Step 2: Teach, Collaborate, and Create (Module 4) a plan for integrating a service learning project into one or more classrooms by first conducting professional development with at least one professional colleague and community member, but preferably a small learning community. Work with interested colleagues to create an implantation plan for a service learning project with students in classrooms. This elder learnign services.

? Invite potentially interested colleagues to your service learning professional development activity.( Hypothetical scenario)
? Use your summary PowerPoint presentation and Informational Handout about service learning as tools for presenting the service learning pedagogy. This we have already worked Use a strategy from the collegial professional interactions models that you studied this was the last you helped me ..
? Collaborate with your colleagues and community members (this may be one of each) to think about areas of the curriculum in which student learning could be improved by integrating a service learning project . this is the part to work now.
? Discuss ways to assess student prior knowledge and level of engagement around an identified curriculum area. Work collaboratively to plan the implementation of a service learning project into the academic curriculum through a lesson or unit design. This part of the elder community service this is the part to work now.
? Distribute your 1-page evaluation/feedback form to the colleagues who attended your professional development activity. Be sure to collect the evaluations after completion. hypothetical
? Based on your collaboration with colleagues, create a lesson or unit plan that will use service learning as a strategy for meeting your stated academic learning outcomes for the students. Include additional social-emotional and character development goals as well as goals to address student diversity and the inclusion of all students. Develop a way to measure what students know in relation to these learning goals before beginning instruction. this is the part to work now,
? Plan to implement your service learning project during the semester, during Weeks 11 and 12.
? Create and submit to the Dropbox a 2- to 3-page reflection paper-RP1 (in APA format) that details everything you did in Step 2. Include insights you gained from meeting and working collaboratively with colleagues and community members to plan for service learning project implementation. This the paper I would like your help ( this is the work )
? Include a copy of your pre- and post-evaluation measure as well as your lesson-unit plan with academic and social-emotional and character development goals. If you method of evaluation for student learning and positive environment includes focus group or individual interviews, include the questions used.

Abstract
Liberace was born in West Allis, Wisconsin on May 16th, 1919. Liberace?s mother was of Polish descent Frances Zuchowaska and his father Salvatore Liberace, was an immigrant from Formia, Italy. Liberace was born with a twin who died at birth and also had a caul on his head. Many cultures believe caulbearers bring good omens and luck with their births and cannot drown. How and why people are born and developing into adults going through all the growing pains have been argued for many centuries. This paper will discuss the life and times of one well know, publically troubled individual, Liberace.


(Liberace )historical figure chose and address each of the developmental stages using Freud, Erikson, or Maslow?s theories to discuss the psychosocial development. Describe the life journey and consider whether the concepts for the theory chosen were notable in the life during that stage, the impact it had on the other person, and whether their life would be a good case study to support the theory. Use your text and a minimum of at least 4 other peer-reviewed journal articles to highlight specific areas of your journey and the theory. For example, if you are discussing the death of a parent when you were a child, and you are using Erikson's theory, you might want to do a search for Erikson and death of a parent in childhood; or, you may want to do a search for articles related to the use of Maslow's theory across the lifespan in order to pull out ideas as you are considering your own life. The following stages of life must be included:

Prenatal and Infancy
Early Childhood
Middle Childhood
Adolescence
Emerging Adulthood
Adulthood (assuming your historical figure has reached 30)
Late Adulthood (if your historical figure have or did reach that).

Cleverley, J. & Phillips, D.C. (1986). Visions of Childhood: Influential Models from Locke to Spock. Teachers College, NY. ISBN 978-0-8077-2800-0

Our culture is conflicted about childrearing. On the one hand, there are people like the conservative Christian psychologist James Dobson who, through his widely syndicated radio show Focus on the Family, has been a prominent critic of permissive parenting and an advocate for the use of spanking and corporal punishment for disciplining children. At the same time, corporal punishment has increasingly come to be regarded as a form of child abuse and is penalized by today's child protection laws. In a four to six page essay, discuss the current controversy about corporal punishment in child-rearing with reference to the historical origins of this debate. Based on Claverley & Phillips' Visions of Childhood, I ask that you first trace the origins of each view in Western Thought by briefly summarizing what you perceive as the main point of each view. Then discuss within each view, the ways in which development can "derail" or go wrong and secondly, what each view imply about child development and how parents may most effectively foster positive development. In an additional section, please explain a personal view and explain if you were aware of the historical origins of your view?

