Research healthcare issues that have been identified in your local community (you can pick any healthcare issue). Develop a power point presentation offline. Structure a health policy analysis presentation that addresses the following topics particular to your health problem.
-Problem Statement
-Background
-Landscape
-Options
-Recommendations
More than one evidence-based strategy is discussed regarding health policy analysis. Accurately and specifically addresses each component.
Step 1: Watch Unforgivable Blackness: The Rise and Fall of Jack Johnson (a link is available in this module). I would encourage you to watch the entire film. At a minimum, watch sections 1-6 and 21-40.
https://hs1.farmingdale.edu:2208/watch/unforgivable-blackness-the-rise-and-fall-of-jack-johnson
( Video link above )
Step 2: Use one secondary source to research a related topic on the linkages between gender, race, and sexuality during this period in American history. This research can focus explicitly on the life of Jack Johnson or explore a related topic from the film that you find interesting.
IN ADDITION : Questions to address might include (but are not limited to) the following (you do not need to answer all of these questions take one as a starting point for your essay):
From watching the film, what do you find most striking about the connections between gender, sexuality and race in this period of American history? Why?
What has your research added to your understanding of the linkages between gender, sexuality, and race in American history?
About how human beings are responsible for climate change and the destruction of the planet even in a humanitarian way, must include methodology, ontology, epistemology and qualitive/quantitive research
The proposal should: i) identify a research question; ii) very briefly summarize the context of the research; iii) outline the objectives of the study; and iv) describe in detail the methodology to be used, including a discussion of choice of research methods and why they are appropriate. The proposal may be based on a qualitative, quantitative, or mixed method strategy. Successful completion this assessment will reflect the appropriation of concepts and methods taught within the module and used to good effect in setting out a clear question and proposal for proposed research.

The article I found was similar to the book and it also showed us myths and then the facts about renewable energy. It showed 21 different myths about renewable energy and I wont be able to talk about them all, seeing as that would take me forever to write, but I will mention a few. The 1st one was Offshore wind power isnt a viable renewable energy option. The fact is, for about 20 years it has existed and has become an important part of Europes energy. Europes total installed offshore wind capacity was about 2 gigawatts in 2009. To put that into perspective, that is about the size of a very large nuclear power plant. There are an additional 100 gigawatts of proposed or developing projects currently going on. Some of the United States best wind resources lie off the coasts too, so they are large population centers where the electricity is needed. Another myth is, Wind turbines are bad for the environment because they kill so many birds and bats. The fact is wind turbines kill a minimal amount of birds. A 2007 National Academy of Sciences report, estimated wind energy is responsible for less than 0.003% birth deaths. There is no evidence that bird casualties, caused by wind turbines result in measurable changes to bird populations in the United States. The last myth I found was, Offshore wind farms wont be able to withstand a hurricane. Turbines are designed to shut off when the winds get too high, usually about 50-60mph. They feather the blades, which means, to increase their angle of pitch by turning the blades to be parallel to the airflow. It is so they dont catch wind and apply breaks. Wind farms located in hurricane prone areas can be designed to withstand winds in upwards of 150 mph (67.056 m/sec) or a Category 4 hurricane. Overall, I thought this article was really interesting. There are so many myths out there about renewable energy. There were some on this list that I was wrong about, so if you get a chance, check out the article.

As with anything, there are widely varying belief systems depending on who you speak to, and sustainable energy is no exception. Unfortunately a lot of the misconceptions come from the fact that people don’t recognize the difference between sustainable and renewable energy. For a lot of people, renewable energy and sustainable energy are foreign ideas, so there are many misconceptions surrounding them. A survey from Oklahoma State University found that there are four common “myths” held by the general public.
One of these myths is that “Expanding the emphasis on renewable energy is the route to energy independence of the United States”. Unfortunately the idea of energy independence for the United States is not truly possible. This article (https://foreignpolicy.com/2019/09/18/the-myth-of-u-s-energy-independence-has-gone-up-in-smoke/) does an excellent job of laying out why this is not truly possible. One important point that is referenced multiple times is that Trump “trumpeted that America’s new oil abundance cushions the disruption and boosts strategic stocks”. His reasoning being that the creation of more pipelines would protect the US from oil price shocks. Unfortunately, this is false. Oil is priced in a global market, which means the prices in the United States would move as the market moves, even if they are not importing at all. Over the past few years, Congress has made the decision to sell off approximately half of the US’s oil reserves to fund their priorities based on the thought that America is energy independent. This could result in a massive, temporary oil supply disruption, which is what these reserves were in place to help with. An important note is that it doesn’t matter as much how much oil we import/export, as it does how much fuel we are using. This is what keeps the United States so vulnerable to price changes in oil.
As it currently stands, renewable energy sources cannot replace the use of oil throughout the transportation sector. This poses the biggest issue because this is where the majority of our oil usage is currently. There is no good solution. Biofuel is extremely expensive, and wind and solar aren’t viable options. Until we can overcome these issues, renewable energy cannot takeover oil in the transportation sector, and the United States will not be independent.

Learning Strategy: This discussion is set up to provide you with a learning experience that uses a constructivist learning strategy. This is based on a theory that adults learn well when they can incorporate their own experiences and interpretations with sources of knowledge (textbook concepts and the experiences of others) into NEW knowledge. New meanings are constructed through social interactions! It is not a passive way to learn, but rather a very active, intentional approach to building new understandings.
To get the most out of this discussion, it is important that you actively engage by doing the following:
Part A (Week Four): Describe the concepts within the required resources that are meaningful to you. This is more than just retelling what is in the chapter; it is explaining why that information is important to you and what it means to you personally or professionally.
Part B (Week Five): Seek out others’ perspectives on the meaning of concepts in the required resources. Consider the diversity in experiences and interpretations. This requires dialogue – asking and answering questions that bring out new ideas and applications.
Part B (Week Five): Construct new knowledge. You will know you have succeeded in constructive learning if you end up with more or clearer knowledge and understanding after the discussion than what you had when you started.
