Week 7 Assignment: PowerPoint Presentation

Required Resources
Read/review the following resources for this activity:

  • Textbook: Review chapter(s) applicable to your presentation
  • Lesson
  • Headset microphone (If your computer does not already have a built-in microphone, then you can find this item under the Additional Items section in the bookstore).
  • Link (website): Narrated PowerPoint Tutorial (Make sure to review this tutorial before you begin recording.)
  • Minimum of 4 scholarly sources (from Weeks 5 & 6)

E-Book: McLean Scott, (2018). Exploring Interpersonal Communication (2nd ed.) Boston, MA: Flatworld

Instructions
The following are the best practices for creating your speech presentation: (Write the speech to add notes)

  • Title Slide: Include the title, audience (who you prepared the presentation for school or institution), the presenter who prepared and narrated, and the date.
  • Attention-Getter: Give the audience a reason to pay attention. Make them want to listen to your speech.
  • Thesis: Clearly state the purpose of your presentation
    • (On this slide, establish the tone of the presentation and include any questions you think your audience might have about your topic – questions you will answer during your presentation).
  • Body of the Presentation (multiple slides): Include the information you found during your research and organize it in a visually pleasing manner.
    • Use some type of division like levels of headers or titles.
    • Use words and phrases to clarify key points.
    • Provide researched evidence for each point.
    • Cite your evidence, quotes, and statistics within your presentation using
    • in-text citations ( ) on the slides as well as full reference citations on the
    • last slide.
    • Include images to add visual appeal to the slides.
  • Summary and Conclusion: Summarizing is similar to paraphrasing but presents the gist of the material in fewer words than the original. An effective summary identifies the main ideas and major support points from the body of your outline or presentation. Minor details are left out. Summarize the benefits of the ideas and how they affect the thesis statement of the outline and main objective of the presentation. End with a final strong statement regarding the intent of the presentation.
  • References: Use the APA citation format. The illustrations should be included with your resources. APA tutorials are available in the Chamberlain University library. Keep in mind the following:
    • At least 4 authoritative, outside scholarly sources are required from Week 6 outline. (Anonymous authors or web pages are not acceptable.)
    • Appropriate citations within the presentation are required on the last slide. Just copy and paste this from the last page of your outline – the References page. References should be in APA format.
    • Each resource should be entirely double spaced.
    • All entries must use hanging indents – the first line is flush left, and all the rest are indented.

Additional Hints

  • Use a minimum of 5 visual aids to further clarify and support the written part of your presentation. You could use example graphs, diagrams, photographs, flowcharts, maps, drawings, pictograms, tables, and Gantt charts. If a slide appears boring, then strongly consider adding a visual. It is the blend of text and images that make the slides engaging for the audience.
  • Animation and video clips should not be used for this speech. YouTube is not allowed.
  • Do not type out text onto the slide and then read it during your presentation. Remember, you are the teacher, so teach, don’t read!
  • Click on the following link to view a presentation of sample slides. Click on the arrows to scroll through the slide show (See attached below)

Presentation Requirements (APA format)

  • Time Length: 5-7 minutes
  • Slide Length: minimum of 8 slides
  • Slide Content
    • Title slide
    • Attention-Getter
    • Thesis

Choose one social issue or social problem

This assignment will allow you to explore one contemporary social issue or problem as expressed in music. Here is how to proceed:

1) Choose one social issue or social problem (i.e. substance abuse, environmental concerns, suicide, war, teenage pregnancy, hate crimes, etc.).

2) Find at least 3 songs with lyrics that address your chosen social issue/problem. You will need to cite these songs using proper APA formatting.

3) Analyze the songs for similarities and differences in how they address the social issue/problem. You may:

–          look for themes within and among the songs (i.e.  songs about war that talk about ‘ending war’)

–          consider the year the songs were copyrighted

–          consider the genre the song fits in

–          what type of vocabulary, words, grammar, euphemisms, vernacular is used for the lyrics?

4) Find one source that addresses music and/or your social problem (i.e. the sources are providing similar analysis or commentary on how your social problem is addressed through music or on the seriousness of a particular issue or problem).  This may be a popular source (i.e. a magazine article or website), but Wikipedia is not acceptable.

5) Find one peer-reviewed article that discusses your social issue or problem and how it is portrayed in the media (ideally this would be on how it is portrayed in music, but it can be a discussion about how the issue is portrayed in the news, on TV, radio, internet, movies, etc.)

6) Write up your findings and post them

Note: Information about the singer/band should be a very minimal part of this analysis; the lyrics are the heart of the analysis.

Give an example in the real world where you might do a t-test

Give an example in the real world where you might do a t-test. Explain what your sample and population averages might be.

ASSIGNMENT 3 Term Research Project

 

 

Due MARCH 25

 

ASSIGNMENT 3 – Term Research Project  – 20%

Soft copy  (EMAIL)

 

Your assignment is to write a research project that includes a review of the current understanding of the topic, a clearly stated hypothesis, a description of the experimental or observational methods you would use to test your hypothesis, and a discussion of how your research will contribute to the field of this Course. Before you begin writing your proposal, you must conduct considerable research to determine what studies have been done and what questions remain unanswered. This library research should continue as you write to help you dig deeper into the topic, formulate your ideas, and devise your methods. Be prepared to make room for this back and forth between research and writing as you consider and reconsider your project ideas and begin drafting your proposal. For more details see instructions below.

