Assignment 1: LASA 2—Prevention Strategies
Treatment programs cannot always be 100% effective, and many substance abusers relapse into drug abuse after days, months, or even years of sobriety. With the marginal success of treatment programs, it is even more important that people never start using drugs. As such, prevention strategies are of utmost importance.
Review the case study. Using your module readings and the Argosy University online library resources, research methods of increasing awareness about substance abuse and dependence.
Develop a PowerPoint presentation including the following:
Identify and describe two prevention strategies.
Explain ways of determining whether loved ones have a problem with drugs using the current DSM characteristics of substance use disorders.
Address the effectiveness of current treatment strategies in the United States.
Explain polypharmacology
Address the possible treatment options and treatment difficulties for someone who is dependent on two substances.
Develop an 8–10-slide presentation (complete with speakers notes) in PowerPoint format. Apply APA standards to citation of sources. Be sure to include a title slide and a list of references. Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M5_A1.ppt. By Monday, November 2, 2015, deliver your assignment to the M5: Assignment 1 Dropbox.

Case Study Part I
Aaliyah is a 25-year-old, single, Caucasian woman, who lives in an apartment with a friend. Aaliyah moved out of her parents’ house at 18, after completing high school, to remove herself from her father’s alcohol use. Aaliyah smokes cigarettes and drinks alcohol occasionally.
Aaliyah is dissatisfied with her current job. She works full time as an administrative assistant at a contracting company, but she is ready for a career change. Aaliyah has decided to return to school to pursue a degree in criminal justice. She will be working and taking classes at the same time, fitting her school schedule around her work schedule.
During her first session of school, Aaliyah notices that she is having difficulty staying awake to complete her schoolwork at night after a full workday. Aaliyah does not want her grades to fall, as her education is very important t ...
Aaliyah, a 25-year-old woman, is struggling to balance her full-time job with pursuing her criminal justice degree. She has started drinking large amounts of coffee at night to stay awake for schoolwork but finds it is no longer effective. She takes amphetamines before an exam and receives an A, leading her to increasingly rely on the drugs to stay awake for school and work. Her use has grown to taking multiple pills and she experiences side effects like headaches but continues use due to academic and job success.

Project Design Action Plan: abuse among teenagers.
Project Overview
For my project this will be my topic; Factors that influence substance abuse among teenagers. We are all away of how substance abuse has become a popular trend among the teenagers but what most people do not know is the contributing factors to this popular trend of teenagers using substances. Substance abuse is referred as the abuse of illegal substances such as cocaine, heroine and marijuana or even alcohol or prescription medicines. Overdosing can be a form of abuse; however, this is a form of drug abuse since it is abusing the medical prescription. There are two types of substance abuse, which include; alcohol dependence and drug use. However, there is a slight difference between substance abuse and drug abuse. Substance is the abuse of illicit drugs such as cocaine while drug abuse is use of illegal drugs and wrong medical prescription although sometimes drug abuse is categorized under substance abuse. I think I’m interested in this topic for a long time because I grew up in a dysfunctional home due to substance abuse which led to breaking up of my family.
So, it’s more a self-motivation and to create awareness of the factors that lead to substance abuse. The society is only aware of several factors that influence substance abuse among teenagers due to lack of awareness and education on the topic. However, I believe the most common factor is due to lack of psychological and emotional support which leads to anxiety and depression and therefore, teenagers find refuge in use substances. Therefore, the desire to be able to pass this important knowledge to the world is why I am interested in the topic. I think going through with this topic, I will learn a lot of things such as the adverse effects of substance abuse and how it affects mental health of those who abuse substances.
Past GEP Connection
In school or rather at class we are only taught about the basic knowledge of substance use because it’s just education, a topic in the syllabus that has to be covered however, those who have gone through the effects of it are aware of how destructive substance abuse can be. However, that little information provided in school can be useful in preventing someone from getting addicted to substance abuse. I earlier stated about how my family became dysfunctional because of substance abuse. My dad was a victim of substance abuse which he became an addiction and same happened to my elder brother who became dependent on alcohol and could not continue with education, I was very traumatized by the situation and that’s why I grew interest about this topic, therefore, I plan to use the classroom knowledge and experience and personal experience for my project. I think that my past experiences tie with present as I will be using the past experience with my present to make the research real and useful.

This document is a research proposal from a student studying for a bachelor's degree in computer science. The proposal aims to study the fear of using computers and how to help people feel safe when using computers without anxiety. The student will conduct interviews and online research over 7 weeks. Initial results from table 1 show that 19% of students report moderate to high computer phobia. The student concludes that addressing computer phobia is important and recommendations include making technology safe and helping people understand computer use without fear.
The document discusses balancing technology use, especially for children and students. It notes that constant connectivity has changed how people think and interact. A 2011 study found over half of teens would give up their sense of smell before technology. The document advocates treating technology balance like nutrition, with open family discussions and agreed-upon limits. It provides tips for creating a "My Tech Use Policy" with parents to limit screen time and promote breaks, family agreements, and time management. Overall it promotes a preventative, community-based approach involving students, parents, and schools.

