Discussion: Definitions of Culture A veritable plethora of scholarship has been devoted to attempting to define culture. The concept is complex, yet most individuals have some idea about what the term means and includes. The idea of culture is so central to so much that makes us human, that it is well worth our time to explore and unpack its meaning in some depth. We may find that our ideas about culture share much in common with others' ideas about culture, but we may also find some nuances or emphases in some definitions that are less apparent in other definitions. For this Discussion, you will closely examine various definitions of culture and the importance it may have to the psychology community. To prepare for this Discussion: Review the Learning Resources for this week and consider various definitions of culture. By Day 4 Based on your review of the Learning Resources, post your responses to the following questions. What are some definitions of culture that researchers have utilized? What is a definition of culture that resonates with you and why? Why should psychologists be interested in understanding culture? Note: Be sure to support your postings and responses with specific references to the Learning Resources and identify current relevant literature to support your work. ...

200-250words How we do things around here is one way to describe culture. It is challenging to describe a culture when we are part of it. This week we introduced observations, descriptions, and we are seeking to understand the differences in our behaviour using culture as a lens. Conflict is understood differently when observed in differing cultures. All people have some basic needs and drivers of behaviour. How do we unbundle culture from human needs and apply them to managing conflict successful? My Goal To advance our ability to listen, observe, and engage as leaders. We will manage and resolve conflict to come to the best decisions while enhancing our relationships. Use your unique perspective, coming from China and studying in Canada to understand how culture impacts conflict. Identify a conflict you have had. Describe the conflict to start your post. What cultural observations were reflected in your example? What symbols, tone, body language, beliefs, values, etc. do you observe? How does Canadian culture influence how people engage in conflict? How does Chinese culture influence how people engage in conflict? What observation can you make that is human and would be the same no mater what culture the conflict would happen within? Use citations from articles provided or another academic source to support your observations. .

As we are learning through this class a culture can be defined as a system of knowledge and a way of looking at the world that is shared by a relatively large group of people. Cultural knowledge includes shared beliefs, values and attitudes that are developed over a period of time and communicated to other members of the culture through the significant symbols of the culture. As Hofstede suggests, we learn our culture as a type of mental programming that works much like the way the underlying code of a computer program works. The “code” of culture guides behavior and affects how we respond to people and situation. The goal of this assignment is for you to research your culture and to develop a paper outlining what you have discovered. You are to contact members of your culture and seek out additional resources (our textbook, other books, web sites, and the like) as needed. Upon completion of this analysis you will present me with an individual paper which answers, in detail (providing examples to support your answers when appropriate), to the following questions below: Defining Culture as a Part of Identity 1. How do you define your culture? Please Note: in answering this question consider the following: Usually we think of defining our culture in terms of nationality or a country of origin. One may say, for instance, I am Polish, or Polish-American. Groups of people may also define themselves in light of ethnic or racial characteristics. A person’s sense of identity may also be rooted in a religious heritage or any other demographic aspect such as gender, sexual orientation, social class or in light of membership in an age cohort. Sometimes, an organizational structure such as being affiliated with the military or a particular type of community such as a rural community or a vacation spot can also serve as a way of defining our culture. 2. Are there particular values that are especially meaningful to your culture? Please note: Examine how Hofstede has contrasted two types of cultural orientations: Individualistic cultures emphasize the independence and autonomy of an individual. In individualistic cultures a person is self-directed and pursues individual goals or strives to please oneself. Collectivistic cultures emphasize the harmony of the group and the pursuit of group goals over individual endeavors. This may mandate greater conformity and concerns about the security of the group as a whole. Provide examples for your answer. Family Structure and Traditions 3. What are some (list a couple) of the customs or family traditions that you have learned as a member of your culture? Provide some examples. 4. How do the rules and traditions of your culture affect the way that family members relate to one another? For instance, do people in the family have certain roles or particular levels of status based on cultural traditions? Provide some examples. 5. How do factors such as religion or a cultural philosophy of life affect .

