Stratification and Prejudice in Current Events

LASA 2: Stratification and Prejudice in Current Events The purpose of this assignment is to explore stratification and prejudice in current events. Despite great advances towards equality between the races and genders, racial and gender discrimination, as well as class stratification remain serious social problems. To conclude this course, you will use the news media to discover current social issues with regards to race and gender.

To complete this assignment, perform the following tasks: ◦Using newspapers, news websites, or news magazines, select three current events (within the last six months) that reflect our studies on stratification. One event should represent racial issues, one gender issues, and one class issues. All three should demonstrate discrimination and/or stratification in American society. ◦Using your research, describe the current events and how they are reflective of your studies on racial, gender, and class discrimination and/or stratification. ◦Analyze the events and apply the lecture and text to the news articles. What theories of stratification apply? Are the current events representative of the historical trends of racial, gender, and class discrimination and or/stratification? What solutions, if any, should be applied to these current events?

◦In your discussion, apply your personal experiences and observations to the current events.

◦How do you feel that the media perpetuates discrimination and/or stratification based on race, gender, and class? Support your ideas with concepts from the text and/or appropriate outside resources.

Provide a minimum of three references and apply the correct APA standards in the format of text, citations, and references. Your paper should include a title page and reference. Your paper should be at least five pages in length, not including the title and reference pages.

Cognitive Development in Animals

Cognitive Development in Animals Washoe is one of the most famous chimpanzees because of her ability to use sign language to communicate. She was able to communicate approximately 350 words and was even observed teaching her son sign language. Even more impressive was that Washoe was able to combine these words into hundreds of logical combinations with different meanings that were not taught, but rather created by herself. You can learn more about human cognitive development by considering Washoes use of sign language, as well as the information gained from the study of other animals such as chimps, rats, etc. Respond to the following: Specifically, what can we learn about human cognitive development through the study of these animals? are there any ethical issues that arise from using animals to study human development? Consider what you have learned about the inherent differences between animals and humans. Why do researchers make use of animals instead of humans for their experiments on development? Write your initial response in 2- 3 paragraphs. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.
