Week 5 Once you have a fairly narrow research question and have conducted a thorough literature review, the next step is to turn your attention to the research design. The research design is simply a plan for how you will conduct your research, as it informs each step of the research process. In addition to research design, you are introduced to the concepts of internal and external validity and generalizability. During the latter half of the week, you focus on a particular instrument of measurement: the pretest and posttest. Capturing information from research study participants both before and after a particular event can yield priceless data. Learning Objectives Students will: Classify types of group research designs Analyze possible study limitations Analyze relative internal and external validity Analyze generalizability Analyze a pretest–posttest in a case study Evaluate research designs to assess program effectiveness Analyze potential lessons learned from attrition Group Research Designs for Social Work Knowledge Development and Practice Evaluation o Leung,P.,Erich,S.,&Kanenberg,H.(2005).A comparison of family functioning in gay/lesbian, heterosexual and special needs adoptions, Children and Youth Services Review, 27 (9), 1031–1044. o Moran, J., & Bussey, M.

Discussion 1: Group Research Designs
(Due on 6/30/21)
There are several different types of research designs. Each design is intended to respond to a particular type of research question. The type of research design depends on the type of research questions asked. For this Discussion, select one of the articles from the reading list and consider several classifications of group research designs.
Post your response to the following: Describe which groups are compared in the research. Then, classify the research design as follows:
1. By explaining whether the study is pre-experimental (cross-sectional, one-shot case study, and longitudinal), experimental (control group with pretest and posttest, posttest only, or four-group design), or quasi-experimental (comparing one group to itself at different times or comparing two different groups)
2. By indicating what the researchers report about limitations of the study
3. By explaining concerns you have regarding internal validity and the ability of the study to draw conclusions about causality
4. By explaining any concerns you have about the generalizability of the study (external validity) and what aspect of the research design might limit generalizability

Hernandez Family Episode 5 Program Transcript
FEMALE SPEAKER: They've missed four of their parenting classes so far.
FEMALE SPEAKER: So they haven't completed their parenting group?
FEMALE SPEAKER: I have to call the ACS worker and let her know. They're probably going to have to take the classes over again, and that's going to be tough. The classes caused the father to miss overtime at work, and they really rely on that money to make ends meet.
FEMALE SPEAKER: But they have to finish the program. They're only allowed three missed classes. There's another problem. You know the agency's been conducting a study of our performance. Well, it lowers our completion numbers. Lower numbers put our funding at risk. Our bosses start questioning the credibility of what we're trying to do here.
FEMALE SPEAKER: But I can't give the Hernandez family the post test. They won't be able to complete it.
FEMALE SPEAKER: No, that's not why I brought this up. The agency needs data to determine how effective these parenting classes are. The more attrition we have when parents don't finish the program, there's no data. No data means no support for what we're teaching or how it might benefit other populations.
FEMALE SPEAKER: Maybe we should account for the attrition then. Maybe there's something we can learn from it?

Autism is a complicated progressive disability. Researchers think that Autism exhibits itself during the age of 18 to 36 months old. The illness is the effect of a neurological condition that has an influence on natural brain performance, effecting promotion of the individual’s social and communication abilities. A student with an autism disorder will have a problem with non-verbal skills, and difficulty with activities which involve an environment of play and/or joking. They could have uncommon replies to society, connections to items, refusal to accept an adjustment in their daily routines, and severe behavior challenges.
Autism Challenges
I am Interested in understanding Autism behavior challenges to improve classroom management. As a Special Education teacher understanding Autism behaviors can be very beneficial. A projection of 1 in every 68 citizens in the country has various types of autism; boys are more prevalent than girls. Several professionals think that this (ASD) is linked hereditary or through the atmosphere. Studies show in a classroom of 18 or more. Typically, at least two of the classroom children for each one student are diagnosed with (ASD). Children with (ASD) show disruptive behaviors, and many of them have problems like harming self and anger tantrum. Behaviors form anxiety for parents and specialists, because it inconsistent with the development of desired behaviors and communication skills (DSM-5, 2013), and have risks on child himself and others. Findings show after researching over a hundred teachers in a public major school of students who strugglers with ASDs.
Lack of classroom management, and inconsistent strategies played a huge factor in behaviors. An effort to be made by schools to address the teacher’s perception of causes of challenging behavior as it has an influence on their choice of management strategies. Also, the teachers agreed that the behavior was learned,
and could be improved, but they did not often use strategies that are commonly considered to be effective, at least within the fields of ABA and PBS (Baron, Groden, & Lipsitt 2006). Consistency and reinforcement, they are solutions for resolving occurring behaviors, which increase the likelihood that behavior will continue to occur or occur more often (Cooper, Heron, & Heward, 2007).

What is an annotated bibliography?
An annotated bibliography is a list of citations to books, articles, web pages, and other
documents. The reference citation is listed first and is followed by a brief description. The
annotation informs the reader of the relevance and quality of the sources cited.
What is the purpose of the annotated bibliography?
In certain classes, you will be asked to write an annotated bibliography, which sounds quite
intimidating, but is simply a brief summary of something you have read or consulted during the
course of your research on a given subject. The annotated bibliography has a structured format,
and the purpose for this is to provide the organizational tool you need to keep track of your
research and references. The bibliography may serve a number of purposes: illustrate the quality
of research, provide examples, review literature on a particular subject, or provide further
exploration of the subject.