Is Social Media Doing More Harm Than You Think?
Introduction
Social media is a part of almost everyone’s daily lives. Social media is utilized by different people for different reasons. The biggest platforms as of today include Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, and YouTube. These platforms were created, most importantly, to keep people connected and in touch with friends and family. It is also a tool for businesses to reach different audiences. Social media can be wonderful if used properly. Unfortunately, these platforms are not being used correctly, and that is having negative effects on its users.
Many researchers have studied social media and its affects on people. For example, Nicholas Dantuono wrote about the positive and negatives found during his research. He claimed children are interacting less with peers in real life due to social media. He also talks about how social media is not going anywhere, so it is best for society to learn to live with it in a healthy way (Dantuono, 2015). In addition, in the Journal of Public Health, a study is provided with results showing electronic screen time affects children’s social development (Yang et al., 2019). Furthermore, Nazir Hawi and Maya Samaha wrote an article to “identify similarities and differences in relationships between technology addictions and personality characteristics, especially traits, self-esteem, and self-construal” (Hawi & Samaha, 2019). Moreover, Gwenn Schurgin O'Keeffe and Kathleen Clarke-Pearson wrote a journal about the positive and negative affects that social media has on children and to explain the importance of parents to monitor their children’s social media platforms. Likewise, in the Journal of Applied Biobehavioral Research, a study is conducted in order to “identify specific social media behaviors related to major depressive disorder (MDD)” (Robinson et al., 2019).
The information that is being neglected in this research is a specific solution to the issue. Researchers have mentioned potential solutions, but not how it should be put into effect. Since social media is not going anywhere, there needs to be more focus on how children/adolescents are being negatively affected by it every day. The question here is, how do we change the impact social media is having on children, for the better? Children must be taught at a young age the “do’s and don’ts “of social media platforms and parents .
1. The document discusses how music therapy can be used as a treatment for Autism Spectrum Disorder. It focuses on how music therapy can help improve social skills like eye contact, communication, and joint attention for those with ASD.
2. One study looked at using music therapy in group sessions for 17 children ages 6-9 with ASD and found it increased eye contact among peers more than traditional social skills therapy alone.
3. Music therapy provides sensory and social experiences through activities like music making, games, and telling jokes set to music. This can help children with ASD practice social interactions.
This presentation provided information on internet addictions, including how to identify them, prevent them, and help students who are addicted. It defined internet addiction as compulsive online behavior that interferes with daily life. Warning signs included loss of control over internet use and feeling anxious or depressed when unable to use it. The presentation offered resources for teachers and parents on addressing internet addiction with students, including monitoring use, setting limits, and identifying underlying issues. It suggested implementing a school-wide action plan to educate students, parents, and teachers on internet addiction.

Final ProjectThe Final Project is a descriptive narrative divide.docxAKHIL969626
Final Project
The Final Project is a descriptive narrative divided in two sections. Section One requires you to analyze a case study of a family in crisis, to include a child, an adolescent, and a set of parents. Section Two is a self-reflection of your abilities to be an effective clinician who works with children, adolescents, and families.
This Final Project is a 10- to 15-page paper and will be due Day 4 of Week 11. Include the following sections in your Final Project:
Section One:
Choose one of the three Case Studies focusing on a family in crisis. Each member of the family has unique issues that you must address. You must also determine the primary problems (this may include diagnostic impressions but not formal diagnoses), intervention, prevention, and education required to assist the family. In your project, do the following:
· Identify the client and the presenting problem or symptoms. Briefly explain if anyone else is involved and how they contribute to the problem. Explain if anyone other than the “identified client” also could be identified as a client. If so, describe who and why.
· Briefly describe any underlying problems or potential mental health diagnoses contributing to the primary problem that should be noted as you proceed with the client.
· Briefly describe the presenting problem from the family’s perspective and what theoretical perspective you will use to assess, analyze, and develop a treatment plan for this case.
· Identify the unique needs of each individual in the family.
· Briefly describe the culture of the family, societal expectations, gender roles, and cultural norms. Briefly explain how each of these might contribute to the problem.
· Briefly explain the child and adolescent culture and at least one general contributing factor to the identified issue and explain how this may or may not impact the family dynamics.
· Describe one intervention you might use for the identified client that would address the presenting problem and any related psychosocial factors.
· Justify your intervention with evidence-based research to support the use of the interventions you have identified.
· Briefly describe one preventative technique that you might use to reduce the likelihood of further crisis or the perpetuation of the current crisis.
Section Two:
Reflect on your journal entries throughout the course and consider what you may have learned about yourself as a future clinician working with children, adolescents, and families. Explain any areas of strength you have identified by completing this course that will assist you in working with children, adolescents, and families.
· Explain any areas of strength you identified as you worked on this course that will assist you in working with children, adolescents, and families.
· Explain any areas of knowledge you might want to further develop to become more effective as a clinician working with children, adolescents, and families.
· Explain any insights you had or conclusions you d ...
This document outlines a 9-day lesson plan for teaching high school students about the effects of substance use on the human body. The plan involves discussion, role-playing scenarios, creating graphic organizers and anti-substance advertisements, poems and videos. Students are assessed based on completing an anti-substance video project and group work on a tobacco advertising or alcohol billboard project, with participation in class discussions. The teacher reflects that incorporating arts activities helped students creatively explore and demonstrate their understanding of the topic.

