The movement towards inclusion of persons who are deaf and hard of hearing emphasizes the use of Sign Language Interpreters (SLIs) who translates all verbal languages into visual languages. Sign language interpretations is a process of translating a spoken language using hand shapes, signs, body gestures and speech to an individual or group of individuals whose organ of hearing is nonfunctional. This process involves the dynamics and interactions between the individual with hearing loss, the speaker and the environment. The activities SLIs are challenging with the receiving, processing and relaying of information processes which occurs in milliseconds and its associated burnout and occupational risks. However, these risks and its associated psychosocial related stress affect the output of the SLIs and the optimum benefit to individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing. Acknowledging the various challenges of sign language interpretation, this paper projects the prospect and benefit of effective and all encompassing sign language interpretation to the psychosocial well being of the deaf and hard of hearing population in Nigeria and the entire Africa when Sign Language Interpreters are given optimum attention and priority by the government, society and even the deaf/hard of hearing community.

In the 1990s, the CIS region experienced a painful transformation following the collapse of the USSR and the command economy. For the less developed republics of the former USSR, this process was even more dramatic as they lost subsidies from the Union's budget and some of them suffered devastating conflicts.
In the 2000s, after overcoming the adaptation output decline and the consequences of the 1998-1999 financial crises, these economies started to grow rapidly, reducing poverty and macroeconomic imbalances. However, their future growth prospects are increasingly vulnerable due to their strong dependence on commodity exports, a poor business and investment climate, endemic corruption and weak governance. Quite recently, fighting high inflation has returned to the policy agenda.
The modernization and diversification of the low-income CIS economies requires further market and institutional reforms aimed at overcoming the Soviet legacy of a repressive and inefficient state. The international community can help by resolving regional conflicts, assisting with trade and economic integration, and offering well-targeted development assistance.

PSY 314: Developmental Challenge
Learning Objectives
1) Identify and describe the range of physical, cognitive, language, moral, and social-emotional development of individuals from conception through adolescence.
3) Apply the developmental theories of Piaget, Vygotsky, Erikson, B.F. Skinner, Bronfenbrenner, and/or Bandura to analyze instructional activities and student behavior.
5) Apply their knowledge of effects of diverse influences on development to individuals from a variety of cultural backgrounds.
Assignment Description
For this assignment you’ll write at least a 4 page (excluding title or reference pages), double-spaced paper in which you demonstrate your understanding of child development, two major developmental theorists and contemporary professional practice. You will choose a specific developmental challenge at a particular age level and then write a paper that demonstrates your ability to apply concepts of two developmental theorists and professional practice. This assignment is worth 50 points.
The term “developmental challenge” refers to a particular aspect of physical, social, or emotional development in which children or adolescents must develop new skills or competencies. For example, learning to read is a developmental challenge faced in early childhood. A list of possible developmental challenges is included below. If there is another challenge you would like to address, you must let me know what it is so I can approve it as an appropriate topic.
In your paper you’ll need to describe the developmental challenge you have chosen, provide an analysis of it from the perspective of two relevant developmental theorists, and integrate findings from two professional references related to your topic. These references must come from the professional literature (peer-reviewed journal articles and other professional literature) that relate to the developmental challenge.
Here are the specific requirements for the two references:
1) One of the references needs to focus on applications or best practices regarding the issue. This could be a best practices paper, a literature review, or recommendations from professional organizations. Best practices refer to techniques, methods, or approaches accepted by the profession as being effective in addressing the challenge. An example would be recommendations for elementary math instruction from a professional organization such as the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. An excellent resource for this type of reference is the professional organization for your particular discipline or specialty. You could identify the professional organization for your discipline and explore the best practice resources they have available through their respective websites. This reference should have been published within the past 10 years.
2) The second reference should be a current (within the last 10 years), empirical (based on data) research report of an actual study conducted on the is ...
