Required Text: Santrock, J. (2012). Adolescence, 16th ed.

MY english level: when I went to the Deaf school and then I learnt what Deaf world was like, which fits my life well. Today I'm still learning the deepest of Deaf culture. Being Deaf can’t be the main barrier to lead to the failure of the big life dreams that I have. My life has been affected in various ways because of my status but that doesn’t make me fail in making my own decisions on my life. Learning about the Deaf characters and culture has made me view my status in a positive manner making me think on the privileges that the society has offered to me by giving me a chance to utilize the important privileges delegated to me. Though the society has offered several positive privileges to the Deaf, some of the people focus much on empowering the underprivileged hence hindering the Deaf from making special developments in their lives.When I was in a hearing school, I often felt overwhelmed and wanted to avoid studying and never wanted to go to college. My parents tried to convince me that school was extremely important, but I did not listen to them. One day, I told my mother that I wanted to receive a better education in a deaf school, and my mother did not want me to go to a deaf school because she believed that I did not care about education for my life. A few days later, I felt so disappointed that I was forced to learn unwanted lessons. I decided to keep telling my mother my goal was to go to a deaf school and my mother finally accepted it. I started to be joyful at that news and readied for a better education. As a college student, I applied for City college of San Francisco to learn more English and general studies and then transferred to the University. I am majoring in communication and public relations and minor in digital media. I personally love working with people, I feel very happy seeing them satisfied with their present and looking forward to their future, and I love learning different cultures, backgrounds, beliefs, traditions, and many things that I have never learnt before, although what i really would be glad to add to my personal experience is developing a new project, to develop a new website to make the hearing and Deaf worlds one unit so they will be able to communicate with each other to learn about their different worlds.My major is Communication and my minors are Digital Media and Family studies part of my passion is to do my research and analysis on negative things and change them in a positive way.""""""""" I went there for class and felt "wow" about the building and respect different religions. I love learning different things

  • I am majoring in communication and minoring in public relations and family studies, I personally love working with people, I feel very happy seeing them satisfied with their present and looking forward to their future, I love learning different cultures, backgrounds, beliefs, traditions, and many things that I have never learnt before. My goal to make the hearing and Deaf worlds one unit so they will be able to communicate with each other to learn about their different worlds and so that we can get more opportunities. I am wondering if I can volunteer for one week-on August 18 until 25 and then after, I will take my time to socialize with different people. It would be a great experience for me. Thank you. Hope to hear from you soon.

I would like to make a new website which looks somewhat like Facebook and Couchsurfing which serves both the Deaf and Hearing people whatever race and religion they are, everybody can join the social media and make new friends all over the world which will allow the possibility of making new friends, having a familiar face to visit outside your country, have a person guide you around a new city to learn new things like Deaf and Hearing cultures, countries' history, cultures, foods and etc

