Often, policymakers develop policies in response to a recent societal problem or event. Whereas some societal problems, such as homelessness, unemployment, and poverty, require long-term policy development and refinement, society sometimes demands immediate policy implementation in response to events or problems that proved dangerous for society at large. For example, the U.S. terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, and the subsequent terrorist threats heightened airport security and created item restrictions for airplane carry-on luggage. Over time, policymakers adjusted these policies as the danger appeared less imminent due to the development of other policies. What policies are you aware of that policymakers developed in response to a societal problem or event? Are those policies effective responses to the problems or events? If not, how might you change them in order to make them more effective? For this Discussion , review this week’s resources. Using reputable news and education sources, search for an event that led to the formation of a social policy. Then, consider what changes you might make to the policy that resulted from this event. Finally, think about the role of social work (as a profession and political lobby) in the formation of the policy. By Day 3 Post a brief explanation of the event you selected that led to the formation of a social policy. Then, explain what changes you would make to the policy that resulted from this event and why. Finally, explain the role of social work (as a profession and political lobby) in the formation of the policy. .

Discussion 2
As a social worker, you will often work with clients that are perceived as "others." This "otherness" often leads to marginalization and barriers or limitations promoted by society and social institutions. Marginalization is arguably the most dangerous form of oppression (Adams, 2013) because it eventually leads to social expulsion and material deprivation. Social work is a unique profession because it empowers those who are affected by the socially constructed barriers and biases that have perpetuated long-standing inequalities. As you begin your work with clients both as an intern and social worker, it is imperative to consider not only the individual (micro) concerns the client brings to the session but the environmental or macro factors that may have either created or perpetuated the concern. You can empower your clients by helping them identify and define the oppression they experienced throughout their lifetime. Social work's commitment to social justice includes a hyperawareness of the social constructions that are used to limit some groups' autonomy and viability while supporting others. By Day 3 Post an analysis of the dimensions of oppression and marginalization that might impact your future clients. Be specific in identifying the types of clients with whom you might work. In your analysis, explain how the concepts of multiculturalism, power, and privilege are relevant to social work practice.

IntroductionSeptember 11, 2001, is a day that few will forget..docx
Introduction
September 11, 2001, is a day that few will forget. Among other things, it marked the reality of terrorism and the global reach of crime in America, even though other such acts had occurred prior to 9-11. This week, the last in the course, continues to focus on "crime in the modern world," specifically on drug and public order crimes, varieties of terrorism, the impact of globalization on crime and criminal activity including global or transnational crime, and "high-tech" crimes. And, as you come to the end of your journey in this course, you step back and consider the "so what" of the social problems and social responsibility perspectives you have analyzed and applied - that is, the impact or effect one perspective or another has in the actual creation and adoption of policy and the approaches and actions taken to prevent and control crime.

Question 1When it comes to disasters, some contend that governme.docx
Question 1
When it comes to disasters, some contend that governments still largely play the role of arriving like the cavalry after the fact. Assuming this might be at least partially true, how can emergency management policies (local, state and/or federal) be more proactive? What barriers, if any, to such proposals might exist? (For instance, should local jurisdictions consider additional efforts to regulate building, land-use, development, and other activities that may cause hazards and/or increase risk to members of the community? What lessons should we learn from the flooding that took place in South Carolina in 2015?)
Question 2
Define in your own words the term “benchmarking” used in our textbook and compare it to the terms “lessons learned” or “best practices”, which are often used in emergency management. Include at least one example that you think represents one or more of these terms.
Question 3
Your response to each of the questions below should be at least one brief paragraph.
After reading the South Carolina Public Incident Report, consider how recent large data security breaches affects public administration.
a.) How would you recommend improving policy and practice with regard to information security? (At least one paragraph)
b.) Provide a statement of the problem and at least two recommendations; support your points with additional detail and references (in APA Style). (At least one paragraph)
Question 4 https://www.ecfr.gov/cgi-bin/ECFR website to external link
After reading Chapter 11 in the textbook, go to the online Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site., which is the compendium of federal agency regulations.

Challenges Posed by DemocracyThe early weeks of this course emphas.docx
Challenges Posed by Democracy
The early weeks of this course emphasized the integral role that processes play in democratic governance. While democratic processes are important to democratic governance, they are sometimes slow and messy and may seem to be an impediment more than a means for resolving society’s problems. In addition, the daily operations of the democratic system create challenges to its very existence. Particular issues and challenges also may place a strain on democracy. One example is the tension between liberty and safety related to individual rights and personal security. Both issues highlight elements of founding democratic principles, yet they conflict and demonstrate discord within the microcosm of democracy. As a student of governance and public policy, it is important that you are aware of how challenges within democracy might impact day-to-day governance and policy making. Understanding these challenges may be helpful as you develop strategies to surmount them as they arise.
To prepare for this Discussion:
Review the media piece “Perspectives on the World Speaker Series: Politics in an Age of Partisanship with Christine Todd Whitman” and think about the role of partisan politics in democratic governance. Also, consider the conflict between partisan politics and policy making and how partisanship might impact policy making in a democratic government.
Think about how the democratic process might hamper or challenge policy making and consider strategies that might be used to overcome those challenges.
Revisit the Constitution of the United States (located in the Week 3 Learning Resources) to review democratic principles. Think about conflicts that may exist among those principles.
Peruse the Internet, periodicals, or other current sources of information for current policy issues on the public agenda.
Select a current policy issue (other than the one in the media piece) that poses a challenge to governance and/or public policy.
Think about how democracy poses a challenge to resolving the policy issue by means of governance and/or public policy.
Reflect on how we might overcome some of the limitations of democracy.
With these thoughts in mind:
Post by Day 3
a brief description of the policy issue you selected. Explain how democracy poses a challenge to the resolution of the issue by means of governance and/or public policy. Be specific and provide examples to illustrate your explanation. Explain how the democratic challenges to the resolution of that issue might be overcome.

