Locate on the internet a video of an interview. You may choose a news interview or any other interview you can locate.

Your job is to review the interview, and identify at least three instances of the use of interview techniques (paraphrase, summary, silence, reflection, or interpretation). In your discussion post, provide quotes of what the interviewer and interviewee said (or did not say in the case of silence) that demonstrate each interview technique. Be sure to identify the technique for which you are providing each example.

After you identify the interview techniques (you may use the same technique or different ones) with your three examples, also provide an analysis of the effectiveness of each technique. That is, was the technique effective? How did the interviewee respond to the technique?

Be sure to provide a link to the video clip you are analyzing so that your classmates may also view the clip. Please be sure you cite all the sources you used in the assignment.

In your response posts to your classmates, view the clips that your classmates have located. Do you agree with the techniques that your classmates have identified? Your classmates’ analysis of the effect of the technique? Please explain why you agree or do not agree.

attitudes and personality traits, assignment help

/in /by

You should have read and now understand attitudes and personality traits. Effective leaders know themselves and work to maximize their strengths and minimize their weaknesses. As the name of this exercise implies, you can improve your attitudes and personality traits through this exercise by following these steps.

1. Identify strengths and weaknesses. Review the six self-assessment exercises in this chapter. List your three major strengths and areas that can be improved:

Strengths:
1.
2.
3.
Areas to improve:
1.
2.
3.

We don’t always see ourselves as others do. Research has shown that many people are not accurate in describing their own personalities, and that others can describe them more objectively. Before completing this exercise, you may want to ask someone you know well to: 1) complete your personality profile (see Self-Assessment 1 on page 32), 2) rate your attitude as positive or negative, and 3) list your strengths and areas for improvement.

Essay #2 (1000+ words)

You have a few options for this essay.

  1. Build upon your first essay by adding a second primary source that
    we have read to date, something that enhances the ideas you examined in
    the first essay, something that amplifies, contrasts, extends the
    conversation, thus enriching the reader’s understanding.
  2. Take the same idea you examined in the first essay and substitute
    two new primary sources we’ve read instead of the source you wrote about
    before.
  3. Change the idea that you looked at in the first essay to a new one,
    then pick two primary sources we have read that have something
    significant to say about that idea (this may or may not include the book
    you wrote about in essay 1).

No matter which option you pick you will be doing the following:
writing a longer essay about an idea or theme as represented in two
books that we have read, and using only your own analysis of those books
(no library sources necessary), examine what happens when you put those
two books in conversation with one another about this idea. Compare
treatments of the idea and show where ideas overlap and correlate. Also
look for places where the sources clash, conflict, contrast in their
treatment of the idea. Based on the degree of correspondence, you will
have a better idea of how to focus and organize the essay. In some cases
the correspondences will outweigh the disparities. In other cases, the
distinctions and differences should be the primary focus. It all depends
on what you find in the texts.

Here’s another way to think about it: if you think of your topic as a
room of ideas, how does the one author illuminate hidden corners or
blind spots in the other’s thought? How does one author highlight truths
or expose flaws in the other’s thinking? Or, what parts of that room
are in full view, illuminated with shared intensity by both (clearly
shared assumptions, common ideas, points of agreement)? If you find
divergences, different accounts or explanations between the authors, and
you find that your own thoughts are gravitating towards one author more
than the other, consider using the one you favor as a wedge against the
other. Imagine them in dialogue with each other. How would they react
to what the other says? Use indirect discourse to speak on their behalf.

Another possibility is to use one author (say, Douglass) as a means of understanding and explaining the other author(s) in Letters to My Younger Self. This approach would perform an interpretation or “reading” of the other text from the point of view of one author.

There is no one magic solution to this puzzle. You have to play with
different options and find a focus and method that works best for your
topic. All of this mental preparation will require you to revisit your
first essay and adapt its content. Feel free to reshape as needed. Some
cases will require radical revision and expansion and changes of focus.
We will brainstorm topic possibilities in class and provide suggestions
for how the original topics for essay 1 might be retrofitted for this
installment of the progressive paper sequence. You are always welcome to
see me during office hour to discuss, too.

Avoid the use of secondary sources for this assignment. Save
them for essay 3. The only sources cited should be your primary sources
from both books, and don’t forget your Works Cited page.


