Assignment 2: (RA 2): Cultural Influences in Development In this assignment, you will apply your knowledge of cultural influences on development to create psychosocial workshops for a specific population. Tasks: Scenario : As a human services administrator at a local agency, one of your duties is to write descriptions of the agency's community workshops to publish in the community's resource guide delivered free of charge to all residents. These are the titles of the workshops: Single Moms : A workshop for working mothers to help them balance work and home Community Living : A workshop for those transitioning from incarceration to society Caregiver Parents : A workshop for those taking care of aging parents, while also raising a young family Parenting Teens : A workshop to enable parents to help their teenage children transition to young adulthood Your community largely comprises blue-collar workers, many of whom are working on either visas or green cards; thus, there are pockets of immigrant communities. Some of the workers are those who were reintegrated into society after prolonged incarceration (more than three years). The median age of the area is thirty-five years, and multigenerational households are commonplace. The public school system is underresourced, and truancy is a big problem. Many students do not complete high school, and standardized test scores are well below what is federally mandated for funding. Directions : For each of the four workshops, write a 100- to 200-word description on the basis of the following: Utilize what you have learned throughout the course to describe specific services that each workshop will include. Tailor each description to the community and the target audience for the workshop. Apply cultural and multicultural sensitivity within and across all descriptions. Remember, a single mother may also read the description for community living. Craft your descriptions to be readable and sensitive to all. Account for individual differences and environmental contexts that will influence developmental changes. Account for the role of culture in shaping attitudes, values, and behaviors. For each description, write a two-page rationale. Use at least three references from scholarly sources to demonstrate how you determined which services to offer for each workshop. Submission Details: By Wednesday, April 13, 2016 , prepare a 6- to 8-page analysis paper. Your response should rely upon at least three sources from professional literature. This may include the Argosy University online library resources, relevant textbooks, peer-reviewed journal articles, and websites created by professional organizations, agencies, or institutions (.edu, .org, or .gov). Write in a clear, concise, and organized manner; demonstrate ethical scholarship in accurate representation and attribution of sources (i.e., APA format); and use accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation. Save your paper in a Microsoft Word document with the name M4.

Assignment 1: Journal Entry: Intersection and Religious Discrimination When pieces of cloth are sewn together, you might have trouble discerning the individual pieces of cloth that make the final garment, but by looking carefully, you can find the seams. You may have experienced similar difficulty in the first week of this course when asked to explore the individual aspects of culture that combine to create your unique self-identity. Forms of oppression can come together often in almost imperceptible ways to form the complex environment in which you and your clients live and interact. As a social worker, you must examine carefully the intersections between religious discrimination, sexism, classism, and racism so you can respond accordingly. To prepare: Consider this week's resources that describe how religion intersects with other forms of oppression. Submit your response to those resources and analyze what you think is the role of religion in reinforcing sexism, classism, and racism. As a social worker, how can you address these issues on a micro and macro level? Assignment 2: Race, Empowerment, and Cultural Competence The ideas, attitudes, values, and beliefs with which people are surrounded as they grow up inform their perceptions about themselves and their place in the world. Family and religious systems are usually the first place that people get messages about themselves and others. Those messages can be positive and illustrate how important it is to embrace difference, or they can be full of hate and intolerance. For this Assignment, consider how your own ideas about race and ethnicity have been influenced by those around you. Submit a 2-page paper that answers the following question: How does your family and religious systems lead to your ideas about your own racial ethnic group as well as the racial and ethnic group of others? Be sure to address the concepts of ethnocentric practice, empowerment and cultural competence. Please use the Learning Resources to support your answer.