Starting the Research ProcessFormulating a specific, applica.docx
Starting the Research Process
Formulating a specific, applicable research problem statement is an important step in beginning a research process. The problem statement defines the focus of the research study, dictates what methods and tools will be used, and sets the stage for all subsequent elements of the research process. Because of this, it is necessary to put a great deal of thought into the problem statement to ensure that the rest of the research process will be well planned and appropriate to the problem at hand.
This week’s Discussion asks you to identify evidence-based practice problems that can be addressed using quantitative research methods. Based on the practice problem you select, formulate a quantitative research problem statement. In this Discussion, you are also given the opportunity to evaluate your colleagues’ problem statements. Please refer to this week’s Learning Resources for appropriate and scholarly examples of research problem statements and how they inform the rest of the research process.
To prepare:
Determine a nursing practice problem that is of interest to you and that is appropriate for a quantitative research study.
Note:
You will continue to use this problem in the Discussions over the next several weeks.
Using the Walden Library and other credible sources, locate and read two or three articles that address your practice problem.
(you must cite the articles read in this assignment)
With your practice problem in mind, review the Learning Resources and media presentations focusing on the strategies presented for generating a research problem statement.
Ask yourself: What is the importance of my practice problem to nursing, research, and theory? How might addressing this problem bring about positive social change? How will investigating this problem support evidence-based practice?
By Tomorrow 09/06/17, write a minimum of 550 words in APA format with a minimum of 3 references from the list below which include the level one headings as numbered below:
Post
1) A proposed research problem statement (it has to be related to nursing for example: could be on diabetes, heart failure or more …)
2) Including sufficient information to make your focus clear and explaining how addressing this problem may bring about positive social change.

PSY 326 Research Methods Week 2 Guidance
Welcome to Week 2 of Research Methods! This week, you will have an overview of qualitative versus quantitative, and experimental versus non-experimental research approaches. Required resources are sections 1.2, 1.3, 2.1, and 5.2 of the textbook (Newman, 2016), two research studies (Blixen, Perzyski, Bukah, Howland, & Sajatovic, 2016; Boyers & Rowe, 2018), and three helpful videos about writing research questions and hypotheses. The videos are linked in the Course Materials and the written assignment prompt.
Assignments for the week include a discussion, an interactive learning activity and quiz, a journal exercise, and a written assignment. To see how your assignments will be graded, look at the rubrics accessible through a link on the screen for each discussion or assignment.
The Week 2 discussion is Method Comparisons. Your initial post is due by Day 3, and all replies are due by Day 7. To prepare for the discussion, read the sections of the textbook listed above and the lecture portion of this instructor guidance. Your initial discussion post will have two parts. The first part is the same for everyone. Explain the similarities and differences between qualitative and quantitative research. Then, explain the difference between experimental and non-experimental research.
The second part of the post is a jigsaw puzzle. Instead of having the entire class read and report on four categories of research, each person will research and report on one category. Categories are assigned based on the first letter of your last name. When you determine your assigned category, use the Research Methods research guide and the databases in the Ashford University Library to find at least two scholarly/peer-reviewed articles about that type of research. Then, describe the features of the research category, name at least one specific research design in the category, and suggest a suitable topic for this type of research. Document your sources in APA style.
At least three replies to the initial posts of classmates will be required for this discussion, because you must read and respond to at least one post about each of the other three research categories. As the expert on your assigned category, you will also be expected to respond to questions posted on your thread by others. See the discussion prompt for complete details.
After you have learned about the research design categories from the assigned readings and participating in the discussion, you will be ready to do the interactive learning activity and take the quiz called Name That Design Category, due by Day 6. In the first part of the learning activity, match the name of the design category with its description. In the scenarios presented in the second part of the learning activity, you must select all categories of research that apply, and not select any that do not apply to the described research situation. When you have mastered the interactive learning activity, ...

