knowled.docxsamuel699872
Social responsibility includes intercultural competence, knowledge of civic responsibility, and the ability to engage effectively in regional, national, and global communities, including the workplace. These skills are rated highest as desirable skills among hiring managers.
Intercultural competence includes
:
Knowledge of your own culture and how it has shaped your world view.
Knowledge of significant characteristics of other cultures.
Awareness of differences and similarities in cultures.
Ability to adjust your actions to successfully interact with someone of another culture.
How do we continuously improve our intercultural competence? First, by understanding that intercultural competence is complex, and it requires growing and maturing in three areas: mind set, heart set, and skill set.
Mindset
is the domain where as we learn and engage with others, we recognize similarities and differences. A growth mind set requires self-awareness and cultural awareness.
Heart set
is the domain where we learn to acknowledge, appreciate, and accept cultural differences. There are six dimensions to your heart set:
Self esteem
Self-monitoring
Empathy
Open mindedness
Reserved judgment
Social relaxation
Listening
Skill set
involves our intercultural agility; the ability to adjust your actions to successfully interact with someone of another culture. Specific skills include message skills, appropriate self-disclosure, behavioral flexibility, and interaction management.

You will conduct an in-depth, 1-hour interview with an individual or married couple from your selected cultural group in order to develop an understanding of the cultural factors that helped shape that individual’s or couple’s cultural identity.
A variety of issues may be explored in the interview. The knowledge you gained from both parts of the Cultural Immersion Project as well as your sense of the person/couple you interview will guide you in how personal you can get with your questions. Cultural groups and individuals vary on how private they are. Use their feedback regarding what areas you can probe. If the person is very open, go deeper. If not, respect that cultural boundary and ask yourself why that boundary is there. Issues that you may wish to explore during the interview include, but are not limited to, the following:
· Early childhood experiences and parental values;
· Earliest memories of recognizing membership in a culturally different group;
· The role of religion/spirituality;
· Immigration experiences;
· Similarities/differences between couples’ interactions in the U.S. to couples’ interactions in the individual’s culture;
· School experiences as a member of a cultural minority;
· Experiences with subtle racism or discrimination;
· Experiences with overt racism or discrimination;
· Ways the person/couple chose his/her/their career(s) or made career choices;
· The experience of being culturally different;
· Attitudes regarding the majority culture;
· Extent of desire to assimilate majority cultural attitudes, values, and lifestyles;
· Feelings of oppression;
· Feelings of anger toward majority culture;
· From the person’s/couple’s own cultural background, any potential racist attitudes toward or stereotyping of individuals from other particular cultures; and/or
· Strengths identified from the person’s/couple’s cultural background that help him/her/them cope with living in the U.S.
Once your interview is complete, you will answer the questions listed below. First person may be used in your answers, and you must observe correct and current APA style. The paper must have a correct title page, and you must use a reference page (no abstract is needed). A word estimate is beside each question; however, the quality of your answer is more important than the word count. You may expand further, but you do not have to do so.
In addition, your paper must be supported by at least 2 scholarly sources, and at least 2 internet and/or media sources, used in project part 1.
It is recommended that you use the following questions as level 1 headings to organize your paper.
1. Share some of the background of your interviewee (or couple). What is this person’s/couple’s story? (approximately 300 words)

