PADM 550 Research Paper Grading Rubric Page 1 of 2 speaks to whether government has the authority from God, the people and from the Constitution—to MAY act on the issue and the policy initiative. That is the first question we ask as policy makers. It could be that other spheres such as churches, non-profits, businesses, local communities, etc. have the authority to act on the policy issue. It may fall in the realm of just one of those spheres but it is likely that many spheres will be involved in some form of cooperation. speaks to whether it is feasible to address the issue. We consider the question of whether we have CAN sufficient physical, political, and financial resources to solve the problem or implement the policy initiative. Policy solutions do not occur in a vacuum; most issues come with much debate and sometimes even acrimony. A wise Christian policy maker understands the political implications behind any decision, including how the press will cover the issue and communicate intentions from the stakeholder and how the opposition will seek to undermine and discredit the agenda. Once we know we have the authority (May) and the resources (Can), we ask practical/pragmatic SHOULD questions of how best to solve the problem or implement the solution. To do so, we use the policy analysis process listed above. To some extent, the Can and Should portions of the analysis have to occur simultaneously. Finally, the May portion of the analysis also prescribes how one develops political strategies (Can). For instance, Biblically, we are called to act with integrity and humility. Further, how one defines the nature of the problem itself (Should) is the result of worldview assumptions—Biblical or otherwise. CAN: "Feasibility" • Finanicial Feasibility: Do we have the financial resources? • Phyiscal Feasilibity: do we have the resources? • Political Feasibility: do we have the political capital? SHOULD: Timing, Strategy • Policy Analysis Process: 1) Define and Analyze the Problem, 2) ; Construct Policy Alternatives; 3) Develop Evaluative Criteria; 4) Assess alternatives in light of the criteria; and 5) Choose the appropriate alternative(s) • Logisticis: what is the best way to implement a solution. • Timing: what is the best time to implement a solution MAY: • Does government have the authority to address this issue or implement the particular policy in question? • If so, where does it get its authority?

AGENDA_SETTING-ekek.pptx
The document discusses agenda setting in public policy. It defines agenda setting as the process by which problems and solutions gain or lose public and elite attention due to limited capacity to address all issues. Groups must compete to place their issues on the agenda or prepare for crises that make their issues more prominent. Central to understanding agenda setting is the concept of agendas, which are collections of problems, causes, solutions and other elements of public issues that come to the attention of the public and officials. Agendas exist at all levels of government and society.
Models of policy making and the concept of power in policy
The document discusses different models of policy making and concepts of power in policy making. It describes four models:
1) The rational model which aims to make the best decision by defining problems, establishing goals, generating alternatives, and selecting the best option.
2) The bounded rationality model which aims for a satisfactory decision by analyzing problems and establishing criteria for acceptable solutions.
3) The incremental model which involves successive limited comparisons and trial-and-error adjustments.
4) The mixed scanning model which combines bounded rationality and incrementalism, using broad goals to guide incremental decisions.
The document also discusses three dimensions of power: decision making power, agenda-setting power, and thought control power. It outlines three sources

1. The document discusses agenda setting in government and politics. It explains that for a policy issue to rise onto the agenda, three "streams" must align - the problem, a proposed solution, and political will.
2. Presidents are powerful agenda setters as they can focus media and congressional attention on issues. Congress also plays a role, with majority parties typically controlling the agenda.
3. Unexpected crises and policy failures can also thrust issues onto the agenda and override other priorities, as happened after 9/11 focused attention on terrorism.