PSY 326 Research Methods Week 2 Guidance
Welcome to Week 2 of Research Methods! This week, you will have an overview of qualitative versus quantitative, and experimental versus non-experimental research approaches. Required resources are sections 1.2, 1.3, 2.1, and 5.2 of the textbook (Newman, 2016), two research studies (Blixen, Perzyski, Bukah, Howland, & Sajatovic, 2016; Boyers & Rowe, 2018), and three helpful videos about writing research questions and hypotheses. The videos are linked in the Course Materials and the written assignment prompt.
Assignments for the week include a discussion, an interactive learning activity and quiz, a journal exercise, and a written assignment. To see how your assignments will be graded, look at the rubrics accessible through a link on the screen for each discussion or assignment.
The Week 2 discussion is Method Comparisons. Your initial post is due by Day 3, and all replies are due by Day 7. To prepare for the discussion, read the sections of the textbook listed above and the lecture portion of this instructor guidance. Your initial discussion post will have two parts. The first part is the same for everyone. Explain the similarities and differences between qualitative and quantitative research. Then, explain the difference between experimental and non-experimental research.
The second part of the post is a jigsaw puzzle. Instead of having the entire class read and report on four categories of research, each person will research and report on one category. Categories are assigned based on the first letter of your last name. When you determine your assigned category, use the Research Methods research guide and the databases in the Ashford University Library to find at least two scholarly/peer-reviewed articles about that type of research. Then, describe the features of the research category, name at least one specific research design in the category, and suggest a suitable topic for this type of research. Document your sources in APA style.
At least three replies to the initial posts of classmates will be required for this discussion, because you must read and respond to at least one post about each of the other three research categories. As the expert on your assigned category, you will also be expected to respond to questions posted on your thread by others. See the discussion prompt for complete details.
After you have learned about the research design categories from the assigned readings and participating in the discussion, you will be ready to do the interactive learning activity and take the quiz called Name That Design Category, due by Day 6. In the first part of the learning activity, match the name of the design category with its description. In the scenarios presented in the second part of the learning activity, you must select all categories of research that apply, and not select any that do not apply to the described research situation. When you have mastered the interactive learning activity, ...

ED523 Research Analysis
Purpose:
Finding research-based instructional practices that are applicable to your unique classroom situation can inform your practice. In this assignment you will use the ERIC database in the University Library to select an article to analyze. In Unit 3, you will write a lesson plan using what you have learned from this article about your chosen instructional technique.
Directions:
Choose one instructional method that is applicable to your unique classroom situation. This can be based on what you have learned in previous courses or from your own experience. Some suggestions can be found in the Bullmaster literature review in Unit 2.
Go to the University Library to search the ERIC, Academic Search Premier, or Professional Development Collection databases and select one full text article on your chosen instructional method. Examples of possible topics might be discovery learning, scaffolding, nonlinguistic representations, cooperative learning, etc. (This topic can also be used for your Literature Review due in Unit 6. If you find several articles of interest, you might want to save them for your Literature Review.)
Write a 2-3 page paper analyzing and reflecting on the article you read. Use the following headers and discussion questions to frame your research analysis assignment.
Research Problem:
· What are the research questions? What is the hypothesis being tested?
Literature Review/ Theoretical Framework: (This will be a summary of the author’s literature review included in the article. You will not need to create a new literature review.)
· What general field of knowledge does this study investigate? Examples could include: Research on Teacher Effectiveness, Research on Self-Reflective Learning, Research on Gender Differences in Mathematics Performance, etc.
· List three key points from the study’s literature review that help the reader understand what is already known about the subject, and the purpose of this study in light of other studies.
· Cite at least one study used by the author for each of the three points you list.
Research Design:
· Describe the research design (experimental, correlational, descriptive, etc.).
· Describe the method(s) of data collection.
· Describe the method(s) of data analysis.
· Experimental studies seek to prove cause-and-effect relationships. The role of the researcher is to introduce a change (known as a "treatment") into a situation and note the results. Collecting data in experimental studies is accomplished through observation, "counting," and measurement. The data is then analyzed by statistical methods. These studies are sometimes referred to as quantitative studies.
· Correlational studies can be descriptive or experimental, and they seek to prove a relationship between events without any manipulation of those events by the researcher. Data from correlational studies is analyzed by statistical methods.
· Descriptive or qualitative studies report and ana.

Discussion Board 2: Learning Styles/Personality
After reading Chapter 7: Strategic Learning and Studying & chapter 8: Test-Taking Skills and Strategies, and looking at the Learning Style Youtube clip in this module, I would like for you to answer the following questions in the Discussion Board:
1) What is your preferred learning style?
2) What is your preferred learning environment (sound, temperature, lighting, lecture vs. hands-on vs. discussion, working with others or not, etc.)?
3) What are some strategies (according to your learning style) you use to study?

1. Learning Styles - Discussion Board
1) What is your preferred learning style? I am definitely a kinesthetic learner. I can hear something or study something but will not feel comfortable with it until I have hands on experience with it.
2) What is your preferred learning environment (sound, temperature, lighting, lecture vs. hands-on vs. discussion, working with others or not, etc.)? My preferred learning environment is in a classroom setting with others. Working with other classmates on projects really seems to help me. Good lighting is always helpful.
3) What are some strategies (according to your learning style) you use to study? I like to take notes during instruction. Since that is not possible through online classes participating in the discussions with other classmates is also a good way to study and learn. Their perspective on a topic can be a different way at looking at something that I may not have learned on my own.
2. Learning Styles - Discussion Board
My proffered learning style is visual and kinesthetic. I like studying in a bright cold room because it is harder to get tired because we all know studying is tiring. I usually just were headphones and study alone as well. Strategies I use to study include reading the content over and over again, writing down notes on the material multiple times, and using flash cards to help me.

