<strong>Ashford</strong> <strong>ECE</strong> <strong>612</strong> <strong>Week</strong> 1 <strong>Discussion</strong> 2 <strong>Jasmine’s</strong> <strong>Case</strong> <strong>Study</strong><br />

<strong>Jasmine’s</strong> <strong>Case</strong> <strong>Study</strong>. Jasmine, a teacher for toddlers, is scheduled to start her day in the classroom at 6:30<br />

a.m. On Monday, Jasmine arrived at 6:45, and on Tuesday, she showed up at 7:05. Today, Jasmine appeared<br />

at 6:50. <strong>Jasmine’s</strong> team-teacher is frazzled, and parents are tired of waiting to talk with Jasmine. The director<br />

needs to finish a grant application, but is distracted by having to fill in for Jasmine to cover teacher-student<br />

ratios. As Jasmine breezes through the classroom door, she says, “Just change my starting time to 7:00 a.m.<br />

because I can get here by 7:00, no problem!”<br />

The director responds, “Jasmine, arrive in time to be in the classroom with the children at 6:30 a.m. If I bend<br />

the rules for you, I have to bend them for everyone.” Jasmine is upset and begins complaining about all the<br />

burdens of her personal life: battery trouble with her 1991 Chevy, a sick daughter, boyfriend problems, and<br />

worrying about her mother with Alzheimer’s. Jasmine reminds the director how punctual she was before her<br />

husband divorced her and she started feeling depressed.<br />

What would you do as <strong>Jasmine’s</strong> director?<br />

Referencing the specific decision-making strategies outlined in the assigned reading, present a response<br />

to <strong>Jasmine’s</strong> situation of adhering to the “letter of the law” and a response to <strong>Jasmine’s</strong> situation adhering to<br />

the “spirit of the law.” Next, explain which you would use from the perspective of the center director/<strong>Jasmine’s</strong><br />

supervisor. Include an evaluation of <strong>Jasmine’s</strong> situation from your assigned interpretation of policy as well as<br />

an action plan for its resolution.<br />

Guided Response: Review several of your classmates’ posts and analyze their responses. Choose at least<br />

one classmate who used the opposing response and one who is in agreement with your approach. Provide<br />

recommendations to extend their thinking. Challenge your classmates by asking a question that may cause<br />

them to reevaluate or add components to how they would handle <strong>Jasmine’s</strong> situation.
