Similar to Freud, Carl Rogers developed his theory from his extensive work with his patients. However, unlike Freud, he believed that people are typically healthy; being mentally healthy is the normal state. Although there are unhealthy people, they are not the norm or what one has to accept and live with throughout one’s life. Furthermore, Rogers believed that each person has one primary motivation—to realize his/her full potential or to be self-actualized. Finally, he posited that neurosis stems from incongruence between one’s real self and one’s ideal self. He applied this to his theory of counseling in the development of three therapeutic criteria that he felt were both necessary and sufficient to help the patient. These three qualities are now the foundation for modern person-centered therapy.
The three qualities that form the foundation of Rogerian therapy are empathy, congruence, and unconditional positive regard. These will be relatively easy to express for people you naturally like but can be difficult to express for people whom you do not like nor agree with.
Imagine that you are a psychologist working with a population of individuals that tend to be more difficult to work with, such as sex offenders, elderly patients with dementia, or mentally challenged children. Use the Internet, Argosy University library resources, and your textbook to research the concepts of Rogerian therapy and respond to the following questions:
Realistically, do you think it is possible to be congruent and to extend empathy and unconditional positive regard to these clients in a psychotherapeutic context? Why or why not?
How do you think clinicians practicing Rogerian therapy would approach these concepts for these clients?
How might Rogerian therapy be a helpful strategy for these clients?
Is it possible these concepts of Rogerian therapy could hinder treatment?

We all know that the Civil Rights Movement and the struggle for equality has produced martyrs. Some of the most famous martyrs of the Civil Rights Movement were Dr. Martin Luther king, Jr. and Malcolm X. But there were so many that were murdered for the right to be equal.
Can you research some of these people who gave the ultimate sacrifice for equality and freedom and tell their story to the class.

One of the most surprising recent success stories in the corporate world is the rapid turnaround of Chrysler under the leadership of CEO Sergio Marchionne. Chrysler went bankrupt during the 2008-2009 automotive industry crisis and needed a large bailout loan from the government. But Marchionne exceeded all expectations and not only returned Chrysler to profitability within two years but also managed to repay its loan from the government six years ahead of schedule.
But Marchionne is not your typical CEO. His approach to turning around Chrysler has been described as “tough love” and his habits of rapidly hiring and firing senior executives has raised some eyebrows. Simultaneously serving as both the CEO of Chrysler and CEO of Italian automaker Fiat, he is known as a workaholic and micromanager. Marchionne’s leadership style makes for an ideal case study due to his unique personality, and because there is plenty of articles written about him available in the Trident library and on the internet.
Review the background materials on leadership traits, behaviors, and styles. Then do some research on Sergio Marchionne’s leadership style and personality. Here are some articles to get you started:

Once you are finished with your research on Marchionne and have thoroughly reviewed the background materials on leadership traits, behaviors, and styles write a four to five page paper addressing the following questions. For each answer, make sure to cite at least one of the Case Assignment articles listed on this page as well as one of the required textbook chapters from the background materials such as Avery (2011), Hiriyappa (2009), or Kumar (2009):

In her commentary, “The Global Dimensions of Public Health Preparedness and Implications for US Action,” Moore (2012) points out that Public Health is truly a global issue; and she discusses what that means for us here in the US in terms of our need for preparedness. She suggests four areas for action: 1) sensitize practitioners to the global nature of diseases, 2) learn from the success of other countries, 3) US Investment in Global Health, and 4) acting locally on global issues.
Instructions
Your assignment is to write an essay in which you select the single area that you feel to be the most important for public health preparedness. Justify your position.
You can submit your paper in a Question and Answer format. In other words, list the questions and provide a short answer to each.
What is the Area for Action that you feel is most important for public health preparedness? (Please write 1 paragraph maximum here)
Hint: you will need to conduct your own scholarly research for information on the topic. For example, enter The Online Library and enter search terms, such as “Public Health Preparedness.” Be sure to check the box to limit your search to full-text access.
Why might each of the other dimensions be slightly less important? Be sure to cite sources rather than simply stating your opinion.

