March 28, 2021 Leave a comment APA (edition "APA 6"), Health Care and Life Sciences

Both of our course textbooks speak of additional multi-level theories (in addition to those which we have already discussed) and Behavioral Epigenetics (Nature vs Nuture) in relation to health behavior. In our video tonight we added in the topic of Stress and how stress can affect Health Behaviors.

This assignment will focus on stress and its relation to Health Behaviors.  In lecture we spoke of Bio-Ecological System Levels, the Bio-Ecological Model, Nature vs Nuture and Epigenetics.

While watching this video, please take notes on your beliefs on stress and its relationship to Bio-Ecological System Levels, the Bio-Ecological Model, Nature vs Nuture and Epigenetics

Review the unit readings and resources, including the NAEYC Code of Ethical Conduct sections  I-1.8 and I-1.10 to learn about our responsibility as educators to teach children the importance of respecting and valuing differences in others. Children are naturally curious to learn about people who look or act differently than they do. Therefore, the early childhood classroom is an ideal place to teach them to understand and care about others so they can become responsible global citizens.
In this video, two teachers balance multiple ethnicities in their classroom. Pay attention to how they work to make all students feel comfortable and at home in the classroom, including students who do not speak English.
Describe the creative strategies and activities the teachers in the video used to make all students feel comfortable in the classroom. What strategies do they use to include students who have low English language proficiency? In your opinion, are the strategies effective in creating an environment that supports the needs of all learners and build critical? Why or why not?
Albert Einstein is famously observed that the only serious method of education is to be an example and for adding if you cant help it, be a warning example. Reflecting on the first part of his statement, describe how teachers own attitudes and values can be reflected in the classroom.  Share an example where you have observed or experienced negative attitudes or lower expectations for some people based on factors such as ethnicity, gender, or culture.  What was the impact on those involved, and what are the lessons of this warning example?

Benchmark – Ethics Case Scenario

March 28, 2021 Leave a comment APA (edition "APA 6"), Business and Management

Scenario
A manager was in the process of hiring a new employee and interviewed several candidates. After narrowing the search down to two candidates, the manager and another employee searched several social media sites and reviewed the two candidates’ accounts to gain additional information about them and to decide who they thought would be a better fit for the organization. The manager and employee used the information found in the social media searches in making their final selection for the position. The use of the information gained from the social media search was not disclosed to either candidate at any point in the interview process.

Assignment
Assume you are the director of human resources for the company, and you have just learned about the social media searches that were used in the hiring process. Write a 250-word memo to the company managers that addresses the ethical issues resulting from this situation. Your goal is to reeducate managers about the ethical framework of your organization and the way business, including hiring, is conducted. Include discussion of the following.
The legality of the use of personal information taken from social media as part of the hiring process.
The legality of failing to disclose to candidates of the use of social media account reviews as part of the hiring process.
Summary of the ethical dilemmas and the ambiguities of the situation.
Propose guidelines for the review and use of social media profiles as part of the hiring process.

Personal Idenity

March 28, 2021 Leave a comment Philosophy, Undergraduate

All essays should be in MLA format, double spaced, with a 12 point type.

It is fine to use outside sources like the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (SEP online) when studying philosophers, but when you write your papers dont directly use material from any source. Do not quote from sources in your essay. Also, for essays only, don’t use any first-person pronouns (I, me, my, and mine).

Paper Subject:

What are the main theories of the self? What is the best explanation of personal identity? Is there such a thing as the self?