Political Analysis and Strategies
Kathleen M. White 1
“The difficult can be done immediately, the impossible takes a little longer.”
Unknown author, Army Corps of Engineers motto, World War II
The knowledge and expertise of nurses regarding health and health care are critical to the political process and the development of health policy. However, the word politics often evokes negative emotions and many nurses may not feel inclined to get involved. Nonetheless, nurses have the skills to be active participants in the political arena for a number of reasons. First, nurses are skilled at assessment, and being engaged in the political process involves analysis of the relevant issues and their background and importance. Second, nurses understand people and, in order to understand an issue, it is critical to know who is affected andwho is involved in trying to solve the problem. Finally, nurses are relationship builders and the political process involves the development of partnerships andnetworks to solve problems. As skilled communicators, nurses have the ability to work with other professionals, patients, families, and their communities to solve health care problems that affect their patients and the health care system. Nurses have much to offer in the political process and need to develop skills in politicalanalysis and strategy to truly make a difference.
What is Political Analysis?
Political analysis is the process of examining an issue and understanding the key factors and people that might potentially influence a policy goal. It involves the analysis of government and organizations, both public and private; people and their behavior; and the social, political, historical, and economic factors surrounding the policy. It also includes the identification and development of strategies to attain or defeat a policy goal. Political analysis involves nine components.
Identification of the Issue
The first step in conducting a political analysis is to identify and describe the issue or problem. Identifying and framing the issue involves asking who, what, when, where, and how questions to gather sufficient information to lay the groundwork for developing an appropriate response to the issue. Start with what you know about the issue:
• What is the issue?
• Is it my issue and can I solve it?
• When did the issue first occur, is it a new or old problem?
• Is this the real issue, or merely a symptom of a larger one?
• Does it need an immediate solution, or can it wait?
• Is it likely to go away by itself?
• Can I risk ignoring it?
Beware of issue rhetoric (Bardach, 2012) that is either too narrowly defining an issue in a technical way, or defining the issue too broadly in a societal way. Decide what is missing from what you know about the issue and gather additional information:
• Why does the problem exist?
• Who is causing the problem?
• Who is affected by the issue?
• How significant is the issue?

• What additional information is needed?

CHAPTER 9Political Analysis and StrategiesKathleen M. White 1.docx
This document discusses political analysis and strategies for nurses to get involved in the political process. It defines political analysis as examining issues and understanding key factors and stakeholders that could influence policy goals. The summary identifies the main components of political analysis as:
1. Identifying and defining the issue.
2. Analyzing the social, historical, and economic context of the issue.
3. Assessing the political feasibility of addressing the issue by identifying supporting and opposing forces.
4. Identifying stakeholders affected by or able to influence the issue.
5. Considering the economic resources and values needed to address the issue successfully.

2. Compare patterns of policy change, specifically budgetary incrementalism and punctuated equilibrium.
3. Discuss the various actors involved in making public policy and the different types of policy.
4. Examine the role of bureaucracies in policymaking and the politics involved.
At the beginning of 2018, one of the biggest policy areas under consideration by Congress and the president was immigration policy and specifically how to deal with people who were brought illegally to the United States as children. These individuals are commonly known as “Dreamers,” after legislation that was proposed to address the issue—the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act, or DREAM Act. In 2014, then president Barack Obama signed an executive order giving legal protection to children who were brought to the United States illegally by their parents, often called Dreamers. With many calling such an order unconstitutional, President Donald Trump rescinded the order in September 2017, calling on Congress to come up with a permanent legislative solution. In January 2018, after months of negotiating with no solution, congressional Democrats refused to vote on a short-term continuing resolution to continue funding the government without a deal on Dreamers, thereby shutting it down for three days, in order to push the issue of DACA, or the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals. In this instance, Democrats utilized their leverage in the Senate to force Republicans to finalize a policy that could be passed and adopted by Congress. Portrayed in the media, the issue has become embroiled in repeated recriminations between Democrats and President Trump, strong language, and tough negotiations. However, all of this obscures different analytical tools that political scientists use to examine the politics of policy areas like immigration.
While DACA and Dreamers deals with a small slice of immigration policy, a basic conundrum is why the United States has not been able to engage in comprehensive immigration reform for over two decades despite several tries in the US Congress. This chapter introduces some of the many ways through which political scientists may attempt to answer such a question. Why has it gotten stuck in the policy formulation and adoption stages? What actors are involved, and what do they want out of immigration policy? How does immigration policy compare with other policy areas in terms of achievement or even difficulty? In attempting to answer these questions, political scientists can begin to understand the policy dynamics of immigration specifically and public policy in general.
Looking at the immigration debates of early 2018, most of the attention has been devoted to the roles of the president and Congress. However, other actors are equally involved in the setting and carrying out of policy—in particular, bureaucracies like the Department of Homeland Security, whi ...

