comparing-two-powerful-monarchs-that-reigned-between-the-16th-and-18th-centuries

by

In this activity, you will be comparing two powerful monarchs that reigned between the 16th and 18th centuries. You will then create a magazine cover and write a feature article about their leadership.

Step 1: Choose Two Monarchs

You will compare an absolute monarch with a constitutional monarch. Select one from each list:

Absolute Monarchs

  • Philip II (Spain)
  • Louis XIV (France)
  • Louis XVI (France)
  • Ivan the Terrible (Russia)
  • Peter the Great (Russia)
  • Catherine the Great (Russia)
  • Joseph II (Holy Roman Empire)
  • Frederick the Great (Holy Roman Empire)

Constitutional Monarchs

  • Charles I (England)
  • Charles II (England)
  • James I (England)
  • James II (England)
  • William and Mary (England)

Step 2: Design your Magazine Cover

Now you are ready to design your magazine cover. Use the magazine template to design your magazine cover and write your article.

Your magazine cover must:

  • include one main title for the magazine issue that communicates the general theme or topic of the issue
  • include one image of each of your two monarchs with a one sentence caption for each
  • include one article title or ‘headline’ that compares the two monarchs you chose

Magazine Template:

Put your magazine issue’s main title here!
Insert the image of your Absolute Monarch here! Insert the image of your Constitutional Monarch here!
Add the caption for your absolute monarch below the image. Add the caption for your constitutional monarch below the image.

Write your article title or headline here.

Use these guiding questions to help you write your article text. Replace the questions with your article.

Paragraph One – Who is this person and why is he or she described as an absolute monarch? How did the person rise to power? What did the person accomplish as ruler? What challenges did he or she face as ruler? How did the person influence the nation?

Paragraph Two – Who is this person and why is he or she described as a constitutional monarch? How did the person rise to power? What did the person accomplish as ruler? What challenges did he or she face as ruler? How did the person influence the nation?

Paragraph Three – How were these rulers similar? How did they differ? Did one have more power than the other? How did the type of monarch each was affect their nation?

Step 3: Write your Article

Use the article headline you created in Step 2 as your title.

Your article must:

  • include the article or headline title
  • be at least three paragraphs in length
  • contain one paragraph for each monarch to describe his or her accomplishments, challenges, rise to power, and influence
  • contain one paragraph to compare the power and rule of the absolute monarch with the constitutional monarch
  • cite sources outside the course, if used

Write a 175- to 265-word response to the following:

  • What career opportunities in lifespan management are in your community? How will you achieve your career goal of working in the lifespan management industry? Provide details.

Read and respond to the two discussion posts below. Be constructive and professional with your thoughts, feedback, or suggestions.

The front range of Colorado if full of diversity in employment when it comes to lifespan management, I however, live in the mountains, rural, about and hour an fifteen away and will have to move or travel (which isn’t out of the question). The communities within the front range are largely populated by veterans of the many Army and Air Force bases between Colorado Springs and Denver. There are also large populations of elderly folks, individuals wounded both mentally and physically, and the physically and mentally disabled. With the unemployment rate being the lowest it has been in the last decade, the employment pool is limited (United States Department of Labor, 2019). However, there are many lifespan services provided specifically to U.S. veteran. At our local community college there is an opening for a Project Director of Disabled Student Support Services which is devoted to providing qualifying people, with emphasis on veterans, an encouraging achievable environment with specialized services to help those in need to meet their goals (Google, 2019). In Denver, there is a case manager position open for people with developmental disabilities available. The responsibilities of this postilion entail planning, coordinating, and monitoring services available to those in need. The work to ensure that the patient’s health, wellness, and safety are obtained and that all services provided meet all federal, state, and local regulations and due process requirements (Google, 2019). In reading about the available positions in my area, my employment horizons are broadened.

A goal of mine is to be my own boss and open an in-home health care company that offers basic in-home assistance to specialized nursing, palliative, and hospice care in our rural community. There is an abundance of grey area in this process, and even more planning. While I am working to accomplish this goal, I maintain open employment options. Elderly care has always been my driving force in school, however, reading about the job duties of a case work for those with developmental disabilities sparked my attention. I have worked briefly with developmentally disabled children as a Kids Adventure Night teacher at church. I also have a friend with a child with Downs Syndrome. These life experiences mixed with new knowledge has me turning my attention. To achieve this position, I have to have a Bachelor’s degree, but they are will to train the right person. I feel like if I keep chasing a dream to help others in one way or another I am achieving my goal of giving back.

2. There are several lifespan management opportunities in my community. I have worked with the community service board, I was staffed in the intellectual and developmental disability department based in group homes. All the residents have a Medicaid waiver that provided them in home supports. Some of the supports were 24/7 and others were for a few hours. We assisted the residents with activities of daily living, community integration and participation, safety skills support and training, and other person centered support needs. Some of the residents were institutionalized and had no lifespan management and now that they have a team to assist with their life they have control over their lifespan management. Lifespan management is important for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities because it provides them with independence, social setting, and the ability to live with someone who is relatable. The care provided were catered to the residents needs and they were a part of everything involving their lives. The goals that were set to help with their lifespan management involved them, and the type of environment they lived also involved them. When I first started working for community service boards I didn’t know that the U.S. Supreme court ruled that people with special needs who receive government benefits must be housed in the least restrictive possible setting. Group homes are great options for people with special needs who don’t require more advanced care but who cannot live independently. In many cases, group homes also provide a social setting for the residents that they would not otherwise have if they lived with parents or on their own. to achieve my career goal of working in the lifespan management industry is getting more education. I have work in this field for over ten years so experience is also important. There are always more to learn and completing school will give me the opportunity to advance in my career.

alternate dispute resolution

by

Choose a business dispute involving the tort of negligence affecting a small or start-up business. This may be a dispute you are familiar with, or it may be a dispute described in a newspaper or other source. PLEASE USE THIS CASE IN THE LINK.

