1. When people think about a country’s culture, they often view it through a lens of broad generalizations, perhaps even stereotypes. Why do you think this is the case? Why might cultural stereotypes be problematic in today’s globalized world?
2. Be sure to respond to at least one of your classmates’ posts.
CLASSMATES POST: TANYA
A few things that come to mind when addressing why country cultures are often viewed through a lens of broad generalizations are…
For the most part I feel as though many “people” live a sheltered life. Anything people are not familiar with or don’t want to be familiar with you often hear, “Each to their own”
People create stereotypes because they have limited exposure to the world (as far as traveling and seeing things first-hand)
People make assumptions because they reply on too much media for information.
And fourthly, I believe it can be mental issue because ones brain will make an assumption quickly which can lead to oversimplification and generalization.(A brain will naturally look for differences, and what one is familiar with or not) According to NCBI, this can lead to the oversimplification of a country’s culture, because people in general will focus on commonalities and overlook the diversity and individuality that exists within a culture (1).
Why cultural stereotypes can be problematic in today’s globalized world…
Lack of understanding. Cultural differences, poverty, etc., there is clearly not enough empathy given for those that cannot fit into a “perfect mold “ leaving one feeling like they don’t belong which can have negative effects on their wellbeing. Stereotypes can be problematic in today’s world because it can lead to discrimination, racism, and misunderstandings within certain groups of people. Furthermore, NCBI states, by having cultural stereotypes it can limit creativity (1). “Cultural stereotypes reduce innovation to set characteristics, making it difficult to see beyond the different stereotypes and recognize the potential for creativity and innovation. This can limit the development of new ideas and solutions, which can have negative effects on social and economic development” (NCBI, 1).

Post a brief policy statement that explains how administrators can promote equity and make equal opportunity possible using the case study examples from Cooper’s text, regarding the competition between two vendors (Chapters 6 and 7). Identify the main stakeholders. Focus upon policies and procedures that identify and attempt to resolve social inequality. Justify your proposals. Support your postings and responses with specific references to the resources.

Summarize the article you selected.
Evaluate the quality of evidence, appropriateness of the content, and writing style for the target audience, and the author’s potential bias, if any.
Explain whether the article meets professional standards for scholarly writing and why.
Explain how different audiences (e.g., domestic vs. international perspectives) could interpret the article differently and why.

Prepare a memo to the appropriate policy making body that
identifies a defined public sector problem,
at least two potential policy options that address the problem, and
at least two areas in which additional research will be conducted to address the public sector problem.
This should be an agenda item to the appropriate policy-making body (i.e., audience). Depending on the scope of the problem you identified, this could be to the federal, state, or local (county, city council, etc.) government.
The tone and form of the memo should reflect the audience, and your writing should be clear and concise — the policy makers should be able to discern the purpose early in the memo. The defined problem might also best be addressed by a government agency that regulates or is authorized to enact policy.
In the memo, be sure, at a minimum, to:
Identify and define the problem and the conditions that exist to demonstrate the importance of the problem and why it deserves the attention of policy makers.
Identify and apply (the concepts or ideas and how they would be executed or implemented) at least two policy options to address the problem.
Explain at least two areas in which additional research will be conducted in furtherance of addressing the public sector problem.
In addition to fulfilling the specifics of the assignment, a successful paper must also meet the following criteria:
Length should be 3–5 double-spaced pages, excluding title page and reference page.
Use a memo header segment.
Utilize six or more sources, using both primary and secondary sources and evaluating the credibility of these sources.

Using the case attached and at least two outside sources:
Briefly describe the facts of the case leading up to Bennett being terminated.
While supporting facts are necessary for the story to flow, you should concentrate your efforts on the facts that are most important related to whether Bennett was retaliated against for protected First Amendment speech.
Using this case and at least two outside sources, thoroughly explain the balance between the public employee’s freedom of speech and the public employer’s right to require limits to that speech.
Explain what this case tells us about the public employee’s rights related to free speech.
Finally, this case mentions the due process rights HCC afforded Bennett. Using our readings, explain why public employees like Bennett are afforded due process, where that requirement comes from, and what is generally considered adequate due process.
Teachers feedback:
Not sure you followed the directions for this assignment. Take another look at the assignment and the 4 major points you needed to cover below, you didn’t really cover any of this.
Would also still need atleast 2 sources. I can re submit the ones from the prior writer or if you need new ones and look yourself. Either or let me know if you need anything else. Thank you

To complete your task (or, Paper #3: Community Intervention Proposal), you will take things step by step in order to put forth the strongest possible proposal that meets the expected criteria (more specifics on that later). The following is a brief overview of the steps you should take (more specifics on your step-by-step process included on subsequent pages within this Paper 3 module).
Step 1: Identify the needs of your com­munity.
Step 2: Choose programs (and ensure they can be implemented within budget).
Step 3: Prepare your proposal for the City Council (or, instructor) to review.
Step 4: Submit your proposal/report for review (grade).
Note: Once you have your ideas laid out and a draft of your proposal, you are invited to submit your draft (Paper #3: Community Intervention Proposal) for feedback. This step is OPTIONAL (and UNGRADED); but, if you do choose to submit a draft, you are likely to get some valuable feedback from your community (instructor) that will help you further refine and strengthen your final proposal/paper. In order to receive this feedback in a timely manner, plan to submit your draft by the due date indicated.
