What were your initial reactions when you learned that this course consisted of an overarching team project? Did you have any concerns about working in a team?
In general, teamwork and collaboration is viewed as a stressful endeavor. In fact, many students and professionals feel that they can complete work better, faster, and quicker on their own. Many might even shy away from the opportunity to collaborate with others for fear of time constraints, miscommunication, conflicting views, and incivility among group members. However, the value of collaboration truly outshines any perceived negative barriers. In particular, collaboration gives educators the opportunity to enrich curriculum with the expertise and experiences of a group of professionals. It also pushes each educator to think “outside of the box” to incorporate innovative strategies, views, and learning opportunities. In fact, the days of one instructor developing a course are being quickly phased out by collaborative approaches. Many of today’s institutions require a panel of experts to creatively and critically collaborate on course development. As such, it is imperative that you begin to understand not only how to work effectively in a team but also how to overcome common barriers that can occur during the team collaboration process.
To prepare:• Reflect on your team’s collaborative process. What barriers has your team experienced? How have you and others in your team worked to overcome these barriers? If you believe that your team has not experienced any barriers or difficulties, reflect on common barriers presented in this week’s Learning Resources.• How could these strategies be used to help nurse educators? In addition,
Questions to be addressed in my paper:
1. Review the article “Overcoming Challenges to Collaboration: Nurse Educators’ Experiences in Curriculum Change” uploaded below. Consider the benefits of and barriers to team collaboration.2. Select one barrier that has a significant influence on a team approach to curriculum development.3. An explanation of a barrier that can significantly influence a team approach to curriculum development and why.4. Search the Walden Library or in the internet to identify an article that presents strategies for overcoming your selected barrier. Describe two strategies you could implement to overcome this barrier, as well as how these strategies could help increase postive team collaboration.5. How could these two strategies be used to help nurse educators?6. Justify your response by citing references to this week’s Learning Resources and your selected article as appropriate.

Ancient Greek Athletics; the Athenian Acropolis; Theater” Please respond to the following: Discussion reply In Chapter 4, pp. 111-112 and 116, there is discussion of the rise of the city-state of Sparta and its very militaristic social organization, and then a discussion of the ancient Olympics. The Olympics were apparently an all-male event, but there were many other local and regional Greek festivals involving athletic contests. Now, see this “running girl” item (from Sparta) at the British Museum: . Analyze what this tells you of the female status in some Greek city-states, especially Sparta, and also about Greek athletics. In Chapter 5, see pp. 140-148 in our class text for discussion and images of the Athenian Acropolis and the art that was once there. On pp. 142-3, the Closer Look shows a photo of the Parthenon today and an artistic cutaway showing what some of the parts are designated and what they once looked like. Fig. 5.5 has a nice image of a model of the ancient Acropolis to see what it once looked like. Fig. 5.8 shows what the statue of Athena in the Parthenon once looked like. Figs. 5.9-to-5.11 are photos of some of the Elgin Marbles – still in the British Museum. Watch this video from the British Museum and its vast collection related to this: . Even better, now watch a great video of a digital reconstruction at . Finally, see pp. 151-156 about the ancient Greek theater, some of which could seat 15-20,000 and yet have great acoustics. After doing these tasks, discuss here two (2) specific items or informational bits that you learned, and suggest their significance to ancient Greek culture and the western heritage in the arts. Then, comment on the plot of the ancient comedy Lysistrata (p. 152) and how it might go over as a play today.
Matt Lauer discusses the Ancient Greek island of Delos, the mythic birthplace of the gods Apollos and Artemis and a centerpiece of Ancient Greece. Why were the gods important to Ancient Greece?

preview of the answer… From the fact that only males were allowed to participate in Athletics in Greek, seeing a “running girl” is a rare occurrence. From this statement, it is evident that female status in some Greek city-states was greatly downgraded. Women were only allowed to participate in other activities that did not relate to sports in one way or another. Though many states downgraded the importance of women participating in athletics
