PSYC338 UNIT 8 DISCUSSION

Unit 8 Discussion

 

Subscribe

Please consider the following prompt and craft a response that sufficiently captures all aspects of it from your unique point of view and original research. Please cite and reference any source(s) you use to help write this response in  APA format . Notice that in addition to your Main Entry post, you will need to offer two substantive classmate response posts to complete this exercise. See below instructions that will guide your peer engagement thinking/posting. See syllabus or course calendar for due dates for both Main Entry posts and peer engagement.

Main Entry (Parts 1 & 2):

Part 1: Post a brief analysis of what you learned from this unit’s assigned resources. Include at least 2 takeaways about gender and the workplace in your response ( one from a reading and  one from a video), considering and discussing both points through your unique point of view. Remember to cite the source of your information and reference it at the end of your post as well.

Part 2: Locate current information (within the past 3-5 years) about wage trends from established research organizations or government websites such as the  Pew Research Center ,  US Census Bureau ,  US Department of Labor , etc. Use keywords in the websites’ search function like “gender wage gap” or “race, gender and wage gap” or other keywords that describe your personal interests (e.g., a specific state, country, race/ethnicity, age, career field, etc.) to find reports and statistics about wages.

Summarize your findings—include a link to the report or reports and discuss what you found. What insights do you have about gender and wages? What were trends or patterns that you noticed? Explain. What steps can be taken to close existing wage gaps in the workforce in general or in specific careers? Include APA Style in-text citations from Unit 8 readings that support your point of view in your response.

Peer Engagement

Remember to circle back and substantively respond to two classmates by the due date specified in the syllabus and course calendar. Your peer engagement posts must go beyond summarizing and praising. To aid you in this endeavor, incorporate one or more of the following lines of thinking in your peer engagement posts, ensuring both a hearty, meaningful conversation and that your work meets criteria for substance and depth:

· Consider one of the takeaways your peer described in their Part 1 and offer your thoughts on why that concept is important and ground that takeaway in your own observations.

· Compare/contrast your research into labor market statistics with that your peer discussed, bring those together to form some strong conclusions, basing them in the context of what you learned this unit.

· Your peer offered some steps to remedy the issue they noted in their reporting. Do you have any other suggestions? Support them with evidence if you do.

· Make sure you do at least one of the above, but you may also use this as an opportunity to say goodbye to your peers and thank them for their engagement during the course!