Scene 1
A is on his phone, looking at Twitter and Instagram
B is A’s friend and recently doing social media addiction research.
B comes inside this room
B: Hey A, how’s your day!
A: Great, Look I just found another interesting app called Instagram!
B: Not again! You’re always on your phone!
A: I just downloaded it 3 days ago, it’s fun, you should try it.
B: Did you know
(switch to data information)
that 60% of adolescent’s sleeping patterns are affected by the use of their phones an hour before bed. This can lead to sleep deprivation. The use of social media keeps our brain highly active and therefore it takes longer to get into a deep sleep, which means we don’t get enough sleep for our brains to properly function. Sleep deprivation is one of the key factors to developing depression and can lead to an overall in the quality of an someone’s life.
A: So, if I stop playing on my phone before I sleep then I will be fine? Are there any other negative effects of using social media?
(switch to data information)
B: There are so many more negative effects that social media has on us. Adults spend around 32% of their total work time on social media, and this causes a major reduction in the overall productivity, studies show that it reduces by 13%. A decline in productivity rates can directly affect the profitability of an organisation. Heavy use of social media can also have a negative impact on an individual’s mental health. Heavy users of social media have a 13%-66% higher chance of developing depression. This is a due to low self-esteem and isolation from heavy use of social media, as you are constantly looking and comparing your life to everyone else’s. It also leads to less physical activity and less opportunity to develop real authentic relationships. Do you find that you prefer to communicate with people over social media instead of face to face?
A: Yes I do!
B: The other one of the major risks of using social media is exposure to online abuse from “bullies” or “trolls”. Around one in 13 people in Australian have experienced some kind of online abuse, such as threats of death, rape, sexual assault, and stalking. Race-based abusive language is also common. A portion of these people who were exposed to online abuse had to seek help from a doctor or psychologist which negatively impacts work productivity. As a result, the loss of productivity has estimated to cost the Aust.
The document discusses a persuasive text that argues for banning cell phones in schools. It provides context and definitions to help understand the reading. The text cites evidence from studies in countries like the UK, Spain, and Norway that found student test scores increased significantly after cell phone bans. It says the removal of distractions allows students to better concentrate and learn. The writing uses the propaganda technique of testimonial to support its argument with statistics, and calls cell phones "parasites" to negatively frame them.
Social media can have both positive and negative effects. Negatively, negative posts on social media can inspire more negative posts from readers. Also, cyberbullying is easy since fake accounts can be made anonymously. Additionally, following addicted or wealthy social media users can inspire addiction issues in others. However, positively, social media allows for easy education from experts without costs and makes businesses more profitable by providing low-cost advertising. Overall, social media has advantages and disadvantages that users must consider.
Whether you are a student, parent, an educator, or a concerned friend of the family, there are ten steps you can take to stop and prevent bullying:
1. Pay attention. There are many warning signs that may point to a bullying problem, such as unexplained injuries, lost or destroyed personal items, changes in eating habits, and avoidance of school or other social situations. However, every student may not exhibit warning signs, or may go to great lengths to hide it. This is where paying attention is most valuable. Engage students on a daily basis and ask open-ended questions that encourage conversation
Laboratory ReportsLaboratory reports are an overview of the ex.docxsmile790243
Laboratory Reports
Laboratory reports are an overview of the experiment written in a paragraph. They are similar in form to an abstract. The report should provide a brief introduction that includes the purpose of the experiment. The methods used in the experiment should include enough detail to understand what was done, but not as much detail as a methods section of a research paper. The results of the experiment should include the general outcome and include any error calculations. The discussion should give a brief summary of the experiment and include a brief discussion of the sources of error.
The report should be no longer than 1 page, single spaced, 12 point font (similar to an abstract).
Reports are due on the day of the next lab unless otherwise stated.
Introduction:
Hi everyone. My name is Hassan. I am going to talk about social media advantages and disadvantages. most of the people take the advantages and stay connected with their friends, and informed about every breaking news.
Statistic
This is recent statistic of number of people who use social media site.
The first and main advantage of the social media is connectivity. Regardless of the location you can connect with anyone to learn and share your thoughts or even special events in your life with everyone you know.
Information Spreads Incredibly Fast (stay informed)
Another advantage is you can stay informed about Breaking news and other important information. so You can easily update your information from the latest happenings around in the world because information can spread around really fast on social media sites.
Marketing: Anotheradvantage of Social media its quickly becoming one of the most important marketing strategy. It is one of the most cost-efficient marketing methods is being used nowadays. its dramatically improve company’s sales, customer service, and increase audience number.
Disadvantages
Communication
The use of the social media sites has led to poor communication.
Some people prefer to be in isolated places so they can participate in the social media sites. This lead to people do not have the time for physical communications which lead to poor communication skills.
Privacy and safety
Social media platforms also increase the risk of losing our privacy. Lots of information have been shared in social media sites. Like Birthday days of birth, their religious political views and their current place of work or study in public. this information might misused to cause damage to another person. For example, I know a friend who share his travel trip and tags the people with him in the trip and his account was public in Instagram. His house got stolen the following day. Also, there is huge amounts of data collected by social media sites stored in databases and may be hacked and leaked.
Health:
There is also another problem that is related to health when it comes to the use of the social media sites. Studies have found out that there are many peopl ...
This document outlines a student campaign to raise awareness of drug and alcohol abuse among teenagers. It begins with an introduction discussing the pressures teens face and how media often glamorizes substance abuse. It then reviews research showing high rates of teen drug and alcohol use and the importance of prevention programs. The document discusses using agenda setting theory and media literacy to influence teen attitudes through outlets they engage with like social media, TV and radio. It proposes distributing PSAs, posters and humorous video public service announcements in schools to educate teens on the dangers of substance abuse.

