Identify any obstacles or risks that might prevent your plan from being carried out.

You will use the information researched in Module 02 to assist in developing an action plan. Identify and list the steps necessary to counteract the type of bias and/or discrimination that your selected group has experienced within an early childhood education environment.

In a 2-3 page paper, provide the following information in sections as labeled below. Incorporate two (2) credible resources.

Step 1: Barriers

  • List and explain the current barriers you identified.
    • Questions to consider in your explanation: What do you see as the major factors preventing your group from experiencing and participating fully and equally in the learning environment? Are the barriers physical (for example, no handicap ramps) or related to the program content and processes (for example, no native language materials for English Language Learners [ELL] children)? Are the barriers attitudinal (for example, the center doesn’t feel comfortable serving children with special needs)? Are there any beliefs and/or biases that may be preventing your group’s participation?
  • State at least two alternative methods for overcoming those barriers.
  • Indicate which method is the best for this particular situation, and explain why.

Step 2: Inclusive Environment

  • Describe the inclusive environment for your group that you envisioned.
    • Consider the following in your explanation: Picture the ideal setting. What would it look like? What characteristics would make the learning experience accessible and appropriate for your group? Think about all aspects of the learning environment and include information about the program design, equipment, materials, instructional strategies, curriculum, resources, and assessments. Also think about the kinds of adult-child interactions, child-child interactions, and family-teacher interactions that would be necessary to ensure full and equal participation.
  • Discuss the benefits of having a diverse group within that early childhood environment.

Step 3: Action Steps

  • State the ultimate goal for your group relative to the bias/discrimination it has been experiencing.
  • Outline 2-3 action steps needed to best counteract the type of bias and/or discrimination that your selected group has experienced.
  • Suggest 2 activities that promote an inclusive environment for children and families in the chosen group.
  • Identify the resources or materials, if any, that will be needed to achieve the goal.
  • Provide a realistic timeline for implementing the action plan.

Step 4: Obstacles/Risks

  • Identify any obstacles or risks that might prevent your plan from being carried out.
  • Explain whether the action is worth taking those risks and why.

Compare and contrast the basic assumptions of the two theories and note the similarities and the differences as they relate to human behavior.

Freudian and Jungian Theories of the Unconscious Mind [WLOs: 1,   2] [CLOs: 1, 5]

Prior to beginning work on this discussion be sure to read Chapters 2 and 3 in the course textbook, read the article A Brief Comparison of the Unconscious as Seen by Jung and Lévi-Strauss, and view the video Sigmund Freud: The Unconscious Mind (Short Version) (Links to an external site.). In addition to these required sources, research a minimum of one scholarly source in the Ashford University Library on this topic. All sources plus the text should be cited in your post.

To assist you in completing the library research required for this assignment, view this Ashford University Library Quick ‘n’ Dirty (Links to an external site.) tutorial, which introduces the Ashford University Library and the research process and provides some library search tips.

The unconscious mind is a core concept in most psychoanalytical and psychodynamic theories, but Freud and Jung’s theories are the most developed and prominent. Their concepts and ideas differ in the many areas which then impact their views on how the unconscious minds contributes to personality development, such as the role and meaning of dreams, the centrality of sex and sexuality in human motivation, the elements of the self, and the makeup of the unconscious. In your initial post of a minimum of 350 words:

· Present an overview of both Freud’s theory and Jung’s theory of the role of the unconscious mind as it pertains to personality and behavior.

· Compare and contrast the basic assumptions of the two theories and note the similarities and the differences as they relate to human behavior.

· Based on your reading and research explain which interpretation of the unconscious mind you support and why.

Post your description of how micro-, mezzo-, or macro-levels of practice aid social workers in assessing families. Assess Paula Cortez’s situation using all three of these levels of practice, and identify two strengths and/or solutions in each of these levels.

Understanding a client’s family history and background is one of the first steps in assessment. Having a thorough knowledge of the assessment tools and strategies available enhances a clinical social worker’s practice. Using theory to assess all levels of a situation enables the clinical social worker to develop the most effective and appropriate intervention, one that takes advantage of a social work principle that states that all clients have strengths. Identifying and creating a strategy that is strength-based is one of the cornerstones of good social work practice.

The first step in helping a client is conducting a thorough assessment. The clinical social worker must explore multiple perspectives in order to develop a complete understanding of the situation. From this understanding, the social worker is able to recognize the client’s strengths and develop effective strategies for change.

For this Discussion, review the “Cortez Family” case history.

Briefly discuss and define sexual motivation and sex culture.

Your individual response post mustaddress all items, criteria #1-3, below:

  1. Definition & Discussion of Motivation: (this criterion should take approximately 1-2 paragraphs to address)
    1. Complete the “Sex Quiz” which is linked on the main page of the module. This survey assesses individual awareness of sexual myths common in Western cultures.

    3. Were there specific items which you were surprised are considered false? Which ones? Why?
  2. Cultural Elements & Motivation: (this criterion should take approximately 1-2 paragraphs to address)
    1. Briefly discuss and define sexual motivation and sex culture.
    2. Again, what role might culture play in types of myths about sex? Clearly define, explain, and discuss all terms.
    3. Clearly link and explain the cultural elements of individualistic vs. collectivist societies which may accommodate the perpetuation of sexual myths.
