Intervention example description:
The first intervention that I will discuss addressing Ebola outbreaks was conducted by Doctors without Borders in 1995 (Kerstein & Matthys, 1999). The intervention took place in Kikwit, Congo, which has approximately 200,000 inhabitants and two hospitals (Kikwit General Hospital and Kikwit II Hospital). The intervention actually occurred within the hospital setting, in an isolation ward. It was compared to a separate hospital in order to determine the intervention significance. The intervention included building an isolation ward specifically for Ebola patients with the use of trained CDC physicians to educate the local staff on and Ebola, cleaning, body burial, disinfection and antiseptic techniques, adequate water supply, a waste-disposal system, and usage of proper PPE (Kerstein & Matthys, 1999). Overall, the intervention was successful, though there were various strengths and weaknesses associated with it. The strengths were that it was a novel approach focusing on Ebola outbreaks and quarantine situations and ult ...

Case Study in Primary care:
One hypothetical case study involves Jim a 54, year old patient who has recently diagnose with hypertension and his Creatinine and BUN laboratory results are elevated, if left untreated, will result in kidney failure. The patient refuses to take the medication because he said it will affect his sex life The NP must work with the patient to respect the fact that he doesn’t want the medication (autonomy), and needs to find a solution that would prevent him from going into kidney failure and other complications, which is in his best interest (beneficence). Although medications are the best choice, forcing the patient to accept the medication will result in probably patient leaving the care (non-maleficence). Finally, the NP needs to consider the impact that the patient’s choices might have on others if he starts to go into preventable kidney failure, he’ll need dialysis, which affects other people who need the same treatment (justice). So before making the final decision the NP must consider all four principles of health care ethics, which will help the NP make the choice that will have the best possible benefits for both the patient and society.
Questions?
1. What are the skills necessary for the provider to identify, address, and assess this clinical ethical issue?
2. What are the provider’s obligations when a patient discloses does he not intent to follow the treatment?
3. What are the ethical considerations in evaluating a patient’s failure to adhere to a prescribed therapy?
4. Will you terminate care for this patient? What are the implications?

How To Critique A Journal Article
Sponsored by The Center for Teaching and Learning at UIS
Last Edited 4/9/2009 Page 1 of 2
So your assignment is to critique a journal article. This handout will give you a few guidelines to
follow as you go. But wait, what kind of a journal article is it: an empirical/research article, or a
review of literature? Some of the guidelines offered here will apply to critiques of all kinds of
articles, but each type of article may provoke questions that are especially pertinent to that type
and no other. Read on.
First of all, for any type of journal article your critique should include some basic information:
1. Name(s) of the author(s)
2. Title of article
3. Title of journal, volume number, date, month and page numbers
4. Statement of the problem or issue discussed
5. The author’s purpose, approach or methods, hypothesis, and major conclusions.
The bulk of your critique, however, should consist of your qualified opinion of the article.
Read the article you are to critique once to get an overview. Then read it again, critically. At this
point you may want to make some notes to yourself on your copy (not the library’s copy,
please).
The following are some questions you may want to address in your critique no matter what type
of article you are critiquing. (Use your discretion. These points don’t have to be discussed in this
order, and some may not be pertinent to your particular article.)
1. Is the title of the article appropriate and clear?
2. Is the abstract specific, representative of the article, and in the correct form?
3. Is the purpose of the article made clear in the introduction?
4. Do you find errors of fact and interpretation? (This is a good one! You won’t believe how
often authors misinterpret or misrepresent the work of others. You can check on this by looking
up for yourself the references the author cites.)
5. Is all of the discussion relevant?
6. Has the author cited the pertinent, and only the pertinent, literature? If the author has included
inconsequential references, or references that are not pertinent, suggest deleting them.
7. Have any ideas been overemphasized or underemphasized? Suggest specific revisions.
8. Should some sections of the manuscript be expanded, condensed or omitted?
9. Are the author’s statements clear? Challenge ambiguous statements. Suggest by examples how
clarity can be achieved, but do not merely substitute your style for the author’s.
10. What underlying assumptions does the author have?
11. Has the author been objective in his or her discussion of the topic?
In addition, here are some questions that are more specific to empirical/research articles. (Again,
use your discretion.)
1. Is the objective of the experiment or of the observations important for the field?
2. Are the experimental methods described adequately?
3. Are the study design and methods appropriate for the purposes of the study?
4. Have the procedures ...

Final Project
Once you graduate and obtain your first job out of your Master of Social Work program, you may be asked to identify the gaps in services at your new agency. You may be asked to create a new group or help to identify a new evidence-based intervention that can be introduced to the clients. Understanding how to research the current literature, and then choose and evaluate an intervention, is an important component of being a successful social worker. For this course, you have researched new and interesting interventions that are currently being used with children, adolescents, adults, and the elderly. Further, you have explored the importance of connecting theory to practice.
For this Assignment, use will practice steps in Evidence-Based Practice. 1) You will think of a practice problem. 2) You then conduct a literature review on available research. 3) You will evaluate the evidence to determine which intervention to use. 4) You will consider client values and your clinical expertise. 5) You will think about what you hope the client gains from this intervention (i.e., decreased depression, increased quality of life, decreased PTSD symptoms) and consider how you might measure this change.
To prepare:
· Use the population of the Elderly/Ageing.
· Choose a presenting problem (depression, family conflict, homelessness, etc.) related to the population of interest.
· Conduct a literature review focused on the presenting problem within the population of interest.
Submit a 9 page scholarly paper supported with a minimum of sixpeer-reviewed articles as references. In the paper, you should:
· Briefly describe the population and presenting problem you are focusing on for this assignment.
· Provide a review of the articles you reviewed from this project and explain what you learned from conducting this research.
· Briefly describe at least 2 evidence-based interventions currently used for your chosen population when addressing this particular problem. Provide supporting references when explaining the evidence behind the interventions.
· Explain which of these interventions you might choose to use and why.
· Consider client values and your clinical expertise and how those might affect your decision of which intervention to use.
· Describe how you might apply the specific skills and techniques of the chosen intervention.
· Briefly explain how you could measure the outcomes of this intervention.
· Explain any cultural considerations that you need to take into account when working with this population or the particular presenting problem.
· Discuss how the Code of Ethics applies when working with this particular presenting problem and population.
· Explain how you would apply a trauma-informed lens when working with this population.

