Choose three students from the Class Profile that require differentiation. Explain how you will differentiate the learning activity to meet each students individual needs.
Aligning learning objectives to instruction is an important element of the planning process. Additionally, there will be a diverse population of students to be considered in this process. Differentiating instruction means instructing diverse students in different ways to increase their likelihood of success. For this assignment, use the state learning standard and learning objective chosen in Topic 2, as well as the Class Profile, to complete the Aligned Learning Activities and Differentiation template.Include the following on the template:Plan and explain an aligned learning activity for the Class Profile.Choose three students from the Class Profile that require differentiation. Explain how you will differentiate the learning activity to meet each students individual needs.Include an appropriate home extension activity for each of the selected students.Support your findings with 2-3 resources.
What was the result of the extremism and how did the case end?
For this assignment, you will select a homegrown violent extremist from North America that we have not discussed in class and write a research paper by developing your own case study that addresses the four subject areas below: Develop an HVE case study of a group or individual of sound mind* not covered by our lessons. Some examples may include: Syed Farook and Tashfeen Malik in San Bernardino 2015, Muhammad Abdulazeez in Chattanooga 2015, Martin Couture-Rouleau or Michael Zehaf-Bibeau both in Canada 2014, Faisal Shahzad at Times Square in 2010, Carlos Bledsoe in Little Rock 2009, Eric Rudolph the right wing Atlanta Olympics bomber 1996, or even left wing extremists from the 1970s like The Weather Underground. What was the individual or groups grievance or cause?How was the individual or most group members recruited or draw to the cause?What was the process of radicalization? Which model discussed in this course most closely followed your case?What was the result of the extremism and how did the case end?*Note: If you choose a person, make sure you do not select someone who has a significant psychological disorder. As discussed in first week, this course specifically excludes those who are not of sound mind, since their extremism is not really the major factor behind their violence. For example, many mass shootings were undertaken by individuals who professed to have a political cause, but they turned out to be just exposing those beliefs without full comprehension or mental faculties. In other words, if the murderer was found unfit to stand trial (not mentally competent), then that is not an appropriate extremist for this paper. For these reasons do not select Robert Dear, Dylann Roof, Wade Michael Page and the like.While you can choose any North American homegrown violent extremist of sound mind that you want for this case study, I would highly recommend you select one who survived their attack and the trial is complete. Since you have to focus on why they did what they did, this is often impossible to assess if they were killed in the act (unless a manifesto was left behind). Additionally, if a case has yet to be tried in court, the defense often works hard to counter arguments of extremism before court and true motives become difficult to discern. If you pick someone killed in the act of terrorism, like at San Bernardino or Chattanooga then it is much more difficult to answer the questions assigned for this paper. In fact, in some cases it is impossible to do so if they did not leave behind any clear clues.This Midterm addresses the following course objectives:CO-1: Describe the psychological factors of terrorism as well as the ideologies that drive homegrown violent extremism.CO-2: Compare and contrast the different models and framework for the radicalization process.CO-3: Examine case studies of homegrown violent extremism in North AmericaTechnical RequirementsYour paper must be at a minimum of 3-5 pages (the Title and Reference pages do not count towards the minimum limit).Scholarly and credible references should be used. A good rule of thumb is at least 2 scholarly sources per page of content.Type in Times New Roman, 12 point and double space.Students will follow the current APA Style as the sole citation and reference style used in written work submitted as part of coursework. Points will be deducted for the use of Wikipedia or encyclopedic type sources. It is highly advised to utilize books, peer-reviewed journals, articles, archived documents, etc.All submissions will be graded using the assignment rubric.

What are the hypotheses if your group would like to determine if the population mean number of hours married men are spending in child care differs from the mean reported by Time in your area?
The time married men with children spend on child care averages 6.4 hours per week (Time, March 12, 2012). You belong to a professional group on family practices that would like to do its own study to determine if the time married men in your area spend on child care per week differs from the reported mean of 6.4 hours per week. A sample of 40 married couples will be used with the data collected showing the hours per week the husband spends on child care. Sample mean is 7, sample stdv. is 2.46.a. What are the hypotheses if your group would like to determine if the population mean number of hours married men are spending in child care differs from the mean reported byTime in your area?b. What is the sample mean and the p-value?c. Select your own level of significance. What is your conclusion?Part 1: Assume that we know sigma (the population stdev of ALL married men in your area their time spent on child care per week) is 2.5 hrs. Answer 30 (a) using BFDA and conducting a Normal Test for Mean with a significance level = 0.05.Part 2: Now answer 30 (a) assuming we DO NOT know sigma, the population stdev. Conduct a t-Test for Mean. For Step 4, use =TINV for the reject rule. For Step 5, use =TDIST for the p-value. Produce a new Results Table and Business Answer.