 

 

 

Title of the Paper

(Individual Research Project Writing Instructions)

 

Author’s Name

 

 

 

 

                                  

 

Place, date

 

  1. Organisation
  2. Abstract

The objective of this very short statement is to tell the reader something about the purpose of the course work and its content. You should explain what you intend to do and why. Then you should tell the reader what you did and what you would recommend.

The Abstract should be written at the end, when you have finished your work and the structure is complete. It may duplicate some statements included in the Introduction and/or Conclusion. The length of the Abstract should be no more than 50 words.

 

  1. Introduction

The Introduction provides reader with an overview of the paper:

  • introduce the topic, relevance/reasons for the topic to be researched;
  • identify your primary aims and objectives;
  • outline the key areas to be covered/define research questions;
  • describe methodologies used while conducting research (in one paragraph).

 

The background section, if needed should be short and focused on the topic, real statistical data can be included, if needed.

 

 

  1. Title 1

This chapter gives you an opportunity to show the reader that you have learned to analyze and to synthesize the views of others in relation to your paper.

You will summarize contents of books, articles, laws and/or regulations that have direct relevance to your course work. You should compare and contrast ideas, theories, legislation and/or views relevant to your proposed topic.

(Possibilities: present situation, practice in your country, regulations and practice, experiences from other countries, trends, and examples in different fields of border guard work…)

At the end of this chapter, identify the principal research questions/objectives to be addressed. Explain what is under researched and why and how particular research questions were selected. This will form the basis of your subsequent writing.

(You may categorize collected information/data by titles and sub-titles, if necessary)

 

  1. Findings and Discussion

You might divide this chapter into two – Analysis of Findings and Discussion.

This is the most important part of your work. Your findings may be derived from the analyses of literature, legislation, statistical data, interviews or any viable combination of instruments used for collection of data and information (from your country and/or other countries, agencies, systems, etc.)

Discuss your findings and link important points of this chapter back to principle ideas in previous chapters with the evidence obtained in your own research.

End this chapter with a brief summary of your findings. This gives you the entry in the concluding chapter.

 

  1. Conclusions and Recommendations

Again you can divide this chapter into two parts.

The Conclusions and Recommendations chapter gives you the opportunity to evaluate the effectiveness of your research work and to offer recommendations, if desired.

Conclusions can be rather short, because the main body of the analysis and synthesis of material will be taking place in the chapter of Findings and Discussion.

In the Conclusions be sure that all of the questions raised in the Introduction have been addressed. Weigh the final results of your research against the aims and objectives of the final report. Deviations from expected, for example, can be important and interesting.

Recommendations are important. Ideas for further examinations or for implementations in the working areas, strategies advocated for better management of the issue are particularly useful.

  1. References

This part gives you the opportunity to show to the reader what sources were used in your work.

All books, articles, sources of data and web sites used must be listed. Additional sources consulted should be also placed in the literature.

Entries should be placed in alphabetical order. Web sites should be grouped together separately at the end of the chapter.

 

  1. Layout of the course work

For the front page follow the example of this document!

Use Arial fonts with 1.5 line spacing and justify the text. The text should be broken into paragraphs for readability and there should be a free line between each paragraph.

The texts should also be divided into section and sub-section, with section titles (font 12 bold) and sub-title (font 11 bold).

Lists and bullet points should only be used sparingly.

When using the idea of someone else (but not the exact words), there should be a footnote. When copying parts of someone else’s text (use sparingly), the text should be between “inverted commas” and there should be a footnote. Make sure to keep track of sources and references!  

 

Plagiarism is not tolerated!

 

 

In the table below you can find some instructions for citing.

  1. Organisation
  2. Abstract

The objective of this very short statement is to tell the reader something about the purpose of the course work and its content. You should explain what you intend to do and why. Then you should tell the reader what you did and what you would recommend.

The Abstract should be written at the end, when you have finished your work and the structure is complete. It may duplicate some statements included in the Introduction and/or Conclusion. The length of the Abstract should be no more than 50 words.

 

  1. Introduction

The Introduction provides reader with an overview of the paper:

  • introduce the topic, relevance/reasons for the topic to be researched;
  • identify your primary aims and objectives;
  • outline the key areas to be covered/define research questions;
  • describe methodologies used while conducting research (in one paragraph).

 

The background section, if needed should be short and focused on the topic, real statistical data can be included, if needed.

 

 

  1. Title 1

This chapter gives you an opportunity to show the reader that you have learned to analyze and to synthesize the views of others in relation to your paper.

You will summarize contents of books, articles, laws and/or regulations that have direct relevance to your course work. You should compare and contrast ideas, theories, legislation and/or views relevant to your proposed topic.

