Reader Response to “What is the Toulmin Argument” by Karbach

11 unread reply.11 reply.

Look at the Attached document, and use it to address the following questions:

  • How is this argument different than what you’ve encountered up until now?
  • What opportunities or challenges do you think the Toulmin provides that others might not?

When answering these, think about using full paragraphs, and quoting passages from the argument that comes to mind that help support your explanations.

The Reader Response will be graded by a simple rubric you can see here, and must be done by the time we review the piece in class. Consider how you might use the Reader Responses to advance your work on the papers we’re working on.

This is in a Discussion forum, and other can respond to what you write, but having the exchange of ideas in here is not required. However, I really encourage you to exchange ideas with others. When grading, I see all of your contributions, and it’s possible that you have some really good ideas you flesh out in response to others, so give it a shot!

  • Emblems: gestures that have a direct verbal translation and can stand alone such as the “ok” sign.
  • Illustrators: gestures that complement our words such as pointing when giving directions.
  • Regulators: gestures that may prolong or terminate the conversation such as looking at your watch, walking away or nodding and leaning forward.
  • Adaptors: gestures that make you feel more comfortable in a communication situation such as twirling your hair or tapping your fingers.
  • Affect Displays: facial expressions motivated by emotion such as a smile or frown.
  • In this lesson, you will venture out and observe the people around you. Tune out what they are saying and then sit back and watch. Take notes on what type of gestures (emblems, regulators, illustrators, adaptors and affect displays) are they using? How often do they use each one? Are they aware of these gestures? You will then use your notes to write a typed two-page essay describing what you witnessed. Please let us know where you were, the mall, Starbucks, work etc.. and who was involved, two men sitting at a table…

Describe at least ten separate gestures.

  • What type?
  • What are they conveying? How many repetitions?
  • What are the circumstances?

and include the following:

  • At least two pages typed– MINIMUM of 675 words

  • Tsabary, S. (2014). Out of Control: Why Disciplining your Child doesnt Work–and What Will. Vancouver, Canada: Namaste Publishing.
  • DBQ – This Discussion focuses on reflecting on your reading of the Tsabary text. Importantly, how students felt about the book as a whole will not affect their score on this Discussion Question, and students are expected to respect the diversity of opinions and beliefs of their peers when responding.
  • Using your Syllabus as a guide, take a look at the required sections of Out of Control each Week of the course.
  • Reviews for Out of Control range from a “must-read for all parents” to a “condescending tone and impractical advice”.
  • Where do you stand on this spectrum, and why? Now that you’ve nearly completed this course reviewing research on parenting, are there particular aspects of your own experience as a child (or also as a parent yourself) that you think contribute to where you fall on this spectrum?
  • Would you recommend this book for friends or family members? Why or why not?
  • Using your Syllabus, choose 5 weekly required Tsabary readings from different weeks to revisit for this Discussion Forum that represent sections that really stuck with you (for good or bad), or really made you critically evaluate the process of parenting as a process of connecting with another human being–one’s own child.
    • My Selected 5 Section
    • Ch.5 Module 1- How Reusing our children teaches irresponsible
    • Ch.11 Module 2- A Strong child lives Here (see attachment ch. 3, 4 Brooks)
    • Ch.18 Module 4- What to do when your child shouts you out (see attachment Ch. 8,9 Brooks)
    • Ch.14 Module4- What it means to honor your child (see attachment Ch. 8,9 Brooks)
    • Ch. 26 Module 3- The power of Connection (see attachment Ch. 5,6,7 Brooks)
  • For each of your 5 selected sections, identify a really poignant message that stuck out to you. This might be because it resonated with your life, or that it really helped something “click” for you in terms of what we’ve been studying regarding the process of parenting and parent-child relationships–or it might be something with which you staunchly disagree and that doesn’t apply to your life or beliefs.
  • Write a really thoughtful reflection on each of these ideas (5 total).
  • Provide a meaningful “take-home” summarizing conclusion regarding something you can take with you as a current or future parent or as a thought for other parents you know.
  • When you format your Original Post, be sure to provide a heading for each Tsabary chapter name and course week/Module for each of your 5 selected readings. In addition, provide a heading for your “take-home” message paragraph summarizing your conclusion from all the readings.

First paper 1

Please refer to “Organizing for Innovation at Google” in pages 211-213 of the textbook and then answer the following questions:

  1. What are the advantages and disadvantages of the creative side of Google being run as a flexible and flat “technocracy”?
  2. How does Google’s culture influence the kind of employees it can attract and retain?
  3. What do you believe the challenges are in having very different structure and controls for Google’s creative side versus the other parts of the company?
  4. Some analysts have argued that Google’s free-form structure and the 20 percent time to work on personal projects is only possible because Google’s prior success has created financial slack in the company. Do you agree with this? Why? Would Google be able to continue this management style if it had closer competitors?

