The Insight Problem Scenarios I chose was scenario 1 closet light. The process I used consists
of me flipping the first light switch on and then opening the door to see if that switch turns
the light on. If the first switch did not turn the light on, I would then turn the first switch back
off and attempt to try the 2nd switch. If the 2nd switch does not turn the light on, then the
3rd switch must control the light. I would then flip the 3rd switch to turn on the
light. According to the college of the canyons when you are presented with a
problem whether it is a complex mathematical problem or a broken printer, before finding a
solution to the problem, the problem must first be clearly identified. After that, one of many
problem-solving strategies can be applied, hopefully resulting in a solution (College of the
Canyons. (n.d.). After completing this assignment, I used the trial-and-error method to figure
out which light switch controls the light.
A heuristic example occurs in my everyday life, when choosing a gas station to put gas in my
car. I normally try to figure out which gas stations have cheap gas before I drive across
town by either comparing gas prices, traffic and the distance to get there. This differed from
the insight problem scenario I chose because heuristics rely on mental shortcuts and speed
rather than trying multiple solutions until one works. The heuristics method is you working
backwards to take short cuts.
An algorithmic example occurred when I tried to make a chocolate German cake. I have
never made this type of cake before. I had to follow the cake recipe step by step in order for
the cake to come out good. This algorithmic method is different from the method I use in the
closet light scenario. In the algorithm, I follow a recipe step by step to make the cake. In the

OBJECTIFICATION AND OPPOSITIONAL
IDENTITY
In Week 2, you learned about stigma and privilege. Privilege results in preferential treatment, and
stigma results in negative treatment. Stigma involves objectification, or treating people as if they
are objects and members of a category rather than as individuals. In the A Class Divided video clip,
you saw the teacher Jane Elliott use an exercise in her third grade classroom to teach students
about discrimination. She used discrimination as the overarching term. Here discrimination
includes objectification, stigma, and privilege. When people encounter discrimination, they may
redefine their identity. In this Discussion, you will consider how identity can be redefined as a
result of objectification. In addition, you will address the concept of oppositional identity, which
occurs when individuals embrace the way they are objectified and act in a way that reinforces the
objectification.
To prepare for this Discussion:
Review the "Framework Essay" in Section I in the course text and the article "Why Are All the
Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria?" Pay particular attention to the discussion
regarding objectification and oppositional identity.
Review the Frontline video clip, A Class Divided. Look for examples of objectification and
oppositional identity in the clip.
Consider how objectification and oppositional identity influenced students in Jane Elliott's
exercise to redefine their racial and ethnic identities.

PROBLEM SOLVING
Each day, you face problems that require solutions. Some are incremental, solved step by step,
like math problems. Others are insight problems, which often need a sudden realization to
resolve. This week focuses on how individuals approach challenges through an exploration of
problem-solving strategies—insight, heuristic, and algorithm. In this Discussion, you will
describe how you approached and solved an insight problem. You will also compare the three
strategies and share personal examples of using them to solve real-life problems.

The Insight Problem Scenarios I chose was scenario 1 closet light. The process I used consists
of me flipping the first light switch on and then opening the door to see if that switch turns
the light on. If the first switch did not turn the light on, I would then turn the first switch back
off and attempt to try the 2nd switch. If the 2nd switch does not turn the light on, then the
3rd switch must control the light. I would then flip the 3rd switch to turn on the
light. According to the college of the canyons when you are presented with a
problem whether it is a complex mathematical problem or a broken printer, before finding a
solution to the problem, the problem must first be clearly identified. After that, one of many
problem-solving strategies can be applied, hopefully resulting in a solution (College of the
Canyons. (n.d.). After completing this assignment, I used the trial-and-error method to figure
out which light switch controls the light.
A heuristic example occurs in my everyday life, when choosing a gas station to put gas in my
car. I normally try to figure out which gas stations have cheap gas before I drive across
town by either comparing gas prices, traffic and the distance to get there. This differed from
the insight problem scenario I chose because heuristics rely on mental shortcuts and speed
rather than trying multiple solutions until one works. The heuristics method is you working
backwards to take short cuts.
An algorithmic example occurred when I tried to make a chocolate German cake. I have
never made this type of cake before. I had to follow the cake recipe step by step in order for
the cake to come out good. This algorithmic method is different from the method I use in the
closet light scenario. In the algorithm, I follow a recipe step by step to make the cake. In the

