Lets say you have been reflecting on your first few weeks as a preschool teacher. You often find yourself asking yourself things like, Is this child just grumpy, or is there something more going on? Why arent the children cooperating? How can I manage this negative behavior that is occurring? Is there something more I can do? With that in mind, consider the scenarios in Part A and Part B.
Part A
Three-year-old Tommy is crying and upset because he cant draw a truck like Sams.
For this scenario
Determine the cause of the behavior. Provide one (1) supporting fact to justify your answer, citing your source.
Develop a guidance approach that you might use to address the cause of the behavior. Provide one (1) supporting fact to justify your approach, citing your source.
Part B
The block area is a popular area within the classroom. By the time clean-up arrives, nearly every block is on the floor. As clean-up is announced, children move to other areas, refusing to assist in clean-up of blocks.
For this scenario, describe
two (2) possible causes
two (2) possible guidance strategies. Justify your strategies.
Structure:
1. Introduction up to 300 words to present organisation (Tesla Inc.), time period (i.e. last 5 years) and supply chain stage under analysis (Tesla Suppliers’ supply chain)
2. How in the performance of this segment of the organisations supply chain perceived by internal and external stakeholders about 700 words. Draw on secondary and primary evidence from internal and external stakeholders with regards to the performance of the supply chain stage Tesla Suppliers. Reference available measures for a particular time period (up to 5 years back). The measures are quality of supplies, speed of delivery, cost, any other measures welcomed.
3. Performance measures about 400 words. The internal and external performance measures utilised into the analysis, their strengths and weaknesses and the insights they can provide. Sustainability related measures cannot be included in this analysis.
The article Does Reading Fiction Make Us Better People?(https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20190523-does-reading-fiction-make-us-better-people ) examines the idea that reading fiction enhances our compassion and empathythat is, our ability to identify with other peoples experiences and relate to what they feel and think in their interior lives (Hammond). A story may introduce us to human concerns and emotions by painting a picture of characters lives.
The articles studies present a few events that have been used to gauge peoples empathy. For instance, how does reading a novel about a man suddenly going blind help us empathize with people who are visually impaired?
Remember in “Week 1: What Are the Benefits of Literature,” you were introduced to some of the scientifically proven benefits of reading literature. From Week 1 Insights:
No matter the reader, no matter the writer, no matter the genre, literature is a cultural artifacta manifestation of the human experience. Thus, it can teach us about our society and about ourselves. It enables us to experience alternate lives from the safety of our armchairs, to project ourselves onto characters and environments, to explore worlds we would otherwise never experience.
Studies show that reading literature benefits us in profound ways.
It promotes empathy and social skills (Castano and Kidd).
It alleviates symptoms of depression (Billington et al.).
It helps business leaders succeed (Coleman).
It prevents dementia by stimulating the mind (Thorpe).
This paper assignment will circle back to those benefits as you see them at work in the literature we have read and analyzed for this class.

Assignment
For this paper, choose another story and consider the following question: What does this story have to teach us about empathy for others? In responding to this question, your focus will be on the themes that arise from your close readings of the story. You will develop an argument on what the story teaches us about empathy and how it is conveyed.
Alternatively, you may choose to argue that the story does not teach us about empathy. In either case, you will use elements from the story to support your argument.
In addition, you will use evidence from at least one of the following articles to support your argument:
Schmidt, Megan. “How Reading Fiction Increases Empathy and Encourages Understanding.” Discover Magazine. discovermagazine.com. 28 Aug. 2020.
Castano, Emanuele and David Kidd. “Reading Literary Fiction Improves Theory of Mind.” Science. www.sciencemag.org. 18 Oct. 2013; 342 (6156): 377-80.

