question 1.Instructions
Please provide a 250-500 word reflective response to the following questions:
Reflect on the role of spirituality in your life past and present. Define what being spiritual is to you. How would you define your worldview? Reflect on how your spirituality (whatever you define that) informs your worldview. How will it inform your professional life? What “rituals” have been handed down, will you continue, and pass on
question 2. Instructions
Please provide a 250-500 word reflective response to the following question:
What rules can be followed by someone dedicated to the truth?
This activity is designed to assist students in the process of developing personal and professional ethics as they become more adept and competent at communicating with individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds. Evaluate the following arbitrary rules of interaction:
First, never speak about a falsehood.
Second, bear in mind that the act of withholding the truth is always potentially a lie; and that in each instance in which the truth is withheld, a significant moral decision is required.
Third, the decision to withhold the truth should never be based on personal needs, such as a need for power, a need to be liked, or a need for protection from challenge.
Fourth, and conversely, the decision to withhold the truth must always be based entirely upon the needs of the person or people from whom the truth is being withheld.
Fifth, the assessment of another’s needs is an act of responsibility, which is so complex that it can only be executed wisely when one operates with genuine love for the other.
Sixth, the primary factor in the assessment of another’s needs is the assessment of that person’s capacity to utilize the truth for his or her own spiritual growth.
Finally, in assessing the capacity of another to utilize the truth for spiritual growth, it should be borne in mind that our tendency is to underestimate rather than overestimate this capacity.

Connecting Your Audience, Purpose, and Message
Analyzing Your Audience
A. Directions
Step 1: Select a Special Occasion Topic
Your speech should be for a special occasion. You may use a special
occasion from the list above, or choose one of your own. Consider the
following brainstorming techniques as you generate your speech topic:
Word Association
Clustering
Freewriting
Distilling Your Ideas
Doing a Little Homework
Step 2: Consider Purpose, Thesis, and Audience
Identify your purpose, thesis, and audience. Imagine your audience
and how you would want to convey your message to this audience.
2a. Purpose
After you determine your topic, you should refine it into the general
purpose and specific purpose by asking yourself what you hope to
accomplish with your speech and what you hope your audience will take
away with them.
As you plan your speech and consider the purpose, ask yourself the following questions:
What do you want your audience to know?
What do you want your audience to think?
What do you want your audience to feel?
What do you want your audience to do?
2b. Thesis
Your thesis statement should clearly articulate the purpose and main
points of your speech. Defining a thesis is essentially constructing the
structural outline of your speech. When you have defined a thesis, you
have essentially articulated to yourself what your speech will say, what
position you will take up, and what the speech’s purpose is.
As you plan your speech and consider the thesis, ask yourself the following questions:
What is the most important message of your speech?
Why should/will your audience care about your message?
2c. Audience
When planning your special occasion speech, it is important to know
about the audience and to adapt the message to the audience. You want to
prepare an audience-centered speech, or a speech focusing on the
audience.
The audience is the target of your speech, and effectively
communicating your theme to them is the goal of good public speaking. As
such, you should always keep the audience in mind both before and
during your time on stage.
As you plan your speech and consider the audience, ask yourself the following questions:
What is the correct context for the speech? Where and when will it be given?
Who is the audience and what are their characteristics?
Why has the audience come to hear the speech?
What are the interests of the audience?
What does the audience know about your topic?
What is the audience’s point of view on the topic?
How will the audience likely react to your speech?
Step 3: Create Notes
Create notes or bullet points that you can refer to while presenting
your speech. You should not read your speech word-for-word from your
notes.
Step 4: Use Clear Language
Ensure that the language you use is consistently clear and
appropriate to the audience, which helps the audience connect with you
and your topic. Explain any technical jargon you use where necessary.
Cognitive psychologists and linguists suggest that word choice has
significant framing effects on the perceptions, memories, and attitudes
of speakers and listeners.
Refer back to the following lesson for support:
Addressing a Diverse Audience
Your Audience’s Group Membership and Physical Context
Relating to Your Audience

The spirit of this assignme
i have attached the rubric how she grade it.
