This document outlines the research plan and methodology for a project studying depression and anxiety in children aged 10-14 in the American public education system. It includes details on stakeholder interviews and surveys with parents. The research will be conducted in two phases, starting with qualitative interviews of various stakeholders including school psychologists, teachers, and clinical psychologists. Interview guides are provided. A parent survey is also outlined to understand factors influencing school choice, perceptions of children's mental health, and effective approaches to education. The goal is to identify problems children face and potential solutions to improve mental health support.

Unstuck and On Target: Improving Executive Function, On-Task and Flexible Beh...Brookes Publishing
This presentation is for professionals who work with children with autism, ADHD, traumatic brain injury and other disorders linked to executive dysfunction. Executive Function (EF) problems are common in children and cause academic, social and adaptive problems. Lynn Cannon, M.Ed., Social Learning Specialist, and Lauren Kenworthy, Ph.D., Pediatric Neuropsychologist, will introduce you to tools you can use today that will help you identify when a child is having trouble with EF, so you can better distinguish a “can’t” from a “won’t” and therefore intervene more effectively.
The presenters will describe the Unstuck and On Target! intervention, which is a cognitive-behavioral school- and home-based intervention program targeting flexibility, goal-setting, and planning. Finally, they will report on the results of recent randomized, controlled trials of Unstuck that found improvements in classroom behaviors, such as following directions, transitioning easily, and engaging socially.
This recorded edWebinar will help you:
- Recognize EF weaknesses in children and distinguish among different EF skills
- Apply specific techniques to support improvement in EF at home, in treatment, or at school
- Learn specific scripts or vocabulary and when to use them to increase EF skills
- Summarize the research results examining the effectiveness of an EF intervention
Elementary teachers as well as special education professionals will benefit from watching this recorded session.

Supplies, Material, Equipment Needed:
Printed word documents and poster
Estimated Cost:
Free of charge
Community and Target Aggregate:
4th graders and classroom teacher.
Topic:
Primary Prevention/Health Promotion. Adolescent Health: Decreasing Risky Behaviors.
Epidemiological Rationale for Topic:
The age of the individual between the years 10 to 19 is named the age of adolescence, and this age period has fast physical and cognitive growth. Many social and public health problems have been noted to start. They are at peak during this developmental period, which includes road accidents that can also drive when drunk, suicide, homicide, smoking, drug abuse, sexually transmitted diseases, unplanned pregnancies, and homelessness. (Healthy People, 2016).
Nursing Diagnosis:
The individuals show their willingness to adopt a healthy lifestyle and behavior as they show an increased desire to adopt a healthy lifestyle and behavior (NANDA, n.d).
Readiness for Learning:
The participants are showing their emotional willingness to adapt healthy behavior as they show their keen interest in learning new topics about health that are beneficial for their mental and physical health and warmly welcoming new people in their class. On the basis of eloquence and the displayed skill, the group can adapt and learn new things, which will enhance their healthy behaviors.
Learning Theory to Be Utilized:
For making the learning methodology better, both social learning and critical theory are employed. Through employing critical theory, individuals will be better able to exchange their knowledge about different health-related topics which will motivate the individuals about adopting a healthy lifestyle and behavior, and the individuals will also have a positive attitude towards welcoming new ideas about how they could lead a healthy lifestyle by adopting a healthy behavior. On the other hand, social theory will encourage the individuals about how they could implement a healthy lifestyle in their everyday lives, which will reduce many risks and have a safe and healthy life.
Goal: Appropriate rationale and objective numbers are used of the Healthy People 20021 as the teaching method's goals. If the style of your teaching is not matching with the objectives of Healthy People 2020, then you should relate your teaching style with at least one or two goals if ...

JENNIFER’S POST: (FLYER ATTACHED)
State your degree program- Bachelor of Arts in Early Childhood Education
The position you interviewed for at the University of Arizona Global Campus Multigenerational Center- Assistant Teacher
Your clients- parents and caregivers of babies through children age 10 years old
Title of your workshop- Conscious Discipline (Dr. Becky Bailey)
The topic of your workshop- Conscious Discipline ways and methods for social-emotional growth
Why you chose this topic for your workshop- It is a very helpful program for children that attend the center. We use it here at the multi-generational enter and it would help the children to have the same methods echoed at home. It also lets the parents know what we do and why.
Your biggest concern about hosting this workshop- Some parents may find it too "new school" and not effective.
KELLIE’S POST: (FLYER ATTACHED)
Hello, my degree program I am currently in is Bachelors of Arts Early Childhood Education. I applied for the Assistant Teacher posting. My workshop is geared toward parents who have children attending preschool. The title of my workshop is The Art of Teaching Preschoolers. This particular workshop aims to assist parents with fun and creative ways to keep their preschooler engaged while learning. I choose this topic for my workshop because, during parent-teacher conferences, parents have stressed that their child shows no interest in learning when they are at home. My biggest concern about hosting this workshop is speaking in from of a crowd.
Regards,
Kellie

The stigma surrounding mental health means students may be unwilling to disclose difficulties they are experiencing and access help. International students are particularly vulnerable as they are away from their usual support networks. Their limited English can also restrict their communication of any issues.
Australian ELICOS (English language teaching for international students sector) providers are aware that mental health issues can seriously impact a student as they progress through their studies. In a survey by English Australia, over 50 per cent of ELICOS colleges believed the number of students with mental health issues has increased in the past two years which is placing an increased strain on the already limited resources of many ELICOS providers.
English Australia released 'The Guide to Best Practice in International Student Mental Health'. This guide provides tools and information that will help create an environment where students feel supported should they ever have any mental health concerns.
In this presentation, Sophie O'Keefe explores the guide and discusses the mental health issues that international and ELICOS students experience, and shares best practice for addressing these concerns.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.

Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.
