1. We are told from childhood onward that everything we want to do is impossible.
2. We are afraid of hurting those around us by abandoning everything in order to pursue our dream, and therefore believe we must forsake our dream for love.
3. We fear the defeats we will meet on the path.
4. We fear to realize (i.e., achieve) the dream for which we fought all our lives.
Apply these four principles to Santiago’s story. How did they affect his journey? Or, if applicable, how did he resist allowing them to affect his journey?
Listening Journal
1. Keep a listening journal for a day. This will help you answer the questions for the assignment below. For your listening journal:
During your waking hours, note what you have been listening to each hour of the day.
You may have been listening to several different sources or people during the course of an hour. If so, was it primarily a lecture? Were you listening to music or TV? Were you listening to someone during conversation?
In addition to noting what you were listening to, evaluate how effectively you listened. Rate your listening on a scale of 1 to 10 (1 = not effective, 10 = very effective) for each one-hour interval. This is a thinking exercise. The actual writing comes in step 3.
Record your Listening Journal entries so that you can refer to them later in this activity.
2. In your textbook, go to Chapter 5 to learn about the four listening styles (Task, Relational, Analytical, and Critical). Once you familiarize yourself with these four styles, please complete the following exercises located in this download: Click this for chapter scan (from earlier edition of this text) https://mycourses.spcollege.edu/content/enforced/3…
Chapter 5 Assess Your Skill Assessing Your Listening Style
Record your results to all four survey questions so that you can refer to them later in this activity.
3. Go the Listening Journal discussion topic, and post a new Thread in which you share the following information:
Using the results of your Listening Journal from step 1 above, write a short summary describing what you listened to while you kept your listening journal, how much time you spent listening, and your self-assessment of how effectively you listened during the day.
Using the results of your Assessing Your Listening Style self-survey from step 2 above, write a short summary of the implications of your listening style for you and your listening behavior. As you write your summary, consider these questions:Do you have one predominate listening style, or do you have more than one style? What factors might influence why you may have more than one primary listening style?
How does your listening style(s) influence your conversations with your friends, family members or others? Does your preferred listening style suggest that you are more comfortable in specific listening situations? Based on your listening style, which listening situations do you sometimes avoid?
What are ways you might determine what listening style others may have? How might their verbal or nonverbal behavior give you clues as to their listening style?
What are specific listening situations in which it would be useful to adopt a listening style that is not your predominate listening style?
Which listening styles might you wish to enhance? What would be advantages to developing greater flexibility in using a variety of listening styles?

RE: Week 3 Discussion
Explain why an increase in sample size will reduce the probability of a type II error, but such an increase will not impact the probability of a type I error.
When I think of a hypothesis, what comes to my mind first is the science projects I used to do when I was in middle and high school. Hypothesis testing is the process used to evaluate the strength of evidence from the sample and provides a framework for making determinations related to the population. The investigator formulates a specific hypothesis, evaluates data from the sample, and uses the data to decide whether they support the particular hypothesis. A good hypothesis must be based on a good research question. It shouldn’t be a long, drawn-out question. Instead, it should be specific, simple, and stated in advance.
Testing begins by considering two hypotheses. These hypotheses viewpoints are opposing:
Null hypothesis- there is no association between the outcome and the predictor variables in the population.
Alternative hypothesis-describes the existence of an association and is typically what the investigator would like to show.
Since the alternative and null hypotheses are contrary, you must examine evidence to determine if you have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis or not. The evidence is in the sample data form.
An investigator’s conclusions can be wrong. At times, a sample may not be representative of the population. A type I error, also known as a false positive, occurs of an investigator rejects a null hypothesis that is true in the population. A type II error, also known as a false negative, occurs if the investigator fails to reject a null hypothesis that is false in the population (Banerjee,Chitnis,Jadhav,Bhawalkar, Chaudhury, 2009). Type I and Type II errors can not be avoided, but an investigator can reduce the likelihood of the happening by increasing the sample size. The larger the sample size, the lesser is the probability that it will differ substantially from the population.
The chances that a study will be able to detect an association between an outcome variable and a predictor variable depends on the size of the target population. If the sample size is large, it will be easy to detect. If the sample size is small, it will be more challenging to detect in the sample. When the investigator chooses the size of the association he would like to detect in the sample, the quantity is known as the effect size.
The probability of committing a type I error is called alpha or the level of statistical significance. The probability of making a type II error is called beta. The quantity of beta is called power (Davis
