Directions: The  final assignment is your chance to demonstrate how you will use data to  drive your instruction. First, find a video on YouTube or another  platform that allows you to observe a child. Next, use any observation  technique that you choose to collect data on the child. Write a synopsis  with information from your observation. Finally, create a  classroom-type of activity that addresses the unique needs of the  student you observed. Think about an introduction activity, an  individual and/or small group experience, and a closing wrap up. Use  research to back up your ideas.

Synopsis-Include  a link to the video you used for this project. Give details about what  you observed and be specific with regard to the three domains we learned  about. Use references throughout this section. Include the tool you  used to collect data (checklist, anecdotal record, etc.). Write about  the activity plan you will design to meet the needs of the student. Give  concrete details. This section should be at least three paragraphs  long.

Activity Plan-Include  the objective or goal of your activity. Give step-by-step details for  each aspect (opening activity, group experiences, closure/wrap up). 

Conclusion-Include  a conclusion section that allows you to reflect on the entire project.  What did you learn? What would you change? Make connections between the  course content and your final project. This section should be at least  one to three paragraphs long.

References-Include a reference page using APA style. 

Assignment is incomplete without the self reflection

Objective:

To create a PowerPoint presentation  that outlines a marketing plan and public relations campaign for a child  care center and to evaluate your PowerPoint presentation.

Scenario:

You are the new director of a child  care center that has had some marketing and public relations issues in  the past. In the interest of making a fresh start, the board of  directors has asked you to evaluate the strengths of the center and  create a marketing plan. You will need to be prepared to present your  marketing plan at the first board meeting of the year. A week later, a  board member contacts you about the importance of getting the word out.  She asks you to include your plans for a public relations campaign for  the center as part of your presentation. As you think through your  public relations campaign, you realize that the board is not sure how to  leverage the power of social media. You jot down several social media  strategies to help promote the strengths of the center.

For this assignment, please review a sample ALTA homeowner’s policy of title insurance located at this website: 

ALTA Homeowner’s Policy

After reviewing the sample policy, please answer the following questions in the text box below:

1. During a real estate closing for a residential purchase of a brand new single family home, you took out a mortgage in order to purchase the home and were required by your lender to obtain a Lender’s Policy of Title Insurance.  A copy of the policy is located at the above link. After purchasing the home you found out that there are some mechanic’s liens on the property relating to a fence that a sub-contractor installed but was never paid for by the original builder/contractor. This was not found during the title history report prepared by the closing company. Will your title insurance defend against this claim and help you quiet your title, should you need legal assistance in removing this encumbrance? Explain in detail why or why not, and don’t forget to note the section on the Title Policy that supports your answer. 
2. Before you purchased the property at the open house, a man was standing in the public road telling everyone that he owned half of the property. He smelled of liquor and was clearly intoxicated. Both you and other potential buyers ignored the man as you walked by, as you had just met the purported owner of the house, a woman, inside. At the time of closing, no mention of this mystery man ever arose on any documentation from the title company, so you were relieved and simply believed him to simply be of unsound mind and never mentioned it to anyone. A few months after living in the home you were served with a Complaint. That intoxicated man you had met months earlier was now suing you for his right to half of the house. He claims that he had inherited half of the house with his sister, but she had not properly recorded the deed. Will your title insurance policy defend against this claim on your behalf? Why or why not? Please be sure to note any sections of the policy upon which you rely. Don’t forget to address any covered claims, as well as exclusions that may or may not apply depending on your legal argument!