Mechanisms of Mind-Body Therapies Coursework 2022-23Service Repo.docxpauline234567
Mechanisms of Mind-Body Therapies Coursework 2022-23
Service Report Coursework
Weighting: 60%
Word count: 2400 words (+/- 10%)
Deadline:
Monday 9th January 2023, 1pm
Assignment Rationale
The Service Report is designed to replicate the type of task psychology graduates are often asked to perform in a range of employment settings. For example, Assistant Psychologists and Trainee Clinical and Counselling Psychologists frequently undertake such reports to help psychological services make evidence-based decisions about treatments options. Psychology graduates are valued members of such teams, due to their skills in critical evaluation of the literature and ability to apply findings to a particular setting or population.
The coursework aims to test your breadth of knowledge of two interventions (LO2), critical evaluation and literature review skills (LO3), knowledge of clinical applications and limitations of therapies (LO4), and ability to reflect on the cultural context of mind-body therapies (LO5).
Instructions
You are working in an NHS psychological therapies service in an ethnically diverse area of London, however the service has noticed that patients from marginalised ethnic groups are under-represented in the patient numbers. Consultation with local community groups and existing patients suggests that a choice of a mind-body therapy, alongside the standard talking therapy currently offered would be welcomed. You have been asked by your Service Manager to investigate
two suitable mind-body therapies and to write a report on these so that the service can determine which therapy to offer to its patients.
You have been asked to 1) describe what the interventions are (as no one in the service has much knowledge of such therapies) 2) explain the ways that the therapies claim to increase wellbeing; 3) review the literature on the two therapies, and to report on their effectiveness; 4) try out at least one of the therapies yourself and 5) provide a final recommendation about which intervention you think should be offered to the patients.
Guidance
To approach this task, you should first choose:
1)
One of the following services to imagine that you are working in:
i. A service for young people with eating disorders
ii. A service for adults who have chronic pain
iii. A service for adults experiencing drug and/or alcohol addiction
iv. A service for older adults with common mental health problems such as depression and anxiety
2) The two mind-body therapies that you will write the report on.
3) The one therapy to try out and reflect upon.
Please note: You are unable to use the intervention you presented in the Debate, as one of your interventions for the Service Report. However, you may use interventions that other Debate group members used.
Within your report you should include the following sections, with headings:
·

The title here must match the title on your title page. Your introduction follows the title of your paper (note that the title is not bolded). Note also that there is no heading that says Introduction. The paragraph or two that follows the title on the first page of your text is assumed to be your introduction. You should start your introduction with a powerful statement or two to stimulate interest. You should identify that the purpose of your paper is to explain the pathophysiological processes of a selected health condition, predict clinical manifestations and complications of the health condition, and correlate lifestyle, environmental, and other influences that will occur in your patient due to a change in their level of wellness. (See the “Purpose” and “Course Outcomes: in your guidelines.) Remember that formal papers are in third person, so no you, I, me, or we until you make a recommendation about your article. In this introduction, you should introduce the disease process that you are writing about in a paragraph of at least 200 words. You should include a description of the disease and the epidemiology of the disease. Epidemiology includes the overall incidence (who gets it) and distribution (where is it seen most often) of your chosen disease topic. An APA formatted citation for where you have found your information should be included. (e.g., “The literature review by Hubert and VanMeter (2018) . . . .” or “Hubert and VanMeter (2018) described posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in nurses, specifically psychiatric nurses, as occurring most frequently.) [Do not quote more than one or two short passages (just several words) if any. Summarize—do not paraphrase or change words in the original (that’s called paraphrasing plagiarism)]. [1-2 well developed paragraphs here should be your minimum here.]
Etiology
This section should include common causes of the disease or condition. Next, discuss the risk factors for the disease or condition. Next, discuss how age, gender, or race might affect your disease or condition. Next discuss how the environment might contribute to your disease or condition. Finally discuss how lifestyle choices might contribute to or reduce your disease or condition. Be sure to properly cite your sources. Summarize information only. (Do not copy it word for word to avoid plagiarism.) {You might say something like this: Hubert and VanMeter (2013) described pain as a subjective symptom in patients. Phantom pain was specifically identified as “pain that is perceived by the person as occurring in the lost limb and usually does not respond to usual pain therapies.” (Hubert and VanMeter 2013, p. 57).

Spend up to the next 2 hours to complete the following task, to the best of your ability. This exam is worth 100 points. There is no specific word count requirement.
Topic: Vitamin C - https://vitamincfoundation.org/squares/
Your submission should be in the form of written paragraphs, but you will not be evaluated on the quality of writing beyond the minimum necessary to understand what you are communicating. Your submission does not need to be as structured as the analysis assignments submitted during the semester. You should answer parts 1-5 of the task individually, each in paragraph form. Number each answer to correspond to parts 1-5, and then references at the end.
1. In one paragraph, summarize the product or service and describe what it is supposed to do.
2. In one paragraph, identify and clearly state at least one scientific claim being made about the product or service.
3. Identify and clearly describe at least two sources that are purported to support the claim. Each source should be described in a single paragraph (i.e., two paragraphs total). You must provide references for these sources (as well as any other that you use to complete the other tasks) at the end of your document, in the same format that you have been using throughout the semester.
4. Briefly evaluate the quality of the sources and whether or not the sources appear to support the claim. This section may be anywhere from one to several paragraphs long, as needed.
◦ State whether or not you believe the claim is justified, correct, and/or relevant based on your overall evaluation. This evaluation must take into account the sources you identified and evaluated (in steps 3 and 4).
◦ You may utilize sources that do not support the claim in your overall evaluation (i.e., sources in addition to the two from step 3).
◦ Your evaluation should explicitly consider at least two logical fallacies. These may be fallacies that you believe are present, or ones that could have been an issue but that you determined were not.
5. Based on your review of the product or service, summarize in one paragraph when use of the product or service might be beneficial: who might benefit and under what circumstances.
You are free to draw on prior knowledge, your textbook, and electronic resources, but should indicate when you have done so by using the same referencing methods utilized during the semester.
You may not use other humans. Communication in any form (verbal, physical, or electronic) with another human being during this exam will be considered academic misconduct and result in an automatic grade of zero. The sole exception is if you have an urgent issue that you communicate to an instructor. Your instructors will not provide assistance with this exam or the resources you utilize to complete it.

century.
Although teen pregnancy rates have dropped there are still concerns and healthcare problems that are associated with teen pregnancy.
Often times they are afraid to discuss sex with their parents and deny will deny being sexually active at all.
There are problems that manifest with
adolescent pregnancy for the mother and often times the infants as well.
The high school drop out rate among pregnant high school students is approximated at about
70 percent and is cited as the number reason teens drop out prior to graduation
.
There is also an estimated $7 billion revenue cost associated with teen pregnancy in the United States alone.

