Writing Sample: What is Health Administration

Advances in technology are a double-edged sword in criminal justice. On one hand, new technologies can help criminal justice practitioners monitor and gain important information about suspects to prevent and solve deadly crimes. On the other hand, this type of surveillance can result in collateral damage when the privacy of innocent, law-abiding citizens is violated.

 

 

 

For this Assignment, consider how surveillance is used to monitor Internet activity. Think about the conflict between surveillance for public safety and violation of privacy. Does the end justify the means? 

 

 

 

The Assignment:

 

 

 

Use the Walden Library and the Internet to find examples of surveillance systems that focus on technology and the Internet.

 

 

 

Using the Walden Writing Center APA Course Paper Template, write a 3- to 5-page paper in which you do the following:

 

 

 

Describe how our day-to-day uses of the Internet are subject to surveillance.

 

 

 

Explain whether such surveillance measures are justified by claims that they are necessary for tackling cybercrime.

 

 

 

Explain whether citizens can trust states when it comes to citizen privacy.

 

 

 

Explain why the regulation of privacy-enhancing technologies such as encryption is so difficult to address.

 

 

 

Explain whether it is possible to meet the demands and needs of all social constituencies at the same time.

 

 

 

Support your Assignment with specific references to all resources used in its preparation. You are to provide a reference list for all resources, including those in the Learning Resources for this course.

Critical Thinking Assignment 

 

Research a health concern in Saudi Arabia. You must create a five- to six-page agenda, as a policy advisor, focusing on a health concern that needs either a national health policy or amendments to a current national health policy. An example of a health concern would be reducing the number of sugary beverages consumed by children. Do not use the sugary beverage example for your assignment. Be sure to include the cover and reference pages, using the readings, research, and your knowledge of health policy development.

 

Your paper should analyze the following substantive requirements:

 

• Identify a health concern.
• What data did you utilize to determine there was a health concern when developing the policy?
• If you used an existing policy, describe the evidence-based research policymakers used.
• If you are creating your own policy, be sure to indicate who will be responsible for implementing the policy.
• Ethical considerations in the policy development.

 

Your agenda should meet the following structural requirements:

 

• Be five to six pages in length, not including the cover or reference pages.
• Be formatted according to Saudi Electronic University and APA writing guidelines.
• Provide support for your statements with in-text citations from a minimum of six scholarly articles. Two of these sources may be from the class readings, textbook, or lectures, but four must be external.
• Utilize headings to organize the content in your work.