(Possibilities: present situation, practice in your country, regulations and practice, experiences from other countries, trends, and examples in different fields of border guard work…)

At the end of this chapter, identify the principal research questions/objectives to be addressed. Explain what is under researched and why and how particular research questions were selected. This will form the basis of your subsequent writing.

(You may categorize collected information/data by titles and sub-titles, if necessary)

 

  1. Findings and Discussion

You might divide this chapter into two – Analysis of Findings and Discussion.

This is the most important part of your work. Your findings may be derived from the analyses of literature, legislation, statistical data, interviews or any viable combination of instruments used for collection of data and information (from your country and/or other countries, agencies, systems, etc.)

Discuss your findings and link important points of this chapter back to principle ideas in previous chapters with the evidence obtained in your own research.

End this chapter with a brief summary of your findings. This gives you the entry in the concluding chapter.

 

  1. Conclusions and Recommendations

Again you can divide this chapter into two parts.

The Conclusions and Recommendations chapter gives you the opportunity to evaluate the effectiveness of your research work and to offer recommendations, if desired.

Conclusions can be rather short, because the main body of the analysis and synthesis of material will be taking place in the chapter of Findings and Discussion.

In the Conclusions be sure that all of the questions raised in the Introduction have been addressed. Weigh the final results of your research against the aims and objectives of the final report. Deviations from expected, for example, can be important and interesting.

Recommendations are important. Ideas for further examinations or for implementations in the working areas, strategies advocated for better management of the issue are particularly useful.

  1. References

This part gives you the opportunity to show to the reader what sources were used in your work.

All books, articles, sources of data and web sites used must be listed. Additional sources consulted should be also placed in the literature.

Entries should be placed in alphabetical order. Web sites should be grouped together separately at the end of the chapter.

 

  1. Layout of the course work

For the front page follow the example of this document!

Use Arial fonts with 1.5 line spacing and justify the text. The text should be broken into paragraphs for readability and there should be a free line between each paragraph.

The texts should also be divided into section and sub-section, with section titles (font 12 bold) and sub-title (font 11 bold).

Lists and bullet points should only be used sparingly.

When using the idea of someone else (but not the exact words), there should be a footnote. When copying parts of someone else’s text (use sparingly), the text should be between “inverted commas” and there should be a footnote. Make sure to keep track of sources and references!  

 

Plagiarism is not tolerated!

The Ethics Behind Assessment

The Lab Assignment

Write a detailed one-page narrative (not a formal paper) explaining the health assessment information required for a diagnosis of your selected patient (include the scenario number). Explain how you would respond to the scenario as an advanced practice nurse using evidence-based practice guidelines and applying ethical considerations. Justify your response using at least three different references from current evidence-based literature.

The Ethics Behind Assessment

Consider the following scenarios:

· You are a nurse at a large county hospital. One of your patients is leaning toward selecting a certain radical treatment for cancer, to which the family is in opposition. The family is concerned about making the correct decision and asks for your advice.

· The state of Oregon has passed a “Death with Dignity” act that allows for euthanasia in certain situations. One of your patients suffering from terminal cancer is thinking of moving there to take advantage of this law and asks your opinion.

Throughout this course, you have explored a wide range of health assessments and abnormal examination findings. Although you have predominantly focused on the procedural aspects of health assessment, this week, you will focus on ethical considerations that should be taken into account when advising patients or their families.

This week, you will consider how evidence-based practice guidelines and ethical considerations factor into health assessments. You will also evaluate health assessment concepts related to sports physicals and well-child and well-woman examinations.

Learning Objectives

Students will:

· Apply evidence-based practice guidelines to make an informed healthcare decision

· Apply ethical considerations to a health assessment response

· Apply concepts, theories, and principles relating to sports physicals and well-child and well-woman examinations

· Identify  concepts, theories, and principles related to advanced health assessment

· Chapter 24, “Sports Participation Evaluation”
In this chapter, the authors describe the process of a sports participation evaluation. The chapter also states the most common conditions encountered in a sports participation evaluation.

· Chapter 25, “Putting It All Together”
In this chapter, the authors tie together the concepts introduced in previous chapters. In particular, the chapter has a strong emphasis on the patient-caregiver relationship.

A Look at the Marburg Fever Outbreaks

A Look at the Marburg Fever Outbreaks

This week we will examine: Marburg Fever in Africa.

 

MARBURG VIRUS

The largest and deadliest outbreak of Marburg hemorrhagic fever on record occurred in 2005. The Ministry of Health (MOH) in Angola reported a total of 374 cases, including 329 deaths reported countrywide. The Angolan Government, WHO and other partners,

established a surveillance system for identification of suspected cases and follow up of their contacts. Mobile teams were sent to the field to investigate rumors, obtain clinical specimens for laboratory tests, hospitalize suspected patients and monitor their contacts

B. For the Marburg fever case, you will discuss the major obstacles and difficulties that public health officials and health care workers had in controlling the outbreak of Marburg fever and the solutions they found to these difficulties. Your response must also include the following:

1. What is Marburg hemorrhagic fever?
2. How is Marburg hemorrhagic fever prevented?
3. What needs to be done to address the threat of Marburg hemorrhagic fever?

Must be at least 250 words and supported by at least two references