Discussion Stereotypes Categories and Concepts for Understandiclayrhr
Discussion: Stereotypes: Categories and Concepts for Understanding the World
Picture a teacher talking to a student. In the instant that you thought of the word
teacher
, what image of a person jumped into your mind? What were the age, color, gender, and nationality of the imagined teacher? What was the teacher doing and wearing? Similarly, what image of a
student
appeared in your mind to distinguish between the two people?
Humans understand the world by creating categories and labeling concepts and, in this way, apply the concepts in a new circumstance. Stereotypes fall into this category of labeling concepts. They provide a system of coding that facilitates the acquisition of knowledge. On the other hand, stereotypes often demean people by distorting individual characteristics, skills, and abilities. By classifying people based on perceived characteristics of a group, inaccuracies arise at individual and group levels. These inaccuracies about individuals or groups can inhibit effective communication. As an intercultural communicator, however, there are some instances when using stereotypes can be helpful in gaining a level of cultural competence.
To prepare for your Discussion:
Review Chapter 6 in the course text
.
Pay particular attention to the section on stereotyping and the list of cultural categories. Have you seen or heard anyone stereotype any of these cultural categories either in the media or in your own experience?
Locate common stereotypes about your culture on the Internet. Do any of them surprise you? What is true about these stereotypes? What is untrue?
Find three common stereotypes of your culture in the media, or, using the cultural categories in Chapter 6 of the course text, think of a personal experience where you were stereotyped by your membership in one of those categories. Do you feel you are stereotyped in specific ways by certain cultural categories?
Reflect on a personal experience or an example in the media where your culture has been stereotyped by another culture. How does stereotyping by the sender or receiver of the message in this situation affect the intercultural communication?
Note:
One of the goals of this course is to promote a wide variety of views. You are encouraged to present your honest personal viewpoint while at all times reflecting a respectful tone for the views of others.
Do
a 2 paragraph description of two examples of a stereotype of your culture that is found in the media or that you experienced personally. Explain the effects that true and untrue aspects of the selected stereotypes have on intercultural communication. Be sure to support your ideas by connecting them to at least one of this week’s Learning Resources. Additionally, you may opt to include an outside academic resource that you have identified.

Checklist for Essay Writers
PART 1. FORMATTING
Follow these steps now to save yourself headaches later and avoid losing credit
Title a word processor file “film-template” or something. Follow the instructions in this Formatting section. For an
essay title, type “[essay title]”. For paragraph text, type a sentence and copy and paste it repeatedly until you have a
paragraph. Do the same to make another paragraph, and another, until you’re onto your second page. Do this to
make sure MS Word isn’t adding extra space between paragraphs (see below) and that you have no first page header
and the correct second page header (see below). When it’s time to write your essay, open this template file and save
it to a new name. Keep the template file for your next essay (and any future course you take with me).
Some formatting instructions below are to ensure students are meeting the same length requirement and that no
formatting deviations are disguising this fact. If I ask you to email me the word-processor copy of your essay and it
shows deviations, you will lose more credit than if you had just handed in a paper under the page minimum. If you
email me a file that is not identical to the essay you handed in, you will lose even more credit.
1. Format the top of your essay like this. To get the above-and-below spacing for your title as below, enter a hard return above and
below your title, then (in your double-spaced document) make these above-and-below lines single space.

Prof. Spadoni
May 24, 2020
[Center essay title; 12 pt font; no boldface, underlining, or brackets]
Essay text starts here. Make sure no more space precedes and
follows your essay title than you see above. ....
2. Last name and page number in the top-right corner of the second and subsequent pages (not the first page). Don’t hand write this
information on the tops of your pages.
Marconi 6
3. Black ink. Standard white paper. Single sided.
4. Times, Times Roman, or Times New Roman typeface (not Cambria), 12 point—including essay title. Don’t change typeface or
font size to increase page length.
5. Double space your work. Don’t alter line spacing to increase page length.
6. Standard margins (1 inch top and bottom, 1 or 1.25 inch left and right). Don’t adjust margins to increase page length.
7. One space (not two) between sentences.
8. No extra space between paragraphs. MS Word likes to insert extra space. Don’t leave figuring out how to tell it not to for the last
minute.
9. Italicize film titles—and at the first mention, follow title with the director and year in parentheses, like this: In an early scene in
Jaws (Steven Spielberg, 1975), a character tries to… Italicize book titles; essay titles are not italicized and go in double quotes.
10. Staple pages, top-left corner. Unstapled.

