Identify the similarities and differences between Vygotsky’s approach and Piaget’s approach

The major purpose of this discussion is to help you think about the impact of screen time on children and to give you an opportunity to clarify your own valued and beliefs about how television watching effects children. You will read at least one article about the impact of television on children, and then you will view a show or video targeted at the preschool aged child and tell us about it. By successfully completing this discussion activity, you will demonstrate Module Outcome 2: Identify the similarities and differences between Vygotsky’s approach and Piaget’s approach, Module Outcome 3: Explain the effects of television on preschoolers, and Module Outcome 5: Discuss how aggression develops in preschool children. For full credit, please complete both parts of this discussion by replying to both parts. Part #1: Read at least ONE of the following journal articles about television viewing in preschoolers: •Children’s hyperactivity, television viewing, and the potential for child effects. •The relation between television exposure and executive function among preschoolers. •Maternal Beliefs and Parenting Practices Regarding Their Preschool Child’s Television Viewing. Next, answer the following questions: •Which article did you read, and what is the most important thing you learned from reading the article? •Based on what you have read about development, briefly explain your thoughts about how aggression develops in preschool children. •Explain how Vygotsky and Piaget would respond to both your article and your thoughts about children and aggression? How are they the same or different? Give an example to support your answer. Part #2: Watch at least one television show or video clip intended for the preschool child. Give the title or a brief description of the television program or scene and then answer the following questions. 1.Is the television program designed specifically for young children? How do you know? Did it intentionally aim at providing an educational message? If so, what was the intended message? If not, what do you think a preschooler would have learned from viewing the show? 2.Identify several stimuli (e.g., characters, acoustics, colors, themes) that you think a preschooler would most readily attend to, and explain why. What image or message would they have learned from these salient features of the show? 3.How many aggressive or violent acts are in the show? Briefly describe one. Try and explain this scene through the eyes of a preschooler (e.g., what might he or she be thinking or concluding). What role could this play in the development of aggression in a child? 4.How many prosocial or humorous acts are in the show? Briefly describe one. Try and explain this scene through the eyes of a preschooler (e.g., what might he or she be thinking or concluding). 5.Are references made to both males and females? How is each portrayed? Were there any role or cultural stereotypes? Was there any comment, scene, or action that might send a message about social norms or expectations (e.g., discipline, materialism, relationships)? 6.Would you let your own preschool child view this television show? Explain why or why not. Please give a personal example as you support your decision.

Discuss the controversy that exists over the concept of “recovered” versus “false” memories of traumatic events.

Discuss the controversy that exists over the concept of “recovered” versus “false” memories of traumatic events. What are the most important issues for cognitive psychologists to address, and what issues (i.e., pragmatic, ethical, and theoretical) are they likely to face in doing so? Why has “recovered” memories actually fallen is some disfavor of late?

Decisions-actions of governments

1. How did commerce at this stage of societal development influence the decisions/actions of governments? Some very specific results of these decisions influenced the circumstances we have today. Be sure to include additional links you consulted to formulate your response.

2. Identify and describe at least one example of how European expansion and the development of the “state” raised the issue of racism. The UMUC library can help with this. Be specific with your examples. Be sure to include additional links you consulted to formulate your response.

the atrocities that some children have to endure.

In 200 – 300 words Digging deeper into the research will illustrate the extent of the atrocities that some children have to endure. In this class, we’ve focused a lot on the ethical responsibility to protect participants in the process of a research project. However, I also have to remind everyone that we have to protect ourselves in our work and in our research. To all, what are some ways that you can do this?

Lease a Lot
Round Table Rental Yards provides construction equipment, trailers, crutches, etc., on short term rentals. Historically, Art, the owner, has purchased the items that he rents out, but his business has been expanding so rapidly that he is considering both straight leases and lease purchase arrangements. He has decided to use the procurement of a new bulldozer with a list price of $290,000 as a test case.
If he purchases the bulldozer outright, then he must also decide whether he should plan on overhauling it or selling it after 3 years. This overhaul will cost about $150,000, but it should double the useful life of the bulldozer. However, the bulldozer’s value on the used market would drop from $180,000 after Year 3 to $135,000 after Year 6. Its annual operation and maintenance costs will start at $25,000 and increase by $7500 each year. This increase is due to increased use more than to increased age, so it is not affected by the overhaul.
The manufacturer has a subsidiary that specializes in financing through leases and lease purchases. In both cases, the subsidiary uses a term of 5 years with no option to extend it further. Art believes that other contract periods could be negotiated, but for this initial analysis he believes that their standard term is representative of the other possibilities. For the standard lease, the annual payment is $45,000. For the lease-purchase, the annual payment increases by $42,000. Although lease contracts can be written either way, for this lease Art would be responsible for the overhaul cost at Year 3.
Art will insure the bulldozer for theft, catastrophic damage, and liability. This policy will cost him $9500 each year. He will spend about 5% of the rental income transporting it to and from job sites. On the plus side, he expects it to bring in $175,000 the first year. Rental income should increase by $30,000 each year until it hits a maximum utilization of $300,000 per year. If secured loans are available for 9%, which financing plan do you recommend?
Art’s business can depreciate the bulldozer under a 5-year modified accelerated cost recovery system (MACRS depreciation schedule), with a combined state and federal tax rate of 41%. Do tax considerations change your recommendation?
