Assignment 1: Journal: Academic Writing Reflection

/in /by

 Although it has only been 6 weeks, hopefully, you have already seen growth and development in your academic writing skills. Throughout your program, you will be exposed to an abundance of academic literature and continue to grow as a scholar. Take a little time to think about your current writing, based on what you have learned and your Instructors feedback over the past 6 weeks. Reflect on existing strengths that you can leverage and areas you can continue to develop. Ensure that you are continuing to do this throughout your academic journey. It is just as important to reflect on the progress you have made, as it is to recognize areas that you can continue to improve.

To prepare:

Review this weeks assigned reading in the course text, Essential Guide to Critical Reading and Writing. Then, review and reflect on the journal entry you wrote in Week 1. Provide a self-assessment in your journal this week on:

  • How has your academic writing changed throughout the course? Provide examples.
  • What areas in your academic program do you think have  improved the most, and why?
  • What areas do you think you need further guidance? What is your strategy to improve the areas identified?

Your journal entry should be approximately 400 to 800 words. Include at least two Walden resources from the Learning Resources this week (that you used in your self-assessment).

Signature Assignment case study

/in /by

In order to write a case study paper, you must carefully address a number of sections in a specific order with specific information contained in each. The guideline below outlines each of those sections.

Section

Information to Include

Introduction (patient and problem)

  • Explain who the patient is (Age, gender, etc.)
  • Explain what the problem is (What were they diagnosed with, or what happened?)
  • Introduce your main argument (What should you as a nurse focus on or do?)

Pathophysiology

  • Explain the disease (What are the symptoms? What causes it?)

History

  • Explain what health problems the patient has (Have they been diagnosed with other diseases?)
  • Detail any and all previous treatments (Have they had any prior surgeries or are they on medication?)

Nursing Physical Assessment

  • List all the patient’s health stats in sentences with specific numbers/levels (Blood pressure, bowel sounds, ambulation, etc.)

Related Treatments

  • Explain what treatments the patient is receiving because of their disease

Nursing Diagnosis & Patient Goal

  • Explain what your nursing diagnosis is (What is the main problem for this patient? What need to be addressed?)
  • Explain what your goal is for helping the patient recover (What do you want to change for the patient?)

 Nursing Interventions

  • Explain how you will accomplish your nursing goals, and support this with citations (Reference the literature)

 Evaluation

  • Explain how effective the nursing intervention was (What happened after your nursing intervention? Did the patient get better?)

 Recommendations

  • Explain what the patient or nurse should do in the future to continue recovery/improvement

Your paper should be 3-4 pages in length and will be graded on how well you complete each of the above sections. You will also be graded on your use of APA Style and on your application of nursing journals into the treatments and interventions. For integrating nursing journals, remember the following: 

  • Make sure to integrate citations into all of your paper
  • Support all claims of what the disease is, why it occurs and how to treat it with references to the literature on this disease
  • Always use citations for information that you learned from a book or article; if you do not cite it, you are telling your reader that YOU discovered that information (how to treat the disease, etc.)

Discussion 2: The Role of the RN/APRN in Policy-Making

/in /by

 

Word cloud generators have become popular tools for meetings and team-building events. Groups or teams are asked to use these applications to input words they feel best describe their team or their role. A “word cloud” is generated by the application that makes prominent the most-used terms, offering an image of the common thinking among participants of that role.

What types of words would you use to build a nursing word cloud? Empathetic, organized, hard-working, or advocate would all certainly apply. Would you add policy-maker to your list? Do you think it would be a very prominent component of the word cloud?

Nursing has become one of the largest professions in the world, and as such, nurses have the potential to influence policy and politics on a global scale. When nurses influence the politics that improve the delivery of healthcare, they are ultimately advocating for their patients. Hence, policy-making has become an increasingly popular term among nurses as they recognize a moral and professional obligation to be engaged in healthcare legislation.

To Prepare:

  • Revisit the Congress.gov website provided in the Resources and consider the role of RNs and APRNs in policy-making.
  • Reflect on potential opportunities that may exist for RNs and APRNs to participate in the policy-making process.