SYLLABUS

COURSE OBJECTIVES

1. To conceptualize relationships among the individual, family, group, community, environment and organizations, and understand how these systems interact to provide the context for human development from birth, through later childhood.

2. To use and understand theories that describe human development from infancy to late childhood, from a critical perspective.

3. To understand the impact and context of diversity on early human development, with special emphasis on the influences of culture, race, gender, sexual orientation, and social class.

4. To acquire knowledge of contemporary urban problems and their impact on human development from birth through late childhood. These problems include poverty, violence, AIDS and homelessness; as well as the negative consequences of oppression, social injustice, racism, classism and homophobia.

5. To become knowledgeable of the theoretical content describing the developing stages of biological, psychological, cognitive, affective, sexual, social and behavioral domains of functioning from infancy through late childhood.

6. To understand the role of research findings in constructing models of development, and contributing towards the integration of a bio-psycho-social systems perspective of human behavior from infancy through late childhood.

7. To define the stressors and risks that may effect people from birth through late childhood; as well as the compensatory interactions of personal, familial, group, and organizational factors that can mitigate against the negative developmental impact of these factors.
HUMAN BEHAVIOR IN THE SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT I

Course Description

Human Behavior in the Social Environment I is centered in the bio-psycho-social perspective, which stresses a multi-dimensional view of human development and behavior. This multi-dimensional view of person in the context of the environment takes into consideration the challenges, stressors and life tasks that occur throughout the life cycle. The individual in his/her environment is seen as a unit where component elements can only be understood in their relationship to each other. The course stresses the centrality of culture, race, ethnicity, gender and the socioeconomic environment.

Using systems theory as a critical theoretical underpinning, Human Behavior in the Social Environment I stresses a non-linear view of development in which there is a continuous reciprocal interchange and mutual impact among different systems (individual, family, group, community). A major focus of the course is on development of the human biological, psychological and social structure as it occurs throughout the life span. Human Behavior in the Social Environment I covers the life cycle from birth to late childhood. Human Behavior in the Social Environment II continues from early adolescence to old age.

The course stresses the need for the development of critical thinking throughout, an examination of the gaps in knowledge that exists in developmental theory, and the role that research plays in knowledge building. The linkages of theories to practice and policy implications are also stressed.

Assignments

Human Behavior in the Social Environment I has a midterm and final paper. In order to continue to build on students liberal arts base novels and/or short stories that encompass significant cultural diversity are used as part of final assignments. Assignments are developed to facilitate integration of content and re-emphasize a systems perspective and the bio-psycho-social approach. Students are asked to integrate the knowledge learned into their discussion of a character within their social environment, as portrayed in novels or short stories.

COURSE OUTLINE AND BIBLIOGRAPHY

I. THE SYSTEMS PERSPECTIVE AND THE BIOPSYCHOSOCIAL APPROACH

This section presents the organizing theme that underlies the Human Behavior curriculum and the study of Human Behavior in the Social Environment in particular: the systems approach. Emerging from systems theory, this approach views human behavior as resulting from a multiplicity of both internal and external factors operating in transaction. Viewing the individual within the context of its environment, the systems perspective understands all human behavior as emerging from the complex interactions of the biological-psychological and social domains.

This section will first explain the process of theory building and the view of all theory as social construct. It will then present the basic concepts of systems theory and the dynamics of dialectical interaction and systemic transaction.

The Bio Psycho Social System will be discussed from both its historical perspective and key relevance to social works view of human behavior in the social environment.

Note:
Required readings will be left to the discretion of the Professor and will be assigned from the recommended readings listed below. All other articles are recommended or are supplemental references.

