    ASSIGNMENT: As you learned in this unit, a Rogerian argument is one that presents two sides of a debate and argues for a solution that will satisfy both sides. Given two articles presenting opposing sides of an issue (mandatory uniforms in schools), construct your own 2-3 page Rogerian argument essay in which you attempt to arrive at a workable solution or “middle ground.”
    In order to foster learning and growth, all essays you submit must be newly written specifically for this course. Any recycled work will be sent back with a 0, and you will be given one attempt to redo the Touchstone.

    In The New York Times parenting blog, Motherlode, Debra Monroe writes about “the dynamic that makes public school democratic—a place to confront the humanity of others,” because she is concerned with what schooling teaches children about diversity and difference.1 This paper begins with a similar assumption and concern; I too think schools ought to be places where children learn to confront the humanity and difference of others, and I am concerned with how children are taught to do so. Through an analysis of school uniform policies and theories of social justice, I argue not that children consciously experience school uniforms as uniforming, but that school uniforms and their foregoing policies assume that confronting strangers—an imperative of living in a democratic polity—is something that requires seeing sameness instead of recognizing difference. Imbuing schooling with a directive that says schools ought to be places where children learn to confront the humanity of others requires that we ask questions about how educational policies teach children to deal with human difference. Broadly speaking, uniform policies undergird the assumption that a child’s capacity to confront difference is unimportant.2 To consider the ways in which school uniform policies unjustly teach children to disregard difference so that they can reasonably participate in public and school life, this paper engages in a rich conversation about social justice. Fundamentally, social justice is about recognizing grave injustices between individual persons and groups of people living in, or being prevented from living in, the world. The works of John Rawls, Iris Marion Young, and Nancy Fraser represent three common theoretical constructs for dealing with social justice. Rawls comes from a social contract position and constructs a floating theory of justice based on a Kantian self that ultimately addresses injustices by way of redistribution.3 Young aligns herself with critical theory, founds her critique in the messiness of the “real world,” and tackles injustice by

    Will antibiotics still be effective a century from now? As new technologies arise, will we be relying on certain antibiotics in the future? Or even any kind of antibiotics? What new technologies may arise in the future and how would they positively or negatively impact society? Would people lose their jobs? Will the constant misuse and overuse of antibiotics increase antibiotic resistance and therefore lead them to becoming less effective in treating us when we are sick?

    Observe an early childhood classroom that includes children with exceptionalities. Seek permission from your mentor teacher to collect data on his or her behalf. Be sure to maintain the confidentiality of the students. Do not use students’ real names in your assignment.
    Ask to review data that your mentor teacher has collected. Decipher the data, and devise instructional interventions for at least one student in your field experience classroom. Discuss your interventions with your mentor teacher. If you do not have access to this data, work with your mentor teacher to create sample data to analyze.
    Additionally, interview the early childhood classroom teacher about the same topics.
    Your interview should address the following questions:
    How do you record data regarding student behaviors?
    How do you multitask when collecting data while giving instruction or while during other responsibilities?
    How long do you collect data on a student? Why?
    In how many settings is data normally collected?
    How long is seen as enough to collect data to make intervention decisions?
    How do formal assessments help in making instructional decisions?
    In any remaining field experience hours, assist the teacher in providing instruction and support to the class.
