Is CBT or DBT more effective at treating prolonged grief? 2. How do community members feel about a proposed homeless shelter being built near them?

In the first reflection discussion, you evaluated two sources of information about an empirical study. Empirical studies are primary sources of information and, as this module has shown, there are many ways to conduct a study. The different methods can be classified as qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods. 
Before you write your initial discussion post, 
read the assigned chapters and watch the videos 
(links attached on page 2) on types of methods and the difference between qualitative and quantitative research.

Next, address the three research questions below, being sure to include the following elements.

2. Note which method would be best for answering each question and explain how you came to that conclusion.
3. Lastly, locate one study from a peer-reviewed journal that addressed one of the questions. Provide the reference and tell us which method the researchers used to investigate the problem, and why you think they chose that method. For example, you might note that a study used an experiment to investigate the research question because the researcher wanted to establish a causal relationship between the independent and dependent variables and show whether an intervention or treatment worked.

Module 3 Required Readings & Resources

Berger and Luckmann state that we are born into an ‘objective social structure’ and that we have only a limited ability to subjectively appropriate and interpret it for ourselves. Discuss how the categories of race, gender, and class predate any one individual, and how we are bound to identify ourselves in relation to them. To what extent can an individual redefine themselves in relation to these categories, and what are the possible social sanctions they may face for doing so?

To what extent can an individual redefine themselves in relation to these categories, and what are the possible social sanctions they may face for doing so?Try to make your answer aroundand cite any pertinent sources from the course. 2:Though Sociologists have long studied race, class, gender, and other categories of identity, those who argue for the merits of Intersectional Theory claim that it offers a distinct advantage in understanding the power of such categories. What do you believe is that advantage? Put in terms of this course, how would studying diversity through the lens of Intersectional Theory give you a better understanding than studying diversity without it?Try to make your answer around and cite any pertinent sources from the course. 3:Matters of race, ethnicity, class, gender, and sexuality are often in the public eye, and tend to be at the center of many passionate (and unfortunately even violent) conflicts. While discussing diversity in the context of institutions and organizations remains important, it is as important to ask to what extent we accept diversity and difference as a society. One such case occurred August 11th, 2017 when a white nationalist group marched in protest of the potential removal of a statue of Robert E. Lee from the campus of the University of Virginia. Local organizations such as the NAACP and citizens of the town had argued that the statue (erected in 1924) needed to be removed as it was a symbol of the enslavement and oppression faced by blacks in the South. You may read more details of the case at the following link:The New York Times—The Statue at the Center of Charlottesville’s Storm – HTML The New York Times—The Statue at the Center of Charlottesville’s Storm – PDF Document (204 KB)Using the knowledge you’ve accumulated in this course, write a short letter to the editor of your local newspaper arguing why or why not you believe the removal of the statue from public view is in the interest of cultivating a more diverse society. Try to make your response between 750-1000 words, and cite at least two scholarly sources from course readings or your own research to support your argument.

Assistive Technology Interview
For your Final Project, you will apply your knowledge of AT and its benefit to individuals with special needs by interviewing an AT specialist either in a public school setting (elementary/middle/high), a therapy center (Sylvan, Huntington, speech & language therapy clinic), a private school, a federally funded center (Head Start, ARC, regional center), or another setting approved by your instructor. Your interview can take place in person, over the phone, or through electronic correspondence. 
You will need to ask a minimum of ten interview questions relating to AT devices and their use to support students with individual needs. You must be sure to touch on each of the topics listed below and ensure that the interviewee provides a detailed response. Include follow up questions when appropriate.
 

Choice of technology. 
How is the technology implemented? 
Funding (Did they receive grants? Where did the funds come from? How were funds allocated?)
Population served. 
Who is impacted? (Is there a universal impact or does it affect one student?) 
Incorporation into the curriculum 
How is training offered for the device(s)?
How are the technology devices maintained? (What happens if one breaks?)
Review likes and dislikes. 
Do they have any way to track whether it is beneficial to student learning? If so, how do they track this information? If not, why do they not have any way to track whether it is beneficial to student learning and how could they track this information? 

