I would like you to read the first article, the Texas Tribune excerpts from late 2018, and  legislative link. Then respond accordingly.

But before you do, make sure you look at the other articles first — they’re not long. There  are lots of frequently asked questions and legal/factual answers. Use these to hep you formulate your answers but do not copy their responses. Also look at the map included – it shows the nation’s position on recognizing sexual and gender identity overall. It should raise questions in your own mind.

Think about the topics of gender development and sexuality as your book describes – but then think about the concept of gender identity development and apply some of those ideas here.

BEFORE you answer the following questions I want you to remember that being transgender is not a new phenomenon, you probably didn’t even pay attention to it before it became so “newsworthy”and consider how Europe and other nations manage some of these social factors.

  1. How does this first article relate to gender identity development?
  2. Do you think this is a controversial issue or does media hype things up? (unnecessarily ( or necessary). Please explain and support and or refute your claims with information outside of what I have supplied.

 

I don’t care what you think personally — just make sure you argue/discuss this  professionally as this is something you will probably come across in your careers. You may need to step outside your comfort zone to think this through.

Develop a research question on any of these topics only pick one of these. they are  1.attention, 2.learning, 3.memory, 4.language, or 5.decision making),

Revisit the Module One Areas of Interest and Practical Applications in Cognitive Psychology discussion topic, where you examined your interests, potential problems, and applied settings related to cognitive psychology. Building on those conversations, draft a topic suggestion by identifying your particular area of interest in cognitive psychology (attention, learning, memory, language, or decision making), select an applied setting (education, law, mental health, or technology), and describe the contemporary problem as it relates to your topic and setting. Last, draft three potential research questions that explore potential improvements related to your topic and the applied setting.

For example, if you suggested the topic of attention and online students, the applied setting would be education, and you might develop the following research questions:

  • How does multitasking while studying (e.g., listening to music while reading, or texting while reading) influence attention to course material?
  • How do individuals with ADHD perform in an online learning environment, and what strategies can help them succeed?
  • What strategies can teachers and students use to increase attention to relevant material in an online course?

The instructor will provide feedback on your topic submission and make recommendations as to which research question is most feasible to pursue, given the parameters of the final project.

Reflect on what you have learned this  week to help you respond to the question below. This assignment is part three  of a five-part paper you will create throughout this course.