Course Summary
Course : SPAN100 Title : Spanish I
Length of Course : 8 Faculty : Dallas Jurisevic
Prerequisites : N/A Credit Hours : 3
Description
Course Description:
This course will expose the student to the fundamentals of the Spanish language. The student will learn basic
vocabulary, verb conjugations and grammatical usage through workbook and listening exercises. The student
will also learn about the Spanish culture through reading and listening exercises. Please note the technical
specifications below. These are required to interface with the online version of Rosetta Stone. If you cannot meet
these requirements we strongly recommend you do not take this course. Please contact
[email protected] if you are unsure or have any questions. * The ability to download and install the
speech component. * A working microphone installed on the computer for speech recognition. * Access to
streaming media is also required and should be confirmed before registering for the class.
Course Scope:
Standards for Foreign Language Learning in the 21st Century (1999) “Language and communication are at the
heart of the human experience. The United States must educate students who are linguistically and culturally
equipped to communicate successfully in a pluralistic American society and abroad. This imperative envisions a
future in which ALL students will develop and maintain proficiency in English and at least one other language…”
Our major focus is on learning to communicate appropriately in practical, culturally authentic contexts. Students
are asked, to a limited extent, to use their Spanish to engage in simple dialog and talk about themselves and
create with the language in practical ways. Students also correct peer work and in doing so, students solve
problems (and thus engage in analysis, synthesis, and evaluation).
In these courses, students gradually add to their vocabulary and communication skills, practice question- and-
answer techniques, and apply what they learn in order to communicate and solve problems in practical
situations.
Objectives
Students who successfully complete Spanish 100 should be able to:
► Listening Skills
1. Distinguish all the sounds of Spanish important to meaning.
2. Comprehend brief sentences expressed within the framework of high- frequency vocabulary, grammatical
forms, and sentence structures.
3. Determine the meaning of unfamiliar words or phrases though logical guessing based on contextual clues.
► Speaking Skills
1. Produce all the sounds of Spanish and link sounds together in sentences with sufficient accuracy to
communicate with Spanish speakers.
2. Use high- frequency vocabulary, grammatical forms, and sentence structures to converse in brief sentences in
everyday situations (such as greetings, asking for directions, answering short questions, expressing basic
needs and reactions, exchanging information, or persuading others)
► Reading Skills
1. Comprehend non- technical, narrative Spanish.

Sources and Tips for Assignment 1 (History 105; Prof. Stansbury)—.docxrosemariebrayshaw
Sources and Tips for Assignment 1 (History 105; Prof. Stansbury)—3 pages here
LENGTH AND DEVELOPMENT: Each paper in our class is a 5-paragraph essay, plus there is a title page (=cover page) at the start and a Sources list at the end. The body of the paper is to be double-spaced. The body of the paper should be five paragraphs and a total of 500-to-800 words in length. The 500 minimum is firm; you really have not adequately developed the paper if less than that. The 800-word upper limit is really a guideline—ok to go over. Just don’t ramble. To determine length, I look at the BODY of the paper only (not title page or sources list) and consider primarily the word count. (Microsoft Word makes this easy. Just select from the first line of your first paragraph to the last line of your last paragraph. The word-count is provided on the lower left by MS-Word.). [I do not go by number of pages because there are too many ways that gets fudged by margins, font size, line spacing, etc. However, fyi---Typically, if you follow these instructions, the body of your paper will be 2-1/2 to 3-1/2 pages in length—add a page for your title page and another for your sources list and that then gets to 4-1/2-to 5/1/2.]
Your paper must have a numbered list of sources at the end combined with short in-text citations to those sources in the body of the paper. Any direct quote needs both quote marks and an in-text citation to the source. Any paraphrase or summary of information from a source requires an in-text citation to that source.
Use ONLY the sources designated. If for some reason you must use additional sources, do NOT google for them—use the university library. Pages 2 and 3 below show the sources for each topic and the SWS format for listing and citing each.
In this assignment, do NOT include long quotes of 4 lines or more. The paper is too short for that. Keep any quotes short and clearly marked with quote marks and a citation.

