Case Study Paper 1
The case study topic was social and emotional interactions. The child I observed was named Lacey. She started out on her first day of preschool very energetic. She seemed to enjoy the toys and did not appear to be frightened of her new surroundings. As i noted in my observation “she really didnt need any help to gain self confidence.”(observation question 5) She parted from her mother very easily barely acknowledging she was leaving due to her involvement with all the new toys. She was very outgoing and talked to many teachers and even some other children. She seemed to really adapt to the room very well. She primarily plays with Keely and Grace. “Keely is the one she wants to sit/play with often.” She loves to play dress up and dance in the longer dresses. She also likes to play with the dolls. When Keely and Grace come in the room she occasionally even brings them a doll to the door to get a start on playing with the dolls as soon as possible. She often initiates the play with the other girls. One thing she really enjoyed was building a long line of building blocks and walking along them like a tightrope. She did this many times and other Kids joined in as well. She seems to be very aware of the other children and how they feel. An example of this is when one of the girls was sitting by herself she went over and sat down and asked her to play. She often plays domestic games such as house, baby dolls, or the doll house. These are her go to games but she does also participate in things like blocks, or trains.
I believe that Lacey is a very typical 4 year old girl. She appears to have a good home life because when playing house or the doll house she was very respectful of the other dolls and the mom...

...ple would realize they weren’t telling the truth if they often don’t tell the truth. Many people may see this as her being bratty and a lier but I believe that she does it because she wants to be notice. Though this isn’t the best way to do it she knows it works which is why she continues. She does have some negative behavior which I believe she will grow out of she does also have behaviors normal and positive for a child her age. An example of this she often makes up stories which according to Erickson this is a normal and positive behavior. An example of this is when she does the craft she “often takes the craft and adds her own touch, even making up back stories for her projects” along with toys as noted in my observation. Over all she seems to be developing at a normal rate with only slight behavioral issues which will most likely work themselves out over time.
When horrific crimes occur in large cities, many of them can be chalked up to gang violence or to the larger population of that specific city. But when horrific crimes happen in small cities like Lincoln, Nebraska, people begin to ask questions like who did this and why. In 1958, a nineteen year old man named Charles Starkweather put the entire state of Nebraska and possibly the entire nation in a state of terror. With his murder spree taking only three days, Starkweather had collected a body count of ten bodies, including two teenagers and a young child. Understanding Starkweather’s past and state of mind begins to answer the second question of why.
This understanding that a child 's behavior is a part of their social development is crucial
The Metropolitan Council on Jewish Poverty (Met Council) terminated Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer William Rapfogel in August of 2013 after the Board of Directors became aware of specific information regarding financial irregularities and apparent misconduct in connection with the organization’s insurance policies. As one of New York City’s largest human services agencies, providing over 100,000 New Yorkers each year with assistance in their fight against poverty, the Met Council took this information seriously. In order to ensure the Met Council’s operations are conducted with integrity and that their commitment to uphold high values is continued, the respected leader for over forty years promptly retained outside counsel to perform a full investigation into the matter (Metropolitan Council on Jewish, 2013).
The ethical discernment model described by Slosar (2004) and developed for use at Ascension Health will assist us as we analyze this case. It reminds us that discernment engages our spirituality, intellect, imagination, intuition, and beliefs. It is decision-making that reaches into the heart of our beliefs about God, creation, others, and ourselves. It therefore requires structured time for reflection and prayer from the beginning and throughout the process.
The environment in which an infant is raise, has to do a lot with his/her development. I was surprise by this observation because there were different personalities. Loui was the child who interact more with the students in the classroom. Also, he was surprise of the things that he was able to do by using his gross motor skills. Charlotte imitate the behavior with the toys that were in the classroom. On the other hand, Benjamin was insecure child that needed to be near his mom/dad. I learned many things from this activity. I was able to understand the concepts because I related to the observation. This will help me in my future
Nearly every aspect of law enforcement has a court decision that governs criteria. Most court rulings are the result of civil lawsuit towards a police officer and agency. However, currently, there is no law that mandates law enforcement driver training. When it comes to firearms, negligence by officers has resulted in a multitude of court rulings. Popow v. City of Margate, 1979, is a particularly interesting case that outlines failed firearms training by an agency. In this case, an officer chasing a suspect during a foot pursuit fired at the suspect, striking and killing an innocent bystander (Justia.com, 2017). The court ruled that the agency was “grossly negligent” of “failure to train” (Justia.com, 2017). As a result, nearly every agency requires annual firearms training and has written policy concerning the same. Officers must show proficiency in firearms use every year to maintain their certification. Many states even impose fines on officers for
There are few fields within the child development science. One of them is represented by the psychoanalytical theory, which looks at the child emotional development within the context of social interaction and early attachments. This framework is called psychosocial as it looks on the emotional and social aspects. Running in parallel and influencing each other there are two more main areas, cognitive and physical. Although I am focusing on the aspects of the psychosocial development, it is important to remember that all these areas are being affected one by the other, where the development of the emotional skills plays central role in a regular development of cognitive and physical skills.
Child observation is relevant in social work because social workers deal with problematic situations, in which students have the opportunity to observe and reflect the characteristics of a child’s development in terms of physical and mental change. Observation has an important role in children’s play it shows the development progress as well as the child’s thinking about events.
In today’s society, it is not difficult to fathom why an organization may place trademarks upon their designs or expressions. Such safety measures allow a company to ensure that others do not replicate their personality profile for commercial purposes, sanctioning for the delineation between organizations (Wensley and Caraway, 2014). A trial between Salam Toronto Publications v. Salam Toronto Inc. exemplified the lack of discrepancy between two companies and was investigated to detect trademark infringement. This lawsuit took place in Toronto, Ontario on Sept. 29, 2008, and lasted until Jan. 9th, 2009 (Salam Toronto Publications v. Salam Toronto Inc., 2009). The plaintiff, Salam Toronto Publications, administered by Mohsen Seyed Taghavi, was an Urdu/Farsi newspaper that had been operating since October 2000, printing issues pertaining to the Iranian population (Salam Toronto Publications v. Salam Toronto Inc., 2009). Mr. Taghavi indicated to the Court of Law that Salam Toronto Publications was registered on January 5th 2001 and "Salam Toronto” was trademarked, sanctioning for prima facie evidence of ownership (Salam Toronto Publications v. Salam Toronto Inc., 2009)(Wensley and Caraway, 2014). The plaintiff issued a trademark infringement following the depreciation of goodwill and breach of sections 7(b), 19, 20, and 22 of Canada's Trademark Act, and passing off (Salam Toronto Publications v. Salam Toronto Inc., 2009). The utmost deliberated section of the Trademark Act was section 20, which detailed that a trademark was violated only if it was used in “association with a confusing trade name” (Salam Toronto Publications v. Salam Toronto Inc., 2009). It was reported within the litigation that the defendant, Salam Toronto Immigratio...