Issues relevant to the public agenda may be broad in nature, affecti.docx
Issues relevant to the public agenda may be broad in nature, affecting society at large, or they may emerge from concerns affecting a specific community. They may appear to be common problems that could be solved through public policy or legislation. Many contentious political issues have their origins in one or more of the basic concepts and principles of democracy. If you take a close look at the headlines of a leading newspaper or newsmagazine, you are likely to find several stories about issues relating to democratic concepts, such as freedom or equality, or principles, such as the proper role of government in society. How democratic concepts and principles intersect with public agenda items is an important matter to consider when studying democratic governance.
To prepare for this Discussion:
Review the article “Democracy and Equality” in this week’s Learning Resources. Think about how democracy might influence the public agenda.
Review the article “The Universal Declaration of Human Rights” in this week’s Learning Resources. Reflect on how the articles of the declaration are related to democratic concepts and principles and how these might play out in the public agenda.
Review the articles “Property” and “The Right to Private Property” in this week’s Learning Resources. Using this concept as an example, consider how concepts and principles of property influence public agenda.
Peruse current newspapers, magazines, or online news sources and take note of which articles relate to democratic concepts and principles.
Select a public agenda item related to your specialization or an area with which you are familiar.
Think about how concepts and principles of democracy impact the agenda item you selected.
Consider ways in which democratic concepts and principles shape the public agenda in general.
With these thoughts in mind:
Post by Day 5
a brief description of the public agenda item you selected. Then, explain how two or more concepts or principles of democracy impact that public agenda item. Finally, share your thoughts about ways in which democratic concepts and principles shape the public agenda. Be specific.

Assessing 9/11
September 11, 2001, is an example that the United States is not immune to the violence of extremist organizations. Despite the obvious emotional attachment many have to that day, it can be used as a learning tool to develop risk assessment and management programs. Many entities were involved in risk assessment leading to the 9/11 events, demonstrating that risk management outcomes within one institution can affect other institutions.
Tasks:
For this assignment, identify an organization whose risk assessment had an impact on the events of 9/11. You may, consider the risk assessment polices of federal organizations such as the FBI and CIA, as well as local law enforcement, or individual companies risk management plans.
Research events leading to the 9/11 attacks (i.e., were there any indicators and what was done with the information).
Identify successes or failures in the systematic risk assessment and management leading to the events of 9/11 and discuss alternatives you may have implemented if you were conducting the risk assessment.
Be sure to use all knowledge accumulated from the previous module (agency involvement and policies). Include topics presented in this module, such as assessments, proactive and reactive risk management, and the risk of terrorism.
Note
: The assignment should be 2–3 pages in length and double-spaced, and the font size should be 12 point. In addition to the 2–3-page assignment, be sure to include a references page in APA format.

Discussion Question Looking over the next five years, in your op.docx
Discussion Question: Looking over the next five years, in your opinion, what will be the single greatest threat to the nation’s homeland security posture? Explain the reasoning for your selection. How well does DHS’ Fiscal Years 2014-2018 Strategic Plan address this threat?
Instructions: Fully utilize the materials that have been provided to you in order to support your response. Your initial post should be at least 350 words.
Lesson
Week Eight – Risk, Threat and Consequence in the Future
Predicting the future is an activity frequently fraught with uncertainty. Still, it is an activity that those of us who find ourselves within the homeland security enterprise must constantly engage in. Whether it’s those within the intelligence, the emergency response and emergency management communities, or those who might not be sure what role they play (such as academia or the business community), we all make decisions based upon what might occur in the future (whether that be the next moment, week, or years down the road). In addition, the input we provide and predictions we make impact others as well, whether that is our elected leaders who could utilize such information in their decision making process, or simply family members, coworkers, or students. Lastly, any steps taken moving forward must support the current National Preparedness Goal, which is:
A secure and resilient Nation with the capabilities required across the whole community to prevent, protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from the threats and hazards that pose the greatest risk. (DHS, 2015, p. 1)
Therefore, a balancing act of sorts must be taken that keeps an eye on present responsibilities and commitments, while looking ahead to what the future might hold. So in this our final week of class, we will look at factors likely to affect risk, threat and consequences for our communities in the future.
In 2010, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) launched the Strategic Foresight Initiative (SFI) as an ongoing effort to determine those factors that will impact risk factors in the nation as a whole and in our nation’s communities over the next 20 years. The SFI has resulted in the publication of a number of documents. Perhaps the most relevant to this current discussion is Crisis Response and Disaster Resilience 2030: Forging Strategic Action in an Age of Uncertainty. The information found within this report is a culmination of the efforts of literally hundreds of emergency management and homeland security professionals and practitioners. They admit that moving forward; there is both an increased complexity and decreased predictability related to the operating environment our nation will find itself addressing. Therefore, it would behoove us to seriously consider the issues they have highlighted and make needed changes where applicable.

