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.

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.

Project Selection and Competency Self-Assessment
Overview
Cultural exchanges in the work environment are complicated by their very nature. However, differences in race, ethnicity, class, gender, and religion can add to the complexity and further intensify even the most basic misunderstanding. In order for you to more fully comprehend this phenomenon, your first assignment (and the first of three for your course project) will begin in the context of the work place.
By successfully completing this assignment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assignment criteria:
Competency 1: Analyze the influence of culture on attitudes, values, perception, human behavior, and interpersonal relations.
Explain why an identified problem is relevant or important to fostering the understanding of diversity issues.
Competency 2: Analyze individual cultural competencies.
Identify individual cultural competencies.
Analyze one's own cultural knowledge, awareness, sensitivity, and actions.
Competency 3: Analyze culturally and developmentally appropriate intervention strategies.
Describe the essential elements of a cultural conflict.
Competency 4: Apply theories, methods, and research in cross-cultural awareness.
Describe a project research question.
Competency 5: Communicate in a manner that is scholarly, professional, and consistent with expectations for members of the human services profession.
Communicate in a professional manner, using concise, well organized, and grammatically correct writing that incorporates appropriate APA style and conventions.
Assignment Instructions
Part 1
Describe a fictional or real-life, work related conflict that has arisen from, and is complicated by, cultural differences. This scenario will serve as the basis for your course project.
Write a two-page narrative detailing pertinent information about your scenario including:
A clear statement of the conflict and project research question.
A description of the essential elements of the conflict, including any relevant details leading up to the conflict.
A discussion of the cultural competencies of the participants.
A rationale for the relevance or importance of this scenario to foster the understanding of diversity issues.
Part 2
It is also important for you to be aware of your own cultural competencies or how well you are able to act with people from other cultures. At the end of this course, you will be asked to assess how participating in this course has contributed to your personal and professional growth. In order to do that, it is helpful to have a starting point for your reflection. Refer to the Sperry (2012) article on cultural competencies from this unit's readings.
Continue your narrative and reflect on your cultural knowledge, awareness, sensitivity, and action—the four components of cultural competence outlined by Sperry. Be explicit in your reflection and assess your ability in each area as very high, high.

Part 1: Although you are all responsible for your own posts, I randomly separated the class into three groups (teams) to focus our discussions and ensure deeper participation into the specific country's perspective on NAFTA. Please follow the sequence below to stay organized with your research and contributions. POST YOUR SUBMISSION IN THE DISCUSSION BOARD ASSIGNED TO LESSON 7 (Not your team's board). Title your post - Your Country and your name
Begin by reading chapters 14 and 15 of the textbook, and the
North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA)

Part 2:
Then each complete an analysis using the following facts pattern:
CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING: Free trade among these nations have both pros and cons. Imagine that you represent the country assigned to you by your professor, and then speculate about both the positive and negative effects that NAFTA may have on the country you are assigned from the perspectives of the individuals listed (business leader, laborer, government); share your speculations with the class. Be sure to include the following in your post:
1. Provide information about the benefits of free trade to ALL countries involved (this can be a table)
2. From the perspectives of the country and parties I assigned you to: Discuss what the drawbacks are of free trade – provide specific examples supported by researchable data,
3. Respond to 2 classmates (1 person from your same team AND another person from another team
From the perspective of the country and parties I assigned you to: Discuss what your predictions and recommendations are for the future of NAFTA.
When replying to your classmates' posts:
Read your classmate's post and reply to no less than two of your classmates and a question.
Your question should be one of the following three types:
· Clarification Based: This kind of question helps the writer by asking your peer to clarify points that you think could be more fully explained.
· Evidence question - When a writer states something as fact rather than personal opinion, your peers argument is stronger if they cite evidence that the fact is true. Facts can be evidenced, in approximate order of strongest evidence to weakest, (1) by citing trustworthy data, (2) by citing the opinions of experts, (3) by citing repeatable personal experience, or (4) by citing common opinion. This kind of question helps the writer by asking for evidence if the student states something as fact but doesn't cite evidence.
· Hypothetical question - This kind of question helps the writer by asking your peer to test their argument by applying it to a situation that you specify.
Please note that a discussion is an exchange. Participate regularly and solicit feedback from your peers.