Use the Capella library to locate two psychology research articles.docx
Use the Capella library to locate two psychology research articles: a quantitative methods article and a qualitative methods article. These do not need to be on the same topic, but if you have a research topic in mind for your proposal (see Assessment 5), you may wish to pick something similar for this assessment. Read each article carefully.
Then, in a 2–3-page assessment, address the following elements:
1 Summarize the research question and hypothesis, the research methods, and the overall findings.
2 Compare the research methodologies used in each study. In what ways are the methodologies similar? In what ways are they different? (Be sure to use the technical psychological terms we are studying.)
3 Describe the sample and sample size for each study. Which one used a larger sample and why? How were participants selected?
4 Describe the data collection process for each study. What methods were used to collect the data? Surveys? Observations? Interviews? Be specific and discuss the instruments or measures fully—what do they measure? How is the test designed?
5 Summarize the data analysis process for each study. How was the data analyzed? Were statistics used? Were interviews coded?
6 In conclusion, craft 1–2 paragraphs explaining how these two articles illustrate the main differences between quantitative and qualitative research.
Additional Requirements
· Written communication: Written communication should be free of errors that detract from the overall message.
· APA formatting: Your assessment should be formatted according to APA (6th ed.) style and formatting.
· Length: A typical response will be 2–3 typed and double-spaced pages.
Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12 point.
Research Methods
There are many different types of research studies, and the type of study that is done depends very much on the research question. Some studies demand strictly numerical data, such as a comparison of GPA among different college majors or weight loss among different types of eating programs. Others require more in-depth data, like interview responses. Such studies might include the lived experience of people that have been through a terrorist attack or understanding the experience of being physically disabled on a college campus. While there are a number of different types of studies that can be done, all of them fall under two basic categories: quantitative and qualitative.
Quantitative Research
Quantitative research deals with numerical data. This means that any topic you study in a quantitative study must be quantifiable—grades, weight, height, depression, and intelligence are all things that can be quantified on some scale of measurement. Quantitative data is often considered hard data—numbers are seen as concrete, irrefutable evidence, but we have to take into account a number of factors that could impact such data. Errors in measurement and recording of such data, as well as the influence of other factors outside those in the study, make for ...

EDR8200-4
This is a North Central University essay about synthesizing, critiqueing, and interpreting educational neuroscience literature.
Educational neuroscience is an emerging field of study with foundations in neuroscience, cognitive science, biology, developmental psychology, education, and other related disciplines (Ansari, & Coch, 2006; Meltzoff, Kuhl, Movellan, & Sejnowski, 2009). Although literature for the proposed research is limited, the inquiry will explore the development of adult metacognition from the context of cognitive science and neurosciences. The primary aim is to discover if cognitive processes allow metacognition to increase naturally with age. Findings would inform educational practices as well as bridge the gap between education and neuroscience disciplines. Meltzoff, Kuhl, Movellan, and Sejnowski (2009) noted that the human brain must be adaptable with plasticity to prepare our bodies for quick responses to external and internal issues (Neural Plasticity, p. 7). The essay is written in APA format, includes references, and has been graded by an instructor (A).

Introduction
Autism researchers continue to grapple with activities that best serve the purpose of fostering positive interpersonal relationships for children with autism. Children have benefited from therapy sessions that provide ongoing activities to aid their ability to engage in healthy social interactions. However, less is known about how K–12 schools might implement programs for this group of individuals to provide additional opportunities for growth, or even if and how school programs would be of assistance in the end. There is a gap in understanding the possibilities of implementing such programs in schools to foster the social and mental health of children with autism. The six articles I selected for this assignment present research on different types of therapeutic programs that have been used to promote social interactions in children with autism.
Annotated Bibliography on Autism
Wimpory, D. C., & Nash, S. (1999). Musical interaction therapy – therapeutic play for children with autism. Child Language and Teaching Therapy, 15(1), 17–28. https://doi.org/10.1177/026565909901500103
Wimpory and Nash provided a case study
for implementing music interaction therapy as part of play therapy aimed at cultivating communication skills in infants with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The researchers based their argument on films taken of play-based therapy sessions that introduced music interaction therapy. To assess the success of music play, Wimpory and Nash filmed the follow-up play-based interaction between the parent and the child. The follow-up interactions revealed that 20 months after the introduction of music play, the child developed prolonged playful interaction with both the psychologist and the parent. The follow-up films also revealed that the child initiated spontaneously pretend play during these later sessions. After the introduction of music, the child began to develop appropriate language skills.
Since the publication date for this case study is 1999, the results are dated. Although this study found that music interaction therapy is useful, emerging research in the field has undoubtedly changed in the time since this article was published. Wimpory and Nash wrote this article for a specific audience, including psychologists and researchers working with infants diagnosed with ASD. Their focus means that others beyond these fields may not find the findings applicable to their work.
I am interested in the role of music in therapy to foster social and mental health in children with ASD. Therefore, Wimpory and Nash’s research is useful to me for background information on the implementation of music into play-based therapy in infants with ASD. Wimpory and Nash presented a basis for this t ...

