Should Texas raise the minimum wage, which currently is $7.25

Overview:

The W1, W2, and W3 assignments are on the same topic: Should Texas raise the minimum wage, which currently is $7.25.

 

W1 — Three sentences: one thesis sentence and two topic or reason sentences. You will not include any quotations in these three statements. 

W2 — Two body paragraphs: each body paragraph will begin with one of the topic sentences you identified in W1. The paragraph that follows the topic sentence will provide support for the statement. 

W3 — A complete four-paragraph essay: an introductory paragraph, two body paragraphs, and a conclusion.  

W1 Assignment

 

1. Read a few online articles on the assignment prompt: Should Texas raise its minimum wage?  (Some example articles are linked below.)

 

2. Take a stand: (Yes or No,) the minimum wage (should/should not) be raised in Texas.  Keep your thesis simple.

 

3. Decide on two clear reasons to support your thesis. Write your reasons as complete sentences, not as phrases and not as questions. (These reasons will become the topic sentences for your W2 paper.) A few examples of reasons on either side of the argument are included below. You do NOT need to use these: I simply want to provide you examples of a clear topic sentence.

 

Yes:

 

The minimum wage in Texas is low compared to many other states.

Increasing the minimum wage would reduce poverty.

Raising the minimum wage would increase worker productivity.

No:

 

Increasing the minimum wage would raise the prices of consumer goods.

Raising the minimum wage would hurt small businesses and could cause them to close.

Increasing the minimum wage would encourage companies to outsource jobs. 

4. Write your thesis and topic sentences, and label them as such. (See attached W1 template.)

 

Thesis sentence: (Do not include any reasons in this statement.Simply state whether or not you believe the minimum wage in Texas should be raised.)

Topic/Reasons sentence one: (Write your first topic/reason sentence)

Topic/Reason sentence two: (Write your second topic/reason sentence)

5. Save the document as a Word file with the following file name: YourLastName W1

 

6. Upload your thesis and topic sentences to the Dropbox in the W1 folder

 

A few resources on the topic are linked below. You are not required to use these and are encouraged to find additional online resources on your own. If these sites no longer are available, seek others to support your thesis.

 

These sources are listed in 8th ed. MLA; however, your references need to have a hanging indent (second line is indented) which I cannot do in D2L:

 

 Author. "Title." Web Site. Publisher of site, date of publication. URL. Date of Access.

W2 Assignment:

 

Do not submit this assignment until you have received your graded W1 assignment and read my comments.

 

1. Write two paragraphs that support the thesis you submitted in the W1 assignment. If you want or need to change or edit your thesis or topic sentences after reviewing the feedback you were given on your W1 assignment, you may do so.

 

2. Begin each body paragraph with an underlined topic sentence. The topic sentence is a clearly stated reason in support of your thesis. It cannot be a question or a quotation. Reminder: A topic/reason sentence has two jobs: to serve as a reason in support of your thesis, and to announce which reason will be discussed and supported in the body paragraph that follows. Again, each topic sentence should be a reason in support of your thesis, not simply an introduction to the paragraph. 

 

3. Following the topic sentence, provide support from your readings on the topic: you must use and cite at least two sources in W2, at least one source in each paragraph.*

 

4. Cite your sources using either MLA or APA style. Consult your course textbook or the online Purdue Owl if you need help citing and referencing a source in an academic paper. Please remember that the MLA Style Guide has been recently updated, and the examples on your textbook does not include the most recent changes.

 

5. Include a References (APA) or Works Cited (MLA) list after the second body paragraph.

 

6. Save the document as a Word file with the following file name: YourLastName W2

 

7. Upload your assignment to the Dropbox in the W2 folder

 

 

* References note:

 

Use a minimum of 2 authoritative, credible online sources to support your argument, at least 1 source in each body paragraph. Each quote should be introduced in the text: let the reader know in advance whom you are quoting and the context of the source. All sources are correctly cited in the text using parenthetical citations where needed, and each source is included in a Works Cited or Reference section at the end of the document, following either MLA or APA style guidelines (see course textbook) consistently. Do not cite sources in the body of the essay with Internet addresses (URLs), nor only use a URL for the reference at the end of the document.

 

 

 

W3 Assignment:

 

1. Read the Writing and Formatting Your Essay document attached to this folder. If you do not follow these guidelines, you will not receive a passing grade.

 

2. Read the Essay Grading Guidelines document attached to this folder.

4. Include the following:

 

Title for the essay

Introductory paragraph that ends in an underlined thesis statement

8-year-old black male

BACKGROUND

Tyrel is an 8-year-old black male who is brought in by his mother for a variety of psychiatric complaints. Shaquana, Tyrel’s mother, reports that Tyrel has been exhibiting a lot of worry and “nervousness” over the past 2 months. She states that she notices that he has been quite “keyed up” and spends a great deal of time worrying about “germs.” She states that he is constantly washing his hands because he feels as though he is going to get sick like he did a few weeks ago, which kept him both out of school and off the playground. He was also not able to see his father for two weekends because of being sick. Shaquana explains that although she and her ex-husband Desmond divorced about 2 years ago, their divorce was amicable and they both endeavor to see that Tyrel is well cared for. 

