· 5-1 Discussion: DEI and CSR Initiatives Discussion Topic Top of Form Bottom of Form During your discussions with the experienced project manager, they stressed that beyond profitability, other key elements your project should focus on are diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), while simultaneously demonstrating corporate social responsibility (CSR). In the marketplace, companies that have diverse project teams get varied perspectives that help the overall project. Just as important, companies that “give back” to the communities they service do better and are supported by millennial buyers—a big target segment for many companies. For your initial post, research your selected company’s position on DEI initiatives and the CSR programs they currently support via the company’s website. Then, address the following questions about your proposed product or service: · What is the company’s position on DEI? Do they have a clear policy or initiative around it? · What actions could you take to ensure a diverse, inclusive, and equitable project team is assembled? · What is the company’s commitment to CSR and how does it affect their profitability or image in the market? · How does your product or service align with the company’s CSR program and how can you leverage this position as a competitive tool? In your responses to your peers, address the following questions: · How does this company compare to your selected company in regard to DEI and CSR? · What suggestions do you have to improve your classmate’s plan for their project team?

Buying Groceries in Brick and Click Stores: Category
Allocation Decisions and the Moderating Effect of Online
Buying Experience

Abstract
The large majority of online grocery shoppers are multichannel shoppers who keep visiting offline grocery stores to combine convenience
advantages of online shopping with self-service advantages of offline stores. An important retail management question, therefore, is how these
consumers divide grocery purchases across the retailer's online and offline channel. We provide a comprehensive analysis of the impact of
category characteristics on the allocation pattern of multichannel grocery shoppers and find that category allocation decisions are affected not
only by marketing mix differences between the online and offline channel, but also by intrinsic category characteristics like perceived purchase risk
and shopping convenience. In addition, we examine the effect of online buying experience. In line with expectations, we find that it can affect
allocation patterns in different ways: (i) it attenuates the perceived risk of buying sensory categories online, thereby reducing differences in online
category share, (ii) it reinforces marketing mix (assortment) effects, thereby making online category share differences more pronounced, and (iii) it
has no effect for factors such as promotions that are easy to evaluate without experience, thereby leaving the online category share stable. In
addition to different experience effects across allocation factors, we also observe variations in experience effects across consumer segments.

Introduction operate an online store next to their offline supermarket outlets
While lagging behind in comparison with many other
consumer markets, online shopping for groceries has increased
dramatically over the last few years, and now tops the agenda of
all major grocery retailers (Warschun 2012). “[Grocery] retailers
are increasingly finding they must innovate in ways that make it
easier and more convenient for their customers to get what they
need without missing a beat," according to Nielsen's Continuous
Innovation report, which found that “convenience itself may be
the most creative and energetic example of retail innovation”

This document discusses stakeholders and their importance for businesses. It defines stakeholders as groups that a business is responsible to, such as customers, employees, suppliers, communities and governments. Primary stakeholders like employees and customers are essential to a business's survival, while secondary stakeholders like special interest groups are not directly involved in transactions. The document examines how businesses should consider both primary and secondary stakeholder needs to build effective relationships and ensure social responsibility. It also provides examples of common stakeholder issues and how businesses can measure their impacts in these areas.

ALBERT ELLIS (1913–2007)
was born in Pittsburgh but
escaped to the wilds of New
York at the age of 4 and lived
there (except for a year in New
Jersey) for the rest of his life. He
was hospitalized nine times as
a child, mainly with nephritis,
and developed renal glycosuria
at the age of 19 and diabetes at the age of 40. By rigor-
ously taking care of his health and stubbornly refusing
to make himself miserable about it, he lived an unusually
robust and energetic life, until his death at age 93.
Realizing that he could counsel people skillfully and
that he greatly enjoyed doing so, Ellis decided to become
a psychologist. Believing psychoanalysis to be the
deepest form of psychotherapy, Ellis was analyzed and
supervised by a training analyst. He then practiced psy-
choanalytically oriented psychotherapy, but eventually
he became disillusioned with the slow progress of his cli-
ents. He observed that they improved more quickly once
they changed their ways of thinking about themselves
and their problems. Early in 1955 he developed rational
emotive behavior therapy (REBT). Ellis has rightly been
called the “grandfather of cognitive behavior therapy.”
Until his illness during the last two years of his life, he
generally worked 16 hours a day, seeing many clients for
individual therapy, making time each day for professional
writing, and giving numerous talks and workshops in
many parts of the world.
To some extent Ellis developed his approach as a
method of dealing with his own problems during his
youth. At one point in his life, for example, he had exag-

P: yeah yeah, met her, what happened, she had had a previous two year heroin addiction, and up to that period I had tried it but I’d never smoked it everyday, but she had obviously, and for six weeks, after meeting her we were smoking it everyday, and I’d said to her I don’t understand how people get addicted to this stuff, people must be weak, I mean I don’t understand how they’re getting addicted to this stuff, and after six weeks, what happened is I woke up and realised I’d lost all this weight, I hadn’t been to the toilet for six weeks, and also, I really really needed to go to the toilet, and I didn’t know what the feeling of clucking was, if you see what I mean, what the sensations and that felt like, and you know I can remember that very first day vividly, /just feeling that pain and the want for heroin like, erm it’s hard to explain what it feels like, erm it’s like a rushing on your mind, you can’t stop thinking about it, I want it, I want it, I want it, so obviously we had to go and score then, but that was when I had my first real feeling of it washing over me, it was actually making me feel better than normal, before previously I was getting a good buzz off it, it was giving me a good buzz like, but fromthat point on it would wash over me where I just used to feel normal again, as in, whereas before, so then my tolerance built up, then my use went up even more, I was smoking like sixty pounds worth a day, and I was committing crimes to like supply that,’
Jm: So you said there was this one day you’d woken up with a habit, had you already realised you’d been using everyday by this point?
P: yeah, yeah,
Jm: can you remember the first time you realised you were using heroin every day?
P: yeah
Jm: can you remember where you were at this time?
P: lying in bed
Jm: and do you remember exactly what you thought when you realised this?
P: I thought I gotta go and buy heroin, I gotta go and get some heroin
Jm: you said there were other times you were using every day
P: I was using every day, and I thought it was addictive, I thought it wasn’t physically addictive, I thought must have been a mentally addictive drug, and then all of a sudden I had the physical withdrawals, I realised that I was physically addicted to it,
Jm: so you woke up and felt you needed to go and get some, did you have any other thoughts about it? Like fuck I need to sort myself out?

