3Qs Discussion Post 2
For each half-page post, students will be prompted to think about three different “Qs” as they relate to the assigned material of each learning module:

Step 1: Describe something from the reading that surprised you, challenged you, piqued your interest, or made you curious.
Step 2: Explain why it impacted you in this way.
QUOTE: Identify a specific part of the reading that you found memorable or quotable, and type it out in the form of a word-for-word quote (no more than two sentences).
Step 1: Type out the quote (Don’t forget the quotation marks (“”)!!!)
Step 2: Give the specific page number(s) from which you took your quote, if applicable.
QUESTION: Write a critical thinking question about the reading.
-This is not a critical thinking question: How old was Phyllis Wheatly when she wrote this poem?
-This is a critical thinking question: According to the background statement on Phyllis Wheatley, she was a teenager when she started writing—but also very young and poor when she died. This Wheatley poem was extremely positive about white colonial slaveholders and white Christianity, especially for someone who was enslaved. How might the tone of her poem be different if she had survived poverty, illness and disappointment and wrote it at an older stage in life?

Identify two activities, strategies, or techniques you will recommend to the parent to promote a smooth drop-off and support separation anxiety.
Scenario
You have been an infant/toddler teacher for the past 20 years, and you have noticed a big change — very young children are being exposed to the use of smartphones and tablets. You understand that while children do learn from media and touchscreens, it is easier for young children to learn from engaging, hands-on experiences.
At drop-off this morning, a parent enters your infant classroom holding their cell phone up to 3-month-old’s face so that he can watch a cartoon video. They mention this is the only effective way to calm the otherwise fussy baby when they hand the baby over to you and leaves for work each morning. You understand that it takes babies a lot of effort to watch screens and you have noticed that watching the screen on their cell phone makes the baby very tired. Since the baby is not yet old enough to turn their head away for a rest, you notice that baby becomes instantly distressed.
As the parent takes off the baby’s coat and hangs it in their cubby, you notice that the parent props up their cell phone so that the baby can continue to watch the cartoon videos on the screen. Suddenly, you notice a scary image appears across the screen during an advertisement. The imagery includes a monster and horrible faces, and you know that scary visual images can stay in a young child’s mind for a long time. This kind of imagery can pop up no matter what else is going on in the cartoon video or how lovable the characters are. Babies can be scared when a normal-looking character transforms into a frightening one, particularly if they see the character changing. Scary images or scenes can upset babies.
Directions
You have decided to plan a one-on-one parent-teacher conference with this parent to encourage them to avoid passive screen time as much as possible and consider engaging and interacting with their baby when incorporating technology throughout the day. For example, joining in by dancing and pointing to lyrics as the baby moves along to a dance video, or interacting with the baby while reading an eBook by asking questions, discussing pictures, etc.
In preparation for this meeting, you are going to write a 3-4 page reflection in APA format to gather your thoughts in one place regarding the ethical concerns discussed in the scenario.
Address the following items in your reflection:
- Ethical Concerns:
- What ethical concerns do you have regarding this scenario? Considering the Department of Education’s Guiding Principles for Use of Technology with Early Learners Guiding Principles, provide at least three examples.
- Do you believe allowing the baby to watch cartoon videos on the cell phone was a good idea or not? Explain your answer.
- Describe why you believe this situation might violate the guidelines? What do the Departments recommend in situations like this?
- What is your ECE program’s policy on developmentally appropriate technology use for children under three years of age?
- Consequences:
- Consider Guiding Principles #1-4 and how they help guide teachers’ and parents’ decisions in situations like this one. What are some potential negative consequences for the teacher, for the parent, and the child?
- Do you believe, as the teacher, you could get in trouble for this parent’s actions? Explain your answer.
- Could the parent get in trouble for this action? Explain your answer.
- Recommendations:
- What are some boundaries you might set regarding parent-child interactions during drop-off times?
- How will this result in a more positive outcome?
- If you were the parent in the scenario, what would you have done differently to soothe and calm the baby during drop-off?
- Identify two activities, strategies, or techniques you will recommend to the parent to promote a smooth drop-off and support separation anxiety.
Make sure to:
- Include an introduction and conclusion framing the scenario.
- Include APA citations to all sources used for this assignment, including a title page and reference page in APA format. Also include in text citations, if appropriate. You will need to cite at least three resources that were used to collect information for this assignment. You may use resources from the course lesson content or the Rasmussen library.

Explain what input, output, and outcome measures are in general.
A precinct commander instructs members of his or her command regarding the unit’s fiscal management strategies, goals, and objectives.
STEP 1: Imagine you are a precinct commander, and your Police Chief requests your help in submitting a budget request for 5 additional patrol officers in response to rising crime rates.

Specific inputs should lead to specific outputs, resulting in desired outcomes.
For your proposal, be sure to:
- -Explain what input, output, and outcome measures are in general.
- -Include a minimum of 3 of each measure (Input, Output, Outcome).
- -Describe each measure in detail as it applies to your request for the additional 5 officers.
