Final Written Art Project (500 words) carefully and creatively written words and sentences. Artist Statement (250 words) WRITTEN ART PROJECT Create a disjunctive or non-narrative piece that engages all three aspects of reality that we have been discussing throughout the quarter: 1) larger political, social, and economic realities 2) personal or human dramatic situation and 3) detritus of existence. Make sure each of these are well represented and that they do not merely serve as a backdrop or props for other parts of your piece. In other words, make sure each of these aspects of reality is given its due as determining of your or others reality. Possible Strategies and Advice: Switch between first and third person perspectives. Make use of actual seeings—what you see. Describe and only occasionally explain or meditate. Meditate a great deal but be sure you are specific . Enact and don’t preach. Create a concept (a title for your piece) that gives the reader a sense of the intent of your work. This concept should serve to suggest complementary or conflictual relations between the different parts of your piece. Ultimately in placing all your parts together, in proximity to one another, you want the “whole” to be greater than the sum of the parts. ARTIST STATEMENT Please describe the intent of your piece and how you think its disjunctive form allows you to create a sense of reality that you wish to create. Please consider key words and concepts from the module syllabus as well as the ideas that have emerged from course discussions and thought challenges. You might also find these artist’s statements of use: Chekov Remove everything that has no relevance to the story. If you say in the first chapter that there is a rifle hanging on the wall, in the second or third chapter it absolutely must go off. If it’s not going to be fired, it shouldn’t be hanging there.

Final Project The Final Project should demonstrate an understanding of the reading assignments, class discussions, your own research and the application of new knowledge. It should utilize previous skills developed in foundational health care courses and apply them within the context and viewpoint of a health care administrator and their role in managing health and human services. For the Final Project, select one of the following topics and conduct scholarly and professional research while integrating the course’s learning outcomes to address a selected topic: Research specific leadership and management traits and theories necessary for managing a multidisciplinary and multicultural health care organization to promote organizational effectiveness. Present how strategic planning, performance improvement, and information systems are interrelated and fundamental to the delivery of quality health care. Examine the financial characteristics of health care delivery along with managing costs, revenues, and human resources. Analyze ethical and legal concepts, including specific federal regulations, required of health care organizations to ensure the delivery of high quality health care that protects patient safety. Research Requirements Academic research and papers must meet certain standards of quality that are recognized by the academic community. What constitutes quality academic research? The use of primary (original), credible sources written by experts in the field of study. Ensuring secondary sources are supported by research in primary sources. Making sure all research is relevant and that material used is pertinent to the area of study. In graduate work, the use of peer-reviewed journal articles (journal articles reviewed by recognized experts in the relevant field of study) is required. Keep in mind that educational websites may be appropriate, in some cases, but should be evaluated carefully. The Ashford University Library offers many excellent databases and other resources to assist you in conducting scholarly research. What sources are not acceptable for academic research and referencing? Encyclopedias Dictionaries Wikipedia, other wikis, or blogs Websites and other sources that do not provide quality researched materials (e.g., they do not use credible sources to support the information in the document). All research must reflect professional academic protocol and must be documented according to APA standards as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center. Creating the Final Project You may choose to present your research is the form of an eight- to ten-page research paper (excluding title and reference pages) or a comprehensive 10- to 15-slide PowerPoint presentation (excluding title and reference slides) with detailed speaker notes. In either case, the content of the assignment must include each of the elements listed below: Introduction Describe the issue. Include why it was selected, the perspective of your appr.

Final Project Now it's your turn! Below is all the information given on a training program needed, called Effective Communication. You are a trainer in the given situation. Please submit the following: Training Needs Assessment (refer to previous assignment DST Systems for assessment template) Powerpoint covering information provided and your own research, no less than 10 slides 2-page paper summarizing how this training will be effective and how it should be evaluated. Situation: Tim Smith the IT manager comes to you and says "My project coordinators are in a slump; they just are not producing their usual caliber of work. I need to find out what the problem is. No one on the project team knows what is going on. The communcation my project coordinators are giving is coming across as rude, which in turn keeps moral low and the teams are not doing the work. I was hoping you would be able to put together an Effective Communication training for them to help get everyone back on the right track." There are 10 project coordinators in the IT department. Two of the project coordinator's are in the organization's Bangkok office. Tim wants the training to last no longer than 4 hours and wants it to be face to face in a class room with you, the trainer. He does not want to fly the Bangkok assoicates in and would like you to set up a Skype session with them during your training. He also wants you to set up weekly coaching sessions with each project manager and himself for a month after the training is completed. Training Purchased from USA Training: Effective Communication You are to use this information, but are not limited to it. Tim wants to make sure this information is covered in the training as he went online and bought it from USA Training, however he is open to what research you find. He wants the training to be interactive and requested that you included at least 1 activity around communication in the training. Effective Communcation: Introduction People in organizations typically spend over 75% of their time in an interpersonal situation; thus it is no surprise to find that at the root of a large number of organizational problems is poor communications. Effective communication is an essential component of organizational success whether it is at the interpersonal, inter-group, intra-group, organizational, or external levels. In this chapter we will cover the basic process of communication and then we will cover some of the most difficult communication issues managers’ face-providing constructive and effective feedback and performance appraisal. The Communication Process Although all of us have been communicating with others since our infancy, the process of transmitting information from an individual (or group) to another is a very complex process with many sources of potential error. In any communication at least some of the "meaning" lost in simple transmission of a message from the sender to the receiver. In many situations a lot of the .

Final Project Analysis of an Offender (15 pages As a criminal justice professional, you will likely deal with offenders on a daily basis. Understanding the causes of criminal behavior is essential to learning how to handle offenders, how offenders are most effectively rehabilitated, and how to protect society from criminals. All too often, however, theoretical explanations for criminal behavior are never applied to criminal behavior in real-life situations. The Final Project in this class is designed for you to apply what you have learned about in this class about the causes of criminal behavior to a real-life criminal. You are responsible for selecting one specific criminal. You must be able to research and track down detailed information about this specific criminal. Be sure that there is enough information surrounding his or her: Upbringing Behavior over the course of a lifetime Social relationships Specific details pertaining to criminal offending patterns Once you locate an offender who you wish to research, you will need to create an analysis of the offender that takes into consideration the following: Detailed Overview (2–3 pages) Provide a detailed overview of the offender, and his or her life and crimes. Discuss the nature of the offender’s crimes. Explain how his or her criminal offending is consistent or inconsistent with what is known about the nature of criminal behavior. Causes of Crime (8–10 pages) This section of the paper is the most important and should contain a sufficient amount of detail pertaining to all of the potential causes of crime based on what is known about the offender. Discuss the potential social and environmental causes of the offender’s behavior. Discuss the potential psychological causes of the offender’s behavior. Discuss the potential biological and genetic causes of the offender’s behavior. Type of Offender (2–3 pages) Identify the type of offender. Based on the type of offender that you are researching, explain some of the unique issues presented by this type of offender. Discuss the obstacles to rehabilitation for this specific type of offender. Apprehension (2–3 pages) Discuss whether criminal profiling could have been used to apprehend this criminal sooner. Explain how the details of this specific offender could be used in the apprehension of future criminals. Policy Implications (1–2 pages) Briefly discuss some of the policy implications that might flow directly from what is now known about this offender. Discuss how policy could be revamped in terms of prevention and rehabilitation. .