The media pieces in this unit were selected to help you think about .docx
The media pieces in this unit were selected to help you think about the role that technology and social media play in the ways that society gives and how organizations ask for funds.
Do you remember where you were on September 11, 2001? Chances are that you, along with the rest of the world, watched the horror of that day unfold on national television. We did not have to wait for the evening news or the morning paper to see and know what had happened. It happened in front of our eyes.
Since that fateful day, there have been a number of disasters around the world; and there have been significant changes in the uses of technology and social media.
In this assignment, you will construct a timeline of global events that have happened since 9/11, and analyze the impact technology and social media have had to spread information, photographs, videos, etc. around the world and drive charitable giving.
What implications and opportunities do you see in the future for charitable fund development because of technology and, in particular, social media?
Your submitted assignment should be 5–7 pages in length, excluding the title and reference pages, and must follow APA guidelines. You must include references to at least three scholarly resources that are not part of the required readings for this course. Your writing should demonstrate effective communication, using proper spelling and grammar, and be appropriate for a doctoral level learner. Be sure that your assignment contains all of the following:
Title page.
Abstract.
Timeline of events in chronological order.
An evaluation of the role technology played in each event and how it influenced the way people gave.
An analysis of the future role of technology and social media in how nonprofit organizations will solicit and people will give in times of disaster.

Program Outcome Two Reflection Discussion
Discussion Topic
The Program Outcome Reflections project requires you to reflect on each of the five Public Safety Administration Program Outcomes demonstrating a comprehension of the concept(s), and indicating how the PSAD curriculum provided you the knowledge and skills (process or application of knowledge) to master the outcome.
You will address each outcome individually in a 250-word reflection posted as a discussion topic. You should respond to the postings of at least two fellow students. Reflections on the individual program outcomes will include:
· Your understanding of the concept;
· How you feel the curriculum provided you with the knowledge and skills to meet the outcome;
· What courses and activities in the curriculum addressed the concepts of the outcome.
The outcome for this assignment is:
· Use informed decision making, goal orientation, teamwork, ethical behavior, enhanced technology, and communications to ensure effective leadership in public safety administration.

· "Identifying and Structuring Problems" http://www.skillsyouneed.com/ips/problem-solving2.html
Module 2: Identify Issues or Challenges
Each public safety administrator needs to evaluate his or her environment to determine the major issues. Once identified, each issue must be analyzed, recommendations determined, and solutions implemented and reviewed. Your comprehensive case study capstone project will focus on each area.
Your first paper is an individual project where you will identify an issue or challenge. We have looked at issues facing public safety leaders. The most important point is to identify an issue or problem before it becomes an even bigger problem.
Many problems can be solved on an individual basis. For example, let's say the fire station doors are leaking. Possible solutions include patching the lea.

The last topic to be covered in this course is Chapter 14, Social Movements.
Choose to view one of the movies in this Unit, either
The Garden
(in English and somein Spanish with English subtitles) or
Holding Ground Parts 1 and 2.
Then consider the following social justice issues listed below that have impacted physiological, social, psychological and spiritual human behavior and development on the macro (societal) and mezzo (family and community) person and environmental dimensions of human functioning. These issues could serve as the foundation to the creation of a social movement in your local (city, small town), state, or federal level. Choose a topic that you have some passion for that you or others known to you have experienced. If you have your own topic, not on the list, check with the Instructor.
Some examples are:
Medical health care costs
Disability accessibility
Housing conditions (lack of or segregated sub-standard housing and rent)
Environmental air/ground conditions (e.g. sinkholes in a neighborhood, ground pollution causing birth defects, etc.)
Nutrition needs (e.g. hunger, poverty, etc.)
Political representation (e.g. lack of access to voter registration, municipal representation, or suppression)
Safety measures - (e.g. police profiling, lack of police patrols, neighborhood violence, racial violence)
Unemployment – e.g. layoffs, segregated workplaces by gender/race/age
Poverty – low income, lack of health insurance, lack of access to payment for medications.
High property taxes
Neglected or segregated schools
Banking and regulatory practices that may profile or discriminate against specified populations
Discriminatory practices involving vulnerable minority populations
Toxic air/water pollution
Conduct a literature review of 10 peer-reviewed sources to research the social justice aspects of your chosen issue and its consequences - e.g. physiological, political, social, psychological, and spiritual consequences on the macro (societal, community) and mezzo (family and community) personal and environmental dimensions. Integrate by way of in-text cited content the research findings into your paper’s content from the Hutchison text - e.g. Chapters 13 on Communities and Chapter 14 on Social Movement and from the supplemental sources. Instructions on how to write a literature review is posted under Assignments. (See above.)
Respond to the following:Explain historically how this issue came to be and the current conditions that are impacting on what specific population/s of people. Discuss the importance of your issue. “What are the two or three cultural frames that would motivate people to engage in collective action on this issue….How important do you think emotions are in motivating people to participate in [this] social movement activity (Hutchison, 2019, 450)?” Explain and support your rationale by way of in-text cited content.

