You are now conducting the third family session with the Robertsons. The father has been ordered by the court to participate. During this session, you give each of the family members the task of writing down what they think is unhealthy about how they interact with each other. After they have finished writing their statements, they read them aloud. Marie states, “Well, when my son asks me to help him with his homework, I tell him ‘in just a minute,’ and I never get around to it. I have even fallen asleep and forgotten that he even asked for my help. When Dan is talking to me, I simply ignore him.” Peter states, “When I don’t get help from my mom with my homework, I just quit trying, and I see my mom ignore my father so I ignore him too.” Dan states, “I yell at my wife and kid all the time. I feel so angry most of the time.”

 

In 400-600 words, answer the following:

 

  • Describe the model of treatment that you think best applies to the Robertson family. 
  • Describe how this model of treatment will work better for the Robertsons than the other models would.

HINT: See Chapters 10-14 of the text to help understand some of the legal issues covered in this assignment.

Jim and Laura Buyer visit the local car dealership because they are interested in buying a new car. The car they currently have is aging and is starting to have mechanical problems. Jim and Laura would share the new car, and use it to go back and forth to work and school. Before going to the dealership, Jim and Laura decide that they can only afford $400.00 a month in car payments.

Once at the car dealership, Jim and Laura meet Stan Salesman. Stan shows them several vehicles and Jim and Laura test-drive several of the cars. Jim and Laura particularly like the blue 4-door sedan.  Therefore, they agree to give Stan Salesman a $100.00 deposit to hold the car for a day. Stan Salesman does not give them the receipt but guarantees that the $100.00 is refundable. No documents were signed. 

The next day, Stan Salesman calls Jim and Laura to ask them when they would like to take delivery of the car. Jim and Laura, on the way home from the dealership, decided that they were not going to buy the car because they did not want to spend that money each month. Therefore, Jim and Laura tell Stan salesman that they have decided not to buy the car and request their $100.00 deposit back.

Stan insists that the $100.00 was a deposit on the car and was meant to be part of the contract to buy the car. Stan is very persistent and insistent that Jim and Laura have contracted to buy the car; therefore, the $100.00 will be applied to the purchase price of the car. Jim and Laura are shocked and angry as not only do they not want to spend the money, but now feel as though they are being duped by Stan Salesman. 

Jim and Laura have an appointment to see a lawyer in a few days, but know you are a student taking a business law class and come to you for advice. They are very frazzled, and understandably upset that they may have just purchased a car. Since you have been taking business law, you have read and understand the elements of a contract and the defenses to a contract. Therefore, although you are not a lawyer, you provide some basic advice from what you’ve learned in your business law class.

In three to five (3-5) pages, advise Jim and Laura based on the above facts as presented, the material provided in the text, and material covered in the lecture. In your paper, be sure to address the following:

  1. Define the elements of a legal contract using examples from the scenario where applicable.
  2. Decide whether or not there was a contract for the purchase of the automobile. 
  3. Identify the facts from the scenario which support your decision on whether or not a contract exists for the purchase of the automobile. 
  4. Use at least two (2) quality academic resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and other Websites do not qualify as quality academic resources.
  5. Format your assignment according to the following formatting requirements:
      • Typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides.
      • Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page is not included in the required page length.
      • Include a reference page. Citations and references must follow APA format. The reference page is not included in the required page length.

Grading for this assignment will be based on answer quality, logic / organization of the paper, and language and writing skills, using the following rubric.

 
 
 

Discussion 1: What is Happiness?

 

How happiness and well-being are defined varies around the globe. For instance, in some cultures, happiness is closely linked to economic well-being and in other cultures, happiness is linked to being closer to home. As an additional example, in some societies, happiness is connected to individual advancement, whereas in other societies one’s personal happiness is linked to the well-being of the group.

 

For this Discussion, you will explore the influences of happiness and how they vary according to culture.

 

To Prepare:

 

  • Review this week’s Learning Resources and choose two influences on happiness or well-being that vary across cultures.

 

By Day 3

 

Post and explain the two influences on happiness you selected and explain why they vary according to culture.

Read the Patient Safety and Quality Improvement Act of 2005 (Links), and review the information on the Measures (Links to an external site.) web page of The Joint Commission website. Pick one of the core measures from the list on the right-hand side of this web page.For this assignment, create a PowerPoint presentation in which you explain how a hospital would typically put policies and procedures into place to ensure that it is following your selected core measure.

 

 

 

In your presentation,

 

 

 

· Describe the core measure you chose.

 

· Analyze how your hospital will follow the requirements in the chosen core measure.

 

· Examine the penalties that will occur if this policy/procedure is not followed.

 

 

 

You are basically creating the policy/procedure and presenting it on the PowerPoint as if you were presenting to an audience.

 

The Core Measures PowerPoint presentation GUIDELINES

 

 

 

·  Must be five to seven slides (excluding the title slide and reference slides) and be formatted APA style 

 

 

 

·  Must use speakers notes as follows:

 

à Speaker notes are the typed notes that appear below the slide that complement the presentation slides. Whereas the slides will have short bulleted items, the speaker notes will be more detailed. They are essentially what the presenter would say during the presentation to explain each of the bulleted points on the slide. Therefore, it is important that the speaker notes are concise and detailed when explaining the bullet points.

