develop an action plan that sets up opportunities for  children to learn to understand, respect, and embrace differences and  act/interact in unbiased and fair ways.

Consider analyzing specific ways in which to respond to and intervene with young  children when they exhibit prejudice, misconceptions, fear, and/or  rejection of differences with respect to culture, language, and economic  class. You will develop an action plan that sets up opportunities for  children to learn to understand, respect, and embrace differences and  act/interact in unbiased and fair ways. Your action plan will focus on  the four aspects of creating an anti-bias learning community:

  • Positive interactions with children
  • Positive relationships with and among families
  • The visual and material environment
  • Curriculum planning

See the attached form “Creating an Anti-Bias Learning Community: Diversity of Culture, Language, and Economic Class. Plan activities and experiences to  help children expand their understanding of diversity, build respect for  others, and overcome negative and biased feelings, you will complete  this form and ultimately submit it as your application.

Consider the statements below that could reflect the voices of young  children. Choose one of the statements to be the focus of your analysis.

  • “Gabriel is stupid. He doesn’t even speak our language. Why doesn’t he learn English?” (Boy, 6)
  • “Go away! My mom says you’re a lazy Mexican! I’m not playing with you.” (Boy, 5)
  • “You can’t play with us – your clothes are old and ugly.” (Girl, 4)
  • “No, you can’t be the princess because your Daddy doesn’t have a car. You can be the maid.” (Girl 5)

With your selection in mind, begin to  consider activities, discussions, and other techniques you might put  into place to respond to the biases expressed in the statement.

Using  the “Creating an Anti-Bias Learning Community: Diversity of Culture,  Language, and Economic Class” form; record the child’s statement you  selected in the upper right-hand box. Then, for each of the four  anti-bias learning community elements listed on the left-side of the  form, think about at least two action items that will address the  misconceptions and biases revealed in the child’s statement to help all  of children with whom you work develop respect for diversity. Look at Chapter 4 of the course text, and other resources attached

How might  such experiences affect your own emotional, cognitive, and physical well  being?

Consider the following prompts:

  • Think about what you learned about classism, racism, gender stereotyping and  sexism, and other”-isms” prevalent in our society. Consider the ways in  which these “–isms” influence people’s well being.
  • Now, imagine that you are an early childhood professional who is  experiencing one or more of the “-isms” in your personal life. i.e.,  people are reacting to you with stereotypes and prejudice. How might  such experiences affect your own emotional, cognitive, and physical well  being? How might this impact your work with young children and their  families?

Reflect upon and respond to the prompt below:

  • Describe in detail the consequences you might expect for the  children and families with whom you work while you experience specific  “–ism(s)” in your own life. Include specific examples either those you  have and/or are experiencing or ones you would anticipate.

Evaluate the impact of data derived from wearable technology on healthcare technology.

Each healthcare organization has its own internal policies related to how data is managed. There are also federal guidelines and regulations regarding the use of patient data. The data harvested by healthcare organizations is no longer uniquely derived from HIT systems. Wearable technologies have emerged in the market. Mega companies like Apple and Samsung, have also teamed up with some telehealth platforms to connect doctors, institutions, and insurance companies.

Evaluate the impact of data derived from wearable technology on healthcare technology.

Include the following aspects in the discussion:

  • Select Apple’s Health Kit or      another consumer platform of your choice.
  • Discuss how the consumer wearable market is changing the      healthcare delivery process.
  • Summarize why cybersecurity continues to be a major obstacle      to consumer wearable adoption specifically in the H.I.T. space.
  • Discuss your personal perspective on how the lack of ethnic      diversity in data collection impacts the future of healthcare research.

What strategy would most effectively support the changes involved? How would you lead the change process?

Once the need for change has been identified and planning begins to enact it, educational and community leaders must apply strategies for successful implementation. As Fullan (2016) notes, proposed change is often made more complicated than it needs to be, and the most effective approach requires that, among other factors, strategies should be focused, memorable, and actionable. Consider the scenario you developed for this module’s Discussion 1. What strategy would most effectively support the changes involved? How would you lead the change process?