Objectives

At the end of this module students will be able to:

  1. Evaluate the impact of stereotypes about sexuality in older adults. (CO1, CO2, CO3, CO4, CO5, CO6, CO7)
  2. Explain the experiences of LGBTQ older adults. (CO1, CO2, CO3, CO4, CO5, CO6, CO7)
  3. Summarize the effects of physiological changes in older men’s and older women’s sexuality. (CO1, CO2, CO3, CO4, CO5, CO6, CO7)

Module 5: Lecture Materials– Chapter 7 Love, Intimacy, and Sexuality in Old Age

Please read Chapter Seven

Sexuality is Life-Affirming and Adaptable

As highlighted throughout Chapter 7, sexuality is a positive life-affirming force and is affected by physical, psychological, social environmental and disease-related changes. The normal physiological changes that men and women experience in their sexual organs as they age do not inherently affect their sexual pleasure or lead to sexual dysfunction. Even chronic disease and disability do not necessarily eliminate sexual capacity. For example, many older persons, after adequate medical consultation, can resume sexual activity following a heart attack or stroke. Contrary to some myths about sexuality in old age, many people in their 70s and 80s enjoy sexual activities, and an even larger number express their sexuality in a wide range of intimate behaviors.

Older couples can adapt to age-related changes in sexual functioning in a variety of ways. Simply knowing that such changes are normal may help older people maintain their sexual self-esteem. Avoiding alcohol prior to sexual activity can be helpful, because while alcohol increases desire, it also decreases sexual ability. Health professionals need to be alert to medications that adversely affect sexual functioning, such as anti-hypertensives, tranquilizers, and antidepressants.

Emphasis on Psychosocial Factors

This chapter emphasizes how psychosocial factors tend to have the greatest influence on elders’ sexual behavior. Ageist myths, stereotypes, and jokes pervade views of sexuality in old age. Unfortunately, societal expectations about reduced sexual interest may mean that older people stop sexual activity long before they need to. These myths are changing, however, as the media, gerontologists, and other professionals convey the message that sex is not only permissible but desirable in old age. Any discussions about sexuality and old age must include LGBTQ individuals, take account of the range of sexual orientations and gender identities among older adults, and validate the flexibility of gender role behavior.

Importance of Touch for Elders

In professional work with older partners, definitions of sexuality need to be broadened beyond sexual intercourse. A variety of behaviors—such as touching, kissing, hugging, massage, and lying side by side—can contribute to sexual intimacy and satisfaction, even for older persons in long-term care facilities and those living with dementia. Touching older people—a handclasp or a back rub, for example—is especially important in homebound and institutional settings but needs to be tempered with awareness of cultural differences. Professionals and family members also need to be attentive to barriers to expressions of sexuality within long-term care facilities.

Awareness for Practitioners

Practitioners need to be sensitive to their clients’ sexual histories, values and life experiences, and to support them in making their own choices about their sexual behavior and expressions of sexuality, including the choice not to engage in sexual activity. Many of the current cohort of oldest-old grew up with taboos relating not only to intercourse but also to other forms of sexual activity, such as masturbation. They vary widely in terms of their comfort with sexual language and discussing sexual topics, and even their openness to learning more about sexuality. Providing them with accurate information is a critical first step, because many were raised not to talk about sex. Accordingly, older individuals are likely to need encouragement from professionals and family members if they are to be free to affirm their sexuality and to experience intimacy with others. This pattern is shifting, however, with the aging of the young-old and the baby boomers who are more open in their sexual attitudes and behaviors.

Module 5: Summary

Module Summary

Sexuality, a vital component of personality and of active aging, is a multidimensional construct that involves many aspects of a person’s being, including one’s self-concept, self-esteem, body image, and relationships. A person’s speech and movement, vitality, and ability to enjoy life are involved in sexuality. As with other facets of aging discussed throughout this text, sexuality encompasses physiological, emotional, intellectual, spiritual, behavioral, and cultural components and is affected by both personal and environmental factors. It is also an outcome of physical capacity, health status, motivation, attitudes, opportunity for partnership, and sexual behavior (Waite, Laumann, Das, & Schumm, 2009). As with all people of any age, intimacy and love for elders can be connected to sexuality, or separate, but unmistakably are vital components of a full life (Barusch, 2008).

performance improvement plan 8

by

Chapter 6

Assignment: Developing a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP)

Performance improvement plans, or PIPs, can be one of the most powerful tools for managing employee performance. Used correctly, a performance improvement plan can help a struggling employee get back on track or improve an area of weakness, so that the employee can move on to continued growth and opportunities within the organization.

In addition to correcting and improving employee performance, which is the desired outcome, a PIP can also protect the company when improvement does not occur. A PIP creates a paper trail that documents where improvement in performance did and did not occur, as well as what the company did to assist the employee toward a successful outcome. Another advantage of the PIP is that it typically costs less to work to improve an existing employee’s performance than to recruit, hire, and train a new employee.

To begin this Assignment, you will examine the case study, “Missed Pickup Means a Missed Opportunity for 30 Seeking a Fellowship,” provided in this week’s resources.

Then, to complete this Assignment, review the Learning Resources for this week, and other resources you have found in the Walden Library or online, and respond to the following bullets in a 3- to 5-page paper, which will include 2 Appendices.

• Begin your paper with an introduction and then provide a summary of the case study.

• Prepare a needs assessment to analyze both employees’ skill levels identified in the scenario.

• Based on the needs assessment, prepare an analysis of what should have happened, and what actually did happen, in the scenario.

• Based on the needs assessment, evaluate the appropriateness among possible choices of action (strategies), including discipline, development, improvement, or termination for the two employees.

• As a Human Resources professional, create a performance improvement plan for each employee that outlines the following:

o Expected behaviors;

o Metrics for improvement;

o Required action steps;

o Consequences for not meeting the plan’s expected outcomes;

o Their manager’s role.

• Prepare instructions for the manager on how to conduct a meeting with each employee about improvements and consequences.

Your Assignment must include 3–5 references to support your thinking.
