Explain the basic principles or beliefs of the program and at least two specific reasons why you might single this type of program out as a career possibility.

  1. Drawing from the information presented in Chapter 6 of the Morrison course text on four early education programs—Montessori, High/Scope, Reggio Emilia, and Waldorf—identify the program that is of greatest interest to you based on your own philosophy of education and from the description in the course text. Explain the basic principles or beliefs of the program and at least two specific reasons why you might single this type of program out as a career possibility.
  2. Identify two types of child care programs described in Chapter 7 of the Morrison text that may interest you as potential programs in which to work. Explain the distinguishing characteristics of each type of program and why each might appeal to you as a career choice. Based on the “Ten Components of Quality Child Care” listed in Figure 7.2 on page 195, at this point in your learning, explain one contribution that you would like to make as an early childhood professional working in one of these child care programs.
  3. Drawing on your current knowledge of child development, explain the importance of the three performance standards that provide the foundation for Head Start programs today. Then identify two specific types of federal programs for young children and families that potentially interest you as programs in which to work (such as an area of Head Start that serves a special population or other initiatives). Briefly describe the purpose of each program and why it has special appeal to you.

Explain two insights or conclusions that you can draw from this site about career possibilities within the early childhood field.

  1. Consider the range of positions included on the Early Childcare and Education Career Guide Web site. Looking only at the position titles and career areas (and not at the information provided on the links), explain two insights or conclusions that you can draw from this site about career possibilities within the early childhood field.
  2. As you have learned, accommodating diverse learners is a characteristic of quality care and education programs. Choose one of the four jobs highlighted on the Personnel Improvement Center: Career Development Web site that is of most interest to you. Describe the role of this job in ensuring that children who may have special needs are supported in an early care and education program. Explain why the job appeals to you and what else you would need to know to consider it as a career direction.
  3. Based on the EmploymentJob Outlook, and Projections Data for each of the four positions from the Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Outlook Handbook Web site, summarize the job prospects for these positions in the early childhood field from now through the year 2016, and include the related figures from the Projections Data charts in your explanation. Then identify one or more positions that are of most interest to you in considering a career direction, and explain your choices.

What stressors during middle adulthood might contribute to such a crisis?Explain.

Individuals in middle adulthood experience both gains and losses in physical, cognitive, and psychosocial functioning. Middle adulthood can be a very positive experience. On the other hand, developmental issues associated with middle adulthood can be stressful. Understanding stressors experienced during middle adulthood is the key to effectively serving this age group.

Tasks:

Research evidence suggests that the midlife crisis is not a typical aspect of development. However, most people can provide anecdotal evidence of someone who has experienced such a crisis. Review the professional literature—articles from peer-reviewed journals and relevant textbooks—and answer the following questions:

  • What stressors during middle adulthood might contribute to such a crisis?
  • How might an individual’s multicultural identities affect the stressors experienced during middle adulthood?
  • What types of preventative or protective behaviors could prevent the individual from experiencing a developmental crisis?

Identify potential weaknesses from either the Aircraft Solutions or Quality Web Design Company.

Identify potential weaknesses from either the Aircraft Solutions or Quality Web Design Company

In this phase, you will choose either Aircraft Solutions or Quality Web Design as the company you will work with. The scenarios are in Doc Sharing in the Course Project select area. You will then identify potential security weaknesses.

Security weaknesses – You must choose two from the following three areas (hardware, software, and policy – excluding password policies) and identify an item that requires improved security.

To define the asset or policy with sufficient detail to justify your assessment, your assessment must include:

  • the vulnerability associated with the asset or policy
  • the possible threats against the asset or policy
  • the likelihood that the threat will occur (risk)
  • the consequences to mission critical business processes should the threat occur
  • how the organization’s competitive edge will be affected should the threat occur

To clarify an item that requires improved security, you must identify one of these items:

  • one hardware and one software weakness
  • one hardware and one policy weakness
  • one software and one policy weakness

Other required elements include:

  • Cover sheet
  • APA-style
  • In-text citations and Reference section
  • Minimum length 3 pages, maximum length 5 pages (not counting cover sheet, diagram(s), references). Do not exceed the maximum length.

Explain the importance of situating a society’s cultural and artistic expressions within a historical context.

Choose one (1) of the topics below and develop a three to four (3-4) paragraph essay (of at least 250-500 words) which adequately address the topic you have chosen.

Topic Choices

  • There have been many theories regarding how the pyramids at Giza were constructed. Most experts agree that they were constructed as burial monuments for pharaohs, but “how” these ancient people constructed monuments of such great size without modern machinery is a mystery which is still being debated.
  • No one can say for certain what happened to the great urban Mayan civilization, but theories abound and include varied possible alternatives to explain the relatively abrupt and mysterious disappearance of the Mayan civilization.
  • Tutankhamen died young, at approximately eighteen (18) years of age. However, his cause of death has been the subject of quite varied scholarly theories and conclusions. Did he die of an injury, of illness, of murder, or something else?.
  • Minoan Crete was a major civilization in its time, but several theories have been advanced to explain its demise, including speculations associating it with mythical Atlantis. What were the causes of Minoan Civilization’s decline?
  • Great Zimbabwe is an enormous complex of structures in East Africa. Since the builders and occupants left no written records, several theories have developed as to the identity of its builders and the functions of the structures. Which theory makes the most sense?
  • The monumental size and complexity of the Tomb of Shihuangdi is astounding, yet its location and construction details were to be kept secret. What was the emperor’s purpose for such an elaborate, secret burial place?
  • Other topic choice recommended and approved by the professor and supported by the grading rubric.

Write a three to four (3-4) paragraph paper in which you:

  1. Clearly state the “mystery” and provide a brief summary of at least two (2) reasonable and scholarly theories which could explain the mystery. Because some theories may sound far-fetched, include the source or promoter of each theory – such as a scientist, a historian, a theologian, etc.
  2. After summarizing at least two (2) scholarly theories, identify one (1) of the theories as the most plausible and provide at least two (2) convincing reasons why the theory you have chosen is the best one to explain the mystery. This will involve some critical reasoning skills on your part.
  3. Use at least two (2) sources plus the class textbook. (Three [3] sources total as the minimum) Note: Wikipedia and other similar Websites do not qualify as academic resources. You are highly encouraged to use the Resource Center tab at the top of your Blackboard page.