Unit Lesson
Prior to the collapse of the economy in 1929 and the slide into the Great
Depression, it was up to individual states to take care of those who were
having economic problems. States themselves had few social welfare
programs, and it was seen as an
issue for charities and families to
take care of. Herbert Hoover was
noted for his unwillingness to help
the people and telling them to “pull
themselves up by their boot
straps.” The impact of the Great
Depression was such that the
people needed more, and Franklin
D. Roosevelt gave it to them in the
form of the New Deal Programs.
Before the New Deal, the
government dealt mostly in laissez-
faire economics, believing that
businesses should make all
production and distribution
decisions. The government did,
however, take part in big business
through such things as the Pacific
Railways Act of 1862, by regulating
the hours of women and children workers, and instituting worker safety rules.
After the New Deal, the federal government would enact more regulations to try
to gain more control over big business.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt (Goldensky, 1933)

One of the most important concepts in clinical practice and group wo.docx
One of the most important concepts in clinical practice and group work is confidentiality. All members of the group sign an informed consent form in order to address the rules and parameters of the group sessions. The rules regarding confidentiality are stated in one section of the form. Although every member must sign this agreement, ensuring that all information shared in the group remains confidential can be difficult. As the group leader, the clinical social worker is responsible for developing strategies so that all members feel safe to share.
For this Discussion, review the “Working With Groups: Latino Patients Living With HIV/AIDS” case study.
By Day 3
Post
strategies you might prefer to use to ensure confidentiality in a treatment group for individuals living with HIV/AIDS. Describe how informed consent addresses confidentiality in a group setting. How does confidentiality in a group differ from confidentiality in individual counseling? Also, discuss how you would address a breach of confidentiality in the group.

The support group discussed here was created to address the unique needs of a vulnerable population receiving services at an outpatient interdisciplinary comprehensive care center. The center’s mission was to provide medical and psychosocial services to adult patients living with HIV/AIDS (PLWH). Both patients and providers at the center expressed a need for a group to address the needs of the center’s Latino population. At the time the group was created, 36% of the center’s population identified as Latino, and 25% of this cohort identified Spanish as their primary language. The purpose of the group was twofold: 1) to reduce the social isolation felt by Latino patients at the center and 2) to create a culturally sensitive environm.

One could argue that old-fashioned attitudes regarding gender and t.docx
One could argue that old-fashioned attitudes regarding gender and "traditional" gender roles are becoming obsolete. In many parts of the world women head major corporations and hold high positions of power—positions historically seen as being of the male domain. In turn, many men freely choose to be "stay-at-home-dads" or enter professions that were once considered to be "feminine." Naturally, our contemporary views of gender and gender roles illustrate the social progress we have made as one human culture.
Yet, prehistoric and ancient works of art tell a different story—one that reinforces old-fashioned gender roles (and maybe for good reason). Prehistoric and ancient representations of gender illustrate the social norms of their periods. Naturally, these works of art were produced by people whose lives and values were quite different from ours. Yet, the views of gender presented by these works of art are, despite our contemporary sensibilities, are still very recognizable.
Write an essay that analyzes the representation of gender and gender roles as seen in

Digital Forensics
There are three primary goals with digital forensics:
Collect electronically stored information in a sound, defensible manner,
Analyze the results of the collections, and
Present the findings either in formal legal proceedings or less formally to inform a client.
Electronic evidence can be short-lived and fragile. It needs to be collected in a defensible, methodological manner to preserve it accurately, and to withstand scrutiny in legal proceedings. (chain of custody)
Electronic evidence can be highly probative, both as it appears to users, and behind the scenes. There is a lot of information that a computer user never sees (e.g. metadata, logs, registry entries). This behind-the-scenes evidence may provide a wealth of information about who did what when and where. Forensic analysts are trained to preserve, collect and interpret this kind of evidence.
Some digital files can be recovered, even if a user has tried to delete them.
Locate a famous case where digital forensics played a role, and share it with the class. Discuss how digital forensics was critical in cracking the case. Examples are listed below, but
you can’t use them – find your own.
Famous cases cracked with digital forensics
Be it a text message, Google searches or GPS information, a person’s digital footprint can provide plenty of ammunition in the courtroom. Here are a few cases where digital forensics played a critical role in bringing about justice
.
1. The BTK Killer, Dennis Rader
Perhaps the most famous case to be solved through digital forensics is that of
the BTK Killer Dennis Rader
, with “BTK” referring to his MO of “bind, torture and kill.” Rader enjoyed taunting police during his killing sprees in Wichita, KS. But this also proved to be his fatal flaw. A floppy disk Rader sent to police revealed his true identity. He was soon arrested, pled guilty and was put behind bars for life, much to the relief of his long-terrorized community.
2. Dr. Conrad Murray’s lethal prescriptions
Another recent case solved with digital forensics was that of
Dr. Conrad Murray, personal physician of Michael Jackson
. Digital forensics played a crucial role in the trial. After Jackson passed away unexpectedly in 20.