Anthro due April 24 11pm Conducting Fieldwork - Discussion Board #2 9 Learning Objective: How Do Anthropologists Get Started Conducting Fieldwork? You don't need to go to a remote country to use the skills of an anthropologist; in fact, there are different cultures all around you at this very moment. College campuses include a huge variety of cultures, all of which can be studied by means of ethnographic fieldwork. Student organizations such as fraternities and sororities, and religious and ethnic groups, can be considered cultures. This should get you thinking about your ethnography projects! Instructions: 1. What is the emic point of view? 2. What is the etic point of view? 3. Write a plan for conducting ethnographic fieldwork within your own community. What culture, other than your own, would you study? What strategies would you employ in your fieldwork? What kinds of analysis would be appropriate for the data you have collected? Consider your fieldwork carefully, including what effect it might have on you. Post your written proposal for fieldwork to your class's online discussion board and ask for feedback about how it could be altered or improved. How would you approach it using the emic and etic points of view? For full credit respond to at least two other post. All posts made to each Lesson discussion are scored according to the following criteria: · 0 points: no participation, no attempt to begin a discussion, or respond to a classmate. · .5 – 5.75 point (F): varying degrees of failure; attempt to participate is not sincere; does not demonstrate much or any preparation; student clearly unwilling to participate or prepare; posts do not address the topic or engage peer in discussion; and/or post is incomprehensible due to grammar/spelling/syntax errors! · 6 – 6.75 points (D): attempt does not demonstrate comprehension of material or full preparation for the discussion, or does not address the discussion topic in a meaningful way, and/or post is very difficult to understand, containing grammar/spelling/syntax errors! · 7 – 7.75 points (C): statements indicate a willingness to participate but do not indicate full preparation or full comprehension, or may not address the discussion topic fully and/or post is somewhat difficult to follow, containing grammar/spelling/syntax errors. · 8 – 8.75 points (B): statements indicate student willing and prepared for discussion, but maybe lacking a complete understanding of concepts or complete coverage of discussion topic, and/or post contains some grammar/spelling/syntax errors. They have also responded to at least 2 other post · 9-10 points (A): student’s enthusiastic participation indicates preparation, comprehension and complete understanding of concepts, has complete and accurate coverage of the discussion topic and is free of grammar/spelling/syntax errors. They have also responded to at least 2 other post. This is my discussion : An emic point of view is a perspect.

Running Head: The value of philosophy 1 The value of philosophy 5 THE VALUE OF PHILOSOPHY TO THE SOCIETY Student University School Course Course code Lecturer Due date In the society, people view the philosophy as being the most irrelevant discipline amongst all others. This is due to the impression that philosophy has very little to deal with the reality. Additionally, the definition of philosophy also has a major rift arising from the fact that the philosophers cannot form an agreement on particular definition due to the nature if the discipline. Moreover, the world has diverse characteristics of disorder and conflict and therefore the philosophy can only but try to understand reality through pointing out different viewpoints as everything in the universe is not known by man. Perspectives of philosophy 1. As a search for reality In this context, philosophers perceive the discipline as being a search for the realities that exist in the world and how mainly how everything in the world exists i.e. the philosophers seek to acquire basic knowledge or ideas about something in the world. Some examples in history include Thales, Anaximenes and Anaximander’s attempts to understand the role and importance of water, air and limitlessness and infinity respectively. 2. As a nature explanation Philosophers perceive the discipline as being critical in the explanation of nature itself. This can be related to the fact that the ancient Greeks philosophers utilized human reasoning in their effort to understand the world. They sought to understand nature through reasoning that was separate from religion and myths but they did not obliterate their existence. 3. Metaphysical systems This deals with efforts aimed at understanding every object that exists in the world and the correlations between them. 4. Critical analysis of language The discipline seeks to produce clarity on specific terms while also explaining the logic parts of the terms. Philosophers argue out that having a clear definition of the terms puts us in a position to know what we are specifically talking about. 5. Searching for the ideal ,life Philosophers argue out that the discipline helps determine what life is and the ideal way to live it. 6. Overall existence of man Some philosophers perceive the discipline as being the search for the truth with man being the most critical determinant its discovery. In essence, man’s interests, relationships with other people, experiences and reasoned would be critical in achievement of the truth. The role of philosophy in the society Despite the various perceptions philosophy, the discipline has extreme importance to the society. A nonexistence of philosophy would be detrimental to the society judging from the fact there would be no importance of what was good, of value or ethically correct. Philosophy is very critical in dealing with problems in the society as it helps man to solve these problems. In the event that these problems ar ...

