Having a strong mentor during your first few years as a librarian can provide a safety net of advice, encouragement, and caution for a newly minted professional. Such a relationship would be even better if it began during LIS education. This would also serve to diminish the perceived divide between practice and library schools. In fact, mentoring up-and-coming professionals, those who will inherit the changed, and changing, landscape of libraries, should be one of the values of librarianship.

Is it worthwhile to formalize this process on both sides of practice and LIS? Could students be aligned with practicing librarians within their area of interest early on and continue to rely on them throughout the coursework, job search, and first hire? Such initiatives could be local, within a school, or could even stretch worldwide, enhanced by technologies such as Skype. Let?s look at some of the benefits of mentoring.

The value of mentoring

Mentors can advise new librarians on all aspects of the profession, including tips for getting along with coworkers, the ins and outs of dealing with library administrators, and the like. The online world offers a new twist. While much is gained by participating in the ubiquitous social networks, there are pitfalls as well. A professional?s expressions are now open for the world to read, hear, or view. Because anyone tweeting, blogging, or Facebooking can share their thoughts so easily and post sometimes without thought, a strong mentor who guides students or new grads in the ways of online life could help make or break a career.

I was lucky in my years at the public library to have had several mentors who pushed, prodded, and helped prioritize things for me as I discovered technology, blogging, and the social web. As I moved into teaching, I became a de facto mentor for many of our new hires or for those interested in going to library school. I found playing both roles, mentee and mentor, to be rewarding. They contrasted with my own master?s program in the 1990s, which afforded little opportunity for finding a mentor. Nor do I recall much mention of the process or the role a mentor could play in one?s professional life.

Mentoring is different from the type of advising many LIS students receive, which is usually of the ?Which classes should I take next?? variety. Yes, it is possible to slide through a library program without speaking more than a few words to an advisor, but quality advising can reach the level of mentoring and improve the educational experience.

Benefits for profs

It is easy to pay lip service to ?networking opportunities? such as receptions, open houses, and other social events during library school, but how many true mentor relationships are established there? It takes a certain type of student?extroverted for sure?and a certain type of mentor?one who has the time, patience, and motivation to serve. In a profession that has historically attracted introverts, this relationship is indeed hard to form. In addition, many librarians are doing more work than ever before bowing to economic pressures, and it becomes a perfect storm of ?no time, too shy.?

What of library school professors? Joe Hardenbrook offered some advice about library school at his Library Dude blog: ?Get a mentor! Someone who is a working librarian. Not a library school professor who hasn?t worked in libraries for 20 years.? It?s a criticism I?ve heard before?LIS professors are out of touch with true practice. Maybe the mentoring should go both ways. Profs should get on the front lines every so often with the person they?re mentoring?that way, both learn. The same could be said for participation online. Those not familiar with social sites might learn from their students. In turn, a discussion about ethics and values in one?s online life might prevent embarrassment or worse.

Administrators could play a role as well. As such, students and new grads learn not only on the front line but from behind the scenes, too. That?s where funding issues come into play, where you learn how the tough decisions are made, and where you see the mandate administrators always have to balance cost with customer service and politics. It?s easy for front-line staff to criticize, but it?s a different thing altogether when they learn what goes on in admin. The shape of this process is circular: students learning the front lines and the admin side, admin renewing themselves on the front line, and LIS profs also relearning (or learning) front-line skills and perhaps refreshing on the admin side.

Most of the time when we hear about mentoring in librarianship, the word ?informal is attached. Could a formalized process work, or is mentoring a more organic thing that grows from like-mindedness and a comfort built over time? Let?s start creating these connections for students (and for profs and administrators) and move to formalize the process.

America has a dual founding, one Lockean and one Puritan. The Lockean founding emphasizes government as social contract and liberty as the absence of restraint.
The Puritan founding maintains that there is only liberty to do the good and that political society should be a community bound by love and affection.
There are elements of both of these foundings within our society today, but over time the Lockean founding has taken over and purged most of the remnants of the Puritan founding.
The Lockean conception of liberty has moved from politics into other areas of human life, economics and personal relationships, for example.
This victory of the Lockean founding can be seen in our contemporary work, education, religions, architecture, families, etc. The problem is that this Lockean conception of liberty is inherently contradictory and eventually destroys itself.
Tocqueville shows us a picture of what this destruction looks like in his description of democratic despotism. He also argues that associational and religious life are important forces which push back against Lockeanism and may help to prevent America from going down this road.
This is the narrative of American political and cultural development.
.
The Paper MUST engage with the themes of the course which is the Lockean and Tocqueville. I mean that it must in some way engage with this narrative. I want to point out that and argue that the narrative is false in someway,and point out some phenomena which do not fit into the narrative about women and the Feminism movement has not destroyed the family way of life. The movement became a necessity because divorce was easier to obtain and therefore women needed to find a way to support themself and also their family. The idea that women do not necessarily want it all but strive for it. That it is possible for women to achieve goals just like men do.

