Assignment 1: Content Review
This week, you read Chapter 1 of the course text, which presents characteristics of teacher professionalism. In addition you reviewed the Code of Ethics for Minnesota Teachers and the National Education Association Code of Ethics. Considering these resources, how would you define the characteristics of a teaching professional, and how will codes of ethics shape your professional practice?
Your effectiveness as a teacher will be measured by the learning of the children in your future classrooms. As you participate in the required field experiences throughout this program, you will have multiple opportunities to observe children in a variety of classroom settings and reflect on their learning. In one of the media segments you viewed this week, Dr. Gonzalez-Mena provides pointers for observing children in classrooms. Describe the key elements of effective observation and explain how teachers can use this vital skill to support student learning.
In Chapter 5 of the course text, you learned about the philosophical underpinnings of education. You also heard teachers in the media segments talk about their teaching philosophies and missions. Using the table in Figures 5.1 of the course text, review the four prevailing philosophies of education. Identify the key elements in each of these philosophies. Then choose one of them and describe what kinds of activities you might see in a classroom in which the teacher is guided by this philosophy.
In the “High Expectations” media segment, Dr. Sternberg shares research and personal stories that support the need for teachers to hold high expectations for all students. Why is this teaching practice critical in today’s era of standards and accountability, which was addressed in Chapter 1 of the course text?

Essay Topics:
Consider the (numbered) topics below, categorized by more general topics. Consult me if you have another idea you would like to write about.
Topics Concerning Dismissive Notions about Ethics (Relativism, Skepticism, Egoism, etc.)
To what extent are different perspectives or attitudes about ethics comparably reasonable? Are all perspectives equal, including the Nazi perspective and Albert Fishs perspective? If not, then how might one draw a distinction between reasonable and unreasonable perspectives? Among reasonable perspectives, do you think a best perspective exists?
To what extent is it acceptable or perhaps even morally correct- to allow your own interests to supersede the interests of others?
NOTE: If you are going to bring up topics 1 or 2 at all, then it must be the topic of your entire essay. It is not acceptable to appeal to subjectivism, relativism, egoism, etc, in defense of a thesis on another topic. Example (this is an automatic low grade): Immanuel Kant attempts to formulate moral rules that everyone should follow, but each person has their own point of view, and their own standards that are right for them. Therefore, Kant has no business trying to tell anyone what standards to follow.
Topics Concerning Normative Ethical Theory
Defend utilitarianism against the apparent counterexamples we discussed in class (the chop-up-chuck case, the trolley cases, etc.) To do this, you have to argue (at least) one of two things, (a) that the decision in the alleged counterexample does not really maximize happiness and hence is not recommended by utilitarianism, or (b) that the decision in the alleged counterexample is morally correct after all.
Critique Mill’s qualitative version of utilitarianism. Consider focusing on one or two of the following questions.
Does Mill succeed in defeating the objection that utilitarianism recommends gluttony and degrades human lies he appeal only to the hedonistic notion of pleasure or enjoyment, or does he cheat by appealing to some other values?
Is he correct in claiming that mental or intellectual pleasures are a better kind of pleasure than sensual pleasures, that they cant be compared or weighed against each other, or even that they constitute a distinct kind of pleasure in the first place?
Explain and evaluate Aristotles claim that every virtue is a mean between two extremes. Consider virtues that dont easily fit into Aristotles picture, discussing and evaluating what you think is the best possible attempt to accommodate such examples.
Guidelines and Standards:
Write tersely. (Make each point as quickly and efficiently as possible.) However, your draft will almost certainly need to be about 1500-2000 words in order to be complete. If it is shorter, then consider whether you have sufficiently covered all the relevant issues. The accepted file formats are listed where you submit the essay. Use a legible, reasonable sized font, and double space. You must write grammatically, produce solid reasoning, discuss potential objections to your view, and demonstrate competence with class materials. The rubric is attached below. Use it to check your work before submitting.
Response Paper #3: Journal Article Review: I AM a Man!: Race, Masculinity, and the 1968 Memphis Sanitation Strike
Read: Steve Estes, I AM a Man!: Race, Masculinity, and the 1968 Memphis Sanitation Strike, Labor History, Spring 2000 41(2): 153-170. (It is attached to this assignment.)
To begin, engage this article in this way:
The author has provided us with an introduction and conclusion, even if they have not explicitly highlighted/defined them as such.
Read the introduction first and then read the conclusion. The introduction should have the authors thesis/argument and the conclusion should explain what the author has attempted to argue or prove in the article.
Go back to the beginning and read the entire article.
Pay close attention to how the author has organized their work. Does the article have sections? If so, each section should have its own purpose (sub-thesis).
Identify the authors main arguments, and key concepts and terms.
Now answer the questions below:
1. What is the thesis/argument/main point of the authors article? Put in your own words.
2. What are the sub-theses/arguments to the authors subsections? Put in your own words.
3. Based on your current knowledge of gender and Black protest, has the author sufficiently supported the thesis/argument? Explain.
4. What are the authors main arguments, and key concepts and terms? Explain.
5. What are your own thoughts of the article? What are your big takeaways from it as they relate to this course Gender and Black Protest? Be specific.
Although there are skills and behaviors that are considered typical for children at certain stages of development, every child develops in his or her own unique way. In what ways is this apparent in the media segment? Identify at least one specific example and formulate your reasoning.
While child development is most often discussed in terms of the three major domain–physical, cognitive/language, and social-emotionalconsidering the “whole child” is key to understanding individual children and fostering healthy development. Describe an example from the media segment that underscores the importance of paying attention to all domains and supporting the development of the whole child. Be sure to clarify your reasoning.
As a teaching professional, you will need to apply your knowledge of child development to create a developmentally appropriate learning environment. Consider an example of how this knowledge will assist you as you create an environment that will support learning for all children.
For this assignment you will discuss, evaluate and share your opinion on the crimes

explain why you think Arthur Miller chose to begin his play in the sick girl’s room, and at that specific moment in time. How does the background knowledge contribute to your understanding of what is happening in Act One, before anything is directly stated in the dialogue? What effect does this have on readers? For example, do you feel like you know what is happening before the characters in the play do, or do you feel lost like you don’t know what is happening? Why? Use specific evidence from the text to support your assertions.