PART 1 OVERVIEWIn this project you are asked to conduct your own.docxsherni1
PART 1 OVERVIEW
In this project you are asked to conduct your own research into two variables that interest you. This project will give you an opportunity to apply the skills and techniques you learn in this class and to produce a professional report using appropriate technology. This is a MAJOR, on-going assignment and is worth 15% of your grade; the equivalent of one unit exam grade.
Your projects will be graded in stages (Part 1, Part 2, Part 3) according to the attached rubrics.
To be successful on your project you must:
· Read and follow instructions carefully.
· Work according to the timeline provided and submit work on time.
· 10% will be deducted for each calendar day the project is submitted after the due date. A project is considered “submitted” when it is available for the professor to view on Canvas. No credit is given after 5 days late.
· Students who fail to submit earlier parts of the project may still submit later parts of the project as long as their topic has been approved by their instructor and as long as they collect their own data. Points will still be taken away for lack of completeness unless those prior sections are completed and included.
· Write clearly, using appropriate terminology and accurate mathematical notation. College-level writing is expected, as is the use of correct grammar.
· If you need help with writing, feel free to use the HCC Writing Center: For further information, see the HCC Web page under the heading “Writing Center” or call the Writing Center at (443) 518-4101. PGCC students at the Laurel College Center should see the PGCC Writing Center for assistance.
· Submit a neat, professional report typed using your choice of word processing software (including a mathematical notation package) and including printouts and diagrams from your choice of statistical software/technology.
· In particular, embedded graphs or charts and/or computer printouts will be expected as part of the report. Hand-drawn graphs are not acceptable.
· Please note: Excel should be used only with caution as it does not consistently follow accepted statistical practices.
· Original work is expected. This means that students who are repeating the course are expected to create an entirely new project using two new variables of interest.
· For example, you might watch a YouTube video on how to use StatCrunch or have a peer show you how to create a histogram using a different data set (not the one in your project), then try it yourself with your data set. You might consult your textbook or your instructor about a concept, but then put the explanation into your own words.
· Getting Help:
· For this project, you may consult any resource for general help and advice (including your instructor, tutors (LAC, HR230), classmates, or the internet) provided that your write-up (computations, explanations, and embedded diagrams) are your own work.
· Submission guidelines:
· You should submit your project via the Canvas link as a PDF or Word.