CULTURAL IMPACTS ON DISTANCE
LEARNING, ONLINE LEARNING STYLES,
AND DESIGN
Sultan Alalshaikh
Pepperdine University
This article focuses on the multicultural nature of distance learners. To note, the heightened demand for higher
education on a global scale, as well as rapid advancements in telecommunication technologies, have rendered
online distance education as having potential for worldwide reach online schools in many countries. Because
of this, online educators should design instruction in such a way that people from different cultural back-
grounds effectively learn from it. Indeed, instructors and instructional designers, particularly those working in
online learning environments, should develop the necessary skills so they are able to deliver “culturally sen-
sitive and culturally appropriate and robust instruction.” The article explores the relevant concepts such as the
cultural dimension of distance learning, instructional design that is culturally appropriate, learning as
impacted by culture, as well as the need for multicultural competency training for distance school instructors.
The article also explores the barriers to effectiveness in delivery of culturally appropriate instruction in the
context of distance learning. The theoretical foundation for the article is Freire’s critical pedagogy.
INTRODUCTION
Heightening demand for higher education on a
global scale, as well as rapid advancements in
telecommunication technologies, have ren-
dered online distance education as having
potential for worldwide reach (Garrison &
Anderson, 2003; Sadykova & Dautermann,
2009). Indeed, one of the most remarkable
social developments of the past 20 years has
been the increasing ubiquity of technology as
well as of Internet connectivity. Hence, a pri-
mary part of life is the integration of the Inter-
net and computer technology into almost every
facet of life—from transportation, communi-
cation, and finance, to education (Gaudelli,
2006, p. 97). Needless to say, many people rely
on computers and Internet connectivity in
order to function effectively and efficiently. It
is noteworthy that academic institutions have
also increasingly been dependent upon tech-
nology in order to facilitate instruction and

operations. Such schools have varying motiva-
tions to do so, but a commonality among them
is that they seek to prepare their graduates to
“function in a technology-rich, information-
based society” (Gaudelli, 2006, p. 97).

Notes for the professor:
Much of the content on these slides are based on Robbins & Judge (2012)
(“Essentials of Organizational Behavior” textbook, edition 11, chapter 2: attitudes
and job satisfaction)
•3
Attitudes are evaluative statements and these statements can be favorable or
unfavorable. Individuals’ attitudes at work such as their satisfaction with their jobs
or their commitment to the organization are important because factors like job
satisfaction and organizational commitment can relate to one’s performance at
work.
According to the single component definition, attitudes constitute of only “affect”
or, in other words, of feelings we have about objects, people, or events. This single
component view simplifies things for us as it only refers to “affect” or feelings. We
tend to have complex views about the world but at the same time we want to predict
behavior. We can predict behavior by looking at one’s attitudes through identifying
one’s affect about objects, people, or events.
According to the tri-component view, which represents a more complicated view of
attitudes, attitudes consist of affect, behavior, and cognition. These are the ABC’s of
attitudes. According to this view or definition, affect includes how you feel,
behavior includes how you behave (how you behave is considered as part of your
attitude), and cognition includes your thoughts, your rationalizations. According to
the tri-component view of attitudes, one’s attitudes include one’s affect, behaviors,
and cognitions about objects, people, or events. For example, you may hate your job
(negative affect), but you may show up at work (behavior) not to get fired. You
might also have these cognitions that say “I should be happy to get this job…”. As you see in
this example, the components (affect, cognition, and behavior) may not be consistent.
An example where the components (affect, cognition, and behavior) are consistent is the
following: “I like my job (affect), I show up at work (behavior), and work is good for me
because it keeps my mind sharp and allows me to learn new skills, travel, make friends, be a
part of a social community, pay for my bills, pay for the things I want to do in my life, and
keeps me active and in the work force. Also, I should be very happy and grateful to have this
job because so many of my friends have been looking for a great job for a long time now.” In
another example, you may like smoking (affect), you may smoke a pack a day (behavior), and
you may have a cognition that says “smoking is good for me because I don’t get overweight”
or “it increases brain activity” (cognition). In both of these examples, the components (affect,
cognition, behavior) are consistent and, therefore, individuals do not experience dissonance.
However, to the extent that these components are not consistent, individuals experience
dissonance, in others words, an aversive mental state (which will be discussed in later s ...

“Self-esteem is an experience. It is a particular way of experiencing the self. It is a
good deal more than a mere feeling — this must be stressed. It involves emotional,
evaluative, and cognitive components. It also entails certain action dispositions: to
move toward life rather than away from it; to move toward consciousness rather
than away from it; to treat facts with respect rather than denial; to operate self-
responsibly rather than the opposite.” (“What Self-Esteem Is and Is Not” by Dr.
Nathaniel Branden, 1997, article adapted from The Art of Living Consciously,

“One does not need to be a trained psychologist to know that some people with low
self-esteem strive to compensate for their deficit by boasting, arrogance, and
conceited behavior.” (“What Self-Esteem ...