Information Technology, Computer Networks and Cyberspace Kizza (2014) largely treated cyber-attacks as “cybercrime,” conveying the assumption that these attacks are by definition illegitimate and criminal. However, he occasionally seems to recognize that there might be motives that are more ambiguous and may have a social, moral, or political basis. Lessig (2006) also referred to Internet hacker ethic as rebellious and libertarian and not always criminal in a moral sense. One example cited by Kizza (2014) is the Seattle WTO protest and mass computer attacks that are “increasingly being used to avenge what the attackers consider to be injustices” (p. 97). Another example we discussed was the Stratfor attack. Also, recently we see many examples of cyber security invasions by governments and corporations. Search the Internet to find an example of a hacking activity or situation that represents a morally, ethically, or criminally ambiguous situation but is different from any examples you used in other assignments for this course. Write a critical essay that addresses the following items: Cite and briefly describe your example. Apply what you have learned from the course to this point to identify arguments both in support of and critical of the behavior of the attackers. Describe and explain the relationships among morality, ethics, law, and crime as they intersect in the case example that you have found. Cite Winner’s “Do Artifacts Have Politics?” to identify and explain the political, moral, and ethical choices and consequences that may be embedded in technical choices and artifacts described in your example. Discuss and cite the article “Do Artifacts Have Politics?”, the source of your example, and at least one additional credible or scholarly source other than the course textbook to support your analysis and positions. You may cite the course textbooks as well if you wish. Use standards and APA style guidelines, citing references as appropriate. Your paper should be two to three pages in length. Before submitting your final version, be sure to submit a draft version to the TurnItIn Checker. I will support you with Kizza (2014) and Lessig (2006) Textbook .

Fill out the box below. What’s your topic and focus question? Topic: This Land is My Land Focus Question: Evaluate the impact of the Pequot War on either the Europeans or Natives. Step 2: In 50 words or more, state why you chose the topic and focus question that you chose. It could be how the topic is of interest to you and that you have studied it previously, or it could be a subject that you want to learn more about something of which you do not have knowledge. I opted for “This Land is My Land” topic due to my insightful interest to explore historical events related to patriotism and balancing power between Europeans and Natives in situations such as trade negotiations. The trade aspect drove me to be specific on the focus question that need to address the impacts of Pequot War to Europeans and Natives. In this case, the contact of both had profound effect where balance of power shifted overnight from natives to Europeans. My choice is therefore grounded on the enthusiasm to discover more knowledge into this particular aspect. Step 3: List the two primary source and two secondary sources that you have chosen in the boxes below. Source Type Source Name Primary Source #1 Indian Complaints about English Settlers, 1675 Primary Source #2 Edward Randolph’s Report of King Philip’s War, 1675 Secondary Source #1 Adam J. Hirsch, “The Collision of Military Cultures in Seventeenth-Century New England.” Secondary Source #2 Michal L. Fickes, “’They Could Not Endure that Yoke’: The Capitivity of Pequot Women and Children after the War of 1637” Step 4: In 50 words or more, describe your initial thoughts about how your sources relate to your chosen topic and focus. Make sure to provide specific examples from each of the four sources that illustrate how they will help you answer your focus question. This will help you begin to think about the form of your paper! In primary #1 the natives who were the Indians, revolted against the Europeans led by King Phillip which meant the next combinations of Indians to threaten European dominance after Pequot War . Primary #2 contribute to this research since Randolph, sent by King James II, compiled a report to account for the war involving Indians and colonies led by King Phillip. On the other hand, secondary #1 is relevant to this paper since it analyze military conflicts in 17th-century, warfare practice in Europe; facets of native warfare of Indians and differences between European and native military prowess. Finally, Secondary #2 inputs to my compilation as it addresses how natives of New England were enslaved as it document how Europeans eventually thought of Pequot War as the “civilized” English versus the “savage” natives. The colonialists killed and enslaved Pequot women and children. Topic instructions: .

