The online discussions pose an opportunity for rich and meaningful student learning and interaction. Online discussions extend classroom learning by providing an asynchronous method of communication for the exchange of meaningful ideas that promote critical thinking and develop thoughtful reflective learning. All students are expected to participate in each weekly discussion. These forums will be grounded in critical thinking.
You are to develop an answer (minimum 250 words) concerning the question, and post your reply to the appropriate discussion section. Although you can use other sources, you are required to also include information from the text.
• Is the contribution mechanically clear enough for readers to understand the points being made?
• Is the contribution on time?
• Does the contribution meet the minimum length requirements?
• Does the contribution reference assigned readings or other resources?
• Does the post contain “critical thinking” that is indicative of the paradigms in the field?
• Are the ideas communicated with respect for those who may dissent?
Other things to consider:
• Please be professional and courteous.
• Online communication lacks the non-verbal cues that provide much of the meaning in face-to-face conversations. Choose your words carefully, phrase your sentences clearly, and keep your sentences and paragraphs brief.
• Review appropriate “Netiquette” at http://www.albion.com/netiquette/
• State the main topic of your posting in the Subject line.
• State your purpose for writing at or near the beginning of your message whenever possible.
• Proofread what you post. You may want to use a word processor to draft what you intend to say, check your spelling and grammar, and then paste your text into the Message section of your posting.
• Please do not use all capital letters. It makes it hard to read, and it comes across as though you were shouting.

You have been tasked to present at a town hall meeting in your local town or city to present the details about a new local policy that is being proposed. The presentation will need to define the problem, proposed solutions, risks, challenges, and funding opportunities/challenges. Topics may include local government changes to communities (for example, transportation, commercial enterprise effects on nearby townships, affordable housing construction, environmental effects of new/old business operations, addressing homelessness support, and others).
Using the Policy Identification and Analysis Assignment Template, [PPTX] develop an 8-10 slide presentation in which you:
Analyze and define the problem to include possible political conflicts.
Identify risks and challenges.
Identify and construct policy alternatives and solutions.
Identify stakeholders and key roles.
Identify funding opportunities, challenges, and budget cost factors; including saving measures.
Select supportive and evaluative criteria.
Identify incentives, subsidies, and potential benefits.
Draw conclusions in a thorough summary, including lessons learned.

1. When people think about a country’s culture, they often view it through a lens of broad generalizations, perhaps even stereotypes. Why do you think this is the case? Why might cultural stereotypes be problematic in today’s globalized world?
2. Be sure to respond to at least one of your classmates’ posts.
CLASSMATES POST: TANYA
A few things that come to mind when addressing why country cultures are often viewed through a lens of broad generalizations are…
For the most part I feel as though many “people” live a sheltered life. Anything people are not familiar with or don’t want to be familiar with you often hear, “Each to their own”
People create stereotypes because they have limited exposure to the world (as far as traveling and seeing things first-hand)
People make assumptions because they reply on too much media for information.
And fourthly, I believe it can be mental issue because ones brain will make an assumption quickly which can lead to oversimplification and generalization.(A brain will naturally look for differences, and what one is familiar with or not) According to NCBI, this can lead to the oversimplification of a country’s culture, because people in general will focus on commonalities and overlook the diversity and individuality that exists within a culture (1).
Why cultural stereotypes can be problematic in today’s globalized world…
Lack of understanding. Cultural differences, poverty, etc., there is clearly not enough empathy given for those that cannot fit into a “perfect mold “ leaving one feeling like they don’t belong which can have negative effects on their wellbeing. Stereotypes can be problematic in today’s world because it can lead to discrimination, racism, and misunderstandings within certain groups of people. Furthermore, NCBI states, by having cultural stereotypes it can limit creativity (1). “Cultural stereotypes reduce innovation to set characteristics, making it difficult to see beyond the different stereotypes and recognize the potential for creativity and innovation. This can limit the development of new ideas and solutions, which can have negative effects on social and economic development” (NCBI, 1).
