Cognitive development between the ages of 7 and 11 is impressive, beginning with improvements in control processes, and increase in processing speed and capacity, and a growing foundation of knowledge. This chapter in our book discusses the views of Piaget and Vygotsky regarding the child’s cognitive development, which involves a growing ability to use logic and reasoning (as emphasized by Piaget) and to benefit from social interactions with skilled mentors (as emphasized by Vygotsky).Which main theory of cognitive development (Piaget, Vygotsky, Information Processing, etc) stands out the most to you? Why?

PART 1–
Purpose
Demonstrate how to express your emotions appropriately and effectively.
Recall importance of emotional intelligence in the workplace (see page 228 in textbook)
INSTRUCTIONS
Communicating for success is vital for success in the workplace. This discussion is about emotional intelligence and the positive effects at work.
As you studied the chapter on emotions, it is important to manage emotions according to role expectations and social norms (page 235 in textbook).
The goal is to create positive emotions (see page 254 in textbook) that create positive feelings when interacting with coworkers and customers alike. Additionally, include aspects of expressing emotions effectively as discussed on pages 238-242 of textbook.
Only use textbook and personal examples for this assignment.
For this discussion, the “student must post before seeing replies” has been activated, which means that you must contribute your idea before you can see what other have posted.
Make sure to post full entry for first posting to get potentially full credit.
Contribute your initial post to our discussion by Thursday, 11:59 p.m. In your post please include the following:
What would be your part in contributing to a positive work environment with your coworkers? If you do not have work experience, discuss positive emotions you experienced that you might have had participating on a sports team or in a volunteer capacity such as a fundraising event.
What nonverbal messages (body movements, tone of voice, eye contact, smiling) can you send that would create an enriching emotional environment. Ultimately, what strategies would you use to create your “dream job?”
Remember, arguably we all might have had in some way or another unsatisfactory experiences in the workplace but the focus in this discussion is on creating and maintaining a positive and polite work environment.

Cognitive development between the ages of 7 and 11 is impressive, beginning with improvements in control processes, and increase in processing speed and capacity, and a growing foundation of knowledge. This chapter in our book discusses the views of Piaget and Vygotsky regarding the child’s cognitive development, which involves a growing ability to use logic and reasoning (as emphasized by Piaget) and to benefit from social interactions with skilled mentors (as emphasized by Vygotsky).Which main theory of cognitive development (Piaget, Vygotsky, Information Processing, etc) stands out the most to you? Why? According to Piaget, school-age children are much better able than preschoolers to understand logical principles, provided the principles are applied to concrete examples. Because the school years are also a time of expanding moral reasoning, this chapter also looked at Kohlberg’s stage theory of moral development as well as current evaluations of his theory.
Additionally this chapter explores the information-processing perspective on cognitive development, beginning with the Gibson’s concept of affordances. It then discusses changes in the child’s processing speed and capacity, control processes, knowledge base, and metacognition. Linguistic development during the school years is also extensive, with children showing improvement in vocabulary and pragmatics. This is clearly indicated by their newfound delight in words and their growing sophistication at telling jokes. If you have ever spent time in a second grade classroom you can immediately tell what stage the children are in by who is telling and who is getting the jokes. Jokes become very funny to children at this age because of their newfound ability to hold 2 or more concepts in their head at the same time allowing them to fully understand the humor in the jokes they are telling and hearing.
Several days before the deadline, please post your response to one of the following (not all three):
Which main theory of cognitive development (Piaget, Vygotsky, Information Processing, etc) stands out the most to you? Why?
Which theory of language development (social learning, assimilation and accomidation, or operant conditioning) stands out the most to you? Why?
Share a personal experience (first hand or someone you know, respecting confidentiality) with learning disabilities and/or special education/inclusion.
Your post should be about 1 paragraphs long and should provide your unique perspective.

What do you think about the removal of Civil War monuments?

1- This is discussion will be on Iconoclasm and Cultural Desecration. Please read the the attachment before starting the writing.
2- Response will send to answer after the tutor send answer of number 1 discussion
—————————————————————————————————————–
Discussion Forum #4:Iconoclasm and Cultural Desecration:
In classes that involve the discussion of art and images, one of the assumptions is that the objects have a great deal of cultural value.This is presumed to be true even if their materials are not valuable, and even if their original function was not as a work of art, but as a devotional one.Clearly, images can have a great deal of power over viewers, and can spark highly emotional reactions.Architecture can be included in this category also, as the built environment and space are culturally and religiously important.
This assignment is rather topical, thus I want to put some current and past events involving iconoclasm, (lit. the smashing of images), into context, and have you think about and discuss them.I briefly covered in class the destruction of the Bamiyan Buddhas in 2001 by the Taliban. More recent issues cover the destruction of Islamic tombs and Assyrian monuments by ISIS, and the removal of Civil War monuments in the United States.Please read the following materials, and comment on the ones that you find most interesting.Please be respectful, as this is difficult material and I do not wish for anyone to feel attacked or offended.
Things to think about for yourself: Do you come from a cultural background in which images are used for worship and if so, in what ways does incorporating images into worship assist your spiritual experience?
Do you come from a cultural background in which images are not used or are proscribed for worship and if not, is there anything (buildings/space, text, liturgy etc.,that assists your spiritual experience?
Issues to Comment On:
What did you find interesting or noteworthy in these readings? How do past cross-cultural examples of iconoclasm and cultural desecration relate to current events?
What causes people to destroy images?Is it ever justified?
Reading:
1. Read the Wikipedia article on iconoclasm and note that iconoclasm has been practiced by many religions or cultures throughout history, often as a means to wield power and sometimes as a result of deeply held cultural beliefs.
This article on iconoclasm is very interesting and will provide important cross-cultural background:

Property ownership offers a path to wealth accumulation. In addition to blocking minorities using illegal tactics such as redlining drove property values down which prevented emerging middle class minority families from accumulating wealth at the same rates as white homeowners. It is also argued that this led to “ghettos” and other enclaves where poverty became rampant. If we look at what is happening today with continued housing segregation, it has been said that ending residential segregation in the United States is going to require a “moral commitment” from white America to make different choices about where to live. What is meant by “moral commitment,” and why is this commitment necessary from white America in order to end segregation? Of the three possible causes of segregation discussed in this chapter (economic factors, personal choice, and housing discrimination), which one do you think is the primary, or most important, cause of segregation today?

Chapter 7
Option 1 for chapter 7: The “Booker T. vs. W.E.B.” Contrasting perspectives on the best role of education for African Americans is one of the most notable historical debates with long running implications on this topic. Compare and contrast Booker T. Washington’s and W.E.B. Du Bois’s positions on the role of education in addressing racism and racial inequality in society as you understand it from the reading. From Du Bois’s perspective, why was Washington wrong about the issue (consider not only the question of access but also changes in culture, technological needs, etc. that have made vocational training highly coveted)?

Muslims complain that their religion is often portrayed in unjustifiably distorted ways and their religious icons are frequently ridiculed and disrespected under the guise of free speech. This has resulted in numerous violent protests leading to the loss of property and lives. Harris Zafar in “Demystifying Islam’s View of Free Speech” takes issue with those who resort to violence and argues in favor of peaceful discourse. However, he also disagrees with the idea of absolute freedom of speech and concludes by claiming that Islam’s approach to freedom of speech creates a more healthy and peaceful society. Identify and describe three of the arguments that he uses to support his claim. (2-3 paragraphs) After describing his arguments and interpretation of Islamic teachings, write your own views on his claim and supporting arguments. Do you agree or disagree with his claim that Islam’s approach to freedom of speech creates a more healthy and peaceful society?