Most of the articles in this list were referenced in the Week 1 Insights (see above). You should also refer to “Week 6 Insights: Integrating Sources Using Your Own Voice” for guidance on working with your chosen article.
CRAFTING YOUR THESIS FOR PAPER 2
As you used three discrete literary elements in Paper 1 to support your thesis, you have learned that literary elements such as plot, characterization, setting, and theme are not always separate and distinct. Rather, these elements tend to inform each other, making the story a cohesive narrative.
For Paper 2, you will focus on a significant theme from the story that can be extended to a real-life issue or concern. Your analysis of the storys theme, and the dimensions of that theme, will have affected or even changed how you think about a real-life issue. In other words, your argument will prove that reading and analyzing the story has shown you different viewpoints and thus can increase empathy in readers.
Some issues or concerns to consider:
Gender roles (“Jury of Her Peers,” “Bloodchild,” “Miss Brill”)
Sexuality (“Giovannis Room,” “Bloodchild”)
Relationships (“Bloodchild,” “Giovannis Room”)
Marriage (“Jury of Her Peers”)
Race (“Giovannis Room,” “Recitatif,” “Bloodchild”)
Parenting (“Recitatif,” “Bloodchild”)
Class (“Recitatif,” “Giovannis Room”)
Remember that your Writing Process is recursive and iterative. You should refer to your earlier writing work in this class as well as the learning resources. The Thesis Statements handout and Learning Resources from Week 3 will be helpful. Your thesis for this paper may vary from the boilerplate, but it must still include a claim and three warrants.
Sample thesis structure:
[Story X] helps us to understand [theme/issue Y] by promoting empathy through [warrant 1], [warrant 2], and [warrant 3]
Sample thesis statement:
The conflicts between male and female characters in Susan Glaspells story “A Jury of Her Peers” helps readers have more empathy for the oppression of women through its depiction of Mrs. Wrights marriage, the womens roles, and the inequality between men and women in the story.
OUTLINE FOR PAPER 2
Refer to the work you did and feedback you received from Paper 1. The outline is a straightforward way of listing and organizing the ideas connected to your claim and three warrants for your five-paragraph essay. Your task in drafting this paper is to expand the levels of your outline in more detail.Next, you will convert the bulleted items from your outline into well-crafted sentences, and then combine those sentences into well-organized, logical paragraphs.
The paper will have three body paragraphs, each one led by a topic sentence that includes the explicit warrant. The rest of the paragraph will contain statements with the supporting evidence from both the story and the article.
The essay will be structured as follows:
Introduction:
Create a context for the thesis by explaining the BBC article (two to three sentences). (Cite in the text.)
Provide a brief overview of the story (2 to 3 sentences)
State the thesis: [Story X] helps us to understand [theme/issue Y] by promoting empathy through [warrant 1], [warrant 2], and [warrant 3]
Body paragraph #1: Warrant 1
Supporting evidence from story
Analysis: How does the story help us understand the concern?
Body paragraph #2: Warrant 2
Supporting evidence from story
Analysis: How does the story help us understand the issue?
Body paragraph #3: Warrant 3
Supporting evidence from story
Analysis: How does the story help us understand the issue?
Conclusion
Return to the thesis
Reflect on the connection between the article and the story. What have we learned from your analysis? Does fiction really promote empathy?
Hints:Remember that your reader has read the story and is familiar with it; extensive summary is not useful. Rather, explain and analyze how “meaning” is derived from the story by the author’s implementation of literary elements. Note that the focus should be on the story, not the author, so repeated references to the author are unnecessary.
In this brief (3-5 page) paper, you will use both the structural and human resource frames to explain and make sense of an organizational mini-case with which you are familiar (note: this must be an education organization). The mini-case might derive from an organization you now work in or have worked in, or from a published case you are interested in. In writing this piece you are answering the questions: in what ways does the case display the concepts at work? How do the different ways of viewing the case uncover or highlight what is actually happening in the organization?
For this assignment you will write a 2-3pages (single-spaced; 1500 words) narrative essay about an instance of learning (or teaching) about your particular interest (pet community) that took place somewhere other than a school setting. The goal is to think about how the experience contributed to your learning in ways that we dont see in classroom spaces. This is because we will continue to hone our research skills as we observe at different sites, and on the electronic sites in the internet. You should be clear about how the learning happened in this place by connecting it to our course readings (at least 3 citations related to learning and development should be included). Use APA formatting and include a reference page (not included in the length requirement). If it helps to compare and contrast your learning experience to a more formal learning setting (i.e., the classroom), you can do this, but be careful! The comparative analysis may limit what you are able to say about the uncommon practices of a unique learning environment.
Questions to consider for this essay (You do NOT have to incorporate questions to all the answers, these are guides to be more analytical) :
Where did the learning experience happen?
For whom is the learning experience meant to include? Who benefits from this learning experience? Who is the audience? For whom is it important?
Why does this learning experience happen? Whats its purpose beyond the immediate situation?
Why is this learning experience important for you?
How did learning happen during this experience? What theories of learning (from class) explain the processes of learning that occurred?
Other items to consider for this assignment:
How is the physical space (e.g. room layout, website, order of modules, etc) arranged and how does this support learning? (if applicable)
How do people engage in learning?
What tools and materials are used during the learning experience?
Who participates in the experience, and what kinds of relationships exist between the individuals?
What kind of rules and norms of communication exist and how were these visible to you?
For this paper, you will develop an argument that you began exploring in the Week 2 discussion, which asked, “What is literature?”Your paper will answer that question using the following format:
“This story is an excellentexample of literature because it provides meaning about X.”
Examples of how you might fill-in “X” include “children and parenting,” “the Black experience,” “gendered double standards,” or another aspect of the human condition that you can relate to and that has a significant presence in the story.
The answer statement above is only half of your thesis. The thesis is constructed with two main parts: a claim and warrants.For this paper, your thesis will havethreewarrants.
Example:
Flannery O’Connor’s short story “A Good Man Is Hard to Find” is an excellent example of a literary work because it provides insight into the hypocrisy of religious morality through character, setting, and theme.
Week 3 shows you how the outline is a straightforward way to list and organize your ideas to support your claim with three warrants.Your task in drafting this paper is to expand the levels of your outline in more detail.Next, you will convert the bulleted items from your outline into well-crafted sentences, and then combine the sentences into well-organized, logical paragraphs.
Your three warrants will use the literary elements you explored and applied in Week 2.You may choose any literary elements, and you do not have to use three different ones.However, the body of your paper needs to have three paragraphs.For instance, if you choose to only discuss plot, then you must have enough information to develop three paragraphs about how the plot elucidates your thesis claim.
Summary vs. analysis:Be aware that a paper analyzing a piece of literature is not a plot summary.Summary should be brief, with only the details necessary to identify the parts of the story required to develop your paper.
You must use the short story MISS BRILL by Katherine Mansfield for references.

REMEMBER THIS IS A CONTINUANCE FROM THE LAST 2 PAPERS YOU’VE DONE
Continue to take baseline measurements on your behavior. Remember to measure behavior without trying to make any changes at this point.
Discuss at least five positive punishments that would be effective for you personally. Remember that positive punishment is something you dislike that is added to your environment because you did not meet a goal. Examples might be: having to do additional chores, a scolding, doing pushups (assuming you dislike all of these).
Discuss at least five negative punishments that would be effective for you personally. Remember that negative punishment is removing something that you like because you did not meet a goal. Examples could be loss of cell phone, no dessert, paying a fine and losing money, loss of television time (assuming you like all of these).