Contamination is real issue in numerous governments subsequently law.docx
Contamination is real issue in numerous governments subsequently laws are advanced to help shield the earth from undesirable waste transfer. Lethal contamination is a noteworthy danger. It influences both the vegetation and water holds. Mercury is a noteworthy contamination material it influences vegetation, air and water. Waste materials that transmit radiation are more hazardous. The impacts of radiation can be felt for more periods than some other poisons. In the ground it consolidates with soil and this can think that some way or another into products. In the event that breathed in it causes distortion of the body and now and again tumor which murders more individuals in America and other western nations (Nemerow & Agardy, 1998).
Dumping of substance waste by businesses crushes the earth by contaminating water as well as makes the dirt barren. Nourishment edit that has been developed from this influenced range is considered unfit for human utilization. The military has been excused from testing their weapons in zone that damage the human right (Cheremisinoff, 2003).
Organization logos that show or publicize that their item are not disregarding any of the natural demonstrations and actually are discovered to be in infringement are in this manner said to be honing encroachment. This falls notice is an infringement in the Lanham demonstration. It expresses that an organization must record or register their logo. This guarantees that if there should arise an occurrence of an infringement by an alternate organization they can petition for a common activity. This right is disregarded when a man is in ownership of merchandise or administrations with a name or mark that is made to befuddle or misdirect as to the cause of the item. These laws additionally keep the advisement and advancement of products in the terms of their land starting point and quality. This miss presentation may hurt the client or business subsequently the holder may confront common activity due to the false proclamation (Pepper et al., 2006).
These demonstrations are the laws that shield nature from undesirable lethal waste transfer any plant or organization wanting to arrange waste must have freedom from the obliged powers. People in general have the privilege to put forth assert in defense there is an infringement of any of this demonstrations by any organization. These demonstrations experience various alterations to adapt to the current difficulties of waste transfer and contamination. The United States of America has through the years seen to it that the commercial ventures to don't share in unlawful exercises that annihilate the earth (Nemerow & Agardy, 1998). Along these lines investigating the past demonstrations helps close on crevices or proviso that commercial ventures can take advantage on purposely or unknowingly.
On account of straightforward green items, the waste materials dumped in the landfill where disregarding the strong waste transfer. This is on.

3) What are some strategies (according to your learning style) you use to study? I like to take notes during instruction. Since that is not possible through online classes participating in the discussions with other classmates is also a good way to study and learn. Their perspective on a topic can be a different way at looking at something that I may not have learned on my own.
2. Learning Styles - Discussion Board
My proffered learning style is visual and kinesthetic. I like studying in a bright cold room because it is harder to get tired because we all know studying is tiring. I usually just were headphones and study alone as well. Strategies I use to study include reading the content over and over again, writing down notes on the material multiple times, and using flash cards to help me.

Use the Capella library to locate two psychology research articles.docx
Use the Capella library to locate two psychology research articles: a quantitative methods article and a qualitative methods article. These do not need to be on the same topic, but if you have a research topic in mind for your proposal (see Assessment 5), you may wish to pick something similar for this assessment. Read each article carefully.
Then, in a 2–3-page assessment, address the following elements:
1 Summarize the research question and hypothesis, the research methods, and the overall findings.
2 Compare the research methodologies used in each study. In what ways are the methodologies similar? In what ways are they different? (Be sure to use the technical psychological terms we are studying.)
3 Describe the sample and sample size for each study. Which one used a larger sample and why? How were participants selected?
4 Describe the data collection process for each study. What methods were used to collect the data? Surveys? Observations? Interviews? Be specific and discuss the instruments or measures fully—what do they measure? How is the test designed?
5 Summarize the data analysis process for each study. How was the data analyzed? Were statistics used? Were interviews coded?
6 In conclusion, craft 1–2 paragraphs explaining how these two articles illustrate the main differences between quantitative and qualitative research.
Additional Requirements
· Written communication: Written communication should be free of errors that detract from the overall message.
· APA formatting: Your assessment should be formatted according to APA (6th ed.) style and formatting.
· Length: A typical response will be 2–3 typed and double-spaced pages.
Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12 point.
Research Methods
There are many different types of research studies, and the type of study that is done depends very much on the research question. Some studies demand strictly numerical data, such as a comparison of GPA among different college majors or weight loss among different types of eating programs. Others require more in-depth data, like interview responses. Such studies might include the lived experience of people that have been through a terrorist attack or understanding the experience of being physically disabled on a college campus. While there are a number of different types of studies that can be done, all of them fall under two basic categories: quantitative and qualitative.
Quantitative Research
Quantitative research deals with numerical data. This means that any topic you study in a quantitative study must be quantifiable—grades, weight, height, depression, and intelligence are all things that can be quantified on some scale of measurement. Quantitative data is often considered hard data—numbers are seen as concrete, irrefutable evidence, but we have to take into account a number of factors that could impact such data. Errors in measurement and recording of such data, as well as the influence of other factors outside those in the study, make for ...

EDR8200-4
This is a North Central University essay about synthesizing, critiqueing, and interpreting educational neuroscience literature.
Educational neuroscience is an emerging field of study with foundations in neuroscience, cognitive science, biology, developmental psychology, education, and other related disciplines (Ansari, & Coch, 2006; Meltzoff, Kuhl, Movellan, & Sejnowski, 2009). Although literature for the proposed research is limited, the inquiry will explore the development of adult metacognition from the context of cognitive science and neurosciences. The primary aim is to discover if cognitive processes allow metacognition to increase naturally with age. Findings would inform educational practices as well as bridge the gap between education and neuroscience disciplines. Meltzoff, Kuhl, Movellan, and Sejnowski (2009) noted that the human brain must be adaptable with plasticity to prepare our bodies for quick responses to external and internal issues (Neural Plasticity, p. 7). The essay is written in APA format, includes references, and has been graded by an instructor (A).

