Public Good

Based on the readings, pick a public good and discuss what makes it “public” through the lens of at least two theoretical frameworks discussed in the readings this week. Your answers should be at least 250 words in length and supported with compelling examples.

Stop Cyber Bullying

The intent of this assignment is to create a Public Service Announcement video that can be used in an appropriate venue. Some topics are more appropriate for children, adolescents, or adults. The intent of the video is to educate an audience on the need to respond differently to the identified crisis.

Most television PSAs are 15–20 seconds long. An example is the classic PSA of “This is your brain… this is your brain on drugs” with the image of an egg frying in a frying pan. However, for this assignment you are given 3 minutes. This video time period will allow you to accomplish the required elements noted on the grading rubric.

The first element is to identify the crisis and the affected population. This can be accomplished visually. For example, a video shot of a person’s Facebook page with words that reflect cyber bullying.

The second element is identifying the current prevalence of the crisis. This usually involves statistics. Again, this can be done visually, or with words at the bottom of the screen.

The third element is to identify the current community response. Again, this can be captured with an image, words, your original lyrics and music in a song playing in the background, etc.

The fourth element is to identify a healthier response to the identified crisis. This element can be captured with an image and/or a hotline number with the words, “Don’t ignore the signs…call now.” The elements really depends on how you want to create the video.

This is your PSA, so be creative. You can use a flip camera, video camera, computer camera, etc. to film your segments. You cannot use existing video footage, pictures, or other copyrighted materials from another source to create your video. Also, if you use children in the video, their identity must be concealed. For example, you can only see the back of the children, not their faces.

Topic for PSA is Suicide Prevention or Stop Cyber-Bullying.

Psychodynamic Psychotherapy

Assignment: Applying Current Literature to Clinical Practice

Literature in psychotherapy differs from other areas of clinical practice. Generally, there are no clinical trials in psychotherapy because it is often neither appropriate nor ethical to have controls in psychotherapy research. This sometimes makes it more difficult to translate research findings into practice. In your role, however, you must be able to synthesize current literature and apply it to your own clients. For this Assignment, you begin practicing this skill by examining current literature on psychodynamic therapy and considering how it might translate into your own clinical practice.

Learning Objective

· Evaluate the application of current literature to clinical practice

To prepare:

· Review and evaluate the psychodynamic therapy article attached in the file and reflect on the insights they provide.

The Assignment

In a 5- to 10-slide PowerPoint presentation, address the following:

· Provide an overview of the article you selected.

· What population is under consideration?

· What was the specific intervention that was used? Is this a new intervention or one that was already used?

· What were the author’s claims?

· Explain the findings/outcomes of the study in the article. Include whether this will translate into practice with your own clients. If so, how? If not, why?

· Explain whether the limitations of the study might impact your ability to use the findings/outcomes presented in the article. Support your position with evidence-based literature.

Note: The presentation should be 5-10 slides, not including the title and reference slides. Include presenter notes (no more than ½ page per slide) and use tables and/or diagrams where appropriate. Be sure to support your work with specific citations from the article you selected. Support your approach with evidence-based literature.

ENG mini essay

The Power of Words

Purpose: to write in-depth about one word or a phrase and how it develops a theme in one or two of the poems listed below. Your mini-essay will go into depth by using at least two detailed examples that illustrate how the word/phrase uses different levels of language – concrete and abstract – to convey a particular meaning.

Poems:

1- “Love in Place”

2- ”Review of the Sex Situation”

3- “Design”

4- “A Noiseless Patient Spider”

5- “We Real Cool”

6- “I’m Nobody! Who Are You?”

Examples:

How do the different definitions of “design” influence your understanding of Robert Frost’s “Design”?

How does the use of allusion with amphoras, vases, and pitchers, help develop the theme in “To Be of Use?”

What does “America” mean in any of the first five poems in the list above?

How does the repetition of “filament” help convey the central idea in “A Noiseless, Patient Spider”?

How do the uses of “Nobody” help develop a theme in “I’m Nobody”?

What contrasts develop the tone of “General Review of the Sex Situation?”

How does alliteration develop a tone or theme in “We Real Cool”?

Managing Talent: Can Yahoo Still Attract Tech Workers?

Introduction

This is generally one paragraph. The easiest way to explain this section is to think of it like a brief overview of the topics you will be discussing in your paper. The introductory paragraph is designed to set up the rest of the paper by offering your reader a glimpse of what is to come. The goal here is to grab your reader’s attention and make him/her want to read the rest of the paper. Type your paper in the third person (no I, my, we, you, our, your, etc.).

Review/Analysis of the Case

Answer to question #1 with supporting arguments in a minimum of one paragraph. Your response should be written in your own words, using your own thoughts, ideas, and opinions. Include information from the chapter reading assignment and the case study to help support your points. Be sure to let your reader know where you got your supporting information by including a citation afterward. An example of the first citation for your textbook is (Gerhart, Hollenbeck, Noe, & Wright, 2009). All subsequent citations of your textbook should end with the parenthetical citation as follows (Gerhart et al., 2009).

Answer to question #2 with supporting arguments should also be a minimum of one paragraph. Your response should be written in your own words, using your own thoughts, ideas, and opinions. Include information from the chapter reading assignment and the case study to help support your points. Be sure to let your reader know where you got your supporting information by including a citation afterward. An example of a citation for your textbook, after your first citation, is (Gerhart et al., 2009).

All subsequent questions should be addressed in a similar manner as the example questions above until all questions in the assignment have been answered fully.

Summary and Conclusions

This is generally one paragraph. The easiest way to explain this section is to think of it like a closure for the topics you discussed in your paper. The concluding paragraph is designed to wrap up the paper by offering your reader a review of what he/she just read. The goal here is to summarize your own responses to the case study questions, while at the same time providing your reader with some points to consider after reading the paper.
