Discussion: Disadvantaged and Vulnerable Populations
Throughout history, groups of people have received mistreatment that has little to do with who they are as people and more to do with their age, gender, socioeconomic status, skin color, or physical disability. People who face such challenges are more at risk for developing mental health and other life problems. Such problems might include substance abuse, trouble with law enforcement, and homelessness. Human services professionals may be motivated to assist such groups in addressing the challenges they face; however, helping may be difficult because of mistrust, cultural stigmas, and institutional barriers. Whatever the difficulties, social change agents, leaders, and advocates in the human services professions must find ways to help disadvantaged and vulnerable groups face challenges.
To prepare: Select a disadvantaged or vulnerable population, and reflect on the challenges people within this population might face in society. This population can be local, regional, or from another country. Select a code of ethics that might be applicable to this population, and identify specific guidelines that might guide your work with this population.
With these thoughts in mind:
Post a brief description of the disadvantaged or vulnerable population you selected. Then, explain three of the greatest challenges this population faces, as well as the influence that addressing each of the challenges might make in the lives’ of members of this population. Finally, identify a professional code of ethics and explain two guidelines from within that code that might pertain to working with this population. Be specific, and provide examples to illustrate your points.

Fear-Based Research Paper Topics Is it more regressive or progressive that humans have come to fear less than they once did? Do humans depend on fear for survival? In which ways do societies depend on fear as a control mechanism? Is Carl Jung correct in his theory that death drives every human decision?
Get Out Research Paper Topics Using Joseph Campbell’s theory of the Hero’s Journey, argue whether Rod or Chris is the hero of the film. Does either interpretation come with it a sense of a new cinematic hero? When considering the film’s two endings, in which ways do the two differ in terms of the interpretations they offer? Using Get Out, what can you argue to be the dangers of living in a “post-racial” society?
Using Dante’s representation of the different levels of Hell, map/argue which of the film’s characters to be the film’s central sinner. In which ways did the phenomenon of witches come to be? How did the witch devolve from Pagan traditions into the idea of a negative entity? Can modern notions of gender inequality be traced back to the emergence of witches as a societal scapegoat? Are any of the film’s characters justified in the ways in which they commit sin? Does the film have a central hero? Using Joseph Campbell’s theory of the hero’s Journey, argue whether or not Thomasin exists as a feminine hero within the film?

Data Analysis Practice
98 responses (95 unread)
Mills (2014) shares in Chapter 6, “the interpretation of qualitative data is the researcher’s attempt to find meaning, to answer the ‘So what?’ in terms of the implications of the study’s findings” (p. 133). He adds that data analysis and interpretation is “. . . a process of digesting the contents of your qualitative data and finding related threads in it” (133).
Analyze the middle school scenario, Flipped Math Class. Explain your process for coding and categorizing the qualitative data. What patterns and/or themes did you discover? Answer the “So What” for your team of teacher-researchers based on your findings. What steps does your team need to take to address these issues before implementing the innovation of a flipped classroom?
Pages 138-139 in Action Research: A Guide for the Teacher Researcher provide an example of coding from a transcript.
Guided Response: Consider the analysis and interpretation of at least two of your classmates. Did you find similar themes or patterns? Examine their interpretation of the data. Did they discover something you didn’t? Is there something you think is lacking in their interpretation? Provide specific feedback by asking a probing question and/or providing your interpretation of their analysis and next steps. *It is expected you follow-up by the last day of the week to provide a secondary response to any comments or questions your instructor may have provided. This is part of the grading criteria as a demonstration of critical thinking.