Ethical Awareness: What It Is and Why It Matters

Aimee Milliken, PhD, RN
Abstract
Given the complexity of contemporary healthcare environments, it is vital that nurses are able to recognize and address ethical issues as they arise. Though dilemmas and challenging situations create the most obvious, dramatic risks to patients, routine nursing actions have implications for patients as well. Ethical awareness involves recognizing the ethical implications of all nursing actions. Developing ethical awareness is one way to empower nurses to act as moral agents in order to provide patients with safe and ethical care. The aim of this article is to provide an overview of the concept of ethical awareness and the role it plays in patient care. Background information is provided; three everyday scenarios highlight the importance of ethical awareness in everyday nursing practice; followed by additional discussion; and strategies for heightening ethical awareness are suggested.

Ethical awareness involves recognizing the ethical implications of all nursing actions, and is the first step in moral action.
Given the complexity of contemporary healthcare environments, it is vital that nurses are able to recognize and address ethical issues as they arise. Ethical awareness involves recognizing the ethical implications of all nursing actions, and is the first step in moral action (Milliken & Grace, 2015). This means that nurses must first recognize the potential ethical repercussions of their actions in order to effectively resolve problems and address patient needs. The aim of this article is to provide an overview of ethical awareness and its important role in ethical nursing care. Three everyday scenarios highlight the importance of ethical awareness in everyday nursing practice. Finally, strategies for heightening ethical awareness in the clinical setting are suggested.
Background
...nurses do not often recognize daily activities... as having ethical implications.
Many scholars have addressed the ethical nature of nursing practice (Austin, 2007; Erlen, 1997; Milliken & Grace, 2015; Truog et al., 2015; Ulrich et al., 2010). Though nursing ethics education often focuses on dilemmas and challenging situations (Truog et al., 2015; Zizzo, Bell, & Racine, 2016), ethical awareness involves recognizing .

Your first patient, Mr. Morales, was seen by Dr. Clay once before, eight years ago,
but was lost to follow-up after that time.
Based on review of the electronic medical record you are able to collect the
following information prior to heading into the room to meet Mr. Morales:
Mr. Morales is a 55-year-old Hispanic male, diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes
mellitus thirteen years ago after experiencing a 20-pound unintentional weight
loss, blurry vision, and nocturia.
He was hospitalized six weeks ago with a non-ST elevation myocardial infarction
and required three vessel coronary artery bypass grafting. During his admission,
he was found to have a reduced ejection fraction of 20%.
He was referred for today's visit by the cardiologist to focus on optimizing his
glycemic control and reducing his risk of the comorbidities associated with poorly
controlled Type 2 diabetes mellitus.
His last hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) was 9.5% eight years ago, and he had
microalbuminuria at that time.

Sooner or later you’ll find your-self leading a team where one.docxrosemariebrayshaw
Sooner or later you’ll find your-self leading a team where one
or more of your people work
remotely. You can turn this situa-
tion into an advantage by leverag-
ing diverse backgrounds and
highly motivated employees. To do
this, you’ll need to avoid the possi-
ble communication and effective-
ness pitfalls and make sure you’re
making use of all the means at
your disposal to operate effectively
from a distance. Interestingly
enough, my experiences in P&G as
both a remote manager and a
remote employee have made me a
more disciplined manager.
Various situations, be it with
remote teams who work from
their homes or international
employees in different time zones,
bring unique characteristics to
which you’ll need to adjust your
management style. That said, the
basics for any manager remain the
same—you just have to do them
better. Do them well, and you’ll
have a highly energized and driven
work team. The consequences of
not doing so are twice as disas-
trous with remote teams.
What You Can Do
Let me share some of my favorite
must-do items for any remote
leader.
1. Energize your team with a
vision. To win as a team and as an
organization, it’s critical to involve
your remote group in the creation
and deployment of a common
vision. Ask yourself what your
most important breakthrough will
be, and set this as the direction
that propels your people and your
action plan. If it isn’t possible to do
this face to face, take time to have a
brainstorming forum, group chats,
and calls with video where you
come to a clear, meaningful state-
ment of the accomplishment your
team will be known for.
2. Engage them with a robust
action plan. This is probably one
of the most critical aspects of
remote leadership. Each team
member needs to feel engaged and
have a clear understanding about
what will be requested from them
or their teams, how it will be mea-
sured, and when you will expect it.
To do this well is to set a solid
foundation and clear the way for
what will come. Draft an action
plan with a clear link to your
vision, and engage each team
member individually with the
objectives assigned to them. Align
on the way updates will be pre-
sented and on key milestones.
Give examples of the way you like
updates to be presented and the
data you expect to see in them.
3. Be in touch with your team.
You need to be disciplined about
having periodic touchpoints in
order to stay connected. Watch out
for overly independent employees
who think they don’t need direc-
tion and allow the distance to
grow. It’s important to align prior-
ities, review action-plan progress,
and talk about career develop-
ment. It also doesn’t hurt to build
a personal relationship that fosters
trust and open communication.
Though there are various con-
straints, mostly financial, make
sure to schedule face-to-face time
as much as possible, and, again,
make use of the vast array of avail-
able videoconferencing te.