The risk of young people engaging in early sexual intercourse is largely due to the lack of sexual education, peer pressure and social influences.
Chlamydial infection, gonorrhea, HIV/AIDS, primary and secondary syphilis, and hepatitis B virus infection are amid the highest reported STDs with chlamydia noted as the most dominate which is likely due to the fact that there is more vigorous testing.
Some of the other noted STDs are genital herpes, trichomoniasis, Chancroid, and HPV.
Often times and without any signs or symptoms present more than one pathogen is involved with sexually transmitted diseases. Typically the only environments in which there remain viable pathogens is the bodily fluids from the genitourinary tract requiring there to be intimate contact for them to be acquired.
Although it affects men and women chlamydia is predominately seen in young women and is the most common nationally known sexually transmitted disease in the U.S.
Bodily fluids from the genitourinary tract are typically the environments in which there remain viable pathogens, so intimate contact is generally required to obtain STDs.
Chlamydia infections are asymptomatic in most women and can be transmitted during childbirth with the
potential of a newborn developing pneumonia as a complication.
If it is not treated
chlamydia can spread to the uterus and fallopian tube creating further health problems and permanent damage to the reproductive system.
Teaching abstinence is the most affective way to prevent pregnancy and STDs but sexuality and curiosity of sex begins at a young age and exploration into sexuality is a natural part of personal development.
I feel it is our
[KD3]
role and responsibility as healthcare providers to provide adolescents and teens with the information and risk factors involved with having sex.
They need to be educated on contraceptives, pregnancy and S.

In order to achieve this objective, the following supporting topics will be covered:
Strategic alliances;
Cooperative strategies; and
Competitive risks.
Please go to the next slide.
Strategic AlliancesCooperative strategyStrategic allianceCombination of resources and capabilitiesExchange and sharing of resourcesFirms leverage existing resourcesCornerstone of many firms’ competitive strategy
Recognized as a viable engine of firm growth, cooperative strategy is a strategy in which firms work together to achieve a shared objective. Thus, cooperating with other firms is another strategy firms use to create value for a customer that exceeds the cost of providing that value and to establish a favorable position relative to competition.
A strategic alliance is a cooperative strategy in which firms combine some of their resources and capabilities to create a competitive advantage. Thus, strategic alliances involve firms with some degree of exchange and sharing of resources and capabilities to co-develop, sell, and service goods or services. Strategic alliances allow firms to leverage their existing resources and capabilities while working with partners to develop additional resources and capabilities as the foundation for new competitive advantages. To be certain, the reality today is that strategic alliances have become a cornerstone of many firms’ competitive strategy.
Please go to the next slide.
Strategic Alliances, continuedJoint ventureEquity strategic allianceNonequity strategic alliance
The three major types of strategic alliances include joint venture, equity strategic alliance, and nonequity strategic alliance.
A joint venture is a strategic alliance in which two or more firms create a legally independent company to share some of their resources and capabilities to develop a competitive advantage. Joint ventures, which are often formed to improve firms’ abilities to compete in uncertain competitive environments, are effective in establishing long-term relationships and in transferring tacit knowledge. Because it can’t be codified, tacit, or implied, knowledge is learned through experiences such as those taking place when people from partner firms work together in a join.

How To Critique A Journal Article Sponsored by The Center .docxpooleavelina
How To Critique A Journal Article
Sponsored by The Center for Teaching and Learning at UIS
Last Edited 4/9/2009 Page 1 of 2
So your assignment is to critique a journal article. This handout will give you a few guidelines to
follow as you go. But wait, what kind of a journal article is it: an empirical/research article, or a
review of literature? Some of the guidelines offered here will apply to critiques of all kinds of
articles, but each type of article may provoke questions that are especially pertinent to that type
and no other. Read on.
First of all, for any type of journal article your critique should include some basic information:
1. Name(s) of the author(s)
2. Title of article
3. Title of journal, volume number, date, month and page numbers
4. Statement of the problem or issue discussed
5. The author’s purpose, approach or methods, hypothesis, and major conclusions.
The bulk of your critique, however, should consist of your qualified opinion of the article.
Read the article you are to critique once to get an overview. Then read it again, critically. At this
point you may want to make some notes to yourself on your copy (not the library’s copy,
please).
The following are some questions you may want to address in your critique no matter what type
of article you are critiquing. (Use your discretion. These points don’t have to be discussed in this
order, and some may not be pertinent to your particular article.)
1. Is the title of the article appropriate and clear?
2. Is the abstract specific, representative of the article, and in the correct form?
3. Is the purpose of the article made clear in the introduction?
4. Do you find errors of fact and interpretation? (This is a good one! You won’t believe how
often authors misinterpret or misrepresent the work of others. You can check on this by looking
up for yourself the references the author cites.)
5. Is all of the discussion relevant?
6. Has the author cited the pertinent, and only the pertinent, literature? If the author has included
inconsequential references, or references that are not pertinent, suggest deleting them.
7. Have any ideas been overemphasized or underemphasized? Suggest specific revisions.
8. Should some sections of the manuscript be expanded, condensed or omitted?
9. Are the author’s statements clear? Challenge ambiguous statements. Suggest by examples how
clarity can be achieved, but do not merely substitute your style for the author’s.
10. What underlying assumptions does the author have?
11. Has the author been objective in his or her discussion of the topic?
In addition, here are some questions that are more specific to empirical/research articles. (Again,
use your discretion.)
1. Is the objective of the experiment or of the observations important for the field?
2. Are the experimental methods described adequately?
3. Are the study design and methods appropriate for the purposes of the study?
4. Have the procedures ...

