Choose 2 music lessons (Grades PK – 3) from a website to review. Determine the Sunshine State Standards along with the performance standards covered in each lesson. This means you will go to 2 websites to retrieve the standards (they are below, either Birth to age 5 or Kinder and above and Music Standards). Cut and paste (and give credit to the websites) the lesson plans and add the standards to the lesson plans. Review the lesson plan template, and note any missing components on the bottom of each page. You do not need to add the component information, only note what is missing. (20 points) You will add the standards to the lesson plan template.

Use Kern’s Chapter 4 on “Time,” Cyr and Kort’s essays from the Shapiro Library, and Woolf’s short stories “A Mark on the Wall” and “Kew Gardens” to explicate how you see “time” working in connection with individual perception in stream-of-consciousness / interior monologue stories. Who is Woolf’s narrator in these two stories, and how does that narrator’s experience of external stimuli and internal conscious reactions create a sense of time passing?
Refer to the Discussion Rubric for directions on completing these discussions.
My Suggestions
This prompt requires you to use 5 different texts in your response. Make sure you include textual evidence from each in your response.
“Time” by Kern
“A Conflict of Closure in Virginia Woolf’s “The Mark on the Wall”
“The snail in ‘Kew Gardens’: a commentary on ethical awareness”
“A Mark on the Wall”
“Kew Gardens”
There are 2 main goals for this prompt:
explicate how you see “time” working in connection with individual perception in “A Mark on the Wall” and “Kew Gardens”
to “explicate” means to explain (it means “to unfold”) – the prompt is asking you to explain the connection between time and perception in these stories
be sure that you discuss the role of time and perception in both stories
the best strategy is to find one good example in each story (a scene, a line, a phrase – i.e. something specific) and unpack it in your discussion, incorporating all your sources and ideas in that moment of “unpacking”
explain how the narrator and narrative voice “create a sense of time passing.”
this is asking you to look specifically at point of view – how the story is told – and to examine how (using textual evidence to support your ideas) the narrator (as a character) and the narrative voice (the storytelling power) create a “sense of time”
be prepared to use textual evidence from each story to demonstrate that time is passing (i.e. find an example of time passing) and to show how the way the story is told – the narrative voice – affects that sense of time passing.
These two goals can be treated separately or as one larger discussion (of how perception affects our sense of time) – as long as you touch on all the elements here (time, perception, narrative voice) you’re fine
Use the secondary sources (Kern, Cyr, Kort) to support your readings; to provide you with important concepts or ideas that you can build on/from; or to contrast or counter your own impressions of these stories and this prompt. As long as they play a supportive function in some way, and as long as you include elements of substance (i.e. important ideas or arguments, not superficial details), you’ll be fine.
Make sure you provide an MLA formatted Works Cited page and that you include proper parenthetical citations for any quotes or paraphrases you include here.

This assignment helps you focus on an important course goal—identification of cultural values and how they may influence communication expectations, especially what can happen in the workplace. Homework 2, the interview of someone with a cultural background different than yours, helps you understand more about diversity within culture. This assignment also helps you avoid stereotyping in a harmful way, or being “politically correct” (unknowing use of identity politics).

Steps to help you draft your essay (paper)

SURVEY OF BOTH SIZE: Interviewee and myself

Interviewee Survey

Female
44 years
Childhood location: England, United Kingdom
Professional life: Working full Time
Career advancement: Education and work
1. Public education: School was not religious. My education is typical of children in my area. I started school at 5years old and went to the local primary school. After that I went to middle school and then high school. I completed my 9 Gcse’s when I was 16 years old. I completed a further 3 A-levels in law, business studies and English language and literature and performance management when I was 23. I completed this via distance learning when I was living in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
2. I have a master’s degree in training and performance management. I will finish my MBA in leadership and innovation in December 2018.
3. I chose my profession in training and development because I enjoy helping and supporting people. This is not similar to my parents who were both hoteliers. I consider this profession to be a semi successful position in that it is a professional position that pays well, and I am a director, but it is not a profession associated with vast success and wealth such as a doctor/ banker/ lawyer.
4. I work because I enjoy it and also because I want to be financially independent from my husband and contribute to our family so that he is not the only one carrying the financial stress. Working makes me feel like I am making a difference is society and that I am part of a wider family than just my own. It also brings social aspects such as friends. I enjoy spending the money I earn without feeling guilty that it is someone else’s’ money.
5. In career advancement I think it’s important to work hard and go above and beyond your current role to be ready for the next. Loyalty is an admirable trait but, in some industries, it’s not a requirement. Loyalty can be anything from 1-10 years depending on the job. It is important to adapt to the job and those people around you. Build strong trusted relationships. Be friendly and approachable and be the best you can be in that role.
6. At work, I work with people from many countries, from all over the world. The diversity is a huge positive support for our team and of great value.
Family background:

1. I have one younger brother and six paternal half brothers and sisters.
2. I am married. It was not an arranged married. My husband and I married after two years of dating. We both get along well with each other’s family.
3. We have 2 sons that are 9 and 11. It’s tough to be a parent in America today. Kids in America are very spoiled and don’t understand the value of money. They are not as responsible growing up as my generation was. They are lazier! I think today kids are understood better than when I was a child. We are more protective, loving and attentive to children today than when I was a child.
4. I think of my family as being everyone from aunts and uncles, to cousins and 2nd cousins. We do not get together very often because of us living far apart but we are in contact regularly. I think family is very important.

Economic Indicators:
1. My family is stable financially. We are not rich, and we are poor, but we are happy with our income level and can afford to do nice things sometime and go on holiday. All of our money was earned ourselves. we did not inherit anything.
2. Our is regarded well by our community because my husband has a good job.
3. We live in a single-family house in Woodbridge, Virginia. This is a nicer home than our parents or siblings have because we earn more money than they do.

Sources of cultural values from background:
1. I am not religious at all. I was not raised in a religious family and I do not practice religion.
2. I only speak English fluently. I speak a little Dutch and mandarin because I lived in Amsterdam and shanghai for a few years. My father speaks 5 languages, but I never learned them.

General views of US:
1. The US is ahead in terms of innovation. They are very creative and advanced when it comes to technology and services. The US is behind in terms of historical importance and embracing diversity.
2. The culture of eating so much annoys me about the US culture. Portion size is way to large. The entitlement culture annoys me. Children and younger adults expect things that they haven’t earned.

In this individual assignment you will display your ability to model business processes using the
Bizagi Modeler in order to model a total of 6 business processes. The Bizagi Modeler is a
freeware program that you can download and install on your own PC computer. It is also
available on all COBA lab computers if you would rather use it there. There is not a Mac version.
Business Process 1
Withdrawing cash from an ATM is a business process between a customer and the ATM (bank
system). The customer must first insert a bankcard to start the process. Once inserted, the ATM
identifies the bankcard and then returns it to the customer. The customer takes the bankcard
and the ATM then requests the customer’s PIN associated with that card. The customer enters
the PIN and the ATM then validates the card/PIN combination. If the PIN does not match the
card, the customer is prompted to reenter the PIN. Once a valid PIN has been entered the ATM
displays available account options. The customer selects withdraw cash and the ATM displays
available withdrawal options. The customer selects the amount to withdraw and the ATM
verifies that funds are available in the customer’s account. If funds are not available the ATM
displays the available funds and gives the customer the option to select a different amount. The
customer can either select a different amount or cancel the transaction. If the transaction is
canceled the process ends. If the funds are available the ATM first debits the customer’s
account and then dispenses the cash.
Business Process 2
University faculty members often travel to conferences to present research papers. The
associated expenses are reimbursed through a business process called Travel Expense
Reimbursement. The travel reimbursement process occurs after the faculty returns from a trip
and starts with the faculty member filling out an expense form. The faculty member then submits
the completed form to the department chair for review and approval. The department chair
can make one of three decisions regarding the reimbursement request; he can reject the
request as a non-reimbursable expense which ends to process, he can return it to the faculty
member for corrections, or he can approve it. If the expenses are approved, the department
chair sends the form to accounts payable for check processing. The accounts payable
department checks the form for errors and distributes a check to the faculty member if
everything is in order. If the account payable department identifies any errors in the request it is
2
returned to the faculty member for correction. If corrections are required by the accounts
payable office the faculty member must correct the form and then send it back to the
department chair for re-approval. If approved, the form is sent back to accounts payable
which will again verify the information and either send it back for additional corrections or
accept it and distribute the check.
Business Process 3, 4, 5 & 6
For this part of the assignment, you’ll begin by selecting 2 of the businesses listed below that
have been disruptive using technology. For each organization selected, you’ll model two
separate processes referred to as the “As-Is” and “To-Be” process models. You’ll model how
people would utilize or interact with each of the services provided by these businesses in 2018
(“To-Be”) versus how a person would’ve accomplished a similar process prior to that disruption
(“As-Is”). In some cases, it would even be helpful to identify a specific organization that was
disrupted in order to assist in the creation of your As-Is model. (Example: Netflix disrupting
Blockbuster). It may also be necessary to do some research on the 2 businesses that you select in
order to understand how their process works so that you can model it properly.