Innovation and Organization Transformation
The Boston Globe Organizational Transformations and Innovations
Introduction
The Boston Globe is a company that has been running since 1872. They are experiencing great changes due to changes in the media industry. The owner of The Boston Globe is The Boston Globe Media Partners, LLC. Now, the publisher and the owner of The Boston Globe is John Henry (The Boston Globe). Due to technological innovations, the way and how we inform ourselves is different than the past generations (ex: virtually).
The Boston Globe’s structure, human resources, political and symbolic frames activities are changing so quickly due to the new organization’s transformations and innovations. The structure of the media organizations has changed internally and externally. In relation to human resources we are going to focus on the internal and external changes as a result of the structural change. Politically and symbolically The Boston Globehas transformed, as well. We are going to explore how digital innovation has completely transformed The Boston Globe. This issue is important as The Boston Globe is experiencing many transformations and revenue challenges and they have to survive. Moreover, as a group, we will focus on the organizational transformations in relation to the four frames (structural, human resources, political & symbolic).
Main Issue
· Requires organization response involving key decision makers
Underlying Causes
Activity in the Four Frames
Structural Frame
The Boston Globe had to restructure because of the technological changes in this century. The Boston Globe had to adapt; therefore they created the BostonGlobe.com in 1995. The Boston Globe mains goal is to survive; then it is to deliver news. The Boston Globe went from an all paper organization to an electronic and paper organization (BostonGlobe.com). Due to all the new technological innovation and other online website there has been a need to get an IT department. This IT department takes care of the online website. Moreover, there needs to be a cyber security team because of all the hacking. The Boston Globe needs to protect themselves from the hackers. Additionally, jobs at The Boston Globe have changed greatly. They had to fire Truck drivers to deliver the newspapers and paper boys and hire more tech people.
Human Resources Frame
Political Frame
The owner of The Boston Globe, John Henry, is also the “Red Sox” owner. “In February 2013, the Red Sox owner John Henry assumed ownership, marking a new chapter (The Boston Globe).” This involves means that there is a lot of politics involved as John Henry has biases.
Due to the new structure at The Boston Globe it changes a lot of activity that relates to the political frame. Some of the changes are that there is no more need for different jobs that were very important and essential a couple decades ago, a generation ago. .

Poverty’s Impact on Education in America
Most evidently in America children born or brought up in poverty are faced with insignificant education, versus a child with a higher income background. I have chosen this topic for my research assignment being that an impact of poverty can affect a child’s academic accomplishments significantly. This results in them facing challenges such as lacking intellectual and literary skills. The child readiness for school is reduced by poverty because it brings forth poor physical health and motor skills, dwindles the children's ability to concentrate and remember information, reduces curiosity, attentiveness and motivation. Children from lower-income families who manage to complete high school are less likely to proceed to college. Such children end up not achieving their life goals for lack of education. The effects of poverty on education for some children present unique challenges in breaking the cycle of generational poverty. It further reduces their chances of living productive and rewarding lives.