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.
INCA Survey InformationINCA is an acronym for intercultural comp.docxbradburgess22840
INCA Survey Information
INCA is an acronym for intercultural competency assessment. The purpose of the INCA survey is to examine your intercultural awareness.
Intercultural competence – what does it mean?
Intercultural competence enables you to interact both effectively and in a way that is acceptable to others when you are working in a group whose members have different cultural backgrounds. The group may consist of two or more people including yourself. ‘Cultural’ may denote all manner of features, including the values and beliefs you have grown up with, your national, regional and local customs and, in particular, attitudes and practices that affect the way you work.
Three strands of cultural competences include:
• Openness
• Knowledge
• Adaptability
Openness includes respect for otherness and tolerance of ambiguity. > To be open means to be open to the other and to situations in which something is done differently. You can tolerate your partner as being different and doing things differently.
Knowledge includes knowledge discovery as well as empathy. > You not only want to know the ‘hard facts’ about a situation or about a certain culture, but you also want to know, or you know something about, the feelings of the other person. You also know how your interlocutor feels.
Adaptability includes behavioral flexibility and communicative awareness. > You are able to adapt your behavior AND your style of communication
The INCA survey addresses:
· Communicative awareness
· Respect for others
· Empathy
After completing the survey, use the following to determine your cultural awareness level:
Respect for Others: basic level
Addresses only one culture. Describes the behaviour of one person as negative (e.g. Mr Parker is focused on pursuing his own interests) Criticises one culture (e.g. ‘The Chinese can’t do business’) Sees one attitude towards work as the only correct attitude (e.g. Mr Parker’s attitude ‘business is business’ is correct) Uses negative attributes to describe a person (e.g. ‘Mr Wang is not a good businessman’) Mr Parker should have addressed the importance of the business deal more clearly He should have made threats to leave the country without the deal
Respect for Others: intermediate level
Mostly addresses one culture, sometimes addresses both Describes the behaviour of both persons as neutral Does not criticise the two cultures involved Sees one attitude towards work as better than the other, but also sees the other attitude Does not use negative attributes for one or both of the persons involved Mr Parker should have been better alert to the other person He didn’t give a satisfactory answer to the question about his family
Respect for Others: full level
Describes both cultures (e.g. both persons come from different cultural spheres with different but equal rules) Identifies rules from both cultures (e.g. typically direct way of speaking in English vs. typically indirect way of speaking i.

Final Project Cultural ImmersionCultural Competence is an ess.docxAKHIL969626
Final Project: Cultural Immersion
Cultural Competence is an essential aspect of counselor training. In order to begin to understand a culture, it is essential to have sustained interaction with the culture. For the final project for this course, each student will be responsible for actively investigating multicultural issues in the “real world,” by gradually immersing in a culture different from their own. The immersion project will involve experiential learning about other cultures. The intent is to increase your knowledge and sensitivity to other cultures.
In order to complete this project successfully, you will need to work on it throughout the entire course. As part of the project, each of you will select a culture different from your own and participate in at least three distinct cultural immersion experiences/observations within that culture. The idea is to gradually immerse into the different culture over the course of the term. You may use the list of suggestions below to guide your immersion process or you can devise some ideas of your own. It is essential that each experience is qualitatively different from that of your own culture and that the experiences gradually become more involved directly with the culture of choice.
1. The activities you select must include active involvement in the culture/activity. In other words, you may “observe” the culture but you may not limit the activity to passive observation. Make sure that each activity involves interaction with members of the culture, either through active participation in the activity itself or through conversations with members of the culture. Of course your third activity, the personal dialogue, already requires your active participation.
2. Submit a written narrative of your immersion activities. The paper will be 8-10 pages long (typed, double-spaced, 12 point font), This paper must include the following elements:
· Identification and Description of Population: This section must clearly identify the population you will be studying, how this population is different from you, and what your perceptions of this group are at this point in life. The description of differences should include both the obvious (visible differences, etc.) and the not so obvious (religious beliefs, sexual orientation, etc.). Please state all the differences you can identify. Your perceptions of this group should include information such as what you were told about this group as you were growing up, any beliefs/perceptions/assumptions you have about this group, what your sources of information about this group have been in the past, and why you have an interest in this group. In this section, you must make a case for how this person is different from you and why this experience will be challenging for you.
· Observation: You will need to complete at least three observational activities of the group you have chosen to study. Examples and suggestions of observational activities are listed below. If y ...