Deliverables
 The Bizagi Modeler allows for multiple diagrams in the same file. Please create one Bizagi
Modeler file (.bpm) and create all 6 business process diagrams within that same file as
separate diagrams. (Failure to model each as a separate diagram is an automatic 30
point deduction.)
 Using the Bizagi Modeler:
o Create a diagram that depicts Business Process 1.
o Create a diagram that depicts Business Process 2.
o Create a separate As-Is diagram for each organization selected depicting how
each would have worked without technology (Business Process 3 & 4).
o Create a separate To-Be diagram for each organization selected depicting how
each works in 2018 utilizing technology (Business Process 5 & 6).
o Write a description of the As-Is process for each organization selected and
include it in each diagram next to the process model as a Formatted Text box
(Business Process 3 & 4).
o Write a description of the To-Be process for each organization selected and
include it in each diagram next to the process model as a Formatted Text box
(Business Process 5 & 6).
 Save and submit your file as a .bpm called lastname_firstname_businessprocess.bpm

This semester, you will be writing a 10­12 page historical research paper. Please remember that while a
research paper must contain facts, it is not a biography, summary, or history; consequently, your paper
must have a strong focus and use its facts to support an opinion (your thesis). You will choose a subject
that interests you. Two students may not share the same topic.
Anglo­Saxon or Medieval Period
Renaissance
Seventeenth Century or Restoration Period
Victorian Period
Modernist Period
The Process
All elements of the research paper, aside from the note cards, should be typed.
Research Paper Step Due Points
Topic Question and Working Outline
Question should supply focus and necessitate an opinion­based answer (eventually,
your thesis). Remember a working outline is quite brief but covers any concepts or
ideas that you think will be associated with your question. The purpose is not to
outline a paper, but to outline a course of reading that will answer a question. This
outline will also provide you with the slugs you need to put at the left top of note cards. 9/12 /10
40 Note Cards and 10+ Bibliography Cards
Each bibliography card has the proper citation for one source. Every source used must
have a bibliography card. Only reliable, academic sources allowed. No encyclopedias
(this includes Wikipedia). Remember the first three pieces of information you must
place on all note cards: the slug on the top left line, the source identifier in the upper
right corner, and either the page number of a print source or the date you visited the
internet site. Without these, even the best notes are worthless in writing a paper since
the fact cannot be validated in a citation. Then, include one piece of information and
clearly designate if it is quoted or paraphrased. 10/5 /25
Rough Draft
Must be typed, 10­12 pages, and following MLA guidelines. CD:CM ratio should be
around 2:1. The majority of CDs should be in your own words; quotations should be
fluidly incorporated into your sentences. All CDs must be cited with parenthetical
citations. Should already include a Works Cited page. 10/16 /40
Final Draft
Will be graded on formatting, adherence to MLA research paper guidelines,
sophistication of argument, strength of CD and CM support, quality of writing
(grammar and style), and effort in revisions. The rough draft must be stapled to the
back of the final draft (following the works cited page). 10/23 /100

Instruction:
running record and 2 anecdotal notes.

1. Choose a child ages 2-8 years old to observe. You may choose a child in a child development program, school, or a child that you know. Please note: IF you observe your own child or another child you know, you must be able to complete the observation without playing or interacting with the child. This will allow you to take thorough and objective notes. Your observations must be based on current observations from the date you receive this assignment until the due date. Please do not use the child’s real name (use an alternate name).
2. Write a 10 minute Running Record using the format below (you must type this record).
3. Choose 2 events recorded in the running record, and write an anecdotal using each event using the anecdotal format below (you must type this record). A templet of the anecdotal format can be found in your syllabus!