For 12 weeks I observed a young pre-schooler Child C aged 31/2 years old, through my account I would give an observer’s view of Child C, three theories peculiar to Child C and my the emotions evoked in me as an observer. My observation assisted in my understanding of the changes in Child C as the week progressed over the 12 weeks.

This case study is intended to analyze the movie When a Man Loves a Woman, and to provide worst and best case scenarios for treatment. This film depicts a family that is struggling with a family member’s alcoholic dependency. The mother, Alice Green, is a school counselor who has an addiction to alcohol that is causing her to experience problems in her life as a result of her use. Her husband, Michael Green, is an airline pilot that is very protective Alice and often steps in and takes over for Alice, even in her role as a mother. Alice has two children, Jess and Casey, which also bear witness to their mother’s deterioration from alcohol addiction.
It discusses how children are born with that needs to connect with individuals around them. Teachers and providers create positive relationship with children from birth through the early years. The foundation for that healthy social and emotional development because it affects her children see the world, express themselves, manages their emotions, in establishing a positive relationship with others. There were several areas of development that included social interactions that focus on the relationship that we share and include relationship with adults and peers. Emotional awareness recognized and understands your feelings and actions of other people, and self-regulation where you have that ability to express your thoughts, feelings, and behavior in a socially appropriate way. There were many tips that were listed when working with infants from talking and reading, having that warm, responsive, and consistent care, maintaining predictable routines, and getting to know each child while following their lead. The importance of supporting children and developing social skills is critical for learning, happiness, and long-term. This development begins during infancy and can be supported through simple social games, emotional role model, and imitating an infant's facial expression and sounds. The importance of social-emotional development and toddlers makes an impact in a child life when these skills are developed starting in infancy. Encouraging positive behaviors and using positive discipline practices that helped to develop the ability to make good choices as well as recognizing the confidence that is built when these behaviors are repeated. This is a process for young children to learn these behaviors always remembering that a patient response will help especially when the behaviors are
The child that I selected to observe through the course of this semester is a Caucasian female. Her name is “R.” She was born on April 24, 2013. She is currently 10 months old, but will be turning one year old at the end of the semester. “R” is a child who is very active. She has an independent but outgoing personality. At this stage, she exhibits uncertainty with strangers and other people she recalls but has not physically seen in a period of time. Some of “R”'s favorite activities include tossing objects, mirroring actions and movements, music, a...