CULTURAL IMPACTS ON DISTANCE
LEARNING, ONLINE LEARNING STYLES,
AND DESIGN
Sultan Alalshaikh
Pepperdine University
This article focuses on the multicultural nature of distance learners. To note, the heightened demand for higher
education on a global scale, as well as rapid advancements in telecommunication technologies, have rendered
online distance education as having potential for worldwide reach online schools in many countries. Because
of this, online educators should design instruction in such a way that people from different cultural back-
grounds effectively learn from it. Indeed, instructors and instructional designers, particularly those working in
online learning environments, should develop the necessary skills so they are able to deliver “culturally sen-
sitive and culturally appropriate and robust instruction.” The article explores the relevant concepts such as the
cultural dimension of distance learning, instructional design that is culturally appropriate, learning as
impacted by culture, as well as the need for multicultural competency training for distance school instructors.
The article also explores the barriers to effectiveness in delivery of culturally appropriate instruction in the
context of distance learning. The theoretical foundation for the article is Freire’s critical pedagogy.
INTRODUCTION
Heightening demand for higher education on a
global scale, as well as rapid advancements in
telecommunication technologies, have ren-
dered online distance education as having
potential for worldwide reach (Garrison &
Anderson, 2003; Sadykova & Dautermann,
2009). Indeed, one of the most remarkable
social developments of the past 20 years has
been the increasing ubiquity of technology as
well as of Internet connectivity. Hence, a pri-
mary part of life is the integration of the Inter-
net and computer technology into almost every
facet of life—from transportation, communi-
cation, and finance, to education (Gaudelli,
2006, p. 97). Needless to say, many people rely
on computers and Internet connectivity in
order to function effectively and efficiently. It
is noteworthy that academic institutions have
also increasingly been dependent upon tech-
nology in order to facilitate instruction and

operations. Such schools have varying motiva-
tions to do so, but a commonality among them
is that they seek to prepare their graduates to
“function in a technology-rich, information-
based society” (Gaudelli, 2006, p. 97).

Notes for the professor:
Much of the content on these slides are based on Robbins & Judge (2012)
(“Essentials of Organizational Behavior” textbook, edition 11, chapter 2: attitudes
and job satisfaction)

Attitudes are evaluative statements and these statements can be favorable or
unfavorable. Individuals’ attitudes at work such as their satisfaction with their jobs
or their commitment to the organization are important because factors like job
satisfaction and organizational commitment can relate to one’s performance at
work.
According to the single component definition, attitudes constitute of only “affect”
or, in other words, of feelings we have about objects, people, or events. This single
component view simplifies things for us as it only refers to “affect” or feelings. We
tend to have complex views about the world but at the same time we want to predict
behavior. We can predict behavior by looking at one’s attitudes through identifying
one’s affect about objects, people, or events.
According to the tri-component view, which represents a more complicated view of
attitudes, attitudes consist of affect, behavior, and cognition. These are the ABC’s of
attitudes. According to this view or definition, affect includes how you feel,
behavior includes how you behave (how you behave is considered as part of your
attitude), and cognition includes your thoughts, your rationalizations. According to
the tri-component view of attitudes, one’s attitudes include one’s affect, behaviors,
and cognitions about objects, people, or events. For example, you may hate your job
(negative affect), but you may show up at work (behavior) not to get fired. You
might also have these cognitions that say “I should be happy to get this job…”. As you see in
this example, the components (affect, cognition, and behavior) may not be consistent.
An example where the components (affect, cognition, and behavior) are consistent is the
following: “I like my job (affect), I show up at work (behavior), and work is good for me
because it keeps my mind sharp and allows me to learn new skills, travel, make friends, be a
part of a social community, pay for my bills, pay for the things I want to do in my life, and
keeps me active and in the work force. Also, I should be very happy and grateful to have this
job because so many of my friends have been looking for a great job for a long time now.” In
another example, you may like smoking (affect), you may smoke a pack a day (behavior), and
you may have a cognition that says “smoking is good for me because I don’t get overweight”
or “it increases brain activity” (cognition). In both of these examples, the components (affect,
cognition, behavior) are consistent and, therefore, individuals do not experience dissonance.
However, to the extent that these components are not consistent, individuals experience
dissonance, in others words, an aversive mental state (which will be discussed in later s ...

Culturally Competent
The COVID-19 has affected over 45 million in the United States and has led to over seven hundred and forty thousand deaths across the United States. The pandemic has increasingly affected all individuals and has led to various economic as well as social changes. However, there have been some health disparities identified with people of color being among the most affected individuals (Reyes, 2020). Nurses are at the frontline of providing health care services to individuals that have been infected by the virus. Therefore, as a nurse, I have come across various COVID-19 cases where the patient needed to be observed or there was a need to manage the condition.
One case was that of a middle-aged pregnant woman that had contracted the virus. The symptoms started as headaches and feeling tired. She stated that she initially assumed these symptoms as normal pregnancy symptoms as she had earlier on in the week engaged in some intensive exercises as she went shopping with some family members. However, one evening she had some challenges breathing and her family members rushed her to the hospital. She had to be put on oxygen as she needed support breathing. She was given a PCR test that turned out to be negative. However, the fact that she needed to be on oxygen necessitated another test which also read negative. At this point, it was crucial that a chest scan be done to help with the diagnosis. Upon the scan, the physician diagnosed the patient with COVID-19. Her condition quickly deteriorated and she had to be put in intensive care. It was especially challenging caring for her given that she was seven months pregnant at the time. At one point, the family had contemplated terminating the pregnancy to increase her chances of surviving given that fetal movements had subsided for a while. However, after a few weeks in the intensive care unit, she made a full recovery and was able to deliver her baby full-term. She remained on oxygen and under observation until ...

