Urie Bronfenbrenner would label this an event in our Chronosystem, one level of his Ecological Systems Theory that represents events occurring over time and their effects on the other 4 levels of the ecosystem. These events include births, marriages, moves, deaths, job loss, weather events, and illness.

The closing of a rural hospital, cutting funds to schools, changing bus routes in a city are among the other changes in a community that affect children and families.

First, look through the summaries that some of the other students wrote about the talks. Identify at least three ethical issues from different videos or the research they discuss.

curriculum unit

Good Day,

Attached is the curriculum unit that you previously completed. The curriculum unit only has five lessons. Can you create 4 more lessons because I have to have a
minimum of 5 lessons for the curriculum unit?

In this module, you will FINALIZE the work of designing Part II of your interdisciplinary  Curriculum Unit. You will focus on the design of both formative and summative assessments to measure mastery of the unit concepts.

As a reminder, the Learning Experiences (lessons) should include strategies to meet an identified need and improve student performance at your assigned school or district site. They should reflect your understanding of the educational needs of a diverse student population. The Learning Experiences should include opportunities to integrate technology with instruction and provide activities that promote critical thinking skills.
