Program evaluations are completed for many different reasons—to demonstrate effectiveness for funding, to evaluate strengths and weaknesses for improvement, to determine allocation of limited resources, or simply to document program accomplishments or activities. The first step in program evaluation is to identify the purpose for the evaluation, followed closely by identification of stakeholders that will be affected by it. Stakeholders include everyone who is affected by and/or will be consumers of the evaluation results. Engaging stakeholders in an evaluation process requires the design and implementation of communication and research strategies that are tailored to the needs of each group. The purpose of your communication with each may be to attract or sustain funding, or to inform, coordinate, or gather data. Strategies to meet these communication goals may include any method from staff meetings to community fairs to complex survey research efforts. Submit a 3- to 4-page paper that addresses the following: · Identify the institution you selected from the Interactive Community ( New Harbor Memorial hospital ) and write a brief (approximately 200 words) evaluation proposal for a need it may have. The goal is to be concise and yet specific. · Create profiles of four stakeholders that would be involved in or affected by an evaluation at this organization. Explain the level of contact or information that each stakeholder would need before, during, and after an evaluation project as well as each stakeholder’s familiarity with evaluation and its vocabulary. · Explain the optimal communication for each stakeholder (e.g., oral, written, face-to-face) and the considerations that would be best practices in any plan (e.g., reading level, linguistic diversity, physical impairments to communication). · Explain any methodology issues that would be pertinent to stakeholder communication in this setting. For example, if you profile stakeholders who are clients at a hospital clinic, you might identify data collection through anonymous questionnaires rather than a Delphi technique that requires repeated contact. · Finally, explain and address any ethical considerations for your communication plan with stakeholders. Please see the organization and it concerns attached. Add subtitles if necessary ...

Stakeholder involvement in business management has taken a dramatic turn in recent years in that its influence on managing business activities and project cannot be overlooked. Any individual or groups who have an interest in the organization’s activities is considered to be a stakeholder. A stakeholder is typically concerned with an organization delivering intended results and meeting its financial objectives. In general, stakeholders are classified as internal, external or connected depending on position relative to the organization. It is extremely important to identify and balance the demands of these stakeholder groups and to act responsibly to all of them in order to maintain and achieve an effective relationship with the business’s success and community satisfaction.
Deliverables:
You are required to produce a 4,000-word report detailing:
· Identify and critically evaluate the functions and importance of the various stakeholder groups.
· Critically analyse the strategies needed to predict individual stakeholder’s behaviour and develop an effective community engagement plan.
· Critically evaluate appropriate communication strategies that will maximise the purpose of both external and internal stakeholder.
· Critically examine the relevant social network platforms that could be engaged with to provide leverage to a successful project implementation.

Assignment 1At the heart of democratic public administration and.docx
Assignment 1
At the heart of democratic public administration and leadership is the goal to serve the public interest while seeking to achieve the underlying policy goals of equity, efficiency, security, and liberty. How would you integrate an understanding of the public interest into your organization? Use at least two specific examples. Make sure you define the term “public interest” in your answer. With this in mind, consider the following questions.
Sometimes critics will assail “democratic public administration” with the following remarks:
“You just can’t let employees vote on everything!”
“If you let employees have too much say, they’ll just cut back their work hours or productivity!”
“I can’t let employees have this much say because they just don’t know enough of the rationale behind our decisions!”
What would be your response to these types of critiques? Or do you agree with them?
By the due date assigned, post your response to this Discussion Area.

· Write an executive summary, 4-5 pages in length, of existing out.docx
· Write an executive summary, 4-5 pages in length, of existing outcome measures related to a performance issue uncovered in your gap analysis that you intend to address.
Introduction
Note: Each assessment in this course builds on the work you completed in the previous assessment. Therefore, you must complete the assessments in this course in the order in which they are presented.
As a nurse leader, you must be able to access, identify, and describe outcome measures as they relate to safety and quality problems in your organization.
This assessment provides an opportunity to examine existing outcome measures, assess their strategic value, and present your findings to executive leaders in a manner that will help you gain their support.
Quality and safety are everyone's responsibility as a team of interprofessional care delivery partners. Together we develop policies that support quality and safe care delivery. As part of the interprofessional team, nurses are leaders in care and thus are responsible and accountable for leading and providing safe quality care.
Health care delivery is structured around evidenced-based information. Quality is defined by exploring proven, evidenced-based information. After reviewing and defining evidenced-based information, the interprofessional team applies this knowledge to assess the organization's or the practice setting's ability to provide evidenced-based care delivery. When a gap in care is identified, it is important to propose an evidenced-based change and to execute a plan for improved care.
Your summary of relevant outcome measures is based on your findings from the quality and safety gap analysis you completed in the previous assessment.
Preparation
Your analysis of the gap between current and desired performance was the first step toward improving outcomes. You now have the information you need to move forward with proposed changes. Your next step is to focus on existing outcome measures and their relationship to the systemic problem you are addressing. For this assessment, you have been asked to draft a summary of existing outcome measures for your organization's executive team to raise awareness of the problem and the strategic value of existing measures.
Note: As you revise your writing, check out the resources listed on the Writing Center's

As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. You are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community. Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration and do not need to be completed or submitted as part of your assessment.

