Sonnets 153 and 154 are often said not to fit in with the overall sequence. It has also been suggested that they are in fact two drafts of the same sonnet due to their similarity in content and form. Do you agree with these statements? Support your hypothesis by attempting to explain why Shakespeare may have written these sonnets in the first place.
A: As with earlier questions, the student must consider both the text at hand and the historical context to fashion a fully realized argument.

PART ONE: USING 450 WORDS, COMPLETE THE FOLLOWING
Reflect on the concepts and theories you have researched and learned about over the course of the past several week. From the list provided below, choose one theory or concept that was new to you, and discuss how you plan to utilize this new skill going forward. Justify why it is an important skill to have.
1) Creating a sense of urgency.
2) Communication the vision of change.
3) Creating a guiding coalition.
4) Sustaining change.
5) Assessing change readiness.
6) Understanding the impact of organizational culture on change.
7) Creating short-term wins.
8) Empowering people to act.
PART TWO: USING 100 WORDS RESPOND TO THIS POST WHICH IS AN ANSWER TO THE SAME QUESTION AS IN PART ONE WRITTEN BY A PEER. PLEASE STATE WHETHER YOU AGREE OR DISAGREE AND WHY.
The one concept that has always been most difficult for me is creating short-term wins. I am an all-or-nothing kind of person, so realizing and celebrating short-term wins is difficult for me. I recently changed careers. This career is all about short-term wins with long-term goals. This concept was new to me and caused me to struggle for much longer than I had hoped to struggle.
Short-term wins help employees feel good about themselves. When people feel good about themselves, they help the change to progress forward. This will make a big difference in the momentum and results of the change management process. Short-term wins need to be clear, unambiguous, clearly connected to the change initiative, real, visible, tangible, and ensure that the picture has been created so that the employees can see the results for themselves.
Change is scary, but it is inevitable. The only human who generally desires change is a baby in a wet diaper.
Since January, I have started creating, realizing, achieving, and celebrating short-term goals. Because of this, I am becoming more confident and more successful daily.
The color black is used frequently in the dark lady sonnets to characterize the woman’s dark identity. What other instances of color symbolism appear in the sonnets? Find at least three examples of color symbolism and explain them.
A: Shakespeare’s language is markedly tactile, imbued with specific imagery; thus, color (as well as sound, smell, feel) plays a major role in his poetry. Any colors may do in this essay, but in every case the student should use specific passages to support his or her claims.
Ethical Considerations and Communication Failure. Research articles such as The Ethical Failures Behind the Boeing Disasterssee: https://blog.apaonline.org/2019/04/08/the-ethical-failures-behind-the-boeing-disasters/ Address questions such as:
Did anyone at Boeing behave unethically in approving the plane for sale. Or did communication breakdown lead to the failures (it is now delayed through 2020 by the FAA). In addition to ethical violations, does their conduct also raise violations of the law? What is the difference between a legal and an ethical violation? Should the penalties be the same for both? Why is the cover up of wrongful conduct often worse than the conduct itself? What are the benefits of full disclosure of unethical behavior? What could Boeing have done to better educate their employees about ethical and legal violations?
Write a summary of the most important elements of the (change chapter) and (families chapter) and its relationship to gender roles from your perspective. Book: Gender by Lisa Wade and Myra Marx Ferree Then find one article from a scholarly journal that relates to each chapter that was selected and write a personal response for the research articles including 5 points of interest from the article and how the article relates to Gender Roles from the chapters selected. Should have a total of 2 research articles. One from each chapter selected.
Several of the sonnets are rife with financial imagery. Find as many examples of this imagery as you can, and try to account for their distribution within the sonnets.
A: Ask yourself: what does the poet wish to achieve by describing the sonnets’ characters and events with the language of money and finance? Consider Shakespeare’s time: the modern notion of economics is slowly taking shape, more and more sophisticated forms of trade are emerging, and a “philosophy” of money is not far away…
Introduction:
In the past 6 weeks, we have focused on the history of Early Childhood education by examining the historical perspective as seen through the eyes of various researchers and theorists. We have identified the many roles early childhood educators can have in early childhood settings, and we have touched on a chief component of early childhood curriculum, play. This past couple of weeks, we have discussed the importance of partnering with families to provide quality childcare even in these challenging COVID times when we are faced with life changing health and safety concerns that threaten our very existence.
Using a variety of sources from this course including lecture notes, power points, articles, the text, the videos, class discussions, and guest speakers, choose 3 of the 5 essay questions and respond accordingly. A minimum of 1 typed, double spaced page is expected per question. Each essay question is valued at 5 points for a total of 15 points. You will be graded on:
Your response to each question,
Grammar and spelling use
Mechanics of writing
Variety of sources to include assigned articles and the text to support your responses
Please note which question you are responding to.
***Chosen questions 1,2,and 3 ***
Question 1:
Rhian Evans Allvin, NAEYCs CEO states that:
We know that families and early childhood educators support each other, and share a commitment to ensuring the best for children, yet our underfunded system means that families and educators can sometimes find themselves on different sides of issues related to the balance of affordability, quality, and compensation in early childhood education.”
As a program director with limited resources, how would you justify purchasing wooden Montessori manipulatives for a new classroom at your early childhood center when speaking to your board of directors? What research would you use to support your decision? How will you convince the board who authorize spending for the school?
Include researchers and their focus, the titles and authors of the articles focused on early childhood classroom materials and the information you think relevant shared by our guest speakers.
Question 2:
A new family will be joining your early childhood center. As the teacher of the 3 year olds at the center, you will be getting the new student in your class. The family joining your class consists of a same gender couple who are sending their first child to your center. They are concerned that the other families will be uncomfortable with their family’s make-up.
What will you do to help the new family feel comfortable? What specific activities could you offer your students to help them adjust to a same gender family? What classroom activities would you find helpful? Explain why these plans will be important?
Include researchers and their focus, the titles and authors of articles on gender assigned so far (and others you have found), and any information shared by guest speakers.
Question 3:
Compare and contrast in detail the educational theories of John Dewey and Maria Montessori. Discuss them in terms of the historical perspective and touch upon their influences by mentioning other theorists such as Piaget, Erikson, and others who were influential and active during their time in history.
Question 4:
Discuss in detail Piaget’s and Erikson’s work as it relates to play in early childhood classrooms.
Include researchers on play and their focus, the titles and authors of the articles focused on play, and the information shared by our guest speaker on play.
Question 5:
Today, one common curriculum model is emergent curriculum or planning curriculum around what emerges from the children’s interests and experience. Define emergent curriculum in an early childhood classroom. What are some of its practical aspects?
Is this consistent or inconsistent with John Dewey’s ideas about education? How so? Include researchers on emergent curriculum and their focus, and the titles and authors of the articles in your response.