Introduction
Autism researchers continue to grapple with activities that best serve the purpose of fostering positive interpersonal relationships for children with autism. Children have benefited from therapy sessions that provide ongoing activities to aid their ability to engage in healthy social interactions. However, less is known about how K–12 schools might implement programs for this group of individuals to provide additional opportunities for growth, or even if and how school programs would be of assistance in the end. There is a gap in understanding the possibilities of implementing such programs in schools to foster the social and mental health of children with autism. The six articles I selected for this assignment present research on different types of therapeutic programs that have been used to promote social interactions in children with autism.
Annotated Bibliography on Autism
Wimpory, D. C., & Nash, S. (1999). Musical interaction therapy – therapeutic play for children with autism. Child Language and Teaching Therapy, 15(1), 17–28. https://doi.org/10.1177/026565909901500103
Wimpory and Nash provided a case study
for implementing music interaction therapy as part of play therapy aimed at cultivating communication skills in infants with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The researchers based their argument on films taken of play-based therapy sessions that introduced music interaction therapy. To assess the success of music play, Wimpory and Nash filmed the follow-up play-based interaction between the parent and the child. The follow-up interactions revealed that 20 months after the introduction of music play, the child developed prolonged playful interaction with both the psychologist and the parent. The follow-up films also revealed that the child initiated spontaneously pretend play during these later sessions. After the introduction of music, the child began to develop appropriate language skills.
Since the publication date for this case study is 1999, the results are dated. Although this study found that music interaction therapy is useful, emerging research in the field has undoubtedly changed in the time since this article was published. Wimpory and Nash wrote this article for a specific audience, including psychologists and researchers working with infants diagnosed with ASD. Their focus means that others beyond these fields may not find the findings applicable to their work.
I am interested in the role of music in therapy to foster social and mental health in children with ASD. Therefore, Wimpory and Nash’s research is useful to me for background information on the implementation of music into play-based therapy in infants with ASD. Wimpory and Nash presented a basis for this t ...

Contamination is real issue in numerous governments subsequently law.docx
Contamination is real issue in numerous governments subsequently laws are advanced to help shield the earth from undesirable waste transfer. Lethal contamination is a noteworthy danger. It influences both the vegetation and water holds. Mercury is a noteworthy contamination material it influences vegetation, air and water. Waste materials that transmit radiation are more hazardous. The impacts of radiation can be felt for more periods than some other poisons. In the ground it consolidates with soil and this can think that some way or another into products. In the event that breathed in it causes distortion of the body and now and again tumor which murders more individuals in America and other western nations (Nemerow & Agardy, 1998).
Dumping of substance waste by businesses crushes the earth by contaminating water as well as makes the dirt barren. Nourishment edit that has been developed from this influenced range is considered unfit for human utilization. The military has been excused from testing their weapons in zone that damage the human right (Cheremisinoff, 2003).
Organization logos that show or publicize that their item are not disregarding any of the natural demonstrations and actually are discovered to be in infringement are in this manner said to be honing encroachment. This falls notice is an infringement in the Lanham demonstration. It expresses that an organization must record or register their logo. This guarantees that if there should arise an occurrence of an infringement by an alternate organization they can petition for a common activity. This right is disregarded when a man is in ownership of merchandise or administrations with a name or mark that is made to befuddle or misdirect as to the cause of the item. These laws additionally keep the advisement and advancement of products in the terms of their land starting point and quality. This miss presentation may hurt the client or business subsequently the holder may confront common activity due to the false proclamation (Pepper et al., 2006).
These demonstrations are the laws that shield nature from undesirable lethal waste transfer any plant or organization wanting to arrange waste must have freedom from the obliged powers. People in general have the privilege to put forth assert in defense there is an infringement of any of this demonstrations by any organization. These demonstrations experience various alterations to adapt to the current difficulties of waste transfer and contamination. The United States of America has through the years seen to it that the commercial ventures to don't share in unlawful exercises that annihilate the earth (Nemerow & Agardy, 1998). Along these lines investigating the past demonstrations helps close on crevices or proviso that commercial ventures can take advantage on purposely or unknowingly.
On account of straightforward green items, the waste materials dumped in the landfill where disregarding the strong waste transfer. This is on.