Final Project
Once you graduate and obtain your first job out of your Master of Social Work program, you may be asked to identify the gaps in services at your new agency. You may be asked to create a new group or help to identify a new evidence-based intervention that can be introduced to the clients. Understanding how to research the current literature, and then choose and evaluate an intervention, is an important component of being a successful social worker. For this course, you have researched new and interesting interventions that are currently being used with children, adolescents, adults, and the elderly. Further, you have explored the importance of connecting theory to practice.
For this Assignment, use will practice steps in Evidence-Based Practice. 1) You will think of a practice problem. 2) You then conduct a literature review on available research. 3) You will evaluate the evidence to determine which intervention to use. 4) You will consider client values and your clinical expertise. 5) You will think about what you hope the client gains from this intervention (i.e., decreased depression, increased quality of life, decreased PTSD symptoms) and consider how you might measure this change.
To prepare:
· Use the population of the Elderly/Ageing.
· Choose a presenting problem (depression, family conflict, homelessness, etc.) related to the population of interest.
· Conduct a literature review focused on the presenting problem within the population of interest.
Submit a 9 page scholarly paper supported with a minimum of sixpeer-reviewed articles as references. In the paper, you should:
· Briefly describe the population and presenting problem you are focusing on for this assignment.
· Provide a review of the articles you reviewed from this project and explain what you learned from conducting this research.
· Briefly describe at least 2 evidence-based interventions currently used for your chosen population when addressing this particular problem. Provide supporting references when explaining the evidence behind the interventions.
· Explain which of these interventions you might choose to use and why.
· Consider client values and your clinical expertise and how those might affect your decision of which intervention to use.
· Describe how you might apply the specific skills and techniques of the chosen intervention.
· Briefly explain how you could measure the outcomes of this intervention.
· Explain any cultural considerations that you need to take into account when working with this population or the particular presenting problem.
· Discuss how the Code of Ethics applies when working with this particular presenting problem and population.
· Explain how you would apply a trauma-informed lens when working with this population.
Support your Final Project with specific references to the resources. Be sure to provide full APA citations for your references.

Service Report Coursework
Weighting: 60%
Word count: 2400 words (+/- 10%)
Deadline:
Monday 9th January 2023, 1pm
Assignment Rationale
The Service Report is designed to replicate the type of task psychology graduates are often asked to perform in a range of employment settings. For example, Assistant Psychologists and Trainee Clinical and Counselling Psychologists frequently undertake such reports to help psychological services make evidence-based decisions about treatments options. Psychology graduates are valued members of such teams, due to their skills in critical evaluation of the literature and ability to apply findings to a particular setting or population.
The coursework aims to test your breadth of knowledge of two interventions (LO2), critical evaluation and literature review skills (LO3), knowledge of clinical applications and limitations of therapies (LO4), and ability to reflect on the cultural context of mind-body therapies (LO5).
Instructions
You are working in an NHS psychological therapies service in an ethnically diverse area of London, however the service has noticed that patients from marginalised ethnic groups are under-represented in the patient numbers. Consultation with local community groups and existing patients suggests that a choice of a mind-body therapy, alongside the standard talking therapy currently offered would be welcomed. You have been asked by your Service Manager to investigate
two suitable mind-body therapies and to write a report on these so that the service can determine which therapy to offer to its patients.
You have been asked to 1) describe what the interventions are (as no one in the service has much knowledge of such therapies) 2) explain the ways that the therapies claim to increase wellbeing; 3) review the literature on the two therapies, and to report on their effectiveness; 4) try out at least one of the therapies yourself and 5) provide a final recommendation about which intervention you think should be offered to the patients.
Guidance
To approach this task, you should first choose:
1)
One of the following services to imagine that you are working in:
i. A service for young people with eating disorders
ii. A service for adults who have chronic pain
iii. A service for adults experiencing drug and/or alcohol addiction
iv. A service for older adults with common mental health problems such as depression and anxiety
2) The two mind-body therapies that you will write the report on.
3) The one therapy to try out and reflect upon.
Please note: You are unable to use the intervention you presented in the Debate, as one of your interventions for the Service Report. However, you may use interventions that other Debate group members used.
Within your report you should include the following sections, with headings:

The title here must match the title on your title page. Your introduction follows the title of your paper (note that the title is not bolded). Note also that there is no heading that says Introduction. The paragraph or two that follows the title on the first page of your text is assumed to be your introduction. You should start your introduction with a powerful statement or two to stimulate interest. You should identify that the purpose of your paper is to explain the pathophysiological processes of a selected health condition, predict clinical manifestations and complications of the health condition, and correlate lifestyle, environmental, and other influences that will occur in your patient due to a change in their level of wellness. (See the “Purpose” and “Course Outcomes: in your guidelines.) Remember that formal papers are in third person, so no you, I, me, or we until you make a recommendation about your article. In this introduction, you should introduce the disease process that you are writing about in a paragraph of at least 200 words. You should include a description of the disease and the epidemiology of the disease. Epidemiology includes the overall incidence (who gets it) and distribution (where is it seen most often) of your chosen disease topic. An APA formatted citation for where you have found your information should be included. (e.g., “The literature review by Hubert and VanMeter (2018) . . . .” or “Hubert and VanMeter (2018) described posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in nurses, specifically psychiatric nurses, as occurring most frequently.) [Do not quote more than one or two short passages (just several words) if any. Summarize—do not paraphrase or change words in the original (that’s called paraphrasing plagiarism)]. [1-2 well developed paragraphs here should be your minimum here.]
Etiology
This section should include common causes of the disease or condition. Next, discuss the risk factors for the disease or condition. Next, discuss how age, gender, or race might affect your disease or condition. Next discuss how the environment might contribute to your disease or condition. Finally discuss how lifestyle choices might contribute to or reduce your disease or condition. Be sure to properly cite your sources. Summarize information only.