Final ProjectThe Final Project is a descriptive narrative divide.docxAKHIL969626
Final Project
The Final Project is a descriptive narrative divided in two sections. Section One requires you to analyze a case study of a family in crisis, to include a child, an adolescent, and a set of parents. Section Two is a self-reflection of your abilities to be an effective clinician who works with children, adolescents, and families.
This Final Project is a 10- to 15-page paper and will be due Day 4 of Week 11. Include the following sections in your Final Project:
Section One:
Choose one of the three Case Studies focusing on a family in crisis. Each member of the family has unique issues that you must address. You must also determine the primary problems (this may include diagnostic impressions but not formal diagnoses), intervention, prevention, and education required to assist the family. In your project, do the following:
· Identify the client and the presenting problem or symptoms. Briefly explain if anyone else is involved and how they contribute to the problem. Explain if anyone other than the “identified client” also could be identified as a client. If so, describe who and why.
· Briefly describe any underlying problems or potential mental health diagnoses contributing to the primary problem that should be noted as you proceed with the client.
· Briefly describe the presenting problem from the family’s perspective and what theoretical perspective you will use to assess, analyze, and develop a treatment plan for this case.
· Identify the unique needs of each individual in the family.
· Briefly describe the culture of the family, societal expectations, gender roles, and cultural norms. Briefly explain how each of these might contribute to the problem.
· Briefly explain the child and adolescent culture and at least one general contributing factor to the identified issue and explain how this may or may not impact the family dynamics.
· Describe one intervention you might use for the identified client that would address the presenting problem and any related psychosocial factors.
· Justify your intervention with evidence-based research to support the use of the interventions you have identified.
· Briefly describe one preventative technique that you might use to reduce the likelihood of further crisis or the perpetuation of the current crisis.
Section Two:
Reflect on your journal entries throughout the course and consider what you may have learned about yourself as a future clinician working with children, adolescents, and families. Explain any areas of strength you have identified by completing this course that will assist you in working with children, adolescents, and families.
· Explain any areas of strength you identified as you worked on this course that will assist you in working with children, adolescents, and families.
· Explain any areas of knowledge you might want to further develop to become more effective as a clinician working with children, adolescents, and families.
· Explain any insights you had or conclusions you d ...

Scene 1
A is on his phone, looking at Twitter and Instagram
B is A’s friend and recently doing social media addiction research.
B comes inside this room
B: Hey A, how’s your day!
A: Great, Look I just found another interesting app called Instagram!
B: Not again! You’re always on your phone!
A: I just downloaded it 3 days ago, it’s fun, you should try it.
B: Did you know
(switch to data information)
that 60% of adolescent’s sleeping patterns are affected by the use of their phones an hour before bed. This can lead to sleep deprivation. The use of social media keeps our brain highly active and therefore it takes longer to get into a deep sleep, which means we don’t get enough sleep for our brains to properly function. Sleep deprivation is one of the key factors to developing depression and can lead to an overall in the quality of an someone’s life.
A: So, if I stop playing on my phone before I sleep then I will be fine? Are there any other negative effects of using social media?
(switch to data information)
B: There are so many more negative effects that social media has on us. Adults spend around 32% of their total work time on social media, and this causes a major reduction in the overall productivity, studies show that it reduces by 13%. A decline in productivity rates can directly affect the profitability of an organisation. Heavy use of social media can also have a negative impact on an individual’s mental health. Heavy users of social media have a 13%-66% higher chance of developing depression. This is a due to low self-esteem and isolation from heavy use of social media, as you are constantly looking and comparing your life to everyone else’s. It also leads to less physical activity and less opportunity to develop real authentic relationships. Do you find that you prefer to communicate with people over social media instead of face to face?
A: Yes I do!
B: The other one of the major risks of using social media is exposure to online abuse from “bullies” or “trolls”. Around one in 13 people in Australian have experienced some kind of online abuse, such as threats of death, rape, sexual assault, and stalking. Race-based abusive language is also common. A portion of these people who were exposed to online abuse had to seek help from a doctor or psychologist which negatively impacts work productivity. As a result, the loss of productivity has estimated to cost the Aust.
The document discusses a persuasive text that argues for banning cell phones in schools. It provides context and definitions to help understand the reading. The text cites evidence from studies in countries like the UK, Spain, and Norway that found student test scores increased significantly after cell phone bans. It says the removal of distractions allows students to better concentrate and learn. The writing uses the propaganda technique of testimonial to support its argument with statistics, and calls cell phones "parasites" to negatively frame them.
Social media can have both positive and negative effects. Negatively, negative posts on social media can inspire more negative posts from readers. Also, cyberbullying is easy since fake accounts can be made anonymously. Additionally, following addicted or wealthy social media users can inspire addiction issues in others. However, positively, social media allows for easy education from experts without costs and makes businesses more profitable by providing low-cost advertising. Overall, social media has advantages and disadvantages that users must consider.
Whether you are a student, parent, an educator, or a concerned friend of the family, there are ten steps you can take to stop and prevent bullying:
1. Pay attention. There are many warning signs that may point to a bullying problem, such as unexplained injuries, lost or destroyed personal items, changes in eating habits, and avoidance of school or other social situations. However, every student may not exhibit warning signs, or may go to great lengths to hide it. This is where paying attention is most valuable. Engage students on a daily basis and ask open-ended questions that encourage conversation
Laboratory ReportsLaboratory reports are an overview of the ex.docxsmile790243
Laboratory Reports
Laboratory reports are an overview of the experiment written in a paragraph. They are similar in form to an abstract. The report should provide a brief introduction that includes the purpose of the experiment. The methods used in the experiment should include enough detail to understand what was done, but not as much detail as a methods section of a research paper. The results of the experiment should include the general outcome and include any error calculations. The discussion should give a brief summary of the experiment and include a brief discussion of the sources of error.
The report should be no longer than 1 page, single spaced, 12 point font (similar to an abstract).
Reports are due on the day of the next lab unless otherwise stated.

