CLC: Phase 2-Developing The Implementation Plan

This is a CLC assignment.

 

In Phase 2, your team will work together to develop a detailed description and implementation plan for the innovation you selected to pursue in Module 3. Each team member must research and describe a product development or management process, methodology, or model that could be utilized to implement the innovation. The group should select and use one of these models for developing its own implementation plan.

 

For this assignment, write a paper of 2,000-3,000 words that addresses the following:

 

  1. Finalize the name and include a one- or two-sentence description of the innovation.
  2. Describe the value the new product or service will provide to customers and describe the need it will meet.
  3. Utilizing the model selected by the team, create the detailed implementation plan for the innovation. Make sure the plan accounts for contingencies/risks in the implementation process and includes realistic timeframe and budgeting considerations.
  4. Use graphics such as organizational charts, process maps, and/or budget tables as appropriate to increase the readability and professional appeal of the plan.
  5. Include in-text citations from at least six secondary sources.  Each person on the team must contribute an article from the research that was completed on product development or management processes, methodologies, and/or models.

 

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

Describe the scope of the project and control measures.

This assignment consists of four (4) sections: a written project plan, a revised business requirements document, a project plan PowerPoint presentation, and the finalized project plan. You must submit the four (4) sections as separate files for the completion of this assignment. Label each file name according to the section of the assignment it is written for. Additionally, you may create and / or assume all necessary assumptions needed for the completion of this assignment.While taking all business and project parameters into consideration, make quality assumptions to support the following requirements.Section 1: Written Project Plan You are now in the final stage of the project plan development. All previous documentation should be combined into one (1) document that will serve as the statement of work for the project. Your goal is to have the project approved by the executive team. The project plan should be very detailed, which is appropriate to accomplish the monumental task of implementation; however, the executive team is only interested in a thirty (30) minute summation. Therefore, you also must create a compelling executive summary that is supported by your detail that convinces the executive team that it should move forward with your solution.Develop a thirty to forty (30-40) page project plan in which you:

 

  • Write a five to ten (5-10) page executive summary in which you provide a high-level technical overview of your project where you address the following: 

 

  1. Describe the scope of the project and control measures.
  2. Describe the goals and objectives of the project. 
  3. Give a detailed, realistically estimated cost analysis of the entire project, including technical resources (human capital) that may be needed to complete the project.
  4. Relate the value of the project plan solution to the competitive advantage that information technology will afford the organization.
  5. Provide all aspects of the information technology implementation into the project plan.
  6. Recommend solution providers who can assist with development and implementation. Include a cost analysis of at least three (3) providers.

 

  • Combine all previous documentation for Project Deliverables 1-5 in which you:

 

  1. Provide all aspects of the information technology implementation into the project plan. 
  2. Revise the documentation based on feedback from the earlier evaluation of the deliverable.

 

  • Use at least five (5) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources.

 

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

 

  • Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
  • Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.
  • Include charts or diagrams created in MS Visio and MS Project as appendix of the Word document. Make reference of these files in the body of the Word document. 

 

Section 2: Revised Business Requirements Document

 

  • Document all revisions made to the written project plan in the Document Control section of the business requirements document from Project Deliverable 2: Business Requirements. Note: This documentation must outline the revisions made to the previous deliverables required in Section 1: Written Project Plan.

 

Section 3: Project Plan PowerPoint Presentation

 

  • Additional to your detailed executive summary you must present your findings to the executive team and the venture capital group that along with the executive summary will convince the group that your solution is optimal.
  • Create a ten to fifteen (10-15) slide PowerPoint presentation in which you:

 

  1. Illustrate the concepts from the executive summary in Section 1 of this assignment. 
  2. Create bulleted speaking notes for your presentation to the executive board in the Notes section of the PowerPoint. Note: You may create or assume any fictitious names, data, or scenarios that have not been established in this assignment for a realistic flow of communication.
  3. Use a professional technically written style to graphically convey the information.

 

Section 4: Finalized Project Plan

 

  • Use Microsoft project to:

 

  1. Finalize your project plan from Project Deliverable 5: Network Infrastructure and Security to include all necessary changes in assumptions, tasks, and / or subtasks.

Describe the difference between a nursing practice problem and a medical practice problem.

PICOT is utilized by the health care community to identify and study a nursing or medical practice problem. Consequently, PICOT examples that may provide insight into the use of the PICOT process, may not be relevant to nursing practice as they are based on a medical practice problem.

 

Describe the difference between a nursing practice problem and a medical practice problem. Provide one example of each. Discuss why is it important to ensure your PICOT is based on a nursing practice problem.

“Laying The Foundation”

What conclusion(s) did you draw from step one (Laying the Foundation) (10 steps to successful strategic planning by Susan Barksdale) and why?  Can you correlate the need for strategic planning within your capstone project research and development (pandemic in a correctional setting)? As the reader, can you see the correlation between step one and an emergency plan?  Hypothetically, could you build your program without a set of priorities, goals, objectives, timeline, workforce, outcomes, mapping, commitment, and costs involved? Are all or part of the steps above listed in stage one of a strategic plan, and would they need to be addressed in an emergency plan? 