II. MAJOR CONTRIBUTING PERSPECTIVES TO THE BIO- PSYCHO- SOCIAL VIEW OF HUMAN DEVELOPMENT


Integrating a wide spectrum of literature that describes the bio-psycho-social matrix within which human development takes place, this section will describe the:

(A) SOCIAL/ENVIRONMENTAL CONTEXT OF DEVELOPMENT

Noting the diversity of ethno-racial, class, and gender experiences; the stratification of community and neighborhood environments; the fluxes of family life in urban centers; the influence of environmental stressors on psycho-social development; and the role of macrosystemic organizational systems in both maintaining and addressing all of these dynamics.

The contribution of:

(B) BIOLOGICAL-PHYSICAL FACTORS

How human behavior evolves within the social environment will be reviewed from both perinatal and development perpectives. Genetic, nutritional and maturational influences on personality temperament, intelligence, psychopathology, gender differences, intelligence and physical disability will be considered, especially with respect to their interaction with environmental deprivation and social minority status.


In the psychological domain, multiple:

(C) PSYCHOLOGICAL THEORIES OF DEVELOPMENT

Will be used to understand how cognition, personality and social development takes place within the socio-cultural environment. Thus theories of cognitive development and language acquisition will be considered, as will human attachment theory, psychosocial theory, psychoanalytic theory(s), and behaviorism/social learning theory. These theoretical frameworks will be considered critically as to their validity in comprehensively explaining developmental processes and their potential integration of value presuppositions about normal development within particular cultural contexts.

II (A) THE SOCIAL/ENVIRONMENTAL CONTEXT OF DEVELOPMENT

1. Beginning Concepts of Race, Culture, Diversity and Gender
2. The Central Role of Community and Organizational Systems
3. Family Life in the Urban Environment
4. The Impact of Environmental Stressors and Social Hazards

II A-1. Beginning Concepts of Race, Culture and Diversity

This section will introduce the influence of variation in class, race, gender, ethnicity and gender orientation on human behavior; especially noting how differences in social power and privilege impact on human developmental processes within social/environmental contexts.

II C-1. Understanding Value Assumptions in Developmental Theory Construction

All theoretical and research-based frameworks for understanding human behavior, by definition hold assumptions about what is considered normative within their cultural and historical context. This introductory segment to psychological theories of human development will again alert the student to the presence of centric bias in any form of theory construction.

Beginning with Freuds psychosexual theory of development, the psychoanalytic movement spawned multiple theoretical perspectives about human behavior, all of which believe in the central role of unconscious processes in general psycho-social functioning. These perspectives include ego psychology, which emphasizes adaptive personality functioning in the environment; and object relations theory which stresses the deep wish for human connection in all people.

III. PERINATAL, INFANT AND EARLY CHILDHOOD PERIODS (INTEGRATED BIO-
PSYCHO-SOCIAL AND SYSTEMS PERSPECTIVES)

Section III directly builds on the theoretical and research-based frameworks presented in section (II). The perinatal, infant and early childhood periods will now be studied within their bio-psycho-social matrices in much more detail and integrated depth. There will also be more focused presentation of cross-cultural differences in developmental trajectories, parenting styles, childrearing attitudes and needs/utilization of community services for this early developmental period.

Biological-Physical aspects of early life will consider infant mortality in communities of poverty; the consequences of substance abuse, poor nutrition, poverty and parental stress on prenatal and early development; constitutional strengths and vulnerabilities; maturational changes resting on physical development; and physical handicaps and illness in early development.

Community/Organizational factors, will consider: the impact of poverty and social disenfranchisement on early childhood development; the availability of community services for families with young children; and culturally syntonic programmatic service development for ethnic families.

The complex Psychological factors relevant to this early stage will explore the early roots of attachments and relationships; differentiation and integration of affective development; cognitive development and language learning; the early roots of gender development; the growth of curiosity and environmental mastery; the evolution of subjectivity; and the development of sexual awareness. Furthermore, a comparison of the various psychological theories of infant/toddler development will be conducted with reference to both their explanatory power and cross-cultural relevance.