I am enclosing two articles that need to be used in the paper and the other two articles can be outside sources

Sociology Essay - Assess the Functionalist view of the role of education in Britain.

Plan

Introduction - write a brief paragraph to explain how you will answer the question. You should explain that you will be discussing Functionalist views of the role of education by describing and evaluating the views of Durkheim and Parsons. You will then, as an alternative to the Functionalist perpective, discuss Marxist and Liberalist views of the role of education.

Paragraph One - Describe ans evaluate Durkeim (education upholds norms and values, social solidarity etc).
Paragraph Two - Describe and evaluate Parsons (the education system serves as a bridge, allocates roles and is meritocratic etc).
Paragraph Three - Describe and evaluate Bowles & Gintis (schools are not meritocratic, capalist values and solidarity prevent the working classes from asserting their rights).
Paragraph Four - Describe and evaluate Willis (schools fail to promote the working classes).
Paragraph Five - Describe and evaluate Liberalism (Illich - education should be modified).

Conclusion - A brief summary of how the information you have provided answers the question and any original concluding remarks.

This essay is about the Functionalist view of the role of education. Paragraph 1 & 2 are fuctionalists views; paragraphs 3, 4 & 5 are not, therefore compare/contrast Functionalists views in these latter paragraphs please. (3,4&5)

I would like to see a draft of a introductory chapter for the dissertation draft I am working on. The dissertation is comprised of three articles that I have written and the introductory chapter needs to summarize and introduce the entire body of work in an engaging way. I, however, am at a complete loss for how this might look and think that a draft would help me to structure my thinking.

I'm struggling with how to describe the common themes across the papers. In some sense they are all about social ties because these are a key predictor in each paper. All papers also focus on Hispanic immigrants. But the outcomes of investigation vary across the papers. Paper 1 looks at the ability to learn English, Paper 2 looks at the likelihood of developing depression, Paper 3 looks at the development of political trust.

I have included copies of the introductions for each paper in the hopes that reading through these would help construct a draft of the introductory chapter that ties things together and that I can use as a thought-starter draft.

Introduction:

Many believe that business entities should have an ethical duty to be socially responsible, to work towards increasing its positive effects on society while decreasing its negative effects. Many organizations look for opportunities to be socially responsible while also creating shareholder wealth.

Given:

Company Q is a small local grocery store chain located in a major metropolitan area. They have recently closed a couple of stores in higher-crime-rate areas of the city, reportedly because these two stores were consistently losing money. After years of requests from customers, all of their stores have started offering a very limited amount of health-conscience and organic products??"all of which were high margin items. When asked by the areas food bank for donation of day-old products, management declined deciding instead to throw the food away, citing worries over lost revenues due to possible fraud and stealing by employees who might say they are donating the food.

Task:
Write a brief essay (suggested length of 2??"3 pages) in which you:

A. Evaluate Company Qs current attitude toward social responsibility.
1. Recommend three areas that could be improved regarding the companys attitude toward social responsibility.

Deviance and Social control ??" Writing Assignment

The documentary, Bastards of the Party, examines gangs in Los Angeles. Among the documentarys many strengths is its historical perspective. The filmmaker is asking what factors, over a long period of time, contributed to the emergence of African-American gangs in Los Angeles.

You can watch the film online at:

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=823834995920990570#
or Google: Bastards of the Party and it will come up on video.google.com

The assignment is to apply one theory, or a combination of theories and concepts (for example, subcultures), weve discussed in class to analyze the emergence, development, evolution and culture of Los Angeles gangs as presented in the documentary. The essay should not be a description of what happens in the film (e.g., first, African Americans migrated to Los Angeles, then they were treated bad, then gangs formed to protect themselves, then the Watts riot occurred, then the Black Panther party emerged, etc.). An analysis strives to develop a thesis to explain how and why.

The main theories of deviance and social control that are applicable include (but are not exhaustive):

a. Structural Strain and Anomie Theory; might include Goals/Means Gap and Cloward and Ohlins Illegitimate Means and Delinquent Subcultures.
What social structural conditions compelled young black men in Los Angeles to form/join gangs? Consider economic conditions, racism, blocked legitimate opportunities/illegitimate opportunities.
b. Social Learning Theory; this may include Hirschis Social Control Theory.
Socialization is a fundamental factor in this approach. How did the social conditions of African Americans in Los Angeles impact socialization of young black men? You can consider any or all of of the decades examined in the film.
c. Conflict Theory ??" any or combination of different versions.
Consider the power and relations in Los Angeles. How did/does the white power structure treat African Americans, from the 1940s through to the present (social control)? Consider segregation, the police, economic downturn, etc. What was response of black community in Los Angeles, especially the different generations of young people?
d. Labeling Theory (may include Stigma and Development of Self)
Throughout the film institutionalized racism (systematic racism through social institutions ??" economic, political, etc.) is demonstrated; and labeling and its outcomes of exclusion and treatment of deviants is a major aspect of racism. How and why did racism and labeling contribute to emergence and development of early and later forms of black gangs in Los Angeles?

