Peer Discussion 1 (H. Simonds)
Milestones
There are a couple of methods to test Cognitive milestones. What are cognitive milestones? Cherry (2017) mentions cognitive milestones are based on a child’s ability to think, learn and solve problems. Cherry (2017) also mentions that an example of this is an infant learning how to respond to facial expressions and a preschooler learning the alphabet (Cherry 2017). There are many different cognitive skills for each age. Accoring to Broderick (2014) “Newborn-1 month facial expressions, 1-3 months is coos and grunts, 3-5 months is smiles and shows interest in favorite people, 6-7 months is babbling, 9-12 months is reaches or points to indicate desired object and responds to simple requests, 13-18 months 50 words for familiar actions, 18-24 months increases vocabulary rapidly 3 words a day, 2-3 years speaks clearly enough to be understood by family members”(Broderick 2014 p.101). These are just a few examples of cognitive skills.
Testing
A couple of tests for cognitive milestones are scaffolding and object permanence. Berk (2015) mentions that the potential development refers to a range of tasks that the child cannot handle doing alone just yet but can do with the help of someone who is skilled enough to do it. Think about how a sensitive you are anoter adult introduces a child to a new activity. You or another adult pick a task that the child can master but that is challenging enough that the child cannot do it by his/herself. You or another adult guides and supports, adjusting the level of support offered to fit the child’s current level of performance. As the child joins in the interaction and picks up mental strategies, her competence increases, and the adult steps back, permitting the child to take more responsibility for the task. This is a form of teaching known as scaffolding (Berk 2015 p. 222).
According to Gross (2012) “One of the best-known examples of the development of sensorimotor intelligence is object permanence, Piaget’s term for infants’ gradually developing understanding that objects continue to exist even when they are not in sensory or motor contact with them. Piaget tested object permanence by placing an ordinary object (his pocketwatch) under a blanket. He noted that, unless some part of the watch remained visible, Stage 3 infants typically failed to lift up the blanket and retrieve the hidden object”(Gross 2012 p. 204).
The Global Harmonization System of Classification and Labeling of Chemical Substances (GHS)
1. The Global Harmonization System of Classification and Labeling of Chemical Substances (GHS) has been adopted by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the Department of Transportation (DOT).
a. What is the GHS?
b. Why was the GHS developed?
c. Describe the GHS classification system?
d. What is the format for the GHS Safety Data Sheet (SDS)?
e. In your opinion, what are the benefits and drawbacks of this system?
Your response must be at least 75 words in length.
2. A recent industrial facility released lead into the surrounding soil. Soil sampling results indicated the area impacted with lead above action levels is 30 feet by 55 feet. The depth of the lead contamination plume is three feet below ground surface. The land owner wanted to clean this site for future development. Using your textbook, answer the questions below to help you prepare a cost estimate for this portion of the project. Your solutions and any assumptions to justify your estimate must be shown.
a. What is the chemical symbol of lead, and what group/family does it belong to?
b. Solve for the minimum volume of soil that will be excavated in cubic yards?
c. If each dump truck can transport 18 cubic yards, determine how many dump trucks loads will be transported? For calculation purposes, add a 15% “fluff factor” (add to the volume that will be transported).
d. If the bulk density of soil is 1350 kg/m3 (84.3 lb/ft3), solve for the weight of the soil that will be transported to a disposal site in kilograms.
Your total response to parts a-d must be at least 75 words in length.
3. The United Nations Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS) was developed to promote the sound management of chemicals. This is an agreed upon management approach, but regulatory authorities in countries adopting the GHS will implement the system according to their own regulatory processes. After reflecting on the aspects of chemical management that the GHS system covers, describe how you believe the GHS system will affect you or others in your field as you perform your various job functions. Your journal entry must be at least 200 words. No references or citations are necessary.

Should the drinking age be lowered to 18
Should the Drinking Age Be Lowered?
My issue with lowering the drinking age is simple it shouldn’t be lowered matter of fact it should be higher. I believe they should have more security guards around places that sell alcoholic beverages, and they should be even stricter on who they allow to buy theses beverages. Why? Because not only are the young adults getting their hands on these alcoholic beverages, but some how they are also being provided to middle and high school students. We as their older generation should take a stand not because we don’t want them to have fun, but because we care about our younger generation.
We should try to protect our youth they are not mature enough to handle the excitement that comes along with drinking. I can truly say that if we lower the drinking age then the world could only image the catastrophes that we are going to endure. I believe that we should hear more about students graduating then having funerals. The legal age for drinking now is 21 years old and yet we have experienced more underage drinking fatalities than anything else, so let’s not bury our children lets protect them by making the age to drink higher.
- Allowing 18- to 20-year-olds to drink alcohol in regulated environments with supervision would decrease unsafe drinking activity.
- What’s interesting or helpful about this view?
The most interesting thing is they believe that it will decrease unsafe drinking activities.
- What would I notice if I believed this view?
I would notice that more young adults drinking in bars and restaurants
- In what sense or under what conditions might this idea be true?”
This Idea might be true under the condition that the young adults knew how to control their self while being under the influence.
- There are fewer drunk driving traffic accidents and fatalities in many countries with MLDA of 18.
- What’s interesting or helpful about this view?
What’s interesting is that statistics is trying to compare the 1980s to the 2000 century people then were extremely different then now.
- What would I notice if I believed this view?
I would notice more maturity from the young adults that would understand drinking and driving is against the law. I would also notice less fatal accidents and more graduates.
- In what sense or under what conditions might this idea be true?”
This would be considered true if this was the 1980s
- Drinking alcohol is an enjoyable activity.
- What’s interesting or helpful about this view?
The most interesting part about this view is that they think we as people are trying to prevent 18-20-year old’s from enjoying the activity of drinking.
- What would I notice if I believed this view?
I would probably notice more parties or more young adults at bars having fun
- In what sense or under what conditions might this idea be true?”
This whole statement is true drinking is an enjoyable activity especially when you know when and where to enjoy it.