Assignment 1: Assignment 2: Project Paper – Comparative Essay Due Week 8 and worth 200 points This “Assignment 2” writing assignment is a comparative essay focused on topics encountered in our HUM 111 class. The project will be based on research but will reflect your views and interpretation of the topic. This project is designed to help you stretch your mind and your abilities as an organized, innovative, and critical thinker. If approached properly, it should also be fun! Choose one (1) of the topics from the list of topic choices below. Read the topic carefully. Write a three to four (3-4) page paper (750-1,000 words) that follows instructions and covers each part of the topic. (The title page and References list do not get included in this word count). Note: Your instructor may require you to submit your topic choice for approval before the end of Week 5. For the topic you choose: Establish a clear thesis about your topic as part of the introductory paragraph (often the thesis is the last thing one determines after doing the basic research and outline; however it will be placed in the first paragraph of your paper). This is a comparative essay. Comparison approached properly will require some critical thinking on your part. Use a point-by-point approach for the essay. That means, if comparing subject A with subject B, don't do the first half of the essay on subject A and then the second half on subject B--that will seem like two (2) separate essays and comparisons will tend to get lost. Instead, you should be mentioning both subjects in most of your paragraphs as you compare them throughout the essay. Comparisons will identify similarities as well as contrasts. Do not try to do everything on your two (2) subjects. You should end up narrowing your focus to a few insights and issues about the subjects being compared. And, from those fairly specific points of comparison, you will develop a thesis and glean some lessons. Follow closely the instructions below for your specific topic. Include a concluding paragraph at the end. This paragraph will, in some way, refer back to the thesis established in your first paragraph, since now you have demonstrated and supported it. It may be here that you also include your observations relating your study to the modern workplace or society (see your topic). Try to finish with flair! Use at least three (3) good quality academic sources, with one (1) source being the class text. Note: Wikipedia and other similar Websites do not qualify as academic resources. You are highly encouraged to use the Resource Center tab at the top of your Blackboard page. Topic Choices – Choose just one (1) of the topics below: Qualities of the Hero: Comparing Gilgamesh and Odysseus . Write an essay comparing these two (2) heroic figures from ancient epics of different cultures, especially focusing your analysis on the sources about their encounters with monsters: Gilgamesh encounters the monster guarding the forest, Hum.

Assignment 1: the sociological viewpoint toward social problems (Due Week 3) Overview One of the most crucial components to this course concerns addressing social problems in society from a sociological viewpoint as opposed to a strictly policy-oriented, psychological, or criminal justice viewpoint. Although many different viewpoints in social science are valid and have a lot of importance, it is equally important for us to understand how sociology looks at the nature of social problems in society today. This paper will enable us to explore why certain social problems seem to be regarded as more significant than others. Our job will be in defining the sociological viewpoint, and choosing one social problem that we think is of high importance. We will build upon the topic we choose in this paper for our second and third writing assignments. Instructions Construct a 2-4 page paper that fully explores each of the following areas: 1) Citing our textbook material, explain how the sociological approach toward social problems differs from other approaches. Why are certain problems considered significant and others are not? 2) Next, choose one social problem that exists in society that you think is particularly serious, and explain it in sociological terms. This social problem should be measurable in some statistical way. (Is it increasing, and if so, how? Among which groups of people, and for how long, etc.?) 3) What might be one important way in which the social problem is currently being addressed in society? 4) Please define and identify at least four concepts from our text relevant to your chosen social problem. 5) Analyze the way in which these concepts help us better understand the nature of the social problem you are discussing. Don’t forget to include proper APA-style citation and reference. The paper should be typed, double-spaced, 1” margins, arial or times new roman 11 pt font, and saved as .doc, .rtf or .pdf in the format: lastname_SOCI212_HW1.doc DISCLAIMER: Originality of attachments will be verified by Turnitin.

Assignment 1: White-Collar Crime Victor and John work as software installers and program developers in the computer division of the Social Security Administration (SSA). SSA purchased software which was customarily installed by both Victor and John. SSA was licensed to make copies of the software for use by their employees during their employment, but not for resale to the public or for profit. Victor and John are also partners in a small computer business. Victor started using some SSA software in his business, without the knowledge or consent of SSA. He told John that he would use it only for testing and not for profit. However, the "testing" of the software generated profit for their business. John did not want to continue using the software without SSA consent. Victor believed the SSA would not grant permission and convinced John not to disclose their secret use of the software. Based on the facts of the case and research, respond to the following questions: What white-collar crimes, if any, did Victor and John commit? Explain each individual's crime separately. What ethical leadership and management violation has Victor committed? Explain. What legal protection is available to John if he decides to inform the SSA about the software use? Explain. .

