PART 3: Reflections from the Field
Reflect on the readings, discussions, fieldwork consider how your observations in the field relate to concepts we have been discussing about cognitive development.
Your paper should identify 2 concrete descriptions of observations at both field sites (e.g., who were you observing, what were they doing, what were they saying, what aspect of the exhibit were they engaging with)
Based on readings, lectures and discussions reflect on how concepts of cognitive development might relate to your observations.
Based on readings, lectures, discussions, consider what might be the possible learning outcomes of the experience is for the learners you observed (what do you think they learned at the end of the day)
The Reflective Paper give you an opportunity to synthesize the course readings, concepts, and discussions (thus drawing connecting your field work to the course content and project topic). Please do not merely summarize the readings. Instead, think critically about what you have read and consider the connections between the readings. Reflection should be approximately 3 pages, double-spaced. You must include at leasttwo course references.

In contrast to previous theories of rhetoric, Campbell’s separation of emotion a

In contrast to previous theories of rhetoric, Campbell’s separation of emotion and logic represents a central trend in rhetorical theory during the Enlightenment. Discuss two ways in which this division influences theories of “style” in the Enlightenment era. In your responses to peers, compare and contrast the discussions of style they offer to earlier rhetorical theories.

Respond to this response During the Enlightenment, rhetoric experienced notable

Respond to this response During the Enlightenment, rhetoric experienced notable transformations in its conceptualizations and practices, particularly in invention and style. Invention, the process of generating arguments and ideas, saw a shift towards evidence and logical reasoning. According to Blair, rhetoric should rely on “natural sentiments” rather than artificial embellishments (Bizzell et al., 2020, p. 1029). This emphasis on natural reasoning reflects the Enlightenment’s commitment to rationality and clarity in discourse.
Style also evolved during this period, moving away from a flowery, elaborate style towards a more plain and straightforward mode of expression. George Campbell advocated for a style characterized by “perspicuity,” emphasizing the importance of clarity and simplicity in communication (Bizzell et al., 2020, p. 989). This departure from excessive ornamentation aligns with the Enlightenment’s rejection of embellishments in favor of reasoned argumentation.
Many of these changes in rhetoric during the Enlightenment continue to influence contemporary rhetorical theory and practice. The emphasis on evidence-based reasoning and clear communication persists in modern discourse. However, some traditional conceptualizations of rhetoric, such as the use of classical tropes and figures, lost prominence during this period, giving way to new approaches rooted in reason and rationality.
In conclusion, the Enlightenment era marked a significant transition in rhetoric, with shifts in invention and style that continue to shape rhetorical practices today. While some traditional elements were discarded, the enduring emphasis on rational argumentation and clear expression remains a cornerstone of contemporary rhetoric.

Develop five plans of educational activities for preschool children in different thematic areas. Each planning must include learning objectives, necessary materials, description of the activity and evaluation. These plans will be based on the preschool curriculum of the United States and will be suitable for children from 0 to 5 years old.
Instructions:
1. Select five different thematic areas for planning, such as language and communication, mathematics, science, art and music, and socio-emotional development.
2. For each thematic area, develop a planning that includes the following elements:
– Specific learning objectives for that area.
– Materials necessary to carry out the activity.
– Detailed description of the activity, including steps and specific activities for children.
– Evaluation of the activity, which may include how to measure children’s progress in relation to learning objectives.
3. Make sure that the plans are appropriate for preschool children, with activities that encourage play, exploration and the development of fundamental skills.
4. Consider the diversity of children’s skills and needs in your planning, and provide adaptations or modifications if necessary.
5. Present your plans in a clear and organized way, using a coherent format for each one.
6. You can include illustrations or visual examples to help you understand the activities.
7. Imagine that these plans will be used by preschool teachers in a real educational environment.
8. Be sure to cite any resources or references you use to develop your plans.
This task will allow you to design meaningful and effective educational activities for preschool children in different thematic areas, following the guidelines and standards of the preschool curriculum in the United States.

The educational leader has the responsibility of incorporating Parent & Communit

The educational leader has the responsibility of incorporating Parent & Community Involvement and School Climate & Safety. In this unit, you will find ways to involve your parents & community within your school setting. An example would include having a literacy day / night in which parents or grandparents are invited to read to the students. Or High School could invite the local colleges to participate in College Day. Think about impactful ways that the parents or community can influence the schools. Additionally, the leader will create methods to maintain a healthy culture for the school in addition to assessing the quality of safety measures around the campus. You will select one overall goal for Parent & Community Involvement & two measurable objectives. Additionally, you will select one overall goal for School Climate and Safety & two measurable objectives.
