THIS PROJECT IS DUE 2/26. Due in this Module: Write the following statement: “I have obtained my learner for the FBA project and received parent permission (as applicable).”

Students will select a learner for this project and receive parent permission to conduct a functional behavioral assessment (FBA) for one challenging behavior exhibited by the learner.
Complete an intake interview with parent/caregiver and/or teacher using the Functional Assessment Screening Tool (FAST).
Operationalize the challenging behavior to be targeted for assessment, based on the parent interview.
Complete an ABC data sheet for a minimum of 5 separate incidences of the target challenging behavior.
ABC Data Analysis:
Clearly and objectively describe the maintaining contingencies for the target behavior.
Were any MO’s and/or setting events identified?Identify the most common/likely antecedent stimulus.
Identify the most common consequence(s).
Following which consequences did the learner’s behavior stop, continue or escalate?
Based on responses to the above questions, what do you believe is the most likely function of the challenging behavior (hypothesis)?
What is the basis for your hypothesis? Please refer only to the data as collected on your ABC chart; discuss setting events/MOs, antecedents, consequences, and the learner’s response to consequences. Do not base your hypothesis on the behavior.
Describe an FA Procedure
Clearly describe how you would set up a functional analysis (FA) to test your hypothesis (must include details for 4 functional analysis probes).
Describe the environment, including activities and materials to be used.
Describe the antecedent for each probe.
Describe the consequence to be applied following instances of the challenging behavior for each probe.
Detail the data collection procedure to be used for each of the probes and collect hypothetical data to indicate your hypothesis was correct.

Week 4 Discussion Assignment: Thomas Nast Cartoons

This week’s discussion asks you to think and write about the set of cartoons by Thomas Nast available on Globalyceum. You should read the Background and view the cartoons before participating.

Discussion questions:

What view of the Chinese and Chinese immigration is Nast advocating? To what extent are his anti-Irish and anti-Tweed feelings involved?

Your answer or answers to these questions should present details from your examination of the cartoons. While you may mention information from the other Globalyceum material this week, your focus should be on your analysis of the primary sources and what you learned from them. There is no need provide detailed descriptions of the cartoons, since all of the other students will have viewed them as well. Instead, use details from the images as evidence to support your answer to the discussion questions.

1. Format
a. Use Microsoft Word, 12 point font, single spacing.
b. Use the format demonstrated in the sample paper called “Excerpts from A papers ..”
provided under Writing Resources in Blackboard for Assignments 2 through 4. This
format incorporates the use of headers that distinguish the different areas of thought
within the memo. Additionally, for Assignments 1 you may incorporate headers if
necessary to more effectively convey your ideas.
c. Where using headers in Assignments 2 through 4, you must include these:
1. Facts
2. Issue
3. Analysis (note- this is where you may want to use additional headers to further
organize your thoughts)
4. Recommendation
e. The purpose of the guide is to help you understand whether you have thought deeply
enough about the topic. Your grade does not depend on the number of words written.
However, your grade will be affected by whether or not you have fully analyzed the
issue and fully supported your conclusion/decision. If you find that you are
significantly over this range of words, you should edit your paper so that your ideas and
words are conveyed in the most concise manner. This does not mean eliminating key
arguments. It just means editing your wording so that it is more concisely written.
f. Inside your document – DO NOT include any personal information inside your
document (such as name, CougarNet ID, etc). We will not remove this information
before submitting it for assessment.
4. Academic honesty (discussing the papers, cheating, and plagiarism)
All assignments, including this one, are individual assignments. This means that you are prohibited
from discussing any part of the assignment with other people. Your analysis and work must be
original. This means that you must use proper citations (and quotations, where necessary) throughout
your paper and may not submit a paper that you used in a prior class.
We will analyze your papers using www.turnitin.com. This website checks your paper to determine
the similarity of your paper to other students’ papers, internet or book resources, and papers found
commercially on the internet. If your paper is sufficiently similar to another student’s paper or other
resource, you will be reported for violating the academic honesty code. This may result in earning an
F in the class or expulsion from the university.
Citations MUST BE provided for any information used or relied upon that is not your original idea.
There are plagiarism presentations posted on the course website. It is your responsibility to review this
to be sure you fully understand what constitutes plagiarism, how to properly paraphrase and cite, and
when to use quotations. If this information is not sufficient for you to understand how to provide a
proper citation, you may want to visit the following website:
http://www.uh.edu/writecen/Resources/GrammarAndDocumentation.php.
You may use MLA or APA or any other format as long as (1) you clearly identify that the work is
attributable to another source, AND (2) we can easily locate the original source.

1). Integrating Black History Month into Curriculum

Nieto & Bode Chapter 1 Understanding the Sociopolitical Context of Multicultural Education

Nieto & Bode Chapter 9 Adapting Curriculum for Multicultural Classrooms

In Chapter 9, Nieto and Bode discuss curricular adaptation and provide plenty of suggestions for cultural sensitive lesson plans.
Now is your chance to create cultural sensitive lesson plans.
February is the Black History month. Every February, teachers across Texas look for effective ways to integrate Black heritage into class activities.
The addition into the curriculum of “heroes” is one of the most frequently used during the first phase of an ethnic revival movement. As variety of the contribution approach, the heroes and holidays approach uses content limited primarily to special days related to special events. Women’s month and MLK day are examples of this type celebrated in the schools. For instance, during March, when you have a chance to visit a K-12 campus, you will see plenty of posters and banners that display outstanding females. When this approach is used, the class studies little about the special groups before or after the event or occasion.
There are hundreds of ways to integrate the celebration of the Black History Month into your teaching. Go to http://www.google.com/ or your favorite search engine to find out more information about this special event by applying the criterion discussed in Chapter 6. Create an original plan to introduce the Black heritage to your class. You may use other author’s ideas, but do not copy. If you are a current classroom teacher, design the plan to fit your subject and grade level. You may use another lesson plan as a model, but do not copy from the Internet. If your plan is not original, make sure to cite the source. If you are not a current classroom teacher, design the plan as if you were teaching your favorite subject and grade level in your favorite school. Then post your plan, which must be at least 150 words, to the Discussion Board topic “Integrate Black History Month into Curriculum”.
Make sure to start the posting with the subject and grade level you are interested in. For example, if I am teaching 5th grade social studies, my subject line will be “Social Studies in the 5th grade”.
If you are new to lesson plans, I have posted a Lesson Plan template used by all Urban Education professors. This is for you to become familiar with a lesson plan format. However, you do not have to include all template components in the lesson plan you construct for this assignment.
To raise your project score, make assumptions about the audience (students) are you writing this lesson plan for. If you have older students (middle school or high school levels) in mind, try out some innovative and meaningful approaches/angles, rather than common activities, such as asking students to listen to MLK’s speech “I have a dream” that they have listened to many times. There are so many interesting ways for students to understand the meaning of the Black History Month, a very rich topic.

When you construct the lesson plan, consider the seven characteristics (antiracist, basic education, important for all students, pervasive, education for social justice, a process, and critical pedagogy) that define multicultural education, according to Nieto and Bode. Also limit your lesson plan to no more than 2 pages.
