Two songs that are covered during the first four lectures will be compared and contrasted. The songs must be chosen from the provided lists – one from list one and one from list 2 -and the paper should be no shorter than 3 pages (excluding bibliography). A bibliography must be included with proper citations for the songs themselves and at least 2 proper references.

PAPER EXPECTATIONS
- Follow the instructions.
- Make your ideas concise. Use as few words as you can to make your statements. This will allow you more room to develop your great ideas!
- Avoid repetition and redundancy of both ideas and words. This is the issue that I usually subtract the most points for, so take care.
- For example, when you edit your papers, make sure that you don’t say “Cool Herc is widely accepted as the originator of hip hop”, and then two sentences later, “As Cool Herc is the originator of hip hop…”. See how these two are the same idea? If the reader already has the information, repeating it just takes up space. Another thing to avoid is using the same word multiple times in quick succession. For example: “I found it exciting to listen to the this music. Eri B. has an exciting tone to his voice. When I hear how he flows when he strings words together, I feel excited.” See how ‘excitement’ occurs three times in three sentences? Here’s another more subtle example: “He used the turntable as a way to switch songs seamlessly, using the scratch method to cover up the different beats that were used in each song.” In this example, the word ‘use’ occurs three times in the same sentence! Because it’s a less emotional word, it might be harder to catch, but it’s just as problematic.
- I like to see ‘I’ statements. I find that turning the focus on yourself (especially when we are dealing with sensitive issues and incorporating personal experience, as I encourage) is a great way to avoid generalizing groups and ideas. If your statement is clearly from your perspective, then I as a reader can empathize with your position. If you use lots of ‘we as a generalized group of people act and feel this specific way’, it makes me wonder what research you’ve done, what data points you have, and how many people you have interviewed in order to have that knowledge.
- Going off of the previous expectation: BE SPECIFIC! If you do make a generalized statement about a situation, back it up with details. Show the research. Reference or quote the authors who initially made the observations and put their work into context. If you tell me that Cool Herc is largely agreed to be the originator of hip hop, tell me why and give examples.
- For example, something with detail and context would be: “Although Jamaican soundsystem culture is at the roots of hip hop, Cool Herc was the first to create tracks sourced from James Brown, using the funkier, harder beats that we’ve come to associate with hip hop today.” See how this gives specific details and context on either end of the statement that Cool Herc was the first person to make hip hop?
- Make sure you include proper internal references, and construct your bibliography following MLA format. In your paper, I like to see at least (Author, Date of Publication). For example: “Cool Herc is widely agreed to be the originator of hip hop(Babin 2020).” This tells me you got the information from the course modules recorded by Tommy Babin this year. You can also put a page number if you like, it’s not required by me, but do be consistent with whatever version you choose.
- Plagiarism – as you saw in the syllabus, we take plagiarism seriously. The turnitin grading tool is very good at spotting this. I have unfortunately had to deal with plagiarism issues in this class before. It’s never fun for anyone. I will catch you. It goes on your record forever. Don’t do it.

