Discussion- Evidence Based Staff Training

/in /by

After you have completed the Reading, and without reviewing your classmate’s responses, post your initial response to the following Discussion. Your post should be at least 400–450 words in length and should extend the discussion of the group supported by your course materials and/or other appropriate resources.

Evidence Based Staff Training

Acme Behavioral Consultation, Inc. has another new client. This time, you are asked to join a team of consultants who have been working with Global Ed Charter School. Global Ed is a for-profit organization in Washington, D.C. serving a diverse group of students, culturally and economically. Global Ed president has reported that behavior incidents have increased since the beginning of the school year in all classes. The president has been lobbying the board for the last two years to develop a behavior management services unit at the school. In addition, she believes that the staff require additional training on basic behavior analytic tactics.

Your Acme Behavioral Consultation, Inc. supervisor has tasked you with providing initial ideas for an effective staff training program to be implemented at Global Ed.

For your Discussion this week you are asked to discuss potential staff training plans for Global Ed:

  • Identify a specific model for evidence based staff training.
  • Describe the necessary components of your selected staff training model.
  • Discuss why the components in your selected model are necessary and why your staff training model is the best choice.
  • Discuss other potential reasons for the increase in inappropriate behaviors at Global Ed. Is staff training the only solution? What are other considerations and environmental variables to evaluate?

Lessons Learned”

/in /by

Nixon

got “caught in the act” of openly deceiving the American public and

resigned in disgrace in 1974. Historians lament the resulting loss of

political idealism and prestige of public office.

  • Agree or disagree with the following statement: “There has always been, and will always be corruption in public office in any democratic system of governance. Sometimes we learn about it, sometimes we don’t. You can only guess at who is telling the truth.” Give reasons for your opinion.
  • Give a brief summary of President Richard Nixon’s involvement in the Watergate scandal.
  • Describe how President Clinton’s transgressions in the office during the 1990s differed from those of President Nixon’s in the 1970s, and how they were the same.
  • The private life of Presidents and most other government officials is under increased scrutiny by the voting public. And yet only a few decades ago very few would have dared delve into anyone’s privacy under the same circumstances. Discuss the role of the media, polls, and “instant news” in the effort of swaying public opinion today.

Short Responses.

/in /by

Response to two people (9-12 sentences for each person) how do you think.

1. The first person.

iTunes terms of Service:

I would say that iTunes terms of service should not be considered poetry. Poetry usually utilizes a distinctive style and rhythm in order to convey a specific intense feeling or emotion. This is not at all seen within the iTunes terms of service. The terms of service is more used as an informative piece to show users what the legal obligations and requirements of the service are. Therefore, there is not doubt that the iTunes terms of service is not poetry as it informs readers about what they can expect from the service and does not utilize a distinctive style.

Maya Angelou, “Phenomenal Woman”

Maya Angelou’s “Phenomenal Woman” is undoubtedly an example of poetry. The piece of work demonstrates unquestionable rhyming and through this Maya Angelou is able to appeal to the emotion of the audience. It is very well noted through the context of the poem that she was trying to appeal to the reader/ listeners emotion. Maya Angelou’s Phenomenal Woman is not merely an example of poetry; it is an example of poetry at its finest.

2. The second person.

“How To Hard Boil Eggs Perfectly Every Time”

I do not think “How To Hard Boil Eggs Perfectly Every Time” is a poem. First and the main reason is that the author does not seem to be have “poem writing” in mind when the she was writing this blog or recipe. Second, I’ll say that there are sentences similar to alliterations every now and then such as “Place the pan over high heat and bring the water to a boil.” However, there does not seem to be any rhythmic matter, no organized rhythming pattern, and none of the foot patterns apply. Third, intuitively, I feel that there are no deep hidden implications or mysterious feelings I get from many other poems that I have read before. The instructions and content are clear and direct, making it easier to understand than poetry.

“Canterbury Tales General Prologue” (YouTube Version)

I think the part read from the Canterbury Tales, “Canterbury Tales General Prologue” is a poem. First, it is categorized as poem by many. Second, it fulfills most of my expectations for a poem. The verses rhyme, there is a clear rhythmic pattern, and alliterations are used often. The text is telling a story, but not that much in a narrative that it loses its poetic qualities. This is something that could have been made into a song and sang out by a bard of olden days. There is a double implication of spring being a time that plants are awakening and people starting to want to go on a pilgrimage to the Canterbury Cathedral. I think this an allegory symbolizing the beginning of a journey, in this case, probably a journey to purification (because they are going to a cathedral).

Olafur Eliasson

/in /by

The Paper: artist Olafur Eliasson

For the final paper, you will investigate a contemporary artist’s practice, examine at least 2 different artworks/projects by that artist and develop an argumentative essay about that artist’s practice (overall body of work and career).

Your paper must have an argument. Possible arguments could address the following: the overall themes/meaning of the artist’s work, the significance of the artist’s practice, the work’s relationship to a larger context (the art world, current events, social issues, history etc.), and/or significant changes within the artist’s own practice etc. The exact claim you make is up to you. It should be specific, arguable (rather than self-evident or universally agreed upon), and realistic in scope (i.e. would not require a 20-page paper to prove). The thesis will summarize your overall argument.Research and the artworks you analyze should support your overall argument.

The paper should have an introduction with a thesis, body paragraphs and a conclusion.

Formatting Requirements:

12pt., Times New Roman. Double-spaced.3-4 pages of writing, 1 inch margins

You must include images of the work of art you are referencing, at the end of your paper. Use figure numbers to reference your images (example: (Fig. 1)).

You may use Chicago Style or MLA.

http://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/tools_citation…

MLA https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/747/01…

Use appropriate citation, either footnotes/endnotes (Chicago Style) or parenthetical citations (MLA)

Include a bibliography/works cited with a minimum of three sources.

The order of your final paper should be:

1. Title page

2. Essay (3-4 pages with citations)

3. Bibliography – 3-5 sources (NOT annotated)

4. Images (in color)

Research:

Research is a large component of this assignment. I recommend going to the library to assist in your research; reference librarians are happy to help you sift through your research and find quality sources. You will need 3-5 sources that you actively quote and/or paraphrase from, and are listed in your Bibliography/Works Cited.

For this project, you will be using only academic sources. While Wikipedia can be a quick tool to look up something unfamiliar, it cannot be used as a source. NO RANDOM WEBSITES! The ONLY websites permitted are websites associated with major art or academic institutions, such as museums, galleries, universities, art publications and the artist’s own website. For example, essays on the Art Forum, the Art Institute of Chicago and Yale University’s websites are good, Dave’s Art Blog, Buzzfeed, FOX News etc. are NOT.