· You have choices. You should answer three of the four available short answer questions and one of the two essay questions. Please label each response (e.g., Short Answer 3) to indicate what question you are responding to. Please also sort your short answer responses in numerical order (so 1,2,4 if those are the three questions you answer – even if you prepared them in 4,1,2 order).
PART ONE: Answer three of the following four short answer questions. Be sure to label your answers with the question number and arrange them in question order number. A target range for responses to these questions is approximately 250 words.
Short Answer 1
History depends on the choice to narrate certain facts and omit others. All histories are incomplete, which makes the act of writing history both powerful and creative. Why does the distinction between “what happened” and “what is said to have happened” matter?
Short Answer 2
What is the “Great Man Myth” and how does that lens shape what histories get told? What histories get omitted when we focus on the Great Man Myth? Incorporate examples from at least one media technology to help support your answer.
Short Answer 3
In “The Case of the Telegraph,” James Carey argued, “The simplest and most important point about the telegraph is that it marked the decisive separation of ‘transportation’ and ‘communication.’” Describe two ideologies that were ushered in by the telegraph and how they changed society. Your answer should consider both the dominant history and also an alternative or counter history for each development.
Short Answer 4
While mainstream history celebrates photography as the first visual medium for objectivity and evidence, counter histories claim that it actually muddied the distinction between objective and subjective knowledge. Explain how photography blurred the distinction between objectivity and subjectivity and how that transmitted and influenced cultural and social ideologies. Provide specific examples to support your argument.
PART TWO: Answer one of the following two essay questions. Be sure to label your answers with the question number and arrange them in question order number.
Your answers should engage these questions at the conceptual level and use specific examples from the media histories we have covered this semester to support your arguments. A target range for this essay response is probably in the 1,200-2,000 word range.
Essay 1
In the first part of the Media Histories course, we have repeatedly turned to Benedict Anderson’s argument about imagined communities:
I propose the following definition of the nation: it is an imagined political community – and imagined as both inherently limited and sovereign.
It is imagined because the members of even the smallest nation will never know most of their fellow-members, meet them, or even hear of them, yet in the minds of each lives the image of their communication…
Communities are to be distinguished not by their ...

· Write a 3 page paper in which you analyze why regulatory agencies began monitoring quality in health care, explain how regulatory agencies have impacted quality of care, and provide an evaluation of quality.
Introduction
Early attempts at quality efforts were limited to the resources, knowledge, and environment in which health care services and treatment were rendered. As medical education and research advanced so did the knowledge of and focus on quality improvement efforts. Basic functions including handwashing and sterile environments were two of the many simple advancements resulting in dramatic improvements in outcomes and overall quality.
Regulatory agencies have directly impacted health care organizations' focus on, and attention to, quality improvement. Founded in 1951, The Joint Commission offers accreditation to various health care organizations who demonstrate compliance with established regulatory standards. Combined with various government agencies, initiatives have been implemented that require health care organizations to report on quality measures, thereby making their quality performance transparent throughout the industry.
As a leader in the health care industry, understanding historical perspectives of quality, regulatory oversight, and medical malpractice will allow you to effectively lead your organization to meet or exceed its strategic goals related to improved outcomes, increased reimbursements, and reduced cost.

Problem-Solving Application Case—
Incentives Gone Wrong, then Wrong
Again, and Wrong Again
The Wells Fargo scandal demonstrates how a company’s choice and implementation of performance management incentives can have
disastrous side effects. This activity is important because it illustrates why managers must never implement an incentive scheme without
considering as much as possible any and all effects that it may have on employees’ behavior.
The goal of this activity is for you to understand the link between the details of Wells Fargo’s incentive scheme and the employee behaviors that
resulted from it.
Read about how performance incentives led to scandal at Wells Fargo. Then, using the three-step problem-solving approach, answer the
questions that follow.
Money is an important tool for both attracting and motivating talent. If you owned a company or were its CEO, you would likely agree and
choose performance management practices to deliver such outcomes. It also is possible you’d use incentives to help align your employees’
interests, behaviors, and performance with those of the company. After all, countless companies have used incentives very successfully, but not
all. The incentives used by Wells Fargo had disastrous consequences for employees, customers, and the company itself.

Lesson Introduction
After reading this week’s materials, you will be able to define the role of police patrol and its importance as applied to law enforcement intelligence.
Lesson Objectives
● Outline and discuss early police and patrol procedures
● Evaluate modern patrol allocations
Course Objectives that apply to this lesson:
CO: (3) Demonstrate an understanding of the history of police patrol procedures from the days of early policing to modern day policing allocations.
Patrol
There are many ways to determine the best way to allocate patrol resources in a community. Some of them are covered in our studies but that is not the whole story. Keep in mind that it is more likely to be a combination of models as well as a sensitivity to specific to regional and demographic considerations.
It is important to take many variables into consideration when determining how best to utilize patrols. At the same time, we must remember to expect the unexpected and be as prepared as possible to respond. No two situations, weeks, months, or years will ever be exactly the same. This is part of what makes a career in criminal justice such a challenge and also so rewarding.
In the early 1900’s and before the work of August Vollmer, there was not much information concerning police allocation. Vollmer created a list of police functions such as crime prevention, criminal investigation, traffic control, and patrol. In the early deployment allocation models, the police were distributed based on calls for service and officer workloads. Although what appeared to be effective at the time, more research began to see potential issues with this model such as police saturation may cause a higher number of arrests. Other departments in this time frame distributed patrol units evenly without taking into account other factors such as crimes, population, distance, or number of personnel.
Preventative Patrol
As police operations moved forward, other methods of deployment emerged. In the 1960’s, law enforcement professional started to shift focus on preventative patrol methods. As discussed in previous lessons, t ...

The document discusses a 1998 article by Goodale and Humphrey that proposed vision has two separate but interacting functions - perception and action control. It argues that separate visual systems have evolved for perception (the ventral stream) and action control (the dorsal stream), which differs from Ungerleider and Mishkin's 1982 theory that proposed one unified visual system. The document provides evidence from studies of "rewired" frogs to support the existence of separate visuomotor modules for different behaviors. It suggests this duplex approach means reconstructive and purposive views of vision are complementary rather than mutually exclusive.

Worldview & Decision-Making
The sudden neurological injury that is not likely to recover puts the person in denial if the person is somewhat conscious. It is hard to accept for even family that sudden change in care given stage. Those patients have physical problems like paralysis of facial muscles or losing sensation in the face, altered sense of smell or taste, loss of vision, swallowing difficulties, dizziness, ringing in the ear, and hearing loss. They also have altered consciousness, intellectual problems, cognitive problems, Executive functioning problems, communication problems, behavioral changes, emotional changes, sensory problems, and degenerative issues.
The majority of persons who have suffered substantial brain damage will need rehabilitation. They may have to relearn basic abilities like walking and to talk. The objective is to increase their ability to carry out everyday tasks. Rehabilitation includes a group of people who master different specialties to help patients maintain living activity. An occupational therapist, who supports the person learning, relearn or improving skills to perform everyday activities—a physical therapist who helps with mobility and relearning movement patterns, balance, and walking. The social worker or case manager facilitates access to service agencies, assists with care decisions and planning, and facilitates communication among various professionals, care providers, and family members. A rehabilitation nurse assists with discharge planning from a hospital or rehabilitation center by providing continuous rehabilitation care and services. Speech and language therapist supports the person to improve communication skills and use assistive communication devices if necessary. A recreational therapist helps the patient with Time management and leisure activities. We can also use music therapy and aroma therapy to relax patients who face incurable health conditions.

