In every learning environment, instructors are faced with a multitude of challenges regardless of the age of the students. Students may be disengaged in the lesson, come unprepared, or even disrupt the instructional setting. Think of a particular situation and one instructional strategy that you could use to improve student learning and the instructional setting. Consider the different learning theories you have been exploring. Which learning theory best supports the strategy that you suggest? Be sure to support your strategy and evidence with readings from the text or another reliable source.
For this Assignment you will:
Introduce the learning challenge briefly and how it might impact the class (1 paragraph). Describe a specific instructional strategy that is based on a learning theory that could be used to improve the learning and motivation of the student and/or the classroom environment (1-2 paragraphs). Explain how the strategy is related to a specific and prominent theory of learning, development, and motivation and why you chose this strategy over others (1-2 paragraphs). Describe how you will assess the effectiveness of the strategy and why your assessment is appropriate to the setting. (1-2 paragraphs). Create your assignment in Microsoft® Word® and use APA style for formatting (including a cover page and running header), citations, and references.
Please note: This is a short, focused assignment that should contain a maximum of 7 paragraphs. It should be no longer than 2½ pages (double spaced), excluding cover page and references
Imagine that you work in a school. A number of people in your department are having a debate as to whether students should be expected to memorize material or not. Memorization has been an accepted practice in education for many years. But some people think students can learn information through methods other than memorizing.
*On the Discussion Board, explain how you would contribute to this debate. Be sure to support your reasoning using information you have read this week. After posting your contribution, please respond to at least two of your classmates’ contributions to the debate. Do you agree or disagree with their position and why?
Now that you have completed your Readings, and talked about learning methods, reflect on the five principles you reviewed. Describe an opening activity for a lesson you might teach and explain how the principles of maintaining on-task behavior apply to your opening activity. As you read your classmates’ posts, give them feedback on the activities they list. Are there some activities you might like to try as well?*
DISCUSSION 2
IMAGINE THIS SCENARIO
In the fall, you will be assigned to a new school. As a result of a massive redistricting and changing demographics, this school is very diverse, including ELL. In addition, the socioeconomic status varies widely with some affluent students and some students who live in poverty. While there are many resources in the school, a large number of the teachers are new or have fewer than 3 years of experience.
For this discussion, find an article in the University library PURDUE GLOBAL . In your post, provide a short summary of the article and use it to answer the following questions:
What steps would you take to ensure that instructional strategies incorporate culture, social class, ethnicity, gender, and language? Explain how these strategies will likely be effective. In what ways can those strategies be built into daily classroom activities? Provide an example. Include personal experiences with teaching diverse students that you have observed in the classroom or from your own school experiences. Compare your experiences with other learners in the course and discuss the implications for classroom instruction of the diversity of learning experiences that emerge from this analysis

Assignment 1 – Position Paper Educational leaders face many critical issues that must be addressed. In order to be fully informed, you must consider multiple perspectives, analyze your own perspectives, and be able to present a rationale for your beliefs and actions. In the past few weeks, you have been reading about learning theories, culture, and diversity.
For this assignment, you will choose and explore one of the following topics:
Is constructivism the best philosophy of education? Is Kohlberg’s theory of moral reasoning relevant to the learning environment? Do computers negatively affect student growth? Should teachers consider Erikson’s stages of psychosocial development as they facilitate learning in their classrooms? Should every teacher be culturally responsive? Does multicultural education align with being culturally responsive?
After choosing your topic, go to the University Library and search the Academic Premier or ERIC database to locate one article or research study that investigates your selected topic, or obtain a copy of a study mentioned in the textbook. Write a five-page maximum paper in which you synthesize information on your chosen topic from the textbook and from the article or research study you have chosen. Include a description of both sides of the issue and choose the side you agree with. Explain your choice.
Create your assignment in Microsoft® Word® and use APA style for formatting (including a cover page and running header), citations, and references.
Please note: The cover page and references do not count towards the five-page maximum. Additionally, your paper should also include a brief abstract (125 word maximum)

Article to read: The Yellow Wallpaperby Charlotte Perkins Gilman
Ambiguity is defined as the quality of being open to multiple interpretations. Nonetheless, these interpretations are still limited by the language available on the page. Thus far, we have encountered several short works that emphasize their own openness to being read or understood in different ways, while still relying on writing that emphasizes an overarching theme, or recurring idea that is developed throughout the text. For example, as strange and mysterious as “the Yellow Wallpaper” feels, there are countless “clues,” that suggest the ways in which this story of a hallucinating (?) woman speaks to larger, real-world themes such as the rigidness of gender roles or the conflict between reason and imagination.For this assignment, choose one of the short stories (or the poem) we have studied and:
2.) Make an argument for how the author explores, deepens, or complicates our understanding of this theme using some of the elements of literature we have discussed in class, such as imagery, metaphor or symbol, word choice, sentence construction, dialogue, plot, and structure (the “shape” of the plot, or how the events of the story unfold.) For example, if you were to choose to write on “the Oval Portrait,” you might be interested in the theme of artistic representation. You might then write a paragraph or two dedicated to the imagery of ornate art objects within the bedchamber, one or two dedicated to the effect of Poe’s complex sentences, and one or two dedicated to the meaning of the story-within-the story. Be sure to use quotations from the text
Examine your organization or an organization you are familiar with regarding their use of social media analytics. You may also select an organization from a journal article. How is your selected organization utilizing social media analytics? What form of business value creation is your selected organization experiencing? If your organization is not currently using social media analytics, which areas of the business could benefit the most from implementing this form of analytics?
A substantive initial post answers the question presented completely and/or asks a thoughtful question pertaining to the topic. Use at least one scholarly source and follow APA guidelines

Since the largest group to experience hip fractures are older adults, the normal changes that occur with aging place them at higher risk for complications of immobility and surgical repair of the fracture (for example: decreased muscle mass, decreased bone density, suppressed immune response, and loss of muscle strength and flexibility).
Immobility after a hip fracture (and surgical repair of the break) contributes to the following undesirable changes within the body.
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) occurs when blood pools in the lower extremity veins, which increases the risk of pulmonary embolism and compromised circulation and oxygenation.
Muscle atrophy contributes to orthostatic hypotension when the smooth muscles of the venous system fail to contract when the client changes from a supine to an upright position.
Loss of appetite due to inactivity, depression, boredom, or pain can contribute to weight loss and malnutrition impacting muscle mass and delaying healing.
Use of an indwelling urinary catheter increases the risk for urinary tract infection.
Calcium loss from long bones may lead to renal calculi and osteoporosis.
Pressure and moisture to the skin increases the risk of pressure ulcers.
If client unable to reposition themselves in bed, skin can break down increasing the chance for infection.
Social isolation increases the risk of delirium and disorientation.
When supine, the weight of the chest wall limits lung expansion and contributes to atelectasis.
Blood redistribution and fluid shifts increase the risk for pulmonary edema.
Pooling of secretions increases the risk for pneumonia and decreased gas exchange.
Decreased weight bearing contributes to hormone imbalances.
Considering the concept of mobility with the systems disorder of a hip fracture, it is evident that the older adult is most at risk for not only experiencing a hip fracture but having one or more complications of immobility due to the injury, as well.
Patient-focused care should address pain management (pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic), promoting optimal respiratory status, and early movement with the help of physical therapy. As always, client safety should be incorporated into all care.