Post an explanation of at least two opportunities that exist for RNs and APRNs to actively participate in policy-making. Explain some of the challenges that these opportunities may present and describe how you might overcome these challenges. Finally, recommend two strategies you might make to better advocate for or communicate the existence of these opportunities to participate in policy-making. Be specific and provide examples.

Social Media Strategy Analysis

/in /by

 

Select a product, line of products, or brand from a company of your choice and research the company’s social media marketing strategies. Carefully examine the social media presence for the product. In an analysis (750-1,000 words), identify how the company utilizes social media to promote the product. Address the following in your analysis:

1.  What is the customer segment for this particular product, line of products, or brand?

2.  Which social media outlets does the company use to reach the customer segment? Discuss elements of their campaign.

3.  Examine the customer segment’s response to the company’s social media marketing (e.g., through evaluating user-generated content related to the campaign, sales data for particular products, etc.). Based on that response, how effective are the company’s social media marketing strategies?

4.  Compare the company’s social media strategies to one of its major competitors. What does the company do well to distinguish itself and product(s)/brand?

5.  Finally, recommend two specific strategies for how the company could more effectively utilize social media to better target its customer segment and increase its competitive advantage in the market.

Support your ideas and findings with descriptions of specific social media campaign examples and consumer and market research.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

Personal Learning Theory

/in /by

  

Personal Learning Theory

One of the most important goals of this course is for you to come away with a personal sense of how these learning and instructional theories can be of use to you in your future “educational” practice, however broadly that may be defined.

I would suggest that, at some point, you ask yourself a series of questions about each of the theories we have studied.

Since the goal is to construct your own unique understanding of the theories, I can’t tell you what those questions would be. I can suggest some possibilities, though, such as 

* What aspects of learning are addressed by this theory? 

* What are the main processes or mechanisms that are proposed to account for learning according to this theory? 

* What, to you, is the single most important “big idea” from this theory? 

* With what other theories is this theory most compatible? 

* Does this theory resonate with your own experiences and beliefs? 

* Does this theory seem to be a good match for the kinds of learners you’re interested in? 

* … for the kinds of learning tasks you’re interested in? 

* … for the kinds of educational settings you’re interested in? 

Well, you get the idea. 

State now your PERSONAL LEARNING THEORY.

What is your understanding of what students should learn, particularly for your discipline? How do students learn best? What educational theories or philosophies support your perspectives?

How do you address diverse learning styles and needs? How do you integrate diverse perspectives into your teaching?

Who/what guides your theory?

Piaget’s theory of cognitive development

Vygotsky’s theory of development,

Your theory should include references to theories and ideas that we have explored and digested this semester.

Support your answers and theory with evidence from the required reading/viewings/resources or your own research.

Use APA formatting.

Do NOT submit this assignment as text. Upload a document in the assignment link. I like to give written feedback in the context of the assignment. Use the grading rubric as a guide and a system to check your work.

Unit III SP Scholarly Activity

/in /by

 

Instructions

In Chapter 9, you read about four criteria that need to be met in order for contact between hostile groups to decrease prejudices. In this assignment, you will reflect on these criteria and develop a program to reduce prejudice. Compose an essay that includes the following components:

  • an explanation of how one’s tendency to perceive others using either the halo effect or the fundamental attribution error could contribute to developing prejudices,
  • a description of the four criteria used to reduce prejudice, and
  • a discussion of the two criteria that you think are most important and why.

You must also access the CSU Online Library to find a peer-reviewed empirical article that provides supporting evidence for at least one of the two criteria you selected as most important above. In the library database PsycARTICLES, put your search criteria in the Advanced Search, and then limit to the Research Methodology of Empirical Study. These specific kinds of studies are also located in peer-reviewed scholarly journals.After providing a brief overview of the article’s main findings, address the following points.

  • Describe a prejudice reduction program you could implement based on the two criteria that you previously selected as most important.
  • Explain why you believe this program will be effective by drawing on research concerning prejudice and discrimination.
  • Discuss how the program would be implemented. Be specific in who would be targeted, where this program would take place, and how you see the program being executed.

