INTRODUCTION
Marketing managers for global organizations are often asked to evaluate the feasibility of new products and services and predict their profitability for the organization. For this task, you will select a business that would like to develop new products and services in order to attain a competitive advantage in the global market. You will first consider the products and services the company currently offers and recommend new products and services that have the most potential for profitability based on your evaluation. You will then identify the target market and consider how you would reach that market using traditional mass media and social media for the launch and beyond.

For example, a natural foods company may need to begin offering an online ordering system to remain competitive. If you discover a market exists for a new natural food product that is desired in other countries but not readily available there, this might be a good product to recommend adding, but you should first determine whether it is feasible.

Select a business from one of the industries listed below:

agriculture

banking

hospitality

healthcare

retail

transportation

technology

Note: Please choose a business that can be adapted to a global market. Any information that would be considered confidential, proprietary, or personal in nature should not be included in the actual task submission to WGU. Do not include the actual names of people, suppliers, the organization(s), or other identifiable information. Fictional names should be used. Also, organization-specific data, including financial information, should not be included but should be addressed in a general fashion as appropriate. Work performed for a client or an employer is their property and should not be used without written permission.

REQUIREMENTS
Your submission must be your original work. No more than a combined total of 30% of the submission and no more than a 10% match to any one individual source can be directly quoted or closely paraphrased from sources, even if cited correctly. The originality report that is provided when you submit your task can be used as a guide.

Your report shall be at least three full pages of text, double-spaced, with 12-point text. Use MLA format, please.

Does it produce episodes on the same subject, or does it vary from week to week? How often is a new episode created? Season (if relevant)? What made you choose this podcast?
How did you listen to the podcast episode? Did you listen to it while doing other activities, or did you give it your undivided attention? Did it make you want to listen to more podcasts? Or do you already listen to them? Which ones interest you, aside from this one?

Was there anything in the visual style you found innovative or exciting?
Consider the film from one of the theories we discuss in this class: formalism, psychoanalysis, ideology, representational analysis, feminism, queer theory, the gaze, or phenomenology. Briefly engage with the film/television show from one of these approaches. Did the podcast episode also delve into any of these approaches?

Discussion: MEAL Plan
In the Discussions over the past 5 weeks, youve built an argument. Step-by-step, youve identified evidence to support a main idea statement and youve shown how that evidence proves the point. Now, its time to fine tune. Where can your language be more precise? Where can it be clearer? Where do you need to provide or double-check a citation that youre not quite sure about?

Additionally, to remember this process and the skills youve built, think about what resources and strategies have helped you along the way.

Picot question in nursing Create a 6- to 7-slide PowerPoint presentation

January 1, 2021 Leave a comment APA (edition "APA 6"), Health Care and Life Sciences

To Prepare:

Review the Resources and identify a clinical issue of interest that can form the basis of a clinical inquiry.
Develop a PICO(T) question to address the clinical issue of interest you identified in Module 2 for the Assignment. This PICOT question will remain the same for the entire course.
Use the key words from the PICO(T) question you developed and search at least four different databases in the Walden Library. Identify at least four relevant systematic reviews or other filtered high-level evidence, which includes meta-analyses, critically-appraised topics (evidence syntheses), critically-appraised individual articles (article synopses). The evidence will not necessarily address all the elements of your PICO(T) question, so select the most important concepts to search and find the best evidence available.
Reflect on the process of creating a PICO(T) question and searching for peer-reviewed research.
The Assignment (Evidence-Based Project)

Part 2: Advanced Levels of Clinical Inquiry and Systematic Reviews

Create a 6- to 7-slide PowerPoint presentation in which you do the following:

Identify and briefly describe your chosen clinical issue of interest.
Describe how you developed a PICO(T) question focused on your chosen clinical issue of interest.
Identify the four research databases that you used to conduct your search for the peer-reviewed articles you selected.
Provide APA citations of the four relevant peer-reviewed articles at the systematic-reviews level related to your research question. If there are no systematic review level articles or meta-analysis on your topic, then use the highest level of evidence peer reviewed article.
Describe the levels of evidence in each of the four peer-reviewed articles you selected, including an explanation of the strengths of using systematic reviews for clinical research. Be specific and provide examples.

Identify and briefly describe your chosen clinical issue of interest.

What is your topic? Why is it important to nursing practice?

Describe how you developed a PICO(T) question focused on your chosen clinical issue of interest.

What is the PICOT question? How was it developed? What information from the literature supports the need to answer the question? Why is this the best question to address the issue you’ve identified?

Identify the four research databases that you used to conduct your search for the peer-reviewed articles you selected.

Summarize each article. Synthesize the information. What are common themes? What are some major differences in their findings?

Provide APA citations of the four peer-reviewed articles you selected.

Be sure to use proper in text citations and cite correctly on the reference page.

Describe the levels of evidence in each of the four peer-reviewed articles you selected, including an explanation of the strengths of using systematic reviews for clinical research.

In your summaries, include this information. Where did the study fall in the hierarchy of evidence? What were the identified strengths and limitations of the study? What are the strengths of using systematic reviews?

Be specific and provide examples.

This is important! Be sure to elaborate, add examples and details to support your assertions. Pretend the reader (me) is unfamiliar with your topic. The examples are what helps the reader understand what you are trying to say.