Some people prefer to be in isolated places so they can participate in the social media sites. This lead to people do not have the time for physical communications which lead to poor communication skills.
Privacy and safety
Social media platforms also increase the risk of losing our privacy. Lots of information have been shared in social media sites. Like Birthday days of birth, their religious political views and their current place of work or study in public. this information might misused to cause damage to another person. For example, I know a friend who share his travel trip and tags the people with him in the trip and his account was public in Instagram. His house got stolen the following day. Also, there is huge amounts of data collected by social media sites stored in databases and may be hacked and leaked.

The document summarizes three pieces of art selected to represent art from antiquity to modern times. The first is a sculpture of Ares, the Greek god of war, created by ancient Greek sculptor Scopas. The second is Michelangelo's statue of Moses from the tomb of Pope Julius II. The third depicts biblical figures on a wall and was created by Dutch artist Claus Sluter. The common theme among the works is the depiction of religious personalities from the times in which they were created, showing how artistic preferences and subjects addressed by artists have evolved over the centuries.
Part 1 Post a ResponseVarious reform groups with various causes.docxsherni1
Part 1: Post a Response
Various reform groups with various causes developed in the US in the late 1800s and early 1900s; these are loosely called “Progressives” as they aimed to use government policies or science to improve and advance society. Also, this period was a time when the US started as a major player in international conflicts—first in the “Spanish American War and then in World War I. There were deep isolationist sentiments about such overseas entanglements, and President Wilson first has one position and then the other.
Choose and discuss (in a full paragraph or two) one of the following two topics related to the late 1800s and early 1900s.
In the Progressive Era (roughly 1890–1920), multiple groups advocated for reforms in various aspects of government, society, and the economy. Discuss here the “muckrakers” and Taylor’s “scientific management”.
Explain briefly the approach and aim of the “muckrakers” and that of F. W. Taylor.
Compare their approaches and describe your feelings about them, and relate some modern situation that reminds you of one of these approaches and reform causes.
Identify the source(s) where you read about the reform cause.
From the text, Wilson did not maintain his own campaign slogan (“He kept us out of war”).
Explain with some specifics why Wilson became pro-war. Describe your own feelings on that issue when you look back at it, and whether he was right to change.
Briefly, identify a similar international consideration today—or of the last 20 years, and what lesson might be drawn from the example in Wilson’s time.
Identify the source(s) where you read about Wilson.

