CHOOSING YOUR PROJECT (word limit 2000 words)

 

1. Area of Study–It’s best to do something that is related to your degree program. It can also be related to your current work or profession. The reasoning behind this is that we want you to focus on Project Management and how it will relate to your area of interest.
2. Project proposal does NOT mean a running a business

 

Consider hosting an event. There are thousands of charities out there that undertake some sort of clever fundraising initiatives. Google away.

 

Background

 

You work for a large organisation that has recently introduced PRINCE2 (name of the book) as a required method for managing projects. Several policies, templates and other resources have not yet been developed, which means that you might be required in this.

 

Your employer wants to improve their profile as being more socially responsible and has decided to allocate up to $50,000, spent over the next 12 months to achieve this goal.

 

To receive the funding, the project must meet the following criteria:

 

• It is to benefit a community in the Northern Territory, Australia or a target audience in the Northern Territory.
• It is to be a unique endeavour
• It is to be completed within one (1) year
• It is to be limited toa budget between $25,000 and $50,000
• It can create income; however, proceeds are to be donated the cause
• It should relate to your area of study (degree program). (Bachelor of software engineering)
• It is not to include additional sponsorship, grants, donations beyond the $50,000. If the organisation’s staff are required to volunteer in the project during normal work hours the opportunity costs to the organisation’s normal work must be included as an expense.

Hello, I have a three part assignment for you today. This assignment must be done by Tuesday August 20, 2019 no later than 9pm. By the way I need this assignment to be PLAGIARISM FREE & a spell check when completed. Make sure you read all  the instructions CAREFULLY. Now without further ado the instructions for the assignment are below:

 

 

 

Recall your chosen firm and industry you have been using throughout the course. For this assignment, you will identify the top three major safety and health issues in your firm, and write a policy on each, consistent with Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) standards. There is a minimum requirement of 300 words for each of the three job policies.

 

Each of the five domains of OSHA must be considered when writing these three policies:

 

1. Hazard communication: How will you notify people of potentially dangerous or unhealthy work conditions?
2. Blood-borne pathogens: How will you protect employees from blood-borne pathogens such as AIDS?
3. Personal protective equipment (PPE): What equipment or tools will your employees in this job require to work safely?
4. Cumulative trauma disorders (CTDs): How will you prevent CTDs that come from repetitive movement (e.g., carpel tunnel syndrome)?
5. Work assignments: How will you handle potentially dangerous work assignments, especially to protect unborn babies?

 

NOTE: This is a three-part assignment. All three of the policies (minimum of 300 words each) you write should go on one document. This one document is what will be uploaded to Blackboard.

 

Any sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations in APA format.

 

By the way I will be including several attachments down below that will be crucial for this assignment. Starting with my company name and chosen firm (or industry) papers that I’ve been using throughout this course. 3 to 5 attachments are tips of how the assignment should be done & formatted. Lastly, the sixth attachment is a Study Guide or overview of the current lesson. Please refer to tips (images 3 to 5) to make you have the format down and make sure you’ve answered the 5 questions above for each policy (or policies).  Everything will be on one document!

This is an individual assignment. Using your group’s assigned case study, create a PICO question using the PICO template.*  Using the PICO format leads to effective searches and best available evidence pertaining to interventions’ effectiveness. Conduct a literature search for best available evidence supporting best practices. The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Library of Systematic Reviews is one of several databases you may search. Refer to Search Resources: Weblinks to Resources for Search and Appraisal* for search assistance and instruction. The documentExample of a Search Table* shows one way to organize your search process. Appraise the evidence using a critical appraisal tool (e.g., AGREE II,* CASP,* JBI*).

 

These are components that must completed as part of your final QI Report of Project. Together, these EBP tasks directly relate to course objective “integrate best current evidence with clinical expertise and patient/family preferences and values for delivery of optimal health care.”  

 

*item found in QI Project Resources

 

You should include the following:

 

• What is your PICO question? Post completed PICO template and question
• Summarize your search strategy
• Indicate the tool you selected to use for critical appraisal and rationale for selection (Note: You will likely identify and appraise several items to determine the “best available evidence” to include in final report. In this discussion post, you are required to post only one appraised item)
• Post completed appraisal/checklist; this should include appraisal criteria and how you applied the appraisal process to your selected resource
• Include any questions you have and/or challenges encountered

 

Follow the directions for each activity. Answer the essay questions completely using thoughtful ideas, the course text, and outside reference sources, where applicable. Proofread answers for potential writing errors. 

 

Part A. Metatherian Mammals

 

  

 

Part A Question1) What are metatherian mammals? What are distinguishing characteristics of metatherian mammals? 

 

Extinct mammals, they are very few living. Metatherians, which comprise marsupials and their closest fossil relatives, were one of the most dominant clades of mammals during the Cretaceous and are the most diverse clade of living mammals after Placentalia. The only living metatherian mammals are the marsupials. There were some extinct metatherians that were not marsupials, such as the Sparassodonts, but as these have gone extinct, a metatherian is now just a synonym for a marsupial Metatherians belong to a subgroup of the northern tribosphenic mammal clade or Boreosphenida. They differ from all other mammals in certain morphologies like their dental formula, which includes about five upper and four lower incisors, a canine, three premolars, and four molar. In metatherians, marsupium is present which is required for carrying the infants

 

Part A Question2) Describe the biogeography of metatherian mammals. 

 

Part A Question3) Using the following websites choose one extant (currently living) metatherian (marsupial) mammal species. Conduct research about the species. Discuss and analyze the species’ anatomy, ecology, and life history. Write a species account of at least 300 words correctly citing the reference source(s) you used. Scientific names are comprised of the genus (capitalized) followed by the species name (not capitalized) and they are italicized. For example, Ornithorhynchus anatinus.

Imagine you work at a company and it is time for an employee named Jim’s annual review. While he was a model employee the first nine (9) months of the year, recently Jim has been coming in late. It has not been just a few minutes each day, either. It is starting to cause problems in the production line. In this assignment, write a summary of how you would approach your conversation with Jim. How will you address his recent performance issues while still praising him for his previous nine (9) months of good work? Your goal is to balance the negative and positive feedback so that Jim will leave motivated to do his best. This assignment should focus on your goals for the conversation, and which employee relations approaches you will use to address the situation .

 

 

 

Write a five to seven (5-7) paragraph paper in which you:

 

• Explain how you will address Jim’s recent performance issues.
• Suggest both constructive and positive feedback designed so that Jim will leave motivated to do his best.
• • Include at least 1 reference to support your paper.

As an HR Manager part of your job is to analyze the staffing levels within the organization. You have to hire to fill one position within the organization. You can choose the organizational position you currently work or a future position. For this assignment, create a new position, and write a description of the needs it fills in the organization, the job description, and the compensation and benefits package.

 

Write a five to seven (5-7) paragraph paper in which you:

 

• Explain three or four job components in the job description and specifications for the job.
• Explain what will be included in the compensation and benefits package related to the job.
  • Include at least 1 reference to support your paper.

Quality of Service” Please respond to the following:
 

 

• Your design team presents a project to you, in which most inputs seem to have about a 1.5-second delay before a response. The lead designer has decided this response is acceptable. Analyze response-time models and decide if the response time in the presented project is acceptable. Explain why it is or is not. 
• Evaluate the importance quality of service has to designers. Choose two areas discussed in the textbook you would focus your attention to ensure quality of service for a team of designers that you were managing. Justify your choices.