Values and Moral Survey of Students
SCORING AND INTERPRETATION: If trying to rank in order these fifteen values and morals was difficult and you felt that it was somewhat arbitrary; it was. Without the proper context, exact meaning of each, and the problem of one concept being like others, everyone gets frustrated with this exercise. To be sure, this exercise does not tell you what your real morals or values are. Rather, it is a crude representation of what they might be. At the end of the simulation, compare what you ranked as important to what your decisions were. The following are vague descriptions of the fifteen values and morals:
ASSISTANCE: The act of helping or assisting someone or the help supplied.
CANDOR: Freedom from prejudice or malice.
CHARACTER: Someone with moral excellence.
CHARITY: Generosity and helpfulness, especially toward the needy or suffering.
COMPASSION: Sympathetic consciousness of others' distress with a desire to alleviate it.
ENVIRONMENT: Concern about the world's resources (land, water, air).
EXACTING IN TRUTH: Rigid or severe in demands or requirements.
FAIRNESS: Free from bias or injustice; evenhandedness.
HONESTY: Sincerity, frankness, freedom from deceit or fraud.
INTEGRITY: Firm adherence to a code of values; incorruptibility.
PERSEVERANCE: To do or achieve something despite difficulties, failure, or opposition.
SACRIFICE: Surrender of something for the sake of something else.
SERIOUSNESS: Thoughtful in appearance or manner; requiring much thought or work relating to a matter of importance.
TOLERANCE: Sympathy or indulgence for beliefs or practices differing from or conflicting with one's own.
TRUTHFULNESS: Corresponding with reality.

· Nasser, you have some instructional components within your training plan. Unfortunately, the plan lacks detail and specific materials you would use to implement this plan. You could strengthen your plan by including the specific communication plan, assessment tools, and evaluation rubrics that you would use with the students. You mentioned generalities of instruction, but you did not include the specifics of how instruction would be implemented. What does "Pragmatic practices on basic principles of engineering statics" mean? How is this taught? What does this look like? Your assessment should be presented. For example, you noted that "Theoretical studies to be evaluate through continuous assessment exams (CAT) which should be administered twice in a semester.." You should include the specific exam with your plan. These items could be created and included, to strengthen your overall training presentation

He wants it to address the benefits they should expect, as well as the problems this equipment can bring with it.
Instructions
Create a PowerPoint presentation for the command staff that includes the following components:
· Specify three types of military equipment or arms that are available through the federal government for local law enforcement.
· Contrast two positive and negative results associated with types of military equipment or arms that are available through the federal government for local law enforcement.
· Describe negative images caused by types of military equipment or arms that are available through the federal government for local law enforcement.
· Explain why the public may have concerns about the negative images this military equipment or arms may cause (for example, in the perception of the militarization of the police).
Requirements

Primary Care Nurse practitioner (NP) Role vs. APN Roles
Compare the primary care NP role with other APN roles. What are the similarities among the roles, what are the differences, and how would you communicate the role to a healthcare provider and a consumer?
The advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) has different roles and responsibilities that nurses can undertake depending on the nature of their training. An APRN can also be referred to as a nurse practitioner (NP). There are other designated roles other than the NP such as the clinical nurse specialist (CNS), the certified nurse-midwives (CNM), and certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNA) (Everett et al., 2016). These roles have similarities and differences and many cases of overlapping responsibilities and in some cases, the need for collaboration to achieve the desired patient outcomes. The primary care NP is a specific role within the purview of NPs in which the provider is a general practitioner without any specialty training (Butler et al., 2017). The NP has roles such as completing patient assessments including conducting a physical examination. The primary care NP can also undertake diagnostic approaches such as ordering lab works and imaging procedures and providing appropriate interpretation. The NP can provide treatment and monitoring of the patient and also provide health education and other primary prevention measures.
One similarity of the role of primary NP to other APRN roles is that they have the scope to conduct independent patient assessments. All roles of the APRN have the scope of taking the patient's history, conducting a proper physical exam, and ensuring an appropriate differential diagnosis (Phillips, 2016). The APRN has completed competencies in the assessment of the patient and he/she can use these competencies to determine and fulfill patient needs. Another similarity of the role of the primary care NP to other APRNs is the role of providing patient education, mentoring, and advocating for the needs of the patient (Hanks et al., 2018). Each APRN has a responsibility to empower the patient by providing health education about their condition or the treatment process to support their autonomy. The patient is the primary decision-maker in the clinical area and providing them with education supports their ability to make proper healthcare decisions.
The role of the primary care NP is different from the role of certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNA) in the sense of anesthesia and pain management. The CRNA is a specialist in pre, intra and post-operative pain and anesthesia management and this is a role that the NP does not have scope for (Butler et al., 2017). Th ...

AN INTRODUCTION TO LOGOTHERAPY
Fourth Edition
Viktor E. Frankl
PART ONE TRANSLATED BY ILSE LASCH PREFACE BY GORDON W. ALLPORT
With more than 4 million copies in print in the English language alone, Man's
Search for Meaning, the chilling yet inspirational story of Viktor Frankl's
struggle to hold on to hope during his three years as a prisoner in Nazi
concentration camps, is a true classic. Beacon Press is now pleased to
present a special gift edition of a work that was hailed in 1959 by Carl Rogers
as "one of the outstanding contributions to psychological thought in the last
fifty years." Frankl's training as a psychiatrist informed every waking
moment of his ordeal and allowed him a remarkable perspective on the
psychology of survival. His assertion that "the will to meaning" is the basic
motivation for human life has forever changed the way we understand our
humanity in the face of suffering.

