There were several important themes in chapter 1 and 2. Here are a few quotes: “Policy-making and its subsequent implementation is necessary to deal with societal problems.” (Janssen, 2015) “Policy-making is driven by the need to solve societal problems and should result in interventions to solve these societal problems.” (Janssen, 2015) “Examples of societal problems are unemployment, pollution, water quality, safety, criminality, well-being, health, and immigration.” (Janssen, 2015) The author of chapter 1 discusses several developments that influence policy-making. Select one of the developments in chapter 1 and describe how that development can influence policy to solve a specific problem. You must do the following: 1) Create a new thread. As indicated above, select one of the developments in chapter 1 and describe how that development can influence policy to solve a specific problem. 2) Select AT LEAST 3 other students' threads and post substantive comments on those threads. Your comments should extend the conversation started with the thread. ALL original posts and comments must be substantive. (I'm looking for about a paragraph - not just "I agree.")

As noted by Janssen, Wimmer, and Delijoo (2015), public values may differ over time. Additionally, public values may differ based on the policy-making cycle. The following items are public values the policy cycle: Policy enforcement and evaluation Policy formulation Policy execution Policy implementation Select and elaborate on one of the public values in the policy-making cycle. Remember your initial post on the main topic should be posted by Wednesday 11:59 PM (EST). Your 2 following posts should be commenting on your classmates’ post on different days by Sunday 11:59 PM (EST). You should end the week with 3 total discussion posts. A quality post is more than stating, “I agree with you.” Maybe you should state why you agree with your classmate’s post. Additionally, post some examples or find a related topic on the internet or University’s library and comment on it in the discussion post. Reference: Janssen, M., Wimmer, M. A., & Deljoo, A. (Eds.).

Societies face several challenges with a high impact on the overall development and evolution. That being said, some of the major issues include: climate change, sustainability, limited access to sanitation, poverty, poor infrastructure, low levels of education and overall low levels of economic activity that affects employment or overall country development. To that end, you have been appointed by a task force of the world bank to identify opportunities on how to reframe one of the above-mentioned issues and provide a deep understanding of the people impacted by the respective social problem. To do so, you will have to select a country of your choice and use both theoretical and practical dimensions to provide a detailed analysis by answering the following questions: - What is the challenge? Where is this happening? - provide date to substantiate the respective problem, its size and impact - What is driving or causing it? What makes it so important for that specific country/area? - Who are the people most impacted (general characteristics and main pains)? How do they behave? - Are there any possible solutions already developed? Why are they not good enough? - How might we solve this challenge (initial thoughts and ideas on how this problem can be addressed To do so, you will have to prepare a 2000-word report that utilizes frameworks, design thinking principles, wide research, and your own interpretation of the critical issues necessary to address the underlying complexity..

Madison was deeply concerned with factions. Since he denied the possibility that we could ever get rid of them, he instead suggested to multiply them in order to prevent any one faction from taking over, but also to avoid political polarization. For this paper, please read Yasha Mounk's piece in The New Yorker and listen to the recent podcast of On the Media (both are posted in the Madison module). Both Mounk and the podcast address the question of polarization. In your response paper, please focus on the following questions: What are the different reasons for the (presumed) growing polarization in American politics that you encountered in the Mounk reading and the podcast? Finally, what are the dangers that both Mounk and the contributors to the podcast see in this development and how are they related to our discussion of Madison? Do you agree with these assessments? https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2018/07/02/the-rise-of-mcpolitics .

Instructions As you have explored in this unit, advancements in technology can have both individual and societal impacts. However, the impacts experienced by an individual are different than those experienced by society. Consider energy. The advent of new technologies to switch from fossil to renewable fuels may lead to loss of income, poverty, and homelessness. This can impact individual emotions, mental health, the sense of well-being, increased substance abuse, and changes in cognitive function; in contrast, technology may impact society and lead to changes in social mobility, public health, crime rates, social cohesion, and political stability. In this assignment, you are asked to write an essay that includes your analysis of the chosen technology's individual/sociological impacts. You may choose any recent (last 10 years) technological advancement to complete this assignment. Some areas to consider: Communication Transportation Energy Medicine Education Your completed essay will include at least one paragraph for each of the following: Description of the technological advancement chosen Explanation of your choice of technological advancement First individual impact with one (1) external reference Choose from the following: Emotions Mental health Sense of well-being Substance use Cognitive functioning Second individual impact with one (1) external reference Choose a different impact from the individual list. First sociological impact with one (1) external reference Choose from the following: Social mobility Public health trends Crime rates Social cohesion Political stability Second individual impact with one (1) external reference Choose a different impact from the societal list. Your analysis of how these impacts are similar and how they are different based on whether they are individual or societal means supporting your analysis with existing sources or, as needed, new ones. Your analysis of how the individual impacts influence the societal ones will support your analysis with existing sources or, as needed, new ones. A summary of what you have learned about the difference between the individual and the societal impacts of technological change, use internal sources* as needed. *Note that an internal source is anything you use from the course content. Be sure to use appropriate sources for the external references required for this assignment. .

Westefeld The University of Iowa Carolyn Heckman-Stone Iowa State University Crisis intervention is a role that fits exceedingly well with counseling psychologists’ interests and skills. This article provides an overview of a new crisis intervention model, the Integrated Problem-Solving Model (IPSM), and demonstrates its application to a specific crisis, sexual assault. It is hoped that this article will encourage counseling psychologists to become more involved in crisis intervention itself as well as in research and training in this important area. Recently, significant crisis events (e.g., sexual assaults, school shootings, terrorist attacks, and other violent crimes) have received major media atten- tion. This has led, among other things, to an increased interest in this topic as a subspecialty among human service providers (James & Gilliland, 2001). In addition, it appears that we live in an increasingly fast-paced and technological society in which individuals may be less connected with family and other positive influences than in the past (Pitcher & Poland, 1992). Mental health professionals need to be prepared to help society cope with such crises, and counseling psychologists are particularly well suited for this type of intervention. Coping with life transitions, a major focus of counseling psychology throughout its history, sometimes involves the successful negotiation of crises (Brown & Lent, 2000). Counseling psychologists are particularly skilled in promoting self-enhancement among relatively healthy individuals, which is often the case in crisis situations. In addition, crisis intervention matches well with counseling psychologists’ skills at implementing brief, problem- solving, developmental, educational, and self-empowering intervention approaches. Relatively few articles have been published in The Counseling Psycholo- gist concerning crisis intervention and the role of the counseling psycholo- 221 Correspondence concerning this article should be addressed to John S.

Indeed, we believe that the field of counseling psychology has not his- torically seen itself as working extensively in this area. Interestingly, in 1979—more than 20 years ago—Baldwin published an excellent manuscript in The Counseling Psychologist, wherein he reviewed crisis theory, discussed types of crises, and described his own stage model of crisis intervention. Baldwin’s model consisted of the following major steps: catharsis/assess- m.