Prompt:
The spirit of this assignment is for you to think creatively as you view leadership in the world around you. Your first task is to take original photos of at least three examples of leadership Important: The images you use must be original photographs that you have taken yourself (not downloaded from Google Images, etc.). The images can be of anything that reminds you of the leadership principles we have covered in this course and/or the Northouse (2022) text. If you would like to take pictures of leaders that you know, that is fine. If you would like to take pictures of something else that reminds you of leadership, that is fine too. Students have taken pictures of people in a workplace, of family members, of places where they learned valuable lessons, of statues, artwork, and even insects in a garden, as well as many other objects that reminded them of leadership ideas covered in this course. There is no specific requirement for the type of images I am looking for. The pictures will be different for each student. Your next task is to submit these three images along with an academicallty supported explanation of how/why each image depicts leadership (i.e., specifically which leadership concept(s) and an explanation of how/why it represents that concept). Submit your final product in a format of your choice — This can be a Word document, a slideshow, a video, or another type of creative expression that includes your three images and supported explanation. Many students simply take three pictures of something or someone in the world around them that reminds them of leadership principles, include it in an MSWord document, and include a short 1-2 page description of the images in context with leadership. This is fine. However, you are not limited to that. I welcome creativity! That said, do not be overwhelmed by the options.
The assignment does include a rubric (see below) to guide you, particularly for the written portion. However, you will notice that it has very few “strict” guidelines for the format of your final project. This is because I really want each student to take a creative approach. I encourage you to complete this assignment in the way that makes the most sense to you. Some students may want to submit images with a separate paper describing the images, some students may want to include the images and written explanation in the same paper, and others may want to include both the images and the written portion in a PowerPoint or Prezi. I have also had students make a short video with voiceover narration. It’s really up to you. There are very few “rules” that you will need to follow for the final format. (Yes, I know this is unusual!). However, do not overlook these important keys to the assignment:
(A) Images: Three original images that depict leadership/leadership concepts and
(B) Critical Thinking/Summary: a thoughtfully written explanation (with citations) for each image that explains the how/why/what in regard to leadership/leadership concepts each image represents
(C) Critical Thinking/Resources: the written explanation is enriched with cited sources and demonstrates critical thinking/understanding of course concepts.
Deadline: This assignment is due by 23:59 on Sunday, March 17, 2024.
In Summary:
Images: Students portray at least three original images (i.e., photos YOU have taken yourself) of leadership through a creative expression including, but not limited to:Three (3) Photograph(s) (creatively displayed in electronic form)
Video presentation in streaming format (i.e., uploaded to YouTube and link provided)
Prezi or PowerPoint
Website or blog development
Other creative format: must be approved in advance by the course instructor
Written Explanation: The equivalent of the 2-3 page written portion of this assignment (whether in a document, video, slideshow, etc.) must also be included to explain and provide support for your knowledge of leadership.
Instructions:
Take at least three (3) original photos of someone or something that embodies the leadership principles and theories covered in this course.
Write an explanation of how each of the images relates to leadership/leadership concepts.Be sure to mention and cite any supportive research such as theories, authors, models, etc. in your written explanation.
Length: Approximately 2 pages double spaced if writing in MSWord; approx.. 300 – 400 words
Submit the file(s) via this Canvas assignment link — including any electronic files that contain your images.Special note: most electronic forms of design allow you to place both images and text in the file (including MS Word, Prezi, PowerPoint, Web / Blog, etc.) If you are able to include both the photos and written summary for each image in one design product, it is not necessary to write a separate paper for your written explanation of each image; instead, place your text within your design. (e.g., slide with an image and written summary or separate slides for each image and associated written summary). However, to assess the length of your written explanations, it is helpful to draft your written explanations in MS Word before adding the content to the slideshow/presentation.
References: Cite supportive sources in APA as in-text citations within the written summary for each image and list cited sources on an APA formatted References page or slide at the end of your paper or design.
If submitting in MSWord: Double-spaced; 12 pt. Times New Roman font; If PowerPoint, Canva, Prezi, or other creative digital format, choose a font/font size and color for your design that can be easily read.