Shaquana reports that Tyrel is irritable at times and has also had some sleep disturbances (which she reports as “trouble staying asleep”). She reports that he has been more and more difficult to get to school as he has become nervous around his classmates. He has missed about 8 days over the course of the last 3 weeks. He has also stopped playing with his best friend from across the street. 

His mother reports that she feels “responsible” for his current symptoms. She explains that after he was sick with strep throat a few weeks ago, she encouraged him to be more careful about washing his hands after playing with other children, handling things that did not belong to him, and especially before eating. She continues by saying “maybe if I didn’t make such a big deal about it, he would not be obsessed with germs.” 

Per Shaquana, her pregnancy with Tyrel was uncomplicated, and Tyrel has met all developmental milestones on time. He has had an uneventful medical history and is current on all immunizations. 

OBJECTIVE

During your assessment of Tyrel, he seems cautious being around you. He warms a bit as you discuss school, his friends at school, and what he likes to do. He admits that he has been feeling “nervous” lately, but when you question him as to why, he simply shrugs his shoulders. 

When you discuss his handwashing with him, he tells you that “handwashing is the best way to keep from getting sick.” When you question him how many times a day he washes his hands, he again shrugs his shoulders. You can see that his bilateral hands are dry. Throughout your assessment, Tyrel reveals that he has been thinking of how dirty his hands are; and no matter how hard he tries to stop thinking about his “dirty” hands, he is unable to do so. He reports that he gets “really nervous” and “scared” that he will get sick, and that the only way to make himself feel better is to wash his hands. He reports that it does work for a while and that he feels “better” after he washes his hands, but then a little while later, he will begin thinking “did I wash my hands well enough? What if I missed an area?” He reports that he can feel himself getting more and more “scared” until he washes his hands again. 

MENTAL STATUS EXAM

Tyrel is alert and oriented to all spheres. Eye contact varies throughout the clinical interview. He reports his mood as “good,” admits to anxiety. Affect consistent to self-reported mood. He denies visual/auditory hallucinations. No overt delusional or paranoid thought processes were apparent. He denies suicidal ideation. 

Lab studies obtained from Tyrel’s pediatric nurse practitioner were all within normal parameters. An antistreptolysin O antibody titer was obtained for reasons you are unclear of, and this titer was shown to be above normal parameters. 

                                                         Decision Point One

BASED ON THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IN THE SCENARIO ABOVE, WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING DIAGNOSES WOULD THE PMHNP GIVE TO TYREL?

In your write-up of this case, be certain to link specific symptoms presented in the case to DSM–5 criteria to support your diagnosis.

 

                                 Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)

                                 Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

                                 Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Streptococcal Infections (“PANDAS”)

 ANSWER CHOSEN: Obsessive Compulsive Disorder 

                                                               Decision Point Two

BASED ON THE ABOVE IN FORMATION, SELECT YOUR NEXT ACTION. BE CERTAIN TO DISCUSS THE RATIONALE FOR YOUR DECISION.

         RESULTS OF DECISION POINT TWO

·  Client returns to clinic in four weeks

· Upon return to the clinic, Tyrel’s mother reported that he has had some  

  decrease in his symptoms. She states that the frequency of the handwashing 

  has decreased, and Tyrel seems a bit more “relaxed” overall.

·  She also reports that Tyrel has not fully embraced returning to school, but that  

  his attendance has improved. She reported that over this past weekend, Tyrel    

  went outside to play with his friend from across the street, which he has not  

 done in a while.

Guidance to Student 

In terms of an actual diagnosis, the child’s main symptoms are most consistent with obsessive-compulsive disorder. There may also be an element of social phobia developing, but at this point, the PMHNP has not assessed the nature of the school avoidance—that is, why is the child avoiding school. Notice that nothing in the scenario tells us that the PMHNP has assessed this.

Fluvoxamine immediate release is FDA-approved for the treatment of OCD in children aged 8 years and older. Fluvoxamine’s sigma-1 antagonist properties may cause sedation and as such, it should be dosed in the evening/bedtime.

At this point, it would be appropriate to consider increasing the bedtime dose, especially since the child is responding to the medication and there are no negative side effects.

Atypical antipsychotics are typically not used in the treatment of OCD. There is also nothing to tell us that an atypical antipsychotic would be necessary (e.g., no psychotic symptoms). Additionally, the child seems to be responding to the medication, so there is no rationale as to why an atypical antipsychotic would be added to the current regimen.

Cognitive behavioral therapy is the psychotherapy of choice for treating OCD. The PMHNP should augment medication therapy with CBT. If further assessment determines that Tyrel has social anxiety disorder, CBT is effective in treating this condition as well.