Consider, hypothetically, a small community called Plainsville, Colo.docx
Consider, hypothetically, a small community called Plainsville, Colorado, which has a critical rail line running through it. On this line, hazardous chemicals are routinely transported en route to a neighboring community (Southtown) where they are crucial for industrial use in manufacturing a certain type of nuclear defect x-ray material that is made nowhere else in the world. The rail line was first laid in the late 1800s and has been patchily maintained over its life.
Given new priorities through Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Grant Programs and state mandates, both the Plainsville community leaders and operators of the railway are concerned with increasing vulnerabilities associated with rail transport because there is evidence of structural decline due to its age and uneven maintenance. Serious damage to, or degradation of, the line in the vicinity of Plainsville might be catastrophic with worst-case consequences including: irreparable destruction of the rail; a train derailment; a chemical spill; the creation of a hazardous environment for people, livestock, and agriculture; disruption of the industrial manufacturing in Southland; and the possible economic crippling of the entire area. Any of these components alone could result in a crisis; yet a combination of these, or if combined in totality, would be a scenario considered unimaginable by Plainsville’s leadership and emergency management personnel.
By way of background, Plainsville has a "strong" mayor, meaning she is elected by the people rather than chosen by a council, etc. Based upon DHS grant dollars that have trickled down through her state and all-hazards homeland security region, Mayor Witley has determined that a commission in the form of a short-term task force should look at the vulnerabilities associated with the rail line. The commission would take the scenario outlined above, consider its many variations, study possible consequences while articulating and researching the problem(s) and receiving testimony from experts, and then make recommendations about courses of action to prevent, mitigate, or respond to any resultant crisis.
The issues at hand for the community include the integrity of the rail line, the prevention of a hazardous spill, the safety of the citizens, and the continuity of the neighboring town’s industry. (More issues may exist, but this gets you started.)
Consider and list at least 10 potential organizations that would either provide a representative to sit on the commission or that would provide information to the commission.
When listing each partner, describe his, her, or its value to the commission and what expectations the mayor (and others) might have as to the expertise, capabilities, resources, or anything else an individual or agency might contribute.
Choose the most relevant entities or individual experts you can, and think about everything from a public safety and emergency management perspective.
Your answer may require research and p.

Consider the Victim
In this assignment, you will identify the victims and the defendants, the rights of victims permitted under state law, the procedures to prosecute an accused, and the possible penalties based on the given scenario.
Centervale police officers, Anne and Justin, respond to a report of domestic dispute. There had been a total of nine calls for service, including two in the past year. On the way, Anne informs Justin that this may be a very volatile situation because this couple is constantly in and out of Domestic Violence Court; even though they separate all the time, they always get back together.
Here's What Happened . . .
The officers arrive and knock on the door, "Hello! Police, can someone please come to the door?" A man yells "Come in!" from inside the house. They decide not to enter the residence under these circumstances to protect their own safety. Anne asks the man to come outside and speak to them.
The door opens. A man, who identifies himself as Mike and a friend of the family, opens the door. He says that Lilly and her husband, Johnny, were just fighting and that there is no problem now. Mike did not appear to be intoxicated but smelled of alcohol. Anne explained that someone has reported a domestic dispute to the police department from this residence and that they were there to check upon the situation. Anne asks Mike if anyone was using any weapons. Mike denied this and said that Lilly was inside the house, ironing clothes. If Anne wanted, she could go and talk to Lilly.
Justin stays with Mike while Anne enters the house and calls for Lilly. Lilly says, "Officer, he hit me on the head with his hand and I hit him with the iron." As this was a mutual assault, Anne stops questioning Lilly and asks Mike what Lilly hit Johnny with. Mike responds, "With the iron."
Anne asks Lilly where Johnny is and she says he was in the dining room. Anne asks Lilly if Johnny has any weapons. Lilly says she did not think he did or at least he did not when he hit her in the head. Anne stays with Mike and Lilly while Justin cautiously enters the house to discover Johnny in fetal position under the dining table.
When Justin first approaches him, Johnny is unresponsive but slowly becomes responsive. Justin notices a large contusion on the left side of Johnny's face when he rolls over to look at Justin. Justin calls for an ambulance, as Johnny was not in a position to answer any questions due to the injury on his head and the possible effects of the shock.
Anne continues to question Mike, "Who struck whom first?" Mike responds, "Johnny hit Lilly like he always does when he drinks Jack Daniels and beer, and then Lilly really got mad at Johnny, hit him with the iron, and went back to ironing. I don't know where Johnny went after that because I was on the couch watching TV and drinking beer." Anne then asks Mike, "How many times did Lilly hit Johnny with the iron?" Mike responds, "Only once that I saw."
Anne further asks, "How many times did.

Consider the impact of the Vietnam War on American culture. In the d.docx
Consider the impact of the Vietnam War on American culture. In the decades prior to the 1980s, two issues beset American culture: civil rights and the Vietnam War. Both were televised directly into living rooms on all three channels. On college campuses throughout the world, but especially on American campuses, antiwar protests were routine. Hippies often were thought to conduct themselves on the premises of antiwar, free sex, and lots of drugs. The music that emerged from this era is still famously current and listened to today. It was an era of convertibles, gas guzzlers, freedom, and endless summers. Then that generation grew into adults––your parents and grandparents. Writing with sensitivity to the nuances of the era, what happened to the dream?