Here’s a link to the descriptions of the programs.
http://www.learner.org/resources/series211.html
Here’s the description for Program 4 and 5.
4. Ceremony and Society
Many of the objects and images displayed in museums were never intended to be viewed as static artworks. Different meanings emerge when these works are considered in their original contexts. Masks, costumes, vessels, and other objects were created and used to conduct ceremonies and rituals around the world. Three Traditional Bearers of the tuwaduq Nation create a site for a soul recovery ceremony in the Seattle Art Museum.
5. Cosmology and Belief
In all cultures, people strive to understand their reason for being and their place in the universe. Although art cannot offer definitive answers to life’s biggest questions, it often serves as a means through which to explore them. Art can be an instrument not only for expressing spiritual beliefs, but also for visualizing myths, organizing the cosmos, inspiring faith, and communing with the divine. Russian artist Vitaly Komar is featured.
For the discussion board essay for this program – Describe what each program is about. Then, describe your reaction or opinion of what you saw in each the programs. Give at least 4 major topics from each program. Name 2 or 3 items in each show that you thought were interesting.
0 0 0 Week 3 – Sakai Hoitsu Write a short 3 or 4 paragraph essay about the artworks for this discussion board.
What is the subject of the painting? Look at the design elements and see how they are used to create the final effect? Be sure to discuss how the design principles of Balance, Rhythm, Pattern, Movement, Contrast, Emphasis are used in these pieces. If you don’t see one of these elements, point this out too.
Then, look at how the artist uses the other design concepts such as LINE, SHAPE, LIGHT, SPACE, MASS, VOLUME, TEXTURE and COLOR.
How do all of these areas work together to produce its effect? Do you like this piece?
The Japanese tradition of painting developed separately from European. Using the Elements of Art, what differences do you notice about Japanese tradition as compared with European paintings?
Do you like how the artist presented the subject matter? Would this be presented differently if it had been painted by a European artist such as Raphael’s “Marriage of the Virgin”? How do they differ in style?

This is a short clip about a show of Sakai Hoitsu’s work.
In the wikipedia article above, you will find information about his family history and keep encountering the name “Sakai.” This may not make sense unless you are aware that the placement of parts in a Japanese name is reversed from the American naming convention. For instance, my name, “Barbara Solomon” would have a Japanese equivalent of “Solomon Barbara.”

Be sure to discuss how the art elements of Mass, Volume, Texture, Space and Color are used in these pieces. If you don’t see one of these elements, point this out too.
Look at other paintings by Edouard Manet. Post a link to the one that you find the most interesting. Look in the biographical information or use Google to look at other sources about Manet and find one interesting fact about him.
Manet was among one of a group of artists known as “The Impressionists”? The Impressionists had very distinct ideas about color theory. Their work tended to use bright colors and they avoided some colors such as black. They also painted with larger brushstrokes. Is this noticeable in this painting? Where

Our 2nd painting is by Caravaggio, an extremely influential painter. He’s known for his shading technique of strong lighting and strong shadows. It spotlights the important parts and hides the less important areas. Also, consider the texture and detail.
Compare the differences between Monet and Caravaggio.
When, I’ve seen this painting listed by two different names – “Road to Demascus” and “The Conversion of St. Paul”. Here’s a link to our painting –
There’s quite a difference of colors used by these two painters. This will give a little of the sense about why they are different. (I see a bit of difference with the Monet articles. I suspect that Monet changed his colors a bit over time.)
I know that many of you don’t paint, use these articles to get a feel for the colors. Don’t worry about some of the chemical names and other technical information. 0 0 0
Earlier in the course, you explored how organizations plan for population needs and necessary services by implementing needs assessment surveys. Organizations and their funders want to know that program planning is done in an efficient and fiscally responsible way. Once programs are in place and services are being rendered, they also want to know that programs are progressing toward their goals and are making positive differences in the lives of their communities (and more specifically, the population receiving program services). To do this, organizations engage in program evaluation. There are three main types of program evaluation: outcome-focused, empowerment, and outcome-focused empowerment. In outcome-focused evaluation, criteria for program success is set and evaluated by persons outside the direct program staff. Empowerment evaluation allows program staff to set and measure their own evaluation terms, and outcome-focused empowerment is a combination of the two. Each type of evaluation has its own benefits and limitations, and is more or less appropriate for various evaluation situations. In this Discussion, you will conduct research on program evaluation and evaluate the evaluation approaches found in those articles.
To Prepare Using the Walden Library, locate and select a journal article published within the last 5 years that applies one of the three program evaluation approaches to a human or social services program. Consider why this type was selected and the benefits and challenges to implementing it in this particular situation.
By Day 3 Post a brief description of the program being evaluated in the article you selected. Explain which evaluation approach was used in the evaluation and why it was appropriate for the task. Finally, explain benefits and challenges to applying this type of evaluation to the program in question. Be specific and provide examples.