Political philosophy
The document discusses several complex issues regarding morality, justice, charity, and the role of governments and religions. It makes the following key points:
1) There is a distinction between moral norms of justice and the more robust norms of charity that exceed justice.
2) Governments generally lack the means to meet even basic needs demanded by social justice, and are constrained to providing public order rather than co-opting individual rights and responsibilities.
3) While governments and religions may share desired ends, they differ in their means - governments use coercion while religions do not, and virtues advanced through coercion are not truly charitable.
ppt on understaing policy
- Public policy can be defined as "anything a government chooses to do or not to do" according to Thomas Dye. This definition emphasizes that governments are the primary actors in public policy and their decisions, whether to act or not act, constitute public policy.
- Governments are uniquely able to make authoritative decisions on behalf of citizens, backed by legislation. Public policy also involves a series of interrelated decisions made across government to address problems.
- Studying public policy allows us to scientifically understand the causes and consequences of policies, help solve practical problems, and make policy recommendations. It also allows us to learn what governments are doing in key areas, the causes of their decisions, and the impacts of their policies

Now that you have been assigned an issue, it is time to focus on the.docx
Now that you have been assigned an issue, it is time to focus on the research for the project. Policy briefs, or memos as they are sometimes called, differ from typical academic research papers in some respects. Their main purpose is to provide analysis and recommendations to a limited audience of policymakers and their staffs so that they can make an informed decision. These people do not have lots of time to do their own research and read long documents. Therefore, the brief must give the policymaker access to a lot of information in a clear, concise and well-organized fashion.
Part I
. Describe and Define the Issue/Problem
. In defining an issue, you take a position on the scope and seriousness of the problem and identify one or more causes. How do we know that the problem really exists? How does the problem manifest itself? What is the severity of the problem and who is affected most? Who and how many people are affected (supply metrics if available)? What are the various costs of the problem to individuals, communities and the nation? What are the cause or causes of the problem? What is the evidence to link the cause to the problem? If multiple causes exist, identify root and proximate causes. Focus your more in depth analysis on only one or two of the causes. Use numbers and comparisons to help readers understand the problem.
(Should not exceed 4 pages)
.
Part II
. Describe and Discuss the Merits of the Policy Alternatives
. What alternative approaches exist for reducing or eliminating the problem or mitigating its effects? Discuss at least two. (The alternatives may exist only on paper or they may have already been adopted by some jurisdictions. They may be your own alternative or those that you have borrowed from others.) What steps can the federal/state/local government take to address the problem? Assess the different approaches in terms of their promise for reducing the problem and their costs and benefits to society. Which do you think would be most effective and what would be the cost? (some of the benefits and costs may be difficult to quantify and monetize, but should still be noted).
(Should not exceed 4 pages)
.
Part III
. Assess Political Feasibility and Make a Recommendation
. Choose one or two alternatives and discuss its/their political feasibility. Would there be enough political support to gain approval of your preferred alternative? What might be done to gain the support of or circumvent potential opponents? (For this part of the project you may consider political feasibility at the national, state or local levels.)
(Should not exceed 3 pages)
Page limits do not include list of references at the end of document and any charts, tables or appendixes.
PAGE LIMIT SHOULD BE 8-10 PAGES ONLY.
Format and Sources.
Your drafts should be type-written,
double-spaced
with one-inch margins and 12-point font. Think about how to organize the brief to highlight the important points;.
Executingpublicpolicywithstrategicmanagementandbenchmarking 160517055710
This document discusses strategies for effectively executing public policy through strategic management and benchmarking. It defines key concepts in public policy including agenda setting, formulation, implementation, and evaluation. Strategic management in the public sector faces challenges in maintaining long-term consistency and accountability. Benchmarking systematically compares processes to best practices. The National Economic and Development Authority plays a role in Philippine development planning, coordination, and project evaluation to strategically achieve national goals.
Executing public policy with strategic management and benchmarking
This document discusses strategies for effectively executing public policy through strategic management and benchmarking. It defines key concepts like public policy, the policymaking process, and benchmarking. The main points are:
1) Strategic management in the public sector faces challenges of maintaining long-term policy consistency and accountability across changes.
2) Benchmarking systematically compares processes to competitors or best practices to improve performance.
3) The National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) plays a key role in Philippine development planning, policy coordination, and project evaluation to strategically achieve national goals.
Healthcare The Role of Politics in Public Health Policy.docx
This document discusses the role that politics plays in public health policymaking in the United States. It notes that health care issues and reform efforts have long been a focus of political debates. The passage uses the Affordable Care Act as an example of an issue that divided politicians and resulted in a government shutdown. It states that stakeholders from various groups lobby politicians to take specific actions on health issues. The role of politics in public health policymaking will continue due to the wide-ranging impacts that such policies have.
Public policy analysis
This document provides an overview of public policy analysis. It defines policy analysis as using evidence and reason to select the best policy among alternatives to address a problem. The summary discusses three key points:
1) Policy analysis integrates methods from multiple disciplines like political science, economics, and sociology to produce information relevant to policy problems, potential solutions, and outcomes.
2) There are three main forms of policy analysis: prospective focuses on predicting future impacts before implementation; retrospective examines past policies after implementation; and integrated combines both approaches.
3) A good policy analysis considers what is known empirically, what is valued, and what actions should be taken to resolve issues - requiring the use of descriptive, normative,
Assignment 1 LASA 2 Analyzing a Social PolicyIn this cours
Assignment 1: LASA 2: Analyzing a Social Policy
In this course, you have learned that social policies are formulated to solve social problems considered important by a mass of voters, media, and political actors. Social policy is but one solution to the problem—not necessarily the most rational, effective, or socially just. Social policies are human creations and, as such, can be changed. In this paper you will analyze a social policy as a tool for social justice.
Research one social welfare policy using your textbook, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet.
Analyze the policy and address the following:
The social problem addressed by the policy
What is/are the problem/s to be solved in the most fundamental terms?
What is the history of the problem/s in the United States?
What are the various theories about the causes of the problem/s? Based on this, what do you think is/are the most important causes/s of the problem/s?
The policy objectives, value premises, expectation, and target populations
Policy objectives—overt and covert objectives: What are the stated objectives of the policy? In your judgment, what are the covert objectives of the policy?
What are the values underlying the policy objectives? What values are revealed by the overt and covert objectives?
What did the policymakers expect would be the result of the policy?
Target segments of the population at whom policy is aimed: Discuss the direct target of the policy in terms of size and other demographic characteristics. Who are the indirect targets of the policy?
Effects of the policy
Intended effects: What effects did the lawmakers intend?

