 Getting good or bad grades can cause a person to try a little harder. My experience has been it’s not really how hard you try, but how objective/subjective the person is that is asxsigning the grade. How do you feel about the rubric that is being used in this program. Is there a better system that would give a better picture of how a person is

 Provide a summary of the ad or include a screenshot, and explain what the intent behind the ad is.
 From there, look at what the ad actually says (like the beer ad from Module 3 says that women are sex objects).
Describe how social media plays into the intent and the actual message?
What made it successful (or not successful)?
What ideas and opinions do you have about the product or brand after reviewing the ad?
What can we learn about how businesses use Twitter, Facebook, Linked In, etc. to communicate, network, broaden their customer base, and promote their products/services?

For this assignment, you will demonstrate the skills needed for conducting an indirect assessment. This generally is how practitioners begin the FBA. Although the indirect assessment does not require you to observe the target behaviors, it is a critical component of the FBA because it allows you to build rapport with the stakeholders. The information gathered in this part of the analysis will also inform your descriptive and/or experimental analysis. Be sure to incorporate values of compassion and cultural humility when conducting the indirect assessment. You can refer to the Capella Compassion Code [DOCX] for more details.
Part 1: Selecting the Tool or Method
Considering the highest priority problem behavior from your last assignment, select a method to conduct the indirect assessment. You will need to select an interview tool for your assignment. You have the choice of using the FAI or the IISCA Open-Ended Interview. You may use this assignment as an opportunity to include a checklist or survey tool such as the FAST, FAI, QABF, or the MAS for practice. Please note even if you use one of these checklists or surveys, you will still need an interview. The interview is required but the checklist or surveys are not required (just optional). Document the advantages and limitations of the selected interview tool. Provide a rationale for why you have selected this tool for your indirect assessment. Be sure to consider compassionate approaches when selecting your indirect assessment.
Part 2: Gathering and Summarizing Information
If you chose a fellow learner, friend, or family member, summarize the information collected from interviews with stakeholders and/or completed checklists and surveys. If you chose a character from a T.V. show or movie, you will need to infer the information in your summary. Remember the information obtained from the indirect assessment should inform the procedures taken in the experimental analysis in Week 8. In this summary, provide examples of approaches you took from the Capella Compassion Code [DOCX] to demonstrate how you took into consideration compassionate assessment methods while gathering this information. You should also present a visual display of the summarized information. Include the completed checklists or interviews as part of your assignment.
Additional Requirements
Your assignment should meet the following requirements:
Written communication: Should be free of errors that detract from the overall message.
APA formatting: References and citations are formatted according to current APA style guidelines. Review Evidence and APALinks to an external site. for more information on how to cite your sources.
Resources: A sufficient number of scholarly or professional resources. Resources should include the course texts, and a combination of seminal works.
Length: 3–4 double-spaced pages.
Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12-point.
Refer to the MS in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) Research GuideLinks to an external site. for help finding resources.
Refer to the Indirect Assessment rubric to ensure you understand the grading criteria for this assignment.

Organizational Analysis 
You should incorporate ethical considerations consistent with the following NASW mandate:
3.07 Administration
(a) Social work administrators should advocate within and outside their agencies for adequate resources to meet clients’ needs.
(b) Social workers should advocate for resource allocation procedures that are open and fair. When not all clients’ needs can be met, an allocation procedure should be developed that is nondiscriminatory and based on appropriate and consistently applied principles.
(c) Social workers who are administrators should take reasonable steps to ensure that adequate agency or organizational resources are available to provide appropriate staff supervision.
(d) Social work administrators should take reasonable steps to ensure that the working environment for which they are responsible is consistent with and encourages compliance with the NASW Code of Ethics. Social work administrators should take reasonable steps to eliminate any conditions in their organizations that violate, interfere with, or discourage compliance with the Code.
The purpose of this is for students to demonstrate their competence in analyzing an organization as a macro system. The student can choose to analyze their field placement agency or the agency for which they work. For this assignment, students are to assume the role of a “consultant.”
As a consultant, students will 1) examine agency documents, 2) observe agency processes, 3) interview staff, and (4) keep a journal of notes from these activities. Students will use these methods to examine the core elements of their agency, how well their agency empowers its staff and clients, whether or not staff and clients are treated with dignity and respect, and the extent to which the agency employs a diverse workforce. Based on these activities, students will write up an organizational analysis.

 Great post. I can relate to your example of operant conditioning. Positive reinforcement can give a student encouragement, confidence, and promote achievement overall. However, I do know that it is important to implement positive reinforcement accordingly and in alignment with the learner’s values and goals. Could there be negative consequences of implementing positive reinforcmenet to reward a child’s academic achievements? If so, to which extend?
