POST 1
Hi! I’m Kir and the characteristics that I use to describe myself are loyal, funny, critical, determined, stoic, empathetic, courageous, flexible, slightly ambitious, stubborn, and helpful.
I am shaped by the people, circumstances and experiences in my life. Each role that I have played (daughter, sister, employee, wife, mother, manager, volunteer), every lesson I’ve learned, and each decision that I have made both big and small has left its mark on me and propelled my personal evolution forward. The person I was at 22 is different from who I was at 32 and different again from who I am today. I like to think that I keep becoming a better version of myself but that could be just another self-illusion. The positive self-illusion I use the most is the downward social comparison to make myself feel better. I am very self-aware and self-critical and I’m constantly shifting my perspective to focus on more the positive aspects of my life to avoid ruminating on negative thoughts (Safdar & Sanderson, 2021, p. 46). By making the downward social comparisons I can adjust how I perceive my own characteristics and experiences and while it might not be the best strategy, it has helped me improve my mental state when I’m really feeling low (Makridakis, S., & Moleskis, A. (2015).
My family culture has played the biggest role in how I define myself and make decisions. The values that I have been surrounded by have helped shaped me and continue to influence the choices I make and how I move forward in life. My family is at the centre of my world and the shared values guide how I live. There is a huge emphasis on hard work, loyalty, ethics, compassion and helpfulness that runs deep in my family and these values have shaped who I am, the goals that I set and how I make decisions. Sometimes, I feel the ingrained cultural pressure is heavy and it holds me back because I have to uphold these high value traits even when they might not be in my best interests but are in the interest of ‘the greater good’.

Assignment
We have not yet learned about sleep in this course. However, for this assignment, I would like you to start thinking about the importance of sleep. Later in the course, we will have a lecture about sleep and circadian rhythms. asdf
Think of a person that you care about in your life. Write a compelling letter to convince them about the benefits of sleep for optimal health and general well-being. This letter should be a minimum of 5 detailed paragraphs. Scientific sources:
To support your arguments, use information from the following sources.
TED talks:
Sleep is your superpower- Matt WalKer link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5MuIMqhT8DM
Sleep and immunity- Matt Walker: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SiDMd-b-R2g
Read this article: scientificamericanmind0118-84.pdf in files area
As you watch the TED talks, and read the article, make sure to take notes of information that can later use in your essay.
Note: Please remember that for all assignments for this course you can only support your arguments with scientific evidence from the sources provided in the course. asdf
What to include in the essay
Please include the following in your letter:
An introductory paragraph
What psychological factors are supported by sufficient sleep or affected by the lack of it (i.e., memory, attention, concentration, emotional regulation, etc…)?
What physiological factors are supported by enough sleep or disrupted by the lack of it? What specific suggestions can you provide to ensure adequate amounts of sleep?
A brief closing section that summarizes the main points of the letter.
Note: Be specific and detailed in the presentation of the scientific evidence that describes the importance of sleep for psychological and physiological function. In-text citations and references
It will be important that you appropriately reference your sources with in-text citations and that you add your references at the end of your letter/essay in APA style. For those of you that have not learned to cite sources in APA style, I have included a module titled “7th edition APA style” in Canvas.

Hi! I need help reviewing my final project. This project has 3 parts. Part 1 & 2 are complete and attached below. Part 1 is from the heading “Description” to the communication matrix graph on page 4. Part 2 is from the heading “Enhancing Communication Skills for Sam: A Tailored Intervention Approach” to the end. Part 3 needs to be added. The communication matrix is attached below along with the rubric and the document containing part 1 and 2. Part 1: I need help reviewing part 1 and editing based on my professors feedback which was “objectives need to be clearly written such that anyone can read them and implement them in an identical manner. For example, what signals will he use? What does socializing look like?”
Part 2: can be left alone. My professor had no feedback. Part 3: Please help me add this section which must include: Present level of performance with completed communication matrix
Three communication objectives, each containing the following:
Student, condition, behavior, and criterion
Intervention strategy (name, description, rationale, procedures)
3 recommendations of how you would help the student achieve the objective (at least 1 incorporates technology).Provide 3 recommendations of how you would help the student achieve each objective (for a total of 9 recommendations). At least 1 of the 3 recommendations for each objective should incorporate technology. The technology could be primarily for student use (e.g., AAC device) or teacher use (e.g., data collection). You must have at least 6 different recommendations across the 3 objectives.
