NYU was founded on the belief that a student’s identity should not dictate the ability for them to access higher education. That sense of opportunity for all students, of all backgrounds, remains a part of who we are today and a critical part of what makes us a world class university.

Concrete poetry is a type of poetry in which the words of a poem are given a visual representation in the shape of the poem itself. The visual shapes of the poems are just as important in conveying the intended effect as the poem’s content, such as meaning, words, rhythm, rhyme, etc. The term “concrete poetry” was coined in the 1950s by Brazilian poets and its principle tenet is that using words as part of a specific visual work allows for the words themselves to become part of the poetry, rather than just unseen vehicles for ideas. Concrete poems have been created based on the shapes of stars, cats, apples, trees, candles, faces, and many other shapes. The words or content that create each shape align with the shape itself. For example, the shape of an airplane is created with associated content, ascending into the sky. The words that make the airplane outline state, “a flick, a shudder to soar, a push–the nose, the wings held high and steady–the plane is ready to touch the sky.”

As our textbook mentions, poetry can foster creativity. Concrete poetry is particularly effective in early childhood education because it merges the two most important elements of children’s literature: content/narrative and illustration.

Instructions
Your assignment in this module is to send home a concrete poetry assignment (including directions and a sample poem) for your early childhood classroom. In this mock assignment, the student and his/her parent/guardian will create a concrete poem using/tracing the outline of one of each of their hands. The child and family member must describe how they use their hands, what they like about their hands, and/or why hands are important. Once you complete your directions to send home with a child and your sample hand poem to be attached to these directions, you will ask a friend/family member (preferably one with a child) to complete the second page as if they were your student and parent. Then, you will scan both pages and attach them online for grade submission. Have fun and be creative!

Please review the following templates for this assignment; each template is numbered. You may use these templates as your own documents or create something similar.

You may also wish to print the assignment instructions:

On page 1, clearly type or hand write directions to the parents and students, defining concrete poetry and outlining the project (stay positive, write in letter format, and write clearly on half of the horizontal page). Also, you may use phrases from the descriiption above or below when defining concrete poetry in your directions.
On page 2, create a sample “hand poem” that you have completed with the outline of your own hand on the other half of the horizontal page. You may write and/or draw inside your hand, around the edges, in the fingers, etc. It may rhyme or not. There are no limits with concrete poetry! Be creative so you will inspire the student and his/her parent to be creative!
Page 3 will be a completed set of “hand poems” by a parent/guardian and child. Please prep the horizontal space for the parent/guardian as if you would really send this home by labeling the spaces, drawing a line down the center, etc. Although this may be a friend and his/her child, please imagine this is your student and his/her parent/guardian.
Upload both complete documents.
Evaluation: After completing the assignment, evaluate and consider how you did. If you were to use this assignment in an early childhood education classroom, how would you alter or change it? What did not work so well?

Director of Flight Operations Reporting Responsibility

View out of the window of an airplane at sunrise. A sometimes common discussion regarding the organizational structure of a corporate flight department is to whom in the larger corporate organizational structure the Director of Flight Operations (DO) or the Aviation Department Manager (ADM) should report. There are many possible debatable answers to that question, though one is most generally accepted as best.

Analyze and evaluate the information you have learned in the reading assignments for this Module and state to whom you believe the DO should report in the larger corporate structure, and more importantly, state why you believe that.

Provide examples to support your contentions.
Support your work by citing and referencing a reliable source(s).

What interventions and protocols, and systems are in place and utilized in this facility to help healthcare professionals cope with the situation typical trauma experience and how they deal with it.
The Paper will be written in summary
.

Reflect on our discussion with Prof. Jennifer Cramer about language. We discussed a lot of very interesting features of language and language use—and, in particular, their connections to issues of identity. With respect to our discussion of identity so far, what aspect of our discussion with Prof. Cramer resonated with you the most, or struck you as most interesting and/or important? In answering this question, make sure that you explain that aspect thoroughly (e.g., how the issue arises, what it involves, and so on). Why do you think that this resonated with you, or struck you as most interesting and important? In what ways did that aspect of our discussion fit in with the broader issues of identity that we have been discussing in class?