To Repeat: These are just some of the ways of approaching and analyzing the film. Use your imagination and interest in devising your own approach.

In a short paper it is impossible to discuss every aspect covered in the film, or every theoretical model that contributes to explaining the social issue. I recommend that you focus on a particular aspect or factor, and theory(s) and concepts that help explain that aspect.

Your discussion should include a specific explanation of the theory(s) and concepts you are using. When appropriate, use examples from the documentary.

Your discussion should be based on, and reference, not only the film but course material ??" the textbook and relevant handout readings.

Format
1. 3-5 pages, typed. This does not include title or references pages.
2. Essay format
3. Double spaced, 12 point font
4. Paginate (number the pages)
5. Correct citation of readings, quotes, etc. ??" I will deduct points.
a. In text of essay, cite source of information/evidence: for example (Thio 2009,210)
b. You must include a Reference page, with full citation of sources referenced in text of essay.
6. Spell and grammar check ??" I will deduct points
7. Above all ??" dont plagiarize! For information on plagiarism, as well as when and how to properly cite sources, go to the UHD library webpage.

This dissertation proposal - must illustrate many historical factors that the church among black people was and shall be the only institutional area that developed to any sigificent degree of redemptive role in the black community. The black church took on a multiple role in the past/present as a light in the community. Why? Because the black church was the most stable and dominant institutional sphere in black communities in the United States.

In this proposal examine the origins and purposes of the Black Church. Look at its link to the slaves, African Heritage and Christianization. Examine it historical role of church in slave revolts and community development.
Note: the black church remains a vital element in the black community today, and the importance of the black church was established in the (ante-bellum) South. Religion was important to the blacks brought t this country as slaves, for they had their own religion in their native land and fused elements of that earlier tradition with Christian tradition they found here. The blacks in Africa who were captured and brought to America as slaves also had developed and developing culture, and those who were enslaved were removed from that culture and thrust into a very different world where they were slaves rather than masters. they brought elements of their own culture with them, and some of these elements persisted in spite of the different location and the efforts of slaves-owners to eliminate them.

Close with 144 year history on First Baptist Missionary Church, Wilmington, North Carolina (I will provide history)

The question I am looking to address with this paper is,

What role might time play in information assurance, or in civilizing the cyber world and its laws?

The following is just some thoughts I have on the question, to give the writer an idea of what I am thinking.

I feel that time will play a major role in information assurance and in civilizing the cyber world and it laws. It is important to understand that the laws that we currently have today in the United States did not evolve over night. Just like the human race we gain more knowledge as time went on and as we grew, adapted, and changed, we in turn learned that laws were an important part of our society because they create a concrete way of governing the people. Time changes everything. Thing you do now you will have no interest in doing 20 years down the road. Laws are viewed in the same capacity. It is important to know what we have to govern us now so we know how to change things in the future. As for the internet and the laws that govern it, it will take broad definitions as to what is considered right and what is considered wrong. It will be hard to govern the internet and all the activities that go on in the same second from billions of PCs and internet connections.
Homeland Security was established eight years ago, Homeland security didnt exist. We thought that on a large scale that we were a safe country. We knew we had enemies but we thought that if something were to happen our 9-1-1 emergency system would be able to handle it all. Then two planes crashed into the twin tower, one hit the pentagon and another crashed in a field. Four planes were hijacked on the same day and we knew nothing until the end. We realized then that we needed new laws and regulations and procedure to deal with such tragic events.
The internet is no different, there is no face, no name, no race, no nothing; just an IP address and that is what we are going to have to build off of. Many people just want to check their emails, and communicate with family and friends; not everyone is on the internet to hack into the computers of others and steal personal information or trying to send viruses through email and websites. Its the few people who have personal agendas and vendettas that ruin it for the rest of us. I understand free speech and how important it is and how people should be able to display publicly what they feel they have the right to, but that doesnt disregard the fact that things need to be monitored from smaller children. I dont feel it is the laws responsibility to deter children from entering into adult sights on the internet just like it is not their right to deter them from robbing a bank. It is the law enforcers job to take action after a crime has been committed, it is personal morals and experiences that try in talk a child out of a bad choice. Laws will only improve with time, because it is time that will show how many ways it can be broken. Once we have seen all we need to see, then we will be able to write laws that are specific and that have punishments that fit the crime committed.
At the website provided: http://www.nap.edu/netsafekids/pp_li_il.html, you will find the laws that are currently active as it pertains to the internet. There are few that pertain to children and the internet. We have yet to cross the line of sexual predators that are after our young children on the internet. But it is also understood how uncharted that territory is. How unlawful it is to monitor someone personal belongings without search warrants and how our current laws protect every individual living in the United States. It is with time that we will learn what works and was doesnt and it is with time that we will formulate a way to govern the internet just like we have learn to govern all other public forms of communication.