 

Stage one steps: defining the plan’s scope; identifying plans, outcomes, goals, and objectives; determining the timeframe for developing the plan; identifying key participants in developing the plan; mapping advocacy for the plan; gaining commitment for developing the plan; initiating the marketing of the plan.

Deliverable 4 – Code Of Ethics Intake Packet

Competency

 

Assess current legal and ethical principles and the application of such principles in healthcare practice.

 

Instructions

 

You have recently been promoted to Health Services Manager at Three Mountains Regional Hospital, a small hospital located in a mid-size city in the Midwest. Three Mountains is a general medical and surgical facility with 400 beds. Last year there were approximately 62,000 emergency visits and 15,000 admissions. More than 6,000 outpatient and 10,000 inpatient surgeries were performed.

 

Three Mountains was recently in the news after employee emails were published in which patients were discussed in very negative terms, although patient names were not used. The employees that sent these emails were fired. The CEO and the Board of Directors has tasked you with developing an intake packet for new patients that will reestablish patient trust in the facility, employees, and staff. The patient packet will address new patient concerns by including information about HIPAA, informed consent, a confidential health history report, and a living will. The new packet will also include the values of the organization and a code of ethics.

 

Your intake packet will start with the Hospital’s Code of Ethics that includes at least 10 ethical points. The code of ethics should include (at a minimum):

 

  • Patient relations
  • Physician activities
  • Billing for services
  • Political activities
  • Conflict of interest
  • Communication, including social media
  • Privacy

 

The Code of Ethics should be submitted in bullet format in a Word document with an introduction. APA formatting for the ethical points and proper grammar is required.

 

Upon completion of your code of ethics, please prepare a PowerPoint presentation (or other shareable Webware/software you prefer) with narration in which you explain each ethical point and its relevance in the healthcare industry with examples to the CEO, so that she can answer questions from the Board.

 

  1. The PowerPoint should have a minimum of 5 slides and a maximum of 12.
  2. Describe each ethical point in the Code of Ethics.
  3. Use the notes area on each slide as needed to expand on the key points.

Screencast-O-Matic is a site and program that can perform screen desk and audio capture up to 15 minutes for free, and can be utilized on a Windows or Mac computer. (Note: You can use another, similar program if you prefer. Screencast-O-Matic is only a suggestion). Make sure that both your voice and the PowerPoint slides are captured on the video.

 

Your audio presentation should include an introduction, a concise discussion of each slide, and a conclusion. The presentation should demonstrate your overall knowledge of the content, pronunciation of words, organization, proper recording, professionalism, and clarity.

 

Your presentation should be 10 minutes or less. Be sure to include the following:

 

  • Include a link to the location of your live video on the last slide of your PowerPoint presentation.
  • Make sure to use audience specific language and tone in your PowerPoint. Remember, you would be presenting this to the CEO of your facility.

 

Save both your Word document and PowerPoint presentation to a folder on your computer. Then zip or compress your folder. This resource from the Library and Learning Services offers help with zipping your folder. Upload the zipped folder to the assignment drop box.

Focus of the Final Project

 

As we’ve learned throughout the course, an educator’s job is not simply to train students to recall facts and/or parrot ideas. An educator must create an environment conducive to critical thinking, so that the classroom facilitates learning, not merely memorization and recitation. The Final Project is your opportunity to show that you have a deep and meaningful understanding of the concepts covered in this course in a way that is well suited to your intelligences and talents. You can produce a Word Document  or you can come up with your own way to demonstrate your understanding of the demands and implications of teaching and learning in higher education.

 

Instructions

 

In this course we have considered different learning styles and diverse student populations; explored effective pedagogical methods as well as protocol; assessment; and the scholarship of teaching. After watching the video “8 Things I Wish I Knew Before College,”  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wcQGXQEcTQ 

 

reflect on the Course Learning Outcomes:

 

  1. Analyze adult learning styles in developing effective instructional strategies.
  2. Identify effective pedagogical techniques in higher education teaching.
  3. Apply knowledge of protocol, assessment, and the scholarship of teaching to a diverse student population.

 

Apply your learning from the course to create “A Survival Guide” that addresses the letter (i.e., procedure and practice) and the spirit (i.e., theory and ethics) of teaching in a higher education setting. Feel free to creatively answer each question in a Word document. However you choose respond, be sure to provide access to your instructor by uploading all the necessary files. Although there is 5 page length requirement for this assignment to allow creative freedom, make sure that you have fully addressed the Week Six Grading Rubric requirements. Be sure to cite your sources appropriately both in-text and separate reference page in APA format as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.

 

Content Expectations:

 

  • Explain, with supporting research, the multiple learning styles for adults.
  • Describe at least five ways to implement effective pedagogical techniques in higher education teaching.
  • Summarize at least five tips for following protocol and giving assessments in higher education settings.
  • Discuss at least three methods for teaching to a diverse student population.

