Assessment Instructions

Preparation

The focus of this assessment is on learning theories. Consider an experience you had when you learned something new. For instance, buying a new smartphone, updating the operating system on your computer, attending a seminar, or driving a car with a manual transmission for the first time are all examples of learning.

In preparation for this assessment, use the Capella Library to research three different types of theories of learning—for example, behaviorist theories, cognitivist theories, constructivist theories, or motivational theories. Think about how each can contribute to your understanding of how you were able to learn, or your understanding of the challenges you faced during the learning process.

Directions

For this assessment, complete the following:

  1. Describe the learning experience that you are focusing on. Make sure to elaborate on the learning goal(s) and any associated changes in behavior. Compare the behavior patterns before the learning event and what differences in thought, feeling, or behavior occurred after the learning.
  2. Briefly summarize three different learning theories. Cite scholarly articles to support your summaries.
  3. Explain how these learning theories can or cannot explain the progress that you made regarding your learning experience.
  4. Describe what insights you have gained from the theories that you can use to improve your learning process the next time you are faced with the challenge of learning something new.
  5. Consider the following scenario: Sam has just joined a basketball team and is new to the sport. He understands the rules but needs to learn the skills involved in the game. Using the theories you researched, develop two or three different strategies to teach Sam the skills of the game.

Strive to be as concise as possible and limit the length of your completed assessment to 5–6 pages of content, in addition to the title page and references page. Support your statements and analyses with references and citations from at least three resources.

Additional Requirements
  • Include a title page and a reference page.
  • Use at least three resources.
  • Follow APA format.
  • Note: You may use the APA Paper Template linked in the Resources. This resource is not required.
  • Use 12-point, Times New Roman font.

Refer to the Course Project Overview in the left navigation area. Per the Course Project

Refer to the Course Project Overview in the left navigation area. Per the Course Project, you have selected a mental disorder to work on for your course project.  As part of your course project, you will conduct field research on the practice related to your selected disorder. In your field research, you will interview a mental health professional to learn about the practice related to diagnosing and treating the disorder. In this assignment, you will prepare for the interview.

  • Provide a brief introductory paragraph identifying and discussing the DSM disorder you have selected (furnish appropriate APA citations and References).
  • Write ten interview questions that will bring out the information you need.
  • Formulate questions that ensure an appropriate understanding of the disorder. These questions should assist in differentiating the chosen disorder from those found within and outside its parent category.

Tips for approaching your future Interview with a Mental Health Professional
Ideally, you will select a mental health professional in your local area whom you can interview in person. However, if this is not possible, you may choose to select a mental health professional who is located in another city or state. Some students who live in remote areas may choose to contact state or national mental health-related organizations to find potential interviewees. Such organizations include:

In that case, you would conduct a phone interview.
Ensure that the person you interview has a background in the disorder you are studying.

Im sending you the “child within paper” where you can find what it is needed

Im sending you the “child within paper” where you can find what it is needed.

Also im sending you the same attachement file from last homework. Professor in one of her comment she said that i can use the same topic becuase it was something that i went through in my past so it will be perfect for the paper. Some of my experiences is in that paper and feel free to add more things that you can think of.

key point to remember:

triangle advocacy which consist of 3 points : subject: person who needs help

advocate: who advocate for the subject

target: person/group of people who will make changes

case advocacy: when advocate for one child

class advocay: when advocate for  a group of children

Protective perspective: when the parent or annyone know what is best for the children. make choices for them.

self determination: when the child know what is best for themselves. they make their own choices or advocate for themselves.
