The ecological perspective can be traced back to biological theories which explain how organisms adapt to their environments (Hutchison, 2013). It is often said that we are a product of our environment; we live what we learn. As we look at the Walls family that statement may not apply to all the family members. In social work practice, applying an ecological approach can be best understood as looking at persons, families, cultures, communities, policies, and to identify and intervene upon strengths and weaknesses in the transactional processes between these systems: complex relationships between living things and their environment, mutual dependence. Each part needs each other; each takes from and gives to the environment (Campbell, 2013).

The four main topics of the framework for ecological risk analysis describe would include problem formulation, the two parts of analysis the characterization of exposure, the characterization of effects and risk characterization (Environmental Protection Agency, 2002. Pgs 402-428). Problem formulation is when the risk managers work together to decide on the purpose of the assessment. They will review the sources, the stressor, and the effects that it will have. This is the first step to evaluate the strengths and limitations of the information.
(Thomas L. Crandell, 2009) Bronfenbrenner Ecological Systems Theory has many systems within the environment that interact with each other and shapes an individual’s development. The most basic of these systems is the Microsystem. The Microsystem is the innermost environmental layer. The micro system is the Layer closest to the child. This includes family, childcare, neighbourhood and school life.

Analysis Paper: Influence of the Ecological Model Liberty University COUN620 Dr. Hutton September 01, 2013 Abstract Urie Bronfenbrenner’s ecological theory of development is a theory that is relevant to the lives of all persons. A person’s development is affected by their environment and those relationships are how Bronferbrenner explained his five models of systems. Those models of systems include the microsystem, mesosystem, exosystem, macrosystem, and chronosystem. The five models of systems of the ecological theory are centered upon the relationships amongst the emerging individual and our continuously changing environmental systems. This paper explains how Bronfenbrenner’s ecological theory of development has shaped my development and how these levels influenced my decision to pursue my life’s passion.
• Next, create a utilitarian stakeholder analysis identifying the parties who have an interests in this case. Evaluate whether you need to add or subtract from this list. Attach it to your completed paper. (See “How to Construct a [Utilitarian] Stakeholder Analysis”) • Case Analysis: Examine your “decision list” and analyze your decision options from an ethical standpoint. Keep the stakeholders in mind.
In fact they are also considered as the ‘Original Ecologists’ (Fienup-Riordan P.9). The three main points that are put forward In the book are first, to analyze available informations on the lifeways, worldview, and ways of knowing of the Yupiaq people as they evolve over time. Second is the practice of science and technology and how it does or does not come into play in the context of education and schooling. Lastly, some implications of the study for the application of science and technology and the practice of schooling in a Yupiaq setting are outlined. ( Kawagley, P.5 ) It is indeed a fact that many of Yupiaq people especially the elders are sad about the emergence of modern technology in their communities and it is not very surprising due to the fact that they believe that things from the western world can destroy not only their land but also their culture.
This article gives an in depth look at the transcultural integrative decision-making model (ITM). The article includes the four steps that are used in the decision making process when using ITM. The article points out that this model takes cultural factors as part of the decision-making process. This article also reviews models such as rational, virtue ethics, collaborative, social constructivism, and integrative model. The article shows how the ITM model can be used in cases where cultural factors play a role in the ethical decision that is to be made.
Comparison Matrix Paper Danet Garcia Lopez Grand Canyon University LDR-800 Introduction The purpose of this paper is to make a comparison between empirical articles on leadership practices that relate to the ethical use power, authority and motivation. Along the lines of this paper, I am going to describe three articles in the areas mentioned. The first article is “Potential power and power use: An investigation of structure and behavior” by Daniel J .Brass and Marlene E. Burkhardt (1993). Brass and Burkhardt (1993) investigate the association among the configuration and performance and the probable collaboration effects on insights of influence in the organization. The second article used during this comparison paper is titled “Mutually