Project Selection and Competency Self-Assessment
Overview
Cultural exchanges in the work environment are complicated by their very nature. However, differences in race, ethnicity, class, gender, and religion can add to the complexity and further intensify even the most basic misunderstanding. In order for you to more fully comprehend this phenomenon, your first assignment (and the first of three for your course project) will begin in the context of the work place.
By successfully completing this assignment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assignment criteria:
Competency 1: Analyze the influence of culture on attitudes, values, perception, human behavior, and interpersonal relations.
Explain why an identified problem is relevant or important to fostering the understanding of diversity issues.
Competency 2: Analyze individual cultural competencies.
Identify individual cultural competencies.
Analyze one's own cultural knowledge, awareness, sensitivity, and actions.
Competency 3: Analyze culturally and developmentally appropriate intervention strategies.
Describe the essential elements of a cultural conflict.
Competency 4: Apply theories, methods, and research in cross-cultural awareness.
Describe a project research question.
Competency 5: Communicate in a manner that is scholarly, professional, and consistent with expectations for members of the human services profession.
Communicate in a professional manner, using concise, well organized, and grammatically correct writing that incorporates appropriate APA style and conventions.
Assignment Instructions
Part 1
Describe a fictional or real-life, work related conflict that has arisen from, and is complicated by, cultural differences. This scenario will serve as the basis for your course project.
Write a two-page narrative detailing pertinent information about your scenario including:
A clear statement of the conflict and project research question.
A description of the essential elements of the conflict, including any relevant details leading up to the conflict.
A discussion of the cultural competencies of the participants.
A rationale for the relevance or importance of this scenario to foster the understanding of diversity issues.
Part 2
It is also important for you to be aware of your own cultural competencies or how well you are able to act with people from other cultures. At the end of this course, you will be asked to assess how participating in this course has contributed to your personal and professional growth. In order to do that, it is helpful to have a starting point for your reflection. Refer to the Sperry (2012) article on cultural competencies from this unit's readings.
Continue your narrative and reflect on your cultural knowledge, awareness, sensitivity, and action—the four components of cultural competence outlined by Sperry. Be explicit in your reflection and assess your ability in each area as very high, high.

Part 1: Although you are all responsible for your own posts, I randomly separated the class into three groups (teams) to focus our discussions and ensure deeper participation into the specific country's perspective on NAFTA. Please follow the sequence below to stay organized with your research and contributions. POST YOUR SUBMISSION IN THE DISCUSSION BOARD ASSIGNED TO LESSON 7 (Not your team's board). Title your post - Your Country and your name
Begin by reading chapters 14 and 15 of the textbook, and the
North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA)

Part 2:
Then each complete an analysis using the following facts pattern:
CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING: Free trade among these nations have both pros and cons. Imagine that you represent the country assigned to you by your professor, and then speculate about both the positive and negative effects that NAFTA may have on the country you are assigned from the perspectives of the individuals listed (business leader, laborer, government); share your speculations with the class. Be sure to include the following in your post:
1. Provide information about the benefits of free trade to ALL countries involved (this can be a table)
2. From the perspectives of the country and parties I assigned you to: Discuss what the drawbacks are of free trade – provide specific examples supported by researchable data,
3. Respond to 2 classmates (1 person from your same team AND another person from another team
From the perspective of the country and parties I assigned you to: Discuss what your predictions and recommendations are for the future of NAFTA.
When replying to your classmates' posts:
Read your classmate's post and reply to no less than two of your classmates and a question.
Your question should be one of the following three types:
· Clarification Based: This kind of question helps the writer by asking your peer to clarify points that you think could be more fully explained.
· Evidence question - When a writer states something as fact rather than personal opinion, your peers argument is stronger if they cite evidence that the fact is true. Facts can be evidenced, in approximate order of strongest evidence to weakest, (1) by citing trustworthy data, (2) by citing the opinions of experts, (3) by citing repeatable personal experience, or (4) by citing common opinion. This kind of question helps the writer by asking for evidence if the student states something as fact but doesn't cite evidence.
· Hypothetical question - This kind of question helps the writer by asking your peer to test their argument by applying it to a situation that you specify.
Please note that a discussion is an exchange. Participate regularly and solicit feedback from your peers.