Your response should be at least two pages in length. You must use at least two sources as references for your paper, and at least one source must come from the CSU Online Library. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced, and paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations.

Kindly read the whole instructions. Also perform a grammar check and ensure clarity.  
Strategic Logistics Management, Inc. (SLM) is a U.S.-based third-party company whose primary business is to deliver logistics services. Currently, SLM manages several warehouses in Los Angeles and the New York/New Jersey area. SLM provides expertise in air and ocean shipping, customs clearance, forwarding, warehousing, and ground transportation. Over the past five years, SLM has built a successful logistics information system (LIS) that includes personnel, equipment, and technology. The decision-support systems included in the LIS are a transportation management system (TMS) and a warehouse management system (WMS).

SLM employs experienced personnel in the United States to handle a wide range of logistics activities and provide customized logistics solutions and services. The company is considering expanding its global operations to provide the same range of services in Australia, including:

Imports: A network of offices and trade connections to support import consolidation, provide warehousing of goods prior to customs clearance, and manage import documentation for customs formalities.
Door-to-door services: Cargo pickup from supplier locations and transportation of goods directly to the customer, as well as freight bookings with airlines and ocean lines to handle cargo exports from both the United States and Australia.
Exports: Handling of various types of cargo exports by ocean and by air, ensuring the timely movement of goods at the most competitive rates. Complete export documentation is provided.
SLM is working to secure two contracts in Australia that will go into effect next year. The first contract is with Greer Wire Company in Melbourne, Australia, to transport two million pounds of stainless steel brushfire mesh used in protecting homes in brushfire prone areas. This cargo will be shipped to Los Angeles, California. The stainless steel wire mesh is supplied in five-meter rolls with an outside diameter of 500 mm, and each roll weighs 50 kg.

The second contract is with Brooks Brothers, a clothing company located in New York City, for warehousing and transportation of clothing in various sizes of cardboard boxes that easily assemble in one unit load on a 48-inch by 40-inch pallet. The goods will be shipped from New York, New York, to Sydney, Australia. For the purpose of this assignment you can make reasonable assumptions about the weight of the boxes.

SLM will manage a rapid flow of goods to and from Australia. The proposed warehouses in Australia will be located in proximity to two large metropolitan areas, Sydney and Melbourne. In the first year of its operations in Australia, SLM plans to handle an average of 200 20-foot equivalent units (TEUs) of imports and exports between the United States and Australia every month.

You are a Logistics Manager at SLM. As part of the company’s goal to strengthen its competitiveness in the global marketplace, the CEO has asked you to design a logistics plan for the proposed warehouse operations in Australia and transportation of goods between Australia and the United States.

In your report (allowing for reasonable assumptions when necessary),

Select one of the two SLM contracts described above.
Analyze the product’s physical properties, volume, and quantities to determine if the product’s shipment size is small (150 to 500 pounds) or a larger (consolidated) shipment (at least one TEU).
Evaluate at least two modes of transportation that best support the organization’s supply chain for shipping the product from one country to another, door-to-door, in a multimodal shipment. Explain your reasoning.
Identify the type of warehouses that SLM should employ in Australia to ensure a rapid movement of goods. Recommend either public, private, or contract warehousing and explain how your recommendation supports SLM’s supply chain management.
List and describe the necessary commercial, banking, and shipping documents that comply with export and import procedures in the United States. These may include a commercial invoice, certificate of origin, shipper’s export declaration, shipper’s letter of instruction, bill of lading, freight bill, and letter of credit.
Determine the appropriate Incoterms® 2010 rule, depending on the shipment mode and buyers’ and sellers’ responsibilities.
Select a process (Lean, Six Sigma, Just-in-Time, or Kanban) and explain how the process can be implemented to ensure effective and efficient warehouse operations techniques are in place that support the company’s supply chain design.
List a minimum of four additional budget line items in the table below with a rationale to ensure smooth warehouse operations in Australia. Support your rationale by including various logistics activity measures, cost drivers, profit models, and the role of inventory and how they influence SLM’s financial outcomes.
Budget line item

Rationale