Preface
Dr. Frankl, author-psychiatrist, sometimes asks his patients who suffer from a multitude of
torments great and small, "Why do you not commit suicide?" From their answers he can often find
the guide-line for his psycho-therapy: in one life there is love for one's children to tie to; in another
life, a talent to be used; in a third, perhaps only lingering memories worth preserving. To weave
these slender threads of a broken life into a firm pattern of me ...

The COVID-19 has affected over 45 million in the United States and has led to over seven hundred and forty thousand deaths across the United States. The pandemic has increasingly affected all individuals and has led to various economic as well as social changes. However, there have been some health disparities identified with people of color being among the most affected individuals (Reyes, 2020). Nurses are at the frontline of providing health care services to individuals that have been infected by the virus. Therefore, as a nurse, I have come across various COVID-19 cases where the patient needed to be observed or there was a need to manage the condition.
One case was that of a middle-aged pregnant woman that had contracted the virus. The symptoms started as headaches and feeling tired. She stated that she initially assumed these symptoms as normal pregnancy symptoms as she had earlier on in the week engaged in some intensive exercises as she went shopping with some family members. However, one evening she had some challenges breathing and her family members rushed her to the hospital. She had to be put on oxygen as she needed support breathing. She was given a PCR test that turned out to be negative. However, the fact that she needed to be on oxygen necessitated another test which also read negative. At this point, it was crucial that a chest scan be done to help with the diagnosis. Upon the scan, the physician diagnosed the patient with COVID-19. Her condition quickly deteriorated and she had to be put in intensive care. It was especially challenging caring for her given that she was seven months pregnant at the time. At one point, the family had contemplated terminating the pregnancy to increase her chances of surviving given that fetal movements had subsided for a while. However, after a few weeks in the intensive care unit, she made a full recovery and was able to deliver her baby full-term. She remained on oxygen and under observation until ...

· You have choices. You should answer three of the four available short answer questions and one of the two essay questions. Please label each response (e.g., Short Answer 3) to indicate what question you are responding to. Please also sort your short answer responses in numerical order (so 1,2,4 if those are the three questions you answer – even if you prepared them in 4,1,2 order).
PART ONE: Answer three of the following four short answer questions. Be sure to label your answers with the question number and arrange them in question order number. A target range for responses to these questions is approximately 250 words.
Short Answer 1
History depends on the choice to narrate certain facts and omit others. All histories are incomplete, which makes the act of writing history both powerful and creative. Why does the distinction between “what happened” and “what is said to have happened” matter?
Short Answer 2
What is the “Great Man Myth” and how does that lens shape what histories get told? What histories get omitted when we focus on the Great Man Myth? Incorporate examples from at least one media technology to help support your answer.
Short Answer 3
In “The Case of the Telegraph,” James Carey argued, “The simplest and most important point about the telegraph is that it marked the decisive separation of ‘transportation’ and ‘communication.’” Describe two ideologies that were ushered in by the telegraph and how they changed society. Your answer should consider both the dominant history and also an alternative or counter history for each development.
Short Answer 4
While mainstream history celebrates photography as the first visual medium for objectivity and evidence, counter histories claim that it actually muddied the distinction between objective and subjective knowledge. Explain how photography blurred the distinction between objectivity and subjectivity and how that transmitted and influenced cultural and social ideologies. Provide specific examples to support your argument.
PART TWO: Answer one of the following two essay questions. Be sure to label your answers with the question number and arrange them in question order number.
Your answers should engage these questions at the conceptual level and use specific examples from the media histories we have covered this semester to support your arguments. A target range for this essay response is probably in the 1,200-2,000 word range.
Essay 1
In the first part of the Media Histories course, we have repeatedly turned to Benedict Anderson’s argument about imagined communities:
I propose the following definition of the nation: it is an imagined political community – and imagined as both inherently limited and sovereign.
It is imagined because the members of even the smallest nation will never know most of their fellow-members, meet them, or even hear of them, yet in the minds of each lives the image of their communication…

The document provides guidance for creating a 2-page staff update on appropriate social media use and HIPAA compliance in healthcare. It describes a situation where a nurse posted a photo of a patient on Facebook, which was a violation of the organization's social media policy. As a result, the organization formed a task force to educate staff on these topics through interprofessional updates. The document outlines required content and competencies to be demonstrated in the staff update, such as defining protected health information, privacy/security, and the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration to safeguard patient data.

· Write a 3 page paper in which you analyze why regulatory agencies began monitoring quality in health care, explain how regulatory agencies have impacted quality of care, and provide an evaluation of quality.
Introduction
Early attempts at quality efforts were limited to the resources, knowledge, and environment in which health care services and treatment were rendered. As medical education and research advanced so did the knowledge of and focus on quality improvement efforts. Basic functions including handwashing and sterile environments were two of the many simple advancements resulting in dramatic improvements in outcomes and overall quality.
Regulatory agencies have directly impacted health care organizations' focus on, and attention to, quality improvement. Founded in 1951, The Joint Commission offers accreditation to various health care organizations who demonstrate compliance with established regulatory standards. Combined with various government agencies, initiatives have been implemented that require health care organizations to report on quality measures, thereby making their quality performance transparent throughout the industry.
As a leader in the health care industry, understanding historical perspectives of quality, regulatory oversight, and medical malpractice will allow you to effectively lead your organization to meet or exceed its strategic goals related to improved outcomes, increased reimbursements, and reduced cost.

