Description Both the Asch Conformity experiments and the Milgram Obedience study were repeated many times while varying small factors like where the participants were placed relative to the confederates (actors that were instructed to act like participants), where the study took place, and how many confederates there were. In varying the protocol in each of these studies, we discovered that certain variables have an impact on an individual’s likelihood to conform or obey. Watch this video that summarizes several of the influential variables on conformity and obedience. video : https://youtu.be/LG6H_8BU-f4 After watching the video, describe the relationship that you see between the fundamental attribution error and the conformity and obedience experiments. What implications do you see for making moral decisions or for resisting conformity and obedience?

Description QUESTION 1 : Overview In this activity, you will practice the skill of reading a research study. This activity builds on the Module Two Activity assignment and prepares you for Project Two, where you will critique a research study. Each rubric criterion below contains a word-count goal. These are guides to help you respond at the right level of depth and specificity. Prompt Summarize the research study’s purpose. Your response should be about 25 to 50 words. Describe the relevance of the publication dates of the citations referenced for the research study. Your response should be about 25 to 50 words. Consider the following: Are some of those cited sources recent (relevant to date of publication)? Identify the type of claim the research study makes. Explain your response. Your response should be about 25 to 50 words. Consider the following: Is the claim frequency based, association based, or causal? Describe the research method used in the research study. Your response should be about 25 to 50 words. Consider the following: Is the research method qualitative, quantitative, or mixed? Describe the research study’s data collection method. Your response should be about 50 to 100 words. Consider the following: Possibilities for data collection include surveys, observations, interviews, archive review, objective or biological measures, or some combination of those listed. Describe the research study’s sample. Your response should be about 50 words. Include the following in your response: Sample size Sample characteristics Describe one type of statistical analysis conducted in the research study. Your response should be about 25 words. Describe one limitation from the research study. Your response should be about 25 to 50 words. Describe how this research study could be used in personal and professional practice. Your response should be about 25 to 50 words. Consider the following: How can the findings from this study be used by people in their work, personal lives, or to help others? QUESTION 2 : Tests and measurements have become a primary focus in our government's efforts to improve education in the U. S. One of the more common complaints of the outcome of this effort is that teachers are being pressured to teach tests rather than providing a broad-based education that includes both the sciences and creative arts. As a new teacher how would you go about meeting both intended outcomes?
Description The purpose of this assignment is to demonstrate leadership within the professional learning process by creating systems to ensure sharing, collaboration, and reflective feedback. Research and design a system that uses technology for shared learning (or professional development) among school staff. Outline a structure that will allow teachers and staff to share best practices from supplemental learning experiences (e.g., information from conferences, workshops, formal coursework). In 500-750 words, answer the following questions about your technology-based shared learning system: How will professional learning topics be evaluated for relevance and worthiness prior to being shared? How will the professional learning be shared? How will the shared information be applied or implemented into professional practice? How will teachers provide reflective feedback on what they implemented as a result of the professional learning? What is an appropriate timeline for sharing information, implementing concepts, and monitoring professional learning outcomes?
Description OLD-FASHIONED” VERSUS MODERN PREJUDICE As you observed in previous weeks, social identity theory, also known as “SIT”, is a rich source for understanding intergroup relations. SIT provides a theoretical foundation for understanding how the mere perception of belonging to a group is sufficient to trigger preferential treatment of ingroup members. For this Assignment, you use insights from SIT to explain the origins of prejudice, stereotyping, and discrimination of outgroup members from the media in this week’s Learning Resources. You will then use SIT to suggest how the prejudice, stereotyping, and discrimination of outgroup members in the media might be reduced. The Assignment Explain how you might use social identity theory to account for the origins of prejudice, stereotyping, and discrimination depicted in the media example. Explain how you might apply social identity theory to reduce prejudice, stereotyping, and discrimination in the media example. Required Media Walden University, LLC. (Executive Producer). (2012). Prejudice, stereotyping, and discrimination. Baltimore, MD: Author.Note: The approximate length of this media piece is 7 minutes.
Description After watching the video please write a two (2)-three (3) paragraph reflection about what you saw. Specifically, your reflection should include a discussion addressing the following: -What was your initial reaction to watching the video? What emotions did the video arouse in you? - What information from the video stood out to you the most and why? - In what way do you think the information presented in the video related to the concepts discussed in chapter 11? - Did the videos increase your understanding of these disorders? Did they change your perspective in any way (yes, no, and why)?
Description For your final disorder,choose aDSM-V disorder and a specific population affected by the disorder (e.g., veterans and PTSD;homeless individuals and schizophrenia;teen girls and anorexia; men andborderline personality disorder; children and bipolardisorder,etc.).You can be as broad or asspecific as you’d like. The guidelines for this paper are very broad. As you have the freedom to choose a variety of diagnoses, students will likely find different materials/research. The main topics that should be covered are Disorder (introduce the diagnosis, discuss diagnostic criteria and/or clinical presentations in the population you chose, how/why the disorder affects this group [does it manifest differ, occur frequently/infrequently, etc.], possible causes) , Treatment , and Sociocultural or experiential influences (do any specific factors like race, ethnicity, gender, class or socioeconomic status, stigma, or any events (traumatic events, past or historical trauma, use of substances, etc.) that may influence the onset/duration/manifestation of or treatment of this disorder?). You don’t need to make your paper flow in that specific order (disorder – treatment – influences). Rather, you just want to hit on these topics within your paper. Consider the following areas for your Paper: • Diagnosis & population o Describe the DSM-V diagnosis and its criteria o Discuss any important subtypes if they exist o Introduce your population • Symptoms o Do the symptoms present differently in your selected population? If so, discuss how this disorder likely presents o Why may the symptoms look different for this selected population compared to a more traditional “textbook” case of the disorder? What factors may contribute to this? • Prevalence rates o Is your selected population affected by this diagnosis at different rates than the general population? If so, why? • Treatment o What methods are effective in treating the diagnosis in your selected population? o Does your selected population typically not receive effective treatment? Why may this be? ? Is there a stigma that this population may face? o What treatment disparities, if any, exist? o Are there any culturally-specific treatments available that can be used? Are they effective? • Any other sociocultural influences/aspects that are relevant and important to this disorder?