In this project, you will generate a five-part advocacy plan to ensure that your community of learners is fully supported and engaged in learning opportunities that meet their diverse, individual needs. Develop a 7- to 9-page plan that includes the following components:
Introduction: Setting the Stage
Set the stage by introducing your advocacy plan components with your classroom/teaching/professional context. This will include information on your learners’ backgrounds (race, culture, SES, language, special learning needs, etc.) as well as your geographic location. Also address any particularly “hot button” issues or current events in your local community that have the potential to inform your students’ classroom experiences (e.g. you live in an area where police/community relations are strained).
Part 1. The Educator’s Impact
Section One: This section is comprised of your personal reflection on your life experiences that inform your background that you bring with you to the classroom/educational setting. These topics will vary depending on who you are and where you live but may include things like your race, your childhood experiences in school, your geographic location as a child or adult, your family’s history with schooling, and so on. Be sure to consider how these issues do or could impact your teaching/educational leadership and make these connections explicit for the reader. (9i InTASC)
Section Two: Reflect on your own strengths and challenges as an educator committed to equality in the learning environment. What areas do you still need or want to learn more about to improve your practice with students/learners? Identify at least two resources or experiences that you need to have/use to address these gaps. Present a short rationale for your choices and your action plan to engage in that work. (9e InTASC)
Part 2. Educational Norms/Professional Interactions (3L InTASC)
One of the challenges in the classroom/educational setting can be effective communication that works well for a variety of learners and variety of messages. One strategy to help you ensure that your communication strategies are responsive and supportive is to develop classroom/educational setting norms that can guide your work as a community of learners.
In this section, develop a set of norms for communication that are appropriate for the age/content that you teach or lead. Be sure to identify exactly how you believe these strategies support the context you described in the introduction to your advocacy action plan. Your choices need to be attentive to the cultural dynamics that are present in your classroom/setting.
Part 3: Peer-to-peer Relationships (3o InTASC)
How do you model and encourage effective peer-to-peer relationships? Describe and explain how you will teach a strategy to your students that encourages relationships that are accepting and responsive to student diversity. Target the choices you make to the age/content that you teach. If you teach adolescents, you might focus on the power of language to include or exclude. If you teach young children, you might focus on strategies for learning to include others in games at recess. Choose one idea and develop it well, ensuring that you are detailing both why you have chosen it and how you would enact it.
Part 4: Family/Student Support (3a InTASC)
You will write this piece of your advocacy action plan as a recommendation to your administration or school grade level team to support family/community collaboration to meet student learning needs. If you work in an educational setting outside of a school, please adjust the audience of your piece accordingly (you might write this for a manager or supervisor instead of principal).
Reflecting on the resources and community supports that you identified during the course readings and activities, identify three effective ways to involve or include families in your students’ learning experiences. Address how these will provide opportunities for family engagement that may not be typically present in your school/educational setting (do not just report on what currently exists in the school site). Be sure that these are approaches that foster collaboration with families and can or would be supported by your school/educational site.
Part 5: Identifying your Role as an Educational Advocate for Students
After completing this course, you have developed a set of skills and understanding that deepens your understanding about your students and their lives and the impact that your teaching has on their experiences. What are you going to do with this knowledge? Educators are advocates for their students by default – you can choose to be proactive with this knowledge and work in areas/issues that are particularly meaningful for you. What role do you choose to take? How do you intend to advocate for your students? Identify at least two ways that you believe you can be a voice for your students and discuss how you envision yourself taking on this role.
**Please submit the entire advocacy action plan as one Word file with clear headers to identify each part of the plan. Please be sure that you are including appropriate in-text citations and references at the end of each section (not at the end of the entire plan) to support your ideas.
Support your statements with evidence from the Required Studies and your research. Cite and reference your sources in APA style.

Two quotes frame this week’s assignment:
“Treat everyone the same—differently.” (Littky, 2015, p. 155)
“Learning is to problem solve and think critically, to analyze and interpret different perspectives, to be creative and use the world as a tool to innovate, to be proficient in reading, writing, and math. Learning is expressing and working with the desire and interest to keep learning.” (Littky, 2015, p. 159)
Identify an idea you have generated based on your reading of this chapter that you believe you could implement in your classroom or professional practice, even in some small way. You might not be able to change the focus of the school and a major paradigm shift might not be in your control, but dream. What could you do that would result in the opportunity for deeper, more engaged learning for at least one of your students? Be creative.
Develop that experience or idea through a lesson plan, proposal for the activity, or other relevant document that fully describes what you envision. After doing so, write a short (2 page) reflection that articulates the rationale for the choice you made and how you hope this will further the pursuit of equity in your professional practice.
Support your statements with evidence from the Required Studies and your research. Cite and reference your sources in APA style
Based on this week’s Required Studies, develop material that weaves the following concepts as well as others you have gleaned from your studies this week:
How do the social identities (culture, ethnicity, and race) impact you, your students, and your school?
What assumptions do we make about people from different races, ethnicities, and cultures?
Pose your own answer to Sichel and Bacon’s (2015) question, “Why is there a dichotomy—where some students achieve and some students do not?” (p. 207).
Why is it important to develop equity in your classroom?
How will this perspective affect what you teach, and how will you teach it?
You may elect to show your learning in one of the following ways:
Write a 2- to 3-page reflection paper
Create a narrated Prezi or PowerPoint
Make a video of yourself discussing the prompts or a narrated video that uses graphics
Support your statements with evidence from the Required Studies and your research. Cite and reference your sources in APA style