Expanding on the integrated psycho-social growth of this early period, this section will address the influence of Social/Familial factors such as: familial structure, social supports and caretaker arrangements; arrangements; the consequences of socially determined environmental insults; sociocultural influences and variation in childrearing; familial contexts and styles of nurturing; the influence of social, cultural and familial values on learning and socialization; beginning peer relationships; play and social networks; racial and ethnic identity development; influence of social networks and preschool environments in gender and social role behaviors; growth of adaptation and coping capacities; effects of sexual abuse on development; and parental and familial adjustment to a disabled child.

IV. MIDDLE AND LATE CHILDHOOD: INTEGRATED BIO-PSYCHO-SOCIAL AND SYSTEMS PERSPECTIVES

Continuing to build on the theoretical and research-based frameworks presented in section (II), the middle and late childhood periods will be considered within their bio-psycho-social matrices in more detail and integrated depth in this section. There will be more consideration of cross-cultural differences in developmental courses, parenting styles and childbearing attitudes, as well as examination of the role of community /organizational systems in the lives of young children. Critical examination of developmental theories will continue, especially with respect to their explanatory power with children from diverse socio-ethnic communities.

The domain of Biological-Physical Factors, will consider the unique physical, psycho-motor and cognitive growth that is part of middle childhood and sets the stage for prepubertal change. Important changes in the Psychological domain will be considered such as skills training, the growth of adaptive coping mechanisms, and the enhanced sophistication of conceptual abilities. Furthermore, social and gender roles and the increasing emergence of gender differences in several areas of functioning will be understood from an integrated bio-psycho-social perspective, as physical differences are considered in dialectical interaction with the forces of social role expectation and environmental reinforcement.

A consideration of the complex Social Factors that influence middle childhood development will address: the childs entry into the wider community of social networks and peer relations; the specific character of schools and other social organizations that impact on development; developmental consequences of the real-world status of the family (ethnicity, family structure, social class, etc.); possible value conflicts between home/community; schools as socialization agents and social-sorting systems; social issues pertinent to development and patenting in the urban community; cross cultural variations on development and child-rearing behaviors; and the impact of parents working lives on middle childhood youngsters.

V. LOSS AND BEREAVEMENT IN CHILDRENS LIVES

Parental death and traumatic losses are the experiences of many thousands of children in the U.S., especially those who live in poverty. The increase of violence in communities, and the rising mortality rates from the AIDS epidemic, are rendering many children both traumatized and potentially derailed from their developmental tasks. This section will consider the concept of trauma in childhood, and the repercussions of parental and familial loss; noting especially the process of grief and bereavement during the developing childhood years.

Assignment

The final paper for Human Behavior in the Social Environment is based on "My Name is Asher Lev". The paper should reflect your ability to discuss and integrate the following:

The various theories and perspectives on human behavior in the social environment that been studied this semester
Social factors such as gender, economic circumstances, race, ethnicity, and the cultural context.
It is also anticipated that your paper will represent an understanding of biological, psychological, and social forces that affect individual growth and development.
The paper should move beyond mere description into a dynamic analysis of themes and conflicts presented in the novel, and it should incorporate systems theory.
Evidence of readings and relevant videos should be integrated throughout the paper. Avoid direct quotations from readings, but rather pull ideas from them and integrate them, along with your own critical thinking, into your own paper.
_____________________________________________________
Relavant textbook chapters will be faxed to the number that you will provide. For any questions or clarifications please email.









There are faxes for this order.

Sources I used are:
*"The Global Experience" Volume One Reading in World History to 1550 5th Edition
*"Connections - A World History" Volume 1: to 1650 2nd Edition
*Plato, "The Last Days of Socrates", p. 1-96