Unformatted Attachment Preview

Attached is a form you can use to keep a media diary. Between now and next module pick one 24 hour period when you can track you media use. Next module you will compare your experiences to typical adolescent experiences. 24 Hour Media Diary In a typical day, most children and adolescents engage with multiple forms of media including television, music, websites, movies, books and magazines, video games, instant messaging, and more. Between now and next Module, pick one 24-period in which you keep a record of all of your media use. You can carry this sheet with you and fill it out, or you can carry a small notebook and transfer it to the sheet later, but don’t wait until the end of the day, or you’ll likely forget some items. Please pick a typical day. If you know you will be camping in Yellowstone or hiding under a rock for a day, pick a different day! Please record general details of what media you used. If you listen to your MP3 player for an hour, you don’t need to list all of the songs you heard. Similarly, if you surf the web, you don’t need to list each website you visited. Do note names of magazines, television programs, and movies watched, and if you spend a decent amount of time at a certain website or listening to certain radio station or album, you can note that as well. Please note the context in which your media use took place. Did you watch a movie at home, in the theater, or at a friend’s house? What else were you doing while watching? Talking with friends? Studying? Specifically note if you were using multiple forms of media at once. Also, note any messages that struck you or any specific content that you think might be relevant to kid’s development. Time (e.g. 6- 7pm) Type of Media (e.g. television) Additional Details (e.g. Daily Show & Colbert) Context (e.g. At home, eating dinner, with friends) Messages Time Type of Media Additional Details Context Messages In a 6-8 page paper, you will introduce your topic, make recommendations, and support those recommendations with your scholarly research and information from the textbook and class activities. This paper should not simply repeat the information you already presented in your video. Instead, use the paper as a starting point to demonstrate your understanding of concepts, terms, and research findings from class. Cite your sources using APA style. Also, make sure to specifically consider diversity and adolescent development. How might the issues you are presenting be shaped by culture, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, etc. The emphasis of this paper should be on accurately and creatively applying course material. Make sure you don’t spend too much time providing details about possible solutions or strategies, or you won’t have enough room to focus on course material. The paper is worth 40 points. Grading will evaluate clear communication, critical thinking and application of psychology content, and how you address diversity. Please look at the full rubric before beginning your paper so you know what I’ll be looking for. A. Teachers In module 6 we learned about parents who were authoritative, authoritarian, and permissive. Now, in chapter 10, the textbook explains how teachers can also be authoritative, authoritarian, and permissive (pages 347-348). Think back to one of your high school teachers and describe his/her approach. Was this style authoritative, authoritarian, permissive? Also describe your response to this teaching style. Does it match what's described in the text? Look over your timeline, thinking specifically about Person-Environment Fit (page 348-349). Look at some of your timeline posts from early, middle, and late adolescence. Then go here and answer some questions: When did your environment best fit your personal, developmental needs? When was there a mismatch? C. Person-Environment Fit Look over your timeline, thinking specifically about Person-Environment Fit (pg 340). Look at some of your timeline posts from early, middle, and late adolescence. When did your environment best fit your personal, developmental needs? When was there a mismatch? * B. Diversity in schools The textbook describes differences in schooling experiences based on SES and ethnicity (pages 354-357) and the processes for encouraging positive relationships among diverse student bodies. I’d like you to think about these factors and how they might relate to your own educational experiences. What did you experience that corresponds to the information presented in the text? Any parallels? Any differences? B. Adolescent Media Use Pages 419-427 describe adolescents' experiences with electronic media and some of the changes that have taken place recently. Look over your media diary from last module and also reflect on some of your media experiences from earlier during your adolescence. Did your experiences match what's described in the text? Specifically, respond to two questions: 1) Did you engage in any media mulitasking? 2) Consider the "effects" of media described on pages 412-413, and speculate about the effects the content you viewed might have on an adolescent. Recognize that most people claim that media has no effects on them, personally. This is called the third-person effect. We all like to think that we are immune to media effects even though it might affect other people. Try to put that tendency aside and consider the possible effects. C. Movie: Africans in America Watch the movie http://fod.infobase.com/p_ViewVideo.aspx?xtid=33032 Africans in America, and consider specifically how the experiences of these adolescents and their families reflect the material from chapters 12 and 13. Specifically, be sure to review the material on immigration (pages 413-415), ethnic minority adolescents (pages 415-416), prejudice, discrimination, and bias (pages 418-419), acculturative stress (pages 438440), and coping (pages 440-442). This information will help you answer the following questions on this form. If the direct link isn't working for you, go to Gallaudet's library page, then FilmsOnDemand, then search "Africans in America" and the movie should come up D. Resources at Gallaudet Pick one of the problems described in Chapter 13 (e.g. substance use, delinquency, depression, suicide, and eating disorders). Review the section of the text describing the problem, then surf the web and see what resources a Gallaudet student might use if s/he or someone close was struggling with this problem. In the discussion board, describe some of the struggles facing adolescents related to that problem, and share links to resources available here at Gallaudet and in the broader community. (Eat (Depression… I have seen that some students are unhappy with socializing. In general people ignore them because that’s where they came from-hearing world. Its wrong to ignore. We should make sure that everyone feel warmly welcomed and comfortable. The deaf community in Gallaudet is too small. My timeline is http://www.timetoast.com/timelines/1592628 A. School Transitions- Timeline Assignment The text describes the transitions between elementary, middle, and high school (page 342-342), the transition to college (page 346) and the transition to work (page 346). Pick two of these events and create one event for each transition. Label the events based on the transition, for example “7.1- Transition to High School” or “7.2- Transition to College.” Set the date based on when the transitions took place. In your paragraphs, describe your transition. Did your experience match what’s described in the text? Terms and concepts to apply: Top dog, relationships, indepdence and autonomy, stress, diversity, exploration, training A. Intrinsic & Extrinsic- Timeline Assignment The text describes intrinsic and extrinsic motivation (371-372). Think about a time when you experienced intrinsic motivation in school. Label the “7.3- Intrinsic Motivation” Set the date based on when the experience took place. In your paragraphs, describe your experience. Where did the motivation come from? What did it look like? How did your motivation affect your achievement? Did your experience match what’s described in the text? Terms and concepts to apply: Self-determination, choice, flow, cognitive engagement, self-responsibility. A. Rites of Passage- Timeline Assignment Pages 406-407 of your text describes rites of passage as they function in the US and around the world. Think about your own adolescence and pick one rite of passage that you experienced. Label the event “8.1- rite of passage.” Set the date based on when the rite of passage took place. In your paragraphs, describe your experience. Why would you consider this as a rite of passage? Did your experience match the material in the text? Terms and concepts to apply: Responsibilities, ceremony/ritual, coming-of-age, tradition, adulthood In a 6-8 page paper, you will introduce your topic(its about Deaf children's brain development. Please research on positive information about Deaf, not loss hearing) make recommendations, and support those recommendations with your scholarly research and information from the textbook and class activities. This paper should not simply repeat the information you already presented in your video. Instead, use the paper as a starting point to demonstrate your understanding of concepts, terms, and research findings from class. Cite your sources using APA style. Also, make sure to specifically consider diversity and adolescent development. How might the issues you are presenting be shaped by culture, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, etc. The emphasis of this paper should be on accurately and creatively applying course material. Make sure you don’t spend too much time providing details about possible solutions or strategies, or you won’t have enough room to focus on course material. The paper is worth 40 points.