 

Written Communication:

 

  • Syntax and Mechanics: Exhibit meticulous use of grammar, spelling, organization, and usage throughout your submission.
  • Source Requirement: Reference at least four scholarly sources in addition to the course textbook in order to provide compelling evidence to support your ideas.
  • APA format: All in text citations, page format and references must be written in APA 6th edition format.

Do you believe that online retailers do enough to protect the privacy of their customers?

Hello, I have some Discussion Board that need some answers to. This assignment must be done by Tuesday August 27, 2019 no later than 8pm. By the way I need this assignment to be PLAGIARISM FREE & a spell check when completed. Make sure you read all  the instructions CAREFULLY. Now without further ado the instructions for the assignment are below (II, III, IV, V, VI, VIII):

 

 

 

I need a minimum of 200 word response for each Question. And make sure you leave another 100 words response on why your answer was appropriate for this question. 

 

 

 

1. Most of us have heard of or have experienced using Amazon (amazon.com) to purchase goods or services. What do you think Amazon’s customer value propositions are, and why? 

 

 

 

2. Most of us use our smartphones to access the Internet, take calls, text, and shop, among other activities. Why are smartphones sometimes considered to be a disruptive technology? Use an example to support your answer.

 

3. At some point, most of us have made a purchase online using our mobile device. Why do you think a mobile website or app from the same merchant needs different content or functionality from its main e-commerce website? 

 

 

 

4. Given the vastness of the Internet, e-commerce sites are breached daily, yet many choose not to report it. What are some of the steps a company can take to curtail cyber-criminal activity from within a business?

 

5. Do you agree with the practice of online marketers to use databases, data warehouses, data mining, and profiling technologies to identify exactly who the online customer is and what he or she wants? Why, or why not?

 

6. Do you believe that online retailers do enough to protect the privacy of their customers? Why, or why not?

Privacy And Data Protection Assessment

The Department of Administrative Services (DAS) provides a number of services to other departments in an Australian State Government. These services include HR and personnel management, payroll, contract tendering management, contractor management, and procurement. These services have all been provided from the Department’s own data centres.

 

As a result of a change in Government policy, DAS is moving to a “Shared Services” approach. This approach will mean that DAS will centralise a number of services for the whole of Government (WofG). The result of this move will be that each Department or Agency that runs one of these services for its own users, will be required to migrate its data to DAS so that it can be consolidated into one of the DAS centralised databases. DAS will then provide these consolidated services to all other Departments and Agencies within the Government.

 

Another Government policy mandates a “Cloud first” approach to the process of updating or acquiring software or services. Following these strategic policy changes from Government, DAS has decided to:

 

  • Purchase a HR and personnel management application from a US based company that provides a SaaS solution. 
    • The application will provide DAS with a HR suite that will provide a complete HR suite which will also include performance management. The application provider has advised that the company’s main database is located in a Cloud datacentre based in California in the United States, with a replica database located in a cloud datacentre in Dublin, Ireland. However, all data processing, configuration, maintenance, updates and feature releases are provided from the application provider’s processing centre in Bangalore, India.
    • Employee data will be uploaded from DAS daily at 12:00 AEST. This will be initially transferred to Bangalore in India for processing before being loaded into the main provider database in California.
    • Employees will be able to access their HR and Performance Management information through a link placed on the DAS intranet. Each employee will use their internal agency digital ID to authenticate to the HR and Performance management system. The internal digital ID is generated by each agency’s Active Directory instance and is used for internal authentication and authorisation.
  • Move the DAS payroll to a COTS (Commercial Off The Shelf) application that it will manage in a public cloud;

 

Tasks 

 

After your successful engagement to provide a security and privacy risk assessment for the DAS, you have again been engaged to consider some additional questions that DAS management has raised. 

 

Prepare a presentation for DAS Management using the TRA you recently completed on the security and privacy of employee data. Your presentation is to show:

 

  1. Discuss how the operational solution using an SaaS application, and the location(s) of the SaaS provider for HR management may affect the security posture of DAS. (20 marks)
  2. Explain if either the operational solution, or the operational location(s), or both, increase or mitigate the threats and risks identified for the security and privacy of employee data? (20 marks)
  3. Discuss the security and privacy implications for DAS of the data processing location? (20 marks)
  4. Discuss any issues of data sensitivity that you think should be considered with either the chosen solution or the storage/processing locations? (20 marks)
  5. Discuss any issues of data sovereignty that should be considered? (20 marks)

 

Your presentation is to be completed in either PowerPoint or Google slides. Your presentation must not exceed 25 slides of content. 

 

  • The presentation should be a maximum of 25 slides, including introduction, conclusions and recommendations.
  • Each slide should have speaking notes in the Notes section which expand on the information in the slide.
  • Images and quotations used in slides must be referenced on that slide.
  • The slide deck does require a reference list. References are to be included on a Reference list slide(s), but these are not counted as part of the slide deck limit.

 

Your presentation should highlight the significant points of your argument, but you should include the detail in the speaking notes section of your slides.
