Ashford 3: – Week 2 – Discussion 1

 

Your initial discussion thread is due on Day 3 (Thursday) and you have until Day 7 (Monday) to respond to your classmates. Your grade will reflect both the quality of your initial post and the depth of your responses.

 

     

One-Variable   Compound Inequalities

 In this discussion, you will be demonstrating your understanding of compound inequalities and the effect that dividing by a negative has on an inequality. Read the following instructions in order and view the example (available for download in your online classroom) to complete this discussion. Please find the pair of compound inequalities assigned to you in the table below:

   

If   the first letter of your last name is

Your   “and” compound  inequality is

Your   “or” compound inequality is

 

A   or L

-4   ≤ 3 + 7x < 24

5   – x ≥ 7 or 8x – 3 > 29

 

B   or K

-16   ≤ 2 + 9x ≤ 11

12   – x > 15 or 4x – 13 > 7

 

C   or J

-10   < -2 + 8x < 22

4x   + 7 < 11 or 1 – x ≤ -2

 

D   or I

-17   < 3 + 10x ≤ 33

5x   + 3 ≤ -2 or 13 – x ≤ 6

 

E   or H

-1   ≤ -3 + 2x < 17

7   – x ≥ 6 or 7x – 1 > 27

 

F   or G

-12   < 12 + 4x < 0

12   – x > 15 or 7x – 13 > 1

 

M   or Z

1   – x ≥ -3 or 5x – 1 > 19

 

N   or Y

-1   < 4 + 5x ≤ 19

2x   + 3 ≤ -1 or 10 – x ≤ 5

 

O   or X

-4   ≤ 5 + 3x ≤ 11

2x   + 2 < 2 or 3 – x ≤ 0

 

P   or W

-9   < -1 + 4x < 15

8   – x > 15 or 6x – 13 > 11

 

Q   or V

-10   < -3 + x ≤ 21

2   – x ≥ 1 or 6x – 1 > 17

 

R   or U

-11   ≤ -5 + 6x < 13

3x   + 2 ≤ -1 or 11 – x ≤ 4

 

S   or T

0   ≤ 4 + 2x ≤ 22

3x   + 6 < -3 or 5 – x ≤ 1 Solve the compound inequalities as demonstrated in Elementary      and Intermediate Algebra and the Instructor Guidance in the left      navigation toolbar, in your online course. Be careful of how a negative      x-term is handled in the solving process. Show all math work arriving at      the solutions.  Show the solution sets written algebraically and as a      union or intersection of intervals. Describe in words what the solution      sets mean, and then display a simple line graph for each solution set.      This is demonstrated in the Instructor Guidance in the left navigation      toolbar, in your online course. Incorporate the following five math vocabulary words      into your discussion. Use bold font to emphasize the words in your      writing. Do not write definitions for the words; use them appropriately in      sentences describing your math work. Compound inequalities And Or Intersection Union

Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length. Support your claims with examples from required material(s) and/or other scholarly resources, and properly cite any references. Respond to at least two of your classmates’ posts by Day 7.

Carefully review the Grading Rubric for the criteria that will be used to evaluate your discussion.

Discussion 2: Power, Privilege, and Classism

 

Power, privilege, and classism are interconnected. The more privilege you enjoy, the more power you have to access opportunities that build wealth. The more wealth you can amass, the higher your social standing. It is important to note that having wealth is not an indictment. However, the privileges that have often led to inequalities in wealth distribution are real. As a social worker, you may find yourself working with clients who do not enjoy the privileges you knowingly or unknowingly enjoy. The more you understand your own relationship to power, privilege, and class, the better you will understand your clients’ realities. For this Discussion, review how classism is represented in the Hernandez family.

 

 

Post by FRIDAY 8PM NEW YORK TIME an explanation of how classism is demonstrated in the Hernandez video. In your explanation, describe how power and privilege function to highlight classism in this case study. Provide recommendations for how social workers might address issues of classism present in the Hernandez case and advocate for change and address classist policies in their agencies

ACC 543 FLEXIBLE BUDGET

Think of a game or activity which could help young learners develop their speaking skills (do not use those already mentioned in the module) and describe, step by step, how you would play it with your class. Note: in this game/activity the learners should talk to each other using sentences rather than single words. The class is beginner or elementary level.

(Please write a minimum of 100 words) You are teaching a mono lingual class of 8 year olds. There are 20 students in the class. This is the beginning of their second year of learning English. Write a 45 minute lesson plan with the following objective:

Objective: For students to learn and practise 6 new action verbs

Please include the following information:

Target language (list the action verbs you will teach)

Assumed knowledge (for example, list some vocabulary and grammatical structures the students already know, which can be of use during the lesson)

Anticipated problems

Solutions

Preparations and aids

A step-by-step plan of the entire lesson including the timing of each stage and activity.