 

 

 

· It is recommended that PowerPoint Slides contain no more than five bullet points and should not contain more than seven to 10 words each. Do not type paragraphs or long sentences on the slide. The information that explains each bullet point is conveyed via speaker notes

 

· Your presentation must utilize at least two scholarly sources from the last five to seven years, in addition to Bustillos, D., & Vellek, S. (2019). Health care ethics and medical law. Retrieved from https://content.ashford.edu, that contain research regarding how your policy and/or procedure would be put into place in a hospital setting. “find two more sources not including the one I just gave you”

Have you ever filled out a form and come upon a question asking for the amount of your annual household income? How did you respond to this question? If you have never encountered this question, consider how you might respond to such a personal inquiry.

 

For this Discussion, think about sensitive information you might need to gather through a survey. Consider how you would develop survey questions appropriate for eliciting responses from potentially reluctant participants. Think about which data collection methods might be most successful in collecting valid data.

 

With these thoughts in mind:

 

Post a description of a research topic that would involve gathering sensitive information. Construct three survey questions that you might use to gather this sensitive information. Identify the study population you have chosen, and explain your rationale for how the survey questions are constructed. Explain potential challenges to accurate and reliable data collection of sensitive information from this population, including the strengths and limitations of different data collection methods (e.g., telephone interviews or web-based surveys).

A new position has been approved for creation; this position will be eligible for full benefits and may even need to be sent to foreign countries.

You have been given the opportunity to create a detailed job description for your job, a former job, or a job you would like to move into.

Based on what you know about a job analysis, employment laws, and safe working environments, include the following categories:

  1. Job overview
  2. Responsibilities and duties
  3. Qualifications
  4. Explain how you determined the duties and qualifications for the job and which laws were considered when creating the job description.

This assignment should be 2-3 pages and accurately reflect an actual job description in the workplace today.

NOTE: This assignment will be used as a basis for the remaining assignments in the course. Make sure you take this into consideration when doing the work for this assignment.

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

  • Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
  • Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.

 

I’m thinking of having myself as the lead on OpsLearn (OpsLearn is where I work at). That would include system administration and setup.  You would also be a point of contact for the Training SMEs (subject matter experts) we hope to develop on all of the teams.  You would coach them in doing what you’ve been doing with the PBS new hires.  Another part would be testing courses and activities in OpsLearn.  So when we need to publish modules to be used in an LMS, you will test them in OpsLearn to make sure they run and score correctly.

Then, here’s a whole bunch instructional design and development stuff that’s on our radar that everyone on the team will work on:

·  We will need to update the Contact Center modules we have been working on and finalize for delivery.  (I’m not sure if you will be involved in the rollout of this first deliverable.)

·  Then we are going to start doing some reading and discussions as a team to learn about instructional design for game development for our next version of the Contact Center training (or anything smaller we can start on before that!). 

·  I know you have some ideas for interactions to develop in Captivate, like an interactive form where they have to click to select certain parts of a form. 

·  Many of the teams are looking online versions of mock processing exercises.  We can create those with Captivate. 

·  We need to take ownership of the onboarding training program, so we will need to look at that as a curriculum and review that from an instructional design perspective

·  I will need someone training as a graphics artist, but we still all need a certain proficiency with graphics and graphics applications such as Photoshop and SnagIt. 

That should give you plenty of ideas!  One thing I don’t see in the assignment description is what I typically see on resumes as “Skills.”  These usually refer to things like Captivate, Instructional Design, Captivate, Photoshop, SnagIt, HTML coding, etc.  Maybe these combined with proficiencies (like “Expert level Captivate,” “10 years’ Instructional Design experience,” etc. make up the qualifications…?

 
 
 

Write a paper (2,000-2,250 words) that addresses the role of the Christian worldview in the application of research ethics in the field of psychology. Address the following in your paper:

 

  1. Is Christianity specifically incompatible with Ph.D.      research in the field of psychology? Why or why not?
  2. Is the Christian worldview compatible with research      ethics in the field of psychology? Why or why not?
  3. To what extent should the Christian worldview influence      the type of psychology research conducted and the ethics of that research?      Why?
  4. To what extent do you perceive that the Christian      worldview will influence the topic and ethics of your intended      dissertation research? Why? Is this different than you expected? Why or      why not? (Benchmarks Relationships, Spirit, and Self-Discovery C8.1:      Appraise the evolution of one’s personal self and worldview.)

As a DNP-prepared nurse, you will likely encounter many different methods of disseminating the findings and implications of an evidence-based project. Each method has unique benefits. As discussed in this course, oral presentations can be an effective medium for delivering the findings of DNP projects.

 

 

 

For this Discussion, consider what makes an oral presentation effective. How might presentation approaches vary for an academic presentation versus a practice-based presentation?

 

 

 

To prepare:

 

  • Review      various forms of disseminating the findings of an evidence-based project,      as well as strategies for delivering effective presentations in this      week’s Learning Resources.
  • If      applicable, reflect on your experiences practicing with colleagues in a      small group and presenting in other professional or academic situations.      Conduct additional research as necessary to enhance your awareness of what      makes a presentation most effective.
  • Consider      how the needs or dispositions of the intended audience may inform your      presentation.

 

By tomorrow Wednesday 7/17, write a minimum of 550-word essay in APA format with at least three scholarly references that include the level one headers below:

 

 

 

Post a cohesive response that addresses the following:

 

 

 

1) Share three or more insights related to presentation approaches. 

 

 

 

2) Explain how this information may be used to promote the delivery of an effective DNP Project presentation. Be sure to note any considerations related to the intended audience that are important.