When evaluating a program, there are numerous ways to collect da.docx
When evaluating a program, there are numerous ways to collect data about its participation, impact, and success. A particularly powerful method that may be appropriate for program evaluation is qualitative field research. Qualitative field research allows the researcher to collect descriptive data about experiences directly from individuals in face-to-face settings. When evaluating such complex issues as human attitudes, behaviors, and opinions, qualitative research can provide in-depth information and rich insights that numerical data simply cannot provide.
This type of research is called qualitative field research because it is conducted in the environments in which experiences, such as program interventions, take place. Researchers collect detailed notes or transcriptions from observations, face-to-face interviewing, or focus group conversations.
In this Application, you consider how you might apply qualitative field research methods to needs assessments in human and social services.
Think back to the topic you selected for the Week 4 Discussion. Consider how you might evaluate a program for this topic using qualitative field research methods. Use the following questions to guide your thinking:
What specific field techniques would you use to reach this population?
Would you identify yourself as a researcher?
What logistical issues would you need to consider?
The Assignment (2–3 pages)
Explain how you would evaluate a program for your selected topic using qualitative field research methods. Be specific and provide examples. Assume the proposed actions you suggested last week have taken place.

COH 499 Capstone
The capstone paper will serve as a valuable tool for your self-assessment of your competency level across the eight domains of the core competencies for Public Health Professionals. The Core Competencies for Public Health Professionals1 (i.e., Core Competencies) are a consensus set of foundational skills for the broad practice of public health, as defined by the 10 Essential Public Health Services. The Core Competencies are organized into eight skill areas or domains that cut across public health disciplines. The purpose of this assessment is to help you explore your level of competence within these eight domains. Please note that the signature assignment instructions include content directly from the competencies document.
By assessing your level of knowledge or skill for each competency statement described, you will be able to prioritize your learning time to focus on the most critical areas and concentrate where the need for training and learning may be greatest.
The competency assessment is divided into the following eight domains:
• Analytical/Assessment Skills
• Policy Development/Program Planning Skills
• Communication Skills
• Cultural Competency Skills
• Community Dimensions of Practice Skills
• Public Health Sciences Skills
• Financial Planning and Management Skills
• Leadership and Systems Thinking Skills
Tier 1 – Entry Level: Tier 1 competencies apply to public health professionals who carry out the day-to-day tasks of public health organizations and are not in management positions. Responsibilities of these professionals may include data collection and analysis, fieldwork, program planning, outreach, communications, customer service, and program support.
Instructions: Complete steps 1-3 for each domain.
1) Self-Perceived Proficiency: Read each competency statement listed within a domain. In each domain, and for each competency statement, think about the level at which you can perform the skill. Then rate your level of proficiency on each domain by selecting or highlighting the number on the domain from “None” (1) to “Proficient” (4) that best describes your self-reported level of expertise for that statement. Note: The competency statements listed in each domain should be interpreted as broadly as possible to apply to your position and principal employment setting. In the example below, you would select number “4” for “Proficient” if you think you are excelling at this domain or select “1” for “None” if you feel you need a great deal of improvement.
2) Evidence of Proficiency: At the end of each domain, please provide a detailed explanation of the required BSPH courses and/or approved public health experiences that helped you achieve the above-mentioned competency. Provide at least two examples of evidence and describe in detail how the assignments and/or projects helped you reach your perceived prof ...

Deliver to the interprofessional team a presentation (20 minutes; 12.docx
Deliver to the interprofessional team a presentation (20 minutes; 12-15 slides) that analyzes an existing workplace quality improvement initiative related to a specific disease, condition, or public health issue of interest. The presentation's purpose is to inform and get buy-in from the interprofessional team.
Too often, discussions about quality health care, care costs, and outcome measures take place in isolation—various groups talking among themselves about results and enhancements. Nurses are critical to the delivery of high-quality, efficient health care. As a result, they must develop their skills in reviewing and evaluating performance reports. They also need to be able to communicate outcome measures related to quality initiatives effectively. Patient safety and positive institutional health care outcomes mandate collaboration among nursing staff members to ensure the integration of their perspectives in all quality care initiatives.
In this assessment, you will have the opportunity to analyze a quality improvement initiative in your workplace. You will then present your analysis to a group of nurses and other health care professionals. The purpose of your presentation is to inform and enlist support for the initiative from your audience.
Demonstration of Proficiency
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies through the following assessment scoring guide criteria:
Competency 2: Plan quality improvement initiatives in response to routine data surveillance.

