Mission trip to Mexico to help with medical at an orphanage

Part 1: You will write a 1250 1500 word narrative describing the trip. This is a report, written in GCU style. You will need a minimum of three scholarly resources (see the resource list below for ideas) and needs to address the following areas:
1. An overview of your purpose for the project: Where are going, and what service will you be providing? Remember, evangelism cannot be the sole purpose of your trip.
2. Cultural and social aspects of the country and its population that led you to choose this area of the world.
3. How your choice of project works toward fulfillment of the Judeo-Christian-Islamic ideal to love your neighbor as yourself: How does your personal worldview and the possible worldviews of your target population influence your plans for the trip?
4. Information about your target population: Who are you planning to serve? How does this population compare to the population of the country as a whole? You will also need to make a projection about the target population in 5 years. The World Factbook provides population growth data to help you here. See the Tips and formulas section below for information about how to present this in your paper.
5. Aspects of the country that make it a suitable location for your trip. In particular, include information about
a. The economic situation in your country and how your project will improve this.
b. Possible concerns that you need to keep in mind to keep your team and your target population safe. This could be safety from violence or from health problems (for example, will your team need inoculations to travel to the country).

Respond to the article below written by Jon Witt with 400 words. Do you agree or disagree? What does the text tell you about gender roles?

Conventionally, social scientists examine how parents create gender roles for children from birth through adolescence. Lawrence Ganong and Marilyn Coleman have found that children can also affect their parents gender roles. They administered the Bem Sex Role Inventory to 306 parents (153 couples) who had daughters only (N = 41), sons only (N = 41), or an equal number of sons and daughters (N = 71).

Fathers with sons had lower femininity scores than fathers with daughters only. Mothers with sons were significantly more feminine than those who only had daughters. These results do not support the common sense expectation that socializing daughters would have a feminizing effect on parents and that socializing sons would have a masculinizing effect.

Ganong and Coleman contend that parents become more sex-typed (that is, fathers become more masculine than feminine and mothers more feminine than masculine). Parents seem to respond to sons by becoming clearer role models of masculinity and femininity. Daughters, on the other hand, have no such effect because there is relatively less concern for teaching them a rigid gender role. The study supports yet another interactionist dimension to gender roles, that the child-parent relationship is mutually influential.

Explain What is \”power\”?

THINK ABOUT HOW ORDINARY PEOPLE CAN RESPOND TO THE ABUSE OF POWER IN POLITICS AND WHETHER OR NOT YOU BELIEVE IT CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. THINK ABOUT HOW \”THE RULE OF LAW\” FUNCTIONS TO LIMIT POWER (AND THE ABUSE OF POWER).

(1) What is \”power\”?

What is \”politics\”? (define these terms per the reading).

How does \”power\” relate to the concept of politics? What is political participation and how does it relate to power? Why is it important?

(2) What types of power does the textbook discuss? WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT FORMS OF POWER ACCORDING TO THE READING AND CLASS DISCUSSIONS. Be sure to define these terms before you discuss them).

(3) What other qualities allow for leaders, government AND non-state actors to exercise power over the people? CITE SPECIFIC EXAMPLES FROM THE FILMS AND TEXTBOOK. IS IT THROUGH CORRUPT PRACTICES? MANIPULATION? PROPAGANDA?

Think about the influence that leaders, states, MNCS, INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS, FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS AND TRANSNATIONAL NON-GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS have over politics and policy.

Why are multinational corporations, transnational organizations dangerous?What impact do they have on the financial and personal lives of average citizens? Do they infringe on individual rights? How? How do they influence democracy? In what ways do you see government and corporations working together to promote the interests of the few?(film, readings–think about the the Corporation, and any of the films shown in class). The films should serve as examples of how power is exercised

(5) How might these powerful influences be brought under control? How are citizens responding to this unequal distribution of power? YOU SHOULD DISCUSS THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE IN THIS SECTION AND ANY OTHER VIDEOS SHOWN IN CLASS.

(6) WHAT CAN YOU CONCLUDE ABOUT THE NATURE OF POWER IN POLITICS? YOU CAN TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK IN THE CONCLUSION BUT PLEASE DO NOT REVIEW THE FILMS. I WANT YOUR PAPER TO BE OBJECTIVE. REMEMBER WHAT YOU DISCUSSED IN YOUR POSTS! Why is this important to understanding politics? Why should we care? Can you think of any current examples of how power is influencing politics? (maybe think about the policies of the Trump Administration?).

As we have learned thus far in the semester,international organizations, states, non-governmental organizations, leaders and large corporations exercise political power. Think about how these various actors influence politics, policy and more specifically the lives of everyday citizens. THINK ABOUT HOW ORDINARY PEOPLE CAN RESPOND TO THE ABUSE OF POWER IN POLITICS AND WHETHER OR NOT YOU BELIEVE IT CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. THINK ABOUT HOW \”THE RULE OF LAW\” FUNCTIONS TO LIMIT POWER (AND THE ABUSE OF POWER).