MARMET HEALTH CARE VS. BROWN

https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/11pdf/11-391.pdf

select a movie or book in which the main character suffers from a psychological disorder or is merely trying to cope with the everyday stress of life 1

by

Throughout the semester, you have learned about several theories and practices of psychology across many different areas. This assignment will give you an opportunity to apply some of those major concepts, theoretical perspectives, and empirical findings. In completing this assignment, you will hone your critical thinking skills, recognizing and applying psychological principles, and communicating your understanding of individual, community, and organizational life experiences to a general audience.

Task:

For this assignment, you will write a paper based on a film or book that you will explore through the application of psychological theory and research.

Step 1:

Select a film or book of interest. For example, you might select a movie or book in which the main character suffers from a psychological disorder or is merely trying to cope with the everyday stress of life. Be creative. For instance, choose “Snow White” and talk about the Evil Queen’s Narcissistic Personality Disorder or choose “Cat in The Hat” and talk about the Cat’s “Borderline Personality Disorder” or something like that (please do not use either of those suggestions specifically). Do not choose something obvious, but be creative and thoughtful.

Step 2:

Review your course resources to identify 3 specific psychological theories or principles that can be applied to the analysis of the book or film. You might discuss defense mechanisms or refer to developmental stages in the person’s life that might have been important, or consider the effects of abuse, alcoholism and addiction, etc. You can approach the subject matter from different perspectives—psychoanalytical, biological, behavioral, cognitive, and/or sociocultural. You can discuss the role emotion, memory, or motivation plays in the character’s development, or the importance of the environment, and influences such as racism and sexism.

Step 3:

Search the library database using relevant keywords for your topic for at least one peer-reviewed article to support your ideas. Psychology cuts across many disciplines so feel free to explore journals in other areas such as business, education, health, and criminal justice.

Tip: When conducting your search in the library include a theory or principle plus a topic (i.e. Body Dysmorphic Disorder and Adolescents). Use alternative key words to improve your chances of finding relevant articles and create a specific search statement to help narrow your results.” The example might be something like “(“Body Dysmorphic Disorder” OR BDD) AND (adolescen* OR teen*)”

Step 4:

Review writing resources, write an outline, write a thesis statement, write an introduction, integrate information via summarizing, paraphrasing, or, as necessary, directly quoting sources, all with proper attribution. (See Assignment Folder for a Sample Paper)

Step 5:

Write a 1,200 to 1,500 word paper (about 5 double-spaced pages), not including title and reference page which should be written in APA style, and submit it to your assignment folder.

Tip: Begin with a brief synopsis discussing the character or issues that arise in the book or film, Next, integrate the theories or principles you have chosen and discuss how they are related. From your synopsis, you can then formulate a thesis statement and craft an outline that will be the basis of your paper. Once a draft has been written, you may want to contact the EWC for feedback.

Step 6:

Submit final draft to your assignment folder.

Criteria:

Checklist of expectations

In order to be successful on this paper, be sure that you address all of the following:

Building a better mousetrap won’t guarantee success, and this assignment drives this message home.
  • Through this assignment you will learn that failure is a valuable learning tool and that many great ideas are born from the experience of failure are well on the road to success. Through this assignment you will be able to showcase the knowledge you gained from this weeks reading and lecture on the first element of the marketing mix, “Product”, and if you choose you can use the product life cycle to assist you in explaining how the business/product failed.

The requirements below must be met for your paper to be accepted and graded:

  • Write between 500 – 750 words (approximately 2 – 3 pages) using Microsoft Word.
  • Attempt APA style, see example below.

picot-question-and-literature-research

by

The first step of the evidence-based practice process is to evaluate a nursing practice environment to identify a nursing problem in the clinical area. When a nursing problem is discovered, the nurse researcher develops a clinical guiding question to address that nursing practice problem.

For this assignment, you will create a clinical guiding question know as a PICOT question. The PICOT question must be relevant to a nursing practice problem. To support your PICOT question, identify six supporting peer-revised research articles, as indicated below. The PICOT question and six peer-reviewed research articles you choose will be utilized for subsequent assignments.

Use the “Literature Evaluation Table” to complete this assignment.

  1. Select a nursing practice problem of interest to use as the focus of your research. Start with the patient population and identify a clinical problem or issue that arises from the patient population. In 200–250 words, provide a summary of the clinical issue.
  2. Following the PICOT format, write a PICOT question in your selected nursing practice problem area of interest. The PICOT question should be applicable to your proposed capstone project (the project students must complete during their final course in the RN-BSN program of study).
  3. The PICOT question will provide a framework for your capstone project.
  4. Conduct a literature search to locate six research articles focused on your selected nursing practice problem of interest. This literature search should include three quantitative and three qualitative peer-reviewed research articles to support your nursing practice problem.

Note: To assist in your search, remove the words qualitative and quantitative and include words that narrow or broaden your main topic. For example: Search for diabetes and pediatric and dialysis. To determine what research design was used in the articles the search produced, review the abstract and the methods section of the article. The author will provide a description of data collection using qualitative or quantitative methods. Systematic Reviews, Literature Reviews, and Metanalysis articles are good resources and provide a strong level of evidence but are not considered primary research articles. Therefore, they should not be included in this assignment.

While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and documentation of sources should be presented using APA formatting guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

This assignment uses a rubric. Please review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.