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.
INCA Survey InformationINCA is an acronym for intercultural comp.docxbradburgess22840
INCA Survey Information
INCA is an acronym for intercultural competency assessment. The purpose of the INCA survey is to examine your intercultural awareness.
Intercultural competence – what does it mean?
Intercultural competence enables you to interact both effectively and in a way that is acceptable to others when you are working in a group whose members have different cultural backgrounds. The group may consist of two or more people including yourself. ‘Cultural’ may denote all manner of features, including the values and beliefs you have grown up with, your national, regional and local customs and, in particular, attitudes and practices that affect the way you work.
Three strands of cultural competences include:
• Openness
• Knowledge
• Adaptability
Openness includes respect for otherness and tolerance of ambiguity. > To be open means to be open to the other and to situations in which something is done differently. You can tolerate your partner as being different and doing things differently.
Knowledge includes knowledge discovery as well as empathy. > You not only want to know the ‘hard facts’ about a situation or about a certain culture, but you also want to know, or you know something about, the feelings of the other person. You also know how your interlocutor feels.
Adaptability includes behavioral flexibility and communicative awareness. > You are able to adapt your behavior AND your style of communication
The INCA survey addresses:
· Communicative awareness
· Respect for others
· Empathy
After completing the survey, use the following to determine your cultural awareness level:
Respect for Others: basic level
Addresses only one culture. Describes the behaviour of one person as negative (e.g. Mr Parker is focused on pursuing his own interests) Criticises one culture (e.g. ‘The Chinese can’t do business’) Sees one attitude towards work as the only correct attitude (e.g. Mr Parker’s attitude ‘business is business’ is correct) Uses negative attributes to describe a person (e.g. ‘Mr Wang is not a good businessman’) Mr Parker should have addressed the importance of the business deal more clearly He should have made threats to leave the country without the deal
Respect for Others: intermediate level
Mostly addresses one culture, sometimes addresses both Describes the behaviour of both persons as neutral Does not criticise the two cultures involved Sees one attitude towards work as better than the other, but also sees the other attitude Does not use negative attributes for one or both of the persons involved Mr Parker should have been better alert to the other person He didn’t give a satisfactory answer to the question about his family
Respect for Others: full level
Describes both cultures (e.g. both persons come from different cultural spheres with different but equal rules) Identifies rules from both cultures (e.g. typically direct way of speaking in English vs. typically indirect way of speaking i.

Final Project Cultural ImmersionCultural Competence is an ess.docxAKHIL969626
Final Project: Cultural Immersion
Cultural Competence is an essential aspect of counselor training. In order to begin to understand a culture, it is essential to have sustained interaction with the culture. For the final project for this course, each student will be responsible for actively investigating multicultural issues in the “real world,” by gradually immersing in a culture different from their own. The immersion project will involve experiential learning about other cultures. The intent is to increase your knowledge and sensitivity to other cultures.
In order to complete this project successfully, you will need to work on it throughout the entire course. As part of the project, each of you will select a culture different from your own and participate in at least three distinct cultural immersion experiences/observations within that culture. The idea is to gradually immerse into the different culture over the course of the term. You may use the list of suggestions below to guide your immersion process or you can devise some ideas of your own. It is essential that each experience is qualitatively different from that of your own culture and that the experiences gradually become more involved directly with the culture of choice.
1. The activities you select must include active involvement in the culture/activity. In other words, you may “observe” the culture but you may not limit the activity to passive observation. Make sure that each activity involves interaction with members of the culture, either through active participation in the activity itself or through conversations with members of the culture. Of course your third activity, the personal dialogue, already requires your active participation.
2. Submit a written narrative of your immersion activities. The paper will be 8-10 pages long (typed, double-spaced, 12 point font), This paper must include the following elements:
· Identification and Description of Population: This section must clearly identify the population you will be studying, how this population is different from you, and what your perceptions of this group are at this point in life. The description of differences should include both the obvious (visible differences, etc.) and the not so obvious (religious beliefs, sexual orientation, etc.). Please state all the differences you can identify. Your perceptions of this group should include information such as what you were told about this group as you were growing up, any beliefs/perceptions/assumptions you have about this group, what your sources of information about this group have been in the past, and why you have an interest in this group. In this section, you must make a case for how this person is different from you and why this experience will be challenging for you.
· Observation: You will need to complete at least three observational activities of the group you have chosen to study. Examples and suggestions of observational activities are listed below. If y ...