This last paragraph is something I definitely want the writer to address.

Laws for the Internet are evolving but they are currently inadequate. The real problem is that the Internet is evolving faster than our legal system can produce legislation to control it. If the Internet ever matures to a steady state and doesn't change for a decade or so I think our legal system will evolve to control it but until that happens I think it will always be a loosing battle (legislatively). While the Internet is changing so rapidly I think another option is to use code rather than laws to enforce ethical and moral behavior online.


I want the writer to crystallize a crisp statement about what your paper will address and what it won't in the introduction paragraph.

JRN 670 Final Paper Requirements

For your final paper, your goal is to demonstrate the following (2) points:
1) you understand public relations as a management function
2) you understand how public relations serves as part of the communication mix and supports an organizations marketing, advertising, interpersonal, and promotional efforts

You have (2) options from which to choose to fulfill this assignment:

OPTION #1: you are able to apply what you have learned to an actual organizational setting/situation
OR
OPTION #2: you are able to educate the reader (your instructor) about a particular public relations concept, theory, or principle by substantiating its relevance in the business environment.
__________________

OPTION #1: [write an analysis that focuses on the following requirements]:

Using the *RACE model (research, action planning, communication, evaluation), APPLY these principles and concepts to an actual organizational situation. Yes, it may be your OWN company in fact, I encourage it. However, it is not required. You may opt to focus on an organization that is in the news or another organization of choice as opposed to your own organization. It may be a problem (or opportunity) that focuses on either an internal (employees, management, etc.) or external public (stockholders, customers, guests, patients, etc.)

More info. regarding the RACE model is located in chapters 10-13 in the Cutlip text. Each chapter is devoted to one aspect of this 4-step PR Process.

EXAMPLES: an organization has just restructured and you are analyzing the situation and suggesting ways to enhance relationships during the post-transition period (internal public).
Or, an organization is experiencing much negative publicity due to a recent crisis situation in which it was involved. Your paper can analyze the situation based on how you propose to diffuse this negativity (which focuses on external public perceptions).

OPTION #2: [write an educational paper/critique that focuses on the following requirements]:

Refer to Effective Public Relations by Cutlip, Center, & Broom and identify 1-2 key public relations concepts, principles, and/or theoretical underpinnings you have learned about in this course. You are also welcome to choose a concept, theory, or principle you learned from your supplemental readings and/or accompanying web site links.

EXAMPLE: if I were completing this assignment, I might examine social responsibility concepts discussed by Cutlip, Center, and Broom. Then Id use Reis and Reis material to explain how part of a public relations professionals commitment to society is to reinforce that the organization he/she represents is socially responsible, gives back to the community, etc.
Then Id use my own organization to demonstrate HOW we actually do that by
giving back to the Knoxville community via public relations-oriented activities.

PLEASE NOTE: Not only is this a graduate course ~ but it is also a journalism graduate course.
Therefore, this assignment, like others, must demonstrate the rigor of a well-written document. Hence, students will be graded on grammar as well as content/style. I encourage you to have someone proof your paper before submitting it for a final grade.

There are faxes for this order.

Augustine discusses idealized gender roles in Christianity, especially in his portrayal of his mother, Monica. Beowulf is a product of Christian Europe. Yet, do these works conform to Augustines Christian notions of gender relations, role of woman, and of love and marriage? How much, if any, are Augustines Christian ethics prevalent in this text regarding gender roles? Using Confessions and Beowulf, write a thesis-based essay that compares or contrasts the texts representation of the role of gender relations.
Your paper should provide evidence and argument for a clear thesis. One test of an argument is its ability to withstand a plausible counter-argument. Your essay must take account of the most plausible counter-argument to your thesis and must respond adequately to it.
(Use only books 1-8 of Confessions and all of Beowulf).

The assignment is to develop a curriculum following New York State education standards, which is easily located on the internet, (nysed.com). It is not an essay, it is a almost written as a list, sent below is an example of a 9th grade math curriculum plan, follow that outline. I need it to be a curriculum for middle school social studies, that would include grades 6,7,8. Thank you.