Part 2: Case Studies
Read the following case studies to inform Part 2 of the assignment.
Case Study 1: Mandy
Mandy is a 3-year-old preschool student who has been diagnosed with ASD and is nonverbal. She is sensitive to loud noises and certain textures. She was recently referred to a child study team by the family physician. Her family doctor described her as having low muscle tone, delayed communication, and delayed motor skills. She uses her behavior and physicality for communicating needs. Mandy does point and reach for desired items, but she has not been able to reproduce any signs, despite her parents' attempts to teach her sign language for the past year. She often appears to be disengaged when playing or when her parents are encouraging her to sign. Her eye contact is minimal, tantrums are common, crying happens daily, and change is very difficult for her.
Case Study 2: Wilson
Wilson is an 11-year-old boy who was diagnosed with ASD as a toddler. He is physically healthy, but he is very sensitive to hot, cold, noises, and pain. He does not like crowds or lines and struggles with class assemblies, lunch time periods, and recesses. He is in a self-contained special education classroom on a public school campus and attends general education class for music only. He is capable of doing some general education class work, but his behavior is far too unpredictable to make further placement in a general education classroom feasible at this time. He can be impulsive and destructive when frustrated or overwhelmed. He is quite social and enjoys interacting with his peers in both settings; however, it can be difficult to discern when he will have a meltdown. He has tantrums and destroys property, and his participation in some aspects of school is limited. When changes in the schedule occur, such as school assemblies or fire drills, Wilson has a hard time adjusting and oftentimes tips over desks or kicks. He has not been able to attend the last two field trips due to his parents’ concerns for his safety.
Case Study 3: Cole
Cole is a 16-year-old boy with ASD and cognitive delays. He was born three weeks premature and required intensive neonatal care for six weeks after birth, but he is currently in good health. He passed all hearing and vision screenings. Cole uses gestures and a few verbal words to express his needs and wants; for example yes/no and hungry. He uses a few sign language gestures and some picture symbols, but mostly relies on a communication device in order to communicate with teachers, peers, and parents.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Case Study Part I
Aaliyah is a 25-year-old, single, Caucasian woman, who lives in
an apartment with a friend. Aaliyah moved out of her parents’
house at 18, after completing high school, to remove herself
from her father’s alcohol use. Aaliyah smokes cigarettes and
drinks alcohol occasionally.
Aaliyah is dissatisfied with her current job. She works full time
as an administrative assistant at a contracting company, but she
is ready for a career change. Aaliyah has decided to return to
school to pursue a degree in criminal justice. She will be
working and taking classes at the same time, fitting her school
schedule around her work schedule.
3. During her first session of school, Aaliyah notices that she is
having difficulty staying awake to complete her schoolwork at
night after a full workday. Aaliyah does not want her grades to
fall, as her education is very important to her. However, she
cannot afford to reduce her work hours. Her roommate makes
Aaliyah coffee at night to help her stay awake. Soon, Aaliyah is
drinking three or more cups of coffee a night to help her stay
awake to complete her schoolwork.
Case Study Part II
Aaliyah continues to struggle with balancing her work hours
and her schoolwork. She has been drinking coffee to help her
stay awake, but it is no longer working. She has an exam
coming up and needs to stay up to study.
Aaliyah decides to take an amphetamine to stay awake to study
for the exam. She promises herself that she will only take it this
one time for the exam. The drug allows her to stay awake and
alert while she is studying for the exam. She also feels that she
is learning the material better as a result of the amphetamine.
When the grades are in, Aaliyah receives an A on her work.
As the semester continues, Aaliyah turns to amphetamines more
and more often to help her stay awake to complete her
schoolwork. Soon, Aaliyah finds that one pill no longer keeps
her awake as long as she needs.
She starts taking more than one pill at a time. She knows that
taking amphetamines so often is not good for her health, and
she finds she experiences an increase in headaches when she
takes them, but she continues to take them because they are
helping her be successful in school and at work.
Case Study Part III
Aaliyah had been taking amphetamines regularly for two months
and had been experiencing the physiological, psychological, and
toxic effects of chronic amphetamine use. She had started
drinking alcohol to help her sleep at night.
One morning she was driving to work and feeling the effects of
a hangover from the night before. She was not concentrating on
the road, and ran into the back of a car that had stopped in front
4. of her. Luckily, none of the people involved in the accident was
seriously injured.Page 2 of 2 Introduction to Addictions and
Addictive Behavior This incident served as a “wake up call” for
Aaliyah, and she decided to get help for her problems. However,
because she is now using both amphetamines and alcohol, she is
not sure what treatment program to enter.
Aaliyah would like to help other people avoid the troubles
caused by drugs. She would like to give a presentation at her
college to discuss her experiences and give students several
prevention options, as well as ways to tell if their friends or
loved ones have a drug problem.