Unit 1: Understanding the Tourism and Hospitality Industry with Work Placement
Introduction
To be assessed on this unit you need to undertake and
SUBMIT
a 2,000 word assignment, clearly following relevant
instructions
on content, word count and referencing procedures.
The assignment is designed to cover the learning outcomes of the unit and help you obtain a clear understanding of the subject area via the research, reading and relevant work experience (if
APPLICABLE
) undertaken during your studies.
You may already be working in the industry and studying OTHM on a part-time basis or perhaps an individual who wishes to
ENTER
the industry or
upgrade
skills through study and work placement.
Some Issues to Consider
Historically, Great Britain played a major role in developing the tourism infrastructure used today, starting with the first tour operator and leading to the development of railway networks and travel by ocean liner – enabling visitors to travel both nationally and internationally.
Modern tourism is a major source of
FOREX
to many developing economies and is often the main industry in an economy. An increase in disposable
income
and the growth of mass air, coach and rail travel has also had a major impact (sometimes negative as well as positive) on a region or economy.
Tourism and hospitality is the world’s largest
EMPLOYER
and an understanding of the industry will enable you to progress further with the other specialist areas of the
diploma
.
Researching the Tourism and Hospitality
The assignment has been designed to encourage you to research the industry, considering the main factors driving the development and demand within the industry. Your assignment should also allow you to gain a clear understanding of the supply chain within the tourism and hospitality industry.

Understanding the Value of Qualitative ResearchAn important part.docxTakishaPeck109
Understanding the Value of Qualitative Research
An important part of both analyzing other’s research approaches and reflecting on your own includes understanding the positive and negative aspects of varied forms of social research and how they can influence a researcher’s stance and tone. While quantitative data can provide a general overview of the impacts of public policy and systems which manage society, qualitative data can provide specific and important information regarding the causes of this impact, such as the how, why, and who. Therefore, qualitative research can provide beneficial information to aid public policy in regards to social problems. This is especially important to know when public policy and systems create negative impacts, such as profiling, inequality, limited access, and social exclusion. It is also important to be able to recognize the stance or informed viewpoint of the researcher reporting on this information.
One of the more immersive forms of social research methods available is one of the qualitative methods: ethnography. Ethnography allows a researcher to experience the impacts through living amongst the citizens who have to engage with public policy and its systems in their daily lives. The most intriguing aspects of this type of research is how the researcher maintains an ethical and neutral stance during and after the process of research and how the experience can impact their stance or underlying tone.
In this assignment, you will present the benefits of ethnographical research in terms of informing public policy, as well as understanding the researcher’s role in performing and reporting on ethnographic research. You will do this through your own research of immersive ethnographical approaches (including the course text), and also through analyzing Dr. Alice Goffman’s work on inner city people of color in Philadelphia. You will be provided with reporting and reviews of her work to help fuel your own analysis of Dr. Goffman’s approach. This will help you become better at discerning what useful research is in order to appropriately inform decision-making in society.
In your paper, you must address the following:
Explain the researcher’s role in qualitative research. Discuss the unique issues that researchers should be concerned about in regards to their role in research, and explain how this is specifically a challenge in ethnographical research. Discuss specific actions researchers can take to ensure they retain their ethical and neutral stance in performing qualitative research and reporting their qualitative research results.

Kesha has invited her friend Carrie to go home with her over the school’s short holiday break. Kesha, like many African Americans, has a rich spiritual tradition that permeates most areas of her life. In addition, Kesha is close to her immediate and extended family. Carrie, on the other hand, comes from a predominantly Caucasian Presbyterian background, is an only child, and rarely sees any of her extended family.
During her visit, Carrie is noticeably uncomfortable with the vastly different dynamics of Kesha’s family. Carrie is rethinking her friendship with Kesha and wants to withdraw from her.
How will you help Carrie understand the cultural values inherent in the African American culture and how these might be affecting her?
Suggest ways in which Kesha could build a bridge to help Carrie understand the African American culture.

