This task relates to a sequence of assessments that will be repeated across Chapters 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10. Select any example of a visualisation or infographic, maybe your own work or that of others. The task is to undertake a deep, detailed ‘forensic’ like assessment of the design choices made across each of the five layers of the chosen visualisation’s anatomy. In each case your assessment is only concerned with one design layer at a time.
For this task, take a close look at the interactivity choices:

  1. Start by identifying all the interactive features deployed, listing them under the headers of either data or presentation adjustments
  2. How suitable are the choices and deployment of these interactive features? If they are not, what do you think they should have been?
  3. Go through the set of ‘Influencing factors’ from the latter section of the book’s chapter to help shape your assessment and to possibly inform how you might tackle this design layer differently
  4. Also, considering the range of potential interactive features and functions, what would you do differently or additionally?

Question Description

Assessment Instructions

Imagine your supervisor has asked you to conduct a lunch and learn session to educate your fellow nursing staff on pharmacological interventions.

PREPARATION

Select a disease or health condition that requires pharmacological intervention. You may choose any disease or health condition you wish, but the disease or health condition must be relevant to nurses from a variety of settings (for example: ER, pediatrics, public health, et cetera).

REQUIREMENTS

Once you have selected a disease or health condition, create a PowerPoint presentation you could use in your lunch and learn session, including the following:

  • Identify the disease or health condition you have chosen, along with the areas where nurses are likely to see it. (Do this in the agenda slide or next slide after the agenda.)
  • Identify the three drugs used most often in the treatment of the disease or health condition.
  • Explain the types of actions, side effects, indications, and contraindications that could be expected from the pharmacological treatment.
  • Describe the treatment regime most often prescribed for the disease or health condition. This should include pharmacology but not be limited to pharmacology.
  • Explain how the treatment regime (including pharmacology) may impact a client’s lifestyle. Consider things such as finances, ease or complexity of administration, instructions (frequency, duration), et cetera.
  • Describe how a nurse should monitor a client being treated for the disease or health condition in order to obtain a quality patient outcome.
  • Explain any controversies associated with the drugs used in the treatment. For example, is there a black box warning with any of the drugs?

Use the notes section of each slide to expand your points or draft your mock oral presentation (or both) and reference your resources. Use at least 3 peer-reviewed or professional resources to support your work in this assessment. Be sure your PowerPoint includes a title slide, a slide with your agenda or list of topics to be covered, and a reference slide. Follow current APA style and formatting guidelines for your citations and references.

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS

  • Number of slides: 10–12, not including the title and reference slides.
  • Be creative. Consider your intended audience.

COURSE: MDP 585 Decolonizing Development Assignment

● Assignment Part 1 = Of the writers studied in Week 1 (Guevara, Fanon, Said, wa Thiong’o, Memmi, Sartre, Charles), whose works and theories stand out to you and why? What are their key ideas, and how has the philosophy aged with time–still relevant? How is it reflected (or not) in the present world order and aid agenda? Reach beyond the materials provided in class.
Explore other theorists name-dropped in the readings and videos (i.e., Cesaire, Mudimbe, Achebe, Nkrumah), if no one is grabbing you/you need to shake it up. Compare/contrast for a richer understanding. 30%
● Assignment Part 2 = Now, take their theories and ideas, and apply them to a current issue or program in which you’ve worked/would like to work in the development sector. What is the connection? How would the concepts apply, solve, or work in opposition to the program or policy? How can your conclusion be supported? 30%
For example, how might Fanon (a trained psychiatrist) apply his understanding of “North African Syndrome” to community mental health/psychosocial programs in South Africa or DRC? Would Ngugi wa Thiong’o still think Fanon’s theory would hold, if applied to the Carter Center’s mental health program in Liberia–a country not colonized, per se, but founded by freed US slaves? How might Mark Charles reconcile faith-based philanthropists providing funding for Native American community development projects? Would Che Guevara approve of the Water is Life program methodology?
The possibilities are endless…. You just need to make it 8 pages, double-spaced, with a 12-point font. DUE MONDAY NOVEMBER 10, NOON. Please plan accordingly. No late papers. You do not need it hanging over your head for the winter break, and I have grading deadlines. Let’s do each other a solid, and keep to this schedule.

The MS PowerPoint presentation will include a report on existing metrics (organizational or HR) if any are present. If citations or Web site materials are used, in-text citations and sources presented on a References page using American Psychological Association (APA) format are expected. This information can be used in the final paper (the final assessment which is a plan to change the organization’s total rewards programs). It is expected that at least three references from the course materials will be used.
At the least, this MS PowerPoint Presentation will include:
1.    Academic Title Slide
2.    Introduction and Purpose for the Paper
3.    Description of the Organization
4.    Capabilities of the Organization and Requisite Competencies of the Employees
5.    Current and Future Challenges

As cited in our text, Rost (1991) noted that there are over 100 definitions of leadership in the literature specific to the topic of leadership. We have addressed several components of leadership, and there are a variety of terms used to refer to particular leadership styles. Now you will review these and build a personal working definition of leadership. As this is just the start of our course together, I hope you will refine your definition as we learn more about the topics, and you learn from each other in our discussions.
· List at least two leadership concepts that you feel are most important or most appealing to you, and what about each concept you find appealing. (10 points for at least two concepts and description of why appealing).
· Reflect on the leader you described in our discussion and provide an example of his or her skills to show which leadership aspects were demonstrated by this person. (10 points for alignment of the example with the leadership aspect demonstrated).
· Share which aspects of leadership you feel you use most often when you act in a leadership role. (10 points).
· In at least two to three sentences, share your working definition of leadership and why you think this definition is best as you plan to grow your leadership skills. (20 points).
I would recommend you paste your responses into Grammarly to help you with editing. I do this regularly, and it is a great help, even if you are a strong writer.

Describe at least two leadership concepts that you feel are most important, or most appealing to you and what about the concept you find appealing.
Ex: Relational leadership appeals to me because I feel communication is critical and I enjoy forming strong working relationships.
 
 
 
Reflect on the leader you described in our discussion and provide an example of his or her skills to show which leadership aspects were demonstrated by this person.
 
 
 
Share which aspects of leadership you feel you use most often when you act in a leadership role.
 
 
 
In at least two to three sentences share your working definition of leadership and why you think this definition is best as you plan to grow your own leadership skills.