Chapt 1
This document provides an introduction to key concepts in politics and government, including definitions, principles, and collective action problems. It defines politics as conflicts over leadership, structure, and policies of government, and as deciding who gets what. Government is defined as having a monopoly on force and making and enforcing society's rules. The five principles of politics are introduced: the rationality principle states that political behavior has a purpose; the collective action principle notes that politics requires groups; the institution principle is that institutions solve collective action problems; the policy principle is that outcomes result from preferences and procedures; and the history principle is that history shapes politics. Collective action problems like the tragedy of the commons and free riding are explained.

Assignment 1: LASA 2: Analyzing a Social Policy
In this course, you have learned that social policies are formulated to solve social problems considered important by a mass of voters, media, and political actors. Social policy is but one solution to the problem—not necessarily the most rational, effective, or socially just. Social policies are human creations and, as such, can be changed. In this paper you will analyze a social policy as a tool for social justice.
Research one social welfare policy using your textbook, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet.
Analyze the policy and address the following:
The social problem addressed by the policy
What is/are the problem/s to be solved in the most fundamental terms?
What is the history of the problem/s in the United States?
What are the various theories about the causes of the problem/s? Based on this, what do you think is/are the most important causes/s of the problem/s?
The policy objectives, value premises, expectation, and target populations
Policy objectives—overt and covert objectives: What are the stated objectives of the policy? In your judgment, what are the covert objectives of the policy?
What are the values underlying the policy objectives? What values are revealed by the overt and covert objectives?
What did the policymakers expect would be the result of the policy?
Target segments of the population at whom policy is aimed: Discuss the direct target of the policy in terms of size and other demographic characteristics. Who are the indirect targets of the policy?
Effects of the policy
Intended effects: What effects did the lawmakers intend?
Unintended effects: What effects did the lawmakers not foresee?
Distinguish between short-range (less than five years) and long-range (over five years) effects of the policy.