The midterm will be an essay exam. The essay exam will test how well you can pull together information from a variety of sources to create an original and persuasive answer to a question. It will test how you can apply what you have learned by imagining yourself as a person in an historical setting.
The midterm will consist of two essays chosen from the four questions given below. You will have to answer both. I assume and strongly recommend that you write out answers to each of the four questions below ahead of time and then simply cut and paste two into the exam on blackboard during the test.
In answering the questions, I expect you to draw from all of the following: lecture, discussion board posts, the textbook, and the primary source readings. I expect you to make accurate generalizations that answer the questions but then back them up with facts and examples. In particular, I want you to sprinkle your essay with many relevant identifications (that is, the key concepts, key people, and key dates you have been learning for quizzes). In the course of your essay, I also want you to explicitly name several primary source documents and state what light they shed on the question. Each essay should be about 650-750 words in length.
In essence, this is an open note, open book exam. However, I am giving it under timed conditions and keeping secret which two of the four potential questions will be on the exam. I do this so students will study and learn substantial parts of the material we have covered and not just small ones.
1. Put yourself in the position of a hunter-gatherer. Why would you adopt farming? What would you do to improve your crops and livestock over time? How would your formerly hunter-gatherer society change over centuries? How would surplus food lead to dramatic social, economic, technological, and political changes? What would those changes be?
2. Put yourself in the position of both an Egyptian and Mesopotamian king. In many ways you are very similar. What do you see as your responsibilities, duties, function as king? What challenges do you face as ruler? By what means do you try to achieve your goals? What is the source that legitimizes your power? Whom do you serve? How might your cultural outlooks differ reflecting the difference in geography and security between Egypt and Mesopotamia?
3. Put yourself in the position of both an Indian and Chinese king. What are your responsibilities, duties, functions as ruler? What are the challenges you face as ruler? How are they similar or different in India and China? By what means do you try to achieve your goals? What is the source that legitimizes your authority? What religion/philosophies do you follow and how do they affect the way you rule?
4. Put yourself in the position of a small Greek city-state during the Greco-Persian Wars and the Peloponnesian Wars. What are the advantages and disadvantages of being neutral or taking sides? What events or circumstances may make you alter your calculations? What do you find appealing or troubling about potentially coming under the influence/control of each of the following: Persian, Athenian, and Spartan society and government?

ESSAY QUESTIONS FOR GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT 2009
Students will be required to write one essay of no more than 1,500 words (i.e. about five typed pages) exclusive of bibliography, graphs and tables. The word limit should be strictly observed. Students should aim for argument and analysis. Essays significantly in excess of the stated length will be penalised.

1. Analyse the process of growth and economic development in Japan between 1868 and 1913. Your approach should be analytical and so draw attention to critical factors, how they fit together and indicate their relative importance in growth as a process.

2. In 1400 per capita income in China was on a par with Europe. But over the next 500 years China fell continuously behind European income and development levels. Analyse the reasons for stagnation in the Chinese economy. Your approach should be analytical and so draw attention to critical factors, how they fit together and assess their relative importance in Chinas growth stagnation. You may also wish to explain how China generated sufficient growth to maintain a relatively stable per capita income despite a rising population.

3. Assess, with particular reference to post-1954 Vietnam, the concept of collective agriculture, its aims and the barriers to a successful implementation of collectivization.

4. Analyze the key components in, and factors relevant in explaining, Malaysian economic growth and development since 1957. What are the lessons and policy implications of Malaysias development experience?

5. Assess the argument that colonialism in Latin America, Africa and Asia is a principal determinant of current per capita GDP in countries in these continents. How might the historical relationship between a countrys production function and its geography interact to help to explain countries current per capita GDP?

Mental Health Policies and Legislation

Choose a piece of mental health legislation or National, State, or Local policy which has made an impact on mental health care over the past 20 years. - I have chosen the recovery model of care - as outlined by the Australian 2010 Mental Health standards.

a. Justify your choice with regard to how it affects your nursing practice and the care of persons with mental illness.
b. Analyse the historical, social, and political influences that shaped the policy that you have chosen.
c. Critically evaluate how effective the policy or legislation is when measured against its stated aims. Which groups benefit from it and are there any disadvantaged groups?
d. Reflect upon the impact it has had or may have upon your own nursing practice.

Marking Criteria : Mental Health Policies and Legislation

Criteria:

1. Demonstrates a clear understanding of the legislation or policy. (15 marks)
2. Ability to effectively analyse how the policy or legislation affects care. (20 marks)
3. Ability to critically examine the legislation or policy?s effectiveness. (15 marks)
4. Demonstrates an ability to reflect upon the impact the policy or legislation has on one?s own practice. (10 marks)
5. References are recent, obtained from reliable sources, using the correct APA format. (5 marks)
6. Overall presentation, grammar, sentence structure, punctuation and spelling are at a level commensurate with post graduate course work. (10 marks)

The main purpose of this case study essay is to explore the meaning of 'sustainable development' in the Southeast Asian context, and critical thinking can one make a case for a distinctively Southeast Asian definition of the concept of sustainable development.