Assessing 9/11
September 11, 2001, is an example that the United States is not immune to the violence of extremist organizations. Despite the obvious emotional attachment many have to that day, it can be used as a learning tool to develop risk assessment and management programs. Many entities were involved in risk assessment leading to the 9/11 events, demonstrating that risk management outcomes within one institution can affect other institutions.
Tasks:
For this assignment, identify an organization whose risk assessment had an impact on the events of 9/11. You may, consider the risk assessment polices of federal organizations such as the FBI and CIA, as well as local law enforcement, or individual companies risk management plans.
Research events leading to the 9/11 attacks (i.e., were there any indicators and what was done with the information).
Identify successes or failures in the systematic risk assessment and management leading to the events of 9/11 and discuss alternatives you may have implemented if you were conducting the risk assessment.
Be sure to use all knowledge accumulated from the previous module (agency involvement and policies). Include topics presented in this module, such as assessments, proactive and reactive risk management, and the risk of terrorism.
Note
: The assignment should be 2–3 pages in length and double-spaced, and the font size should be 12 point. In addition to the 2–3-page assignment, be sure to include a references page in APA format.

Discussion Question Looking over the next five years, in your op.docx
Discussion Question: Looking over the next five years, in your opinion, what will be the single greatest threat to the nation’s homeland security posture? Explain the reasoning for your selection. How well does DHS’ Fiscal Years 2014-2018 Strategic Plan address this threat?
Instructions: Fully utilize the materials that have been provided to you in order to support your response. Your initial post should be at least 350 words.
Lesson
Week Eight – Risk, Threat and Consequence in the Future
Predicting the future is an activity frequently fraught with uncertainty. Still, it is an activity that those of us who find ourselves within the homeland security enterprise must constantly engage in. Whether it’s those within the intelligence, the emergency response and emergency management communities, or those who might not be sure what role they play (such as academia or the business community), we all make decisions based upon what might occur in the future (whether that be the next moment, week, or years down the road). In addition, the input we provide and predictions we make impact others as well, whether that is our elected leaders who could utilize such information in their decision making process, or simply family members, coworkers, or students. Lastly, any steps taken moving forward must support the current National Preparedness Goal, which is:
A secure and resilient Nation with the capabilities required across the whole community to prevent, protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from the threats and hazards that pose the greatest risk. (DHS, 2015, p. 1)
Therefore, a balancing act of sorts must be taken that keeps an eye on present responsibilities and commitments, while looking ahead to what the future might hold. So in this our final week of class, we will look at factors likely to affect risk, threat and consequences for our communities in the future.
In 2010, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) launched the Strategic Foresight Initiative (SFI) as an ongoing effort to determine those factors that will impact risk factors in the nation as a whole and in our nation’s communities over the next 20 years. The SFI has resulted in the publication of a number of documents. Perhaps the most relevant to this current discussion is Crisis Response and Disaster Resilience 2030: Forging Strategic Action in an Age of Uncertainty. The information found within this report is a culmination of the efforts of literally hundreds of emergency management and homeland security professionals and practitioners. They admit that moving forward; there is both an increased complexity and decreased predictability related to the operating environment our nation will find itself addressing. Therefore, it would behoove us to seriously consider the issues they have highlighted and make needed changes where applicable.

The media pieces in this unit were selected to help you think about .docx
The media pieces in this unit were selected to help you think about the role that technology and social media play in the ways that society gives and how organizations ask for funds.
Do you remember where you were on September 11, 2001? Chances are that you, along with the rest of the world, watched the horror of that day unfold on national television. We did not have to wait for the evening news or the morning paper to see and know what had happened. It happened in front of our eyes.
Since that fateful day, there have been a number of disasters around the world; and there have been significant changes in the uses of technology and social media.
In this assignment, you will construct a timeline of global events that have happened since 9/11, and analyze the impact technology and social media have had to spread information, photographs, videos, etc. around the world and drive charitable giving.
What implications and opportunities do you see in the future for charitable fund development because of technology and, in particular, social media?
Your submitted assignment should be 5–7 pages in length, excluding the title and reference pages, and must follow APA guidelines. You must include references to at least three scholarly resources that are not part of the required readings for this course. Your writing should demonstrate effective communication, using proper spelling and grammar, and be appropriate for a doctoral level learner. Be sure that your assignment contains all of the following:
Title page.
Abstract.
Timeline of events in chronological order.
An evaluation of the role technology played in each event and how it influenced the way people gave.
An analysis of the future role of technology and social media in how nonprofit organizations will solicit and people will give in times of disaster.

