Required Reading

Zastrow, C. H., & Kirst-Ashman, K. K. (2016). Understanding human behavior and the social environment (10th ed.). Boston, MA: Cengage Learning.

• Chapter 11, “Psychological Aspects of Young and Middle Adulthood” (pp. 499-548)

Social scientists who study human behavior have developed theories that attempt to explain what drives an individual’s choices as well as what environmental factors influence individual human behavior and how they influence it. One theory on human behavior you may be aware of is Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. Maslow (as cited in Zastrow & Kirst-Ashman, 2016, p. 505-507) stated that individuals first strive to fulfill their basic physical needs. Then, the individuals, as long as they are successful at each stage, continue through a hierarchy of needs, obtaining each until they reach the self-actualization stage of self-fulfillment. For this week’s assignment, you focus on another theory of human behavior—Glasser’s choice theory.

To prepare for this Assignment, consider what you learned about choice theory in this week’s resources as well as what you learned about the person and environment as it relates to young and middle adulthood.

Submit a 3 to 4-page paper that answers the following questions:

• How does choice theory explain the human behavior of individuals in the young and middle adulthood phases of the life span?
• How might you, as a social worker, incorporate components of the choice theory into your work with individuals in the young and middle adulthood phase of the life span?
• Do the human needs that Glasser identifies in his choice theory reflect the experience of individuals across cultures? Why or why not?

Support your Assignment with specific references to the resources. Be sure to use the required reading in your paper and provide full APA citations for your references.

Please respond to the following:

In this week’s Strayer Story, Steve Stone and Bashar Shala shared their story of faith and friendship that continues to grow between their two communities.

• What surprised you about Steve’s response to the Memphis Islamic Center?
• What challenges did Bashar face when he needed to ask Steve about renting a room for Ramadan?
• Have you ever experienced a challenging situation with someone of a different religion? What influenced your response?

I used the DC Network to locate information about the 10 Strategic Points, the Prospectus template, the Proposal template, and the Dissertation template.Each of these have their own purpose.For instance, the 10 Strategic Points are for identifying the research topic, literature review, problem statement, research questions, the phenomena or variables, the research methodology and design, the data collection process, the data analysis process, and the purpose statement which are all the foundation of the birth of each doctoral students dissertation (Grand Canyon University, 2016).The Prospectus template is for the doctoral student to utilize as a road map for the final dissertation that will assist with the creating of the dissertation proposal which will expand on the previous 10 Strategic Points (Grand Canyon University, 2017).The proposal template is for the continued expansion of both the 10 Strategic Points and the Prospectus which will also include a table of contents, list of tables, list of figures, completed chapter one, completed chapter two, completed chapter three complete, references, appendix A, appendix B, appendix C, and appendix D (Grand Canyon University, 2015b). The Dissertation template is for the completed dissertation with the additional signature pages, verification page of original work, abstract, dedication, and acknowledgement, completed chapter four, and completed chapter five (Grand Canyon University, 2015a).I have a plan to interact with these documents throughout my doctoral student journey.I have already started my 10 Strategic Points in previous classes here and there and then it came to a full circle with much clarity in my first residency.However, I have and will continue to update it as I continue along this journey and find more updated or even more solid articles to be the foundation of my dissertation.In addition, I had started on my prospectus but still have a long way to go.My goal is to get it done prior to my next residency which will be the summer of 2018.The purpose of each document is to help the doctoral student to create, develop, and complete the dissertation since each document assists with the next document in the journey.I will interact with each of these documents as I progress through each one of my classes to incorporate it into my dissertation.

Please provide a 250 word response to the above question. Please also use at least 1 peer reviewed article as a reference and please list reference in paper in APA 6th edition format.

1. Write a six to eight (6-8) page wireless deployment plan for an education institution with a single campus but with multiple buildings on that campus.
2. The wireless deployment plan must include, but is not limited to, the following items:
3. 1. 1. Wireless Deployment Plan Overview
      2. Purpose and Scope
      3. Wireless Network Equipment and Devices
      4. Wireless Network Device Configuration
      5. Wireless Client Configuration and Access
      6. Wireless Network Staffing, Training, and Support Requirements
      7. Wireless Network Security Requirements
      8. Terms and Definitions

1. Use at least four (4) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources.

Use Microsoft Visio or an open source alternative, such as Dia to develop a network architecture diagram depicting the wireless networking equipment, security devices, and architecture for the corporate wireless network.

Use MS Project or an Open Source alternative, such as Open Project to develop a project plan depicting the project tasks, task durations, predecessors, and resources needed to implement the wireless network.

The visual principle of gestalt, pioneered by German Max Wertheimer, is one of great importance in the design world. The statement, “The whole is different than the sum of its parts,” summarizes much of the gestalt theory. In this assignment we’ll explore this statement in detail. Choose a famous work of art. The Image Resources in the Course Materials folder should help you find a good source. Look closely at the image and identify several of the individual elements within the image. Imagine the removal of one of these elements. How would the meaning of the image change? Remove a second. With two elements missing, how does the meaning change again? In a brief 2-3 page analysis, identify the image you chose. Describe the meaning of the image as a whole. Then describe the meaning of the image as the first element is removed and again after the second is removed. What does this exercise show you in terms of how imagery can be used in media?