 
Interview Evaluation:  Prepare a presentation that summarizes the responses from your technology representative and analyzes the school’s application of assistive technology in supporting students with a disability.  The presentation must also include recommendations and justifications for additional assistive technology based on their specific student demographics.   Finally, you will describe how you can apply what you have learned during the interview process, in your current or future career, specific to instructional technology and working with students with a disability.
Organizing the Presentation: The presentation can be formatted using any of the previous options or resources shared during the course. You may choose a video, document, narrated PowerPoint, or blog, or you may choose your own way of presenting your findings, but it must be approved by your instructor. You must incorporate at least two forms of media into your presentation including (but not limited to) images, audio, video or web links. Your assignment must be written at a graduate level using APA formatting, and it must thoroughly address each of the interview topics. However, due to the flexible option for presentation, there is no required page limit. When appropriate, a title page or slide must be included and proper APA citations must be used for any sources or reference pages.
 
 

As we have discovered, jazz is a music that could only have developed in the United States. Only here did one find all the circumstances in place that lead to this great art form. However, as you will see, there are some brilliant jazz musicians that hail from around the world and may never have stepped foot on US soil or experienced the hardship of the people from whom this music sprung. How do you reconcile this seeming contradiction of great jazz emanating from musicians in say Europe or Asia?

Letter from the Birmingham Jail

The Civil Rights Movement began in order to help African Americans gain equal rights in the United States. Despite the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments, enacted during Reconstruction, African Americans experienced rampant abuse throughout the South. White Southerners hindered Blacks from participating in the political system, economic system, and social system in the South. African Americans who sought to challenge White dominance often experienced persecution that ranged from beatings and bombings to violent lynchings. In spite of all of the negative consequences of challenging White authority, many African Americans and their supporters continued to fight for racial equality. Different groups chose to take up the fight for civil rights in a variety of ways. The NAACP utilized the legal system to win rights for African Americans. Groups like CORE used non-violent direct action to fight against things like segregation. The Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC) an organization composed mainly of religious figures used a variety of methods to fight for rights. Often, members of the SCLC were arrested for protesting in the South and sometimes the organization used women and children in order to gain public sympathy for their cause. Not everyone who supported the movement agreed with these methods. In 1963, Martin Luther King, Jr., one of the leaders of the SCLC, was arrested and religious officials in Birmingham, AL responded by criticizing his methodology. In “Letter from the Birmingham Jail”, Martin Luther King, Jr. responds to his critics about how his actions also support the movement for civil rights. Why you are reading, think about Martin Luther King, Jr.’s methods and why some people may not agree with them.
Read the above paragraph and 

“Letter from the Birmingham Jail” 
<https://www.africa.upenn.edu/Articles_Gen/Letter_Birmingham.html> for your Essay Quiz #1.

Answer the following questions in a well-formed essay of at least 500 words:
Consequences–Why are people demonstrating in Birmingham? What are some of the consequences they may face as protesters? Why do you think they still chose to protest despite the harm it could do to them?
Understanding Ethical Choices–In his “Letter from the Birmingham Jail”, Martin Luther King Jr. argued that it is okay to disobey laws that are morally wrong because in reality when you disobey a morally bad law you are “expressing the highest respect for law”. How does he apply that belief to his fight for the rights of African Americans in the United States? Could he have done the same thing while also obeying the laws?
Intercultural Competence—What are some of the reasons why the author argues that African Americans cannot “wait” any longer for justice? Do all African Americans agree with the author or is there dissent among the community when it comes to pursuing justice? How do Southern Whites think about justice differently for the African American community (do Southern Whites think the African American community’s current situation warrants justice)? What cultural biases are preventing African Americans and Southern Whites from agreeing on this topic?
Knowledge of Civic Responsibility and Engagement with Communities–If you faced a similar circumstance to Martin Luther King, Jr., how would you react if the government issued a law that you felt was morally wrong or hurt your community? (Think about the kinds of avenues (legal or illegal) you have available for recourse against such a law and what things your community could do to fight against it.)
**Make sure to include an introduction and a conclusion to your essay.