Information and Knowledge Needs of Nurses in the 21st Century In the year 2025, nursing practice enabled by technology has created a professional culture of reflection, critical inquiry, and inter-professional collaboration. Examples of current technology that could change in the future include: Nurses use technology at the point of care in all clinical settings (e.g., primary care, acute care, community, and long-term care) to inform their clinical decisions and effect the best possible outcomes for their clients. Information is gathered and retrieved via human–technology biometric interfaces including voice, visual, sensory, gustatory, and auditory interfaces, continuously monitoring physiologic parameters for potentially harmful imbalances. Longitudinal records are maintained for all citizens from their initial prenatal assessment to death; all life-long records are aggregated into the knowledge bases of expert systems. These systems are providing the basis of the artificial intelligence being embedded in emerging technologies. Smart technologies and invisible computing are ubiquitous in all sectors where care is delivered. Clients and families are empowered to review and contribute actively to their record of health and wellness. Invasive diagnostic techniques are obsolete, nanotechnology therapeutics are the norm, and robotics supplement or replace much of the traditional work of all health professions. Nurses provide expertise to citizens to help them effectively manage their health and wellness life plans, and navigate access to appropriate information and services. Scholarly writing includes clarity and flow of thoughts. You may want to include headings in your paper to ensure you are meeting all elements of the rubric. Rubric APA Paper APA Paper Criteria Ratings Pts Choose at least two of the technology enabled changes listed above and discuss clinical practice workflow impacts comparing current technology and the new technology. 10 pts Based on the two technology enabled changes you chose, reflect on these advances and looking to the future, how do you envision nursing care will change? 5 pts Find a current scholarly article that discusses nursing job satisfaction and the factors that influence such. Discuss the potential impacts on job satisfaction of the technologies outlined in the case scenario. 10 pts Identify at least 3 ways that nurses could use the new technologies to partner with patients to manage their health. 10 pts APA and Grammar- Title page/Running head- Body of paper/Header/Title: appropriate flow, syntax and context/3-5 pages- In-text citations- References- 10 pts Total Points: 45 .

Information Technology in Public Health Public health surveillance and prevention efforts in the U.S. reflect the involvement of numerous health care providers and organizations. Government agencies such as the CDC often function as a hub for the collection, coordination, and communication of public health-related data. Common applications of public health IT to promote and improve the health of populations include (but are not limited to) biosurveillance, disease registries, and immunization tracking. The timely and appropriate implementation of these applications can have a significant impact on the ability of providers to deliver health care to the their patients, which, in turn, can have a profound effect on a community's overall state of health and wellness. Consider the dire impact a SARS outbreak might have, for example, if patient diagnoses were not reported and shared regionally, nationally, and internationally. Prepare for this Application as follows: Conduct a literature review of a specific application of health information technology in public health and locate an example in which the application was used to address a public health-related concern. (You might wish to begin by researching a particular surveillance program, disease outbreak, disease registry, prevention program, or other public health-related event, and then identify the technology involved in this activity.) Find out how this application has impacted the public's health. Learn also about any ways in which health care providers and organizations were involved in the use of this information technology. Then write a 2- to 3-page paper that addresses the following: Describe the specific application you selected and the ways in which it addresses a public health-related concern. Summarize the potential benefits to the public, as well as any possible drawbacks, arising from the use of this application. Explain the role of hospitals and other health care organizations in contributing to or making use of this public health-related IT application. Discuss other implications of this application for health care providers and organizations. How has it impacted (or might it impact) clinical or administrative practices in hospitals or other health care institutions? Provide a rationale for your response. .

Information is provided for you below that will help you construct an answer for your interpretation of the figures on page 2-3. Background: Dendrobates pumilo is a poison dart frog with a distributional range from Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. The bright colors from the skin of these frogs are considered to be a warning sign of toxicity to predators. Although D. pumilo is one species, there are 10 color polymorphic populations within this range. The warning signs as displayed on D. pumilo are favored by natural selection in terms of predator avoidance. Purpose of the study (what scientists wanted to understand): 1) How visual conspicuousness and toxicity is correlated. 2) Differences between visual backgrounds and predator visual systems on detection of D. pumilo . Glossary: Dorsal : upper side or back Ventral : underside 1 Visual background : Poison dart frogs live on different natural substrates; live dead plant parts, so this would bring about different visual backgrounds. Visual systems : In this study they are referring to how predators “view” D. pumilo. Remember, not all predators will see their prey the same way. Color polymorphisms : alternative phenotypes, and in this case alternative phenotypes of frog skin color. NAME: ______________________ Figure 1. Sampled populations of Dendrobates pumilio in the Bocas del Toro Archipelago, Panama. From Isla Bastimentos, two D. pumilio color morphs were collected (green and orange), as well as four individuals of the closely related but nontoxic control species Allobates talamancae .

Different letters above the bars indicate statistically significant differences; numbers are population numbers referred to in C and in subsequent figures. Allobates talamancae (a closely related Dendrobatid frog) and saline solution served as toxicity measure controls.
