Not only does this activity indirectly help prepare children for handwriting, it prepares them for practical life skills using real not play materials. In a far corner you notice other children engaged in activities that would broaden and refine their sensory impressions. One child was touching different fabrics; another child was smelling cotton balls moistened with different odors. A third child was playing with boxes that when shaken makes different sounds.

Where have you seen evidence of a successful commitment to diversity, equity or inclusion at your organization?

After reflecting on Module 7’s assigned resources (listed below), consider your internship site’s commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion. Begin by looking at your organization’s website for a statement of diversity, equity or inclusion (most y organizations or companies will have one). If your organization doesn’t have a statement on their website, look for an organizational mission statement or a corporate social responsibility statement. Read the available resources, consider your experience working at this site, and answer the following questions. (Note: Please do not use “diversity,” “equity,” and “inclusion” interchangeably since they refer to different things.) Make sure to integrate at least one required course into your answer.Where have you seen evidence of a successful commitment to diversity, equity or inclusion at your organization? Is your experience with the organization consistent with the organization’s statement on diversity, equity and inclusion? Please provide specific examples.Are there places where your host organization could more effectively pursue diversity, equity or inclusion?As you answer these questions you might consider: diversity of employees and organizational leaders, culture of inclusion, training around diversity, equity, or inclusion provided to staff, discussion of DEI issues in relation to the organization or the work that is performedWhat are some ways that you can commit to promoting equitable, diverse and inclusive work spaces? (Both in your current internship and in your future work experiences).Submission guidelines:Your journal should be approximately 300-350 words in length and should address each question in the assignment directions.Please integrate at least one source into your response and cite appropriately, using APA.

Explain how the environment you have created would encourage development of the creative self in young children in each area of your classroom.

Throughout this course, we have been discussing becoming the Whole Teacher. One of the five pillars of becoming the Whole Teacher is to find ways to encourage child-centered active learning. As we learned through our conversations in the discussion forums this week, two elements that contribute to the development of this type of learning environment are the physical and creative aspects of the classroom. In your assignment this week, you will have the opportunity to demonstrate your understanding of how to foster a physical and creative learning environment that promotes child-centered active learning by completing a grant application.At the monthly administrator’s meeting for ABC Early Childhood Center, the regional director shared with you a grant opportunity for early childhood centers to receive a grant of $5000 to remodel your center to stimulate physical activity and promote creativity for your students. The regional director encouraged you all to apply and you have decided to take them up on their suggestion and complete a grant application.In your grant application:Describe your current educational setting, including the age of children (0-2, 3-5, or 6-8), number of children you work with, and the philosophy of your education setting. You can base this either on the education setting in which you are currently working or you can create a fictitious center. (.5 points)Design the classroom environment that you would create with the grant money that is based on developmentally appropriate strategies and tools to promote optimal cognitive development and learning in young children. To create your illustration you may use Classroom Architect(Links to an external site.), Scholastic Class Set-Up Tool(Links to an external site.), or Kaplan Floor Planner(Links to an external site.). Attach a copy of your classroom design to your grant proposal. (2 points)Discuss how the design of your classroom environment aligns with Figure 1.1 from the text and is supported by current research about optimal classroom environments. (1 point)Explain how the environment you have created would promote optimal physical development and learning in young children in each area of your classroom. Use specific examples from your illustration and research to support your decisions. (1.5 point)Explain how the environment you have created would encourage development of the creative self in young children in each area of your classroom. Use specific examples from your illustration and research to support your decisions. (1.5 point)Summarize how the grant money will help you to ensure you can create a learning environment that promotes child-centered active learning and 21st-century skills. (2 points)

Describe the purposes of a literature review.

Before beginning work on this week’s discussion post, review the following resources:From the below list, select one topic for which you will lead the discussion in the forum this week. Early in the week, reserve your selected topic by posting your response (reservation post) to the Discussion Area, identifying your topic in the subject line. By the due date assigned, research your topic and start a scholarly conversation as you respond with your initial or primary post to your own reservation post in the Discussion Area. Make sure your response does not duplicate your colleagues’ responses.Describe the purposes of a literature review.Compare how literature reviews are used in qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods approaches.Outline the steps in conducting a literature review.Discuss the significance and meaning of a problem statement (or purpose statement).Synthesize key concepts in a way that articulates a clear point, position, and conclusion supported by research. Select a different bullet point than what your classmates have already posted so that we can engage several discussions on relevant topics. If all of the bullet points have been addressed, then you may begin to reuse the bullet points with the expectation that varied responses continue.The final paragraph (three or four sentences) of your initial post should summarize the one or two key points that you are making in your initial response.As the beginning of a scholarly conversation, your initial post should be:Succinct—no more than 500 words.Provocative—use concepts and combinations of concepts from the readings to propose relationships, causes, and/or consequences that inspire others to engage (inquire, learn). In other words, take a scholarly stand.Supported—scholarly conversations are more than opinions. Ideas, statements, and conclusions are supported by clear research and citations from course materials as well as other credible, peer-reviewed resources.Engage in a discussion with at least two colleagues and respond to questions from your professor by the end of the week.For grading:The reservation post and initial post are assessed in the rubric line item “Quality of initial posting.”Neither the reservation post nor the initial post count toward days of participation.Follow-up posts made throughout the week to your colleagues and professor will apply to participation points in the rubric.All posts will be assessed for writing mechanics and information literacy. Be sure to review the expanded rubric for more details on grading criteria.
