My Implementation goals
Provide OER resources for course
Share OER resources for ethical activities, assessments, and outcome attainment
Empower students by implementing both universal design and culturally responsive methods, strategies, and resources to allow students to more fully engage in the topic of ethics in education and their own practice.

The following are the learning outcomes specific to this course:
Recognize, describe, and critique current ethical theories.
Recognize, describe, and apply current ethics practices and issues in education.
Evaluate ethical and professional issues relevant to the practitioner, scholar-practitioner, and scholar.

This outline serves as an Ethnic Studies Community Project assignment and could be implemented throughout the course. As this project will be carried out in the community, addressing a contemporary social problem within the discipline, it could be supplemented with the content of the course. Each section below takes about 1-2 weeks to complete. At the end of the semester, students should be able to present their group project describing their findings, conclusions, and experiences. This could also be used as a written assignment and/or presentation.

Module on Ethnic Studies Key Terms and Origins. Module can be used for introduction level Ethnic Studies course. 

This is one of the first assignments that we give students in Ethnographies of Work.  It is based off the OER chapter in Ethnography Made Easy on Autoethnography 

Derivation of Euler's formula from a Taylor series expansion of the expontential function for a complex argument.Derivation of the multiple angle trig identities for sine and cosine using the Binaomial theorem and Euler's formula.

Derive Euler's formula from the Taylor series of the exponential function with a complex argument.
Derive the multi-angle trigonometric identities using Euler's formula.
Derive the Binomial theorem by induction.

A lesson plan based on a quick video overview of "The CRAAP method for evaluating sources of information" by Kallie Gay.

Students use the 5 Ws (who, what, when, where, why, and how) to evaluate an information source and determine if they would cite it in a paper. This assignment is used as an information literacy exercise at the University of Tennessee Libraries, where students are given a New York Times column to read before completing the assignment in groups.

For a copy of this resource as it was originally given to students, go to: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0vtrPDaeiV6VFJUYUNzRGlfb00/view?usp=sharing. Results of the use of this activity were shared in an article published in the journal Reference & User Services Quarterly 53, no. 4 (Summer 2014): 334-347.

This Project has been completed as part of a standard  Calculus 3 in-person course with during Fall 2023 semester at MassBay Community College, Wellesley Hills, MA. 

Cultivating stakeholders is a critical part of event management. This application activity covers the following four-stage process for involving stakeholders in an event: identification of stakeholders, classifying stakeholders, assessing stakeholders, and maintaining stakeholders. A case study is provided for students to apply to cultivating stakeholders in an industry example.

In the market segmentation of festival attendees’ application activity, students will review a mini-lecture material related to market segmentation, target marketing, and event positioning. Students will then apply the concepts of marketing segmentation, target marketing, and event positioning by analyzing data collected from an international music festival to establish the target market of the international music festival.

Risk management is a critical part of event management. This worksheet covers definitions of the key aspects of risk management and the steps taken by event management in creating a risk management plan. A case study is provided for students to apply the risk management process in an industry example.

Sponsorship management is activities that an event organization engages in to secure support from sponsors and manage the interests of sponsors at the event. The organizer and sponsor are jointly interested in successfully operating events for their mutual benefit. This section provides an overview of sponsorship management for events. The differences between sponsorship and advertising were compared for their strengths and weaknesses. The sponsorship management of a social event was discussed from the prospective from the perspective of organizers and sponsors. A case study on an LGBT+ event provided a case problem for how to construct a social media sponsorship package.

Volunteer management is an integral part of any event that relies on volunteer contributions. Managing volunteers for events is related to three related domains: events, human resources, and volunteering. Each of the domains is discussed for its relation to volunteer management in the context of a sporting event. The practice of managing volunteers is considered in terms of its phases. A real-life case is provided so that students can apply their understandings of volunteer management in resolving the case problems.

Financial management helps an event planning operation to achieve a profitable future in the competitive business environment. Astute financial management involves securing, allocating and controlling financial resources held by the operation. Good budgeting practices ensure a successful outcome of an event that meets financial objectives. A real-life case study is provided for students to apply financial management principles.

In this presentation and discussion for high school students, students will learn a simple definition for algorithm and discuss the ways that algorithms shape social media content. Students will question whether the algorithms in their own social media allow them to pursue their interests or limit them. Students will explore ways to adjust settings, privacy and ad preferences to affect the algorithms in the platforms they use.