Abstract
The authors examined the predictive relationship between the performance of job duties informed by the American School
Counselor Association (ASCA) National Model and overall wellness of school counselors. We also examined the relationship
between organizational factors (i.e., Recognized ASCA Model Program, supervision, and support), the frequency of job duties
performed, and overall wellness. The results revealed a predictive relationship between some of the job duties school counselors
perform and wellness. We provide implications for school counseling practice and training programs.
Keywords
ASCA National Model, organizational factors, school counselors, wellness
Wellness, defined as a way of life that fosters “the optimum
state of health and well-being that each individual is capable of
achieving” (Myers, Sweeny, & Witmer, 2000, p. 252), is a
central foundation of the school counseling profession. The
American School Counselor Association’s ASCA Ethical Stan-
dards for School Counselors require school counselors to per-
form duties identified by the ASCA National Model (ASCA,
2012, 2016; Standard B.3.c) and to “monitor their emotional
and physical health and practice wellness to ensure optimal
professional effectiveness” (Standard B.3.f). Therefore, school
counselors must balance the dual task of supporting their stu-
dents’ academic, social/emotional, and career development
while also ensuring that their own wellness needs are being
met (ASCA, 2012, 2016; Bryant & Constantine, 2006; Limberg,
Lambie, & Robinson, 2016).
School counselors must balance the dual task of
supporting their students’ academic, social/

Sources and Tips for Assignment 3 (History 105; Prof. Stansbury)—5 pages here
LENGTH AND DEVELOPMENT: Each paper in our class is a 5-paragraph essay, plus there is a title page (=cover page) at the start and a Sources list at the end. The body of the paper is to be double-spaced. The body of the paper should be five paragraphs and a total of 500-to-800 words in length. The 500 minimum is firm; you really have not adequately developed the paper if less than that. The 800-word upper limit is really a guideline—ok to go over. Just don’t ramble. To determine length, I look at the BODY of the paper only (not title page or sources list) and consider primarily the word count. (Microsoft Word makes this easy. Just select from the first line of your first paragraph to the last line of your last paragraph. The word-count is provided on the lower left by MS-Word.). [I do not go by number of pages because there are too many ways that gets fudged by margins, font size, line spacing, etc. However, fyi---Typically, if you follow these instructions, the body of your paper will be 2-1/2 to 3-1/2 pages in length—add a page for your title page and another for your sources list and that then gets to 4-1/2-to 5/1/2.]
Your paper must have a numbered list of sources at the end combined with short in-text citations to those sources in the body of the paper. Any direct quote needs both quote marks and an in-text citation to the source. Any paraphrase or summary of information from a source requires an in-text citation to that source.
Use ONLY the sources designated and listed for this assignment. If for some reason you must use additional sources, do NOT google for them—use the university’s online library.
In this assignment, do NOT include long quotes of 4 lines or more. The paper is too short for that. Keep any quotes short and clearly marked with quote marks and a citation. Most of the paper should be you using mostly your words while using and summarizing information from your sources, as well as commenting and developing the paper according to the instructions. TIP: Before writing your paper, brainstorm first and make a general list or outline of each paragraph and what it will include. Use the class text for examples or specific information, and jot down the page numbers where you found that information. Do the same with other sources used. This will make your writing of the paper much easier. Then, start typing a rough draft. Plan to revise and edit yourself; allot time to polish the paper before you finally submit. Procrastination is the enemy of quality.

Introduction
A chronic condition is a disease that endures along period. Chronic illness is one of the health issues which has been prevalent in the United States for an extended period. However, multiple sources of risk are associated with chronic conditions that directly impact the success of this project. These sources of risks fall under factors such as technical, managerial, commercial, and external risk factors.