-Be sympathetic with the other person’s ideas and desires.
-Appeal to the nobler motives.
-Dramatize your ideas.
-Throw down a challenge.
Be a Leader: How to Change People Without Giving Offense or Arousing Resentment:
-Begin with praise and honest appreciation.
-Call attention to people’s mistakes indirectly.
-Talk about your own mistakes before criticizing the other person.
-Ask questions instead of giving direct orders.
-Let the other person save face.
-Praise the slightest improvement and praise every improvement. Be “hearty in your approbation and lavish in your praise.”
-Give the other person a fine reputation to live up to.
-Use encouragement. Make the fault seem easy to correct.
-Make the other person happy about doing the thing you suggest.
Criticism
“Criticism is futile because it puts a person on the defensive and usually makes him strive to justify himself. Criticism is dangerous, because it wounds a person’s precious pride, hurts his sense of importance, and arouses resentment. …. Any fool can criticize, condemn and complain—and most fools do. But it takes character and self-control to be understanding and forgiving.”
People are Emotional
“When dealing with people, let us remember we are not dealing with creatures of logic. We are dealing with creatures of emotion, creatures bristling with prejudices and motivated by pride and vanity.”
The Key to Influencing Others
“The only way on earth to influence other people is to talk about what they want and show them how to get it.”
The Secret of Success
“If there is any one secret of success, it lies in the ability to get the other person’s point of view and see things from that person’s angle as well as from your own.”

Problem-Solving Application Case—
Incentives Gone Wrong, then Wrong
Again, and Wrong Again
The Wells Fargo scandal demonstrates how a company’s choice and implementation of performance management incentives can have
disastrous side effects. This activity is important because it illustrates why managers must never implement an incentive scheme without
considering as much as possible any and all effects that it may have on employees’ behavior.
The goal of this activity is for you to understand the link between the details of Wells Fargo’s incentive scheme and the employee behaviors that
resulted from it.
Read about how performance incentives led to scandal at Wells Fargo. Then, using the three-step problem-solving approach, answer the
questions that follow.
Money is an important tool for both attracting and motivating talent. If you owned a company or were its CEO, you would likely agree and
choose performance management practices to deliver such outcomes. It also is possible you’d use incentives to help align your employees’
interests, behaviors, and performance with those of the company. After all, countless companies have used incentives very successfully, but not
all. The incentives used by Wells Fargo had disastrous consequences for employees, customers, and the company itself.

Lesson Introduction
After reading this week’s materials, you will be able to define the role of police patrol and its importance as applied to law enforcement intelligence.
Lesson Objectives
● Outline and discuss early police and patrol procedures
● Evaluate modern patrol allocations
Course Objectives that apply to this lesson:
CO: (3) Demonstrate an understanding of the history of police patrol procedures from the days of early policing to modern day policing allocations.
Patrol
There are many ways to determine the best way to allocate patrol resources in a community. Some of them are covered in our studies but that is not the whole story. Keep in mind that it is more likely to be a combination of models as well as a sensitivity to specific to regional and demographic considerations.
It is important to take many variables into consideration when determining how best to utilize patrols. At the same time, we must remember to expect the unexpected and be as prepared as possible to respond. No two situations, weeks, months, or years will ever be exactly the same. This is part of what makes a career in criminal justice such a challenge and also so rewarding.
In the early 1900’s and before the work of August Vollmer, there was not much information concerning police allocation. Vollmer created a list of police functions such as crime prevention, criminal investigation, traffic control, and patrol. In the early deployment allocation models, the police were distributed based on calls for service and officer workloads. Although what appeared to be effective at the time, more research began to see potential issues with this model such as police saturation may cause a higher number of arrests. Other departments in this time frame distributed patrol units evenly without taking into account other factors such as crimes, population, distance, or number of personnel.
Preventative Patrol
As police operations moved forward, other methods of deployment emerged. In the 1960’s, law enforcement professional started to shift focus on preventative patrol methods. As discussed in previous lessons, t ...
· What does the Goodale and Humphrey (1998) article mean by the f
The document discusses a 1998 article by Goodale and Humphrey that proposed vision has two separate but interacting functions - perception and action control. It argues that separate visual systems have evolved for perception (the ventral stream) and action control (the dorsal stream), which differs from Ungerleider and Mishkin's 1982 theory that proposed one unified visual system. The document provides evidence from studies of "rewired" frogs to support the existence of separate visuomotor modules for different behaviors. It suggests this duplex approach means reconstructive and purposive views of vision are complementary rather than mutually exclusive.

Worldview & Decision-Making
The sudden neurological injury that is not likely to recover puts the person in denial if the person is somewhat conscious. It is hard to accept for even family that sudden change in care given stage. Those patients have physical problems like paralysis of facial muscles or losing sensation in the face, altered sense of smell or taste, loss of vision, swallowing difficulties, dizziness, ringing in the ear, and hearing loss. They also have altered consciousness, intellectual problems, cognitive problems, Executive functioning problems, communication problems, behavioral changes, emotional changes, sensory problems, and degenerative issues.
The majority of persons who have suffered substantial brain damage will need rehabilitation. They may have to relearn basic abilities like walking and to talk. The objective is to increase their ability to carry out everyday tasks. Rehabilitation includes a group of people who master different specialties to help patients maintain living activity. An occupational therapist, who supports the person learning, relearn or improving skills to perform everyday activities—a physical therapist who helps with mobility and relearning movement patterns, balance, and walking. The social worker or case manager facilitates access to service agencies, assists with care decisions and planning, and facilitates communication among various professionals, care providers, and family members. A rehabilitation nurse assists with discharge planning from a hospital or rehabilitation center by providing continuous rehabilitation care and services. Speech and language therapist supports the person to improve communication skills and use assistive communication devices if necessary. A recreational therapist helps the patient with Time management and leisure activities. We can also use music therapy and aroma therapy to relax patients who face incurable health conditions.

