Using PowerPoint or Google Slides, you are to create a presentation appropriate for use with other educators or parents. In this presentation you are to do the following:
Identify each student and the issue he or she is facing. You must use the four student profiles provided below. Please DO NOT copy and paste the descriiptions provided. Rather, you should explain what you feel are the core issues each face after reading the descriiption.
Identify the developmental impact of each issue. How is the issue impacting the student in the classroom? What does the teacher see that is interfering with learning? You will need to include the research that is directly related to the issues and aligned to the developmental goals for the students. For example, you might include a statement such as “According to Dr. I. M. Expert, cyber-bullying is detrimental to a student’s development because it makes students feel unsafe.”
Research and provide resources that are directly related to the issue and are aligned to the developmental goals for students. These are resources a parent or teacher could use to learn more about the issue and how to address the impact of the issue. These are resources that may be available in your community, such as food banks, language lessons for parents, etc. You may also choose to include resources that are available from federal, state, and local governments. Include links and a brief descriiption of each resource. These are not the resources you use to understand the developmental impact of the issues, but should be helpful for the intended audience of your presentation.
You will suggest supports teachers can use in the classroom to mitigate the impacts of the issue.
Your presentation should be at least 11 slides long. You are expected to have an introductory slide, two slides per student,a closing slide, and a resource/bibliography page for the sources you use in the project.
The presentation must be your original work, and professional in its use of images, language, and formatting. Use of another’s work will earn an automatic zero and may be grounds for dismissal from the program.
Example:
In order to make our expectations clear, we have created an additional student profile and use his information to complete two slides that meet the criteria of the project. You will not use this student in your project. His profile is for the purpose of the example only. Read it and then look at the 700.2PBP Example Slides. Note that your project will include all 4 students in the Knowledge of Students and Student Needs document and will be at least 11 slides long.

THREE PARAGRAPHS for each question – Intro,body, conclusion

1. Discuss one of your favorite Presocratic philosophers from class. Explain who they are and their theory.
2. Explain Anaximander’s 7-step argument for the Boundless. What is the Boundless? Why is the Boundless so important – at least – according to Anaximander.
I will provide the reading to be used as the source.

Here is the prompt
You have encountered various theories of knowledge and theories of being in this course, beginning with Plato/Socrates (as well as pre-Socratics like Parmenides), Descartes and the rationalists, empiricism, and Kantian constructivism. The phenomenological method as described in Week 7 can also give us tools for a theory of knowledge. Use one or more theories from epistemology and/or metaphysics to discuss what kinds of things you can know and how you can claim to know what you know.
Define and describe the theory or theories that you use to make your claim.
Say something about the range of possible knowledge that you can legitimately claim as knowledge. That is, does it include only knowledge of what can be sensed and whatever is physical? Or can we know abstract objects like universals? Can we have knowledge of more spiritual or esoteric realities, like the soul, God, religious doctrines, etc.?
Explain the reasons that support your viewpoint by providing arguments that are in dialogue with relevant thinkers discussed in our course.
