A Statement of Personal Beliefs (Course Objectives 1, 3, 4) Simply put, curriculum may be defined as what students should know and be able to do. Therefore, curriculum is the point of departure, the hub, the heart, the foundation for consideration of practically all aspects of education. Imagine then that you will soon interview for a position as a curriculum coordinator for a school district. You know that the members of the interview team have much experience in curriculum and often discuss philosophical issues in education when they see each other. Prepare a statement of beliefs that you may leave with them to ensure that they know fully what you think about the fundamental forces that shape curriculum and in turn are shaped by it. Be sure to discuss the four issues below: § the role of philosophy in curriculum § the significance of appropriate goals and objectives § the usefulness of curriculum designs § the tension between the arts and current goals of education
The balanced scorecard (BSC) aims to identify internal problems by comparing functions to predefined performance metrics. Once feedback from balance scorecards is received and interpreted, an organization can make changes to internal functions and improve external outcomes. The data provides an organization quantitative data to make a more informed decision to grow the company. (Tarver, 2019) Traver describes the four main measuring aspects of a business are learning and growth, business processes, customers, and finance. Business processes and Customer perspectives are nonfinancial measures of a business. Business processes are evaluated by determining how well items are produced and how management tracks delays, gaps, shortages, or waste. Customer perspective is an important measure that gauges their satisfaction with price, quality, and product availability. Tarver, E. (2019).

This is an abstract definition essay on the topic of FREEDOM. The only real guideline is that no research is permitted. It should be personal.

European History Research paper topic: As the Salon culture became popular in France in the 18th century, it was one of the most important place for academic discussions in the French Enlightenment period.

Then use two secondary sources from ” Dena Goodman The republic of letters” and “Kale, Steven, French Salons: High Society and Political Sociability from the Old Regime to the Revolution of 1848” as supporting evidence to help with your analysis.
Read this article before you write please: http://www.rtinetwork.org/learn/diversity/culturalcompetence Classrooms across the nation are becoming increasingly diverse, and in order for children to reach their true potential, educators must not only understand the realities of a culturally and linguistically diverse world, but they also must embrace it (Bredekamp, 2017). Culture and language influence the development and learning of all children. Cultural contexts impact how people think, communicate, behave, and problem-solve, which is why this is such a relevant topic early childhood educators and leaders alike (Bredekamp, 2017). To become an effective teacher and leader in the field of early childhood education, creating a classroom and school environment that is culturally and linguistically responsive is imperative. Your discussion this week is the first step in that process. To prepare for this discussion, read the article Working with culturally and linguistically diverse families (Links to an external site.) . Subsequently, reflect on the following quote: “The key is to learn as much as you can about each of the children, to get to know their families, and to always be culturally and linguistically responsive in the classroom” (Bredekamp, 2017, p. 182). For your initial post: Explain, based on Figure 6.1 in your course text, how each of the “Invisible Deep Structures” of culture impacts your work with children and their families (Norms, Assumptions, Beliefs, Expectations for Behavior, Values, Rules and roles, History). Analyze the role that acculturation played in the case study at the start of Chapter 6 of your course text (between Mrs. Arguenta and Stacey). Provide specific examples from the article Working with culturally and linguistically diverse families (Links to an external site.) . Develop a plan for ensuring you and your staff create a culturally and linguistically responsive in the classroom by including strategies to avoid the three problems that can occur without a solid cultural understanding (Bredekamp, p. 182): Provide at least two strategies for avoiding the following: Misunderstanding children Inaccurate Assessment of Children Failure to Promote Children’s Achievement Defend your solution to the following statement: “When there are cultural differences between what the school defines as developmentally appropriate and the expectations of the family, children are likely to have greater difficulty adjusting” (Bredekamp, 2017, p. 197). How will you uphold your educational and ethical obligations to children and their families, while supporting children in this adjustment? What steps can you as a leader in this field take to help students become bicultural?