Deliver to the interprofessional team a presentation (20 minutes; 12-15 slides) that analyzes an existing workplace quality improvement initiative related to a specific disease, condition, or public health issue of interest. The presentation's purpose is to inform and get buy-in from the interprofessional team.
Too often, discussions about quality health care, care costs, and outcome measures take place in isolation—various groups talking among themselves about results and enhancements. Nurses are critical to the delivery of high-quality, efficient health care. As a result, they must develop their skills in reviewing and evaluating performance reports. They also need to be able to communicate outcome measures related to quality initiatives effectively. Patient safety and positive institutional health care outcomes mandate collaboration among nursing staff members to ensure the integration of their perspectives in all quality care initiatives.
In this assessment, you will have the opportunity to analyze a quality improvement initiative in your workplace. You will then present your analysis to a group of nurses and other health care professionals. The purpose of your presentation is to inform and enlist support for the initiative from your audience.

Sharon B. Buchbinder and Dale Buchbinder
Dr. O’Connor was known for his hot temper and drinking. Although he claimed never to come to work under the influence, nurses, physicians, and other coworkers had their doubts, and several expressed their alarm to their supervisors. The emergency room needed coverage, and it was hard to find physicians who would work the graveyard shift, so little was done to address these concerns. One night, Dr. O’Connor walked across a clearly marked wet floor that the custodian had just mopped. When the angry janitor protested loudly and pointed to the bright yellow sign and the offending footprints, Dr. O’Connor took a swing at the other man and a fistfight ensued.
DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
1.
What should the hospital do to deal with the good doctor? Who should handle this?
2.
What role, if any, did the janitor play in this incident? What could he have done differently?
3.
Where should Dr. O’Connor be referred—anger management, Alcoholics Anonymous, psychiatric evaluation? Provide a rationale for your response.
4.
How can this incident be turned into a “teachable moment” for the staff, physicians, and others?
5.
How could this have been prevented?

For this Assignment, choose a discreet environmental policy issue that you are interested in, such as climate change, forest management, or air-quality regulations. Write a 3−5 page paper defining the roles and expectations that scientists and two other experts (such as elected officials, non-governmental stakeholders, or economists) play in this area, illustrating issues of power, the potential (realized or not) of science in the policy-making process, and the barriers and incentives to collaborative outcomes among experts.
Be sure to:
Identify the influences on the experts (such as values, interests, positions, and external forces).
Discuss how these influences impact the experts’ contributions to environmental collaborative processes and ultimately the outcomes of those processes.
Consider the degrees and types of interactions among the science and policy experts in framing and implementing environmental policies.
Predict how those elements affect long term implications of a policy.

For this assignment, you are going to use your skills of research an.docx
For this assignment, you are going to use your skills of research and imagination. Time travel has been invented, and you have the opportunity to visit any significant art historical site from the Renaissance - Baroque period. Imagine this trip and answer the following questions:
Where would you choose to go and why? (This could be a location, like Saint Peter's Basilica, or a city, like Florence, or a specific artist's studio).
Imagine what it would be like to tour this location. Include at least three images that would illustrate your journey. (Ex: front of the Sistine Chapel, the ceiling, and the altar).
Who would be your tour guide? The artist? The patron? Someone else? (Ex: If you go to Florence, maybe one of the Medicis would be your guide).
How would your tour guide introduce him/herself? (This is where some biographical research should come in handy).
Discuss each of your images: describe the subject matter (if applicable), techniques for its creation, and its significance within art history. If one of your images is architecture, what significant elements would your tour guide point out?
End your tour by explaining to your tour guide the impact that art from the Renaissance/Baroque period had on history.
This is not your typical research paper, but you will be expected to adhere to the following guidelines:
Standard formatting: 1" margins, 12-point Times New Roman font, 3-5 pages.
In-text citations will only be required for direct quotes, but a works-cited/bibliography page is required using MLA formatting.
Include images at the end of your document. (If they are embedded in your text, your paper better be closer to 5 pages long!)
You may use first-person narrative, as you are imagining this experience from your perspective..

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

- 1. Program evaluations are completed for many different reasons— to demonstrate effectiveness for funding, to evaluate strengths and weaknesses for improvement, to determine allocation of limited resources, or simply to document program accomplishments or activities. The first step in program evaluation is to identify the purpose for the evaluation, followed closely by identification of stakeholders that will be affected by it. Stakeholders include everyone who is affected by and/or will be consumers of the evaluation results.