Under the common law, from the 1500s until today, the law has allow.docxTakishaPeck109
Under the common law, from the 1500's until today, the law has allowed past property owners to place limitations on the uses of real property in the future through the use of covenants (promises) as set forth in real property deeds as well as use of the fee defeasable estates (i.e. "To John Doe, so long as the property is used as a tobacco farm") and the evolution of zoning statutes and practice. Thomas Jefferson argued vehemently that no past owner of real property (dead or alive) should be allowed to restrict a future owner of real property concerning its present use; however, the Virginia State Legislature disagreed with him and land use limitation continues today. Jefferson described this practice as "Allowing the dead to control the lands of the living."
Was Jefferson right, or should we maintain the practice of allowing past property owners to place land use limitations in deeds of lands sold or gifted? Further, should the government be allowed to determine how a private property owner uses his/her respective land?

Here are the assignment details. There are two attachments: one includes what you see below plus a diagram of the building design and the template we are to use for the paper.
ASSIGNMENT SCENARIO:
You have been hired as part of the networking team at UMUC. After completing orientation and training in your first week, your manager calls you into a meeting to discuss your first project.
The university has recently leased a building in Adelphi, Maryland. The building will house some offices, classrooms, a library, and computer labs. Security is very important for UMUC, as the university must protect students’ and employees’ data, as well as any intellectual property that UMUC has on its servers and computers. As a result, IT management would like to take the time to review some proposals on how best to move forward. As a network engineer, you have been asked to prepare a network proposal on how to set up a secure network infrastructure in this new building to support university operations.
After speaking to your manager, you are excited about the project, but you realize you will have a busy schedule. As you write your proposal, you will also have to prepare for the Network+ Certification exam. One of the conditions of your employment at this company is that you obtain this certification within 60 days of being hired. You will have to manage your time wisely, because you will have to take a practice certification test just as you are completing your final project.
To get started, follow the steps below.
OVERVIEW
You will provide detailed network design proposal. Your task is to design the network for this new building with the following criteria:
·
Student-accessed computers should be on separate network from the staff-accessed computers. Computers for public use should be on a separate network.
·
There must be a minimum of 40 Mbps Internet connection, with a backup line capable of at least 20Mbps. Cable, DSL, or FIOS should not be used for primary Internet service.
·
The network should use physical cable, not wireless. But do provide wireless access in the Student Lobby area (second-floor hallway). Set the maximum simultaneous wireless users to 254.
·
The network has been assigned the 10.11.12.0/23 network address for all computers and devices
Your proposal should have three major sections:
1.

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.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

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
document for the respondents to sign along with verbally
consenting to participate in this assignment. 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
2. 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.
Compare and contrast the respondent's views with your own.
How would you answer the same questions?

Assignment 2: LASA 1: Cultural Autobiography
The purpose of this assignment is to illustrate recognition of
your own cultural background and how your worldview has been
shaped by your family, role models and life experiences. This
autobiography will help you express an appreciation for your
own cultural identity and discover potential areas of
development.
Begin by defining individuals that you consider family
members. This includes, for example, parents or guardians,
siblings and/or grandparents. Important information about these
5. individuals includes places of birth, travel (if any), age,
spiritual/religious beliefs, occupation, educational history,
ethnicity, birth order, etc. In this description include the
cultural heritage each individual and summarize the belief
system of your family in general, including specific family
values, religious and cultural practices, ceremonies, beliefs, and
holiday celebrations. If possible, interview these individuals in
an effort to gain new insight into your cultural heritage.
Next critically evaluate experiences in which you feel have had
significant relevance in your multicultural development. Include
both positive and negative experiences if applicable.
After taking a look at these influencing factors, critically
examine and discuss who you are as a cultural being, including
your racial identity. Think about your own development,
functioning, values, behaviors and worldview and how you feel
your family history, chosen role models, and experiences have
shaped you. Describe how your life would be different had these
cultural influences not been there. Be sure to include a
description of interpersonal expectations for yourself and
lifestyle choices. Finally, having taken a close look at your
cultural autobiography, include potential biases which may
influence how you interact with others. This could include, for
example, favoring individuals of your own heritage or
unconscious biases towards a certain cultural group.
Be sure to address each topic listed above and, as appropriate,
cite the online course, the textbook, and other credible sources
to substantiate the points you are making. For example, when
discussing your racial identity please cite sources which you
have referenced to better understand what this term means or
use the text or lecture to substantiate points you are making
about how gender has influenced your cultural development.

