2:45 p.m.        Carolyn House                                   "Beautiful Bears: Preschooler's Ideas of

(Curriculum & Instruction)                 What Makes a Picture Beautiful?'

Sponsor: Audrey C. Rule
 

This study qualitatively examines preschool children's ideas about book illustrations they regard as beautiful. To control variables, the subject matter of illustrations used in the study was limited to bears. Interviews with preschoolers reveal preferences of book illustrations and influences upon choices. With regard to the early stages of aesthetic development, data indicate the value of integrating visual arts with social and cognitive education. Educators are encouraged to design appealing and effective curriculum that combine child development with school readiness expectations.

Our group will be representing MBA 516, International Business, on the topic of  “Cultural Differences and Ethics.”  Specifically, we will be presenting the theoretical aspects that coincide with different cultures and how they affect their Ethical practices.  We will also be doing this using case studies and other examples to illustrate these differences.  One aspect of our program is how cultural differences create ethical dilemmas.  What certain cultures would view as acceptable behavior, other cultures may view as immoral.  We will also include the importance of Social Structure, Language and Communication, and Values and Attitudes of different cultures and how they affect ethics in different cultures.