Final Exam
Spend up to the next 2 hours to complete the following task, to the best of your ability. This exam is worth 100 points. There is no specific word count requirement.
Topic: Vitamin C - https://vitamincfoundation.org/squares/
Your submission should be in the form of written paragraphs, but you will not be evaluated on the quality of writing beyond the minimum necessary to understand what you are communicating. Your submission does not need to be as structured as the analysis assignments submitted during the semester. You should answer parts 1-5 of the task individually, each in paragraph form. Number each answer to correspond to parts 1-5, and then references at the end.
1. In one paragraph, summarize the product or service and describe what it is supposed to do.
2. In one paragraph, identify and clearly state at least one scientific claim being made about the product or service.
3. Identify and clearly describe at least two sources that are purported to support the claim. Each source should be described in a single paragraph (i.e., two paragraphs total). You must provide references for these sources (as well as any other that you use to complete the other tasks) at the end of your document, in the same format that you have been using throughout the semester.
4. Briefly evaluate the quality of the sources and whether or not the sources appear to support the claim. This section may be anywhere from one to several paragraphs long, as needed.
◦ State whether or not you believe the claim is justified, correct, and/or relevant based on your overall evaluation. This evaluation must take into account the sources you identified and evaluated (in steps 3 and 4).
◦ You may utilize sources that do not support the claim in your overall evaluation (i.e., sources in addition to the two from step 3).
◦ Your evaluation should explicitly consider at least two logical fallacies. These may be fallacies that you believe are present, or ones that could have been an issue but that you determined were not.
5. Based on your review of the product or service, summarize in one paragraph when use of the product or service might be beneficial: who might benefit and under what circumstances.
You are free to draw on prior knowledge, your textbook, and electronic resources, but should indicate when you have done so by using the same referencing methods utilized during the semester.
You may not use other humans. Communication in any form (verbal, physical, or electronic) with another human being during this exam will be considered academic misconduct and result in an automatic grade of zero. The sole exception is if you have an urgent issue that you communicate to an instructor. Your instructors will not provide assistance with this exam or the resources you utilize to complete it.

Why does teen pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases remain hig.docxvelmakostizy
Why does teen pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases remain high in the U.S.
What can healthcare providers do that decrease the rate of teen pregnancy and STD’s in the US?
* These questions should be researched and incorporated in the body of the paper and answered.
This is my introduction already done.
Adolescent Sex
Teen pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases continue to be an important healthcare issue in the 20
th
century.
Although teen pregnancy rates have dropped there are still concerns and healthcare problems that are associated with teen pregnancy.
Often times they are afraid to discuss sex with their parents and deny will deny being sexually active at all.
There are problems that manifest with
adolescent pregnancy for the mother and often times the infants as well.
The high school drop out rate among pregnant high school students is approximated at about
70 percent and is cited as the number reason teens drop out prior to graduation
.
There is also an estimated $7 billion revenue cost associated with teen pregnancy in the United States alone.
[KD2]
The risk of young people engaging in early sexual intercourse is largely due to the lack of sexual education, peer pressure and social influences.
Chlamydial infection, gonorrhea, HIV/AIDS, primary and secondary syphilis, and hepatitis B virus infection are amid the highest reported STDs with chlamydia noted as the most dominate which is likely due to the fact that there is more vigorous testing.
Some of the other noted STDs are genital herpes, trichomoniasis, Chancroid, and HPV.
Often times and without any signs or symptoms present more than one pathogen is involved with sexually transmitted diseases. Typically the only environments in which there remain viable pathogens is the bodily fluids from the genitourinary tract requiring there to be intimate contact for them to be acquired.
Although it affects men and women chlamydia is predominately seen in young women and is the most common nationally known sexually transmitted disease in the U.S.
Bodily fluids from the genitourinary tract are typically the environments in which there remain viable pathogens, so intimate contact is generally required to obtain STDs.
Chlamydia infections are asymptomatic in most women and can be transmitted during childbirth with the
potential of a newborn developing pneumonia as a complication.
If it is not treated
chlamydia can spread to the uterus and fallopian tube creating further health problems and permanent damage to the reproductive system.
Teaching abstinence is the most affective way to prevent pregnancy and STDs but sexuality and curiosity of sex begins at a young age and exploration into sexuality is a natural part of personal development.
I feel it is our
[KD3]
role and responsibility as healthcare providers to provide adolescents and teens with the information and risk factors involved with having sex.
They need to be educated on contraceptives, pregnancy and S.

In order to achieve this objective, the following supporting topics will be covered:
Strategic alliances;
Cooperative strategies; and
Competitive risks.
Please go to the next slide.
Strategic AlliancesCooperative strategyStrategic allianceCombination of resources and capabilitiesExchange and sharing of resourcesFirms leverage existing resourcesCornerstone of many firms’ competitive strategy
Recognized as a viable engine of firm growth, cooperative strategy is a strategy in which firms work together to achieve a shared objective. Thus, cooperating with other firms is another strategy firms use to create value for a customer that exceeds the cost of providing that value and to establish a favorable position relative to competition.
A strategic alliance is a cooperative strategy in which firms combine some of their resources and capabilities to create a competitive advantage. Thus, strategic alliances involve firms with some degree of exchange and sharing of resources and capabilities to co-develop, sell, and service goods or services. Strategic alliances allow firms to leverage their existing resources and capabilities while working with partners to develop additional resources and capabilities as the foundation for new competitive advantages. To be certain, the reality today is that strategic alliances have become a cornerstone of many firms’ competitive strategy.
Please go to the next slide.
Strategic Alliances, continuedJoint ventureEquity strategic allianceNonequity strategic alliance
The three major types of strategic alliances include joint venture, equity strategic alliance, and nonequity strategic alliance.
A joint venture is a strategic alliance in which two or more firms create a legally independent company to share some of their resources and capabilities to develop a competitive advantage. Joint ventures, which are often formed to improve firms’ abilities to compete in uncertain competitive environments, are effective in establishing long-term relationships and in transferring tacit knowledge. Because it can’t be codified, tacit, or implied, knowledge is learned through experiences such as those taking place when people from partner firms work together in a join.

