Chose a start time and note all the media you consume within a 24 hour period. 

Chose a start time and note all the media you consume within a 24 hour period.  Select an average day for you. Use the hour by hour chart attached below to record all the media you come in contact with (billboards, graffiti, social media, television, online streaming, magazines,  etc.).
At the end of 24 hours, review your chart and think about the following: 
Which one form of media did you use the most? How much time did you use it?
Which one form of media did you use the least (but still use)? How much time did you use it?
How much time was spent communicating with another person over media (phone, messaging, e- mail, etc.)?
How much time was spent using media that was monologic (one-sided, such as TV or radio, streaming media)?
What surprised you about the amount of time you spent engaged in the use of media? Why?
Based on this exercise, will you do anything differently (increase or decrease) in using media? Why? or Why not?
What are the primary messages in the media you consume?  Is there a pattern? 
What are the unexpected or subconscious messages in the media you consume? For example, how often do you find yourself purchasing something that came up as you were scrolling? Or deciding to do something because you saw an ad or a post of someone else doing it? 
Please keep your analysis to 500-700 words.
Turn in your 24 hour chart and your analysis as one pdf file.

Consider your Sidman reading this week. He indicated that often positive rein

 
Consider your Sidman reading this week. He indicated that often positive reinforcement is not used because many consider it to be nothing but bribery. Today, that attitude is growing stronger. Many popular educational sites shun using “rewards” because it causes a “decrease in intrinsic motivation” and that people should not be rewarded for “doing things they are supposed to be doing”. What is your position on this argument? Please defend using scholarly resources and writing, all in behavioral terms. 
(Note: You must include ALL required readings for this week and include 1 outside reference to earn full credit! Also remember you must respond to peer to earn full credit.)

Review the Learning Resources on leadership skills and the role of human resources.
You may wish to revisit People First San Diego’s websiteLinks to an external site.. For this Assignment, focus on the organization’s mission, vision, and diversity and inclusion statement located on the Who We Are tab.
Explore the following scenario. Consider how you would address the situation and consult with the human resources department.
You serve as the Director of Clinical Services within the People First San Diego organization. In team meetings, longtime employee Patrice, a woman in her later 50s, is often belittling and condescending toward Bo, another social worker. Patrice rolls her eyes at Bo’s ideas and mutters under her breath. Further, Patrice often needs to be corrected for using the wrong pronoun to describe Bo (who uses “they” and “them”). You are not sure why this dynamic is occurring, but you suspect it has something to do with Bo being young and identifying as nonbinary.
Patrice may see herself as the “old guard” who needs to establish order and police the team. Bo has not voiced any concern about the situation; however, other members of the team have expressed discomfort to you. When you address the comments individually with Patrice, she explains that she doesn’t realize she has been doing it and implies that you are being too “touchy.” The comments and behavior continue, and you are not sure what to do. You decide to consult with the human resources department.
By Day 7
Submit a 2-page p*****(not including title page and references) in which you:
Explain the role of human resources within an organization and how the department supports managers.
Analyze the personnel situation within the People First San Diego scenario.

What type of conflict is occurring?
To what extent does the situation violate the mission, vision, and/or diversity and inclusion statement of the organization or violate the law?    

Describe how you would address the personnel situation through consultation with human resources.

Anger, Disappointment, Happiness, Disbelief, Eroticism, Boredom, Inviting, Comfo

Anger, Disappointment, Happiness, Disbelief, Eroticism, Boredom, Inviting, Comforting, Contempt and Disgust. If a woman was to display one of the emotions, how would the woman’s display of the emotion (especially in the workplace) be perceived and how does that differ from how a male’s display of the emotion would be perceived? If both language and emotion is how we communicate in our society, and if they both carry distinct meanings, how do we use both to bring about language neutrality?
