Community Project – develop a power point presentation based on one (1) focus area from Healthy People 2020

Community Project – develop a power point presentation based on one (1) focus area from Healthy People 2020 – due Saturday, August 23, by 2359. It is fine to do this anytime before the deadline and submit to the dropbox. It will be considered late after this date and time. You will receive zero points if it is late unless you have made prior arrangements with the instructor.

Community Project Power Point Instructions
1. After examining the document Healthy People 2020 (the web site is in Readings), choose one focus area that is of interest to you.
2. Next choose a population group that you will work with in the chosen focus area.
3. Write an example of each of the three different levels of health prevention activity for your chosen area.
4. Give an explanation how you would work with the community population that you have chosen.
5. Choose one of your prevention levels to expand on and make your slides fit the one focus area and one level of health prevention activity you choose.
6. Include a reference page at the end to reference the materials you investigated and cited in your presentation.

This is not a paper, but a power point presentation. You should make between 10 and 15 slides. Explain in detail how you would carry out your program. The reference page will not be part of the power point slides, but put into a word document and submitted along with your power point slides in the dropbox.

For example: I choose heart disease as my focus area. An example of a primary health prevention activity would be encouraging a group of elderly clients to eat a heart healthy diet. An example of a secondary health prevention activity would be advising your client to have a lipid panel performed to screen for cholesterol concerns. An example of a tertiary health prevention activity would be assisting your client in finding a post-cardiac arrest support group.

Expanding upon my example, I would refer my clients with computer access to the American Heart Association website for further information. I would further expand on the education of the heart healthy diet by discussing foods, etc. I would do my teaching to the population of elderly clients, i.e. the elderly clients would be in the local YMCA Golden Trotters program, and we would speak to them in a group setting and be available for individual consultation. I would further explain the educational materials and style of education used, i.e. pamphlets, ppt, etc.

Again, do a power point presentation and download it along with the reference page into the dropbox.

I really want to see that you have thought out your educational/prevention activities.

The Rubric is below:

46-50 points (92-100%) – Exemplary Work – will be given for: Scholarly writing/speech are utilized throughout the presentation with outside resources utilized and cited correctly. Community presentation is complete with all six (6) components above addressed. Power Point Presentation is clear, concise, and professional.

42-45 points (83-91%) – Good Work – will be given for: Scholarly writing/speech is utilized mostly throughout the presentation with some outside resources utilized. Community presentation where the majority of the components above are addressed. Power Point Presentation is clear and concise.

38-41 points (75-82%) – Fair Work – will be given for: Writing/speech is clear but not necessarily scholarly (no outside resources utilized). Community presentation is incomplete but some components are mentioned. Power Point Presentation is unclear.

37 points and below (74% and below) – Poor Work – will be given for: Community Presentation is disorganized and few if any of the components assigned were utilized. No outside resources utilized. Presentation is unprofessional.

You will receive zero points for no submission. And you will receive zero points for late submission unless you have made previous arrangements with the instructor. You will lose 1 point for each grammatical, punctuation or spelling error.

Introduction to biology

Now that you have learned the basics of energy conversion, enzymatic activity, and two important processes used by living organisms, you will focus on cellular respiration for this Case Assignment.

After viewing the videos on Cellular Respiration , link- https://www.sumanasinc.com/webcontent/animations/content/cellularrespiration.html
answer the following questions in a 2 page paper:

What enzymes are named in the videos (provide at least 5)?
What do these enzymes do, generally speaking? Would the reaction occur if they were not present? Why or why not?
Define these terms: substrate, enzyme, ATP, and describe why they are important in cellular respiration.
What are the byproducts of cellular respiration? Where do these byproducts end up (in the organism AND in the environment)?
Assignment Expectations
The Case Assignment is a written description of a problem or situation. Most cases are a “snapshot” of a particular situation within a complex environment.

The purpose of the Case Assignments in this course is to place the student in a position that will require research, synthesis of information, and critical thought. The student will be asked to distinguish pertinent facts from peripheral facts, identify central alternatives among several issues competing for attention, and formulate strategies and recommendations. This method provides an opportunity to sharpen problem-solving skills and to improve the ability to think and reason rigorously.

Your essay is considered a scholarly work. You will be provided with many scholarly references to begin each assignment. For any additional research you are required to do to complete your assignment, please use scholarly references such as a peer reviewed journal article or a government sponsored or university sponsored website. As you read through your sources, take notes from your sources and then write your paper in your own words, describing what you have learned from your research. Direct quotes should be limited and must be designated by quotation marks. Paraphrased ideas must give credit to the original author, for example (Murray, 2014). Direct copying from “homework help” websites will not receive credit.

When you write your essay, please organize your paper to include an introduction (overview of the assignment), body with subtitles (reflecting the requirements of the assignment), and a summary (develop connections between the required topics).

Discussion Questions

Please briefly answer discussion questions

1.Open Source operating systems have become mainstream in recent years, for example Linux. What are the benefits and disadvantages of open source operating systems?