Political philosophy
The document discusses several complex issues regarding morality, justice, charity, and the role of governments and religions. It makes the following key points:
1) There is a distinction between moral norms of justice and the more robust norms of charity that exceed justice.
2) Governments generally lack the means to meet even basic needs demanded by social justice, and are constrained to providing public order rather than co-opting individual rights and responsibilities.
3) While governments and religions may share desired ends, they differ in their means - governments use coercion while religions do not, and virtues advanced through coercion are not truly charitable.
ppt on understaing policy
- Public policy can be defined as "anything a government chooses to do or not to do" according to Thomas Dye. This definition emphasizes that governments are the primary actors in public policy and their decisions, whether to act or not act, constitute public policy.
- Governments are uniquely able to make authoritative decisions on behalf of citizens, backed by legislation. Public policy also involves a series of interrelated decisions made across government to address problems.
- Studying public policy allows us to scientifically understand the causes and consequences of policies, help solve practical problems, and make policy recommendations. It also allows us to learn what governments are doing in key areas, the causes of their decisions, and the impacts of their policies

Now that you have been assigned an issue, it is time to focus on the.docx
Now that you have been assigned an issue, it is time to focus on the research for the project. Policy briefs, or memos as they are sometimes called, differ from typical academic research papers in some respects. Their main purpose is to provide analysis and recommendations to a limited audience of policymakers and their staffs so that they can make an informed decision. These people do not have lots of time to do their own research and read long documents. Therefore, the brief must give the policymaker access to a lot of information in a clear, concise and well-organized fashion.
Part I
. Describe and Define the Issue/Problem
. In defining an issue, you take a position on the scope and seriousness of the problem and identify one or more causes. How do we know that the problem really exists? How does the problem manifest itself? What is the severity of the problem and who is affected most? Who and how many people are affected (supply metrics if available)? What are the various costs of the problem to individuals, communities and the nation? What are the cause or causes of the problem? What is the evidence to link the cause to the problem? If multiple causes exist, identify root and proximate causes. Focus your more in depth analysis on only one or two of the causes. Use numbers and comparisons to help readers understand the problem.
(Should not exceed 4 pages)
.
Part II
. Describe and Discuss the Merits of the Policy Alternatives
. What alternative approaches exist for reducing or eliminating the problem or mitigating its effects? Discuss at least two. (The alternatives may exist only on paper or they may have already been adopted by some jurisdictions. They may be your own alternative or those that you have borrowed from others.) What steps can the federal/state/local government take to address the problem? Assess the different approaches in terms of their promise for reducing the problem and their costs and benefits to society. Which do you think would be most effective and what would be the cost? (some of the benefits and costs may be difficult to quantify and monetize, but should still be noted).
(Should not exceed 4 pages)
.
Part III
. Assess Political Feasibility and Make a Recommendation
. Choose one or two alternatives and discuss its/their political feasibility. Would there be enough political support to gain approval of your preferred alternative? What might be done to gain the support of or circumvent potential opponents? (For this part of the project you may consider political feasibility at the national, state or local levels.)
(Should not exceed 3 pages)
Page limits do not include list of references at the end of document and any charts, tables or appendixes.
PAGE LIMIT SHOULD BE 8-10 PAGES ONLY.
Format and Sources.
Your drafts should be type-written,
double-spaced
with one-inch margins and 12-point font. Think about how to organize the brief to highlight the important points;.

Executing public policy with strategic management and benchmarking
This document discusses strategies for effectively executing public policy through strategic management and benchmarking. It defines key concepts like public policy, the policymaking process, and benchmarking. The main points are:
1) Strategic management in the public sector faces challenges of maintaining long-term policy consistency and accountability across changes.
2) Benchmarking systematically compares processes to competitors or best practices to improve performance.

Healthcare The Role of Politics in Public Health Policy.docx
This document discusses the role that politics plays in public health policymaking in the United States. It notes that health care issues and reform efforts have long been a focus of political debates. The passage uses the Affordable Care Act as an example of an issue that divided politicians and resulted in a government shutdown. It states that stakeholders from various groups lobby politicians to take specific actions on health issues. The role of politics in public health policymaking will continue due to the wide-ranging impacts that such policies have.
Public policy analysis
This document provides an overview of public policy analysis. It defines policy analysis as using evidence and reason to select the best policy among alternatives to address a problem. The summary discusses three key points:
1) Policy analysis integrates methods from multiple disciplines like political science, economics, and sociology to produce information relevant to policy problems, potential solutions, and outcomes.
2) There are three main forms of policy analysis: prospective focuses on predicting future impacts before implementation; retrospective examines past policies after implementation; and integrated combines both approaches.
3) A good policy analysis considers what is known empirically, what is valued, and what actions should be taken to resolve issues - requiring the use of descriptive, normative,

