Rich Learning Environments

A valuable means for parents to become involved in their child’s education is to provide a rich home-learning environment supporting academic achievement. Increasingly, students navigate among multiple domiciles, with varying levels of academic support. Moreover, research consistently shows the negative impact of absentee fathers on children.

Use the below prompts to guide an original post and responses to at least two classmates.

  • How do/can you, reach out to parents and help them create rich home-learning environments, while minimizing the action of parents doing work on a student’s behalf?
  • How do/can you include parents of the non-custodial home to support student academics and/or behavior (e.g., manage school-to-family connections for children dwelling among multiple households)?
  • Attach your module 4 presentation file or link to your initial prompt response. Request feedback from peers; you may provide a brief one-sentence overview of the presentation.

THEME : The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) Convention is an unusual international agreement in that it seeks to coordinate disparate legal and ethical systems in order to arrive at a minimum standard with respect to an important form of white collar crime. It obliges signatory countries, which now include all 30 OECD member countries plus a growing number of non-members, to make the bribery, corruption, extortion, and/or insiders trading of a foreign public official a crime under their laws. Why is this such a difficult policy to implement?

Alignment and Social Change Discussion

Alignment and Social Change Discussion

In the context of research, alignment and social change will be important topics to return to as you prepare for the next courses in the research sequence and continue your development as a scholar-practitioner.

Consider, for example, what criteria are used in your discipline to evaluate alignment of research components. And in what way will your future research contribute to your identity as scholar-practitioner who is dedicated to positive social change?

For this Discussion, you will consider criteria for evaluating alignment among the various components of a research study. You will also reflect on your role as a positive social change agent through research.

With these thoughts in mind:

Post an explanation of the criteria you could use to evaluate alignment between data collection methods and other research components, such as the problem, purpose, research questions, and design. Then, reflecting on the course content, discuss the extent to which your newly acquired research knowledge and skills can support your role as an agent of positive social change. Be specific and provide an example(s).

Be sure to support your Main Issue Post and Response Post with reference to the week’s Learning Resources and other scholarly evidence in APA Style.

Requirements: one page