Tips. Don’t force your content into a stock
five-paragraph essay format. Come up with a paragraph sequence dictated
by your focus and your content. Also do not simply tack on extra
paragraphs to your first essay: very bad idea. This is a recipe for a
low grade. Instead, rework what you have written before. You may have to
strip away paragraphs that don’t fit the new rhetorical scheme to make
room for your discussion of the second author. You may want to condense
your summary of the first author’s ideas. You may want to reduce your
critique section or take it out entirely. What you are essentially doing
here is something that academics do all the time: they repackage ideas,
rethink conclusions, restate arguments in new terms, and see what sense
can be made of a topic when pitting one source against another. To
conclude, here are your objectives for this assignment:

  • Represent ideas from multiple sources (in this case, primary sources) with accuracy and clarity
  • Elaborate on ideas covered in the first essay. Further clarify your own thinking about the topic
  • Improve your writing style, conventional usage, and documentation skills
  • Synthesize content from more than one source, using one to explain the other and vice versa

Social media and its impact on the norm

/in /by

Instructions

The prevalence of social media has had a huge impact on society in the area of how we tend to relate to each other and on what is considered to be normal in general. Taking a look at the ways in which social media changes attitudes and “norms” makes for an interesting study, and one that is applicable to understanding how society is slowly changing over time.

For this assignment, you will first conduct your own research on the effects of social media on societal norms (Part 1), then you will examine what has been found through previous research conducted by others (Part 2).

PAPER SHOULD BE A MINIMUM OF 4 PAGES WITH AN ADDITIONAL TITLE AND REFERENCE PAGE. APA FORMAT. MAKE SURE YOU INCLUDE THE INTERVIEWEES ON THE REFERENCE PAGE. ( PART 1 IS 2 PAGES AND PART 2 IS 2 PAGES) AT LEAST 2 CREDIBLE SOURCES.

Part 1:

Compare and contrast the attitudes of two cohorts of people; one that consists of five people that rarely use social media and one cohort of five people that uses social media 2 or more hours a day.

Create a list of five people that you know that use social media at least 2 or more hours per day. This group of people will make up your first cohort. Then create a list of five people that you know that either do not use social media or use it very rarely. Take into account age when creating the cohorts, and try to keep the ages as similar as possible between the cohorts. Keeping a certain level of consistency in the two cohorts will help to negate the potential effects of generational differences. Provide a brief description of each of the ten people you are going to interview divided into their respective cohorts.

In other words, list the five people that uses social media at least 2 or more hours a day, and provide a brief description of each along with why you chose them. Then provide a list of the five people that rarely or never use social media, and provide a brief description of each along with why you chose them.

Interview the participants to learn the similarities and differences between the two cohorts as it relates to attitudes, lifestyles, and relationships. Write a two-page paper comparing and contrasting what you learned about the two cohorts. Be sure to relate your findings to cultivation theory and socialization theory in the paper.

Part 2:

Now you will compare your research with research findings through previous research conducted by others. Look up at least 3 articles that relate to the topic of social media and its impact on society. You are not limited to articles that are strictly written on the specific topic of social media and norms. Articles that are covering social media and society are available from a wide number of angles. After studying these articles, write a two-page paper on what you learned on the topic of social media and its potential impact on societal attitudes, customs, and norms.

ESE 633 Collaborative Relationships Transition D1, assignment help

/in /by

This discussion is your opportunity to achieve the week’s learning objective to examine the history and service delivery options for students with a disability. This discussion aligns with Course Learning Outcome 3.

This week’s readings provided you with a look into the history of individuals who addressed the academic interests of children with disabilities. These individuals accepted many roles during the process because often there were no legal safeguards against social, academic, or legal injustices.

Starting in the United States in the 1960s, advocates for children with disabilities began a strong campaign for equality. The Education for All Handicapped Children Act (EAHCA) was passed in 1975 with reauthorizations, updates, and refinements occurring continuously. Contemporary special educators continue to serve in multiple roles advocating for equality in schools, communities, and workplaces. Although the federally mandated role of special educators has evolved notably, public education for children with disabilities continues to be a dynamic and progressive area of practice.

Initial Post – Begin by reading Chapter 1 in Murawski and Spenser (2011). Next, using the Ashford University Library or another source for scholarly writings, conduct additional research to explore the trends since 1950 in the United States related to service and delivery options for students with disabilities.

Then, construct a one paragraph response for each of the following: (a) examine how the special educator’s role has evolved as student rights have changed, including consideration for compulsory education, education placement, and education rights protected by federal law; (b) examine trends in special education and the special educators’ role in public education historically and hypothesize how that role might change in the next decade; and (c) identify leaders and other notable figures who have advanced legislation for and practice of special education since the 1950s.

Workplace Engagement

/in /by

Studies on workplace engagement have identified that while drivers for engagement may depend on generations, position and other factors, there are some drivers that emerge as important for all employees, regardless of these differences: the way in which senior managers communicate with employees and employee voice.

As the CEO of an organization, discuss how you would integrate these findings in your day-to-day functions (staffing, training, motivation and communications). Specifically, what is your strategy for:

  1. Making the link between employees’ work and the broader organizational goals?
  2. Ensuring that employees have a voice—so as to express their views, opinions and recommendations and have them taken seriously?
  3. Sharing the vision of the organization and inspire employees to fulfill that purpose and achieve the vision?

Your paper should be a maximum of 3 pages long, with a title page and maximum of 5 references in APA style.