2.How should one evaluate the technical tradeoffs in Operating Systems capabilities — for example, the kernel, the task scheduling, the ability to handle clustering, pre-emptive task management and so on?

3.Many new hardware configurations are being deployed for high performance servers such as those with multiple xeon processors, Opteron processors, and higher end processors found on mainframes. How does one determine the cost-benefit of upgrading to new hardware configurations in terms on operating systems capabilities?

ENGL101 FORUM 3

Post your thesis statement for Essay 2 here as a one- sentence thesis statement. Please bold it and identify it, so that we can all tell what it is.

Make sure you are writing one sentence only, and that you are not using a question. For example, “Should children wear uniforms in public schools?” is not a thesis sentence. To be a thesis sentence, the sentence must take a stand and be a declarative sentence.

After you post your thesis statement, discuss how you arrived at that one sentence. What process of thought led to that sentence? Did you conduct research on your topic before coming up with your thesis statement? Have you taken a stand in your thesis statement? Do you think that when you do more research on your topic, your stand might change? Did you start with one thesis and evolve into another?

(It is expected, in academic writing, that you may need to change your thesis statement as you work on your essay. You may believe one thing, only to find through research that your initial beliefs must be adjusted. Or, you may have to change your topic somewhat due to available research.)

After you have discussed your thesis statement, discuss how you will outline Essay 2. Provide at least three supporting ideas or directions, and show how they will support your thesis. Why did you select the three ideas you selected, and how do they develop your essay? How will you find research to support your three ideas? Remember, in the Essay 2 assignment, all of your research must be from one of these three online databases in the APUS online library—EBSCO, ProQuest, and LexisNexis. No open web sources are allowed for this assignment.

After you have made your initial post, Part 1 and Part 2, respond to at least two classmates with ideas for how their thesis statement might be refocused, improved, or clarified. Remember, be constructive, and feel free to ask questions about directions for more research, like, “Did you consider whether uniforms lead to better scholastic performance—will you back that up with statistics?”

Assignment Three: Final Paper

This final paper will be the culmination of what we have accomplished in our first and second writing assignments. Now that we have identified and clarified the nature of our chosen social problem, and examined two key organizations that address this social problem, we will now give a more in depth discussion about the scope of the social problem, a major theoretical idea that can be applied to the social problem, and our own analysis of how this social problem might be better solved. A crucial part of this paper will be in identifying one of the major theoretical perspectives we have covered this session. The three major ones include the functionalist, conflict, and symbolic interaction approaches. However, as our texts point out, there are other theoretical viewpoints we may also adopt if we choose. The key will be in thoroughly reading and understanding these theoretical viewpoints, and finding the most effective one for understanding our chosen social problem of study.

Instructions:

Complete a 5-7 page final paper that analyzes the future impact of this social problem you have mentioned in the second writing assignment. In this assignment, you will cover:

1. The scope of this social problem over the last 30-50 years. (note: you will need to use historical data to articulate the scope of this problem.)

2. An analysis of one major theoretical perspective from our textbook that is useful in understanding this social problem.

3. Finally, your own analysis of how you think addressing the social problem could be improved. In this analysis, please mention what you think should be done to solve this social problem. Your paper should utilize sound critical thought and it should provide appropriate APA in-text citations and APA full-reference citations.

4. Use at least four concepts from our text (not used in our previous assignments) in your analysis.

Don’t forget to include proper APA-style citation and reference.

The assignment should include a title page, abstract and/or table of contents, body of paper, and also works cited page. This assignment should follow the APA format. In addition to our text, you will significantly incorporate research from at least 5 meaningful up-to-date resources, two of which must be from reputable, peer-reviewed academic journals. Please check the Course Materials for more information on this homework assignment (worth 20% of total grade).

Due by 11:55p ET the Sunday of Week 8 – submit using link in Sakai.

The paper should be typed, double-spaced, 1” margins, arial or times new roman 11 pt font

Etiology and Treatment

In M3 Assignment 2 RA 1, you reviewed a case study, made primary and secondary diagnoses, and identified differential diagnoses for each primary and secondary diagnosis.

In this assignment, you should modify your initial diagnoses according to the instructor’s feedback in M3 Assignment 2 RA 1. Then, you will discuss the etiology and treatment of your primary and secondary diagnoses for the case study using a minimum of five peer-reviewed sources on etiology and a minimum of five peer-reviewed sources on treatment. Your paper should have separate sections for:

Primary and secondary diagnoses
The reasons for selecting the primary and secondary diagnoses
Differential diagnoses
The reasons for selecting the differential diagnoses
A justification for why your actual diagnoses are a better fit than your differential diagnoses
A consideration of other conditions that may be a focus of clinical attention

Your citations and references should be in APA style, and your paper should be 8–10 pages in length.

Because differential diagnoses are not actual diagnoses, none of your differential diagnoses should be discussed in your paper in any way. Just focus on your primary and secondary diagnoses.