OBJECTIFICATION AND OPPOSITIONAL
IDENTITY
In Week 2, you learned about stigma and privilege. Privilege results in preferential treatment, and
stigma results in negative treatment. Stigma involves objectification, or treating people as if they
are objects and members of a category rather than as individuals. In the A Class Divided video clip,
you saw the teacher Jane Elliott use an exercise in her third grade classroom to teach students
about discrimination. She used discrimination as the overarching term. Here discrimination
includes objectification, stigma, and privilege. When people encounter discrimination, they may
redefine their identity. In this Discussion, you will consider how identity can be redefined as a
result of objectification. In addition, you will address the concept of oppositional identity, which
occurs when individuals embrace the way they are objectified and act in a way that reinforces the
objectification.
To prepare for this Discussion:
Review the "Framework Essay" in Section I in the course text and the article "Why Are All the
Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria?" Pay particular attention to the discussion
regarding objectification and oppositional identity.
Review the Frontline video clip, A Class Divided. Look for examples of objectification and
oppositional identity in the clip.
Consider how objectification and oppositional identity influenced students in Jane Elliott's
exercise to redefine their racial and ethnic identities.

PROBLEM SOLVING
Each day, you face problems that require solutions. Some are incremental, solved step by step,
like math problems. Others are insight problems, which often need a sudden realization to
resolve. This week focuses on how individuals approach challenges through an exploration of
problem-solving strategies—insight, heuristic, and algorithm. In this Discussion, you will
describe how you approached and solved an insight problem. You will also compare the three
strategies and share personal examples of using them to solve real-life problems.

The Insight Problem Scenarios I chose was scenario 1 closet light. The process I used consists
of me flipping the first light switch on and then opening the door to see if that switch turns
the light on. If the first switch did not turn the light on, I would then turn the first switch back
off and attempt to try the 2nd switch. If the 2nd switch does not turn the light on, then the
3rd switch must control the light. I would then flip the 3rd switch to turn on the
light. According to the college of the canyons when you are presented with a
problem whether it is a complex mathematical problem or a broken printer, before finding a
solution to the problem, the problem must first be clearly identified. After that, one of many
problem-solving strategies can be applied, hopefully resulting in a solution (College of the
Canyons. (n.d.). After completing this assignment, I used the trial-and-error method to figure
out which light switch controls the light.
A heuristic example occurs in my everyday life, when choosing a gas station to put gas in my
car. I normally try to figure out which gas stations have cheap gas before I drive across
town by either comparing gas prices, traffic and the distance to get there. This differed from
the insight problem scenario I chose because heuristics rely on mental shortcuts and speed
rather than trying multiple solutions until one works. The heuristics method is you working
backwards to take short cuts.
An algorithmic example occurred when I tried to make a chocolate German cake. I have
never made this type of cake before. I had to follow the cake recipe step by step in order for
the cake to come out good. This algorithmic method is different from the method I use in the
closet light scenario. In the algorithm, I follow a recipe step by step to make the cake. In the

OBJECTIFICATION AND OPPOSITIONAL
IDENTITY
In Week 2, you learned about stigma and privilege. Privilege results in preferential treatment, and
stigma results in negative treatment. Stigma involves objectification, or treating people as if they
are objects and members of a category rather than as individuals. In the A Class Divided video clip,
you saw the teacher Jane Elliott use an exercise in her third grade classroom to teach students
about discrimination. She used discrimination as the overarching term. Here discrimination
includes objectification, stigma, and privilege. When people encounter discrimination, they may
redefine their identity. In this Discussion, you will consider how identity can be redefined as a
result of objectification. In addition, you will address the concept of oppositional identity, which
occurs when individuals embrace the way they are objectified and act in a way that reinforces the
objectification.
To prepare for this Discussion:
Review the "Framework Essay" in Section I in the course text and the article "Why Are All the
Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria?" Pay particular attention to the discussion
regarding objectification and oppositional identity.
Review the Frontline video clip, A Class Divided. Look for examples of objectification and
oppositional identity in the clip.
Consider how objectification and oppositional identity influenced students in Jane Elliott's
exercise to redefine their racial and ethnic identities.

PROBLEM SOLVING
Each day, you face problems that require solutions. Some are incremental, solved step by step,
like math problems. Others are insight problems, which often need a sudden realization to
resolve. This week focuses on how individuals approach challenges through an exploration of
problem-solving strategies—insight, heuristic, and algorithm. In this Discussion, you will
describe how you approached and solved an insight problem. You will also compare the three
strategies and share personal examples of using them to solve real-life problems.