Critically think about following questions:
Can there be a common definition of sustainable development? Does it define a starting point, a process or the end-goal? Can it provide a coherent theory? Is it a workable concept in practice? How different political policies enforced the implement of sustainable development?What contradictions are existed between economic growth and environmental protection in Southeast Asia? Is there a common definition of sustainable development which applies to all cases?

The core conclusion is that sustainable development as a universal concept is problematic when we take into account the diversity of the Southeast Asian region. There are varying factors in the political. socio-cultural and economic realms.

The essay should be divided into the following parts:
1. INTRODUCTION: with thesis and a clear statement
2. Mainstream concepts of sustainable development: from different worldviews and perspectives, ie:traditional views, eco-centric views, anthropocentric views, environmental views, socialist views
3. Criticisms of sustainable development(limits): ie should we firstly closing the development gap sustainably? lack of an agreed definition? is it a western construct that does not suit for Eastern regions? How can we expect people living on the poverty line to act or even care about environmental problems?
4. Sustainable development in the Southeast Asian context: historical and cultural factors, the influence of the state ( as a developer or a protector? economic growth Vs environmental protection which comes first?), eco-tourism (is that a sustainable activity?)
5. Conclusion
There are faxes for this order.

- The course relates to the issues in development and democracy
- Write a research paper on informal/personalistic politics on corruption, political stability and development of Egypt and Morroco
- Argument/ thesis statement needed
-Include extra research to broaden the sope of study on informal exchanges in the countries

History of Development of Blues
PAGES 14 WORDS 4267

This is a Seminar Researched Paper and must be based on the following criteria such as originality of ideas; development of those ideas that draw from readings or media , history and/or politics with a logical development of arguments. Additionally to the above I must illustrate clearly the locations of my sources and enhance them with the development of my thinking that through the history of suffering , lynching, whipping , injustice , inhuman discrimination was very expected that human soul will develop those mechanisms in creating the new form of music known as blues.

History through numbers of slaves and years of suffering have given birth to what is known the Blues as the only permissive outlet of high level of emotional intense that people in slavery went through. For this reason the birth of blues today as a musical form can relate in therapy with those populations who have experience all different inferior intense feelings either by war or society. We can see how relates to PTSD patience by severe trauma either because of war or family experiences and to those in correctional institutions who are stressed by taking away the right of freedom.

I would prefer if in this paper we can include a form of a call a response such as giving a question where the answer is developing step by step the understanding of an input - out put process of what went through the step in history who was the input in the form of slavery and therefore Blues became the answer as a creative output in what happens when freedom is replaced by suffering and slavery. A compare and contrast which as an idea will lead to what we have today and works therapeutically to those who suffer by similar syndromes such as lack of freedom or lose of values such as killing or punishing just because following orders in war is a hard situation as slavery emotionally wise

Resources will be send and are the following

The article by Joseph J Moreno , RMT " The Therapeutic Role of the Blues Singer and consideration for the Clinical applications of the blues form"

the book Devil's Music by Giles Oakley

Seems like murder , by Gussow

and Mammoth Pictorial Tour by Ball's

I dont know how the book of Devil;s Music can be send but if you have access in other technology's ways such as Kindle it can be a solution to this.

PAGES 9 WORDS 2975

The purpose of the paper is to conduct an in depth study in the area of family planning as it pertains to US foreign policy. The paper must have the following components:

Position
Viewpoints
Evidence
Analysis
Timeline (historical chronology)
Documentation

This should be written from a liberal "pro" family planning position.

Also, the last paper I ordered had a free bibliography that was simply website addresses. Most of them could not even be used because they were too general and did not cite the place in the website where the information came from. Quite useless. I will pay for the bibliography if you do it in the correct MLA format. Otherwise all the cited information is useless to me.
