showing the symptoms of culture shocks when she came to know that her account has been frozen as uncollectible until further notice. 5. Recommendation: The video is depicted as a culturally “safe space”, because it encourages new and creative ideas, risk-taking and open and welcoming discussions (Holley & Steiner, 2005). All these “safe” elements are protecting Emily from psychological and emotional harm. However, the safe space scenario can also be altered to enable an even safer space. --Tim has actively encouraged Emily’s participation at the start with a smile and some simple questions (Holley & Steiner, 2005), enabling Emily to feel a little more secure about disclosing certain facts. - Julia, C. (2003, July) proposes that to figure
In the first three minutes of the YouTube video, the Mythbusters conduct an experiment to observe a person’s driving ability while using a cell phone and while driving drunk. To do so, the experimenters come up with the hypothesis, “driving using a cell phone is just as dangerous as drunk driving.” There are two independent variables. One variable is the cell phone, and the other is the alcohol. On the other hand, the dependent variable is the instructor who is giving the driving test. They test this hypothesis using three experimental conditions. First, to get acquainted with the course, each of the two people drive cell phone free and sober. The next experimental condition consists of Jamie, one of the experimenters, distracting each driver with a phone
I found the videos, F.A.T. city to be extremely interesting and informative. I believe that the main message of the F.A.T. city videos that we must take the time to understand the learning disabled child and use our knowledge to create appropriate lessons, as well as, use the best practices in our teaching. I feel the most beneficial way to share this information with my colleagues would be to have them participate in the activities presented in the video. I was surprised and intrigued by many of the points during the video, but following points were the most interesting to me:
After watching the video Precious Knowledge, the first example of ethnic studies being threatened/ facing elimination is that senate is passing bills like 2881 that act against diversity and programs that support and culture beyond what is sought to be “fit” in the American educational system. Programs that promote ethnic studies gives students the pride and knowledge of where they have come from and therefore they feel more engaged in the classroom. Leaders like Tom Horne have the right to their own opinion but are being oppressive by not embracing the culture of different ethnic groups. By not attending these classes and trying to relate to these diverse communities; he is creating a dystopia to the American youth. Political leaders should
1.) What is one definition of culture from the sheet "What is Culture?" and what was an illustration/example of this definition that you found in the video?
After watching the Ted Talk video, I do agree with Hanauer and that inequality within the U.S and the triple down theory will only result in a economic decrease for all. What I found convincing was the overcasting theme of not status nor wealth but, the healthy competition for all classes and genders. This statement is logical and yet, fair, his example was that raising the minimum wage is one way to prevent the trickle theory and the decrease of economic growth. Simply, because rising the minimum wages benefits everyone and sets the foundation for a more equal ideology of economic balance pertaining to the United States.
I am personally more supportive of the anti-wall, however, I think it depends on the crime. For people who committed crimes dealing with things such as drugs, burglary, and abuse, I feel like they would be better outside the walls being watched. It gives them more of a chance of rehabilitating themselves rather than just being thrown in a cell. For crimes such as murder, I think that keeping the criminals behind walls is a lot safer of an option.
There are many impressions that war is stimulating and fun. Many are told that war will benefit them and that it’s a good thing to do. The stories we listened to in class reveals the dramatic, unchanging truth about war. Many people have lost friends, family members, and peers in the wars. Some veterans have seen their friend, family,and etc past right before their eyes fighting war alongside of them. Many veterans have lost all types of their body parts in the war. People think joining the service and coming home is nothing but receiving a lump sum of money after war, not thinking about the catastrophic things that they will remember. Is the war actually a good place to be?
In the spring of 2015, I was a junior in high school. The day I initially heard about the “SAE” video, started like any other. I had gotten ready to leave for school when my mom stopped me to watch something on the news. This wasn’t abnormal at all so I looked to see what she was talking about. As we heard the story and what had happened we were both flabbergasted. Neither of us could believe that that had happened, much less at the University of Oklahoma. When I got to school, the video was the major talk considering we had people recently graduate from our high school and pledge to that fraternity. It seemed as if our school was in shock that people, specifically the people we knew, would say and participate in something so horrific.
