Baudelaire writes about his visions (134) of modernity, which have accurately progressed to our own modern day. In one of his visions, the poem The Eyes of the Poor, Baudelaire describes two lovers sitting at a caf, on the boulevard and their different views of a poor family and how it affects the males view of his lover, leading him to an eventual feeling of hatred towards her.
- What does the boulevard represent in the context of modernity?
- Please use examples from the book to support your argument.

Assignment: Final Project
The sign of an effective clinician is the ability to identify the criteria that distinguish the diagnosis from any other possibility (otherwise known as a differential diagnosis). An ambiguous clinical diagnosis can lead to a faulty course of treatment and hurt the client more than it helps. In this Assignment, using the DSM-5 and all of the skills you have acquired to date, you assess a client.
This is a culmination of learning from all the weeks covered so far.
To prepare: Use a differential diagnosis process and analysis of the Mental Status Exam in The Case of L to determine if the case meets the criteria for a clinical diagnosis.
Then by Sunday night, Please submit a 4 to 5 page paper in which you:
- Provide the full DSM-5 diagnosis. Remember, a full diagnosis should include the name of the disorder, ICD-10-CM code, specifiers, severity, and the Z codes (other conditions that may need clinic

Discussion: Task Groups
Group work is a commonly used method within school settings. Because peer interaction is important in the emotional and social development of children, the task group can serve as a wonderful therapeutic setting and tool; however, many factors should be considered when implementing this type of intervention.
For this Discussion, read the Van Velsor (2009) article.
By Day 3
Post your understanding of task groups as an intervention for children. Use the model for effective problem solving to compare and contrast (how to identify the problem, develop goals, collect data). How does this model differ from a traditional treatment group? What are the advantages and possible disadvantages of this model? Describe how you might use this model for adults. What populations would most benefit from this model?
