ELM Model: Is Mercy The Right Choice?
Hi Niomi
I enjoyed your post this week and can understand through your post your take on the ELM model. Your example of central processing is similar to mine in the dipiction of wanting to continue your education, and how Mercy's advertisment persuasided your decision. I too had the same decision when deciding to finsish school and through Mercy's brilliant advertisment that i seen more then 10 times daily, i was able to analyze if Mercy was indeed the right choice for me.After seeing the many billboards and bus advertisments i made an appointment with a councelor and made the journey to return back to school while also learning some of my CUNY credits could go towards my degree here.

    Written by Bryan Stevenson, Just Mercy: A Story of Justice and Redemption, tells a story of an upcoming lawyer who wanted to help falsely accused individuals get off death row. Stevenson actually wrote this book about himself. As an African American lawyer who graduated from Harvard Law School and decided to move to Montgomery, Alabama in hopes of opening his very own law firm. However, this was not going to be your stereotypical firm. Stevenson purposely made his law office a non-profit to help inmates who were falsely accused of committing a crime that ultimately sentenced them the death penalty. The concept of having a non-profit law firm was very interesting to me because whenever you hire an attorney it is known that you will need to pay…

    After reading both introductions from Dr.Loewen’s Lies My Teacher Told Me and Dr. Schweikart’s 48 Liberal Lies About American History I would have to agree with Dr.Loewen. Schweikart made accusations that facts, true facts, were missing from our textbooks and that the facts that are being placed in our textbooks are unimportant, and have nothing to do with how America’s future will look. Whereas Lowen made the point, that I fully believe, that “These books are huge”(Loewen 3). I mean don’t get me wrong I love reading. I enjoy reading about our nation’s history. I just enjoy reading about it without all the banners and highlighted words. I agree with Loewen, these textbooks are making learning about history boring.…

    One of the hallmarks of the theory is that each level is built heavily upon the experiences at lower levels (Benner, 1984). For instance, the only usable experiences novices can rely on are textbook knowledge and black-or-white "rules" laid out prior to clinical exposure. Without the benefit of real-life scenarios that are often perplexing to the novice and any given situation's…

    I’ve lived in the same neighborhood for as long as I can remember. I’ve gone to school with the same peers. I’ve been blessed enough to not have dealt with much turmoil in my life. I live with my supporting mother who has always been around to drop everything she’s doing to come to my aid. With all this in mind, you could come to the conclusion that I have not had to deal with a lot of change in my life nor have I ever welcomed it. So in my sophomore year when I was invited to participate in a summer program which entailed me leaving home for six weeks, me nor my mother were excited about the opportunity. I did not know that the program, called the Emory Pipeline Collaborative Program, would completely change my outlook on life and my identity…

    While I enjoy the typical classroom setting, I often found myself unable to engage in conversation or ask questions as I constantly felt as though I was behind on note taking. With prerecorded lessons, interactive online settings, and a smaller cohort, I believe that I will be better prepared to provide my input and engage in strong discussions with my peers. Specifically, about the effects of programs on youth and dealing with crisis situations. As an individual in the middle of a transitionary period in her life, as I am looking to switch jobs, an online degree also allows me the flexibility to move without having to worry about transferring out of the program. One thing that I found particularly intriguing about Simmons’ program is that it provides its students the ability to choose one of four clinical specializations. While I have an interest in both Child and Family and Trauma and Interpersonal Violence, I find satisfaction knowing that my classes will be tailored to my specific needs and that when I do choose a specialization, I will be receiving a strong education based on both classroom and field experience in that…

    The Treaty of Versailles was considered a “Troubled Treaty”, because it had initially caused more trouble than it was intended to prevent. The purpose of the Treaty of Versailles was to end the long, four year conflict between the Allies and Central Powers, a devastating event known as World War One. Though the Treaty had managed to temporarily keep the peace between nations, it wasn’t signed by all the participants from the war, and had thrown Germany into economic chaos. First, Germany alone was to blame for the First World War. This enormous responsibility left Germany in a crippling debt of three million dollars. The overwhelming reparation fees caused Germany to revert to desperate measures, leading to hyperinflation in the mid twenties. In fact, they were so desperate, the German government started printing money. Unfortunately, this made the value of their currency drop to the point that money was a children’s toy, it was of so little value. Secondly, Germany’s crushed national pride had it’s people looking for a sense of leadership and stability. Their desperation lead the German people to allow leaders like Hitler and Mussolini to take advantage of them, resulting in the creation of Hitler’s National-Socialist Party, otherwise known as the Nazis. This party would later be responsible for the genocide of the Jewish population throughout Germany. Lastly, when Germany was declared accountable for the war, it was written in the Treaty of Versailles that they would have a quota for machinery they could produce, and had their majority of weapons and ammunition confiscated and/or destroyed. Though this was thought to be a good idea, because it would later keep Germany’s military under control, it actually caused them to upgrade their weaponry, and reform their forces, making them more of a threat. Overall, the Treaty of Versailles had earned the name, “a Troubled Treaty” despite its intentions to keep the peace between nations. It instead resulted in a crippling…

    I still can recall the feeling of pure unadulterated fear, and even thinking about it now gives me that sense of dread that has become all too familiar. Every first day was slightly different, but they all had the same effect on me, the uncomfortable feeling of being on the chopping block. In four years, I have experienced the feeling of brand new faces staring at me with harsh, judgemental eyes 4 times, something most high schoolers have to endure only once, if at all. However, these four different educational institutions have brought more than just scholarly concepts into my mind. They have each bent and contorted me in ways that have forced me to learn to become inure. Each transfer required me to adapt and learn to make friends with people who were not…

    Susan Blackman was a busy woman and going to a new doctor for what she thought was a simple cold and a new one at that only seemed to be a waste of time. Susan had a day full of meetings and she was supposed to get out of work earlier to see her twins perform in the elementary school Christmas concert. Susan had put it off long enough and only felt as she was getting worse; going to a doctor she didn’t know and on a busy day like this would be a difficult task for her to say the least. Susan had decided to leave her last doctor’s office because she felt as there really wasn’t any compassion for her there. She would sit in the waiting room for 45 minutes to an hour after appointment time. It seemed as the doctor and her staff could not empathize with Susan and her schedule. Sure the doctor seemed to care about how Susan was feeling and could sympathize with how Susan was physically doing, but really didn’t seem to be able to have any empathy for a single mother of two and her busy schedule. How was the doctor not able to empathize with her? Wasn’t everyone born with this life skill? The milestone in early childhood development of empathy is lacking in adults today due to their caregivers not showing them empathy as a child.…
