Paragraph I. Introduction
1.Describe in general the issue that is to be debated. In no more than 3-5 sentences, give an overview of the social and political situation that Black Americans faced in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Study “Jim Crow and African American Life” from the free ONLINE textbook from Lumen Learning. Use the link HERE.

Paragraph III. A second perspective
3.Read and describe W.E.B. Dubois’s program in the excerpt “The Souls of Black Folk.” Write at least a paragraph on Dubois’s perspective and his proposals. How does Dubois differ from Washington? Reference the document and use direct quotes, but do not allow any quote to extend beyond the third line of text in your paper.
Paragraph IV. Applications and assessment
4.Apply your learning to the present day. In light of the current discussion on race and civil rights in the United States, how did the reading(s) change the way in which you understood the subject? Who has the better solution, if any – Dubois or Washington? Why?
How are the issues presented in the reading(s) still relevant to you today? Please explain how your personal background and life experiences might influence your perspective on this topic?
Paragraph V. Conclusion
5.Wrap it up. In no more than 3-5 sentences, restate your thesis, add any final thoughts, tie up any loose ends, and answer any final questions that your reader may have. You may even choose to ask a thought-provoking question to encourage your reader to do more research.
Addendum: Citations
6.Cite your sources properly. When quoting or referencing your sources (the text, Dubois, or Washington), you need to use the Chicago Manual of Style, the standard method of documentation for history. Chicago Style requires footnoting. To footnote in Microsoft Word, look under the “References” tab, find the “Insert Footnote” button, and click on it. A line will appear at the bottom of your page under which you type your footnote.
Examples of the Chicago Manual of Style:
When citing Washington, this footnote will appear at the bottom of your page:
[1] Booker T. Washington, “Up From Slavery: An Autobiography of Booker T. Washington,” in Louis R. Harlan, ed., The Booker T. Washington Papers, Vol. 3, (Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 1974), 583–587.
If you cite Washington again, your footnote should appear as such:
2 Washington, 583 – 587.
When you cite W.E.B. Dubois, your footnote should appear as such:
[1] W.E.B. Dubois, The Souls of Black Folk: Essays and Sketches, 4th ed. (Chicago: A.C. McClurg & Co., 1904), 300-305.
If you cite Dubois again, your footnote should appear as such:
This week we will be reflecting on current trends and issues within your role.

Please note:
This is a reflection and therefore no references are needed nor expected
Discussion: Structured Approaches: Benefits and Limitations
Structured teaching, including TEACCH, has been used for numerous years in the United States and internationally. While research has been conducted on the efficacy of this intervention strategy, most of the success of the program is largely due to the preparation of those implementing it. As with other interventions, TEACCH and other structured teaching methods have benefits and limitations with which you should be familiar.
In this Discussion, you will analyze TEACCH and other structured approaches to teaching and share them with your Instructor and colleagues.
Review the Learning Resources and consider the benefits and limitations of structured approach interventions, i.e., TEACCH.
Search the internet and/or the Walden library for an additional article related to structured approach interventions, i.e., TEACCH for ASD.
Post an explanation of the benefits and limitations of structured approaches (i.e., TEACCH), and further describe behaviors for which structured approach interventions are most appropriate. Support your explanation with the resources and an article you found in your search.
This learning activity aims for a full understanding and unbiased view of the family—not just its problems, but also its strengths, values, and goals.
Understanding family structure and style is essential to caring for a family in the community setting. Conducting a family interview and needs assessment gathers information to identify strengths, as well as potential barriers to health. This information ultimately helps develop family-centered strategies for support and guidance.
See the Interview Questionnaire in the attached document below.
Upon completion of the interview, write a 850-1,000-word paper.
Analyze your assessment findings and the family’s answers to your questions.
This is a family health assessment .
Select a family, other than your own, and seek permission from the family to conduct an interview. Utilize the interview questions complied in your interview questionnaire to conduct a family-focused functional assessment.
Document the responses as you conduct the interview. Do not put the family’s name, but utilize initials, the gender of each family member, and their age.
Your paper must include the following:
Describe the family structure. Include individuals and any relevant attributes defining the family composition, race/ethnicity, social class, spirituality, and environment.
Summarize the overall health behaviors of the family. Describe the current health of the family.
Discuss three areas in which health problems or barriers to health were identified?
Your assignment must include an eco-map and a genogram – as shown in the required textbook.