5. Introduction
Technology is a significant component for human development
in the 21th century. With the aid of technology, our next
generations would develop learning skills easier, faster, and
more effective. Tablets and smartphones are the most popular
sources of technology nowadays. Easy to use, attractive, and
convenient are the key features that make tablets the most
useful technology for children development. However, there are
negativities within the use of tablets. The main goal of this
paper is to prove to the readers the benefits as well as the
negative effects of tablets on future generations. This is seen
through a lack of functions, security risk to users, social
problems, and potential cause of physical and mental diseases.
Background
Tablets have been the most popular gadgets within our society
in the first half of 2010s. However, many tablets have come out
way before that time period but made no remarkable success.
According to Huffington Post, in the first decade of 21st
century, some of the first tablets were the Compaq Tablet
(2001), Microsoft Smart Display (2002), Motion Computing
LS800 (2005), Axiotron ModBook (2007), etc. (Smith, 2010).
Only when the iPads of Apple Inc. came out in 2010; tablet was
a highlight within technology users. A tablet is a portable
computer which has touch screen display, battery, and Wi-Fi
cellular when it first came out. For the recent generation, a
trendy, up-to-date tablet like the new iPad Pro has 4G cellular,
back and front cameras, fingerprint passcode etc. Even though
tablets came out half a decade before 2010. IPads where truly
those which represent the definition of tablets.
Potential Benefit
Portable is the most important aspect of why people use tablets.
With the function of a computer and the size of a book, tablets
are easy to carry around. People can quickly use internet, read
books, and play games, etc. everywhere, any time they want
with just a few tabs on the screen. Tablets can afford all of the
basic functions of a computer such as calendar, email, internet,
6. camera, music, photo, etc. Schools across America have been
using tablets for their curriculum purposes. As stated in
Negroponte’s research paper, children can learn a great deal by
themselves and tablets can help kids to learn reading,
calculating, painting, etc. through lively applications (2012).
They enhance the ability of children to learn, problem solve,
and convey their ideas (Couse, 2010). From kindergartens to
high schools, tablets are proved to be helpful for students to
develop their learning skills. According to Leslie Couse in her
research paper, “children who use computers have been found to
show greater gains in intelligence, structural, knowledge,
problem solving, and language skills compared with those who
do not use technology in their learning” (Couse, 2010).
Ethical Issues
There are some infamous issues about tablets that still exist.
Glitches, low battery life, and most importantly, price. While
using a tablet, users get used to the fact that the apps would
occasionally crashing, slowly, or even restarting by itself. Users
would normally lose the data they have without anyway to
retrieve it back. Some of the “well rated” apps for education
have limited to no instructions for teachers and students.
Teachers and students sometime got into difficulties while using
tablets as “they encountered glitches associated with learning
this new technology” (Couse, 2010). When it is hard to
understand, the class would waste time to solve the
inconvenient problems when glitches on apps occur.
Low battery life is another significant issues where tablets only
last a couple of hours which cause difficulties among users.
Imagine a student who is about to present his project on his
iPad but the tablet runs out of battery, what would he do? Are
tablets considered as computers? Many have asked that question
because a computer should be multitasked. A tablet some time
cannot replace many functions of a computer. Tablet apps still
cannot give the complex, sophisticate qualities that exist on PCs
programs. For examples are Adobe Photoshop, MAGIX Music
Maker, iZOTOPE, and many others software are necessary to
7. many people’ life but are not compatible on table.
Price is another factor that prove tablets are not taking over the
jobs of computers yet. People are totally wrong with the fact
that buying a tablet would save more money due to their size.
For example, an iPad would cost $750 to $950 while a computer
only cost $400 to $500, and with more functions. According to
Rankothge in his research paper, poor families, and
communities, “will hardly afford the purchase and the
maintenance of these [tablets] devices” (2012).
Working with tablets would limit and reduce the traditional
learning methods such as group discussions, team works, etc.
Teachers also need to spend lots of effort to select suitable,
helpful apps for the lectures. However, according to Leslie
Couse’s research paper, until the end of the school day, “it was
almost impossible to determine accurately the depth of actual
learning that was occurring” (2010).
Security Concerns
With the advance of technology, online data storage is a place
people can keep their digital properties on the internet.
However, these properties might be easily hacked by individuals
with negative intentions. The most notorious example about
online data storage hacking was in 2014 when thousand private
pictures of Hollywood celebrities were hacked from their iCloud
accounts and published online.
“Parental control is considered important for children
technology usage” (Tahir, 2015). Cyberspace is a place with full
of risks and problems for kids. Cyberbullying, sexting,
blackmailing, identity thefts are the few examples of how
dangerous the internet is. Violent games are easy to download
which might develop aggressive, hostile behaviors to kids.
Tablets might not be a safe place for children since there are
many dark features on the internet such as adult contents,
hateful speech, banned videos, etc.
Social Problems
Tablets are addictive to children. Aside from useful apps, there
are others that might not be profitable, but also harmful as well.
8. They might cause both physically and mentally diseases to
children from myopic, drowsiness, to some serious ones such as
autism, etc. Tablets also cause great “impact on head and neck
posture than conventional desktop and laptop PCs” (Bertolucci,
2012). When tablets apply to the curriculum, teachers find it
hard to manage their classes since they cannot control what kids
do on the screens of their tablets. According to Tony Bradley,
all parents have to do is to watch over what children do on
tablets to “guard against inappropriate behavior and otherwise
protect kids” (Bradley, 2011). There are recent accidents caused
by overheated tablets which sometime catch them on fire. By
spending excessive amount of time on tablets, it would “adverse
effects on children’s health and social skills by isolating
children from other things (e.g. physical activity and social life)
around them which as well are important for their development
and growth” (Tahir, 2015).
Further Required Research
There are not a certain rules or laws about how parents should
provide tablets to their children. Manufacturers, parents and
“app developers could also benefit from working alongside
teachers to learn more about suitable content and features to
better support and extend student learning” (Fallon, 2014).
Because teachers and parents do not always know what’s out
there in the cyberspace. The later generation of tablets should
have programs that can prevent any negativities and
inconvenient for children development. “Therefore future
research should focus on other aspects also such as the role of
educational apps in schools, involving teachers and the role of
mobile technology in teaching” (Tahir, 2015).
Conclusion
Tablets are extremely useful for students’ development with
active, lively apps. They make the process of receiving
knowledge and information faster and more convenient. With
multiple useful applications, tablets can “highlight the
importance of the children’s active use of technology in making
decisions, technology resources in writing, drawing, and logical
9. thinking programs to solve problems and illustrate ideas (Couse,
2010). However, they have not proven to be physically
benefited for kids. Tablets are addictive to children and they
might cause multiple illnesses. Tables should be placed under
more strict controls and regulations before they are available for
children.

The research provide an inside perspective of parents,

in general. Parents are concern with the contents on the internet
since they cannot control what their kids do online all the time.
Policy makers and tablet developers should work together to
come up with a better solution for future tablets.
