False Confessions

False Confessions & Recording Of Custodial Interrogations

  1. What did you learn about how and why false confessions occur?
  2. Do you think this is a problem- why or why not?
  3. Do you agree or disagree with the Innocence Project’s proposed solutions to this problem?

Describe a subgroup from your community (include relevant demographics such as gender, socioeconomic status, age).

/in /by

As a public health professional, it is likely that you will conduct focus groups as part of community health assessments. Focus groups are useful when exploring community issues and developing good survey questions. As with all research, planning the focus group is important so that the data you seek can be easily and reliably collected and will yield valid results. A focus group protocol is created to describe all planned procedures. It serves as a road map to the public health professional detailing what he or she plans to do when conducting a particular focus group. For this week’s Assignment, review the readings on qualitative research skills to help you develop a focus group protocol.

The Assignment (4–6 pages):

Submit  5– to 6-page paper outlining a focus group protocol:

  • Describe a subgroup from your community (include relevant demographics such as gender, socioeconomic status, age).
  • Restate the public health problem in the community health profile you created in Week 5.
  • Create six questions for the focus group related to the identified public health problem (e.g., contributing factors, potential solutions, assets available to solve the problem). 
  • Describe methods you would use for recruiting participants and collecting and managing the data. Explain why these methods would be effective.
  • Create a brief (two-paragraph) consent form that summarizes the reason for the focus group, procedures to be followed, participants’ rights, and procedures for maintaining confidentiality

What do you think Christine Frederick feared when she said “Our greatest enemy is the woman with the career?” Page 29

/in /by

Chapter 1:

1. What do you think Christine Frederick feared when she said “Our greatest enemy is the woman with the career?” Page 29

Christine Frederick’s quote went against what Ellen Richards was working towards. I think by her saying this, she was fearful that women would go into the workforce and forget about their home and role as a homemaker. She might have also feared that a woman would wait until she finished school to get married and have children. A woman with a career would have other priorities, not just to please her husband and to procreate. Instead, she suggested that a woman can practice her skills as in the home, for example decorating her house and planning balanced meals for her own children.

2. Ellen Richards was accepted in MIT as a “special student” because they didn’t want have the precedent of coeducation. Is this something that could still be happening in today’s society? A woman having to be unknown or not on a roster because of her gender?

It seems silly that in the 21st century, women can be rejected into schools because of their gender. I don’t think this is an issue in schools. I think it is more common in the work force, specifically in the writing world. Many female authors have pseudonames because publishers won’t even look at their books if they are written by females. Many famous books/series, for example the Harry Potter series written by J.K. Rowling, would never have been published. 

Chapter 2:

1. Why did women carry a heavier burden during the domestic sanitary uplift?

It was easier for men to upkeep the outside of the home. They could hire someone to fix the plumbing or to aid with construction of the house. Women were responsible inside the home because they were deemed more fit. They had to make sure the home was clean and their kids were healthy. Although some middle/upperclass women could afford to pay for help, they still had to make sure everything was done right to avoid someone catching ill. 

2. The end of the chapter states “we may find ourselves turning to those old texts on household sanitation and bacteriology for more than historical insight” (54). Do you think this is true or has our science come far enough?

Being in the science field has showed me that science has come so far in preventing the spread of diseases in everyday life. Every hospital/clinic I have volunteered/interned at has SDS books that can help anyone in any situation. Even in our homes, all of our cleaning supplies have warning signs and directions that help even the novice cleaner. I think the foreshadow or threat in this book is dramatic and incorrect. We also know many of the ways bacteria/germs were handled in the past were incorrect.

How each teacher models what you read and learned about formative assessments?

/in /by
  1. Formative Assessments

According to Chapter 1 of the required text, Formative assessment is assessment FOR learning. Summative assessment is assessment OF learning. Formative assessments occur during the lesson as opposed to the end of a unit of instruction and should be the primary focus of assessment in schools. Additionally, formative assessments allow the teacher to support learning by generating feedback to students to determine their current progress and where they are in relation to mastering the objective and/or standard.

View the following short videos:

  1. Keeping It Relevant and “Authentic”
  2. Assess and Plan with Exit Tickets

Discuss:

  1. How each teacher models what you read and learned about formative assessments?
  2. What evidence did you see and hear regarding formative assessments being an assessment FOR learning?  More specifically, how did each teacher assess during learning?
  3. How were they able to determine the current progress of their students in relation to mastering the objective?  How did each teacher model the provision of feedback?
  4. What connections can you make between the teachers’ strategies to assess for learning and their eventual assessment of learning through a summative assessment? In other words, what can you see coming as preparation for a larger, more comprehensive summative assessment?

Guided Response: Respond to a minimum of two classmates’ posts. What perceptions did you share? How did your perceptions differ?

Note: Before the last day of the week, you are expected to provide a secondary response to any comments or questions your instructor may have provided. This is part of the grading criteria as a demonstration of critical thinking.

  1. Standards and Objectives

a.       Describe the purpose of a learning standard (referred to as a goal in Chapter 1) and the critical components of a learning objective. 

o    How would you differentiate between the two if attempting to explain it to somebody else?

o    What is the relationship between formative assessments during instruction and the standards and objectives of that lesson? 

b.      Take the challenge Karen Lea presents in her blog article Meaningful Connections: Objectives and Standards. Select a grade level standard and design two learning objectives AND a way to assess students FOR learning for each objective.  Be sure to use the criteria for writing high-quality objectives as discussed in your assigned reading and videos.

Guided Response: Respond to at least one classmate with objectives and assessment ideas in the same grade range you chose (Pre-K-2nd, 3-5, 6-8, 9-12, and other) and one with objectives and assessment ideas in a completely different grade range. 

·         Are their objectives clear and measurable? 

·         Do they identify specifically, what the STUDENT will be doing and how?

·         Are they aligned (related) to the given standard?

It is important to remember professionalism in your feedback.  You are to give constructive feedback by giving the author a different lens with which to view their original ideas.  Therefore, provide them with a specific suggestion for making their objective and/or assessment more complex according to Bloom’s Taxonomy

Note: Before the last day of the week, you are expected to provide a secondary response to any comments or questions your instructor may have provided. This is part of the grading criteria as a demonstration of critical thinking.