Assignment 1: What Change Occurs Organizationally? In response to citizens' pressure to gain accessibility and increase involvement within the community, a police agency is moving from a traditional and professional model of policing to community-based policing. The leadership decides to train all the personnel in this new philosophy and problem-solving tools. The leadership determines that as part of the implementation of the new philosophy, the departments will start the following programs: A downtown foot patrol program. A community liaison officer (CLO) in each police precinct. Job duties of the CLO will include attending community meetings and listening to community concerns in order to determine an appropriate response. A neighborhood response team (NRT) consisting of eight officers and one sergeant. The NRT will be responsible for responding to specific issues in the neighborhood. However, the NRT will not be required to respond to normal police radio–dispatched traffic, freeing the team members to work directly on neighborhood complaints. Submission Details: In a minimum of 250 words, post to the Discussion Area your answers to the following: Why is it critical that organizational changes occur when an agency adopts a new philosophy such as community policing? What are the consequences for an agency if only a small group of its officers or employees are responsible for adopting the community policing philosophy? .

Assignment 1: Strategic Human Resources Management In organizations, the role of human resources management (HRM) is increasingly becoming more strategic rather than administrative. Therefore, it is important to understand how to adapt or change longstanding human resources management (HRM) responsibilities to those that support the business strategy and enhance the core capabilities of the organization (which, in turn, should positively impact the organization's profitability). The following are three of the most common responsibilities of human resources management (HRM) and brief descriptions of how they have traditionally been conducted. Note that they are all generic in nature as they are not tailored to the organization's business strategy. Recruiting and Selection : Positions with simple job descriptions are advertised on large job boards, résumés are reviewed, candidates are interviewed by a manager, and the best candidate is offered the position. Training and Development : The training and development department develops and delivers a set of core training programs (e.g., effective communication, conflict resolution, and leading without authority) similar to those of many other companies. Performance Management : Human resources management (HRM) creates and administers a standard performance appraisal form annually, covering the following categories: communication, attendance, attitude, quality of work, and initiative. For each of these, describe how and explain why it should be modified for the following organization and scenario to be strategically focused. Horizon Enterprises is a company of fifteen hundred people, based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. It designs and manufactures small pieces of (countertop) cutting-edge medical laboratory equipment. Its core competency is innovation, which it also considers to be its competitive advantage. Its business strategy is to work closely with hospitals and laboratories to develop products that will increase the speed and reduce the cost of medical tests. It competes against much larger technology companies, like General Electric, that focus on mammoth, multi-million-dollar devices (e.g., magnetic resonance imaging machines and positron emission tomography–computed tomography [PET/CT] scanners), although it has the capability to design smaller equipment. One of Horizon Enterprises' selling points is its ability to bring the products to market more quickly than its larger competitors, whose attention is on the higher-priced and higher-margin equipment and whose processes are more lumbering. Submission Details: By Saturday, July 9, 2016 , post your responses to this Discussion Area . Through Wednesday, July 13, 2016 , respond to at least two of your classmates' posts. While responding, identify the similarities and differences between what you have constructed and what your classmates have. Consider the following in your response: Critique and add to suggestions offered by your classmates. El.

Assignment 1: Team Project Part 1: Project Charter and Team Plan for Collaboration This week you begin working with a team to manage a fictional information technology project being implemented at the Casino Medical Center. Work with your team members to create and submit a Project Charter and Team Plan for Collaboration based on the Team Project Scenario and the Team Project Overview document. Review the details about the Project Charter and Team Plan for Collaboration below: Team Project Scenario Casino Medical Center (CMC) in Las Vegas, a 600-bed hospital, has expanded significantly over the past 3 years. In an effort to respond to the increased workload of all hospital staff, the chief information officer (CIO) and the vice president of patient care services (VP-PCS) at CMC determined the need to analyze hospital processes throughout the organization. The CMC organizational analysis revealed a number of areas that needed improvement. At the same time, broad changes in regulatory requirements required immediate adjustments in processes. The organizational analysis was conducted across all departments and found the following organization-wide issues. · Quality reviews discovered a hospital-wide medication administration error rate of 20% with some tasks identified as redundanttasks. · Complying with new federal reporting requirements has increased the time needed to complete the medication administrationprocess. CMC responded to the problem by purchasing an enterprise-wide health care information system from Topmost, one of the leading enterprise-software vendors in the country. The functionality of the system directly addresses the medication administration issues found in the organizational analysis. Several modules of an electronic health record system (EHRS) have already been implemented, as shown in the table below. As employees of Topmost, you and your team are charged with implementing this medication administration system for CMC, the final phase of the EHRS project. This medication administration system includes an electronic medication administration record (eMAR), Barcode Medication Administration (BCMA), and physical administration of medication. Note: For the remainder of this scenario, this whole process will be referred to as the Medication Administration System (MAS).