Sources of Technical Risk Factors
Technical risk factors in this project are associated with factors such as:
Scope definition in the study
Research design
Research of information (Cachada et al., 2019)
Methods used to conduct the research study
Sources of Technical risk factors
Technical risk factors in this project arise from issues or activities associated with the scope definition, research design, research of information, and methods used to conduct the research study. In this case, conduction research to know more about chronic conditions in the State of Florida will involve in-depth scope definition to understand more the status of chronic illness in the State of Florida (Cachada et al., 2019)

Sources of Managerial Risk Factors
Managerial risk factors in this project arise from management decisions that affect the flow of performing operations of the activity (Cachada et al., 2019).
Sources of managerial risks affecting the success of this project include the following factors:
Cost factors
Legal factors
Legal factors
Sources of managerial risk factors
Managerial risk factors in this project arise from management decisions that affect the flow of performing operations of the activity. The primary source of such risk includes cost factors, which escalates the cost of conducting a project due to the inability to make proper cost estimations.
Schedule factors is another source of risk that affect how activities of the project should be conducted (Cachada et al., 2019). In the research study, the schedule of performing on the status of chronic illness in the State of Florida will be timed to collect enough information to help in making proper decisions.
Legal risk factors is another set of sources of managerial risks that are likely to affect the effectiveness of this research. These factors arise from regulatory obligations such as contract risks that approve the use of chronic condition data to perform a research project. This set of risks will.

104 PART ONE DIRECTING THE OPERATION
● Implementation – the way that strategy is operationalized or executed. Three issues are
often mentioned by strategy practitioners as being important in achieving successful
implementation: the clarity of the strategy, the nature of the leadership provided by top
management, and effective project management.
● Monitoring – involves tracking ongoing performance and diagnosing data to make sure
that the changes are proceeding as planned and providing early indications of any devi-
ation from the plan.
● Control – involves the evaluation of the results from monitoring the implementation so
that activities, plans and performance can be assessed with the intention of correcting
future action if that is required.
CASE STUDY McDonald’s: half a century of growth 13
It is loved and it is hated. It is a shining example of how
good-value food can be brought to a mass market. It is a
symbol of everything that is wrong with ‘industrialized’, cap-
italist, bland, high-calorie and environmentally unfriendly
commercialism. It is the best-known and most loved fast
food brand in the world with more than 36,000 restau-
rants in 117 countries, providing jobs for 1.7 million staff
and feeding 69 million customers per day (yes, per day!).
It is part of the homogenization of individual national cul-
tures, filling the world with bland, identical, ‘cookie cutter’,
Americanized and soulless operations that dehumanize
its staff by forcing them to follow ridged and over-defined
procedures. But whether you see it as friend, foe, or a bit
of both, McDonald’s has revolutionized the food industry,
affecting the lives of both the people who produce food and
the people who eat it. It has also had its ups (mainly) and
downs (occasionally) as markets, customers and economic
circumstances change. Yet, even in the toughest times it has
always displayed remarkable resilience. What follows is a
brief (for such a large corporation) summary of its history.
Starting small
Central to the development of McDonald’s is Ray Kroc, who
by 1954 and at the age of 52 had been variously a piano
player, a paper cup salesman and a multi-mixer salesman.
He was surprised by a big order for eight multi-mixers
from a restaurant in San Bernardino, California. When
he visited the customer he found a small but successful
restaurant run by two brothers Dick and Mac McDonald.
They had opened their ‘Bar-B-Que’ restaurant 14 years
earlier, and by the time Ray Kroc visited the brothers’ oper-
ation it had a self-service drive-in format with a limited
menu of nine items. He was amazed by the effectiveness
of their operation. Focusing on a limited menu including
burgers, fries and beverages had allowed them to analyse
every step of the process of producing and serving their
food. Ray Kroc was so impressed that he p.

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.

Body
For this part I will focus on my personal experience with my
cousin who turned to be a lesbian, my family was reluctant to
accept her being a members of the Southern Baptist church that
deems same-sex marriage or lesbianism as an evil act that needs
to be condemned with the strongest terms possible. She ended
up being chased away from home and if you spoke to her that
made you just as guilty. It was looked at you condoned her acts
instead of loving the person. It took the family some
deliberations to accept her back, although hesitant, she was
eventually allowed back to family events without all the
gossiping and she got married to her long term girlfriend, they
are now happily married.

section should address the following to help guide you:

provisions that seeks to protect people who are different from
other. Ethical conduct assert that respect and tolerance should
be the key focus in places of work.