Interview
Watch the Frontline program online.
Frontline: A Class Divided
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/divided/
A Class Divided explores the nature of prejudice. Third grade
teacher Jane Elliott deliberately created a classroom situation to
teach her students how it feels to be on the receiving end of
discrimination. This is an encore presentation of the classic
documentary on third-grade teacher Jane Elliott's "blue
eyes/brown eyes" exercise, originally conducted in the days
following the assassination of Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. in
1968. This classic classroom experiment, conducted in the late
1960s in a small Midwestern town, demonstrates how quickly
and easily schoolchildren can internalize prejudice and
discriminate. Years later, these children discuss the valuable
lessons they learned from this experiment. Elliott employs this
same teaching strategy with a group of adults in the workplace,
and discusses their reactions.
This assignment is designed to allow you to synthesize what you
have been learning about the various dimensions of diversity
9. and the necessity of treating everyone in an inclusive, sensitive
and respectful manner.
Discrimination Paper Part I: Interpersonal Reflection
After viewing the video, consider the following questions and
write your response. Your response should be 4-5 pages and
should address each question thoroughly, reflecting an accurate
representation of what you have learned in this course.
Demonstrate scholarship by utilizing supporting resources to
justify your ideas and responses:
What did you learn from the film? What scene or scenes do you
think you'll still remember a month from now and why those
scenes?
Did any part of the film surprise you? Do you think someone
with a disability, of a different sexual orientation, an older
American or some of a different religion would also find it
surprising? Why or why not?
Both Elliott and her former students talk about whether this
exercise should be done with all children. What do you think? If
the exercise could be harmful to children, as Elliott suggests,
what do you think actual discrimination might do? Use an
example, different from the example you used to describe
labels, from what you have learned about people with
disabilities, older people, sexual minorities, or people of
differing religions.
How can negative and positive labels placed on a group become
self-fulfilling prophecies? Use an example from what you have
learned about people with disabilities, older people, sexual
minorities, or people of differing religions.
Based on what you have learned in this course, discuss an
example (either from the video or from your experiences) that
illustrates each of the following statements:
Dimensions of diversity may be hidden or visible.
Dimensions of diversity are in a constant state of flux.
Dimensions of diversity are not always clear-cut or easily
defined.
Discrimination Paper Part II: Personal Interview
10. For Part II of this assignment, you will have a conversation with
someone who you feel may have faced discrimination. Examples
include someone with a disability, an older American, someone
who is a sexual minority, or someone who lives in a
multicultural family. After choosing an individual to interview,
explain to this individual what you have seen in the Class
Divided program. Invite them to watch the program, or parts of
the program, with you. After watching or discussing the
program, pose the following questions to the individual. Be sure
to explain the reason for your questions and why you have
selected them to participate in the interview:
What, if any, discrimination do you experience?
How have you coped with this situation?
What do you think needs to change at the cultural level to
reduce discrimination?
Following your refection (Part I listed above), add 2-3 pages to
your paper which addresses the following:
A description of the individual you chose to interview and why.
Explain how you went about approaching this individual for the
interview.
What are your observations about the person's view of
discrimination and how it affects his/her daily life?
Did the interaction with the person change your view of
discrimination? If so, explain how the interaction has affected
you either positively or negatively. If it did not change your
view of discrimination, explain why.
How well do you think you would cope with discrimination
from this person's perspective?
Finally, what is the best manner in which to advocate for those
facing discrimination? What actions will you change based on
what you have learned in this course and how will you serve as
an advocate for those individuals who face discrimination?
Your final assignment, consisting of both Part I and II, should
be approximately 6 -8 pages. Be sure to address each topic
listed above and, as appropriate, cite the online course, the