. Your answers should provide evidence of engagement with and understanding of the key concepts about identity, alienation, rationality, and power.
Your answers should be expressed in academic English.
You will not be able to use direct quotations from the readings or lecture material.
Explain concepts in your own words; if you cannot clearly explain an idea/concept in your own words, you probably haven’t yet fully grasped its meaning.
To what extent can identities be said to be "integral" to a person (i.e. is a particular identity an essential feature of who you are)?
When thinking sociologically about identity, subject positions are associated with roles learned through socialisation. Explain how individuals learn those roles through socialisation?
According to Benedict Andersen the nation is a cultural artefact and an imagined community. What did he mean by this and what are key means through which the nation is imagined?
Marx described “alienation” as an outcome of capitalist economic relations. Sociologists have since expanded the concept to think about how it might relate to other social processes (i.e. “social alienation”). In what other ways might we be said to experience alienation in society?
Gramsci understood hegemony as a form of rule in which subordinate groups consent to the exercise of power or domination. According to Gramsci how does hegemony operate in capitalist societies?
Weber saw rationalisation as an “iron cage” that increasingly dominated all social life. Discuss how rationalisation shapes higher education.
According to Marxists how do relationships of power operate in capitalist societies?
According to Foucault how does modern disciplinary power differ from traditional sovereign power? (e.g. as exercised by monarchs, kings and emperors)

For the sake of argument (this essay in particular), lets prete.docx
For the sake of argument (this essay in particular), let's pretend that
Sophia (Links to an external site.)
has discovered a fundamental truth about our concept of the soul: that it is, as she defined it,
the mind's essence
.For this essay, I'd like you to first take a deep dive into
defining
and
elaborating
on what that might mean
(to Sophia, then, as a consequence, to humanity) Then, I'd like you to take into consideration the technologies that have had the greatest impact on how the soul-as-mind's-essence idea expresses itself in our era. Can we have a "virtual afterlife"? A "digital soul"? Can we beat death? If we create nonbiological entities into which we put our identities, and, thus, that entity "thinks" and "feels" like it is "you," well, to what degree can we say that it is "you" and that it is a contemporary version of how Sophia defines the soul? Furthermore, do you think that is what Sophia means--a digital simulacrum of the self? I am hoping you consider how our civilization's ideas are profoundly influenced by our technological world, and that these philosophical questions only exist in the first place because we have invented tools that inevitably create problems for and probe into the most sacred spaces of human identity.
This essay should be 4.5 pages minimum and, as usual, MLA format.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
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
9
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.

- 1. PADM 550 Research Paper Grading Rubric Page 1 of 2 speaks to whether government has the authority from God, the people and from the Constitution—to MAY act on the issue and the policy initiative. That is the first question we ask as policy makers. It could be that other spheres such as churches, non-profits, businesses, local communities, etc. have the authority to act on the policy issue. It may fall in the realm of just one of those spheres but it is likely that many spheres will be involved in some form of cooperation. speaks to whether it is feasible to address the issue. We consider the question of whether we have CAN sufficient physical, political, and financial resources to solve the problem or implement the policy initiative. Policy solutions do not occur in a vacuum; most issues come with much debate and sometimes even acrimony. A wise Christian policy maker understands the political implications behind any decision, including how the press will cover the issue and communicate intentions from the stakeholder and how the opposition will seek to undermine and discredit the agenda. Once we know we have the authority (May) and the resources

To some extent, the Can and Should portions of the analysis have to occur simultaneously. Finally, the May portion of the analysis also prescribes how one develops political strategies (Can). For instance, Biblically, we are called to act with integrity and humility. Further, how one defines the nature of the problem itself (Should) is the result of worldview assumptions—Biblical or otherwise. CAN: "Feasibility" • Finanicial Feasibility: Do we have the financial resources? • Phyiscal Feasilibity: do we have the resources? • Political Feasibility: do we have the political capital?
