How do you think individuals' preconceived notions, prejudices, and their own interpretations of other cultures impact the workplace? How might you employ the psychodynamic approach to help the employees get along with each other and work better together?

Explore alternative schooling options for Children. Did you know that Home Schooling is on the rise? Did you know that private schools are available, but how much do they really cost? Were you aware that there are online schools that children can attend like a charter school (they are public schools)? Are the social aspects really a concern in today's world of teams, clubs, recreational activities, and other groups in which kids are involved? Look at at least two different types of education for children and comment on what you find. A brief summary of each is fine, or you can compare and contrast the two. You could even compare and contrast each with typical public schools. Have fun with it! Be sure to include all websites that you visit and utilize in your assignment (a minimum of two are required).

In May, 2016, Fort McMurray, Alberta, was devastated by a raging wildfire that destroyed over 2500 homes and businesses, and forced the evacuation of thousands of residents. Community members began to return home in June; however, many did not have a house to go back to. There were no deaths as a direct result of the wildfire, however, two young people lost their lives in a devastating head on collision as they fled the city.

The evacuation of Fort McMurray was terrifying for some, due to a large, intense and unpredictable fire, that came very close to the city’s core. For a look at what it was like for some as they drove out of the city, please see:

As stated above, some residents lost their homes or businesses to fire; others had cleanup and decontamination processes to go through. Homes in fire ridden areas smell badly due to smoke, and other reasons, including mould formation and rotting food.

In his model of allostatic load, Dr. Bruce McEwen talks about the impact of trauma (amongst a number of other factors) on the wear and tear of the physiological stress response system.   Using his framework, and the Alberta wildfire scenario (you may speak generally, or use a specific case study that you found online or made up using the fire scenario), explain and demonstrate how such a trauma might possibly influence one’s physiological response and susceptibility to developing PTSD (make sure to explain the concepts of allostatic load/overload and incorporate the DSM definition of PTSD in the context of your answer). Be sure to also address previous factors in a person’s life that might influence the response (apply these factors in the context of the model, and in your example).

Then, explain how the culmination of these incidents (coupled with other relevant factors in your scenario) might influence one’s response (physical and psychological) to a subsequent traumatic experience and/or social and environmental stressors that may occur after the fire, such as a chronic issue that might occur within one’s family or in the workplace. Again, be sure to use McEwen’s model in your answer, demonstrating an understanding of his ideas.