Program Outcome Two Reflection Discussion
Discussion Topic
The Program Outcome Reflections project requires you to reflect on each of the five Public Safety Administration Program Outcomes demonstrating a comprehension of the concept(s), and indicating how the PSAD curriculum provided you the knowledge and skills (process or application of knowledge) to master the outcome.
You will address each outcome individually in a 250-word reflection posted as a discussion topic. You should respond to the postings of at least two fellow students. Reflections on the individual program outcomes will include:
· Your understanding of the concept;
· How you feel the curriculum provided you with the knowledge and skills to meet the outcome;
· What courses and activities in the curriculum addressed the concepts of the outcome.
The outcome for this assignment is:
· Use informed decision making, goal orientation, teamwork, ethical behavior, enhanced technology, and communications to ensure effective leadership in public safety administration.

· "Identifying and Structuring Problems" http://www.skillsyouneed.com/ips/problem-solving2.html
Module 2: Identify Issues or Challenges
Each public safety administrator needs to evaluate his or her environment to determine the major issues. Once identified, each issue must be analyzed, recommendations determined, and solutions implemented and reviewed. Your comprehensive case study capstone project will focus on each area.
Your first paper is an individual project where you will identify an issue or challenge. We have looked at issues facing public safety leaders. The most important point is to identify an issue or problem before it becomes an even bigger problem.
Many problems can be solved on an individual basis. For example, let's say the fire station doors are leaking. Possible solutions include patching the lea.

The last topic to be covered in this course is Chapter 14, Social Movements.
Choose to view one of the movies in this Unit, either
The Garden
(in English and somein Spanish with English subtitles) or
Holding Ground Parts 1 and 2.
Then consider the following social justice issues listed below that have impacted physiological, social, psychological and spiritual human behavior and development on the macro (societal) and mezzo (family and community) person and environmental dimensions of human functioning. These issues could serve as the foundation to the creation of a social movement in your local (city, small town), state, or federal level. Choose a topic that you have some passion for that you or others known to you have experienced. If you have your own topic, not on the list, check with the Instructor.
Some examples are:
Medical health care costs
Disability accessibility
Housing conditions (lack of or segregated sub-standard housing and rent)
Environmental air/ground conditions (e.g. sinkholes in a neighborhood, ground pollution causing birth defects, etc.)
Nutrition needs (e.g. hunger, poverty, etc.)
Political representation (e.g. lack of access to voter registration, municipal representation, or suppression)
Safety measures - (e.g. police profiling, lack of police patrols, neighborhood violence, racial violence)
Unemployment – e.g. layoffs, segregated workplaces by gender/race/age
Poverty – low income, lack of health insurance, lack of access to payment for medications.
High property taxes
Neglected or segregated schools
Banking and regulatory practices that may profile or discriminate against specified populations
Discriminatory practices involving vulnerable minority populations
Toxic air/water pollution
Conduct a literature review of 10 peer-reviewed sources to research the social justice aspects of your chosen issue and its consequences - e.g. physiological, political, social, psychological, and spiritual consequences on the macro (societal, community) and mezzo (family and community) personal and environmental dimensions. Integrate by way of in-text cited content the research findings into your paper’s content from the Hutchison text - e.g. Chapters 13 on Communities and Chapter 14 on Social Movement and from the supplemental sources. Instructions on how to write a literature review is posted under Assignments. (See above.)
Respond to the following:Explain historically how this issue came to be and the current conditions that are impacting on what specific population/s of people. Discuss the importance of your issue. “What are the two or three cultural frames that would motivate people to engage in collective action on this issue….How important do you think emotions are in motivating people to participate in [this] social movement activity (Hutchison, 2019, 450)?” Explain and support your rationale by way of in-text cited content.

Unit Lesson
Prior to the collapse of the economy in 1929 and the slide into the Great
Depression, it was up to individual states to take care of those who were
having economic problems. States themselves had few social welfare
programs, and it was seen as an
issue for charities and families to
take care of. Herbert Hoover was
noted for his unwillingness to help
the people and telling them to “pull
themselves up by their boot
straps.” The impact of the Great
Depression was such that the
people needed more, and Franklin
D. Roosevelt gave it to them in the
form of the New Deal Programs.
Before the New Deal, the
government dealt mostly in laissez-
faire economics, believing that
businesses should make all
production and distribution
decisions. The government did,
however, take part in big business
through such things as the Pacific
Railways Act of 1862, by regulating
the hours of women and children workers, and instituting worker safety rules.
After the New Deal, the federal government would enact more regulations to try
to gain more control over big business.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt (Goldensky, 1933)

One of the most important concepts in clinical practice and group wo.docx
One of the most important concepts in clinical practice and group work is confidentiality. All members of the group sign an informed consent form in order to address the rules and parameters of the group sessions. The rules regarding confidentiality are stated in one section of the form. Although every member must sign this agreement, ensuring that all information shared in the group remains confidential can be difficult. As the group leader, the clinical social worker is responsible for developing strategies so that all members feel safe to share.
For this Discussion, review the “Working With Groups: Latino Patients Living With HIV/AIDS” case study.
By Day 3
Post
strategies you might prefer to use to ensure confidentiality in a treatment group for individuals living with HIV/AIDS. Describe how informed consent addresses confidentiality in a group setting. How does confidentiality in a group differ from confidentiality in individual counseling? Also, discuss how you would address a breach of confidentiality in the group.

