In Chapter 13 we read how Christianity rose from persecution to predominance. Other than the crucial factors of sincere belief in God and Christ, there are four reasons given for Christianity’s final victory over competing faiths, and fearsome persecution. Discuss these and consider which one of them you feel had the most impact upon Roman culture. After you have discussed these reasons; now address how today’s Christians could impact Western culture to draw others to Christ.

Post-First: This course utilizes the Post-First feature in all Discussions. This means you will only be able to read and interact with your classmates’ threads after you have submitted your thread in response to the provided prompt.   
DISCUSSION ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS The Discussion thread must be 275–350 words and must demonstrate course-related knowledge as you address the question you are given. It also needs to include the word count in parentheses. You do not need to do extensive research or broad reading to complete this assignment, although it may require a small amount of exploration. Use your own words as much as possible, but if you include sources, you must cite your sources in current APA format. Also, I would suggest that you look over the Rubric before you submit your assignment. In addition to the Discussion thread, you are required to reply to the threads of at least 2. Each reply must be 125–150 words and include the word count in parentheses. In forming your 2 replies, make a real contribution to the conversation. Rather than just saying, “I agree” or “Good job,” and be careful to provide support for your replies as needed. I would suggest that you look over the Rubric before you submit your assignment.

Imagine you are a teacher working in a diverse school setting with a large English language learner (ELL) population. You recognize that not all ELL families are the same and understanding each child and family context is essential to ensuring a successful school partnership with the families.
After reviewing the “ECE-562 Case Studies,” discuss how to partner with each ELL family to address the individual learner needs in 750-1,000 words.
As an introduction, provide a description of what you need to know, understand, and value as an early childhood educator about the diverse characteristics of ELL families.
Description of how the language, culture, and family background of Mohammad, Maria, and Patrick influence the normative sequences of their early development and learning.  
Explanation of how using multiple perspectives relevant to Mohammad, Maria, and Patrick’s personal, family, and community experiences and cultural diversity will promote their learning outcomes.  
At least four strategies for collaborating with the families to develop trusting, respectful, affirming, and culturally responsive partnerships that demonstrate positive and supportive relationships. Include at least one strategy for effective communication with the families.  
A minimum of two community resources for each child, to support their learning and development and their families. Include how you would build partnerships between early learning settings, schools, and community organizations and agencies.  
As a conclusion, identify the ethical decisions you would need to consider for your ELL students. Discuss how you would promote the common good for the students, their families, and any colleagues working with the students when making decisions. Include how your ethical decisions are consistent with the Christian worldview.
Support with 3-5 scholarly resources.

OVERVIEW:
As a teacher of the deaf, it is quite likely you will have peers that will not have a background in what it means to be D/deaf, nor an understanding of the policies and trends affecting K-12 students who are deaf/hard of hearing. As the classroom teacher or the campus expert, you may be called upon to train the paraprofessional or new adult working with your deaf/hard of hearing students. This project requires that you create a digital resource for such an individual that includes elements of history, policies and trends that would be needed for the person to have a well-rounded understanding of what it means to be D/deaf or hard of hearing. 
 
INSTRUCTIONS:
You are to create a digital resource (electronic, non-paper-based) that you can use with a new paraprofessional or adult working with students who are deaf/hard of hearing. The resource may be web-based or a stand-alone presentation. Whichever format is selected, the resource must have a variety of multimedia resources to support it. Such resources include links to videos, resources, websites, etc. If you are able to find ways to seemlessly integrate work product that you have created this semester into your resource, you may do so. 
The resource must be written on a level that someone without a background in deaf education would be able to understand. Do not assume the individual has any fundamental knowledge of the topic but has a strong desire to work with kids who are deaf/hard of hearing.