Serial KillersFor this assignment you will review a serial kille.docxWilheminaRossi174
Serial Killers
For this assignment you will review a serial killer's case in depth. The killer you choose to review will also be the subject of your Week 5 final assignment, so keep your research material handy.
First, choose
one
of the following serial killers:
David Berkowitz ("Son of Sam") taunted police over a year and shot 15 people (6 died) in New York City. The movie "Summer of Sam" was about this time.
Gary Ridgway (the "Green River Killer") holds the American record for most victims. He confessed to killing 48 over a 16-year period but is suspected of having killed many more!
Wayne B. Williams is believed to be the killer of 24 children and young men in Atlanta, though there is still some doubt.
John Allen Muhammad and Lee Boyd Malvo were the "DC snipers" who shot 13 people (ten died) over three weeks in the Washington DC area in 2002.
Ted Bundy: Confessed to almost 30 murders (there may have been more). He was known for being smart and good-looking, and acted as his own lawyer.
Jeffrey Dahmer: His case captured worldwide attention after his capture, mostly due to his habit of keeping parts of his victims long after their deaths, as well as cannibalism and necrophilia.
Kristen Gilbert: An example of a female serial killer, she was a nurse who killed hospital patients in her care.
For this assignment, create a report in Microsoft Word that covers the following points:
Summarize the case: time period, location, number of victims, etc.
Describe the killer's background, methods, and area of operation.
How did the killer select his or her victims? Was there anything that the victims did to provoke the killer?
By analyzing all of the above information, you should now be able to propose a
three-part typology
and explain your analysis. Your typology should describe the killer's
motivation, location, and organized or disorganized factors. For instance, John Wayne Gacy might be described as a
Power/Control, local, organized killer.

SESSION 1Michael Delarosa, Department ManagerWhat sugg.docxWilheminaRossi174
SESSION 1
Michael Delarosa, Department Manager
What suggestions do you have for improvement in regards to training new supervisors?
Make sure there are opportunities for hands on problem solving. Too much of our training is theory
and supervisors need to be focused on the real-world problems that come up.
What challenges do supervisors in our plants encounter that training would help them resolve?
I'd say that a lot of the challenges we see relate to the diversity on the line. There are a lot of different
types of people working at CapraTek and they don't always play well together.
What are the most important abilities for supervisors in our plants?
Well… the first thing that comes to mind is the ability to find information. Whether it's technical
information or answers for the people who report to you. Another key ability though is the ability to
acquire technical expertise. No one comes in knowing it all, but the ability to gain necessary
knowledge is very important.
What knowledge does a new supervisor need?
A solid understanding of the job itself. Supervisors provide a lot of training to new employees, so they
need to know our systems and processes inside and out.
Should training be conducted face to face, online, or a combination of both?
I'd say a combination. There are some topics that don't really need a classroom experience, but
others where the face-to-face interaction provides as much as the actual training materials. If it had to
be one or the other, I'd definitely say face to face.
Leland Butler, Shift Supervisor
What suggestions do you have for improvement in regards to training new supervisors?
Don't think you can cover this stuff once and be done with it. I went through supervisor training when I
was promoted, but I've gotta admit, I don't remember much of it. That kind of stuff doesn't always
stick unless you're doing it. Having an opportunity to be in the job and then get training on what you're
actually dealing with is better than sitting in a training room listening to someone talk about theories
and policies.
What challenges do supervisors in our plants encounter that training would help them resolve?
Well… like I said, being able to apply the leadership and supervisory ideas in realistic situations. I'm a
hands-on kind of person and it's always better if I can do something, so maybe like getting training on
performance reviews or some of the paperwork we're all dealing with. That would be helpful.
What are the most important abilities for supervisors in our plants?
Communication and flexibility. Hands down. You need to be able to shift gears decisively and
communicate with your team.
What knowledge does a new supervisor need?
He or she needs to know what the role of their team is to the division. How it all fits together. A good
supervisor needs to be able to communicate to the people who report to him what's going on and why
things are the way they are. So, he's got to be in .

MODIFICATIONS TOBASIC FUNCTIONAL
ANALYSIS PROCEDURES IN SCHOOL
SETTINGS: A SELECTIVE REVIEW
Janet Ellis* and Sandy Magee
University of North Texas, Denton, TX, USA
This review describes applied behavioral research involving functional analyses conducted in public
school settings. Functional analyses in public school settings often require added conditions. The
modified conditions described herein include changes to experimental designs, antecedent changes that
include task variation, tasks included, idiosyncratic variables, physiological conditions, and modified
escape conditions. Finally, consequent modifications cover peer attention, tangibles, varied attention,
and altered escape. Copyright # 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
INTRODUCTION
The primary body of functional analysis (FA) literature has historically focused on
persons with developmental disabilities in institutional/residential settings who
engaged in severe self-injurious behavior (SIB). Mace and Lalli (1991) noted that
interventions based on FAs conducted in experimental settings under highly
controlled analog conditions may be effective only to the extent that those analog
conditions match the subject’s natural environment. Johnston (1993) recommended
that, once a procedure has been experimentally developed, its value and applicability
should be assessed under practical/natural conditions. Further, passage of Public Law
105-17, Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), in 1997 mandated that a
‘functional behavioral assessment’ be conducted on students who exhibit significant
behavior and adjustment problems. For at least these reasons, FA research has moved
beyond the tightly controlled laboratory setting and into more natural environments
involving more diverse populations. Development of behavioral assessments of
problem behavior in school settings had empirical roots—for example, 36 years ago
Thomas, Becker, and Armstrong (1968) noted that classroom teacher’s disapproval