The support group discussed here was created to address the unique needs of a vulnerable population receiving services at an outpatient interdisciplinary comprehensive care center. The center’s mission was to provide medical and psychosocial services to adult patients living with HIV/AIDS (PLWH). Both patients and providers at the center expressed a need for a group to address the needs of the center’s Latino population. At the time the group was created, 36% of the center’s population identified as Latino, and 25% of this cohort identified Spanish as their primary language. The purpose of the group was twofold: 1) to reduce the social isolation felt by Latino patients at the center and 2) to create a culturally sensitive environm.

One could argue that old-fashioned attitudes regarding gender and t.docx
One could argue that old-fashioned attitudes regarding gender and "traditional" gender roles are becoming obsolete. In many parts of the world women head major corporations and hold high positions of power—positions historically seen as being of the male domain. In turn, many men freely choose to be "stay-at-home-dads" or enter professions that were once considered to be "feminine." Naturally, our contemporary views of gender and gender roles illustrate the social progress we have made as one human culture.
Yet, prehistoric and ancient works of art tell a different story—one that reinforces old-fashioned gender roles (and maybe for good reason). Prehistoric and ancient representations of gender illustrate the social norms of their periods. Naturally, these works of art were produced by people whose lives and values were quite different from ours. Yet, the views of gender presented by these works of art are, despite our contemporary sensibilities, are still very recognizable.
Write an essay that analyzes the representation of gender and gender roles as seen in

Digital Forensics
There are three primary goals with digital forensics:
Collect electronically stored information in a sound, defensible manner,
Analyze the results of the collections, and
Present the findings either in formal legal proceedings or less formally to inform a client.
Electronic evidence can be short-lived and fragile. It needs to be collected in a defensible, methodological manner to preserve it accurately, and to withstand scrutiny in legal proceedings. (chain of custody)
Electronic evidence can be highly probative, both as it appears to users, and behind the scenes. There is a lot of information that a computer user never sees (e.g. metadata, logs, registry entries). This behind-the-scenes evidence may provide a wealth of information about who did what when and where. Forensic analysts are trained to preserve, collect and interpret this kind of evidence.
Some digital files can be recovered, even if a user has tried to delete them.
Locate a famous case where digital forensics played a role, and share it with the class. Discuss how digital forensics was critical in cracking the case. Examples are listed below, but
you can’t use them – find your own.
Famous cases cracked with digital forensics
Be it a text message, Google searches or GPS information, a person’s digital footprint can provide plenty of ammunition in the courtroom. Here are a few cases where digital forensics played a critical role in bringing about justice
.
1. The BTK Killer, Dennis Rader
Perhaps the most famous case to be solved through digital forensics is that of
the BTK Killer Dennis Rader
, with “BTK” referring to his MO of “bind, torture and kill.” Rader enjoyed taunting police during his killing sprees in Wichita, KS. But this also proved to be his fatal flaw. A floppy disk Rader sent to police revealed his true identity. He was soon arrested, pled guilty and was put behind bars for life, much to the relief of his long-terrorized community.
2. Dr. Conrad Murray’s lethal prescriptions
Another recent case solved with digital forensics was that of
Dr. Conrad Murray, personal physician of Michael Jackson
. Digital forensics played a crucial role in the trial. After Jackson passed away unexpectedly in 20.

One of the most important filmmakers of the twentieth centur.docx
One of the most important filmmakers of the twentieth century to release such popular films such as Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, and The Breakfast Club was someone by the name of John Hughes. Born February 18 in 1950, he sadly died 11 years ago due to a heart attack. Brought up in Michigan, John Hughes started off by creating jokes for already famous comedians. He then began to capture the interest of adolescents in the 1980’s with his work. Movies such as The Breakfast Club;Sixteen Candles;Ferris Bueller's Day Off;Plane, Trains, and Automobiles; and Home Alone gained a huge amount of popularity over time. These movies usually ended in a good way but not without a struggle along the way.
One of John Hughes most popular film’s, titled The Breakfast club takes place in a school library setting as the main 5 students are tasked with learning and understanding each other. Understanding their dislikes for teachers, parents, as well as going through the peer pressure of their respective social groups. This film highly resembles Hughes' work as it reaches toward the best of society with all different types of popular culture which explains why the movie takes place in a library, with the students surrounded by art, books, and statues.
Hughes was very well known as being the king of highschool movies. All of his work dealt with teenagers and the issues they dealt with. Ferris Bueller
Ferris Buellers was one of Hughes' first comedies, and it is the most original movie about high school that has ever been made. There wasn't a movie like it before it was made, and since many attempts have been made to recapture what Ferris Buellers brought to the table. Unfortunately, that is impossible. A big part of Ferris Bueller's magic was the originality of Hughes' vision. He looked at teenagers and high school life from a completely new perspective. Hughes created a world where everything worked out for the hero, and everyone can identify with that.