Consider this hypothetical situationDavid Doe is a network .docx
Consider this hypothetical situation:
David Doe is a network administrator for the ABC Company. David is passed over for promotion three times. He is quite vocal in his dissatisfaction with this situation. In fact, he begins to express negative opinions about the organization in general. Eventually, David quits and begins his own consulting business. Six months after David’s departure, it is discovered that a good deal of the ABC Company’s research has suddenly been duplicated by a competitor. Executives at ABC suspect that David Doe has done some consulting work for this competitor and may have passed on sensitive data. However, in the interim since David left, his computer has been formatted and reassigned to another person. ABC has no evidence that David Doe did anything wrong.
What steps might have been taken to detect David’s alleged industrial espionage?
What steps might have been taken to prevent his perpetrating such an offense?

the following scenario:
In the second week of your internship, the CIO approaches you and asks you to research electronic health records (EHRs). She says, “I must give a presentation at a staff meeting next week, and I’d like you to complete the research and create the slides and notes for me. The presentation must focus on EHRs, which our organization is considering implementing. Please be thorough with the speaker notes.”
The CIO adds that you must consider the effect of this technology on health care as well as the privacy and security implications of adopting the EHRs. Describe the HIPAA Privacy and Security Rules as well as the reasons those rules do or do not apply to this type of technology. These constraints are a major consideration for the staff when selecting new technology.

Consider the following argument There are many arguments for the el.docx
Consider the following argument: There are many arguments for the elimination or modification of current U. S. drug laws, but one of the most persuasive involves what negative effects drug laws are having on society in comparison with the effects of the drugs themselves. In the past ten years, most forms of drug use have dropped significantly, especially among teens. Despite this, non-violent drug offenders accounted for 21.1 percent of the federal prison population. First time drug offenders serve, on average, a sentence three months longer than kidnappers, nine months longer than burglars, and thirty-three months longer than sex abusers. In 1992, the average cost of keeping an inmate in either state or federal prison was about $20,000 per prisoner per year. The United States has the highest incarceration rate in the world, with 455 prisoners per 100,000 population. It is maintaining these prisoners at great expense in an environment where they are unlikely to develop a socially constructive attitude. Perhaps it is time that we reconsider our attitudes toward those who choose to use drugs; failure to do so may cost society even more than it already has.
Determine whether or not the argument uses any deceptive statistics. Give your opinion on whether or not the argument has persuaded you. Explain why or why not.
Determine the primary ways in which statistics or authority are used in your current position in developing persuasive arguments, and provide examples of such use.

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.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

- 1. Week 5 Once you have a fairly narrow research question and have conducted a thorough literature review, the next step is to turn your attention to the research design. The research design is simply a plan for how you will conduct your research, as it informs each step of the research process. In addition to research design, you are introduced to the concepts of internal and external validity and generalizability. During the latter half of the week, you focus on a particular instrument of measurement: the pretest and posttest. Capturing information from research study participants both before and after a particular event can yield priceless data. Learning Objectives Students will: Classify types of group research designs Analyze possible study limitations Analyze relative internal and external validity Analyze generalizability Analyze a pretest–posttest in a case study Evaluate research designs to assess program effectiveness Analyze potential lessons learned from attrition

The type of research design depends on the type of research questions asked. For this Discussion, select one of the articles from the reading list and consider several classifications of group research designs. Post your response to the following: Describe which groups are compared in the research. Then, classify the research design as follows: By explaining whether the study is pre-experimental (cross- sectional, one-shot case study, and longitudinal), experimental (control group with pretest and posttest, posttest only, or four- group design), or quasi-experimental (comparing one group to itself at different times or comparing two different groups) By indicating what the researchers report about limitations of the study By explaining concerns you have regarding internal validity and the ability of the study to draw conclusions about causality By explaining any concerns you have about the generalizability of the study (external validity) and what aspect of the research design might limit generalizability

Week 5 Group Research Designs for Social Work Knowledge Development and Practice Evaluation Discussion 2 one page paper Discussion 2: Pretests/Posttests and Attrition This week's video introduces you to the Hernandez family. Juan and Elena Hernandez are mandated to attend parenting classes. As part of the parenting classes, they are required to participate in both a pretest (taken before classes begin) and a posttest (taken after classes end). Pretests and posttests can yield very useful information. They can measure the learning that has or has not taken place as a result of the education being provided. For this Discussion, imagine what kinds of questions would be on a pretest and posttest for this particular study sample (the parents who are taking parenting classes). Post
- 7. your explanation of what you think the social workers wanted to know when they designed the pre/posttest for evaluating the parenting classes. Be sure to address the concept of attrition and whether or not you believe they took that into account. Be sure to explain why. Then, analyze potential lessons learned from attrition. Finally, explain how you might design a study to gather data about the effectiveness of these parenting classes. Use the following questions to focus your thinking: Would you recommend a pre-experimental, experimental, or quasi-experimental design? Would the study involve measurement over time? Would there be a control group? In this group research design you imagine, what or who will be compared? What limitations in terms of generalizability and internal validity can you anticipate based on the research plan you envision? What can you tell the social worker about the issue of client drop out (also called attrition or experimental mortality)? If there is no control group, what type of research design could answer the question: Is this parent training class effective in reducing abusive parenting practices? Please use the resources to support your answer.
