[Solved] Represent Voices Within Communities

 

In this assignment, you will explore two sides of an issue and discuss both sides as well as your own perspective. You will generate a podcast for this assignment utilizing Kaltura.

First, take a look at the listing below of some current differences in thinking. Pick one of these topics that you feel especially drawn to (perhaps because one of the viewpoints fits with your own perspective, causes a negative reaction in you, or because the topic is something you have not considered before).

Each of these topics has a write-up attached that would represent a way of thinking on this topic. These write-ups are fictional; however, they are based on ideas and perspectives that represent voices within communities.  

After you select a topic and read the two attached differing viewpoints, you will then generate a reflection on your own positioning using Kaltura. 

In your Kaltura reflection, be sure to address the following:

  1. Define both “sides” of the issue you are presenting (attempt to explain it from both perspectives).
  2. Discuss your own personal reflections on this issue and if that perspective shifted as a result of considering the sources.
  3. Consider your internal reactions to working with people in therapy settings who might hold viewpoints on this topic that widely differ from your own perspective.
  4. Identity some things you might do as a therapist (tools) to help guide you through some of the discomforts you may feel in working with extremist viewpoints that differ from your own. 

Note: Make sure you integrate readings from this week into your discussion, you may also look outside the readings for this week to supplement your ideas.

Length: a 3 to 5-minute Podcast presentation

References: Include a minimum of 2 resources.

[Solved] Backyard Plant Sales Sheena

Instructions
Sheena’s Backyard Plant Sales

Sheena grows three types of plants: desert rose, plumeria, and oleander. She sells her plants in her backyard and has hired your company to create a system for her to use to manage her business.

  • For the desert roses and plumerias, she sells the seedlings at $5.00 each. She sells the small plants for $10.00 each, the medium-sized plants for $12.50 each, and the large-sized plants for $20.00 each.
  • The desert roses come in six colors: red, pink, pale pink, purple, white, and yellow.
  • The plumerias come in three colors: deep red, pink, and yellow.

  • The oleanders come in five colors: red, orange, pink, white, and yellow.

Whenever Sheena has a sale, she uses a spreadsheet to record the customer’s first and last name, address, phone number, email address, and items sold. If they are a repeat customer, Sheena will give them a 5% discount on their order. Customers pay Sheena in cash or through Venmo.The spreadsheet is getting a bit tedious to keep up with and allows a lot of room for error. Below are Sheena’s requirements for the new system that your company will create for her business.

  • It will be able to generate invoices to print or email.
    • Invoices should include the invoice number, the customer’s name, the customer’s address, the date of the sale, the items sold (including color, quantity, and price), the sale subtotal, whether any discounts were applied to the sale, the total tax per sale, and the subtotal.

[Solved] Extended Conflict Resolution Programs

 

Topic: Resolving conflict and dealing with difficult people in the workplace

Research Project Instructions:

IMPORTANT!! Read all information provided in this section before beginning your final project. Your final project accounts for 25% of your grade. As such, this project is critical to your final grade!

Submit your work as an MS PowerPoint ATTACHMENT. No other file format can be accepted (i.e., no .pdf, read-only formats, etc.).

The final project requires you to develop a PowerPoint slide presentation for use as a training tool with line managers and supervisors on how to resolve conflict, as well as deal with difficult people, in the workplace. Many organizations hold such training programs at least annually with line management as a refresher in order to ensure that employee conflicts and aggressive behavior are dealt with expeditiously, assertively, Instructions: and proactively, in order to prevent such behavior from taking place at work. As such, your presentation should briefly outline (i.e., no more than 2-3 slides) the negative issues associated with allowing conflict in the workplace to go unchecked, and focus the majority of your presentation (i.e., 8-10 slides) on the positive measures, programs, and processes that organizations can/do adopt to mitigate conflict and negative employee behavior in the workplace.

Many organizations have extended conflict resolution programs beyond Human Resource Development (HRD) programs and processes by changing human resource management (HRM) policies and programs to meet the special needs of the new workforce. A growing number of organizations are holding managers formally accountable for resolving employee concerns and/or grievance internally, within their departments. For example, incorporating such goals and objectives into their performance evaluation process. As the HRD manager for your organization, what new training programs and processes would you propose to senior management to develop effective training and conflict resolutions methods that will ultimately lead to a climate in which all employees can thrive within the organization and contribute to its success?

Submission Instructions: Submit your work as an MS PowerPoint (.ppt) presentation. The body of your presentation should include at least 10-12 presentation slides, in addition to a title slide, introduction slide(s), and references at the end of your presentation for a total of no more than 15 slides. PowerPoint presentations longer than 15 slides will not be read after the 15th slide. As such, please ensure that all assignment questions are answered within the first 15 slides, as your grade will be based on the first 15 slides received.

Your grade will be based on your ability to follow assignment instructions, research conducted, the effectiveness of the training proposed, critical thinking and analysis, and APA format.

Please support your ideas, arguments, and opinions with independent research, include at least three (3) supporting references or sources (do NOT use encyclopedias, Wikipedia, unknown, undated, or anonymous sources, such as brief articles from websites), include a reference section (i.e., 1-2 slides), and cite all sources properly in the text of each slide, in accordance with the 6th edition of the APA manual, Chapters 6 & 7.

Helpful Tips:

Your grade will be based upon:

  • research conducted
  • effectiveness of the training presentation as a communication tool,
  • critical thought and analysis, and
  • APA format.

Students are encouraged to use the Notes section of the slides in formulating the presentation as a way to minimize lengthy narrative on the slides. This approach will allow the use of bullet points on the slides but demonstrate the depth and scope of the research conducted in the Notes section.
I encourage you to go online to Purdue OWL, or Excelsior OWL, which have writing labs for students. Look up PowerPoint presentations in APA format in the search box. These websites will have helpful tips on best practices.

[Solved] Increased Sexual Harassment Cases

 

Discussions: Since the 1960’s we have seen a steady stream of more women entering the workplace. The 2000’s brought more women to senior leadership positions. This shift in the workforce has created challenges and opportunities for all. Increased sexual harassment cases, balancing life and family, and equal wages and job opportunities are just a few of the challenges. Organizations, and federal and state governments, are finding ways to address these issues.

Based on your readings this week (see Content – Week 8 – Reading and Resources), what should organizations do to ensure that the disparity between compensation and job opportunities among men and women in the workplace is mitigated and ultimately eliminated? Be creative in your answer!

You may find appropriate articles at the end of each chapter, and/or identify articles through the APUS online Library. Finally, be sure that all discussions are answered in full, in order to ensure the best possible grade based on the work submitted.

[Solved] Least One State Regulation

 

Nursing is a very highly regulated profession. There are over 100 boards of nursing and national nursing associations throughout the United States and its territories. Their existence helps regulate, inform, and promote the nursing profession. With such numbers, it can be difficult to distinguish between BONs and nursing associations, and overwhelming to consider various benefits and options offered by each.

Both boards of nursing and national nursing associations have significant impacts on the nurse practitioner profession and scope of practice. Understanding these differences helps lend credence to your expertise as a professional. In this Assignment, you will practice the application of such expertise by communicating a comparison of boards of nursing and professional nurse associations. You will also share an analysis of your state board of nursing.