On Stretching Time (250 Words)
“The given paradigms by which we are to understand and use academic freedom isolate utterances and individuals to insist that the contexts that matter are professional and institutional. But if we stretch time, the potent context of modern nationalism/settler colonialism becomes strongly palpable.”
Kandice Chuh argues that it is imperative for us to “stretch time”: to be able to place utterances and individuals in the academic context in the broader context of modern nationalism and settler colonialism.

On the evening news, social media and even in conversation, do you feel that noting where data and other vital information being shared came from could alleviate confusion, frustration and "gossip"? If so, where should we draw the line? Do you trust what others discuss with you? Or do you "fact check"?

On p. 98-99 of
Music and Capitalism,
Tim Taylor writes, “These and other Western star musicians employ other common discourses about the musicians with whom they worked and the musics they appropriated or collaborated with. The dominant ideology and discourse are that non-Western musics are a kind of natural resource that is available for the taking, though these acts of appropriation are frequently tempered by the Western star’s appearance alongside the non-Western musicians in publicity photographs, on recordings, and in liner notes.”
Review your notes from class about important words, or look these up as necessary: discourse, appropriation, collaboration, ideology
Then, write a response that does the following:
Explain: what does this quotation mean in your own words?
How does the
Graceland
example fit in with what Tim Taylor is talking about here
?
Think of another time that musicians with different power positions are part of a musical performance or recording (you can use one in the chapter, like
Buena Vista Social Club, Deep Forest,
“The Lion Sleeps Tonight,” “Return to Innocence,” “El Condor Pasa,” or
Talking Timbuktu
, or one not in the reading that interests you). Describe the relationship between the musicians, and argue whether you think the album/performance is appropriation, collaboration, sampling, or something else. If the artists have different positionalities in terms of race, gender, and/or country of origin, comment on the effect this has. Give your opinion on ethical questions raised in this particular situation.
Your response should be about 3-5 paragraphs (minimum 12 sentences) in length. For part c, you will need to reference and cite an additional source (i.e. web site, album, academic source, news article, etc.)

On 1 January 2016, the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) o.docx
On 1 January 2016, the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development — adopted by world leaders in September 2015 at an historic UN Summit — officially came into force. These goals address every topic of concern we have discussed this semester. Over the coming decade, it's the hope of UN member nations (which includes the U.S.) that the SDGs will universally be applied to all, countries will mobilize efforts to end all forms of poverty, fight inequalities and tackle climate change, while ensuring that no one is left behind.
With the SDGs as your reference, answer these questions:
Are any of the 17goals from the UN website particularly unrealistic—describe, in detail, why you think so (or not).
Which of the 17 goals do you believe is the highest priority for the world and why? Cite specific examples from class content, discussions and assessments.

On September 11, 2001 the U.S. changed forever. While the U.S. had suffered attacks before, nothing to this scale and magnitude. The attacks were aimed at highly populated areas (NYC) and homes for the government and armed forces (Washington, D.C. and the Pentagon). The World Trade Centers were an ideal target for their height and location. For your own post, consider vulnerable populations. What constitutes vulnerability in populations living in disaster prone areas? Consider NYC, these attacks were neither the first nor the last attacks NYC has suffered. Why is NYC such a hub for terrorist attacks? Try considering other areas, other than NYC, and provide an example from a recent disaster. Unfortunately, there are many. You can discuss man-made disasters or natural disasters.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic Imperative
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Often, policymakers develop policies in response to a recent societa.docx
- 1. Often, policymakers develop policies in response to a recent societal problem or event. Whereas some societal problems, such as homelessness, unemployment, and poverty, require long-term policy development and refinement, society sometimes demands immediate policy implementation in response to events or problems that proved dangerous for society at large. For example, the U.S. terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, and the subsequent terrorist threats heightened airport security and created item restrictions for airplane carry-on luggage. Over time, policymakers adjusted these policies as the danger appeared less imminent due to the development of other policies. What policies are you aware of that policymakers developed in response to a societal problem or event? Are those policies effective responses to the problems or events? If not, how might you change them in order to make them more effective? For this Discussion , review this week’s resources. Using reputable news and education sources, search for an event that led to the formation of a social policy. Then, consider what changes you might make to the policy that resulted from this event. Finally, think about the role of social work (as a profession and political lobby) in the formation of the policy. By Day 3 Post a brief explanation of the event you selected that led to the formation of a social policy. Then, explain what changes you would make to the policy that resulted from this event and why. Finally, explain the role of social work (as a profession and political lobby) in the formation of the policy.