Values and Moral Survey of Students
SCORING AND INTERPRETATION: If trying to rank in order these fifteen values and morals was difficult and you felt that it was somewhat arbitrary; it was. Without the proper context, exact meaning of each, and the problem of one concept being like others, everyone gets frustrated with this exercise. To be sure, this exercise does not tell you what your real morals or values are. Rather, it is a crude representation of what they might be. At the end of the simulation, compare what you ranked as important to what your decisions were. The following are vague descriptions of the fifteen values and morals:
ASSISTANCE: The act of helping or assisting someone or the help supplied.
CANDOR: Freedom from prejudice or malice.
CHARACTER: Someone with moral excellence.
CHARITY: Generosity and helpfulness, especially toward the needy or suffering.
COMPASSION: Sympathetic consciousness of others' distress with a desire to alleviate it.
ENVIRONMENT: Concern about the world's resources (land, water, air).
EXACTING IN TRUTH: Rigid or severe in demands or requirements.
FAIRNESS: Free from bias or injustice; evenhandedness.
HONESTY: Sincerity, frankness, freedom from deceit or fraud.
INTEGRITY: Firm adherence to a code of values; incorruptibility.
PERSEVERANCE: To do or achieve something despite difficulties, failure, or opposition.
SACRIFICE: Surrender of something for the sake of something else.
SERIOUSNESS: Thoughtful in appearance or manner; requiring much thought or work relating to a matter of importance.
TOLERANCE: Sympathy or indulgence for beliefs or practices differing from or conflicting with one's own.
TRUTHFULNESS: Corresponding with reality.

· Nasser, you have some instructional components within your training plan. Unfortunately, the plan lacks detail and specific materials you would use to implement this plan. You could strengthen your plan by including the specific communication plan, assessment tools, and evaluation rubrics that you would use with the students. You mentioned generalities of instruction, but you did not include the specifics of how instruction would be implemented. What does "Pragmatic practices on basic principles of engineering statics" mean? How is this taught? What does this look like? Your assessment should be presented. For example, you noted that "Theoretical studies to be evaluate through continuous assessment exams (CAT) which should be administered twice in a semester.." You should include the specific exam with your plan. These items could be created and included, to strengthen your overall training presentation

Competencies Addressed in This Assignment
· Competency 3: Articulate how terrorism impacts policy and operations of law enforcement in America.
· Competency 5: Communicate effectively in a variety of formats.
Overview
During your past briefings to Chief Glen Edwards, several in the command staff have mentioned the need in the department for more equipment. Your readings and investigation into the response to terrorism have led you to understand that the federal government has programs where local police agencies can obtain equipment. The chief understands that there are benefits and problems with any choice, so he has asked you to create a presentation for the command staff. He wants it to address the benefits they should expect, as well as the problems this equipment can bring with it.
Instructions
Create a PowerPoint presentation for the command staff that includes the following components:
· Specify three types of military equipment or arms that are available through the federal government for local law enforcement.
· Contrast two positive and negative results associated with types of military equipment or arms that are available through the federal government for local law enforcement.
· Describe negative images caused by types of military equipment or arms that are available through the federal government for local law enforcement.
· Explain why the public may have concerns about the negative images this military equipment or arms may cause (for example, in the perception of the militarization of the police).
Requirements
· Length: Include an introduction slide, 8–10 information slides, and a references slide.
· References: Include 3–4 scholarly references in APA format.
You are required to submit your assignment to Turnitin. Once you review your results and make any needed changes, submit your paper for grading.

Primary Care Nurse practitioner (NP) Role vs. APN Roles
Compare the primary care NP role with other APN roles. What are the similarities among the roles, what are the differences, and how would you communicate the role to a healthcare provider and a consumer?
The advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) has different roles and responsibilities that nurses can undertake depending on the nature of their training. An APRN can also be referred to as a nurse practitioner (NP). There are other designated roles other than the NP such as the clinical nurse specialist (CNS), the certified nurse-midwives (CNM), and certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNA) (Everett et al., 2016). These roles have similarities and differences and many cases of overlapping responsibilities and in some cases, the need for collaboration to achieve the desired patient outcomes. The primary care NP is a specific role within the purview of NPs in which the provider is a general practitioner without any specialty training (Butler et al., 2017). The NP has roles such as completing patient assessments including conducting a physical examination. The primary care NP can also undertake diagnostic approaches such as ordering lab works and imaging procedures and providing appropriate interpretation. The NP can provide treatment and monitoring of the patient and also provide health education and other primary prevention measures.
One similarity of the role of primary NP to other APRN roles is that they have the scope to conduct independent patient assessments. All roles of the APRN have the scope of taking the patient's history, conducting a proper physical exam, and ensuring an appropriate differential diagnosis (Phillips, 2016). The APRN has completed competencies in the assessment of the patient and he/she can use these competencies to determine and fulfill patient needs. Another similarity of the role of the primary care NP to other APRNs is the role of providing patient education, mentoring, and advocating for the needs of the patient (Hanks et al., 2018). Each APRN has a responsibility to empower the patient by providing health education about their condition or the treatment process to support their autonomy. The patient is the primary decision-maker in the clinical area and providing them with education supports their ability to make proper healthcare decisions.
The role of the primary care NP is different from the role of certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNA) in the sense of anesthesia and pain management. The CRNA is a specialist in pre, intra and post-operative pain and anesthesia management and this is a role that the NP does not have scope for (Butler et al., 2017). Th ...

Viktor E. Frankl
PART ONE TRANSLATED BY ILSE LASCH PREFACE BY GORDON W. ALLPORT
With more than 4 million copies in print in the English language alone, Man's
Search for Meaning, the chilling yet inspirational story of Viktor Frankl's
struggle to hold on to hope during his three years as a prisoner in Nazi
concentration camps, is a true classic. Beacon Press is now pleased to
present a special gift edition of a work that was hailed in 1959 by Carl Rogers
as "one of the outstanding contributions to psychological thought in the last
fifty years." Frankl's training as a psychiatrist informed every waking
moment of his ordeal and allowed him a remarkable perspective on the
psychology of survival. His assertion that "the will to meaning" is the basic
motivation for human life has forever changed the way we understand our
humanity in the face of suffering.

Preface
Dr. Frankl, author-psychiatrist, sometimes asks his patients who suffer from a multitude of
torments great and small, "Why do you not commit suicide?" From their answers he can often find
the guide-line for his psycho-therapy: in one life there is love for one's children to tie to; in another
life, a talent to be used; in a third, perhaps only lingering memories worth preserving. To weave
these slender threads of a broken life into a firm pattern of me ...