Shared Reading Framework
Follow this framework when viewing the video lessons for Days 1,2, & 3 from Ms. Chan’s class. Compare and contrast Ms. Chan’s teaching to what is listed on this page.
(Whole)
Read aloud a shared or big book to the students. Label each step and clearly state how you will accomplish this.
·
Introduce the book: Explain what you will say to the students to introduce the book to them, if you choose to point out concepts of book, concepts of print, predicting, etc.
·
Picture Walk: Explain what you will do to provide a Picture Walk for the students, telling all that you will say to the students.
·
Read the book aloud: Explain how you will read the book aloud to the students, will you stop, on what pages, what will you say.
·
Students’ Responses: Develop a set of both literal and higher-order thinking questions to elicit student responses, use Bloom’s or Webb’s as a guide to questions.
(PART)
Direct Instruction (Name the reading skill and explain what it means)
· Explain:
(I do) Explain to the students what they will be learning and why they should learn it. Explain the skill they will be learning and explain “how it works” Summarize the skill in your own words. Teacher tells students everything you want them to learn
(objectives).
· Demonstrate
: (I do) Show the students what you would like them to do. Demonstrate to them what they will be doing to help them learn the skill. You must explain what you will do to demonstrate the skill you will be teaching. PROVIDE EXAMPLES and link to your explain step.
· Guide:
(We do, more teacher responsibility, some student responsibility) Guide the students to discuss and/or attempt the skill you just demonstrated. Explain how you will guide the students to allow them opportunities to try to apply the skill. Give support and feedback. Teacher brings students into discussion about objective and gives guidance and feedback
. (Feedback must be accurate, positive and encouraging, but also firm.)
· Practice:
(We do, more student responsibility) Explain specifically how you will guide the students to practice applying the skill by allowing them to work together with less teacher support but still feedback.
(WHOLE)
· Application:
(You do) (Read the book again and this time ask the students to apply what they learned about the reading skill to the book you are rereading.) Explain what you will have the students do to apply the skill to the text. The students should demonstrate that they can meet objective in this step.
· Students Reflect:
(You do) Develop a set of 6 – 8 questions you would ask the students to reflect on what they learned about the reading skill and what they learned from the book you read to them. This is a good time to ask questions that would meet.

Seemingly riding on the coattails of SARS-CoV-2, the alarming sp.docxWilheminaRossi174
Seemingly riding on the coattails of SARS-CoV-2, the alarming spread of monkeypox across western Europe and the United States has filled the news cycle through the summer of 2022. Monkeypox is an orthopoxvirus, similar in presentation to smallpox and chickenpox (Varicella zoster). In contrast to the related poxviruses, monkeypox has been reported to spread by sexual contact and direct skin-to-skin contact, as well as through the traditional respiratory droplet route. While there is currently no effective treatment for infected individuals, two vaccines with good efficacy are available to help stem the spread of the disease. Likewise, individuals that have been vaccinated against smallpox with vaccinia virus have some protection against contracting monkeypox. While changes in sexual behavior among vulnerable populations has so far limited the outbreak, the disease is still spreading throughout the country and has caused a handful of deaths.
What is the life cycle of monkeypox, and how exactly is it spread? What does the fact that vaccination against smallpox provides some protection against monkeypox indicate about this virus? Also, what does the spread of monkeypox reveal about the susceptibility of the population to smallpox, a disease that has been considered eradicated worldwide since the late 1980s?
In addition to your original response, you will need to respond to at least two other students’ original posts. Responses should be substantive in nature instead of just reiterating what the original poster stated, or a “good job explaining” or “me too” type of post.
Please note that in your response, plagiarism is not allowed. Please do NOT simply cut and paste information from books, journals, websites, or other sources. In addition, direct quotation of sources, regardless of whether or not the source is cited, is not allowed. Please summarize the material and what you have learned in your own words.

Vision statement
Students will “Own Their learning”
Strategies that embed the mission and vision
It is possible for a school to convey its ethos, mission, goals, and values to its students, staff, and parents in a variety of different methods. A school's prospectus or handbook should present information in a way that is clear and easy to comprehend, taking into account the diverse ethnic group in the area and maybe translating the text into many languages. The website of the school is the spot that makes the most sense to transmit any sort of information regarding the institution as a whole, including its ethos and so on. The internet is the first place that people search for information in this day and age since it can be accessed from anywhere in the world and every school now has its own personal website. Again, in order to experience the true environment of the school, it is necessary to combine this mode of communication with a trip to the location itself.

Strategy 1

A well-defined statement that provides an explanation of the line of work that an individual plans to pursue over the entirety of his career is an example of a career objective. It is essential for each and every student to articulate their aspirations for their future careers. They are able to devise more efficient action plans as a result of this.

Finding and employing the appropriate faculty members is possibly the single most significant factor that will determine the institution's long-term success. Even though conducting interviews and making hires is seen by many as an art form, there are tried-and-true strategies that the school may employ to boost its chances of finding the proper people to work there. These approaches are suppo.

Segmented Assimilation Theory and theLife Model An Integrat.docxWilheminaRossi174
Segmented Assimilation Theory and the
Life Model: An Integrated Approach to
Understanding Immigrants and Their Children
Lissette M. Piedra and David W Engstrom
The life model offers social workers a promising framework to use in assisting immigrant
families. However, the complexities of adaptation to a new country may make it difficult
for social workers to operate from a purely ecological approach. The authors use segmented
assimilation theory to better account for the specificities of the immigrant experience. They
argue that by adding concepts from segmented assimilation theory to the life model, social
workers can better understand the environmental Stressors that increase the vulnerabilities
of immigrants to the potentially harsh experience of adapting to a new country. With these
concepts, social workers who work with immigrant families will be better positioned to
achieve their central goal: enhancing person and environment fit.
KEY WORDS: acculturation; assimilation; immigrants; life model; second generation
Nearly a century ago,Jane Addams (1910)
observed that immigrants needed help
integrating their European and American
experiences to give them meaning and a sense of
relation:
Power to see life as a whole is more needed in
the immigrant quarter of the city than anywhere
else Why should the chasm between fathers
and sons, yawning at the feet of each generation,
be made so unnecessarily cruel and impassable
to these bewildered immigrants? (p. 172)
The inability of some immigrant families to
integrate the cultural capital from the world left
behind with the demands of the new society creates
a gulf of experience between immigrants and their
children that can undermine the parental relation-
ship. Today, the issue of family cohesion in the face
of acculturative Stressors remains central to the im-
migrant experience and creates a sense of urgency
because it is so linked with the success of the second
generation. The size of the immigrant population
and the role their children \vill play in future labor
markets (Morales & Bonilla, 1993; Sullivan, 2006)
moves the problem from the realm of the person
to the status of a larger public concern.
Immigrant families are rapidly becoming the
"typical" American family. More than one in seven
families in the United States is headed by a foreign-
born adult. Children of immigrant parents are the
fastest growing segment of the nation's child popula-
tion (Capps, Fix, Ost, Reardon-Anderson, & Passel,
2004).The U.S. Census Bureau (2003) reported that
slightly more than 14 million children (approxi-
mately one in five) live in immigrant families; the
percentage is even higher (22 percent) for children
under the age of six (U.S. Census Bureau, 2001).
At a structural level, these changing demographics
create large-scale and long-range effects that bear
on many social services and many issues of social
pohcy (Sullivan, 2006). Specifically, the population
growth of native-born children in nonwhite.