In the short video we were presented with, Myth Busters were attempting to venture off and hypothesize whether or not driving while talking on a cell phone was just as dangerous, if not more, than driving while intoxicated. The conditions used to to test this hypothesis are two individuals who were given three driving tests all on the same course, followed by analyzing the results of the driving exams. After configuring the data that they had obtained, they came to the irrefutable conclusion that, although both highly menacing, driving while on a cellular device was much more perilous than driving impaired. Like every other experiment, this too has an independent and dependent variable. The independent variable in this observation are the drivers
For the first part of my observation I noticed that the environment was not in the best shape that it could be, so I asked the program supervisor “John” why the environment looked like it was under repair and he explained that the whole school was under construction. Through my observation I did notice that for the most part the environment was safe, but it did have major hazards that concerned me. The environment had safe ratios, for example, in the specific class that I observed there was seven infants and two adults the caretakes informed me that it is regularly eight infants in the classroom four infants per adult, but a child was out sick with the flu. In addition, I noticed that in the front part of the classroom where the door entry and fire extinguisher are located there was a fire and emergency plan that includes emergency information and a plan to get the infants to safety. The classroom also had emergency numbers posted by the phone area and I was told that all emergency cards were stored in a file card holder that is easy to access. Furthermore, throughout my observation I noticed that children could take risk opportunities like running around, climbing, and playing in tent areas without injury and with constant supervision. The classroom I observed was accepting of constant interactions, but they always made it clear to the children that it was not appropriate to hurt one another. However, although the program had many good qualities that
I am thoroughly impressed with the video I watched. I have never seen a more efficient delivery of health care by any facility. Virginia Mason Hospital & Medical Center adapted the policies and practices used by car assembly lines to help alleviate some of the disconcerting problems of the health care delivery system. The medical center aptly named this policy change “the war on waste” as it intends to remove everything that adds no value to the customer or patients.
One example of physical development I observed from this video is how adults involved the babies in activities that involved movement. This let's the baby's body feels a moving sensation. This helps them to understand how their body can move through space. Adults help develop the baby's understand of this by holding, rocking, walking, and dancing with the
Technology is constantly developing and has been for many years now. Many of these developments have centered around digital video and improving the ways in which we view television. Developments such as Netflix, a company that allows people to stream a wide range of movies and television shows, have not only caused a time shift, but have also allowed for an increased flexibility in the temporal structures of television. The different temporalities of television can be seen as it moves from broadcast modes of distribution, to on demand services like Netflix and further suggests that television is a changing service in its relationship to public life. This will be demonstrated through an analysis of the broadcast of television shows and movies,
The show is an American hidden camera/practical joke reality T.V. series produced and written by Allen Funt. Here, the concept of exhibitionism mentioned above aptly applies to this series. This is because the show, Candid Camera, conclusively acquaints spectators with the exhibition of domestic video recordings in a mass media TV context. Thus, by portraying exclusive representations on public screens, Allen Hunt succeeds in making the audience feel comfortable while simultaneously familiarizing them with representations of acts performed by those individuals who remained unaware that he/she was being filmed. Here, the show inevitably empowers the notion of exhibitionism. For instance, the program uses concealing cameras to shoot regular people facing uncomfortable situations, this sometimes includes the use of trick props. Here, the consciousness of long-time spectators or voyeurs is inevitably affected. This is because, hypothetically speaking, as long-time audiences watch the show’s pranks, they could grow to believe that a similarly awkward or discomforting situation could befall them. Here, the voyeurs role and that of the exhibitioner has inevitably reversed. For example, audiences with such a frame of thought become increasingly mindful of their behaviors in social surroundings. Here, the individual self takes charge as the performer when one believes that he/she is under the scrutiny of others. Thus, these people that perform with their “audience” in mind are consequently conscious that another person may be monitoring the compatibility prevalent within their actions, behaviors and their individuality. Such conscious performances are not a staging done solely by the individual. Rather, it is an interplay connecting the self or person, the environment, and the audience, created to provide others with impressions of oneself. Thus, the instances mentioned above consequently prompts individuals to react
1.3 Aim: This report aims to provide a brief information about safe and unsafe spaces as taking a video as an example.
