I hope you have enjoyed our overview of Asian American Theatre so far.

Last week I asked you to discuss your thoughts based your experience and exposure to pop culture, entertainment, news and your own awareness on what those issues might be that Asian American Theatre could and does now speak to.

I have enjoyed reading your discussion very much. It is interesting how many conversations there are about the era of Internment camps during WWII. Many of you have had some terrific insight to the social experience that you have had in your lives. Thank you for all the personal reaction to this topic.

I thought I would have us continue this discussion in this way:

I would ask the same question to you again and share your thoughts on Asian American Theatre and those issues you feel are important now based on our reading this week, your research of Asian American Theatre and the conversion with David Henry Hwang, the posted articles and video about “Yellow-face” casting and the challenges for Asian American performers in America today.

Has your opinion changed? Why or why not?

What have you learned or discovered this week that may have changed what you feel is important to the issues of the Asian American society and culture?

How can Theatre/TV and Film better serve the Asian American public and those issues that we see are being wrestled with?

Make sure you answer is at least 150 words and that you respond to two other posts.

First student response: (Kaven)

The subject of inequality among Asian American actors have not changed and will remain the same until we see drastic changes within the movie industry, especially with Hollywood films. We can look back in history and compare the racial injustice currently being displayed in today’s theatre culture. An Asian American actress by the name of Anna May suffered the reality of being Asian in Hollywood. She was snubbed for a role due to “unwritten rules” in the 1940s, which prohibited interracial romance. Rob Schneider who is a quarter Filipino is the only “Asian” American who actually is able to land roles depicting his ethnicity. I understand that Hollywood and all the major movie companies need to make money to cover the budget and so forth, but sooner or later “Yellow face casting” is going to blow up in their face, similarly like the #metoomovement, it’s just a matter of time.

Second student response: (Justice)

I think that one of the main themes I found through the readings was that Asian Americans are restricted on the types of stories they can write about, mainly when it comes to the writing stories that might not be seen as Asian American. For example, if an Asian America writer were to write a play about 17th century England, it would be rejected as not Asian American, though it comes from an Asian American writer and playwright. I believe that as time progresses, this might change and a time where people from any heritage can write about specific places and times in history without the thought of having to cast people of specific races,

The interview video of David Henry Hwang was very interesting to me! His analyzation of multiculturalism within the theater is quite great considering he recognizes that plays can question and contradict race. I think that my opinion when it comes to Asian American theater has changed over the past week or so, Mainly, because I now see the many great theaters and theater productions that have been created with the thought in mind of promoting actors of Asian American races.

Before completing these studies, I did not consider or think much about the Asian American Theater within the realm of theater productions. Learning this week that Los Angeles is home to one of the oldest and most prominent Asian American theater organizations, East West Players, was truly rewarding as I grew up and was raised in Los Angeles. I believe that the Asian American public can be better served by having color-blind-casting within Hollywood television and film productions.

This discussion assesses your ability to:

1. Determine the impact that current federal legislation has on the compliant implementation of special education programs, and
2. Justify the legal components of a Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE).

This assessment also supports your achievement of Course Learning Outcome 2, 3, 4 and the MASE Program Learning Outcome 4, 5, and 6.

One of the key components of the IDEA is that all students with disabilities have the right to receive a Free Appropriate Public Education (FAPE). This means “a free appropriate public education is available to all children with disabilities … between the ages of 3 and 21, inclusive, including children with disabilities who have been suspended or expelled from school” (IDEA – Building The Legacy of IDEA 2004,” n.d., para 1).

All school districts are required to provide related services to appropriately address the state’s education standards at no cost to the parents. While the term “appropriate” however, has been a topic of debate among families, educators and school districts, one commonly accepted definition is “…growth on standardized tests from year to year, classroom performance, attendance, behavior, progress on goals and objectives, and report card grades” (Baumel, 2011, What is FAPE, para. 3). The laws aim is that all students with disabilities will receive an education equal to that of their non-disabled peers to the maximum extent possible, in the general classroom setting.

Mr. Franklin and you are facing a situation with Destini Marlow, a student in your class who has been assessed and met the eligibility requirements as a child with a Specific Learning Disability in the area of reading. Over a period of time, she has demonstrated gaps in her learning specifically in the area of reading comprehension and basic reading skills. Her Individualized Education Program (IEP) includes individualized supports to assist her these learning challenges. Currently, Destini, has earned a “C” for her first quarter grade. Since the beginning of the school year you have provided Destini an “appropriate education” with services that were tailored to meet her specific needs as outlined in her IEP and agreed upon by all members of the IEP team. You have documented that she is making progress on her IEP goals and provided her parents with reading activities to use at home that are consistent with her grade level.

On Monday of this week, Destini’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Marlow, inquired if she was receiving FAPE in accordance with her IEP and the IDEA.

Initial Post: After reviewing IDEA 2004 Close Up: Evaluation and eligibility for specific learning disabilities (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. and the required reading for this week, write a letter from your perspective as the special education teacher that could be sent home to Destini’s parents explaining FAPE legislative guidelines, in layman’s terms. Summarize what the school is required to provide for Destini, who has challenges that affect her reading skills, to provide her with a free appropriate public education.

In-N-Out Business Strategy

In-N-Out Burger as a franchise has developed a business strategy which consist of growing slowly, yet steadily (Cafferky, 2012, p. 587). After reading the case study on In-N-Out, I can conclude the restaurant’s leadership values quality, precision, and loyalty. My assumption is their strategy is slow to insure they make the right decisions and are successful in all they do. If the company rushed it could lead to a decrease in the company’s quality. Slow and steady wins the race. In 2006, the plan was for In-N-Out to open 10 to 12 stores a year for the next five years. I believe this franchise is wise to continue to grow, yet in increments. Some negatives to this strategy in the long-term is this restaurant could be choked out of existence. As other restaurant franchises grow quickly and move across the nation and into other countries. In-N-Out’s niche of simplicity and quality could be lost in the rapid development of competitors. However, I believe this will not be a huge problem for In-N-Out Burger. It may be wise for their leadership to investigate ways to prevent this from happening. A business strategy must be effective and efficient, yet hard-to-imitate (Teece, 2010, p. 180). In-N-Out Burger, has a hard strategy to overcome by the quality they hold in their product which, so many competitors rarely think about. Competitors in the fast-food industry often have plans for fast, cheap, and easy. In-N-Out has none of these qualities in their business strategy.