Select a local, state, or national public policy that is relevant today in the local, regional, or national news
Examples:
Local: community or urban growth (examples: results of rezoning, reuse of public structures, closed down school/public buildings that will convert to private business enterprise).
State: Private land converted to public spaces (examples: airports, road, or highway usage).
Federal: Gun policy, drug policy, immigration (examples: effects on jobs, background checks, cultural changes in communities).
Identify how the policy was formulated from a historical standpoint and identify which stakeholders were involved in the process.
Appraise the position whether the policy creates a benefit for one group (or stakeholder) while other groups experience disadvantages or negative challenges because of public policy implementation.

School Effects on Psychological Outcomes During Adolescence.docxWilheminaRossi174
School Effects on Psychological Outcomes During Adolescence
Eric M. Anderman
University of Kentucky
Data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health were used to examine school-level
differences in the relations between school belonging and various outcomes. In Study 1, predictors of
belonging were examined. Results indicated that belonging was lower in urban schools than in suburban
schools, and lower in schools that used busing practices than those that did not. In Study 2, the relations
between belonging and psychological outcomes were examined. The relations varied depending on the
unit of analysis (individual vs. aggregated measures of belonging). Whereas individual students’
perceptions of belonging were inversely related to depression, social rejection, and school problems,
aggregated belonging was related to greater reports of social rejection and school problems and to higher
grade point average.
Research on school-level differences during adolescence often
has focused on nonpsychological outcomes, such as academic
achievement and behavioral issues, instead of on psychological
outcomes (Roeser, 1998). Indeed, research on school-level differ-
ences in nonacademic variables is quite rare. The purpose of the
present research was to examine school-level differences in a
variety of psychological outcomes, using a large nationally repre-
sentative sample of adolescents.
School Effects on Student Outcomes
Although there is an abundant literature on effective schools,
most of the research in this literature has focused on academic
variables, such as achievement, dropping out, and grade point
average (GPA; e.g., Edmonds, 1979; Miller, 1985; Murphy, Weil,
Hallinger, & Mitman, 1985). This literature generally indicates
that schools that are academically effective have certain recogniz-
able characteristics.
Some of these studies have examined differences between pub-
lic schools and other types of schools. For example, some research
indicates that students who attend public schools achieve more
academically than do students who attend other types of schools
(e.g., Coleman & Hoffer, 1987). Other research suggests that there
may be a benefit in terms of academic achievement for students
who attend Catholic schools compared with non-Catholic schools
(Bryk, Lee, & Holland, 1993). Lee and her colleagues (Lee,
Chow-Hoy, Burkam, Geverdt, & Smerdon, 1998) found that stu-
dents who attended private schools took more advanced math
courses than did students who attended public schools. However,
they also found specific benefits for Catholic schools: Specifically,
in Catholic schools, there was greater school influence on the
courses that students took, and the social distribution of course
enrollment was found to be particularly equitable.
In recent years, psychologists have started to become interested
in the effects of schooling on mental health outcomes (e.g., Boe-
kaerts, 1993; Cowen, 1991; Roeser, Eccles, & Strobel, 1998;
Rutter,.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Signature AssignmentA ~5+ page single-spaced paper will incorp
1. Signature Assignment
A ~5+ page single-spaced paper will incorporate global health
issues and solutions through interventions to these issues.
Choose any of the issues or diseases (or make your own up!)
from the list below that are considered global public health
problems. In the introduction, provide epidemiological
information on the following: morbidity and mortality among
the specific group, community, or country (not the USA).
Discuss at least three interventions published in the scholarly
literature to address the crisis in a country of your choice.
Evaluate the progress and outcomes of such prevention
programs. Describe the intervention (e.g. target audience,
experimental/control group, intervention methods and materials,
intervention outcomes) and assess the methods used in the
intervention (e.g. level of the intervention, strengths and
weaknesses of the intervention, potential
impact/generalizability of the intervention).

Intervention example description:
The first intervention that I will discuss addressing Ebola
outbreaks was conducted by Doctors without Borders in 1995
(Kerstein & Matthys, 1999). The intervention took place in
Kikwit, Congo, which has approximately 200,000 inhabitants
and two hospitals (Kikwit General Hospital and Kikwit II
Hospital). The intervention actually occurred within the
hospital setting, in an isolation ward. It was compared to a
separate hospital in order to determine the intervention
significance. The intervention included building an isolation
ward specifically for Ebola patients with the use of trained CDC
physicians to educate the local staff on and Ebola, cleaning,
body burial, disinfection and antiseptic techniques, adequate
water supply, a waste-disposal system, and usage of proper PPE
(Kerstein & Matthys, 1999). Overall, the intervention was
successful, though there were various strengths and weaknesses
associated with it. The strengths were that it was a novel
approach focusing on Ebola outbreaks and quarantine situations
and ultimately, it controlled the outbreak. The weakness
included the cost or expensiveness and reliance on donors, the
3. need of trained physicians and staff to assist in education, and
the potential difficulty in the scale-up. However, the
intervention impact was significant. It could be generalized and
transferable to all populations in different settings affected by
Ebola outbreaks. This study was conducted in 1999 and is
currently being employed in the Ebola outbreak of 2014,
throughout West Africa (Kerstein & Matthys, 1999).