Boundaries Legislation and Malpractice in Nursing Learning Outcomes
Nursing HomeworksBoundaries Legislation and Malpractice in Nursing Learning Outcomes
1. Evaluate legislative standards.
2. Compare and contrast legislative standards applicable to professional nursing.
3. Analyze malpractice in professional nursing care.
4. Discuss the use of technology in clinical decision-making.
5. Demonstrate an understanding of professional nursing boundaries.
Introduction
Nursing practice has a set of guidelines that inform professional nurses. It is imperative that nurses practice within the scope of these guidelines as defined by the ANA. Failure to abide by the rules, regulations, and professional standards of nursing oftentimes lead to malpractice. This week you will evaluate legislative standards of professional nursing. You will also examine the steps taken by legislatures to determine malpractice. Finally, you will demonstrate an understanding of maintaining professional boundaries with your clinical team and your patients.
Legislative Standards in Professional Nursing.
Nursing is a very dynamic field. In that, the nursing profession is influenced by both nursing standards and legislative policies. As a professional nurse, it is important to note that not only are nurses practicing, but they are also becoming increasingly involved in political and legislative processes. Find a key legislative constituent in your state or region that is an RN/APN. (This is for your own personal knowledge/reference.)
For this discussion you may go the ANA Home page or any source (the source you choose must be valid and reliable [i.e., .gov, .org, etc.]) and find a piece of legislation that impacts nursing practice. As you write your discussion, provide information on the following:
• State whether or not the legislation passed or failed to pass. Provide an overview of why the legislation passed or failed to pass.
o If the legislation passed, what implication(s) might this legislation have for the future of professional nursing practice? (Base your answer on your research and/or reading.)
o If the legislation failed to pass, what are the factors surrounding the failure to pass? How can it be improved, so it can be passed? (Base your answer on your research and/or reading.)
Steps to Malpractice.
Malpractice is defined as a professional conduct that is misaligned with the nursing profession and causes verifiable harm to a patient. Malpractice is decided based on proof of intentional harm to a patient; this means that there are steps taken to decide proof of such injury. It is important to note that technology systems are now used in nursing to assist in clinical decision making and to minimize the risk of malpractice lawsuits.
For this discussion, find (by research or from experience) a case of malpractice.
• Briefly provide an overview of the case and then evaluate whether or not the alleged malpractice was in fact intentional negligence.
• Then, discuss how the precipitating event(s) could have/should have been handled to avoid the lawsuit.
• Include a discussion on how clinical decision support systems (CDSS), such as electronic medical record systems (EMRs), have impacted your practice.
• What is the overall influence of ethical principles, as it relates to malpractice? Provide a summary.
Professional Nursing Boundaries.
Boundaries in nursing relates to when nurses transgress professional nursing standards and ethics while providing care to patients. For example, a nurse accepting financial gifts from a patient as gratuity. Professional boundaries in nursing is a topic of much debate. Nurses must maintain boundaries in order to provide the most effective care to their patients. Although professional boundaries may be clear in some aspects, in others there still are ambiguities; especially when the aspect of ethics is not astutely followed.
Review the case study you read during Week Two in the “Health Promotion, Disease Prevention, and Illness: A Community Perspective” chapter of your textbook regarding the “5-day-old premature baby;” then read the “Words of Wisdom” associated with this case. In this assignment, analyze the ethical principles relating to nursing care, based on these and other readings for this week. Address the following items in your paper:
• Discuss the importance of professional boundaries in your practice.
• Highlight how you will or have utilized professional nursing boundaries in your practice. Give a one-to three-paragraph scenario.
• Highlight the key take-away from “Words of Wisdom.” How would it apply to your practice?
• Include a short paragraph indicating how professional nursing ethics would apply to the problem you identified in Week One (Phase 4 of 5).
• Conclude/summarize of your findings on professional nursing boundaries.
Your paper
• Must be two to four double-spaced pages in length (not including title and references pages) and formatted according to APA style
• Must include a separate title page with the following:
o Title of paper
o Student’s name
o Course name and number
o Instructor’s name
o Date submitted
• Must use at least three scholarly sources in addition to the course text.
• Must document all sources in APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
• Must include a separate references page that is formatted according to APA style.

View comments on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dIUo3STj6tw or do a search for updates on the Colony Collapse disorder (CCD). Then, answer the following questions (you may type the question number and then just the answer, but please use complete sentences, correct grammar and spelling.)
1. Outline what scientists have discovered so far that has shed light on the problem?
2. Explain the important connection between honeybees and the health of the ecosystems.
3. Think about the 6 principles of sustainable thinking, and then select two of the principles to come up with solutions to the problems of colony collapse disorder. (Hint — some examples are found in the video. Since everything is connected, the relationship between pesticides sprayed on the plants visited by the insects and the honeybees is an obvious connection to be investigated — and is the subject of current research).
